I was happy,when I saw your post JBF! I enjoy reading them!

Aww thanks! I may be missing a lot of stuff here though... AND misinterpreting some of it. We can always use multiple sets of Eagle Eyes.

I do have the feeling that Emily was zeroing in on Jef pretty early in the process.

I have been dying to find your post about the edit because they allow for me to connect so many more things throughout seasons when you point out similarities and differences. Love your perspective on this crazy show. So glad to find your posts and see that you are still posting strong! Kepp them coming!

Can't wait to see what connections are to come.

Oh Bloomers, you have a cute way with words...

Oh well, they sure are hitting us over the head with that storyline.

@Fleissmeister, March 26
@Millsy11374 just told me this is the hunkiest bunch of guys in the show's history!!!

As described in Entertainment Weekly among Chris Harrison's "ones to watch"...

Kalon McMahon: He makes a huge first impression, but the big story is, will it fade quickly? (Don't ask me what that "freudianism" means!)
Jef Holm: He’s not your typical 6’4” ripped bachelor. He’s an average-looking guy who will stun Emily with his personality and charm.
Doug Clerget: Muscles on top of muscles. He’s someone America will fall in love with.
Arie Luyendyk Jr.: It’s not like after Ricky died she never went to the track. The racing world is still a big part of her life.
Alesandro Goulart: He’s this Latin heartthrob who very easily works his charms on Emily
Ryan Bowers: Bowers is an ex-football player who owns a gym.

From what we are seeing in the edit, I agree with you, but that still doesn't account for such a late first 1-1 date.

Or maybe I am being too picky ... ;)

No you are not. Then again, Sean gets his that same week and he is also supposedly in the final 2. We will have to see how this plays out. It is not a "typical" season many here are programmed to.

First up, I am mighty curious about Emily’s expression when she shakes her head “no”, responding to Jef saying she gives “that look” to other guys. Oooooh… we simpletons watching are not permitted to see that one! Jump-cut to a later time in the conversation…[b]Another humorous edit that tickles me…

omg i noticed that too!! :Nod: thought it was just me!!!

When Jef gets the group rose, Chris may not necessarily be talking about him in his PI. No mention of “Jef”, but he mentions multiple group activities. His clothes are different, although the background setting matches one of Kalon’s and John Wolf’s… both appearing on several upcoming episodes."

Yep, I also noticed that and thought something was up!!!! Those sneaky people in editing always think they can pull the wool over our eyes......

I noticed that too! I also noticed that Emily put her hand on Jef's leg just before it cut away to another scene. It was only a split second but it makes you wonder what else we are missing out on seeing....

Yeah but it appears that Sean is the default F2. Any other F2 or even F3 in the history of this franchise could have got a late 5th epi 1on1 date.

Do you think Courtney and Arie know each other? Are they from the same city? giggling

You will probably think I'm a Looney Toon and, no, I am not ass-uming anything here, but...

I can't erase this peculiar feeling in the back of my mind that both Sean and Arie knew from the beginning they were destined for top 4 but not "the one". It is just a feeling I have... I fully expect to be proven wrong here. Chris may have been the last of the "innocents" to go (although the way he talks in that last episode indicates that he is "on to" Emily's schtick) and Fleiss wants to make sure there is no rage at the final rose ceremony like there may have been (careful with my words here... ta-ta-ta!) with Ben in Fiji. The fact that BOTH Sean and Jef get dates in week #5 smells pre-planned (same week as some Romeo & Juliet gig?)... just like the way they are pumping up Sean's role as the "perfect father figure" in the previews for both the season AND next week.

Hey! We just have to see Arie in Dollywood and other dates... and Sean with her too. We are getting plenty of make-out sessions here. Maybe Arie will be crying on screen. He may in fact fall head over heels in LUV with Emily and she in him. I'm game for him being a frontrunner. I may not be seeing "IT" right now like I am with Jef (or rather Emily hopping all over Jef and he looking pouty at rose ceremonies), but it is good to keep an open mind.

Jef is the most cautious finalist we have seen in ages. Emily is literally poking him with a stick. All of the "macho" guys are getting the early dates here... plus Arie. These are the ones viewers EXPECT her to wind up with, but those dates we saw already with Ryan and Joe, with both guys actually using the same lines of affection on camera and Emily practically sleepwalking through her PIs, were...

OK, I really like Ryan. He makes me laugh. The way he acts like baking cookies with her is like heaven... um... I was kinda struggling to keep a straight face. Do love the way his hands are all over Jef in that last ceremony as if to say "that gal is all yours, Buddy".
