Tonight on...
(Arie) That is so cool.
(Emily) I am so happy to be here in Prague.
Look at that. The city is so romantic.
(John) Emily is everything that I want in a woman.
(Arie) I feel like I've been waiting my whole life
to find Emily.
It's been a long, long time
since I've had feelings like this.
(Emily) You've just made me, like, the happiest girl.
If things keep going this way,
nothing would make me happier.
(Jef) I think I'd be the luckiest guy in the world
to have a future with her.
(Emily) Next week is hometowns, and I can't help but think
about meeting these guys' families.
This became, like, super serious.
(Chris) I took time with Emily for granted.
Tonight's definitely a big night.
I don't feel right.
I don't know what to do with myself.
I'm going crazy.
So I'm really worried now.
Uncertainty is one of the worst feelings
you could possibly have.
There's definitely some--
some things I wanna talk to her about.
I could miss out on this opportunity
but I just had no idea what to expect.
♪
I feel like I have the best group of guys ever.
Last week I didn't send anyone home,
because I just didn't know. I didn't feel confident.
I want to get to know them better.
I want to know next time I send someone home
that they are definitely not the guy for me.
I am way more nervous now than I was at the beginning,
just because next week is hometowns,
and I can't help but think about going home
and meeting these guys' families,
which is something I'm looking forward to,
and how serious that is,
and I'm at a point now where I want to meet their families.
I want to see what makes these guys who they are.
♪
(Jef) Holy cow, that's crazy.
(Chris B.) Wow. (John) Beautiful.
Gentlemen, good morning. How's it going?
(Men) Good. (John) Good. Yourself?
Welcome to one of the most beautiful,
historic cities in all the world--Prague.
You are the six men that Emily definitely sees a future with.
And I hope by this point you feel the same about her,
because this is by far the biggest week.
Your relationship is about to take a huge step forward.
The four of you who receive roses this week
will get the opportunity to take Emily
back to your hometowns to meet your family--
a huge step in any relationship.
This week, there will not be three,
but rather four dates--
three romantic one-on-one dates and a group date.
On the one-on-one dates, no roses.
Those dates are just about you spending as much time
with Emily as possible
without the pressure of a rose hanging over your head.
On the group date, there will be a rose up for grabs.
The man that gets that rose-- guaranteed to take Emily
back to his hometown to meet his family.
You guys ready for this? (Men) Yeah.
Go find your hotel. Your first date card from Emily
will be waiting for you there.
Gentlemen, enjoy Prague. I'll see you later.
Thanks. Thanks, Chris.
♪
I'm definitely falling for Emily.
Emily possesses all the qualities
that I look for in a girl that I want to be with.
Last time I had Emily all to myself, I was in London.
I really need more time with her.
The hometowns are right around the corner,
and if I do take her home to meet my family,
you know, that will be a big deal.
Whoa! It's all pink!
It's all pink in here, huh? This is awesome. This place is cool!
Cool, man. (Sean) The suite's beautiful.
It overlooks these expansive gardens.
Hello, Prague!
Boys. (Men) Whoa!
Look what I got-- a date card. (Man) Whoa-ho!
I've never been here,
and I just want to soak up the culture
and, most importantly, spend time with Emily.
"Arie..." (John) Ooh!
"Let's Czech out Prague together..."
Nice. "Emily."
Very cool. I'm stoked.
Yeah, that's cool. I didn't expect that.
(Men) I didn't expect it, either.
I'm actually-- I'm super excited about it, though.
Let me see that thing. Oh, nice.
(Chris) It's disappointing.
I-I want to hear my name on that date card.
All right, guys. Well, I better get ready.
(Chris) The stakes are huge, you know?
There's hometown dates next week, so...
It's very important to get that extra alone time with Emily
to not only confirm the feelings that I have for her,
but confirm the feelings that she has for me.
Yeah, rose or no rose, I think there's just as much pressure.
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
(Razor buzzing)
I'm nervous. I'm just--
my heart's pounding.
