\hJennifer: Previously on "Farmer Wants A Wife"...

Oh, my God.

...Meghan returned \hto Hunter’s farm.

You here for good? You just visiting?

That’s your decision, \h\h\h\h\h\hnot mine.

\hProducer: How is it to see Meghan return?

Great. Yeah.

When have you given me \h\h\h\h\ha compliment?

Allen and Cassidy Jo \h\hcalled it quits.

I’m not arguing with you.

You have to come back down \h\h\h\h\h\h\hto real life

and just recognize \h\hit’s not there.

Jennifer: And Lily walked away \h\h\h\h\hfrom Ryan’s ranch...

I don’t see myself being \h\h\hwith Ryan long term \h\h\hor even short term.

\h\h\h\h...leaving both Allen and Ryan down to their final two ladies.

- Welcome to our tub. - ( laughs )

But Landon and Hunter...

We got another letter \h\h\hfrom Jennifer.

...still need to pick \h\htheir final two.

"You’ll visit the women \h\h\hwhere they live."

\h"And they’ll introduce you to their friends and family."

\h"I need you decide who those two women will be."

"Tonight."

In Georgia, Hunter faces \h\ha difficult decision.

\hWithout a doubt in this process,

this is singlehandedly \hthe hardest decision

that I’ve had to date.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: Due to Meghan’s return,

\h\h\h\h\hhe will now need to say good-bye

to two ladies tonight.

\h\hIt’s tough, like, listening your heart

and having the guts \h\h\hto follow it.

Because, I mean, I genuinely see a potential of something

with each and every one \h\h\h\h\hof you here.

\h\hToday caught me off guard with having to send two home.

\h\hStephanie is one somebody can truly build a life with.

And then Meghan, for me,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hthere was an instant connection.

\h\h\hI think DeVonne is an amazing person. \h\h\hShe’s awesome.

\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd Sydney, she’s a gorgeous girl.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI mean, we have a lot in common.

It’s tough.\h\h\h\hI don’t like hurting anybody’s feelings, you know?

I think that’s what makes \h\hthis journey so real.

\h- Miss DeVonne, would you \h\hlike to go have a chat? - I’d love to, yeah.

DeVonne: I am just a ball \h\hof nerves right now.

I think he’s an amazing man.

\h\h\h\hI think that he has great values.

I really, really, really like him.

\h\h\hBut I am nervous my heart will get hurt.

How are you doing as a whole?

I don’t know.

There’s just a lot going on \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hin my head,

\h\hand I’m trying to be optimistic about it all.

You know, it’s such a weird \h\h\hpredicament to be in.

You bring so much joy around.

- You know, it’s a refreshing \h\h\hthing for me honestly... - Thank you.

that, uh-- what I admire,

just-- just the free spirit.

On the flipside of that though,

\h\h\h\h\hI’m not gonna be able to just drop what I’m doing...

- Pick up and go, yeah. - ...pick and go and do \h\hanything like that.

- And it’s-- yeah. - I don’t expect you to.

\h\hThat’s nothing I would ask of you.

Well, on the same token \h\h\h\h\h\h\hof that,

\h\h\h\hI can’t-- I can’t be the person that cages you in.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI think you’re absolutely amazing,

\h\h\h\h\h\hand I know that you’re gonna make somebody

the happiest man in the world.

\h\h\hI just don’t believe that we’re gonna work out.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI’m sorry it has to end this way.

At the end of the day,

my number one is trying \h\hto find my person,

and I hope one day \h\hI can have that

- with my future. - Yeah.

Can I give you a hug?

Thank you.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDeVonne: I really liked Hunter.

\hAnd I’m really, really, really...

I’m really, really thankful \h\h\hfor this experience,

\h\h\hbut rejection is a hard feeling.

Shoot, this is tough.

\h\hI wanna leave this with my head held high.

♪ So burn like the wildfire

\h\hI’m really, really thankful for all the friendships I made,

\h\hand I know that God has a person for me out there.

\h\hJennifer: Over in Oklahoma, Landon has come to a decision.

\hI hate that today was such a fun day

and has to end the way \h\h\h\h\hthat it does.

Unfortunately, it has to \h\h\h\h\hat some point.

I mean, you’re sitting there \h\h\h\h\h\hwith three girls

\h\hwho’ve been a part of your life for weeks

that you’ve come to know \h\h\h\h\hand care about.

And as I look around at them,

\h\h\h\h\hit makes any clarity I had kind of fog up a little.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hTwo people here, I think are significantly closer

to where I’m at in life.

And Zoe, like, you’ve spent \h\h\h\hand worked so hard

\hto get yourself exactly \h\hwhere you need to be and where you want to be.

Unfortunately, I don’t think

we’re at the same points \h\h\hin life right now.

\h\hI’ve always kind of gone for the fun, energetic, spontaneous,

\h\h\h\hyou know, live life by the seat of their pants girls,

and it hasn’t worked out.

