BACHELOR 22 - Arie Luyendyk Jr - Screencaps - **SPOILERS** - *SLEUTHING* DISCUSSION

@agentcurls, so, does your last post mean that Lauren B. is in the F3?!?!

^I think so.

the ex is in Peru possibly based on the thick stone pattern on the ground:

Here is a close-up of the stone pattern at Plaza de Armas:

Also, this license plate I believe is Peru. The red tint in the upper left corner is the Peru flag.

You had me convinced she wasn't in the F4 because of her edit, not even getting a full limo exit, etc. That would mean she's in the F2 because that date is an LCD.

Dallas - she could have the boyfriend with a southern twang though. ???

ETA: I put a close up of the license plate on page 2. Haven't had any luck finding the gate in the boyfriend scene yet though.

Kendall's hiking shoes from ep. 4. A match?

Definitely! Good find. I was looking for black sneakers, so skipped right over the hiking boots!

Lauren B. is in the F2? Wow!

Have we had an F1's LCD in the season preview? Last time I remember that was Des' season--Chris was all over the preview and we couldn't figure out the 3rd guy (Brooks) though we had the crying-on-the-blue-shirt-guy caps. Any Bachelor historians who remember other seasons? Otherwise, I'll check Nick and Ben's previews.

I'm starting to think that baby Beks gets the cut somewhere before FSDs.

We have caps for both LCDs this season unless this is the same girl and their date started in the town sq. Different umbrellas and coat on the girl. I can never remember which caps we get from season to season though.

ETA: @veg_out The girl's legs at Machu Picchu look skinnier to me, darker wash of jeans too. Machu Picchu girl is really petite, another reason it could be Lauren although Kendall may be just as skinny.

Town square in Cusco  (mystery girl??)

Macchu Piccu. A match?

bug's SC

So Lauren gets the Macchu Picchu date. Arie's outfits line up. We're sure that Machu Picchu is the LCD? Where are the FSDs--Italy?

I'll see if I can figure out the other person.

@veg_out FD and LCD are all in Peru. Here's why I think those 2 caps are LCDs. Arie is staying at a Marriott hotel in Cusco with his FRC suit on. The other dates which I assume are FD - 1. sand dune buggy ride 2. sand dune paraglider are about 500 miles away. No caps of the 3rd FD.

I believe Lauren B was shown in the season preview having her LCD at the Jamaican waterfall if memory serves me correctly (they went to the turtle cove for FD). Farmer Chris & Whitney were shown in Iowa (LCD - not sure?) Nick was shown with a mystery girl in the reindeer sleigh (LCD?)

Re: season preview -
In Bachelor seasons 19, 20, & 21 previews, F1 is rather prominently shown throughout (no drama sections of the preview)
I'd say Becca & Bekah are the prominent ones in season 22's, although we don't have any SCs of either one on FDs or LCDs. I'm thinking that's because there might not be any. So we might be able to guess that maybe only one of the Becks make it to F3, & we don't know if Kendall's sand dune buggy date is a FD or LCD, so that still leaves one of the F2 spots up for grabs....if that Manchu Piccu date is even a LCD?

I thought she could be F6-4 as a slower-burn and it might be significant that she is on this amazing Manchu Piccu date, (LCD??) however...

Her whole limo entrance and intro to Arie wasn't shown in entirety (very choppy & was lumped in with the other Lauren's) plus no reaction from Arie after intro, their interaction on night one was not shown,  she had one short ITM night one, she had no intro video, the ITMs so far have been mostly her having trepidation about some of the things they are doing on GDs (maybe that will change going forward and with thier upcoming 1:1) Plus, possible ex drama. I would be surprised if she was F1, but I guess it's not impossible. He seems to like her a lot and is trying to pull things out of her.

Night one though she was speaking to baby Bek about Chelsea "oh, that girl with the black dress?  the one who went first? she's going home tonight (haha)." Foreshadowing...

As VO has stated, if Lauren is the true F1 and it's not going well post-show, that could be one reason why we haven't been shown much of her...perhaps they don't want us too invested in a Lauren/Arie HEA.

Based on the bolded, this would be either Bekah or Becca. What do you think? She seems too short for Becca and legs a little big for tiny Beks but I'll see if I can find a S/C to compare.
ETA: That's if one of the Beks is F1 (or F2). If we just assume one of the Beks made it to F3, but got eliminated at F3, this would be Kendall (assuming Machu Picchu is Lauren)
