Maybe I am the only one that sees a dark spot...this was from BlackHalo's post




I knew after I made that remark people would think I was nuts....but who cares!

I am not, I just made a slow mo in a copy that I think we can see more detail so am going through it now.

My philosophy is people who think they are 'nuts' most certainly never are
I too see a dark spot. But to me, the way Mikaela is holding her hands signifies she is holding something of value to her. And whatever this is has maybe caused her to cry inconsolably. Of course I could well be wrong !
I am interested to know how meeting the parents pans out in the Canadian bachelor/ette franchise. In Australia whoever of the final 2 have a grilling and most uncomfortable meet with the family - that makes them the winner.

In bachcan season 1 with Brad, it was the F2 that had the grilling. In Bachcan 2 with Tim, it was the F1. In bette canada 1, IMO it was the F1. Who knows though, maybe it has absolutely NOTHING to do with MTP and it could have everything to do with Chris letting Mikaela go early as Brad did with his F2 in season 1. Just thoughts.

FWIW, Amber definately wasn't crazy in saying that. IMO, it matters that we don't stop sleuthing. That is why all of us SHOULD be here for and not to make fun of each other and our views. That really makes the whole thing silly IMO.

OH well, back to the show. I am in the process right now of going over that silly voice over. IMO part of it could be taken from their date in epi 2 where she was saying that she needed to know more about Chris cause right now she's not ready to get engaged, and the other part of saying I'm leaving could be from Dee. IMO, epi 3 she left and I thought I heard something earily similiar to that in her ITM so going back to it.

@HEA, what I was saying with night one though....normally the F1 gets alone time WITHOUT others around.  Bianka had it season 1, April season 2, Kevin had his alone in season 1 of the bette.  Lyndsey was the only one to be taken aside WELL away from the others.  Mikaela was right behind the group of girls talking and looking right at them.  In that way, yea Lyndsey had the spotlight on her from night one and not the others INCLUDING Mikaela.  On night one, Chris never laid out his editing or storyline with Mikaela, yet we were outlined by Chris with regards to his storyline / editing with Lyndsey which AGAIN is a F1 edit. Bianka, April both had that spotlight put on their storylines there.  So far right up to and including Epi 6, anytime that Chris and Lyndsey were together, that storyline/edit continued.  We have been given clues as to how Chris is going to try to put it aside as he wants to be all in with Lyndsey - said in epi 5.  Even though we were seeing Mikaela on the golf date in epi 4, as of epi 6, we STILL don't know what their storyline together is.  When in epi 6 that Chris thought he hadn't given enough weight to Mikaela when she said that she was falling for him, they resolved that in one epi, That IMO isn't a F1 edit.

Thank you so much for you quick answer Aunties_Love. Mikaela crying could well be unrelated to MTP. I was just wondering if there was a pattern to meeting the family. In Australia it has become so obvious the person who has the terrible family meet wins.
In the last Aussie bachelor the producers diced and sliced sentences to fool the public. I am wiser now and know how the editing works.
I am making my prediction the final 2 will be Mikaela and Lyndsey

You are welcome Talk about splicing and dicing....that's been happening to most of Lyndsey and Chris's time together. Epi 5 was an extreme example of that.

Could Mikaela be holding the promise ring she gave to Chris in first episode?

Does anyone remember, did she give it to Chris in a ring box?? I ask cause that's not a bad idea @Llamajenny. If so, then IMO he gave it back to her when he let her go early before the FRC maybe??

i see what you see now

it is her dress when she put her hand together.
I made the SC in action but I will make another one to show you
you can also see it in the season teaser. ;)

I also think that Mik's crying is related to MTP. I think during the visit Chris' mom tells her that he isn't ready to let her/anyone in yet. He is not ready & he is scared to love. The news is devastating to Mik hence the sobbing. She has a decision to make --stick around and wait for him or go home --
We hear Chris crying to his mom about being scared to love &yet wanting her in his life & mom telling him not be scared etc... We then hear Chris' VO saying he hopes its not too late.....to me its feels like he might be worried that Mik might have decided to leave ... that would be the drama that Noah alluded to regarding the rest of the episodes. imo
I don't see anything pointing to Chris letting Mik go before FRC. As far as I'm concerned, his relationship is the only viable one. In epi.6 he defined their relationship as having one side that's playful/joking (almost like best friends) and the other side being romantic. He said he felt lucky that Mik was falling in love with him and that he could see himself falling in love with her and he had never felt like that before (*note in interviews he said he had never being really love before)
Mik has been highlighted right from the beginning & he has been talking about their relationship progressing. Listen to what he says to when handing her the GD & SQT rose (btw, Mik is the only one to to get a GD rose in group setting and GD SQT) and compare that to what he says to Lyn. He sure finds Lyn attractive but he doesn't express much about a relationship with her. So far I haven't seen them talking about a future together or him talking about them as a unit -
If anything I can see him sending Lyn home early to spare her .... I think as of now Lyn is way more into him . AJMO
