Meet the parents (and the big bad brothers)! Bachelor Ben Higgins visited the hometowns of his four finalists, JoJo Fletcher, Amanda Stanton, Lauren Bushnell and Caila Quinn, on the Monday, February 22, episode, and the emotional roller coaster was an even more exhilarating ride on Twitter.
Fans of the show reacted with hilarious tweets from the dramatic two-hour episode, including GIFs of Fletcher's mom chugging rosé (straight from the bottle!) and her brothers interrogating Higgins. As recalled, the Bachelor's encounter with Fletcher's protective big bros was one of the more awkward moments from the episode. Check out Us Weekly's roundup of reactions below!
AMANDA STANTON
I'm not 100% comfortable with Ben's capri pants in the opener but I like the fact that HE is. #TheBachelor pic.twitter.com/p51bj1WndQ

And while we're on fashion, I'm completely mystified by Amanda's top with a matching, detached sleeve. #TheBachelor pic.twitter.com/L64FQHJolw
