Bachelorette New Zealand - Season 1 - Dr Lesina Nakhid-Schuster - Lily McManus - Episodes - *Sleuthing Spoilers *

When was ATFR filmed? Was it before Lesina started basically spoiling her ending or after?

I feel like she had started going rogue before filming.

In last nights episode, I did feel sorry for Lesina. The way she was having to vent to the person doing her hair. Imagine being forced to carry on when she was feeling so awful.

She should have expressed her reservations with the men from the start. She lacks in communication which needs to be a two-way street.

Definitely don’t disagree with that either. She was hard work from start to finish.

Any comments on how they are dressed? Lily in a black dress.

Let's get this show on the road!!!

My connection better not be acting up tonight!

We find Lesina miserable on the beach awaiting Aaron before the RC. She is happy they had the time during the overnight. She has decided she didn't want to take anyone to the FR. He looks thrilled...not. He is fighting back tears. They hug it out and he gives her a kiss on the forehead. She taught him a lot and he thanks her and walks off.

He is gutted and lies that he didn't see it coming. Please...she gave you plenty of hints. It sucks, but it taught him what he wants and needs from life. It will be all right.

Aaron surprised her throughout. He had a lot of stuff she was attracted to, but didn't see a long term with him. She apologizes and cries and tries to hold it together.

Alright. Well that was depressing. Let's get on with Lily and hopefully that will go better.

Commercial for AR Australia. I may have to watch that since I think the US version was suspended.

Jessie is ready for the FD ... not to be intimate ... because that wouldn't be fair to anyone ... but just to talk off camera because he has so much to say.

Lily is taking Jessie on helicopter ride. She wants to know if his fear of heights was real or just a way to get a pity rose the last time. OMG. She tells him the further you make it, the bigger the budget.  

Apparently his fear of heights has been conquered. They come to some vineyard for a tasting. He sees her as a friend with a romantic connection.

Meanwhile Richie is not happy that Jesse is out for the night with a woman he is interested in. He thinks despite everything between him and Jesse, they respect one another and are friends.

Jesse and Lily make out. He wants to lay everything out to Lily, but is nervous and isn't very articulate. She wants him to lay it out on the table, but she thinks he is holding back because he fears rejection.

Lily will be going with her gut, because both are good guys. She could make a case for either guy, but her gut will tell her...

Jesse is struggling to open up. He thinks it's because he hasn't had much relationship experience and is fearing rejection. He would give her his all to make this work.

Jesse accepts Lily's invitation to stay the night away from the cameras. She wants to see if he makes her feel more...which means he doesn't.

They are brushing their teeth and joking around in the morning. Just doesn't seem like there is any romance there.

Richie is very excited for his date. She literally throws herself at him to greet him. They go surfing and of course, she is good at it. They like one another.

It has been hard trusting these guys. Lily wonders if the things Richie says he wants are really the things he wants because her last partner and her were not on the same page about what they wanted and she really wants to be on the same page. Kids are mentioned...

Sitting around with candles and wine. It is all becoming real and the potential of not ending up with her really hit Richie yesterday.

Lily likes how her and Richie's relationship has progressed. She asks him if he has ever been in love before. He says no. He had to be the best he could be before he could be there for someone else in a relationship.

They are in some round yurt and she gives him the invite and naturally he would like to spend the night. So much more chemistry here. We do not see any of the morning after.

Boys are packing and want to spend more time with Lily. She is contemplating life and her decision on some hill looking over the ocean. Over comes Art for some sage advice. Hard to break someones heart, but then the other side is really happy. She knows who she wants to be with!!!

Primping begins from everyone. Guys make sure to get the name of the jeweler in the shot when they pick their ring. What no NZ version of Neil Lane?

Out steps Lily in her slinky dress and killer heels knowing who she wants.

Art is waiting for the first limo and outs steps Jessie. They flip between shots of the guys talking to Art and he sends them on his way.

Lily knows that that person she is about to choose is worth going through everything for. She knows!!!

Facing heartbreak...Jessie. I think he knows. He has been kind, patient, a beautiful man inside and out. Now it is not about him. He accepts that this wasn't meant to be and walks away like a man.

Lily hated that is having a cry with Art.

Jessie is all stoic in the car and says it is tough. He enjoyed her company and because she was so awesome he made himself express his feelings. She is way too special and he thinks they will remain friends.

Lily has found Richie to be someone who excited her throughout this process. She wasn't sure she wouldn't find anyone, but it has all been worth it because she wants him to be the one who will make her breakfast in the morning. He didn't think he would find someone like her. She throws away the rose, he psyches her out like he would get down on one knee and propose and they make out...repeatedly. He gives her the obligatory ring, but says it can mean whatever they want it to. He carries her away.

Hugs all around with Art and everyone is pleased as punch!!!

Tomorrow night at the AFTR...everyone to catch up. Jessie has no regrets about the tattoo. Liam explaining again about the girl he told he was in Hawaii. Mike questioning Lesina and Aaron seems to be throwing out a bomb shell...apparently he and Lesina have caught up several times since the show and if that isn't leading him on, he doesn't know what is....Well, that may be quite interesting....

Thanks @Sprite. Sounds like it played out exactly how we expected. I need to catch up (haven't even watched last night's episode yet!). Aaron's bombshell is intriguing and could definitely explain their erratic SM vibes (love hearts one minute, salty the next...)