Emily is totally the woman of my dreams
and somebody that I've fallen in love with
after a few dates.
I want a hometown so badly. I want Emily to meet my parents.
I'm a little anxious.
I have a lot invested in my emotions, my feelings,
and so... I don't know. I'm excited to see her.
(Man) Hey. What's going on?
Good to see you. How are you? Good to see you.
Hey! Hey!
How are you?
(Emily) The fact that hometowns are so close--
they're next week--
I feel like I have a lot of pressure on myself
to make the right decision.
I have six guys here,
and I'm only gonna be able to go to four hometowns.
Once we get families involved, like,
that makes it that much more serious,
and I want to know that I'm picking the right guys.
Where are we going?
We are gonna go this way.
Okay.
You look beautiful today.
Thank you. You look very handsome.
Going into the date with Arie, I'm so excited.
I don't really have a plan. I just want to go and have fun
and pretend like it's just my husband and I
on vacation in Prague, and this is what we would do.
♪
Thank you.
I am gonna be your tour guide for the day.
All right. You're in trouble.
(Laughs) Okay. Good thing we brought our book.
Wow, look at this. This is so cool. Wow.
Isn't it wild to stand here and look at that
and think about how many people have stood right here...
I know. And looked at that exact same clock?
That's cool. Isn't that cool?
English? English? (Man speaks indistinctly)
No? Yes? English? A little? Little. Little.
Uh, two hot wines.
Have you ever had hot wine? I never heard of it.
(Laughs) Me neither.
It feels amazing walking with Emily arm in arm
through the streets.
Wow, look at that.
It would be very romantic if we got married
in one of these giant cathedrals.
You are so beautiful.
Mmm.
♪
I'm glad you're here with me today.
I'm glad that you brought me here. Mmm.
Today is just probably the best day I could ask for.
I'm definitely feeling more and more in love with her
every moment I hang out with her.
I like to kiss Arie.
I feel like I let him know that a lot
by kissing him a lot.
♪
But, at the same time,
I know something about Arie that he's not telling me.
He doesn't know that I know, so it's like
a lot's been weighing on my mind--a lot.
"There are two things on this statue that you should touch.
"The lady on the right is for good luck in love,
and the dog on the left is for... loyalty."
It's weird to rub a dog that... represents loyalty,
when I know in the back of my head
that he has a secret that he is hiding from me.
All right. Should we do it together?
Yeah. You should do it twice--extra.
(Laughs) Okay.
Does that mean we'll have that-- you have to rub it. No, it just--
oh. There you go. There we go.
And then--and this is loyalty. The dog?
Loyalty. That's a big one.
Coming up...
Do you feel like you're really open with me? Totally.
(Emily) I know something that he's not telling me.
(Chris Harrison) Arie had a very brief relationship
with "bachelor" producer Cassie lambert.
(Woman) It's obvious there's something on your mind.
If he's okay with hiding
that he even knows you, much less dated you,
what the (Bleep) Else is he hiding?
Hi. I'm Chris Harrison.
I wanted to take this time to talk to you
about something you may have heard or even read about.
It involves Arie's past romantic relationship
with one of our producers.
Some time ago-- in fact, several years ago--
Arie had a very brief relationship
with "bachelor" producer Cassie lambert.
Emily had no idea about this relationship
when production began.
But Cassie took it upon herself to tell Emily about it
as soon as it became apparent that Emily was developing
some serious feelings for Arie.
In the interest of full disclosure,
we taped a sequence with Cassie interviewing Emily
about this touchy subject.
We want to show you that sequence now.
Cassie is the producer putting the microphone on Emily,
and she's the one asking the questions.
It's obvious there's, like, something on your mind.
Like, if he's okay with hiding that he even knows you,
much less dated you,
and we've been hanging out for so long,
like, what the (Bleep) Else is he hiding?
You know? He's a good actor.
Yeah, but I don't think he's hiding that he knows me.
Like, we've been very cordial--like, cool.
