This is the segment that everyone searches for. Susie Evans’ date started beautifully—ice caves, northern lights, and a conversation about her late father. Susie told Clayton she was terrified of getting hurt but that she was "almost there" in terms of love.
Clayton froze. The cameras zoomed in. For the first time in Bachelor history, a lead admitted on camera that he had been intimate with both of the other two women. He didn't lie. He didn't deflect. He told Susie the truth: Yes, he had slept with Gabby and Rachel and had told them both he loved them.
Susie stood up, grabbed her coat, and walked out of the Icelandic restaurant. Clayton followed her, yelling, "Susie, wait!" But she was done. She got into the SUV and told the producer, "Take me to the airport. I'm leaving."
Gabby, who had been open about her insecurities regarding her relationship with her mother, finally let her guard down. She told Clayton, "I'm all in." The conversation turned serious when Clayton asked Gabby how she would feel if he had told the other women he loved them. Gabby, pragmatically, said she understood the process but expected honesty.
