On the book beside the rose.

Could someone quickly refresh what the significance of the Venezuela bracelet is?
I have only watched a very little bit of the show….

From what we can deduce, as it was never shown, on HTDs JP gave each of the four women a Venezuela bracelet. In one of the PIs of Clare we see her wearing it, but the PI was in relation to events that happened before HTs. I don't recall exactly what they were, it could have been events in Seoul. (I am sure someone will know). Some have speculated that the PI - same backdrop was also used in PIs for the other three women (Nikki, Rene and Andi) - was shot in LA after the show had wrapped. My personal opinion was they were filmed in Miami before the RC.

So if those PI's were done before the RC or right after….Clare had a big blemish coming out above her eyebrow and you see is during their FD ….so if she did do those PI's after the F3 RC the blemish would be there….take a closer look, I saw it immediately on my 62 inch HD TV, sorry to say it was a dozy…..LOL

Well well well! What a magnificent train wreck! It certainly was different and entertaining. I guess I feel a little sorry for everybody, except TPTB, who don't care about the outcome very much as long as people watch.
Looks like the SC stuff was mostly right, except the last minute speculation that Clare might dump JP.

Oh! One thing. JP definitely knew who his F1 was going into the LCDs and communicated that to production. The dates were structured with that in mind.

I never thought Clare was going to dump JP, she was too all in for that to happen, she was completely Bachelor bubble-wrapped even with those huge red flags.

This.

Yes, I agree.  I hope she feels a little vindicated now.

Thank you for the SC's analysis and sharing your observations.

As to the bolded, TPTB must be happy, they get what they wanted- the show is being talk about and a lot of reactions in social media.

Yes, and they demonstrated to any future Bachelors that they can take you down with the edit if you don't play ball.

Just for fun....

Yes, just pushing the show in an even flatter more infantile direction.
