The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - MTP -LCD - FRC - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

I remember Molly saying somewhere she knew that it was too early when they packed her in the limo, and immediately felt ominous that it wasn't her. Someone else said the same- maybe Chantal?

I think they keep them away from clocks so they don't know for sure what time it is.

If jojo was familiar with the rules of the bachelor, wouldn't she know about the timing of the frc, too? She doesn't look like she's freaking out in any of the rc sc that I have seen.. Lauren on the other looks like she's going to pass out. imoaa

But many times in the past, in the final previews, they've show us the F2 more confident and F1 a nervous, tearful mess.

ETA:  I don't see that being a positive in favor of Jojo.  So far, there are far too many things in the Lauren as F1 category from all our sleuthing, even before you add the sun light, shadows and angles and photo numbers.    JMOAA.

Maybe Lauren was more vested in the outcome or fully realized the possibilities good and bad. Or maybe it was closer to sunset and the sun was in her eyes making her squint a little more.

We've heard in the past producers build the F2 up, make them think hey are a lock to win so they get the most dramatic rejection possible at FRC. Likewise, they whisper doubts to the F1 and make them feel insecure, so they get genuine shock and happiness at the proposal. That could also help explain Jo's confidence and Lauren's paranoia.

Eek! Can you imagine...

Producers to Jojo: Ok, Ben's waiting anxiously for you! You ready to go get your man?

Producers to Lauren: Ok Lauren, we have to hurry you along . It's getting dark and we still have to get someone else to the FRC .

Ugh, another promo

This is not a good preview:TPTB are just mean!
Wonder what the surprise is at the ATFR? Ben looks like he is going to throw up.

My guesses for the "suprise" are a redo proposal, wedding date, moving plans or he's going on DWTS.

Hype because we know that clip was from WTA and ATFR is live so not filmed yet. His surprise will probably be a wedding date? Anywho, it's going to be good news imo. Shows how they can edit to throw us off. But agree about Finale. It looks like it's going to be brutal to end one relationship.

The only thing I noticed was how much they played with color during preview - lightening up some (particularly Lauren's dress - it almost glows), shading/darkening some parts (particularly the limo scene we've already lightened), monotones, etc.  

There's not much new image wise to work with, I don't think, but will double check and grab anything SC worthy and get it posted later this afternoon.

Of course you are right! The look on Ben's face has to be from the WTA since they haven't filmed ATFR. It is going to be tough for Lauren to sit through the "how do you feel about him saying he loved Jojo."
