In the season premiere, 25 eligible men — including a real estate investor, a lawyer, a TV weatherman and an entertainment wrestler — arrive from all over the country to try and win Ali's heart. Each is more handsome than the next, with standout personalities, and nothing can prepare Ali for the stunts the guys will go as they try to win her attention: one outdoorsman literally tries to reel her in, a hunky skier does a death-defying back flip off the limo and one man even gets down on one knee and proposes. Inside the mansion, the men are blown away about how incredibly gorgeous Ali looks in her slinky black dress — and the battle of the bachelors begins, as each tries to make the best first impression on the stunning Bachelorette.

Ali invites one man to take a leap of faith with her on a daredevil date, tightrope walking across two skyscrapers in downtown Los Angeles. Then nine men are treated to a private Barenaked Ladies concert only to find out that they'll be the stars of the band's new music video. One obsessed bachelor sneaks out on the rest of the men to claim some alone time with Ali. And a shy guy goes on an intimate barbeque with the Bachelorette, which ends in the hot tub. Can he handle a situation that the other men would die to be in? Finally, one man's sly secret is revealed right before the tension-filled rose ceremony, but Ali will send some good guys home when she decides they're just not right for her.
