This week on "The Bachelor," Ben Higgins and the ladies went to the Bahamas and two contestants were eliminated ahead of the rose ceremony.

Everyone has been complaining about Olivia, and Ben pulled her aside for a little talk and asked her what was going on. Olivia said that she just didn't relate well with the other girls because she likes to read books and think, while the others just want to do their nails and hair.

Meanwhile, Leah showed her true colors when she told Ben that Lauren B. was actually a different person with him from what she was with the other women. However, Ben did not believe her and sent her home, saying that it was best for them to say goodbye.

Emily and Olivia went on the two-on-one date with Ben and Olivia told him that she was in love with him. The news anchor was confident that Emily would be sent home, but Ben told Olivia that he didn't feel the same way about her and he and Emily left Olivia on the island.

On his blog for People, Ben explained why he sent Olivia home, saying that at first, he didn't see what the other ladies were complaining about and all that he knew was what she presented to him in person.

"And that was that of a beautiful, poised woman who may have been controversial by being a little aggressive," he said. Ben also revealed his two big fears coming into the show—one was being in love with a woman who was pretending to be someone she's not, and the second was saying goodbye to someone he could see a future with and regretting it. Next week, Ben and the ladies head to his hometown in Indiana, and according to Reality Steve, Ben will go on a one-on-one date with Lauren B.

According to the website, the two will go to Baker's Youth Center, where he used to work, and meet up with friends, along with some members of the Indiana Pacers. Ben will also go on another date with JoJo and he takes her to Wrigley Field to play baseball. Becca, Amanda, and Caila are selected for the group date, and two ladies will be sent home.

"The Bachelor" airs Mondays at 8 p.m. on ABC.
