I'm also curious to see how Ben refers to Lauren post show. LoLo? Lo? I'm guessing still Lauren- at least publicly.

The Bachelor: 2009 (2/29)

 AS BEN HIGGINS’ SEARCH FOR HIS SOUL MATE DRAWS TO A CLOSE, HE SWEEPS THE FINAL THREE WOMEN AWAY FOR FANTASY OVERNIGHT DATES IN EXOTIC JAMAICA,  ON ABC’S “THE BACHELOR”

Ben Makes Bachelor History by Telling Two Women He Loves Them, Sparking Uncertainty and Indecision as He Nears the End of His Journey to Find a Wife

“Episode 2009” – Romantic adventures await Ben and the final three bachelorettes – Caila, Jo Jo and Lauren B. – as they travel to beautiful Jamaica. From a rafting trip down a jungle river to a romantic dinner on a beach, from rescuing a nest of endangered baby sea turtles to a dip at a magical waterfall deep in the jungle, the dates are filled with passion and excitement, as Ben continues to explore what his future might be like with each of these potential mates. At the end of the evening, Ben will present each bachelorette with an invitation to spend an intimate night together in the “fantasy suite,” with the hope that she will accept. But will she? More torn than ever, Ben acknowledges that he is in love with two incredible women, and he has professed his love to both. How will that affect his final decision? Find out on “The Bachelor,” airing MONDAY, FEBRUARY 29 (8:00-10:01 p.m. EST) on the ABC Television Network.

Ben shares an adventurous rafting trip down a jungle river with Caila, who is still struggling with the fact that there are other women vying for the Bachelor’s heart. Caila’s inability to share her insecurity is holding her back from expressing her true feelings to Ben. That night over a romantic dinner on the beach, Caila decides it’s now or never. Finally, with Ben’s patient persuasion, this beautiful bachelorette is able to share all the pent-up emotions she has had. Ben is overwhelmed, but will she have opened up in enough time?

Lauren B. joins Ben on a preservation mission of baby turtles. Afterwards, the couple sits on the beach, discussing their potential future together and the emotional hometown date they shared last week. Lauren finally has her own breakthrough, finally telling Ben she loves him. But what Ben replies will shock Bachelor Nation and make Bachelor history.

Ben goes into his final date of the week more confused than ever. Jo Jo is nervous after her contentious hometown date but is hoping it won’t derail her relationship with Ben. They fly off in a helicopter, arriving at a storybook setting: a magnificent waterfall deep in the jungle. The two take a dip before they get down to more serious matters: expressing their deep feelings for one another.

The next day, Caila, hoping for more time with Ben, surprises him in his bachelor pad. Will she find the romance she was seeking to validate their connection?

One woman is stunned and crushed as she is sent home without a rose. For the first time in Bachelor history, the Bachelor has told two women he loves them. But if Ben is that uncertain, will it be possible for him to choose between the two wonderful women he has fallen madly in love with? It will all come down to the final day, hours and minutes of Ben’s journey.

The three remaining women are:

Caila, 24, software sales representative, Hudson, OH

Joelle “Jo Jo,” 24, real estate developer, Dallas, TX

Lauren B., 25, flight attendant, Marina Del Rey, CA
