AceShowbiz - Chris Soules went for what "could be the first date with [his] wife" in the second episode of "The Bachelor" season 19. Eight girls were eliminated in the season premiere, but Kimberly wasn't ready to leave, asking Chris to give her another chance. Much to the other girls' disappointment, he brought Kimberly back to the mansion.
Chris then had the first group date with Ashley I., Jade, Tara, Kimberly, Mackenzie and Tandra. The girls, clad in bikinis, enjoyed a pool party with Chris before having a tractor race. Ashley I. won the race and got to spend some alone time with Chris on the tractor.
Chris then ended the group date and took Mackenzie for a one-on-one date, but it didn't run smooth. She freaked Chris out by asking him if he believes in aliens and talking about his "big nose." She later dropped the bomb that she has a 1-year-old son, Kale.
"The fact that she's talking about aliens on the first date, does raise a few red flags for me," Chris told the camera. Still, he thinks she's "genuine" and they "have a lot of common," offering her a rose.
Back at the house, Juelia shared her heartbreaking story to the other girls that her husband committed suicide shortly after she gave birth to their daughter, Ireland. She's nervous about telling this to Chris, explaining, "It's not just telling him that I have a daughter, it's telling him that I've been through such drama, and I can't tell him that in five minutes."
Next was a one-on-one date with Megan. They boarded a private jet to Las Vegas and then took a helicopter ride over the Hoover Dam before having a picnic at the Grand Canyon, Arizona. Megan opened up that her father passed away of a massive heart attack after she auditioned for "The Bachelor" and her mother encouraged her to "take that leap of faith" and join the show. Chris told her, "I'm lucky you're here," and kissed her before giving her a rose.
Kelsey, Trina, Alissa, Tracy, Jillian, Becca, Amber, Ashley S., Juelia, Kaitlyn and Britt, meanwhile, were in the second group date which was thrilling. When their limos made a stop at a pitch-black field, they were scared by some zombies.
The girls were later divided into three teams to play paintball against the zombies. During the game, Ashley S. acted like a "crazy girl," shooting the other girls instead of the zombies and speaking things which didn't make sense. Chris noticed this and said, "She has moments of saying like really intelligent things and then kinda drifts off into something I don't understand."
Some girls had a chance to spend some alone time with Chris. Juelia told him about her daughter but apparently she wasn't ready to share about her husband's tragic death. Britt continued to charm Chris as he admitted, "You knocked me off my feet," but it's Kaitlyn, who knew how to make him laugh, who got the rose.
At the cocktail party, Jordan was drunk again. "Cheers to Jordan, she's drunk tonight, she was drunk yesterday, she was drunk the day before, she's gonna be drunk tomorrow," Mackenzie commented. Meanwhile, Ashley I. revealed to Mackenzie that she's a virgin.
At the end of the night, Chris gave roses to Britt, Ashley I., Trina, Kelsey, Samantha, Juelia, Amber, Tracy, Nikki, Jillian, Jade, Becca, Carly, Whitney and Ashley S. Kimberly was sent home for the second time, along with Tara, Tandra, Jordan and Alissa.
