Arie's search for love gets off to a fast start with back-to-back one-on-one dates with Becca K. and Krystal. Arie lures away Becca K. to a truly Cinderella date. Once ensconced in their Malibu mansion, Arie introduces his date to a surprise guest: Rachel Zoe, fashion designer to the stars. Becca K. has the opportunity to try on a number of gowns and gives Arie a private fashion show. He not only has a big surprise for her, but he continues to amaze her with special gifts. But will he give her the biggest gift of all – a rose at the end of the evening? Krystal also captures a special one-on-one date with Arie, jumping on a private plane to his hometown of Scottsdale. Not only does she get a taste of what life would be like if she were to get the final rose, but she also gets to meet Arie's father, the two-time Indianapolis 500 winner, his mother and younger brother. Krystal is envious of the close-knit family Arie enjoys as hers is so different. At dinner that evening at the historic Bradbury building she recounts a heartbreaking story about her brother that brings her to tears.

The women learn that they must bang their cars into one another until only one is left with a working vehicle and emerges victorious. One woman is traumatized by her past experience with bumper cars, but most of the women embrace the opportunity to unleash some healthy aggression. The intense competition continues at the after party for Arie's time and attention.The cocktail party invites more conflicts between the women with two of them squaring off in the middle of the festivities. Three heartbroken bachelorettes go home as the remainder celebrate continuing on the journey to share Arie's love.
