Bachelor In Paradise - Australia - Season 3 - Media SM - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Vjeff wrote:Has Timm always been following Helena?

NOPE!  Nice pickup.  He must have added her last night or this morning - she's his second most recent follow.

Also interesting he was 100% at the wedding yesterday given how many tagged photos there are but is posting a photo at La Brisa in Bali today with a Sunday caption. Trying to throw people off the trail?

Yeah he was definitely there.  I think that throwback pic might be because he's too hungover to get out of bed but wanted to post something non-Bette.  Probably a happy memory pic IMO.  The Helena thing is interesting since she's not following him back.

ETA: Timm's friend Jackson just posted a day-after group shot of the boys from yesterday's wedding but NO TIMM.

Back to Fiji with him already then?

Abbie is definitely back IMO. Her social media outrage has picked back up and very reminiscent of before she went to FiJi. I would put $100 on a self elimination. Not ready to find love, still not healed yada yadda. What do we all think?

Totally!  She still thinks she's in with a shot at Lead IMO and for that to happen she needs to have deemed the Paradise suitors inadequate.  If she left because no one picked her that would make her look undesirable and therefore not Lead material.

So I wouldn't be at all surprised if she self-eliminated as a pre-emptive measure (though the look on her face if she got rejected by all would be priceless).  And what luck she got back just in time to make Matt and Chelsie's break up all about her.  

How often do they do eliminations in Paradise?  I'm thinking it's got to be twice a week at least?  12-13 episodes, 1-2 eliminations or departures every episode, 4-5 weeks of filming time.

They're going to need 3 couples for the finale and I really have no idea who I could see pairing up at this point other than Ciarran and Renee (and that could be scripted to go either way IMO).  

NEED PAP PICS!

I just HOPE she was eliminated... because she was rejected by Timm and she hopes to stir the pot IRL but I think she’s certainly
Eyeing the lead role, and will need to garner enough sympathy to gain points for a redemption story. The next few weeks will be interesting to watch.

Abbie can only hope to be the Lead. She is not a sweetheart. Ali season didn't rate very well and Ali has more followers than Abbie.

Unless TPTB want to go into the R rating territory than Abbie will be the one. But it will be the end of the franchise

The only way they could make Abbie work as Bachelorette, as far as ratings go, would be to try and turn the season into an overproduced farce, and I don't think they'd want to take that gamble. It would probably fail. As you say, she's not popular with the general audience so an Abbie season played straight would do worse than Ali's season and Ali's season did badly enough that it almost ended the Bachelorette's run. Nooo, thanks.

Yeah she's dreaming IMO.  I think if TPTB were considering Abbie, they would have reeled her in by now and told her to STFU and not go on constant rambling rants.  Her post-show antics are certainly a contrast to her "dignified silence" while the show was airing, when TPTB presumably had control of her SM.

Compare that with Timm who's SM still relatively locked down, tagged photos still not visible apart from one, only following a handful of new people, no sign of any shilling posts or ragging on the show, and he's still making dignified posts (throwback pics and stories of himself looking dapper in a tux at a wedding).  

Who knows what he's saying/doing in private but the fact that his public face is still squeaky clean makes me think if any F2s are being considered as Lead 2020 it's Timm not Abbie.  Or maybe he just hasn't had chance to get back to normal life yet if he's been in Fiji.  Will be interesting to see how it all unfolds...

Also just noting that Helena's posting about going to Mauritius this Wednesday.  I'm 99% sure she's out (if indeed she was actually in Fiji), but since she's the only Bach girl Timm's following I just want to make note, in case she's faking it and starts posting Mauritian pics which look like they could be throwbacks.

Found on a Bachie fan page on Facebook yesterday. Timm may be headed to Paradise.

@Aperry Gold star to you - Great catch!

I think Abbie was eliminated. Said it before and will say it again, Abbie was completely over the top liking, commenting, tagging etc the guys on IG and I wouldn’t be surprised if she slid into their dms and did so with multiple guys. The guys probably started swapping stories of Abbie being thirsty and trying to get with them ore-show (maybe trying to plan a faux relationship) and they were all turned off. They all saw how she was with Todd and talking about being the bachelorette. They’d hitch their wagon to someone else imo who wouldn’t make it all about herself like Abbie does. She’s OTT and very “me me me”. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a part of the show and the guys sharing stories of her dming them and so when she is eliminated her plan is foiled. Her behavior makes me think things definitely didn’t go according to her plan and I am good with that
