Next Monday, Ben Flajnik heads to San Francisco with the 16 remaining bachelorettes for a bikini-laden ski date, however the game takes a turn for the worst when an unexpected blast from Ben's past crashes their group cocktail party.

"We might as well have rolled a grenade into the cocktail party," says Harrison of the mystery woman who drops in on the date.

"She called me and said, 'This is the situation, I want to come back'…[It was] up to Ben after that, and it was beyond explosive. I didn't think the women would be happy, but I didn't think it would be such a huge deal. It's a category five meltdown."

As for who the mystery lady could be, Chris indulges us with a small hint. "She's from our past as well and is someone who had a relationship with Ben. At least that's what she said."
