Some ‘Star Wars’ stories have already become reality 
On the Monday night episode of ABC’s “The Bachelor,” Nick Viall went to the homes and visited the families of all four girls remaining in the show: Corinne, Rachel, Raven, and frontrunner Vanessa.
But of all the four girls, some fans couldn’t wait to see whether Corinne and her home life, which includes a nanny tending to her needs, were really true or just talk. And they got more what they bargained for. TIME recounts that Corinne first took an uncomfortable Nick to her favorite place on earth, which was reportedly the most exclusive mall in Miami, with a USD3,000 shopping spree. Corinne then took Nick to dinner at her home, where fans met the nanny Raquel, and Corinne’s father. What happened next was weird for Nick.
“Then Corinne’s dad tells Nick that Corinne has agreed to be the breadwinner if this whole being “The Bachelor” thing doesn’t work out financially. Basically, he tells Nick to get a dang job. Nick looks uncomfortable and goes into a minor fugue state to think about his other three girlfriends,” Melissa Locker for the online magazine wrote.
There were more of these uncomfortable moments with parents and friends, like Rachel’s when she took him to a black congregation church, according to the Baltimore Sun. But the Monday episode had some lovey-dovey moments for TV too. Nick’s homecoming with Raven resulted in a mud swamp chase and kiss. Vanessa and Nick had some emotional moments with the former’s students, mother, and sister.
But the icing of the cake was when former “The Bachelorette” Andi Dorfman, who chose Josh Murray over Nick in Season 10, visited a very shocked Nick, PEOPLE.com reported. Andi’s visit seems to have shaken Nick to the core, who said, “I have a lot to think about and I’m running out of time. I fell in love twice here, and I’ve had my heart broken twice. My biggest fear is that that will happen again. If I was the first Bachelor to get rejected, I’ll be devastated.”
