Bachelor 22 - Arie Luyendyk Jr - SM Media - *Sleuthing Spoilers* - #4

Norcalgal wrote:@Sprite I was so envious of you all in the unspoiled thread and SO PROUD of all of your sleuthing. I can only be that objective when I am unspoiled. Congratulations on a good job over there - hopefully more of us will join in the unspoiled for future seasons as it really is more fun. While most posters here were gushing about Becca from her first 1on1 date, you over there were proclaiming that you couldn't see the chemistry between her and Arie. That old adage of 'look at who the lead chases' provides the best clue as to whom they want.

And if ever there was a season to enjoy being unspoiled, this non-traditional ending is good reason. Whether part of the storyboard from the get-go or Arie-driven after the fact, it will make for good TV. And let's not forget that's why the show even exists - only for ratings selling ads (and contestants cashing in their growing contact lists post-show).

someone on Reddit said they heard Becca was the one, during filming, that  they had great chemistry. This is before RS spoiler. RS had Becca as f1, but IMO, Arie and Becca spoiled their own season.

For example, if we hadn't known about the switch (from RS or our own sleuthing), many of us would be speculating if she was in contact with Arie at the time.  Not to mention, we know Arie has been known to meet and correspond with potentials and hook ups via SM, so I found it funny.