Right now I need someone \h\hwho’s a little closer \h\h\h\hto where I’m at.

- I am so damn sorry. - It’s okay.

I’ll miss y’all, ladies.

\h\h\h\h\h\hI’ve learned a lot of lessons in life

that have taken me \h\hyears to learn,

\h\h\h\hand I’m not in a point in life

\h\h\h\h\h\hwhere I can really afford to learn

\hanother three, four year lesson.

Thank you.

I mean, it sucks to be rejected,

\h\h\h\h\h\hand I feel like that wasn’t really, like...

\h\h...a good answer or reasoning almost.

And I’ve told him \h\hwhere I’m at,

\hand I feel like he just kind of wants to believe

what he wants to believe.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd, I mean, I can’t change a man’s mind,

so I trust that he’s making \h\h\h\hthe right decision

and that he has a connection \h\h\h\h\hwith someone here,

and I guess I’ll keep looking.

\h- ♪ I’m all right - Thank you. See ya.

♪ I’m all right

Jennifer: Back in Georgia, \halthough Hunter has said \h\h\hgood-bye to DeVonne,

\h\h\hhe still has to send another lady home tonight.

Stephanie: I think it is hard \hto tell who’s gonna be here

\h\hand who’s not because Hunter still is guarded,

and you never really know \h\h\hwhat he’s thinking.

\h\hSo I really hope that he would want to \h\h\hkeep me around.

But, yeah, I don’t know.

I was feeling a little guilty \h\h\hwith me coming back in.

They’re both great girls, but I came back for him.

Sydney: I think Hunter is a phenomenal person.

\hThere is always that chance and possibility \hthat I’m not the one,

but I really hope that maybe I am.

It doesn’t get any easier \h\has this whole thing,

you know, dwindles down.

\h\h\hBut I have to keep following my gut and keep \h\h\hfollowing my heart,

and as painful as it is \hfor me to say, um...

But, uh...

\h\hMiss Stephanie, I think our journey’s over in this,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hand I wish you every happiness in the world.

\hI just want you to know that I did not take this decision lightly at all.

At all. I am just...

\h\h\hI think the fact that we’re both equally guarded \h\h\h\hon a lot of things,

\h\h\hthat it’s-- I think it would be tough for us

to break those down together.

\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd I hope you’ll understand that,

and I wish you everything \h\h\h\h\h\hin the world.

Everything.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hStephanie: \h\hIt’s really hard for me to express myself at times

because I’ve always \h\h\hbeen guarded.

I mean, I’ve been hurt.

( music playing )

So it’s hard for me to say exactly how I’m feeling at times.

- I hope you understand. - Mm-hmm.

I’m definitely sad about the situation

\hbecause I feel like there really was something there.

But I think Hunter is an amazing guy,

\h\h\hand I really wish him the best.

- You want a hug? - You okay?

Yes, I do.

\h\h\hI’m definitely feeling overwhelmed.

Can I hug you, too?

\h\hI just had to go with where my heart was telling me to go,

and Stephanie handled it \hwith grace, integrity,

\h\h\hand maturity, and, you know, I respect that \h\h\hso much about her.

\h\h\hToday was a lot of tough decisions...

Thank you so much.

...but the toughest decision is just ahead down the road.

\h\hJennifer: Coming up...

Now that we have you all alone, I have a couple questions.

...our farmers head \h\hto the cities.

Do you have a softer side?

\h\h\h\h\h\hDo you think she’s gonna be you pick?

So are you over your ex-wife?

But meeting friends \h\h\h\hand family

\h\h\h\hmeans lots of tough questions.

- Wow. - This is a gift for you guys.

A B and a S for ( bleep ).

Do you love her then?

\h\h\h\hI think I can, but I’m gonna wanna be

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI’ve got two stunningly beautiful women

\h\h\h\h\hthat are both extremely intelligent, \hgreat personalities.

I’m truly not looking forward \h\h\h\h\h\hto this decision.

\h\h\h\hIs this a place you could see yourself,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hyou know, for a little bit of time?

\h\h\h\h\hI mean, yes, it does feel like home.

But my great grandmother’s place is back in Tennessee.

\h\h\h\h\hSo we would have to have that talk in the future.

Maybe good-bye, Georgia, \h\h\h\hhello, Tennessee?

Oh!

It definitely raised \h\h\h\h\han eyebrow,

the fact, you know, she may not see herself here long-term.

How would you see yourself \h\h\h\h\hfitting into life \h\h\h\h\h\hin the country?

\h\h\hI don’t need the city. I don’t need really anything, \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hbut people.

That’s fair.

It’s kind of nice that it’s down to the final two here

\hwhere we can actually put the final pieces of \hthe puzzle together.

Do you think your daughter \h\h\h\hwould like it here?

\h\h\h\h\hI do think that she could be happy here.

