The Bachelor

S09:É05 - S09:E05 - Episode 5

With only four bachelorettes remaining, Borghese feels the mounting pressure as he visits each of their respective hometowns--and receives some unexpected treatment. In Miami, he spends a spectacular day shark fishing with Jennifer, but when he meets her father, a high school football coach, it's obvious the man is extremely overprotective of his only daughter and is not impressed by the Bachelor's title of prince. After an awkward dinner, Jennifer's father shows off his other pride and joy to Borghese--his gun collection. And to make sure Borghese gets the message, he tells him he would have no problem using the weapons if anyone were to hurt his daughter! In San Diego, Borghese learns that Sadie's moral fortitude and sexual abstinence stem from her devout Christian family, who welcome him with open arms. The two share an intimate moment at the end of the day on a moonlit beach in front of a bonfire. There are more surprises in store for Borghese when he meets up with Lisa in Portland, Oregon. Lisa's friend visits, carrying a wedding gown for the marriage-obsessed Lisa to wear, which stuns the panicked Bachelor. Borghese finds out that Lisa has a definite timeline to wed and have children. As his potential future with Lisa flashes before his eyes, the prince is treated to an uncomfortable, impromptu Pilates session led by Lisa's mother. And in Venice, Italy--the first hometown date ever to take place in Europe--Borghese has difficulty communicating with Agnese's family because they don't speak any English. By sending one woman home in tears at the rose ceremony, an emotional Borghese reduces the field to three bachelorettes, all of whom will go on fantastic overnight dates with Borghese.
