Bachelor Australia - Season 4 - Richie Strahan - S/Caps - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Oh my goodness, the editing might be crap but the editors seems to have done their job if I tented to confuse the audience. 

If y'all can match up those caps I applause you

Based on s/caps, if Olena is in Bali along with Alex, then I think Nikki may be in F3 based on her edit so far (there doesn't seem to be s/caps yet of anyone else in F3 yet and based on Sam F's season her F1 was not shown with s/caps for F3 in promos). Will need to wait to wait for more s/caps but I see Nikki over Faith or Rachael being in F3 and I can see Rachael as F4 potentially and her s/caps being HTD (with the camera) in Perth her hometown and her s/caps remind me of Heather's (who was the only one with HTD s/caps shown in the season preview).

If I had to guess I would think F3: Nikki, Olena, and Alex.

Interestingly, I read that Dave (from Sam's season) said he thinks those three are the F3 so I wonder if he knows something? (I say this not because of Richie telling him anything, but maybe the contestants telling him? Last year Dave told numerous people that Sash had won and it was posted on IG by many girls who met him before season finale). I think as long as they don't have official spoilers (that have proof) they can say without ramifications.

If the F3 are in fact Olena, Alex and Nikki, in afraid Richie will receive massive backlash for breaking any of the other 2 hearts! Regardless if it's Alex, Nikki and Olena is F1! Therefore I can't see this happening so Rachel should be up there too?

That`s not right. Sasha was shown skydiving in the promo videos. And it was his final date if I remember it right. Basically it´s the same if there is a lack of screencaps that can make you a potential F3 then it does not look good for the contestant. Last season it was Heather. Her screencaps in the promo didn`t show her beyond HTD and we know how that turned out. So I would say Nikki is "Heather" this season based on the lack of screencaps in the promo that show us that she will not make it beyond the HTD`s.

I don't know about anyone else but I have looked at that stupid bathtub picture 300 times and every time I change my mind between Olena and Alex. Currently thinking Alex and I refuse to look at it 301 times. That would be obsessive.

Regarding Sasha's FD s/caps. Just checked and Sasha's FD wasn't in season promos (before the season aired) but in season preview at end of Episode 1 ([You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]) and it was his FD skydiving in Sydney. Sasha's 2nd date was painting. His LCD (in NZ) was on the water.

So far there seems to be the following sleuthed/speculated:
Alex - F3/FD in Bali on ship
Olena - possibly F3/FD in Bali if s/caps of her hugging Richie are there
Rachael - possibly HTD in Perth with camera walking on beach

This means there is someone missing from the F4 with no s/caps in any of the promos (shown before the season airs) or previews (shown after the season airs). Based on this I think Nikki is likely to be in F4 and other than Rachael being a possibly HTD, Rachael doesn't have any SCs in Bali so she could be in F3 or be F4. With no s/cap evidence to show Rachael or Nikki in F3 until more s/caps so it's possible either one is.

^ I was just going to concur and I couldn't get on the site. Back now so I can. The Scaps of Sasha judging out of the plane were late and I distinctly remember thinking it was NZ but then we saw the logo on the plane. Wasn't more than 4 weeks from the finale. Can't wait to sleuth some more. I tend to agree though that Nikki will be the missing piece. There is a screencap of her with wavy hair talking to Richie. I think that this is either this weeks group date or Bali. It would fit perfectly with the 'I want all of you forever' comment IMO

thats too funny. Im guessing its Alex as part of the "steamy" date". I doubt he would take Olena again on another 1on 1 date so soon.

" it gets closer to finale, all the remaining Bachelorette's are hoping for one more single date, but only two will be so lucky this week." This is the description for Thursday 1 August for Foxtel. Rachel's date walking in the garden may be here. He would need to take someone else on a date. This may be Olena as we have S/C of her walking out of the Bach pad dressed up and the bamboo structure. I'm still wondering why they kept Rachel in saying to Olena "that means you come second at the end of this." They have cut that much out just Wondering if Rachel is F2 and the producers are flipping the bird at her.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I am in the minority camp that believes Rachel ends up as F2 as I just don't see Richie taking any of the girls he is heavily invested into that spot....he knows that Sam Frost deliberately spared him that spot as she said in interviews that she couldn't do that to Richie. The only way Richie lets Alex, Olena or Nikki go at F2 will be producer induced for major drama IMO.

Still missing any screen caps to confirm that Rachel made it to Bali...so just speculation for now

Fifty, Im wondering if all the woman who have left at this point would even consider Olena as F1 as per a surprised Faith stating she is a potential dark horse last night.  Nikki has also stated that Olena is a threat.

I was just thinking that it was very weird that when Rachel read out Olena's name for the SD and they were discussing that she was the first to have a SD, Rachel says "that means you must come 2nd or 3rd when this ends"  Did they keep that in as foreboding or did they keep it in to show everyone well No she is actually F1.  It was bizarre considering they have edited so much out that they left that in.

Oh by the way [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. You have your answer why they kept it because it was foreshadowing but not for Olena it was foreshadowing for Rachael. *IMO* The irony is that Rachael foreshadowed her own fate and not Olena`s. And in contrast to that of all things Olena is not the F2 *IMO* as Rachael said but the F1 *IMO*.

Sorry I didn't see your answer her [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I ended up asking the question again. I think the producers may very well be flipping the bird at Rachel with that comment. It was very catty.

All I can say is she better be wearing a bikini in that bath. This is not Game of Thrones!
