The Bachelor

New York Giants backup quarterback Jesse Palmer plays the field in another installment of the roses-and-romance reality show kicks off with a gathering of 25 single hopefuls. But before the night is over, 10 of the ladies will be sidelined after Jesse picks the 15 who will move in to the Ladies Villa.

The spy within Ladies Villa is revealed (only to the viewers, of course), while Jesse takes the woman who scored his white rose to the opera. After that---and the group dates---it's time for five more hopefuls to be shut out.

The ladies take a compatibility test before Jesse takes his top scorers away for one-on-one dates. After that---and a group outing to help the less fortunate---it's time for six of the 10 hopefuls to go home without a rose.

Jesse's friend checks into Ladies Villas to scope out the six remaining hopefuls, who face three one-on-one dates and a group gathering. After that, four roses are handed out and two more women are out the door.

Jesse's four remaining ladies take him to meet their folks before he has to send one of them home for good.

Chris Harrison reunites Jesse's 22 ousted ex-hopefuls, who come clean about life in Ladies Villa, the secrets of group dates and the shock of Jenny S.'s spying. Mr. Palmer himself pops in to face the ladies and discuss his final two picks.

Jesse's overnight dates with his three remaining ladies take a dramatic turn when a woman from his past pops up with a plan of her own.

In the season finale, Jesse brings his final two dates home to meet the family before making his choice. At the same time, the ladies get to do a little ring shopping, and former spy Jenny S. gives her bud one last piece of advice about who should get the last rose.
