The Bachelor 20 - Ben Higgins - Episode 7 - Discussion - *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

Is it Monday yet? I want to see that date.

Ever since they first showed in a preview, earlier in the season, the courthouse steps talk at Indiana RC, where CH says, paraphrasing, what Ben is contemplating it would change everything, I've been sooooo curious whether\how that convo ties into info Kasha provided that Becca's family was told there would definitely be HTD, then she goes at F5 and no HTD. And the newest preview didn't give us any more clues about that.

I'm interested to see how this all plays out too. I've wondered if that dialogue has something to do with Becca as well. It's hard for me to see how it doesn't, unless it has something to do with the release of Emily prior to the RC. Do we know where/when he actually lets Emily go?

I believe he lets her go straight after she meets his parents

Perhaps Ben had the option for 4 HTD's if he wanted them and chose to send Becca home instead and/or chose Amanda with 2 kids over Becca.  Pursuing a woman with 2 kids would change the course of his life since there are 4 people involved as opposed to 2  JMO.

Can someone tell me where to find the pics of Lauren B and Ben kissing in front of the kids?

I don't see pics of it either..

The night portion of their date looked cute. I can see how there'd be more footage from the Youth Center with the two basketball players & all the kids.. compared to Ben & Jojo alone throwing baseballs, but I hope they didn't cut it out.

I was afraid of that, and they still might, but I remembered that they do have a shot of Ben and Lauren playing pool at Rex's in the first season preview so fingers crossed!

Ben could have been considering the possibility of 5 HTDs .. Yes .. That would change everything...

Do they typically mention the evening portion of all the dates in the summaries?

They did show Ben and Lauren in their black leather jackets in the preview. He was kissing the side of her face or something and she looked upset. I think those were the outfits they wore during the evening portion. I remember there was someone on IG who said Lauren was crying that night and some producer was comforting her. I wonder if it's still about the Leah thing or was she just sad because the date was over.

They posted a new preview of Becca and Ben on the group date if y'all haven't checked it out. Another blindside reference.

It's weird to me that she's saying "don't blindside me", when she's also pretty much saying "I don't feel like there's anything that distinguishes our relationship from the others and I'm scared because I'm not hearing the words back". It seemed to me that she already knew she was a MOT girl. It's definitely foreshadowing a dramatic exit though. JMO.
