ARGUMENTATION

Guys up to this point I felt all the theories of a fake episode were wishful thinking (including mine).

BUT

I remember watching the promo, and having the distinct feeling that PJ was talking to RJ in the church scene. A detail that made me feel that was cathing a glimpse of RJ's ring. The scene is on the extended promo only, and is up only for a split second, but enough for the eye to pick up and leave an impression. At mark 0:19-0:20, RJ makes a dismissing motion with his left hand. It is worth noting that no such scene exists in the leaked episode. But it goes further than that.

I checked again, and I could see it clearly. Determined that I was only seeing what I wanted to see and not what was there, I asked a family member who has no idea of the show to check that scene for me and describe to me the hand they see on that video part. I did not ask them directly, cause I didn't want them to be suggested and just see something that wasn't there. After showing them the scene twice, they said: "I dunno, he has a ring?"

That was enough for me to go on and get a few different stills from the extended promo video, just to make sure it wasn't a strange light angle or a nail.

And here's the final result:

P.S. I had to include the pigeon, given that no matter what Sunday brings us, that little guy will always be one of the most memorable characters in the show.
