Find out NOW in our THG LIVE Recap!
If you don't want to wait, you can always check out The Bachelorette Spoilers, but we think you'll want to stick around for this.
Chris Harrison reminds us that this is a super special finale with a super special After the Rose special! Yay for three hours of Emily Maynard! Minus 8
Curacao. It must suck to be there, right? And to be in love with two guys while there? That's tough. Oooh look, Ricki sighting! Plus 5.
Jef's meeting the family, including the future sister-in-law, but not Ricki. And he brought flowers for her mom. What a sweetheart. Plus 10.
Mom's a little leery because Brad really stole HER heart. She's going to grill Jef about Ricky and how he feels about being a dad. Jef's ready to be a dad and wants to marry Emily. I'm totally Team Jef right now. Plus 20.
Oooh, now big brother's going to grill Jef. Except they end up talking about Rick, her late fiance' and father of her child. Which is a little odd. But big brother's impressed, so score one for Jef with one F. Plus 8.
Jef wants Daddy's blessing before he proposes to Emily if she's the one he chooses. Daddy gives the blessing and says it's obvious they care about each other. Hooray for Jef! Plus 10.
Emily underestimated just how much her family would like Jef and says she hopes they have to meet Arie tomorrow. Then she says she hopes they're open-minded and for half a second I wonder if she wants to choose them both. Which would definitely be a first for The Bachelorette.
Back in the studio audience, Chris Harrison says this is one of the most dramatic finales in Bachelorette history. And now it's Arie's turn to meet the family.
Arie didn't bring flowers for Mom. Minus 3.
Dad says Arie has his work cut out for him and he isn't sure why they're going through with meeting another guy today. Arie tries to make small talk about fishing and then he just keeps on talking. And no one else talks.
This is just not going well. Minus 4.
Arie DID bring flowers! All of the roses Emily gave him this season. Now I'm Team Arie! Plus 6.
Mom gets Arie alone to talk and Arie drops that he's dated a single mom before. Mom's impressed! And now she loves Arie, too. Plus 7.
Big Brother says Arie's a smooth talker and worries that he's not in this for the right reasons. The smile plastered on his face says that he's not buying what Arie's selling. After their talk, Big Brother is confused.
Arie tells Dad that Emily's the love of his life and asks for his blessing. Dad gives it. Plus 10.
Arie and Emily make out for a bit and then she calls him "Honey." Awww. Plus 2.
Emily's sitting down with her family to see what they think of the two guys. None of them can pick one guy over the other.
Emily says she's in love and that she loves both of them in different ways.
She wanted help choosing which of them would be better with Ricki and they didn't have any answers.
Mom encourages her to hold off on an engagement until she's seen how the guy she chooses is with Ricki. Plus 10. Mother knows best.
Now Emily's not sure she's ready to get engaged when this is all over and isn't sure if any of the guys we've seen this season has been the one for her. What have we been DOING all summer? Minus 3.
Chris Harrison asks the studio audience who they think is best for Emily. While they clearly cheer more loudly for Jef, Chris pretends they were split evenly. Minus 2.
Another Ricki sighting! Ricki's favorite place on this jet-setting adventure has been Curacao. Mine too, Ricki. Mine too.
It's Jef and Emily's last date. Jef sees everything in Emily that he's ever wanted to see in the woman he'd spend his life with, but says that there's one big obstacle in the way: Meeting Ricki.
Emily says she's stressed and Jef says he's not stressed at all. Jef brings up the fact that he hasn't met Ricki yet and says that he thinks about her every day, even if he's never met her. Plus 10.
Emily says it's just a big decision. Jef asks how she'd feel if the roles were reversed. She says it would be weird. And then they stop talking and it's awkward. Minus 12.
Emily decides to introduce Jef to Ricki because she "has all the faith in the world" that this time will be different. Plus 4.
Jef and Emily are on the way to meet Ricki and Ricki doesn't know Jef is coming. This is a big deal and all I can think is that Emily's bathing suit cover up is bright, BRIGHT green.
Jef asks Ricki for a high-five and Ricki is adorable. He asks to wear a pair of her pink goggles and plays in the pool with her. It's a really nice moment. Jef seems like a natural with kids. Plus 25.
Jef's ready to move forward with Emily and toasts to meeting Ricki. After he left, Ricki asked if he could come back tomorrow. Plus 3
As a token of their journey, Jef got Emily a present. A book about Curacao. Which is just such a sweet gift. Throughout the book, he drew stick figures of the two of them in places in Curacao. What a sweet gift! Plus 7.
Chris interviews an audience member who says Jef is mature but young at heart and that makes him genuine. And then he interviews a single mom in the audience who says a guy who loves kids is hotter than a good pair of jeans. And another one wants Emily to choose Arie so the rest of America can have Jef.
Emily woke up with peace in her heart but wanted to talk to Chris. She thought she'd care about one of the guys over the others and now she's not sure. And she hasn't even been on her final date with Arie yet. Cart. Horse. Or something. Minus 4.
She just said she doesn't know what she wants out of this. She wants "some kind" of commitment.
Emily tells Chris that Jef's the one. She knows that after introducing him to Ricki and seeing how easily they got along. Chris asks her what she wants to do about Arie. And she starts to cry.
She has to tell Arie he's not the one so that she doesn't lead him on today on their date. Chris' advice is for her to be as honest with Arie as she has been with Chris.
Poor Arie.
Emily's heart is broken. But it's really Arie's heart we should all be worried about. He's gone to make a love potion and thinks he'll be getting engaged tomorrow. I hope he can get a refund. Minus 14.
The creepy music in the background isn't helping with what we all know is coming. All of us except Arie, that is.
He puts the love potion on her arms as soon as she gets to their date and she walks him over to a bench to give him the bad news. Except she's crying too hard to give it.
She tells him she felt like it was going to be the two of them from their first date and he thinks her family didn't like him. She tries to reassure him and then just says she's sorry.
Arie is shocked by her revelation, as he should be, and says he thought they had something. He thought it was going to be the two of them and she did too. But it's not the two of them.
He gets up to leave ans she goes after him. He says he doesn't know what she wants him to say and then thanks her for sparing him the embarrassment of a rose ceremony. She keeps trying to apologize and he just wants to get away from her.
Arie still feels like Emily is the love of his life and he just can't believe this is the end. Poor Arie.
Chris has Ashley and JP from Season 7 in the studio to comment on Emily's predicament. They're in agreement that Emily did the right thing by letting Arie go early. He also talks to DeAnna who gives Emily props for not introducing Emily to Ricki. And then there's another girl from Emily's time on The Bachelor. It's like a parade of reality television demi-stars. Minus 18.
It's a walk down Emily and Jef lane as Emily narrates all the reasons Jef's The One. Seeing their times together does make it clear how Jef's the right choice. Plus 14.
Jef's picking out diamonds! He chooses an Emerald cut. Nice choice, Jef. Nice choice. Plus 10
