With the others, maybe he's just responding to the moment. Or he's giving them to women who have percolated to the top of the list, where Bettina has been from the start (and therefore she doesn't "need" a date rose in his mind).

That, too, is a theory, and it could be wrong. But I believe the "protecting" that some people see is more characteristic of the way a woman thinks than the way a man usually does.

I think you're right, but I think guys can be protective too, maybe just in a different way compared to woman. Guys are all macho and "back off, don't touch my woman", but I'm not sure if this applies to this situation.

This is a neat picture that I captured that I had missed the first time I watched it. If I had not been capturing, I would have missed it ~ but Brad reaches back to hold onto Bettina's hand during the fun on the water:

Good one, Blondie!

Hate to be obtuse, but does this support F!, F2, or F3? Just in pattern? I realize arguments could be made for each one.

I am going to try to capture all romantic screencaps so that way I will stay neutral. I have to because I want to win a rose ceremony contest.

Blondie- did you catch the one just prior to this one when she's just gotten on the back of the waverunner and Brad reaches back and puts his hand on her leg?
Very tender telling moments that tell me more than Fleiss can hide with his editing tricks!

That's the one big thing going for her, the "stealth bachelorette" edit.

Oh yeah, make her sweat. Definately a producer move. Maximum drama.
