What to expect from the upcoming episode?
Hosted by Jesse Palmer, the upcoming installment will feature Zach Shallcross going on dates with 19 women. Unlike other seasons, the show’s lead star has also decided to go on a one-on-one date with each suitress.
The upcoming episode will also welcome American rapper 'Latto' and a few Bachelor Nation alums during Zach’s group date. The guests will help him in getting to know the women better through a challenge.
The official synopsis of The Bachelor season 27 episode 2 explains what fans can expect from the two-hour episode. The description for the first half of the episode reads:
“Zach continues to carve his own path and decides that all of his remaining women will go on a date this week, giving them each the chance to take the next step on their journeys to potential love.”
Hinting at the challenges, the description reads on:
“First up, on a confidence-boosting group date, the women are challenged to channel their bad b**** energy by 'Latto' and some of Bachelor Nation’s baddest b****es, but when an unexpected guest interrupts the after party, the date’s challenge takes on a whole new meaning.”
Zach will then begin the one-on-one date series and will take his first suitress to his hometown of Anaheim Hills, California.
The synopsis further stated:
“Later, Zach takes off for his first one-on-one with a helicopter ride to his hometown, followed by a romantic candlelit dinner and a chance to meet his family. The remaining women enjoy a romantic evening party. It’s still early but with connections forming quickly, some women begin to question where their relationships stand.”