- So, with your family... - Yes?

...who do I have to \h\hwatch out for?

\h- My sister. - Your sister?

- Good morning. - Good morning.

\h\h\h\h\h\hRyan: Sara V, she is the type of person

\h\h\h\h\hthat I can connect with easily.

I’m always content and happy \h\h\h\hwhen I’m around her.

- This is my home now. - Yeah.

\h\h\hI know where everything is. I know where all the dishes are.

I know where more things \h\h\h\h\hare than you do

- in your own house. - In my house.

- Yeah. - Yeah.When comes to Sarah H,

\h\h\h\h\h\hI think that we are on the same page,

but there’s work to be done \h\h\hin that relationship.

What could be challenging \h\h\h\h\h\h\hbeing here?

- I think I would miss the city. - Mm-hmm.

Like, I mean, the reality is \hmy friends don’t live here.

- Right, right, right. - So I think that that \hwould be really hard,like, starting over.

\h\h\hThere’s still parts that I have adored about being here,

\h\h\h\hbut it also has shown me how much I love my life as well.

( music playing )

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hKhelsi: It’s pretty bittersweet, \hbecause I love it here,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hand I feel like I’ve formed such a connection

with the place itself.

So I’ll be sad to leave,

but hopefully I’ll have more times on the farm.

\hRebecca: I’ve always known I wanna live in the country,

\h\h\hbut this experience has only reinforced that.

There’s a lot of memories here,

and it just feels like

another place to call home.

- Hey, you ready to go? - I sure am.

Let me get your bag for you.

I’d choose either one \h\h\hof these women

every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

\h\h\h\hThis whole thing is just incredibly hard,

and I wasn’t prepared \h\h\h\h\h\hfor that.

- You all set? - Yep.

Well, until Nashville I guess.

You know, it’s a balancing act, and we’re splitting frog hairs

\h\has to which way the teeter totters.

Ryan: I am so confused,

\hso lost in trying to figure this out.

\h\hI wanna say I’m trusting in my heart in this process,

\h\hbut a part of my heart is kinda torn a little bit.

\h\h\hAnd I think my mind and my heart is battling,

and my gut has yet to speak.

- Landon: Bye, girls. - Bye!

- Don’t miss us too much. - Can’t promise that.

If either of these girls \h\h\h\h\hmoved out here, \h\hI’d be beyond lucky.

The difficult part will be I have to tell one of them

that I feel stronger \h\habout the other.

I am going to Ashley R’s \h\h\h\h\h\hhouse today.

\hAshley R, she’s that person who’s gonna brighten your day \h\hno matter how bad it was.

- Good morning, Bru. - Hi, Bru.

Hi. Be nice.

She seems like the person \h\h\h\hwho turns a house \h\h\h\h\hinto the home.

There we go, Bru.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: Today he’s meeting her mom,

sister, and daughter Harper.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLandon: \hI’ve never been introduced to someone’s daughter before.

It’s a little nerve-wracking.

I come from a tight family,I want the little kids \h\h\h\hrunning around,

and there’s a lot of benefits \hraising kids where I live.- Watch yourself. - Eep!

But I’m not completely \hcertain Harper would like life on the farm,

so that’s a big concern for me.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAshley: \hIt’s been a few days since I’ve seen Landon,

and I’m excited for him \h\h\h\h\hto get here.

He said he’s never dated anyone with kids before,

\h\hso he might be pooping his pants right now, but...

I know my sister’s got tons \h\h\hof questions for him, \h\h\h\has well as my mom.

So, you know, I’m like, \h"Go ahead. Ask away."

- Hello! - Well, hey, gorgeous.

- Welcome to Florida. - Hi.

\h( squeals ) How are you?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLandon: Didn’t think I was gonna \h\h\hmiss you this much.

\h\h\h\h\h\hOoh, really? I definitely missed you.

- Wow. - Harper will be getting home from school in a little bit.

So are you nervous? \hAre you excited?

- Oh, I’m nervous. Yeah. - You’re nervous?

\h\h\hIt’s been a long time since I’ve been introduced \h\h\hto anybody’s family.

\h\hAnd never been introduced to someone’s daughter before.

- ( muted chatter ) - Ashley: Hi!

Hi, hon.

- Hi. - How are y’all?

- Hi, Harper. How was school? - Good.

- Hi. I’m Landon. - Hi. Nice to meet you.

- I’m Linda. - Hi, I’m Katy.

- Katy, nice to meet you. - Ashley: This is Landon.

\h\h\hDid we get you out of school early?

- Yeah. - Yeah?

\h\h\h\h\h\hSo your mom had a favorite cow at my ranch

\h\hthat was black and white just like your cat is, so...

- He’s right there. - Landon: Yeah, I know. \hI love him.

Thank you.

Ashley: She really loved \h\h\hthe stuffed animal \h\h\h\h\h\hhe gave her.It was cute.

