Bachelor 26 - Clayton Echard - F1-F6 - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Just a compression of the fantasy suites for the f3. All from the info screencaps gave us.

Gabby got an atv and glorified tent.
Rachel helicopter tour of mountain in the snow, Perlan Observatory spinning rooftop dinner, and an Airbnb suite.
Susie got blue lagoon day portion, dinner in a luxury villa (unknown where night was suppose to end).

I know the producers have most of the control on the dates. But you can’t tell me one of these was more for f3 than the other two. Just saying if no finasco at the end I am pretty sure Gabby was set to be f3 with these fsd dates. Jmo.

Just some pricing of the fsd suites Gabby’s was about $315, Rachel’s $2,100, and the villa Susie’s dinner was in was also around $2,000 a night if they ended the night there which the might not have.

Without knowing Susie’s actual suite I say Rachel and Susie fsd are pretty even. Although I think Rachel’s dinner portion is probably the most romantic setting of any of these dates jmo.

@smg2587 thanks for recapping because I'm trying to sort out what your findings mean as far as Gabby's placement. When it looks like Susie leaves, on one hand it's makes sense she'd be the F3 next ette who left, like other F3s/lead, just like Andi Dorfman? Andi left after the FS on JPG seasons, so maybe Clayton convinces Susie to "talk more" in the FS, Clayton saying you have all the qualities, we don't know who he says that too. Maybe she reconsiders and returns as others have speculated.

But I don't think it would be Gabby F2 as the next ette. To me she hasn't had an ette edit or a F2 edit.

I see Susie in both of those edit's as well as JoJo who was also told ILY on Ben's season, F2 who went on to be the lead after viewers support of her.

I'm trying to decide if it was Clayton's or tptb decision to tell the F2 that he was intimate with both of them and in love with the one who left. I'm leaning toward tptb as they always want a dramatic finish to each season. I can see them whispering to Clayton that if he wants to leave with his F1, he has to come clean to all the women.

Rachel posted a throwback of her flying on IG the Sunset had already gone down in Florida when she posted the flying video.

She also posted this. Kiahna Campbell is

Clayton is the schedule guest on clickbait tomorrow. They either recorded yesterday or today. Interested to hear this since it’s the first interview with the new spoilers.

Also either Rachel is doing a good job playing things up or her and Clayton are talking. I for one wouldn’t think it’s impossible for someone play thing's up. And Rachel seems closer to the producers than say Gabby and on par with Susie. Just from the social media interactions I have seen. She is always responding with how much she misses the producers that leave comments under her post. I guess we will see soon. Jmo.

Can someone tell me who Rachel is a pilot for?

As much as I want it to be Rachel, I really think it will be Susie. In the one preview when he is holding the ring, he said something along the lines, but will she say yes. Susie is the only in previews that has mentioned issues if he is "intimate" with others.

Right now she is an instructor in Orlando. She seems to have finished her schooling this past summer (during the first episode her audition video she called herself a student at Ohio University still). The instructor job seems a way to get her air miles in before applying for the big airlines from what she said in the past.

Clayton seems to be doing media rounds in NYC right now. The Clickbait interview seems to be playing up to the new spoilers. Literally Joe asked Natasha and Deandra (who is guest hosting) after they get off with Clayton if they thought he was single or not. Waiting for the whole interview on YouTube to come up but this interview is one of the ones he seemed more down in but it also seem like this interview was done when he got to nyc, jmo.

Editing has certainly shown his strong chemistry with Rachel but we know that the F2 often is given the physical edit while the F1 has the emotional connection. I just hope Susie doesn't make rash decisions.

I can't watch the episodes, but from the youtube videos of the htds, Clayton said he has imagined proposing to Rachel, but with Susie he wasn't in love with her yet?  Seems to be a big gap between the two imo.  I guess that could change in a week or so

@Agent99 yes, he said a couple of times on the HTD's IIRC, he wasn't "there" yet with Susie or Serene? I can't recall exactly but I caught that and posted each time he said he wasn't there.

But wait another epi and he loves everyone.
