Bachelorette 13 - Rachel Lindsay - Episode 8 - July 17 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

@flojo031 I actually disagree on the part of the post which says that Peter was the one she initially gravitated to.

If so, he would have got the FIR despite the make out session with Bryan. And he would have got the episode 5 date like most recent front runners and eventual f1s.

Peter meanwhile got the episode 2 date which from past seasons has been the slot for some f2s and also some future leads. These stats are not my opinion.

That tells me he was not the initial front runner but that it was bryan the minute geot out the limo.

Rachel and the producers had a good idea of the guys on night one imo.

On Nick's season, Rachel got the FIR but didn't get a date in episode 2. On Rachel's season, Bryan gets the FIR and didn't get a date in episode 2. Rachel finished F3 on Nick's season. On Des's season, the spoiled winner was actually F3. On Des's season, the one she had the sweet friendship with won. (She didn't show heavy making out until Chris was the only one left.) The one she was more steamy with (Drew) F2. Just some things I noticed that still give me hope. #TeamEric #ItsMiracleSeason

Usually they show previews of MTA, the last episode before MTA airs. The schedule is tight, if they are filming it the Friday before FDs. I guess they will work overtime that weekend to get the MTA clips ready for that preview.

Nice recap and I totally agree. This was just another piece of the sleuthing puzzle that put Peter anywhere but F1. It's like one of the first things I learned working in the financial institutions many years ago. If you follow the rules you'll always be right. If you follow the sleuthing patterns, you'll probably be right.

This season is a snoozefest for me. It feels like it has been on forever and I can't work up any enthusiasm for the final or the final couple....no matter who is F1. I am pretty much skimming through the threads. I think I may need to go unspoiled next season. The Aussie Bachelor is coming up and I have no idea of what is going on so that will be a preview.

JMO

ETA:  Even if it's all manufactured drama, the F1 has to have some kind of obstacle to cover come, IMO.  

And let's not forget Dean's hometown date - that the producers took advantage of a painful situation irritates me. Doubt that Dean thought he'd make it that far so he didn't have a worry when he signed the contract. And Eric's family visit will be a breath of fresh air - joyful. No wonder Rachel likes him - we all can use more happiness in our lives!

Dean posted a new Insta asking BN not to criticize his dad for his appearance (i.e. the turban) or his beliefs related to his Sikh faith. Dean states that when he calls his dad "eccentric," it is for reasons unrelated to his dad's religion.

I feel like this is an important episode or something.
Out of four promos posts on IG, we have two related to Bryan's hometown date.
Bryan post a super excited post on IG
Rachel liked their kissing pic on IG (among others).
They will be doing a live Q&A with Rachel tonight.

What is going to happen tonight?
