Thank goodness for Ross, amirite?
If Arie proposed to me today, Id probably say no, she admits.
But if he proposes to her in four to six days?

Wellthatmight be a whole different story.
The Bachelor meets her in the middle of the desert, where a dune buggy awaits.
But as we all know, nothing aboutThe Bacheloris normal.

Kendalls worries only intensify as the Fantasy Suite approaches.
and not real Wife Material.
And I hope for a proposal at the end of all this.

Before he heads out to shower and brush his teeth for date No.
2, the Bachelor tells Kendall that hes definitely falling in love with her, too.
Okay, Lauren youre up!
Its a beautiful, unique cultural wonder so naturally, Lauren is bubbling over with excitement.
Sometimes, it does feel like theres a wall up, notes our perceptive Bachelor.
Id really just love for Lauren to soak all this in and not be in her head so much.
(Say it with me, rose lovers: YOU ARE ONTHE BACHELOR, WOMAN!)
Just know that Im crazy about you, Arie reminds her.
And I see a potential in you being my wife.
Sorry pal, but thats not good enough.
I need to feel like Im the only girl that you see, Lauren counters.
That kind of hurts me, the Bachelor admits.
If Im reassuring her the whole time, Im not really getting to know her.
Will a night in the Fantasy Suite change that?
In typical Lauren fashion, her reaction is…understated.
To be fair, Lauren eventually recovers enough to reciprocate Aries declaration.
I was just so happy to hear that, she says.
I just want you know that I love you, too.
Okay then the Fantasy Suite awaits!
Were in a good place, Lauren tells us the next morning.
My concerns about everything I was worried about yesterday have subsided.
It was just a fun, chill date on a boat, bubbles Becca.
Im just so damn happy.
What could possibly go wrong?
After a night in the Fantasy Tent, Becca and Arie are feeling no pain.
Nothing can get in the way at all, gushes Becca.
Theres a beefy former boyfriend at the door!
And he wants his perky Minnesota publicist back.
Im Ross, he tells Arie, when the Bachelor opens the door.
Without waiting for an invite, Ross enters Aries room and asks if they can chat for a second.
This did not sit well with Ross.
Thats my proposal to give her, he informs Arie.
Shes the love of my life.
I want to marry her.
Ida swam here if I had to, he continues.
I came here to get her, because shes the one for me.
Though this is a lot to take in, Arie maintains his composure.
Oh honey, no one respects any relationship on this show, but sure.
It blows my mind.
The guy has huge fing balls, Arie fumes.
Or hes fing crazy.
Welp, its time to see what Becca thinks about all this.
Hmmm…pretty clear how she feels, eh Ross?
But the Avenging Ex isnt ready to hear it.
Really, youre not excited to see me?
he drawls, as his sad take me back bouquet dangles limply from his hand.
Though they broke up over a year ago, Ross says hes been thinking about her every day.
I want to marry you, Becca.
Yeah, the answers still no.
Youre holding on to, like, a shred of hope that we had years ago, she says.
You cant see that what we has wasnt healthy for so damn long…It ended for a reason.
Finally, it sinks in.
I wish you guys the best.
I have no business being here, Ross mutters, before sadly walking away.
(Heres hoping he gets some sightseeing in before he goes!)
Will the Bachelor hold this blast from the past against Becca when the rose ceremony rolls around?
Only time (about the length of a commercial break) will tell.
I dont think we can get there, he tells her.
Shes disappointed but handles it with grace, which is no surprise given her humane behavior this entire season.
It means a lot that youve been in my life, she says ruefully.
I love being around you.
Guys…Kendall for Bachelorette, right?
Look at the two other options and tell me sheisntthe best choice.
Like I said before, what could possibly go wrong?
Well, rose lovers, were almost at the end of this journey.
Did Arie send the right woman home?
Which woman do you want to win?
And is it me, or does sand surfing look really unpleasant?
Post your thoughts now!

I cant decide.)