It's not like... But--
we're asking--at first, I think, too, like,
it's been so long, we don't really
know each other that well. Yeah.
It's like, I haven't-- I haven't--
like, in ten years, I've seen him, like, twice.
Yeah, I just-- I don't know.
I feel st--I feel, like, stupid, you know?
I guess I probably said it from the beginning,
but I thought you'd really like him.
I wanted you to get to know him
and not associate me with it.
But I didn't want it to be weird. Yeah. Had I known,
it would be like... Cool.
But I just didn't tell him that I was gonna tell you.
So he probably doesn't know-- yeah, but I just wish that,
you know--I am so glad you told me, don't get me wrong.
But I wish that it just would have happened, like,
you know, first day, like, "oh, yeah,
Cassie and I have known each other forever."
I just don't think it's come up.
It's like a weird thing to, like, say. It's come up.
"Oh, Cassie my producer is so great.
She's engaged to Pete," and--
that would have been the perfect time to be like-- he didn't even know
I was engaged till he came on the show. "Oh, yeah, I know Cassie.
Cassie, you're engaged? That's so crazy,"
or, "oh, this is Cassie, my producer.
Oh, yeah, I know her." Oh, I don't think he would,
for fear of, like, it being weird.
But it wouldn't have been weird if somebody
would have just said at day one,
"hey, we know each other." Not even, "we dated."
Don't care. Yeah.
"Yeah, we know--we've known each other for a long time.
I thought he'd be great for you." Well, that's my fault.
I should have done that. I'd be like, "cool.
Somebody's setting me up. Cool." You know?
Yeah. Yeah. I would be like, "Cassie, you missed out."
Right. You're right. Like, "he's a great kisser."
Right. Like, I mean, I would totally-- I wouldn't care.
Like, I'm--I wouldn't care,
but now I feel like an idiot,
'cause I feel like I'm the only one.
And this isn't like a production thing.
It's like a real life thing, you know? Yeah.
It's not like it's for the show.
Well, the production doesn't even known.
It's like producers--no crew knows or anything like--
these two do now. They've put it together.
But, like, it's not a thing.
Yeah, I just--
yeah, that's the thing. Like, it's not a production thing.
It's like a real life thing, you know? Yeah.
I know something about Arie that he's not telling me.
♪
Do you feel like you're really open with me?
Yeah. Totally. Mm-hmm.
I feel like I'd tell you anything.
I just want to make sure that, like,
I really, really know...
Yeah.
Who you are, you know? Yeah.
I think I am a good reflection of who I am...
Mm-hmm. You know, back home.
I think I've been the same person, you know? Mm-hmm.
And, you know, you just have to, like, trust in somebody
until they give you a reason not to.
Now do you think you're trustworthy?
I think I'm very trustworthy. Really?
Mm-hmm. I've always--
I've always been, like, a very trustworthy person.
Mm-hmm.
And we rubbed that dog on the bridge.
That's true.
I think you have to just trust, like,
in your relationship so much
and trust in your partner.
Me, too. It's the most important thing,
'cause if that's ever broken, then it just--
it's all-- and, like, having no secrets.
I like that. Mm-hmm.
That's good. Me, too.
It's better to be upfront and honest--
almost too honest, you know? I agree.
Like, if--if someone's, like, really--
sometimes... it sucks when someone's really honest.
You know? But I think it's-- but there's a difference between being honest and rude.
Yeah.
What is another important thing for you?
Being, like, totally open about everything
and not having any secrets.
Um... that's huge.
And I have to be honest--do you want me to be honest with you?
Mm-hmm.
I had a-a tattoo
of a girl's name on me,
but I got it covered up. Where?
The w-- who?
The ex that I was--that I lived with, with two kids.
Hmm. That's interesting.
So, you know, I have to--
I just have to be honest with you about everything.
I have sort of-- well, thank you.
I wish he would have said from day one,
"hey, yeah, Cassie and I have known each other forever."
