Rose Ceremony #6 Seattle, WA (7 to 4)
1-on-1: Marcus Shoberg. It was a “Wicked” themed date where they had to follow the yellow brick road to pick their adventure. Daisy, Kelsey, Charity, and Trista were all at different parts of the journey.
(SPOILER): Jenn’s date today in Seattle is Wicked/Wizard of Oz themed. Prob a cross promotion for Wicked movie coming out in Nov. Daisy and Kelsey are part of the date. pic.twitter.com/C6XiqYAYnj

(UPDATE): Another note from yesterday. After Pioneer Square, Jenn & Marcus went to Ella Bailey Park where Trista met them at the “end” of the Yellow Brick Road & they were supposed to take off in a hot air balloon. Reports are it was too windy, so they couldn’t take off. pic.twitter.com/Bfa5gd9kvP

Rose Ceremony Eliminations: Dylan Buckor or Spencer Conley, Grant Ellis, and Sam McKinney.
Rose Ceremony #7 Hometowns (4 to 3)
Marcus Shoberg. Filmed on April 26th in Tacoma, Washington.
A little backstory: Marcus lived in the Seattle area after the army. A lot of his army friends currently still live there. He does not have a great relationship with his parents who don’t live in Washington. So my guess is that’s why his hometown is being filmed there.

Jeremy Simon. Filmed on April 28th, in Connecticut.
Devin Strader. Filmed on April 30th in Houston, TX. Devin is part of Run Club and a lot of his friends joined as they went running. Jenn first met him at Buffalo Bayou Park, which is where this pic was taken.
Jonathon Johnson. Filmed May 2nd in Los Angeles, CA.
Rose Ceremony Elimination: Jeremy Simon.
Rose Ceremony #8 Overnight Dates – Hawaii (4 to 3)
When they arrive in Hawaii, Jenn has a sit down conversation with Molly Mesnick before the overnight dates begin.
I should have the order the overnights were filmed later on this season, but I know Devin’s was last.
Rose Ceremony Elimination: Jonathon Johnson.
Episode #9 – Men Tell All
Final Rose Ceremony: Hawaii (Devin Strader vs Marcus Stroberg)
These were taken of Marcus at the Fairmont Orchid Hotel the day before the final rose ceremony. Final rose ceremony was on May 16th.
(SPOILERS) I know spoilers have been scarce this season, but I can report that Marcus Shoberg is in the final 2 and had an evening dinner on the beach last night with Jenn. Here he was yesterday at the Fairmont Orchid before his date with her. pic.twitter.com/8TdycysrII

And here is Jenn moments before she got in a van and headed to the final rose ceremony.
(SPOILER): Final rose ceremony is today. Jenn is headed to the final rose ceremony location as we speak, which I’m told is at a house on the coast. This was taken of Jenn earlier today. pic.twitter.com/r6Ah5Pfw3f

The opening scene of episode 1 makes you think that Jenn leaves alone or rejects seemingly Devin (because of the off white jacket of the guy she’s talking to), but we know this show loves to pull editing tricks. Like last season, the first clip we saw on Joey’s first episode was him at the altar on final rose ceremony day, crying, one rose on the mantle, walking away, taking off his jacket, and making you think he left alone. Jenn didn’t leave alone.
Jenn is engaged to Devin.
Now, last season I had it wrong for 3 months before it changed. So there’s nothing I can really say to make anyone believe this is how the show ends. Based on all the information I’ve received this season since filming ended, this is what I’m reporting the ending to be. No answer I give on “how sure” I am will satisfy anyone who doesn’t want this to be the ending. So I don’t put any percentages on it or anything like that. It won’t matter. This is the info I have, so here you go.
As for Jenn’s promotion this season that something happens that’s never happened before, I don’t know what that is as of now. Took me all season to find it out for Joey’s season, so I’m guessing it won’t be til we get closer to the end that I hear about it. And when I do, I’ll let you know. I know the consensus seems to be that she proposes to Devin. Is it possible? Sure. I just don’t see it. What I do know is in that opening scene Monday where she’s telling Devin “I can’t let you propose to me,” there isn’t an ounce of sadness in her face or a tear in her eye. It’s almost like she’s about to follow it up with, “…because I want to choose you,” or “…until I give you the final rose.” Those are just guesses. Rewatch that scene in my livestream when I go over it tonight and I’ll include the video after I’m finished. You’ll see that her face doesn’t match up with what she’s saying. Unless she’s the most unemotive person ever, I can’t imagine you uttering that line to someone and not feeling some sort of sadness. There’s nothing in her face when she says it. That’s how I see it. Maybe you see it differently. Let me know what you think.
