The Daniel Haircut Timeline

Okay, forgive me if this was posted somewhere else.

In the real world, Yousef Abu-Taleb had a haircut on or before December 4.

On December 7 the test video was released, in which he still had long hair, and announced that he and Bree were going to listen to the forum.

On December 7-8 everybody chatted with GoodGollyHolly -- decided to go with Jonas.

On December 9, came the your decision video -- filmed when Yousef still had long hair! Therefore, this video was filmed almost a week earlier, without even knowing what the forum would decide regarding Jonas.

How is it fan interaction if the results of the fan behavior is already predetermined?

Or did they simply shoot two videos? One where the forum doesn't trust Jonas and Bree goes anyway. And one where the forum does trust Jonas so Daniel storms off? Interesting, either way.

I bet they filmed two scenarios, I was thinking they prolly did that ever since they announced that they were going to take our opinions into account. It really isn't practical for them not to run production ahead of schedule, because otherwise they would be paying the actors, etc for nothing while they wait around.

Actually, the more I think about this, they couldn't have filmed two different scenarios in the parking garage.

"The Test" was GoodGollyItsHolly would tell Jonas where to meet them. If the fans had voted no, then Jonas never would have showed up and Bree wouldn't have been able to find him.

Unless they filmed a completely different sequence of videos I think the writers definitely lied to us about the interactivity.

And while it wouldn't be surprising if it's the case, it's nevertheless disappointing.
