A panicked bachelor voices his concerns, and a vulnerable bachelorette worries that her reserved guy may not reciprocate her feelings. Who will leave their time in Paradise engaged and ready to start their next chapter and who will leave with their heart broken?

In the premiere episode of what promises to be another wild ride of Bachelor in Paradise, our favorite members of Bachelor Nation begin their journey for another chance at finding love at a luxurious Mexico resort. Host and keeper of the keys Chris Harrison is there to greet the men and women that are hoping to find true love on the beach like Carly and Evan or Jade and Tanner, who found each other in previous seasons, and have since married and started families. Later this season, these two happy couples will return to make an appearance in Paradise in addition to more Bachelor Nation twosomes and fan favorites, including Ashley I. and Jared, Raven and Adam, Arie and Lauren B., Ben Higgins, Becca Kufrin and Amanda Stanton.

Big surprises lead to shocking reactions in an unexpectedly moving new episode of Bachelor in Paradise. The drama begins as a noncommittal single returns from his date with a former flame and unwanted confrontation awaits him back on the beach. Meanwhile, the next date card goes to a professional wrestler who steals one lively lady away from a handsome firefighter who was courting her just the night before. With all the mixing and matching going on, it’s anyone’s guess who will stay and who will go, and it’s left up to the women at the first rose ceremony of the season. After pressure from her girlfriends, one frustrated friend-without-benefits tells her guy with cold feet to be all in with her or she’s moving on. So, when the former NFL player decides to explore his options, his rival for her affection sees an opportunity to score major points. Who will ultimately be rewarded with this bachelorette’s rose and who will say goodbye to Paradise?

In the next rollercoaster ride of an episode, Becca Kufrin is still in Paradise and on her way to talk to an emotional bachelor from her season. Will he get the closure he needs? And will he stay in Paradise? Elsewhere, one specific romantic hopeful already imagines leaving Paradise engaged, but she’s blindsided by a new arrival. Later, a nerdy computer programmer is surprisingly a hot commodity, and a single dad gets put in the friend zone. Finally, a feisty female and a smooth talker share a kiss, but his loose lips leave her feeling deceived.

A distressed damsel confronts the man that deceived her by kissing another woman, and the shocked bachelorette realizes that she still hopes that her original love interest will prove to be her guy. With four women potentially going home at the rose ceremony, a popular single dad has a decision to make. Creating more controversy at the cocktail party, an unabashed pot-stirrer’s actions lead to a spectacle that upsets one woman in particular.
