The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - Sleuthing - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*- #3

Yes Litta123 that's the one I meant.  Thank you!!!

So just rewatched the Spanish lesson from Ep5, and here's what I noticed:

- Both Jojo and Lauren are on the date, but we dont get any scene of Ben and Jojo telling each other sweet nothings in Spanish. Chances are all the girls had to do the same thing from what we've seen...

- We only see Caila, Becca and Emily telling him sweet nothings but we dont see his response

- In term of Ben telling the girls, we ONLY see him saying it to Jubs (part of the drama of that date), Olivia (part of the drama any date) and Lauren B. When he tells Lauren B he is looking very seriously and intensely into her eyes.

I know the spoiler can always be a foiler, but even for successful foilers like Chres, we could see (and a lot of sleuthers on this board, me not included , did) these types of moments with the actual F1. Why cut it if Jojo wins?

Agree… Also, why cut their first date if she was F1? I remember they also cut Beccas date on Chris season and then I thought that probably confirmed that she was not F1

Right? Even for a spoiler, there is a F1 love story if you look carefully... and we're looking

I thought they cut off parts of their date because of the weather? (what Ben said in his People blog.) so I don't see how that could be she's a hidden F1 IMO.

They could have showed a date as long as they did on screen with the other 1-1 using the helico scene and dinner scene + they could have included the casino deleted scene they released after.

Usually they show 15 minutes of the dates, give or take. They could have shown their time at the casino. IMO the cut their date short to leave more room for drama...

Yes true maybe they weren't allowed to film in the casino? Well guess we'll see!

They posted a scene after the show, if they werent allowed to show it they wouldnt have been able to. It was a fake out as the indeed were not allowed to film in the actual casino floor, but a lot of people seemed to like the scene, so it would have been easy to put it in.

If it would have been important to show more of the date IMO they easily could have had material to show…. They were surely together many hours.

Maybe TPTB felt that they had enough meat with the screen time they did give BenJo
( & I concur) that they didn't need to extend much more than what was given.

BenJo have a succinct & efficient way of communicating and they certainly don't dawdle with their physical chemistry & get right down to business in that regard. So IMO, it might take less screen time from them for TPTB to show us what they want to convey to us.

They didn't show JoJo's date because: they wanted to show more of Becca's date because that was her only date, they wanted to focus on twin date/Olivia breakdown IMO. *EDIT*
