I totally think Deanna was being honest throughout the show, but that what she thought she wanted may not really be that simple. I think they were both surprised and caught off guard by their attraction to each other, because they are not what either one of them would have "put on paper". But I DO believe it is a love story and a romance, no matter how much I love Jason and Ty and will hate, hate, hate to see him hurt on Monday night.

The thing about the first night that I don't see mentioned much is that the only reason she gave him the first impression rose was because Jenni told her that he was a keeper (at least that's the way it was edited). It's not clear if Deanna would have even taken the time to talk to him if Jenni hadn't said that he was someone Deanna should get to know.

I think that the ringing Jenni endorsement (wasn't Jesse her favorite) was the first clue that we should have picked up that this guy was someone to watch.

She didn't say he was her favorite. She also picked Jason.

Hmm. Good to know. It's been so long that my memory's not too reliable, I guess.

That's interesting, though, that the final two are men that Jenni picked out that first night. She must know Deanna pretty well.

Just had a final thought about the edit this season. I believe someone mentioned that they had new editors during the Matt/Shayne season, and that's why it was made so obvious who the F1 was - so obvious that a lot of us were sure it couldn't be real. After having a season of so many naysayers about the F1, I wonder if the new editors were told to be sure to hide the F1 somewhat, so that it would be a surprise. Not having the experience the newbies messed up, were all about keeping the F1 a secret and went overboard - and in the end, led people astray once again. I still think De didn't choose either,at the FRC, but decided later who her F1 was. Guess we'll know in a day!

Jenni also picked Graham in that bunch of men.
She noted that he was well spoken also.

I have NO idea who she picks - I thought I knew, just from the look on her face but from all indications everything I "thought" I saw was fake. I'm just ready for it all to end.

De says several statements throughout each episode as clues to her choice. She states over and over again that she won't lead anyone on. She KNOWS how Jason is falling for her, so I can't even imagine that he isn't her F1. She said in one VO that she will know she has found the right one when she knows she can depend on him. She stated in another VO that she knows she can depend on JASON!

Her VO's for the FRC say she is making THE hardest decision. I think she is talking about the fact that she is choosing someone with a child and it will be a difficult decision.

Jesse is not for real man.

maybe this has been asked or answered, but I haven't seen it in the pages.....

the latest video clips of Jason professing his love (very heartfelt, btw) are being circulated. Now, why on earth would Fleiss put those on the air, if Jason is not final one..... you would think the edit would be more romantic Jesse stuff, and minimal Jason stuff? it's all so confusing....

Can someone tell me what happened to the Screencaps thread or where it is?
