"Stay tuned for my demise" — The Bachelor star Grant struggles to make his final decision

Besides his confessions to Litia and Juliana, the preview of the season finale showed Grant stating that he could envision himself getting engaged to Zoe. However, his equation with the ladies put him in a predicament as he struggled to choose one to start the next phase of his life with.

"I never thought it would be possible to be in love with multiple women. I don't know how to navigate it. Stay tuned for my demise," Grant said.

In another scene, during a dialogue with the cameras, the Bachelor admitted it was "impossible" not to hurt someone while finalizing his perfect match. Although the situation was "excrutiating," he claimed it was inevitable. He feared he would pick someone with whom his relationship would not last.

While Zoe stated that she did not know much about Grant due to their limited time together, an upset Juliana confessed she was "a little broken" and still working to "fix" herself when Grant asked her if she was ready for an engagement.

One of the segments of the preview saw Grant sit down with his family to seek their advice. On one hand, his mother asked him to "walk away," supposedly from a relationship, on the other, his father said he believed Grant would make the "right choice."

Even during the climax, when host Jesse Palmer asked Grant which woman he should send in first, he responded:

"The truth is I don't know."
