I am curious. May I ask why you feel that way based on the edit of the episode? TIA

I don't see Robby as F1 at all. He's either F2 or F3 IMO and either way I don't see him as next lead. I barely see how he is on F4 let alone F3. I don't get any connection either between them although he's saying things and kissing none of it seems real really? Feels very much like going through the motions on both sides to me. Odd.

I still think Jordan is F1 unless something happens. This episode JoJo seemed by far most interested in Jordan and always seems to be talking about her feelings for him and how he makes her feel. She was basically telling him to tell her he's in love with her and is chasing him hard. She also got defensive about Chsd threatening Jordan and cut Chad when he didn't deny it. Unless Jordan leaves or is F4 I can see him as F1. That season preview she was talking engagement ready to Jordan so it seems like she wants him to catch up to her feelings for him? He seems more guarded though so that's where I have doubt.

Chase I think could be F2/F3 same as Robby but with more of a heartbreak end since he had the hand on heart first episode and on his date. He didn't get much screentime this episode either and I have yet to see JoJo say how she feels about him the way she is with Jordan. He could be slow burn F1 especially if Jordan leaves but if Jordan stays I don't see it yet. If Luke is in F3 then I think could see Chase as possibly F1 if not Luke.

Luke I think is getting next bachelor edit. His intro seemed very next lead and then his single date was very much showcasing him as a catch with JoJo saying he would make an amazing husband. I thought maybe F1 but after that date I'm thinking more F4/F3 especially if Jordan is in F3. If he's in F3 then maybe F1 and more perfect than Ben?

Wish we had some s/caps to sleuth for whether Jordan or Luke go to Thailand.

Yes - about half way through Ben's season the girls brought up how much time he spent with Lauren. But do you think it's this obvious again? Surely TPTB would want to keep us guessing. Even if you weren't sleuthing and discussing the show like us it would be pretty obvious that she really fancies Jordan.

But yes, I think TPTB would have another obvious (*yawn*) season because it doesn't seem to affect ratings..and I think they would really like to do it if they put out a foiler. A foiler was so easy in Des' season because of how infatuated she was with Brooks. They had so much material to work with.

I have a feeling that they ALL had lots to say about Chad but for some reason they are showing lots of his PI's.  They usually try to keep F1 out of the drama though so maybe thats a clue that hes not it.  But On the other hand, With Evan an Nick being so obessed with Chad, them talking about steroid use, I didnt take all that seriously as they're so obsessed with him.... But when Jordan, whos been a professional athlete, and whos been around lots of athletes with his brother too.... He'd definitely be able to identify roid rage when he sees it, and so theyre including Jordans comments to give credence to the accusation.  PLus, with Chad centring his dislike(and IMO his jealousy) on Jordan, and him threatening to come after Jordan being probably the main reason Chad got sent home, I think tptb are just capitalizing on all the drama that they can while Chad is still around.  

northernviewer wrote:I agree nd4, plus wasnt it Jordan that responeded to Chad, when complaining about going on a group date, that thats what the shows all about, or something along those lines??  I think hes extremely realistic about the premise of the show and that he's a little hesitant a out embarassing himself by declaring an undying love so early on a reality show.  I find him well grounded and while some might take it as him being aloof, I see it as him treading lightly, constantly aware of the cameras and not wanting to centre himself out in a bad way.

I find alot of guys like that this season and outside of a few jetks left...shes got a really good group of guys!
