Bachelor New Zealand - Jordan Mauger - Season 2 - Episode Discussion - *Sleuthing* - *Spoilers*- #2

^^ Wonder if someone chooses the color though. Anyone knows what color Naz, Erin and Fleur were wearing?

I remember those of us watching all said it was like Matilda the bride with her bridesmaids. Too funny.   That season was so obvious to so many though so it was just another clue.

No idea if the position is significant - usually in hindsight it may be but IA it is likely more about the clothing colors - however, Dani's dress wasn't actually as blue as on the show. It's almost like they changed the hue so it would be more obvious that Matilda stands out.

What I will be looking at more as a possible sign of F1 is who gets the rose first at the RC. Matilda got the first rose and IIRC quite a few F1s get the first rose at rose ceremony for F2.

They didn't show the girls RC dresses in the preview - just their heads seen and their shoulders bare so likely wearing strapless dresses.

I still think he chose Erin but I am also not convinced she is into him. He looked guilty when NAz's and Fleur's family talked about the girls getting hurt at the end. He sure is keeping his cards to his chest and I hope he is happy with his choice. IMHO of course

I'm not sure if that is significant either. Someone was trying to interpret the positions of the girls at the RC from episode 1, pointing that Naz had always been in the front line. But I personnaly think she was in the front line because she is quite short ...
I don't really pay attention to it to be honest ...

Before this episode I was thinking :
F1 Fleur
F2 Naz
F3 Erin

After watching the HTD I would say Fleur might be the next one to leave. I felt that her HTD was really awkward ... even though she is still on cloud nine (she even said it) ... I found that Jordan was really distant, and not feeling comfortable answering questions. Dad : Can you make our daughter happy? Jordan : "... I enjoyed my time with her ..." This was a very diplomatic answer.
Plus we got the confirmation that she went through hard times with her past relationship. Her BIL mentioning that she got hurt, that she's been taken advantage of ... Also it looks very cold between the two of them ...

With Erin I was surprised how well it went. There might be something between the two of them that hasn't really been shown on the episodes ...

I was surprised to see Naz and her sister in a countryside environment. To me they more look like "city girls" so I guess it was surprising. The HTD went ok with her sibling and her BIL. Naz obviously has the strongest physical connection with Jordan. They kissed, held hands, carried her in his arms. It was cute to see.

I'm still confused and not sure about who the F1 might be but from what I've seen in that episode I'm now seeing Fleur as F3. For the first time I saw Erin as a potential darkhorse ... imo

IA with you especially the bolded given that he gave Erin's mum a direct answer to her question about making her happy

Thanks all for the recap. I haven't watched the show since the F7. However I am still speculating based on y'all recaps. I am surprised Fleur's HTD wasn't as spectacular as Erin's....that's interesting. I also saw that Fleur posted a pic with her sis & brother-in-law with the hashtag 'sceptic brother-in-law'. Should be interesting if Fleur departs tonight as some of u think.

I noticed Fleur and J didnt even kiss!

Thanks for all the updates! Looking forward to the results of tonight.

Yes, I noticed he looked a bit guilty when Naz and Fleur's family talked about getting hurt Also Jordan seemed more at ease with Erin's family... all women, quite nurturing really.It was during this programme I was wondering if Jordan was regretting some of his prevoius eliminations, may be giving some others a bit more time. When I saw Naz and Fleur without all the fancy make up, lighting clothes I think a sense of reality entered the equation. In fact when Fleur and Jordan were at the restaurant he almost looked like he was tuning out due to Fleurs intensity. Whereas Erin glowed, as her friend suggested Erin can be awkward but I think Jordan can relate to that I actually felt a bit sorry for him as he was trying hard to communicate with the families but there did not seem to be much rapport. Art and Matilda's Dad were so engaging together it was such a cute interaction, so much so many commented on SM about Matildas Dad. Just looking at comments on SM {new articles} which I will post ( just got home and was so excited reading the posts) most are saying Naz and Fleur should go home which is a switch as Fleur has had a lot of SM support, not many have suggested Erin. IMO
As @AllAboutLove and others have suggested there does not seem to a grand love story, but I am thinking that is just Jordan.

I think he could have had a great relationship with Rebecca. He gave her the FIR, he raved about their time at Rainbow's End. If they got together in real life I think their relationship would have a better chance since Rebecca wasn't able to put herself out their in a group setting. The attention the press gave her thesis gave Jordan a reason to let her go JMO