It kind of makes me feel a little bit insecure,
like, "why is he not telling me?"
And that scares me,
considering hometowns are next week.

Welcome back to "the bachelorette."
I'm Chris Harrison.
Emily just found out in Prague that many years ago,
Arie had a very brief romantic relationship
with our producer Cassie lambert.
What concerned Emily the most
was that Arie didn't tell her about it.
Now, again, in the interest of full disclosure,
Emily, Arie, and Cassie then had a very honest conversation
about the issue.
Unfortunately, this conversation took place off camera.
But here's what was discussed--
Arie told Emily that he felt the relationship
was so brief and took place so long ago, it didn't matter.
Emily agreed.
And she realized her feelings and her relationship with Arie
wasn't affected, as you're about to see.
♪
I really did have--have a great day with you today.
I know you had a lot of things on your mind,
and I know that it's my fault that I didn't say anything.
It's not because I wanted to be dishonest. You know?
It didn't even cross my mind.
That's cool. Good. I'm glad.
There was just a misunderstanding.
You didn't do anything wrong. And I'm sorry.
No, you shouldn't apologize at all.
No, but I should have given you the benefit of the doubt.
Sorry.

and that's why, like, that was like the most shocking thing.
You know, I do have a tough shell,
and it's--it's nice to trust somebody
to open up and to be vulnerable
and to let her--let her in.
I'd rather put it all out there than get sent home
and be at home kicking myself
for not being open and vulnerable.
Do you think that that has changed the way you are
in relationships? Um, it's changed--
you know, I might take things a little bit slower,
but, um, you know, I know what I want.
You know, I went in with like an open mind,
being like, yeah, okay, you know,
maybe I could fall in love with this girl.
And it was always just like "maybe."
And now, like, today, it's like, yes,
I definitely could fall in love with this girl.
Now it's hitting home hard.
This whole time, I've been thinking that John
was just, like, a slow mover
and took a little bit of time to get to know
and time to open up, and now I know why.
He got his heart broken. It makes me feel sad for him,
and, um, I feel like I have gotten to know John
so much better and feel so much closer to him tonight.
So I would love--love for you to meet my parents.
You would look at me a little differently
if you met my parents. Ok.
It would be a good thing.
You think so? I know so.
I think you'd get along with my parents extremely well. Yeah?
They're pretty cool.
My mom and you would... Be two peas in a pod.
I want to take Emily home.
I think taking her home to my parents
would be huge for us.
And I'm definitely 100% confident
that my family and Emily would get along.
You know, it's like, with us, I feel like we've just taken
little steps.
And, you know, I like taking little steps... Mm-hmm.
And then making big strides towards the end.
I'm not a starter. I'm a closer, so...
Well, I like that.

It's freezin'.
Doug has told me that he misses his son a lot,
and I know what it's like to be in his position here
as a single parent, and it's hard.
Would Austin love this?
Yes. He would. Is he into, like, castles and...
He just loves anything that's... Boy stuff?
Yeah. All boy stuff.
Today is gonna be a true test

to fall in love and be my guy.

Yeah. Oops. Sorry.
No. You're fine. (Sighs) No, Doug, don't--
don't worry. Our legs are touching. No, I--

where you see the relationship being,
if it's you and I in the end.

because he's just a big kid himself.
Wow. That is really impressive.
(Laughs)
Nice. (Chuckles) Oh, yeah. There you go.
There you go. (Chuckles) You're good at that.
Good job.
(Laughs) (Chuckles)
That's me. That's you. Mm-hmm.
You look like a princess. This--this is fitting. Thank you.
You have, like, your own style. You're very trendy.
We switched eye colors. That's good, though.
Mm-hmm. You know, we see a little bit of each other in--
yeah. Together.
See the world through each other's eyes. Right.
I think I'd be the luckiest guy in the world
to have a future with Emily, and I--and I can see it.
I mean, there's just something there.
(Chuckles) Hey, wait.
Will you hold this for a second?
I need to run somewhere.
