This week on "The Bachelorette," Kaitlyn spent time with Ben to escape the tension between Nick and Shawn. She chose her final two and later on, met both of their families at a hotel in Utah. 

The episode picked up where it left off the previous week, with Nick and Shawn at each other's throats over Kaitlyn. Tired of all the bickering, Kaitlyn decided to spend time with Ben, and their overnight date began with some horseback riding through the Irish countryside and the two even stopped to feed some donkeys. 

During their evening inside an Irish castle, Ben decided to tell Kaitlyn that he turned 26 while filming. He said that he didn't say anything since they never talked about age and he didn't want her to think that it's an issue with him. When she told him that she's turning 30 soon, Ben said that she's the most attractive older woman he'd ever seen. 

The next day, Kaitlyn went on a date with Shawn on a golf course, and she persuaded him to don a bright pink polo for the date. At dinner, Kaitlyn asked Shawn why he confronted Nick. Shawn confirmed that he did talk to Nick. 

"I kind of wanted to do it for myself because I'm not a person who talks about people behind their back," he explained.

Kaitlyn then told him that Nick told her about Shawn bragging about sleeping with another girl, and Shawn said that Nick is acting like a 16-year old girl. 

The following morning, Shawn found Nick, obviously upset about what Kaitlyn told him. 

"If I hear my name come out of your mouth one more time to Kaitlyn, it's not going to be pretty," he told Nick.

At the Rose Ceremony, Nick got the first rose, and Shawn got the second one. Ben was sent home. 

Instead of hometown dates, Nick's and Shawn's families met up with Kaitlyn and the men at a hotel in Utah. Kaitlyn spent some time with Nick's family first, and although his mother and sisters were hesitant about him doing this for the second time, they took a liking to Kaitlyn quickly. Later, Kaitlyn said that she felt like part of the family, and Nick told her that they should make babies someday. 

Shawn's mom was unable to make it to Utah, but the rest of his family made up for her absence. Kaitlyn was able to get Shawn's sisters' approval, and when she asked them if they thought Shawn was ready for marriage, they said yes. His dad was more skeptical as he asked his son if being on the show changed him and how much time did he actually spend with Kaitlyn. Eventually, Shawn's dad told him to follow his heart. Later, Shawn told Kaitlyn that he's in love with her and has been in love with her for a while. 

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