The Bachelorette: When True Love Meets Prime-Time Drama

Buckle up, folks! We're almost at the finish line of "The Bachelorette" Season 21, and Jenn Tran is down to her last three victims choices.

In the penultimate episode, our dear Jenn and her final three meatheads suitors arrive in Hawaii for a week of dates that will apparently cover every imaginable terrain. According to ABC, Jenn will take "one man on a breathtaking helicopter tour," another "on a thrilling jeep adventure," and the third on "an adventurous boat ride and manta ray swim." Because nothing says true love like potential motion sickness and near-death experiences.

But wait, there's more! Amidst the excitement and pressure of looming overnight dates, some men are grappling with "fears of commitment and rejection." Shocker! Who would have thought that a reality TV show might not be the best incubator for genuine, lasting relationships?