\h- What are you gonna \h\hname him, Harper? - Chico.

- ( chirps ) - Landon: Oh, you have birds.

- Yeah. - So it likes you?

- No. He’ll attack me. - No?

\hYeah, it was trying to get me too, so...

\h\hLandon: Harper was a little shy at first, but she’s a sweet girl.

\h\h\h\h\h\hShe just has that same fun personality \h\h\hthat her mom does.

Jennifer: After meeting \hher daughter Harper,

\hLandon now faces questions from Ashley’s mom and sister.

Now that we have you all alone, I have a couple questions.

- I know my mom does, too. \h- I’m not worried at all.

\h\hSo what made you decide to move forward with Ashley \h\h\h\h\has the final two?

She just has this amazing \h\h\hcontagious energy.

And she’s just so cute \h\h\h\h\h\hand bubbly,

but also one of the purest \h\hand most sincere people \hI’ve met in a long time.

\h\h\h\hAnd that was the very first thing I noticed about her.

\h\h\hAnd then having not even met Harper,

\h\h\h\hI could already tell how good of a mother she was.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAnd I think that says more about someone \h\h\h\h\hthan anything else.

\h\h\h\h\h\hDo you think that you’d be a good dad?

I hope so.

\h\h\h\h\h\hI feel like I had a great example,

\h\h\h\h\h\hand that’s kind of all I have to go off of, so...

I don’t see him yet \has a family man.

Um, I think he still has \ha lot of growing to do.

\hEverything that he said \h\h\h\hseemed very kind, but also kind of generic,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hyou know, something that I would hear

somebody who just met her say.

So do you love her then?

- Oh, we’re not going there. - I wanna go there.

\h\h\h\hLandon: Her sister doesn’t hold anything back,

dropping questions about \h\h\h\h\h\h\hthe L word.

( stammering )

Uh, this-- hmm.

\h\h\h\hAnd in all honesty, I promise you I’d tell her \h\h\h\hbefore I told you.

\h\h\hOh, so you haven’t said anything yet? Okay.

Mm-mm. Nope.

\hYou either kind of know or you don’t, so what was \h\ha little concerning.

\h\h\h\h\hWhy do you think \h\h\h\hshe should pick you if she makes it to the end?

\h\hI don’t know what she’s seen, but I guess I’m glad she saw it.

She hasn’t told me \hwhat it is, but--

So if you find out, please let me know.

that I’m not getting \h\h\hout of him yet.

Oh, you’re gonna do so good. \h\h\h\hThey’re so friendly.\h\h\h\h\h\hTheir opinion really does matter to me,

and it’s who she is, too.

- So I have a question for you. - Yes, sir.

What would be, you’d say, \hyour biggest sacrifice you’ve made in your life?

Huh.

But it got really serious \h\h\h\h\h\hreally quick.

Being there for my mom when \hwe lost my older brother.

\h\h\hHe was nine years old, and I was seven at the time.

And I had to start working \h\h\h\h\h\hat 12 years old

to help financially \hwith everything.

And I was so young at the time

that it didn’t feel \hlike a sacrifice.

It felt like a responsibility.

How’s your relationship \hwith your mom today?

Solid.

\h\hAll right, so, Ryan, would you like to go see \h\h\h\h\hthe speakeasy?

- Yes, please. - Tammy: Sara needs somebody who’s very lovingand very attentive to her.

- Wow. Oh, it smells so good. - What do you think?

She is always searching \h\h\h\hfor affection.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hShe thinks that that is what shows you love.

- All right, \hso let’s talk, my friend. - Yes.

Do you have a softer side?

What do you do to show Sara that you do appreciate her?

So I haven’t had to dig into \hthat softer side that much.

\h\h\hTammy: In the few days that Sara has been back home,

\hher communication is very clear that,

\h\h\h"Well, I don’t know what he feels about me."

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hSo clearly that’s not coming through.

You know, the thing about Sara \h\h\h\h\his she just gets it.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYou know, women are not mind readers.

Um, yeah.

Being vulnerable, growing up,

there was very little time for,

because I had to grow up so fast at such a young age.

But it’s not out of reach.

\h\h\h\hYou know, it’s one of those things where I do \h\h\hwanna be vulnerable.

\h\h\h\h\hI’ve just been so out of touch with that side \h\hof myself for so long.

How willing are you to change?

I should definitely work \h\hon my vulnerability.

\h\h\h\h\hit’s now dad’s turn to offer some timely advice.

\h\hI wish he would tell Sara exactly what he was feeling,

\hbut most men have a very difficult time doing that.

She needs somebody \h\hto pursue her.

\h\hShe has an ego, and she’s not gonna \h\hcome after you.

So if you like her, you gotta \hshow her that you like her.

You gotta answer that phone call.

\h\h\hYou gotta send that sweet text back.

If you don’t make an effort, \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hshe runs.Yeah, yeah, yeah.

