Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - Episode 9 - July 24 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

If he'd played into the show format and been more like Bryan, wonder how he'd have been received. Would we have had two Baddies?  And would it have come down to who was the biggest baddy while still saying and giving Rachel what she needed.

Battle of the baddies!! I just speculated something similar in B's thread. Would have been so interesting! Oh well. Excited for tonight!!

Alanna wrote:@Aria, another awesome post!! Oy I crush on so many of our posters they're so many great thoughts. And I also think the reverse is true as well: if Peter truly wanted Rachel, he would have played along with the show format and done whatever it took to make sure the woman he was falling in love with (if not totally in love with her yet) and wanted post show wouldn't be the only Bachelorette to not get an engagement and experience crazy angst over this show. All imo.

I also doubt she cares at this point but she still has a show to make.

Ian absolutely did not want to get engaged. It was a recurrent theme through out Meredith's season. She was going to pick him regardless, but in the end he did propose because it meant so much to Meredith.

I respect Peter not liking the format of the show, but Rachel wants the engagement, so either play along to the format of the show you willingly applied for or go home. I don't admire that Peter has treated Rachel as if he was the lead and should be pursued by her. Then he gets nasty about Bryan anytime it seems that Bryan is giving her what she wants and making her happy.

JMO.

So. This is maybe why they have to change clothes before going to see the priest?

Great observation. This could account for the extra Peter outfit. Maybe he is gone at F3.

Looks like part of Peter's date is a hot air balloon ride.

It's quite sad to see at this stage in the process, Petey is still trying to make her work for him.  Why did she even bring him to F2, I would have cut him there and then.

Whenever Rachel is compared to Peter on how she was like on Nick's season, I disagree completely. Rachel was always vulnerable and real regarding her feelings to Nick. Peter is still playing hard to get, like he's some golden prize, and wanting Rachel to give in to him, instead of finding a way to compromise.

It's epi night! We're almost there! As always, threads are locked and all discussion takes place here so it's easier to follow.

Welcome to our guests who join us week after week.

@chrisbharrison and I agree. You will be shocked by Monday night's episode of #theBachelorette

All JMO

Peter being F3 won't even shock me. The only thing that will shock me is if Peter is/was F1   

Just to hype for nothing, I can see MF tweeting that and the only thing "shocking" is that it's another TBC episode
