Juliette bravely faces her new reality and the CMA award nominations are announced, pitting Rayna against Luke.

Romantic dates include an evening under the full moon on a country road and also an afternoon on a speedboat on Alabama's Magnolia River.

Alabama native and former quarterback Tribble Reese meets 22 eligible women who have come to Alabama to win his heart. Half of them are country girls, half are city girls, and all are set to fight for his love.

Tribble surprises the women with an impromptu trip to his alma mater, Clemson University, for a home football game. A sideline kiss sparks controversy among the girls.

In the midst of a driving tropical storm, the remaining 20 women visit an alligator farm for the first group date. Tribble chooses one city girl and one country girl for the first of the private dates.

Tribble and the remaining women go from working the ranch on a scorching hot day to cooling off by the river. Romance heats up by the campfire as well as on dates in a honky-tonk bar and a bi-plane ride.
