Time is ticking fast for Ben Higgins to choose his perfect match. This Monday on “The Bachelor,” the 27-year-old software salesman packs his bags and flies to the exotic island of Jamaica with the remaining contestants. Spoilers indicate that things will be more intimate and dramatic than ever, especially with Ben’s confusing confession of love.

The final three – Caila Quinn, JoJo Fletcher and Lauren Bushnell – battle it out once more to make it to the finale. Unfortunately, one bachelorette falls short of convincing Ben that she’s the right woman for him.

TV Guide reports that on the ninth episode of Season 20, Ben and the remaining three contestants travel all the way to Jamaica for their overnight dates. One lucky lady gets to experience a romantic river raft ride with Ben, while another explores a waterfall with him. Meanwhile, one bachelorette bonds with Ben when they rescues baby turtles.

ABC posted a sneak peek for Monday’s episode on its official YouTube page, showing the four’s exotic getaway (watch below). All three women are excited to spend a night with Ben, and each has something to say about what’s ahead.

Lauren admits that the uncertainty of not knowing where he is in the other relationships gets stronger and stronger. Meanwhile, JoJo says that she couldn’t imagine him feeling strongly towards someone else. Caila, on the other hand, is not shy about her thoughts. “He might be waking up with these other women this week, but I want to be the woman he’ll wake up next to for the rest of his life,” she says.

A romantic fantasy-suite invites await Caila, JoJo and Lauren, and while “The Bachelor” fans anticipate these one-on-one rendezvous, Ben commits a major blunder. The show’s rules say that the bachelor cannot drop the L-word before the finale. However, as shown in the preview video, Ben says “I love you,” not only to one girl but two.

Fans wonder whether this will figure somewhere on next week’s “Women Tell All” special. The episode airs before the finale on Mar. 14, when Ben finally sheds off his bachelor title and proposes to the woman of his dreams.
