‘The Bachelor’ spoilers: Kimberly Sherbach’s fate; Chris Soules’ ‘tractor date’

What happens to Kimberly Sherbach on “The Bachelor” tonight? This was obviously the big cliffhanger that was set up by ABC at the end of this past new episode, which of course led to questions regarding just what the show exactly had planned for her. Is there any real way that Chris Soules is going to suddenly change his mind at the last minute?

Well, we have an answer for you below, with of course an obvious “spoiler warning” leading up to that: For some reason, the network already decided to confirm it for us in a way without the episode even airing. That’s a little bit of an unusual strategy, but at the same time, we really don’t think that they care all that much one way or the other.

This photo is from the group date taking place in this episode, and that is Kimberly aboard one of the tractors that is front and center for a big race through the street. Let us be perfectly clear here: This has to be one of the dumbest things we’ve ever seen the show do for a group date early in the season. There is virtually zero reason for the women to be in the bikinis, and it seems almost gratuitous for them to be shown off like this when it would make more sense for them to be wearing farmer’s outfits. Basically, we’re wondering when the show is going to make the second or third challenge a season into a wet t-shirt contestants, since we are probably not that far away from that.

Now that we’ve said that, we hope that for all of the women in the challenge, hopefully the show at least makes it fun and gives them some romantic moments with Chris at the end.
