We're nearing the finish line of this season of The Bachelor, and Arie Luyendyk Jr. is down to his three final ladies: Becca, Kendall, and Lauren.

Tonight's episode is gearing up to be unusually dramatic for a typical 'overnights' episode. Why? Well, a man we've never met before will turn up, and demand his lady back. The problem is that "his lady" is also one of Arie's final three.
