Tonight on The Bachelor, Jason Mesnick takes the final three bachelorettes to New Zealand for overnight dates - where the fantasy suite may or may not be in play.
Later, the L-word is dropped by one of the three girls, and one is sent home at the end. Will it be Melissa Rycroft, Jillian Harris or Molly Malaney hitting the road?
Check out the sneak preview below ...
Pretty standard promo - except for the part about the "shocking" season finale, which is already being hyped even before tonight's elimination has been announced.
We're referring to the millisecond-long shot about two-thirds of the way in, which clearly shows Jason kissing a woman that really, really looks like DeAnna Pappas.
We know she's coming back to the show in some capacity, but is she really making a play for The Bachelor's heart? We're fairly certain it's her. See screen cap below:
Scandalous, to say the least - either if it actually happens, or if ABC used old footage from last season's The Bachelorette as the ultimate fake-out. Wouldn't surprise us.
What do you think? Would Jason actually choose DeAnna Pappas if given the choice over his remaining options this season, or is this all just reality TV smoke and mirrors?
We'll find out soon enough. For now, follow the jump for a two-minute clip from tonight's episode, in which Molly Malaney and Jason go bungee jumping ...
Way to go, Molly. What a brave and fun-loving girl! It's kind of surprising that Malaney has been trailing by such a substantial margin in our Bachelor poll (below).
There's still time to go, however, and we wouldn't count her out. Will her fantasy date with Jason help tip the scales in her favor, or is she done for after tonight?
Tell us, who do you think will win The Bachelor?

I wish Jason and DeAnna would get together - tht'd be a cool twist. I LOVE watching DeAnna and she hosts this show called Get Married and they're having a live video chat with her tonight; I'm going to go to the site and see if she spills about her and Jason.

I think DeAnna is Melissas sister and that is why Melissas parents could not meet Jason, as he would recognize them.
