Harrison stated, “Overall, there’s a lot to still unpack. Once we find Colton [after he jumped over the fence jump], we had to figure out as a team, with him included, where do we go from here? You’ll see that conversation, and you’ll see all of that unfold. There are still other women involved. Hannah G. and Tayshia are still here … It was a lot, it was very interesting, and we were dealing with what happened the best we could on the fly.”
Ahead of the finale, ABC released the following description of episode 11, which is part 1 of the finale. “After the most shocking meltdown in Bachelor history, Colton needs to discuss his options with Chris.
