This article contains spoilers for “The Bachelor” Season 28.

Needless to say, there’s a lot of Season 28 dirt ahead, so proceed accordingly.

This particular season boasts an especially big roster to whittle down.

The competition between the sibs escalates when Allison kisses Graziadei first.

According to Reality Steve, neither one ends up winning over Graziadei, which may be for the best.

Which woman does Joey Graziadei kiss first?

She also ends up snagging the first kiss of the season.

Unsurprisingly, this declaration doesn’t go over well with the other contestants.

Edwards admits multiple times throughout the episode that she isn’t around to make friends.

What does Lea Cayanan’s mystery card say?

She was told not to open said envelope until she began shooting the new season.

Talk about a cliffhanger.

Throughout the premiere episode, Cayanan grappled with whether or not she should actually use it this season.

(Don’t worry, the answer’s just around the corner.)

Who receives the first impression rose?

But sometimes, it’s not about the limo gimmicks.

Sometimes, all it takes is a heartfelt conversation.

To prove her point, she physically destroys the card by throwing it in the Bachelor Mansion’s fireplace.

It should come as little surprise, but this gets the other women talking.

Who scores the first one-on-one date?

However, her butterflies quickly subside once they take off into the air.

Joey Graziadei and Daisy Kent

The couple ends the night like all other “Bachelor” dates: with a candlelit dinner.

The night then, of course, ends with a kiss.

Do any women decide to leave the show early?

Week after week,“The Bachelor” bids contestants farewell during the rose ceremony.

However, some of the women this season decide to leave the show early of their own accord.

In Episode 2 of Season 28, Lauren Hollinger becomes the first contestant to exit the Bachelor Mansion voluntarily.

Maria Georgas and Sydney Gordon

The two stick around for another week before heading on a two-on-one date together with the Bachelor.

By the end of the episode, Chrissa Perez, Evalin Clark, and Starr Skyler are eliminated.

Which women make it to the hometown dates?

Kent gets the first hometown; fans spotted her with Graziadei in Minnesota at the end of October 2023.

Then, the Bachelor makes his way to Louisiana to spend time with Anderson.

Another two days after that, Graziadei hops on a plane to Georgas' hometown in Canada.

After the hometowns, Graziadei sends Georgas home at that week’s rose ceremony.

Who does Joey spend time with in the Fantasy Suites?

That’s all well and good, but there’s still an elimination to get through.

Kelsey Anderson, Rachel Nance, and Daisy Kent

After the Fantasy Suites are done, it’s time to pick the top two.

Graziadei reportedly eliminates Nance, sending Anderson and Kent to the final round.

They go through all of this to avoid spoiling the whole season.

That spoiling is, of course, all left to Reality Steve.

Per usual, the people of the internet have their theories.

Alas, we’ll just have to wait and see.
