Love is at an all-time high during an unforgettable season finale. Tim and Ben take their final ladies to their home towns for one final date. Then, live on-stage, the two men will make the biggest decision of their lives. Preeminent matchmaker Amber Kelleher-Andrews, relationship author Tracy McMillan and professional dating coach Matthew Hussey coach the women on forming compatible relationships with each of the eligible men.

In the season premiere, 12 of the 36 women begin their journey in the hopes of striking a harmonious chord with rock star Tim Lopez of the Plain White T's, but only eight lucky women will continue on in hopes of finding true love with Tim. Executive producer Eva Longoria ("Desperate Housewives") along with preeminent matchmaker Amber Kelleher-Andrews, relationship author Tracy McMillan and professional dating coach Matthew Hussey handpicked the women based on personality, appearance and overall compatibility with Tim.

Tim takes his five women to his hometown of Santa Barbara, California, where he continues to connect with his ladies on a deeper level. Ernesto surprises his four women on a date to a private lake where secrets expose themselves. Ben takes his five women to Vegas where the ladies end up competing for his affections, leading to a shocking elimination.

After introducing the women to their families last week, it is now the bachelors turn to travel to the girls' hometowns. With only three contestants left in each house, which families will give the green light to move things forward, and which will relationships prove to be doomed? Will Ernesto find the love of his life? Preeminent matchmaker Amber Kelleher-Andrews, relationship author Tracy McMillan and professional dating coach Matthew Hussey coach the women on forming compatible relationships with each of the eligible men.

Now that Tim, Ernesto and Ben have each chosen their top eight women, it is time to get to know their women on a more personal level. Tim surprises his eight women with a day of pampering in Beverly Hills. Elsewhere, Ernesto decides to put his ladies to the test and see how they handle the arrival of a surprise visitor.