Uh-oh.
The more I'm around her,
the more I want to be around her,
and the--the more I'm with her,
the more I could see my life with her,
and sometimes it's hard for me to just come out and say
some feelings that I have.
Hey.
Aw. We couldn't leave Ricki hangin'. (Chuckles)
You are the sweetest thing.
She has to have one, too. Thank you.
You're welcome.
That was really sweet of you.
She's a princess.
She will love that.
I feel like I have worked really hard
to get Jef to notice me
and know that I am really interested in him,
and I feel like today I'm noticing a huge change in him,
in just the way he is towards me,
and I am so happy that we're finally at a place
where we're seeing beyond all the wonderful things
I saw in him the very first night.
Hey, look. I'm giving Ricki a shoulder ride.
(Chuckles) She's on my shoulders. (Chuckles)
It's crazy, but I really can picture myself
walking into Jef's office one day
and seeing pictures of our family,
and I love that.
(Emily) Thank you. (Jef) You're welcome.
Whoa. This is crazy. Pretty cool, huh?
Yeah.
Reading books-- this is ridiculous.
I know, right? Yeah.
Jef and I found our way into this beautiful library
with these intricate murals on the ceiling,
and we happened to have our marionettes with us,
so I figure, what better place to put on a puppet show
and reenact every highlight from our relationship than here?
So this is me, standing here really nervous.
Yeah, right. You didn't look nervous at all.
If I could play with my hair any more,
it probably would have fallen off.
(Chuckles) "Do I look okay? Oh, my gosh."
(Chuckles) Uh, this is me over here...
Mm-hmm. Standing, waiting to meet you.
(Laughs)
"Uh, what--what do I do with my hands?"
(Laughs)
"Oh, no. I'm freaking out."
And I go, "hi," and I hug the skateboard.
"Hey." "Hey.
I'm so glad I didn't wreck on that skateboard."
That's what I said to you. "Oh, my gosh. I wanted to ride it."
"Maybe someday." "Maybe we can find it."
"Okay." And then flash-forward to...
"Oh. Oh, hey, Jef. Um, you wanna go talk?"
"Um, thanks, but no, thanks."
"Oh, where's Jef?
"I really wanted to talk to Jef. Oh, wait.
Oh. Oh, wait. Come back." (Chuckles) (Chuckles)
"Oh, my gosh. So... I'm so excited you're here,
"and you make me really nervous,
and you make me say really awkward stuff."
"I really like your nail Polish."
"Oh, thanks. I'm never gonna change it."
"This is weird. I don't know what I'm doing here.
I like you, but I don't know how to..."
Okay. It's gonna happen. He's gonna kiss me,
and then you're like, "okay. You ready to go inside?"
But-- I was nervous.
I don't know if I've ever been that nervous in my life.
All day long, I'm sitting and thinking,
ugh! Ugh! (Laughs)
"Why have I not kissed her? Ugh!"
(Laughs)
"So dumb! Don't do that ever again."
(Laughs)
There's so many things I-I want
to build up the courage to say,
and, uh, since we have these puppets,
it--it somehow makes it easier
to be able to express some big feelings.
"Hi."
"Hey. You look very handsome."
"You look amazing.
"Every time I see you, you look so beautiful.
"This whole thing has blown my wildest dreams
out of the water..."
(Chuckles) "And...
"I...
"I am 100...
I'm one million percent..."
(Laughs)
"In love with you, and I can't even imagine
what I would do without you in my life."
"Can we..."
"Get a dog together?"
(Laughs) (Chuckles)
"Jef, that's so crazy.
That's exactly what I was thinking, too..." "Oh."
"But I thought maybe we'd get another cat."
(Chuckles) "Okay."

I have to say that I did miss talking
to each of you tonight, um,
but the whole point of the cocktail parties,
for me, is to have any unanswered questions answered,
and I'm really happy to say
that at the end of this week of dates,
any questions I had were answered,
and the only reason for that
is because y'all were so open and honest with me
