THE BACHELORETTE:

PUNCHLINES AND PUNCHING
Monday at 9/8c on ABC


AN EXCITED KAITLYN — NOW THE ONE AND ONLY BACHELORETTE – GETS READY TO FIND HER SOUL MATE, AS THE REMAINING MEN PRACTICE PUNCHING AND PUNCH LINES, ON “THE BACHELORETTE,” MAY 25

World Boxing Champion Laila Ali Attempts to Make the Men Battle-Tough Comic Extraordinaire Amy Schumer Teaches the Bachelors the Fine Art of Standup Clint is the Lucky Man Who Gets the First One-on-One Date

Kaitlyn is anxious to begin her journey to find the love of her life and the men are eager to start dating the vivacious Bachelorette. However, will the men who had a stronger connection to Britt have a target on their back? What happened to Brady, who was so smitten with Britt that he left the show in a sweeping romantic gesture? The men are taught to throw a punch by one of the best – Laila Ali – in preparation for squaring off against one another. Superstar comic Amy Schumer attempts to sharpen the rapier wit of a group of the bachelors, but will they be able to make our wise-cracking Bachelorette laugh? The debonair Clint captures the first one-on-one date — an underwater photo shoot which ends in a hot romantic embrace. All the guys are “playing nice,” until one devious bachelor refuses to play by the rules, on “The Bachelorette,” MONDAY, MAY 25 (9:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

Editors’ note: “The Bachelorette” will return to its regular time slot on Monday, June 1 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET).

Eight excited bachelors arrive at a boxing gym to meet Kaitlyn. Little do they know what will hit them – literally! Undefeated World Boxing Champion Laila Ali is waiting to train them, putting the men through a rigorous boxing workout. Afterwards, Laila lands a surprise punch when she announces that the guys will battle one another in a sudden death boxing competition. The winner will get more alone time with Kaitlyn. Ben Z., who is built like a prize fighter, is so intimidating; the other bachelors have second thoughts. Much to Kaitlyn’s surprise, the guys don’t pull any punches and are truly invested in slugging it out to win her heart. However, one decisive match between Ben Z. and a scrappy underdog goes awry in a major way.

Kaitlyn gets to know the men better at the after party when Ben Z. shares the details of his heartbreaking childhood. A mysterious note arrives beckoning the Bachelorette to go outside. She receives a real shocker, continues to make romantic connections. Who will win the group date rose?

Clint and Kaitlyn jump into a vintage Mercedes Benz to drive to a luxurious mansion with a pool. The attractive couple will have an unusual, sensual date, as they shoot underwater photos dressed in couture fashion. They take the plunge, but will Clint and Kaitlyn’s underwater fantasy end in a rose being offered?

The Bachelorette loves a good joke, so she takes seven of the men on a group date to test their sense of humor. The bachelors are thrilled when they discover that superstar comic Amy Schumer will tutor them on how to deliver a punch line, as she prepares them for their standup debut at the famous Improv Comedy Club in Los Angeles. One by one the seven bachelors attempt to make Kaitlyn and the audience laugh. But who will get the last laugh and the rose?

The remaining men come to a consensus at the cocktail party that those who didn’t have a date this week with Kaitlyn should get to talk to her first. But one man decides to go rogue and not honor the gentleman’s agreement, causing dissention among the bachelors. Another frustrated guy confronts the Bachelorette about not getting the attention he feels he deserves, which escalates to an intense showdown when he accuses her of keeping him for the wrong reasons. The situation reaches an explosive and unexpected turn that brings people running.

it's nt about believing or not. To me, Josh is just sh*t stirring. On one hand he is annoyed and feels manipulated he was "made" to strip... and in the next sentence he was just there to promote is stripping. So... didnt TPTB just do him a favour? As for K reacting to it, he should just take it as a compliment ;)
