AceShowbiz - Ben Flajnik is a step closer to reveal the girl who wins his heart after narrowing it down to two in the latest episode of "The Bachelor". Before making the decision, he spent some romantic time with Nikki, Lindzi and Courtney in Switzerland.
His first fantasy date was with Nicki. They were taken by a helicopter to a mountaintop, where they had a picnic. On the night, they entered a cabin log and talked about how many kids they want to have.
Ben then showed Nicki the fantasy suite card, and she accepted it. "I'm not a cocky person, but I'm confident I could make you so happy," so she told him before they hopped in the hot tub.
Next, it was Lindzi's turn to have a date with Ben. They were rappelling down a cliff. They were lowered down slowly, but Ben could not hide his nervousness as saying, "Oh my god." Once stepping on the ground, they went relaxing in a hot tub.
At dinner, Lindzi expressed her hope that she gets a proposal from Ben at the end of the show. The two later headed to the fantasy suite.
For the last date, Ben and Courtney took a train to a small village. They had a picnic there, during which the model claimed she tried to be nice to the other girls. In the evening, Courtney once again talked about the matter, saying, "I feel bad that this did bring out the worst in me at times... I'm not proud of that."
Ben was happy that Courtney has opened up and they went on by heading to the fantasy suite. They put on matching green bathing suits and got into a hot tub.
Coming as a surprise for Ben, Kacie B. returned to ask why she was eliminated after the hometown dates because she didn't see it coming. "For me, I kind felt like we were worlds apart," Ben explained. "Did I see you in the end? No. And the last thing I wanted to do was drag it out longer for you. That was my way of protecting you."
Before leaving with a broken heart, Kacie once again warned Ben about Courtney, "Because I do love you and I do care about you, I don't want to see you get your heart broken again. And I feel like...if you were to choose Courtney, you would get your heart broken."
Before the rose ceremony, host Chris Harrison asked Ben if he wanted Kacie to be at the rose ceremony. The bachelor turned down the offer and soon announced his final two. He gave the roses to Lindzi and Courtney, dumping Nikki.
"I'm sorry," Ben said before explaining, "I started to have doubts." Nikki said, "I just hope you're making the right decision," and cried in the limo. "I was in love with him ... I feel kind of like a fool for falling so hard and so fast for somebody who wasn't sure," she sobbed.
