Leah made up the comment about Lauren B. She saw the connection and said she had to do what she needed to do to get his attention. She wanted to mess with his mind so he would have doubts about Lauren B's true intentions and it worked for alittle bit until he spent the private time with her and she continued to harp on it. I think he realized then that she was catty and insecure and she possibly made it up.


Good article about how they change wording on reality shows to tell the story they want to.

I didn't understand Leah's comment to Ben about Lauren B either. In fact, she told Ben that she didn't want to mention anyone by name & kept referring to Lauren B as "her" or "she." But it seemed as though Leah, saying Lauren B's name, was edited into the conversation even though we viewers never saw Leah saying Lauren B's name while talking to Ben.

And I agree, that scene were Olivia was standing alone in the distance while Ben approached Emily with the rose was indeed, ridiculous.

Not sure why she was so embarrassed.

I don't like that single mom with the annoying baby voice that sounds
like she's sucking on helium, I forget her name, can't stand her.
Her name is Amanda. She seems like a nice person, but her voice annoys me also. I can see why she reminded Olivia of Teen Mom.

I'm not sure if Leah made up the stuff about Lauren B. because we obviously don't see everything that goes on- just what the producers want us to see.

And I agree about Olivia. It was really cold to leave her alone like that...especially in that weather.

Cold? It was hilarious!!! Lol. Sorry but that whole thing was so obviously contrived. Eh, I can't keep harping on this fake show. It's so fake, so stupid, I'm just wasting my energy. Anyway, Olivia didn't seem that upset anyway, another indication that she was a plant. If I were Emily, I would've gleefully waved while they were leaving in the boat. Anyway, if the heavily edited "what happens next" is true, should be good. He actually says "I love you"? On air? Unheard of. And it looks like he pulls the ole switcheroo at the end, just like Jason Mesnick. Sweet!

I felt bad for Olivia! I don't care for Emily, so I probably would have laughed if it had been her instead.

The producers of the show need to stop outsmarting themselves by setting up fake conversations/situations like they did with Ben and Olivia. It would be better entertainment and more interesting if they allowed those on the show to be natural and not be asked to act out scenes as the producers want.

Have a feeling Ben was just calling someone in his family when they showed the preview of what happens at the end after he said goodbye to the last girl he let go. They made it appear he might change his mind but I doubt that's what happened - unless of course the producers got their mitts into that as well to create more fake drama.

Having the girls feed the swimming pigs looked a little dangerous, as some of them seemed aggressive (the pigs, not the girls). I'm sure the producers thought it would be funny, I just thought it was dumb.

Up your game Bachelor producers.

But Emily is in good shape, I'm sure Ben noticed that. Plus, he really hasn't had much of a change to get to know her as he has with some of the others. Going on the show with her sister set her back in my opinion. Wont be surprised if the twins end up on Bachelor in Paradise.

I don't think there's much to know about Emily. She doesn't seem very smart and her occupation was listed as "Twin." She shows no personality except for complaining about Olivia and calling her twin up to cry about something. She is useless. I agree with Olivia that she and Emily seem years apart in age.

Wasn't feeding 'hot dogs' to the pigs a bit much?

How convenient that the camera man was sitting in Ben's room when Leah showed up! The whole deal with Leah seemed contrived.

Also, it was out of character for Ben to take along the rose so he could mislead Olivia into thinking she was chosen and then dump her.
