Cover Ricki’s eyes! Hide the puppets! It’s time for the bow-chicka-wow-wow of the overnight dates on The Bachelorette Season 8.

However, not only is Emily Maynard a single mom who probably doesn’t want to be seen in the fantasy suites with three guys, one after the other, the guys may end up backing off themselves. A healthy fear of Emily is part of this season’s theme. So it’s possible there will be no action at all.

TV Guide asked Chris Harrison if Emily struggles with whether to accept or decline the fantasy suite invitations on next week’s Episode 9.

“Of course there is an issue,” Chris says. “In this scenario, it's interesting because Emily is a mom so there's definitely a conversation about it. Things aren't going to get easier, and Emily's not going to get an easy out. From here on out it's Emily trying to choose a lifestyle, a father for Ricki and a great man and husband for herself. These guys get better each week and in my opinion she's narrowed it down to three phenomenal guys.”

Chris keeps hammering at the theme that Emily has three great guys and she can’t choose between them, but we’re still wondering specifically about the fantasy suites, since they are always the source of much interest and speculation. Just because you spend the night together, it doesn’t necessarily mean you have sex. Emily accepted Brad Womack’s fantasy suite invitation on The Bachelor Season 15, but Brad blogged about how it was nice to have the time to talk to the women in private.

What do you think Emily does? Does she accept any invitations? All invitations? Just to “talk” or to … take a test drive?
