Bachelorette 17 - Katie Thurston - Aug 2 (HTD) - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

The Bachelorette: 1709 (8/2)

After an unexpected and heartbreaking departure before “hometowns,” Katie is nervous but excited to continue the journey with her three remaining men in New Mexico. With stakes at an all-time high and the pressure of meeting loved ones, she tries to balance falling in love with fairness – but keeping her emotions held close leads to a tense fallout with one of the guys. Can Katie patch things up enough to convince him (and herself) to stay, or is she ready to quit her journey for good? An all-new episode of “The Bachelorette” airs MONDAY, AUG. 2 (8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC. (TV-14, DL) Episodes can be viewed the next day on demand and on Hulu.

The three men who will vie for Katie’s heart are the following:
• Blake, 30, a wildlife manager from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
• Greg, 27, a marketing sales rep from Edison, N.J.
• Justin, 26, an investment sales consultant from Baltimore, Md.

I can't imagine they would end this episode with only one guy left.  Who would tune in for the last episode?

I wonder if he felt Katie pulling back - and that is what set him off.

Could be.  And iirc there's a preview of him saying it bothers him to see her kissing other guys, so that would fit.  in that scenario Greg seeks reassurance from Katie that he is the one, and she won't/can't give it.  If Greg knows the show--maybe he doesn't--he would know that often the Bachelorette DOES give her F1 a heads up.  Maybe that's why there's a lot of emphasis in the previews about Katie not saying ILY to anyone (yet).    So that if/when she does, it's a big deal.
