Six years ago, Arie Luyendyk Jr. was in love and a day away from proposing to the woman of his dreams. And then, she broke his heart. Emily Maynard (now Emily Maynard Johnson) may not have been Arie’s future wife, but he hasn’t been able to find a love like hers since. Now Arie, 36, is back and ready to race into America’s heart yet again when he returns for a second shot at love. Arie meets with one of Bachelor Nation’s favorite married couples, Sean and Catherine Lowe and their son, Samuel, before his journey begins. Now armed with advice and encouragement, Arie is ready for the tumultuous night ahead.

The drama is ramped up when Chelsea receives the first one-on-one date in Ft. Lauderdale. Arie swoops in to take her on a luxury yacht, but her checkered past may endanger her getting a rose. Eleven women engage in competitive bowling with the winner going to a private after-party. Tia and Arie travel to the Sawtooth Park Reserve, riding an air boat through the Florida swamps, but her past might spell the end for this happy couple. The women decide to confront one selfish bachelorette about her behavior at the cocktail party. Everyone is on edge as three more women are sent home in tears. The search for love is about to go international, as Arie and the remaining women travel to Paris.

Arie and the remaining bachelorettes travel to South Lake Tahoe, Nev.; Seinne joins the bachelor on a parasailing date; one hopeful receives a phone call that might alter her journey; Bekah reveals a secret during her one-on-one date.

Paris is a spectacular backdrop for Arie’s continuing search for his soul mate. After last week’s drama, the women are looking for a fresh start, but they soon discover the dreaded two-on-one date is this week. But first, Lauren B. and Arie tour the city’s tourist attractions. Arie surprises a group of the women with a visit to the legendary dance hall, Moulin Rouge, ending with one of them performing with the Bachelor that night onstage. Krystal and Kendall face off during the two-on-one date that ends with a romantic kiss at the top of the Eiffel Tower for one woman.

Arie and the remaining seven bachelorettes travel to beautiful Tuscany, Italy, as the hometown dates loom. Becca K. gets the first one-on-one date where the couple will discover if they can rekindle their passionate connection. Meanwhile, a confused Jacqueline visits a surprised Arie in his hotel room. Arie and Lauren B. explore the charming town of Lucca, but is she is ready for a hometown date? Seinne and Arie go hunting for truffles, but Arie is searching for clarity about how she might fit into his life. Finally, Kendall, Tia and Bekah M. battle for the final rose, and Arie is left to wonder if he made the right decision.
