Things will start to get awkward in the premiere episode of "The Bachelor" season 20 based on the latest sneak peek.

In an exclusive trailer for the first episode of "The Bachelor" season 20, one of the women who will vie for Ben Higgins's attention will make the first move and give him his first kiss of the season.

Lace Morris, a 25-year-old real estate broker from Denver, Colorado, will be seen taking one step ahead of all the other women by kissing Higgins as soon as he steps out of the limo.

"I'm the only one that kissed him so far and I am not going to let Ben forget about me," Morris says in the trailer (via Entertainment Weekly).

She also asks him for another kiss, but Higgins chooses to decline politely.

"I wanted to make sure we spent our time getting to know each other one on one, and not necessarily kissing or making out the whole the time," the 26-year old software salesman from Warsaw, Indiana says in the video.

Reality Steve tagged Morris as the "night 1 drunk girl." The website also said that she was slurring her words as she spoke and cursed all throughout the episode. She also reportedly demanded for more wine and began to insult the other women in the competition.

The spoiler site also revealed that after Higgins rejected her appeal for another kiss and Mandi K. arrived for her time alone with this season's bachelor, Higgins became emotional and told the other contestants that the dentist from Portland, Oregon took him away from her.

Higgins reportedly went back to the house where all the women were staying at to look for Morris to explain why he chose to decline her offer to give him another kiss.

The premiere episode of "The Bachelor" season 20 is slated to air on Monday, Jan. 4 on ABC.
