"THE BACHELOR" - "Episode1707" -- The pressure mounts as the crucial hometown dates loom, but first Sean and the remaining six bachelorettes travel to the beautiful Caribbean island of St. Croix. One woman boldly decides to reveal a shocking fact about her past on a one-on-one date with Sean, even as she fears it might ruin their relationship. Another bachelorette goes toe-to-toe with The Bachelor about the tension surrounding them, and she pulls out all the stops by declaring her love for him. And still another woman makes a crucial decision not to tell him she is falling in love with him. Sean invites his sister to St. Croix to help him sort through his feelings, and once he does, he drops two bombshells, leaving four women who will take him home to meet their families, on "The Bachelor," MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET). Chris Harrison hosts.

I also put this in the General Blog thread:

Sean’s sister Shay shows up in St. Croix to talk with Sean. Shay doesn’t meet any of the women as far as I know, but, Shay’s birthday is Oct. 25th, and that was the day of the rose ceremony in St. Croix, so Sean had her flown out for her birthday. The day of the rose ceremony is the day that Tierra has her meltdown and basically Sean sends her packing before the rose ceremony ever takes place.

My Guesses:

Shocking fact about past: Ashlee and her first marriage
Tension: Tierra
Crucial Decision: Lesley - this is probably why she doesn't get a HTD

2 Bombshells: Tierra is probably involved with one...sounds like he will eliminate her before the rose ceremony. The other probably isn't nearly as big of deal as it sounds.

I think you could be right with these! Two bombshells is probably letting Tierra and Lesley go. Lesley will probably be a bombshell to people especially if she is the one with the crucial decision to not tell him she is falling in love with him then getting eliminated.

I kind of think it is the same thing although I know some would always be doubtful if he didn't do the eliminating.

Personally, I see Sean as a level headed, easy going type of guy who hates drama. Tierra pulls the hysterics one too many times and he sees she is too high maintenance and dumps her. Conversly, if she leaves on her own, it is because she sees the writing on the wall and to save face, eliminates herself. Either way, I'm just happy she is gone.