\h\hI’d like to say that I don’t put up a barrier,

but truthfully speaking, \h\h\h\h\hI probably hold \h\h\h\hsome things back.

\h\h\h\hBut I’ve taken advice from her mom and then her dad \h\h\h\h\h\h\hto be more open

and to just grow and become \h\h\hthe man I want to be.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: \h\hAfter spending the day with her family in Orlando,

\h\h\h\hLandon and Ashley R have some final alone time.

I’m so glad you could be here.

\h\h\hI was so excited for you to get here and meet everybody.

\h\h\h\hI loved seeing \h\hthe support system you have in place here

- because it is a fantastic one. - Aww, thank you.

- Yeah, I’m very lucky. - Your sister asked me,

she’s like, "So would you say \h\hyou’re in love with her?"

Oh, my God.

Yeah, I was like, "Holy!", \h\hbeing put on the spot.

- That would be hard. \hThat would be hard to answer. - Yeah.

- Yeah. - Ashley: I definitely have a soft spot for Landon.

There’s an easy chemistry.

\h\h\h\hI feel like I’m ready for love.

I know it was not easy \hbeing the first date

and having to sit back watch me go on this date and that date.

- Yeah. - I’m so thankful \h\hyou stuck around.

It means a lot that you’d trust the connection we had

because I never doubted it.

\h\h\h\h\h\hLandon: She’s just amazing.

\h\hComing to her home and meeting her family,

it just kind of reignited \h\h\hany of those coals

that had just been \h\hsitting there.

\h\h\h\hI feel like we know we have a good connection,

\hand I just want you to make the decision that’s best for you.

You’re so damn amazing.

\h\hAll right, well, I guess you gotta go.

I don’t want you to leave, \h\hbut I know you have to.

Thank you so much.

I will see you soon.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hSara V: Well, welcome to my neighborhood.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hRyan: I went to play basketball \h\h\hone time years ago.

Now I gotta see what you have. \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLet me see it.

\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: Out in California,

\h\hafter a visit with her family,

\h\h\h\hSara V and Ryan are spending that all important \h\h\halone time together.

\h- Ah! - Ooh.

I’m asking for one thing. \h\h\h\h\h\hReady? Look.

\hIf you were to look at a piece of paper--

\h\h\h\h\hwe’re back in high school now, right?

\h\h\h"Do you like me? Check yes or check no."

- Check yes. - Oh!

- You do know how to say it. - What, yes? What?

You know how to actually \hsay your real emotions.

You never say anything \h\h\h\h\h\hlike that.

\h\h\h\h\hWell, no, I mean, I thought you’d known that.

\hNo, see, that’s the problem. That’s exactly what I’m saying.

\h\h\h\hYou don’t know how to actually express things.

- Yeah, you can’t read my mind. - No, I can’t.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hSara V: I finally got to drag some \h\h\h\hfeelings out of him

to where he could say out loud \h\h\hlike, "Yeah, I like you."

But I do want to see him \h\h\h\h\halso pursue me.

\h\h\h\h\hThrough this process, I’ve felt that I’ve always knew

that this is where I would be, \h\h\h\h\hright here with you.

And nothing has really changed from that. So--

Because I wanna be with someone where I can grow with.

I think with Sara V, \h\hI understand her.

- Like, she understands me. - Take the shot.

\hRyan: So I’m starting to feel closer to her.

( laughing )

But I’m also off to New York

to see Sarah with an H.

\h\hHaving to choose one is where the dilemma is.

All right, you can have \h\h\h\hone more shot.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMy heart and my mind and my gut

\h\hare just all over the place right now.

- Oh, and a perfect swish? \h- ( indistinct chatter )

Ooh!

So hopefully we make \hthe best decision.

♪ What I wanted at 17

♪ Was the same thing at 23

Jennifer: Allen is on his way \h\h\h\hto Columbus, Georgia

\h\h\h\h\hto meet the first of his two ladies-- Khelsi.

♪ Somehow I got pushed \h\h\h\hoff the beam ♪

\hAllen: I am looking for someone to marry

and raise a family with

and spend the rest \hof my life with.

Khelsi is bubbly and really \h\h\h\h\hfun to be around.

I feel like we just click.

- You’ve got a fish. - ( squeals )

But she hasn’t been \hin the lifestyle.

\h\h\h\hIt’s something that she’s gonna have to learn.

- ( gagging ) - They’re gonna be sick! \hOh, Lord.

\h\h\hIt is a very difficult decision,

and I’m really hoping that \hmaybe these family visits\h\h\hwill bring just a little bit of light

and help me make a decision on what it is I’m gonna do.

( music continues )

\h\h\h\hI’m not much of a city kind of person.

It’s no exactly my world.

But I really look forward to \h\h\hspending even more time

\hwith Khelsi today around her hometown

and meeting her family \h\hand her friends for \h\h\h\hthe first time.

