"But drama bubbles up when one woman refuses to let someone steal him away," ABC teased of the next episode.
"That night, after learning one person may not be here for the right reasons, Zach addresses his concerns head-on."

"I don't have a good feeling about this," laments Kylee Russell, a 25-year-old postpartum nurse from Charlotte, NC.
Zach then appears to ask Kylee, "Are you really here for me?"
So far on The Bachelor, Zach has developed "amazing connections" with some of his bachelorettes, including Kaity Biggar, a 27-year-old ER nurse from Austin, TX, who got to spend the night with Zach in a museum.
"I could never think in a million years I'd be sitting right here in front of you and feeling the way that I do," Kaity told Zach, calling him "a dream come true" and her potential best friend for life.

And Aly Jacobs, a 26-year-old healthcare strategist from Atlanta, GA, opened up to Zach on her own one-on-one date about how she was willing to let go of control and be herself with him.
Zach also gave Charity Lawson, a 26-year-old child and family therapist from Columbus, GA, a group-date rose.
But Zach said goodbye to Brianna Thorbourne, who self-eliminated due to a lack of connection; Christina Mandrell, who allegedly created a "toxic" environment for the other bachelorettes; and Bailey Brown, whose relationship with Zach couldn't catch up to the others.

The Bachelor season followed the show's usual production schedule and finished filming in late November with Zach's Final Rose Ceremony, but premiered three weeks later than the "first Monday of January" premiere date that The Bachelor historically begins airing on ABC.
Zach's The Bachelor season is "a bit of a throwback" and "a beautiful story"
Jesse Palmer told E! News in November that Zach's season "is a bit of a throwback.""This season is a lot more about the romance and the love, and maybe a little bit less about the drama," explained Jesse, who starred on Season 5 of The Bachelor back in 2004.
Jesse also said on the "Bachelor Happy Hour" podcast in early January that Zach "really shines" throughout his season.
"I really think he comes through," Jesse teased. "He has a beautiful story, and I'm really excited for people to see it."
Zach "cries a lot" during The Bachelor and it's "the most emotional show"
"This is easily the most emotional show that I've hosted in the franchise to date," Jesse told E! News in November.ADVERTISEMENT
Jesse also told Us Weekly that The Bachelor bachelorettes were "really into Zach."
Jesse shared late last year, "Zach's so emotionally mature and he's a guy that's not afraid to wear his emotion on his sleeve. He's very, very intentional. This is easily the most emotional show that I've hosted in the franchise."
Jesse said Zach's season is "emotionally charged" because the bachelorettes really want to end up with Zach.
"It's a [totally] different vibe than I've [ever] had hosting any of the other shows," the host noted.

The other bachelorette who received a one-on-one date with Zach that week in the Bahamas was Brooklyn Willie.
Carbone heard that Anastasia self-eliminated before the Rose Ceremony due to a close friend suddenly passing away.
At the Rose Ceremony, Zach went from 14 bachelorettes to only 11 women by denying roses to Davia and Genevie.
Brooklyn emerges as The Bachelor season's new "villain" after Christina's exit
After Christina Mandrell was sent packing, Brooklyn Willie reportedly emerged as The Bachelor season's new "villain."ADVERTISEMENT
Carbone heard that Brooklyn was a pot-stirrer and happened to be in the middle of a lot of the drama.
"But from all I've been told, [Brooklyn] just liked to instigate things that seemingly would keep her on TV," Carbone reported in his blog.
Something "unplanned" that "changes the landscape" of "the rest of the season" happens in London
After their time in the Bahamas, Zach and his 11 remaining The Bachelor bachelorettes reportedly flew to London, England for their fourth round of dates.Gabriella "Gabi" Elnicki received the first one-on-one date and got a rose, but then there were no other group dates or one-on-one dates in London.
For nearly two months, Carbone didn't know what happened in London and why Zach missed out on his other two dates, other than something "kinda [changed] the landscape of the show."
"I was told this is something production had zero control over and they were scrambling to figure out what to do," Carbone wrote earlier this year, adding that the incident was unplanned and "had a significant impact on the production of the show."

However on February 6, Carbone updated his spoilers and revealed that Zach had tested positive for coronavirus while in London. After his date with Gabi, the rest of Zach's dates were canceled as a result.
Carbone isn't sure whether any of the women caught COVID-19 as well.
Zach did his Rose Ceremony in London over Zoom

Mercedes Northup, who reportedly got food poisoning, was one of the two women and got eliminated in London.

Carbone knows that eleven women went to London and only seven women remained after two Rose Ceremonies -- one in London and one at their next destination.
Alyssa "Aly" Jacobs and Kylee Russell also were eliminated at some point, but Carbone isn't sure if they were sent packing in London or their next stop in Estonia.
Ariel and Charity get one-on-one dates in Estonia
Tallinn, Estonia is where Zach and his remaining bachelorettes reportedly traveled to after London.Charity Lawson received the first one-on-one date, and then Zach enjoyed a group date.
Ariel Frenkel accompanied the Bachelor on the second solo date of the week.

However, as previously mentioned, Carbone is unsure whether Alyssa "Aly" Jacobs and Kylee Russell were sent home while Zach and his bachelorettes were in London or Estonia.
Brooklyn gets sent home on a one-on-one date in Hungary
Zach went on two one-on-one dates in Budapest, Hungary with Kaitlyn "Kaity" Biggar and Brooklyn Willie.However, Zach reportedly denied Brooklyn a rose on their solo date.
Carbone isn't sure whether there was a formal Rose Ceremony in Hungary. It's possible that Zach just determined his Final 4 bachelorettes by handing out roses on his dates instead.
The other two women ousted by Zach in Hungary were Katherine "Kat" Izzo and Greer Blitzer.

Zach's Final 4 bachelorettes are Ariel, Charity, Gabi and Kaity
At the seventh Rose Ceremony, which took place in Hungary, Zach went from seven bachelorettes to only four women.Zach's Final 4 bachelorettes were Ariel Frenkel, Charity Lawson, Gabriella "Gabi" Elnicki, and Kaitlyn "Kaity" Biggar.
Gabi was caught reading Game of Roses' How to Win the Bachelor book during her stay at the mansion, so it's likely Gabi's intentions were questioned at some point in the process.
Ariel, Gabi and Kaity are Zach's Final 3 bachelorettes
Zach picked his Final 3 bachelorettes after the women's round of hometown dates.Zach visited Gabriella "Gabi" Elnicki in Vermont on October 31 and then Ariel Frenkel in New York on November 2.

After completing his round of hometown dates, Zach enjoyed his overnight Fantasy Suite dates in Krabi, Thailand.It's unclear whether he went into a Fantasy Suite with Ariel Frenkel, Gabriella "Gabi" Elnicki, or Kaitlyn "Kaity" Biggar -- or all of them.
In Carbone's new February 6 blog posting, he revealed that Ariel was eliminated at the Rose Ceremony following Zach's Fantasy Suite dates.
Zach's Final 2 bachelorettes are therefore Kaity and Gabi.

Carbone apparently received "some info this past weekend" about Zach's winner that he felt comfortable running with.
Zach recently told Deadline that he "wouldn't trade" his experience on the show for anything, even though he had to endure some "ups and downs" to get to the finish line.
