some kind of decision will be made at FRC. I don't expect it to be a TBC at the AFRC. Even if she got a proposal and decided she needed time to think about it (ala Jen) which I really don't see happening.

I don't much care for the theory than Reid gets turned down 2x (also at the FRC), and then she picks him at the ATFR? If they've had no contact since May, that relationship is doomed to failure, IMO. Plus if Reid does return and 'confess' his love and/or proposes, that would seem almost cruel for Jillian to keep him hanging for 2 months...

how on earth does a guy go from not even being able to say the "L" word to a proposal in less than a week??? Totally ludicrous that TPTB think logical thinking people would believe this crap.

Also, she says she's happy, funnier, smarter...coupled with her "I really am an eskimo..."

Freedom has also said that Reid becomes F1 in a unique way...these puzzle peices all fit together IMO.

She said "I really am an eskimo"?! Well we know who think she's an eskimo! Isn't that kind of blatant to say since it so obviously points to a very over-the-top cute scene?

I have to ask a question, because I thought we got some info on how the finale was supposed to play out, but nobody seems to be bringing it up. Maybe it was a dream...

Back when we found out that taping was still going on, I thought we got an explanation (not sure who from) that this was pretty much what happened:
1. Jillian figured out which of the F2 was going to be her F1.
2. She met at the FRC podium with F2 to give him the bad news.
3. While she was passing the time in her room until it was time to meet with F1, she got a knock at her door, and it was somebody who wanted to propose to her.
4. She decided that she needed to give it some time, and further postponed her final decision.
5. She met with the guy who she was going to choose as F1 to tell him.
6. She spent more time with her final F2 (even though at the time this info came out, we didn't know the final F2 might not be the initial F2).
7. When she was ready, she chose between the F2 guys.

So did I dream this up? I think it fits in with the idea of Reid returning... But this is how I've thought it was supposed to happen for several weeks now.

If she ends up with Reid (and I think she does), would she give him the final rose or would she be shown with him once she rejects the final 2 at the RC? Ed still had a rose when he came back, but Reid was asked to leave rose-less. It seems to me that if it's Reid in the end, she will go to him once the FRC is over, which would probably be the last 5 minutes.

Yuh-hum yes she did...

Good point....maybe there is no FRC. Maybe the "funny twist" is Jillian going to find Reid instead of Reid showing up at the FRC.

THE FRC was filmed in May.... correct? the ATFR is yet to be filmed... correct? So what ever transpired since the filming wraped will more than likely be shown ATFR. Which in REAL TIME has been 2 months.

I still say they if TPTB want to have a "cliff-hanger" type FRC then let's do it ala Survivor style...where we have the fade in..into the staged area LIVE with the results!