And I can only be me, but at the same time,

you know, you hope that they like me.

( music continues )

- There he is. - Hi!

- Hi, how are you? - Hey. Good to see you.

You, too. This is Amanda.

\h\hI’m Allen Foster. Pleasure to meet you.- This is my dad. - Hey. Allen Foster.

- Jason Stone. \h\h\hNice to meet you. \h- Good to meet you. Mimi.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hKhelsi: I was super nervous with him \h\h\h\hmeeting the family...

Good to meet you. \hYeah. You, too.

I just really, really wanna \h\h\h\hbe with him so bad.

- I like your jacket. - Thank you.

He just has all the qualities \h\hthat I want in a husband,

and I really hope they’ll see that.

\h\hSo how’s it been having all the folks on the farm?

You know, it has been very, \h\h\h\h\hvery interesting.

- Um... - Yeah.

How did Khelsi do with the animals?

\h\hI think the cow manure was just a little more than \hsome of them could take,

- and she might’ve \h\h\hbeen one of ’em. - It was on my hands.

\h\hIs your family and all, y’all live all right there \h\h\h\h\hin the same town?

We all live within 20 minutes \h\h\h\hof each other or so.

Sunday after church, we all eat lunch at Mama’s house.

That’s a given.

\h\h\hTraditions can get lost sometimes as people pass on,

- and you miss it, right? - Yeah, you really do.

- Yeah. - Jason: You don’t meet \hpeople like him every day

\h\h\h\hthat they seem to stay true to their roots \hand where he came from.

I think he’s a genuine guy.

So when we gonna go \h\h\hride horses?

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hAllen: Whenever you’re ready. \h\h\h\h\hCome anytime.

What y’all doing this weekend?

\h\h\h\h\hAllen: Her family and friends were just like \hI thought they would be.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hYou know, we’re just kind of cut

from the same cloth \h\h\hif you will.

Maybe that cloth has a little \h\hdifferent pattern to it,

\h\h\h\hbut it’s made of the same material,

and I think that goes \h\h\h\h\ha long way.

- You wanna go talk? Okay. - Sure.

\hAllen: I’ve dealt with girl best friends before.

- The best friend \h\hinterview, right? - That’s right.

You know, they’re always \h\h\h\hsuper protective.- Yeah. - Let me have it. I’m good.

\h\hI’m not raking over the coals, but, I mean,

- I do need to kind of \hdo my due diligence. - Sure. Absolutely.

\h\h\hThey’re willing to ask questions that maybe the girl \h\h\h\hyou’re interested in

is not willing to ask \hright off the bat.

\hTell me a little bit about your previous relationships.

My last recent relationship, \h\h\h\h\h\h\hI was married.

I think somewhere along the way

\h\h\hher idea changed of the life she wanted.

\h\h\h\hAnd if you don’t-- if you both aren’t willing \h\h\h\h\h\hto work at that

and make each other’s \h\h\hdreams happen,

then it just doesn’t work.

So are you over your ex-wife?

\h\h\h\h\h\hNo doubt. No question about it.

So when I’m done with you, \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI’m done.

He’s been married before.

I do think he’s willing

to give love and marriage \h\h\h\h\h\hanother shot.

\h\h\h\hSo I just hope \h\hI get the approval and everyone loves him.

Jennifer: Allen will now give \h\h\h\hKhelsi and her family

time to compare notes.

He told me about his ex-wife.

- I kind of asked him, \h\h"Are you over her?" - Yeah.

- And I feel good about \hthe way he answered. Yeah. - You did?

- You thought it was genuine? - Yes, I do feel it was genuine.

I trust my best friend \h\h\hwith everything,

\h\h\h\h\hand she came back with all positive reviews,

and it’s just like, \h\h\h"Oh, my God.

Is this too good to be true?"

\h\h\hThey just love him. They’re raving about him.

Thank you for your hospitality,

and it’s been a pleasure \h\hto meet all of y’all.- You guys have been great. - Yeah.

Khelsi, you mind showing me \h\h\haround a little bit?

I knew him and my dad were gonna be like two peas in a pod,

but it 1,000% solidified it.

Be home by 10.

\h\h\h\h\hAllen: You got it. 8:30.

8:30 at the latest.

( music playing )

\h\hJennifer: Hunter’s on his way to Nashville

\h\h\h\h\hto meet the first of his two ladies-- Sydney.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hHunter: Sydney and I connect on,

\hyou know, our really outgoing personalities.

\h- ( squeals ) - ( laughing )

We fire on a lot \h\hof cylinders.

We’re very career driven,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hand that’s an important thing for me,

and the engine’s finally starting to stoke for us.

\h\h\h\hI see a lot of potential there.

Meeting family’s a big step \h\h\hin any relationship.

\h\hSydney’s a pistol, and I’m really excited

\hto meet the people that loaded that gun.

