The Bachelorette

In the season premiere, 25 eligible men — including a real estate investor, a lawyer, a TV weatherman and an entertainment wrestler — arrive from all over the country to try and win Ali's heart. Each is more handsome than the next, with standout personalities, and nothing can prepare Ali for the stunts the guys will go as they try to win her attention: one outdoorsman literally tries to reel her in, a hunky skier does a death-defying back flip off the limo and one man even gets down on one knee and proposes.

Inside the mansion, the men are blown away about how incredibly gorgeous Ali looks in her slinky black dress — and the battle of the bachelors begins, as each tries to make the best first impression on the stunning Bachelorette.

From heating up Hollywood and sizzling on a Malibu beach to getting steamy in Las Vegas, this week's dates have the 17 remaining bachelors dreaming of finding true love with Ali. Once at the mansion, they quickly learn that roses will be at stake on the one group date and two individual dates with Ali. The competition is further revved up when the men learn that not all of them will get dates before the next rose ceremony, so the bachelors must take advantage of every opportunity to score points with the Bachelorette. After careful deliberation, Ali must eliminate three men, as she tries to make her fairytale come true.

Ali invites one man to take a leap of faith with her on a daredevil date, tightrope walking across two skyscrapers in downtown Los Angeles. Then nine men are treated to a private concert by the Barenaked Ladies, only to find out that they'll be the stars of the band's new music video. One obsessed bachelor sneaks out on the rest of the men to claim some alone time with Ali. And a shy guy goes on an intimate barbeque with the Bachelorette, which ends in the hot tub. Can he handle a situation that the other men would die to be in? Finally, one man's sly secret is revealed right before the tension-filled rose ceremony, but Ali will decide some of the good guys are just not right for her and send them home.

The Big Apple rolls out the red carpet, as the remaining 11 men begin an exciting trip around the world to capture Ali's heart. The Bachelorette arrives in New York City before the guys to participate in a fun, fabulous makeover and photo shoot for InStyle magazine. Kasey and Ali then share a special day in New York, beginning with a panoramic helicopter tour and ending with a giddy late night date at the Museum of Natural History. Seven eager bachelors hit the bright lights of Broadway, auditioning on stage at the hit musical The Lion King for alone time with Ali and for the extraordinary opportunity to perform with her that night in the Tony Award--winning show. Despite falling ill, Ali and Chris L. still manage to have a romantic date, topped off by a special performance by singer-songwriter Joshua Radin and the Harlem Boys Choir. Kasey slips out of the men's suite, mysteriously returning with a bandage on his wrist. What happened to him?

Iceland plays host to Ali and the narrowing field of nine enthusiastic bachelors, who are traveling around the world in an attempt to be the last man standing with the Bachelorette. The winner of a poetry contest to woo Ali gets to spend the day exploring Reykjavik with her. This sincere bachelor shares some life-altering circumstances with her that changed his outlook on life. The dreaded two-on-one date pits Justin and Kasey -- two bachelors who loathe each other -- as they and Ali swoop down in a helicopter across the famed, active Eyjafallajokul Volcano that caused massive travel tremors around the world. Vying for Ali's attention, six other adventurous bachelors spend a jaw-dropping day in the Icelandic wilderness which culminates at the famed Blue Lagoon, a geothermal volcanic spa where the group strips down and heads toward a steamy and passionate evening. The men anxiously eye one another as Ali gives out her remaining roses, and they sense that this is make-or-break time.

Romantic adventures await the final seven bachelors as they and Ali arrive in Istanbul, Turkey. But first, Chris Harrison shares a shocking revelation with Ali —Justin's carefully guarded secret is out: He has a girlfriend at home. And Ali, who is hurt and angry, won't let him get away with his deceitful behavior a minute longer. Meanwhile, the pressure is mounting with two men having one-on-one dates, with both bachelors facing the possibility of not getting a rose and being sent home immediately. A steamy Turkish bathhouse, a day at an exotic bazaar and group date at a historic castle with a spirited wrestling competition — in olive oil! — helps Ali recover from her face-off with Justin. The men's anxiety is reaching an all-time peak, but Ali is extremely confident about who should stay and who should go.

Lisbon, Portugal, is the romantic and vibrant city where Ali will make her most important decision yet, as the pressure mounts and Ali must decide which four men will have the opportunity to take her home to meet their families. Filled with anxiety at the beginning of the week, she still has serious questions about some of the men. Will she be ready to let one man go forever? Plus, in a highly anticipated interview, The Bachelor's Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi, whose recent breakup made media headlines across the country, face each other for the first time in an emotional and dramatic dialogue with host Chris Harrison.

The stakes are high as Ali returns to the U.S. from her exciting world tour and begins an emotionally charged journey across the country to visit Roberto, Chris L., Kirk and Frank in their hometowns. Her bond with each man is growing stronger, but she is severely tested by some of the families. Plus, how ready are these bachelors for marriage? Ali is about to find out from the people who know them best. Back in Los Angeles, Ali must make a heartbreaking decision to send one man home, while three of them will accompany her to Tahiti.

Romantic adventures await Ali and the final three bachelors — Chris L., Frank and Roberto — in the tropical heaven of Tahiti and the possibility of intimate overnight dates. There's electricity and passion in the air during these wonderful sand-and-surf excursions, as Ali continues to explore what her future would be like with each of these potential partners and is given the option of extending an invitation to each bachelor to spend the night in a "fantasy suite." However, while Chris and Roberto head to the South Pacific, Frank lags behind in Chicago to make some major life decisions — decisions that could have a serious effect on Ali's journey to find love.

It's an explosive reunion viewers won't want to miss, as the most memorable bachelors from this season — including Kasey, Kirk, Craig R., Ty, Jonathan and Derrick aka "Shooter" — return to confront each other and Ali one last time on national television. The men will dish the dirt and tell their side of the story, discussing the difficulty of competing for Ali's affections and focus in on one of the most controversial bachelors of the season: Justin. Shocking revelations from Justin's ex-girlfriend confirm all the stories about the entertainment wrestler's passionate past. Exciting and funny unseen moments from this dramatic season will also be featured, along with a special preview of the new series Bachelor Pad.

As she prepares to make one of the most difficult decisions of her life, she invites the two remaining bachelors to Bora Bora, Tahiti, to meet her family. Afterwards, the men have one last chance to open their hearts to Ali, each trying to guarantee that he will be the one to get Ali's final rose. Ali, who has risked everything for a second chance at love, has always feared that she might fall in love but not be loved back. When she finally lays it all on the line, will she find love … or leave paradise with a broken heart?

With Ali's search for her soul mate over, she talks to Chris Harrison about her final three bachelors this season. She'll take viewers back to exotic Tahiti when Frank dropped his bombshell announcement that he was in love with his ex-girlfriend and was breaking off his relationship with Ali.
