That happened one year in the past. Brad did not pick either of the final two.
You and I know that no one knows where they are filming this at and for someone like an ex-boyfriend to just show up is total DRAMA from production. No one on this show has ever said they hype it up but I'm sure they have to sign a privacy statement NOT to reveal anything. There has been someone on the show say they edit things to add drama.
No, I'm not talking myself out of watching the show anymore. I'm a total sucker for it and can't stop. LOL

he did one thing very wrong. You donot tell any of them you love them before the final ceremony. He told 2. because of that I hope they say no. it might be at the end he doesn't offer the ring to either one because if he truly is in love with both then how can he give it to one and not the other?
'The Bachelor' Recap: An Ex-Boyfriend Ruins the Fantasy Suite
Monday, February 26, 2018

Contributing Writer, BuddyTV
With the hometown dates and awkward family greetings in the rear view mirror, we've reached the final stretch of Arie Luyendyk, Jr.'s quest for love in season 22 of The Bachelor.
It's the time when it's finally acceptable for him and his ladies to shed inhibitions, cameras and their clothes to reveal perfect three-pack abs and determine true compatibility with the ol' R. Kelly "key in the ignition" litmus test.
But, alas, as Arie heads to the fantasy suite with his two potential wives and Kendall, the lay of the land is not quite as anticipated. There's no 22-year-old spitfire. There's no Southern belle. There's no perfect elephant cuff link Seinne.
Instead, we've got the first contestant in Bachelor history who -- and I cannot stress this enough -- enjoys playing with stuffed animal carcasses.
We've got a lady who lacks any sort of outward personality and who we all expected to be sent home before the startling confession that Arie was actually falling for her.
And we've got a seemingly normal gal who only emerged as a favorite because everyone else was fading into the background.
And Arie is inexplicably about to drop L-bombs on all three of them.
Pshhhhaw. They're humans, bozo, not Neapolitan ice cream flavors (though Kendall is definitely strawberry). It's all leading up to the most dramatic finale in Bachelor history (obviously). But first, we've got overnights and the brief appearance of one douchy ex.
Quirky Turkey
Kendall gets the first date in Ica, Peru, which is apparently home to all the world's adorable baby goats. They zoom around in a dune buggy and sandboard down the arid slopes before dinner leads to a serious conversation over marriage readiness. If proposed at this moment, she'd lean toward no.
She feels like Arie's her best friend, but she wants him to see past the "novelty girl" traits that make her unique and prove that he takes her seriously. He thinks they're a good fit and admits he's falling for her, and despite some reservations, she agrees to forgo her individual room in an effort to catch up with the other relationships and get closer to engagement.
They retire to a surveillance-free lodging, with Arie hopeful "to learn all the things." They wake to clothes strewn about the floor, with assurances that they "stayed up all night talking." Arie makes breakfast with the newfound knowledge that Kendall likes her eggs sunny side up and super crispy on the bottom, instead of the more common Bachelor answer of "fertilized." They part ways, with Arie divulging, "I'm definitely falling in love with you."
The Super Crispy Bottom of a Sunny Side Up Egg
It's an accurate description of Lauren's personality, and her aloofness is on display as they fly above Nazca Lines, a collection of about 300 ancient geoglyphs in the shapes of animals and plants etched into the desert sands. These freaking things were carved between 500 BC and 500 AD, and the best she can do is deadpan, "I'm amazed," "Oh my god" and "That is not what I expected at all."
Arie senses that her walls are up, and his attempts to dive into her psyche fall flat, as she struggles to get out of her own head. Her fear grows with her feelings, and she's even considered walking away even though she sees him as her husband.
He quells her skepticism over dinner with a blatant, "I do feel confident in all this because I love you," and there's no chance that she turns down the fantasy suite after that. What the hell does he see in this one to have "fallen so hard, so fast"?
The lack of enthusiasm with which she exclaims mutters, "I'm really happy," the next morning explains it all, and they end the date gently whispering declarations of love. If this relationship had a favorite breakfast, it'd be plain oatmeal.
Love on the High Seas
Becca is thrilled to see Arie, showing more emotion before he even arrives than Lauren did on her entire overly affirming date, and she's hoping this is the day she gets to profess her feelings. They explore the Ballestas Islands on a catamaran, and Arie dubs this his "safest" relationship.
Eek. This guy is a race car driver. He doesn't like safe. But is he ready for this kind of maturity? He's noticeably less enthusiastic than with Lauren as they cuddle and discuss future plans, and he seems almost annoyed that he can't pinpoint a looming red flag. She's a prime candidate to get royally screwed over, and we're starting to see the writing on the wall knowing that controversy lies ahead.
That night, under the stars in a romantic tent, Becca reveals that she officially fell in love with Arie the day after hometowns, and it felt so right that it wasn't even scary. He reciprocates, saying that it was on this very date that he realized, "I'm not falling, I am."
She "oh my gods" her way into the fantasy suite, so fulfilled that her heart is exploding. You know, probably because she doesn't realize that she's sloppy thirds in the love department.
Their back-and-forth professions are actually cringe-worthy because it's so hard to believe he's genuine when he just said those same words to two other women. It makes me feel dirty, and not in the good Bachelor-y way.
Blast from the Past
Because we've got another half-hour of time to kill and a severe lack of drama, Arie opens his door to find Ross, aka Becca's ex, who wants his soulmate back. Ross wasn't aware that The Bachelor ended in a proposal, as he's apparently lived under a rock for the past 16 years, and he'd swim oceans to get the love of his life.
Arie mistook him for hotel management, but Ross isn't bringing fresh towels. He reached out to everyone he could find on the Internet, which led to an overnight flight and a five-hour drive to Peru, because it's his proposal -- not Arie's -- to give Becca.
Arie's only request is that if Becca rejects Ross, he respect their relationship moving forward, a promise Ross declines. Arie's anger rages over the man's classless interruption, and in a hilarious bit of unintentional comedy, Arie mutters, "f***ing nerd," as Ross heads to Becca's room.
He arrives with flowers, pants that are too short and too tight, and back sweat, and she promptly sends him on his not-so-merry way without even inviting him inside. What a toolbag. Plenty of bolts but no nuts. I hope his ticket to Peru cost $8,000.
Who's in the Final 2?
Arie has offered two full-blown I love yous and one "I'm definitely falling in love with you," which doesn't bode well for Kendall. But before the inevitable, Becca must convince Arie that she has no desire to return to what she calls an unhealthy relationship that lasted seven years.
She speaks her piece, but she's not emphatic enough in describing the manner in which she kicked Ross to the curb -- without any hesitation -- to convince Arie that there aren't lingering emotional ties.
The roses go to Lauren and Becca, with Arie pulling Kendall aside to break the news privately that he doesn't think they can "get there." She leaves with grace and dignity, saving the tears for the SUV as she pines over never knowing what might have been.
Arie hopes he made the right decision. Which he did. Cause that taxidermy shit is weird.
Did Arie choose wisely or should Kendall have stuck around to meet the family? Are Becca and Lauren a proper final two or are you pining for Tia, Seinne or someone -- anyone -- else? What did you think of Ross and should Becca have been more receptive to his grand gesture? Finally, which lady do you think has captured Arie's heart? Who should he pick? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