\hSydney: I do think that I am falling for Hunter.

\h\h\h\hHe has a smile that lights up a room.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDo I think he’s an exceptional man? \h\h\h\h\h\h\hAbsolutely.

\h\h\h\h\hI am beyond excited for Hunter to see my people.

♪ With days like this

- Hey. - There she is.

- How are you? - I’m good. How are you?

- Glad to be back home? \h- Yes. Hunter, this is \hmy mama, Tracy.\h- Hi. - Hey.

\h\hMy mom’s opinion has always taken the forefront of my life.

- And this is \h\hher best friend Scotty. \h- Hey, Scotty. I’m Hunter.

- Nice to meet you. - I am motivated by making sure

that I don’t disappoint \h\h\h\h\h\hmy family.

We’re excited to meet you.

\h\hWithout her blessing, I will not move forward.

Okay, well, I am going \hto go get you a drink

- and leave y’all \h\h\hhere for a minute. \h- Oh, goodness. All right.

\h\h\hKind of wishing Sydney had hung around a little bit. \h\h\hI didn’t need a drink.

I just needed her there \h\h\h\h\hto buffer me.

\h\h\h\hSo have you done a lot of dating, Hunter, \hlike, before the show?

\hI’ve only had a couple long-term relationships.

- We just didn’t click, \hyou know? - Just didn’t work?

\h\h\h\h\hWhat do you think makes Sydney click? Like...

I wish I could tell you! \h\hLike, it just-- we--

when I say we fire on \ha lot of cylinders,

I’m talking about we got a smooth running engine.

Like, everything--

Do you think she’s gonna \h\h\h\h\h\hbe your pick?

Like, I need to get prepared.

It’s, um...

She’s got a large chunk \h\h\h\h\hof my heart,

I won’t lie to you there.

- And she is \hso career oriented... - Yes.

\h\h...and all geared toward all that and--

like, do you want \hchildren soon?

Sooner rather than later.

I’m 31, and that plays \h\hheavily in my mind.

In your head? Yeah.

\h\h\h\hBut those are huge life decisions.

Big, big life decisions.But I think she is young,

and I think she has pursued \ha career all of her life,

and I think that’s important \h\h\h\h\hto her at her age.

\h\hMiss Tracy was asking some deep cut questions,

and I respect her for asking those.

\h- There she is. - Hey, you guys.

- Hey! - Were your ears burning?

I was worried about y’all, \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hfor sure.

I appreciate the fact that she’s asking the questions

that get straight to the heart \h\hof where my intentions lie \h\h\h\h\h\hwith her daughter.

- Thank you so much. - Cheers!

\h\h\h\hThat’s what these hometown visits are for.

\h\h\h\hI’m learning what works for them.But at the end of the day,

in order for both parties \h\h\h\h\h\hto be happy,

\h\h\h\h\hI’ve gotta figure out what’ll make me happy as well.

Jennifer: Figuring the ladies \hwould like a private chat,

- Hunter excuses himself \h\hfrom the table. \h- Okay.

Well, um, how did that go \h\h\h\hwhile I was gone?

\h\h\h\hI think it went okay. I think he’s very optimistic.

He’s ready for a family \hpretty soon in life,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI mean, ’cause he’s much older than you, so...

Do you want to have kids \h\h\h\h\hin three years?

\h\h\h\h\h\hIs that where you see yourself in three years?

\h\hLike, I don’t know, I mean, I know it’s not \h\h\ha true timeline,

- but I’m just saying-- - No. Yeah, I mean, \hthat’s a valid point.

I mean, you’re just getting \hstarted in your industryand have done really well in it.

- Yeah, I know. \h\h- And do you wanna \h\hgive up all that?

That’s a lot to think about.

I’m a little conflicted \h\h\h\h\h\hright now.

\h\h\h\hI think Hunter is a phenomenal person.

Hi!

I’m not saying I have to be \h\h\hin Nashville forever.

I could make farm life work.

\h\h\hBut I need that reassurance that he can make this work, too.

- Thank y’all so much \h\hfor coming tonight. - Thank you.

\h- It’s been such an honor \h\h\hto meet all of y’all. - Nice to meet you.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: With the clock ticking on their time together,

\hKhelsi takes Allen for a romantic stroll along the riverbank.

I can’t get over this river. \h\h\h\h\h\hIt’s really cool.

\hYeah, this is, like, key point of Columbus.

They do a lot out here \h\h\h\hin the summer.

\h\h\h\h\h\hAllen: Yeah? I can’t believe how clear \h\h\h\h\h\hthe water is.

The wind’s got your hair \h\h\h\h\hall jacked up.

Can you help me? \hI’m on camera.

Well, you look great. Relax.

\h\h\h\hI really did enjoy meeting your family today.

- Amanda kind of raked me \hover the coals a little bit. - Did she?

\h\h\h\hYeah, she asked me some pretty tough questions

about my past relationships \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hand, um,

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hyou know, was I ready to move on?

And, um, I...

You’re scaring me.

Am I-- I’m scaring you? \h\h\hDon’t be scared.

- I am sure of who I am... - Mm-hmm.

...and sure of where \hI’m at in my life.

- And, you know, \h\hI hope she can see that. - Yeah.

\h\hKhelsi: I am falling for everything about him.

It doesn’t come easy for me. \h\h\hLike, I’m pretty picky.

So when I know I care, \h\hlike, it’s all in,

\h\hand I just hope he feels the same.

I picture it all now.

\hI’m not looking forward to the decision I’ve gotta make.

- You know? It’s-- - Yeah?

I know it’s tough on you.

It’s honestly a lot harder than I thought it would be.

You’re just gonna have to \h\h\hfollow your heart.

- I know, go with my gut. - Yep.

Ugh, it’s scary.

Allen: I enjoyed my time with Khelsi and her family today.

You know, I feel like we just-- we just click, you know?

This is a big decision, \h\h\h\h\h\h\hyou know?

\h\hI don’t wanna send the wrong person home.

- You cold? - Yeah.

Jennifer: After meeting \h\h\hwith her family,

\h\hHunter and Sydney have some time alone

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hto discuss the big decisions ahead.

Sydney: Mom did bring up \h\h\h\h\h\ha good point,

and I don’t feel like \h\h\hI can walk away

without talking to you \h\h\h\h\h\h\habout it.

\hYou know, my job is demanding of me.

- Oh, yeah. \h- And I’m not always \h\h\h\hgonna be home.

I travel a lot.

\hI think absence makes the heart grow fonder.

- Something like that. - Something to that effect, \h\hyou know?

- As long as \h\hit’s not always absent. - It’s not always.

Hunter: There’s some concern \h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hthere for me.

Could we work it out? \h\hPotentially, yes.

So I’m not gonna let that be \h\h\hthe deal breaker for me

\hon what could be a beautiful thing.

\h\h\h\h\hDo you want kids? How many kids do you want?

- Is it-- - Um...

\h\h’Cause that is a big deal for me.

I do want a family, you know?

No, I absolutely understand that.

To be completely honest \h\h\h\h\h\h\hwith you,

\h\hI’m not ready today, \h\h\h\hand I’m not sure I’ll be ready next year.

No, no.

\h\hAll right, well, good deal, you know?

I’m 22 years old,

and so it is weighing \h\h\hon my mind now

\h\h\hthat he could potentially want me

to settle down in two years,

and that’s a big decision \h\h\h\h\hfor me to make.

\hIt’s crazy to think that this is, like...

...the last time we’re gonna \h\hsee each other before...

\h\h\hBig decisions are gonna be made.

Yeah, that.

My stomach has been in knots.\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI’ll wake up in the middle of the night

trying to figure out, \hyou know, what’s--

\hI don’t ever wanna be what causes you stress.

You’re irreplaceable \h\h\h\h\hin my book.

\h\hI can’t say enough good things about you.

You got a big chunk \h\h\hof my heart.

My heart’s already kind of been pulled

into two different directions

with Sydney and Meghan,

\h\hand I feel kind of like Stretch Armstrong.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hJennifer: All of the farmers have met

\h\hthe first of their two remaining ladies’ families,

and now they are heading \h\h\h\hto the next city.

\h\h\h\h\h\hBut for Landon, devastating news from home

could sadly bring his time in this process to a close.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\h\hLandon: \hUnfortunately, can’t be in Dallas at the moment.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hMy dad had some health concerns here lately,

and, uh, found out that he...

...uh, didn’t make it through.

Times like these put everything into perspective for you.

My mom was sitting there \hwith my dad at the end.

\h\h\h\hMy family and I have gotta be there for \heach other right now.

Um...

everything on the side \h\hpales in comparison

\h\h\h\h\hto kind of what we’re all going through.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hI don’t know. It’s just a lot right now.

\h\h♪ This will be my final teardrop ♪

\hJennifer: Our hearts are with Landon and his family

at this most difficult \h\h\h\h\h\h\hof times.

Next time...

- Did you miss me? - Maybe just a nickel.

...our remaining farmers head \hto their next city visits.\h\h\h\h\h\h\hDo you think you’re in love with Meghan?

- Whew. Uh... - How are you with a woman?Just give me the rough basics.

\h\hDid you tell I’m her I’m not very good at this \hkind of stuff or what?

And with big decisions ahead,

\h\h\hthere is a lot on everyone’s minds.

\h\h\h\h\h\h\hRyan: Right now I’m somewhat confused still.

When I see you with Khelsi,

\hyou’re treating me different than that.

\h\h\hIs this reality? Can this actually work?

Being back makes me realize \h\h\h\h\h\hI do miss home.

Uh...

Can we be done now?
