The Bachelor finale was last night,
and here's the main man, Chris Harrison.
(cheering and applause)
Look at that, a standing O.
All right. Good to see you, bud.
Have a seat, bud. We got to get to this.
-Thanks for coming. All right. -So...
I watched last night. Oh, what a roller coaster, Chris.
Oh, my God.
-HARRISON: An emotional ending. -First of all, the audience
feels like it's all women.
It's a bit of a, like, a rush week at Delta Gamma.
I don't understand. See, that's all chicks.
-Uh... -Look at that.
-That guy's up to no good, whatever... -Yeah.
Oh, he made it in. He squeaked through.
-HARRISON: Yeah. -SPADE: Somebody's dad.
Um, just a quick recap for everyone.
I think we all saw it.
-Yes. Yes. Love it. -We all see it? Okay.
-I was there. -So, uh,
it was down to Hannah Ann and the virgin Madison, right?
-HARRISON: Yes. -And then he took them to Australia.
-Yes. -By the way, I was waiting for Hannah B.
to pop out of a kangaroo pouch.
"Hey, y'all. Guess who's here to ruin it."
Uh, and he winds up picking Hannah Ann.
And then he gives her a ring,
but then he switches to Madison, uh, a while later.
-HARRISON: Yeah. -Didn't switch. He...
He stopped it with Hannah Ann.
And then in the show, that must have been weird,
because did you have an ending ready?
Well, here's the thing. We weren't really worried about...
'Cause any ending you have is-is what it is.
-SPADE: Yeah. -And if he doesn't end up with somebody,
that's fine. It-it happens.
Um, the show's never been predicated
on the fact that it works every time.
-SPADE: Right. -That's not real life, so that's fine.
-Or at all. -But with... Yeah.
-Or at all. -Eh.
-Uh, shh! Nobody knows. -SPADE: Yeah. Yeah.
People are still watching.
Uh, but no, when he broke up with Hannah Ann,
then I-I went to Alabama, and I talked to Madison,
and they were still both very much into each other.
And we thought, let's give it a shot.
She goes, "Let me throw my eyelashes in a suitcase,
-and I'm right there." -Right.
-Just... -(laughs)
"Ah!"
But the star of the night was Barb, Peter's mom.
-You even had a Barb cam on her the whole time. -Yes.
-ALONZO: Yo. -Look at her. Those chains.
Um, Peter's mom really had a lot to say.
And-and I-- And-and she did not like who he picked.
-So here she is. -Um... -Chris, all his friends,
um, all his friends, all his family,
everyone that knows him knows that it's-it's not--
you know, it-it's not gonna work.
So we've been trying to help him.
-Would we want it to work? Yes. -(gasping, cheering)
Chris, he's gonna have to fail to succeed.
That's it.
(gasping)
I would have been like Napoleon Dynamite.
"Mom, get out of here."
-I mean, she's... -I-I really thought
we were a chair throw away from Springer.
It did look a little--
It was inching in a Springer area.
-Yo, Barb was crazy. -Yeah.
She looked like an emoji, you know what I mean?
Like, she looks like her middle name
is Let Me Talk To A Manager.
Like, you know what I mean? Like, you know what I mean?
And she got out, like, "Let me talk to the manager, okay?"
She goes, "Y-You know, Peter's a loser."
She's telling Madison.
"He puts Mentos in Coke!"
Uh, Madison's a troublemaker, according to Barb.
But it was such daggers. I couldn't believe it.
And, uh, I feel spin-off with her.
It was, uh-- I was-- I was shocked,
only I just didn't see that coming.
And I-I could tell, as soon as I got there onstage that night,
I could see Barb. I knew she wasn't in a great mood.
But I-I didn't know what she was mad at,
and I didn't think that was what was gonna happen.
I didn't think she was just gonna roll right over Peter
like that. And even when we tried to fix it,
I thought, "Okay, we're gonna come back from this,
"and she's gonna say, 'You know what, at the end of the day,
that's my boy.'"
-It just never got there. It rea... -No.
-It got worse and worse. -It-it sort of got deeper.
Yeah, it got deeper.
'Cause it was like, if you're the girl,
that's like the red flag store went out of business.
-(laughter) -Like, when you've got
so many things coming at you.
And then, the dad's got that leather jacket
like he's Smokey on the press tour.
Um, he looks like Burt Reynolds, yeah.
But I think Barb--
she's not gonna be in Bachelor in Paradise.
-That's a rumor. -She had no idea.
I hadn't even heard that one.
(laughter)
-I love it. -I-I... I...
I heard she proposed to Hannah Ann right after the show.
(laughter)
Now, there was, uh... Oh.
So no one panicked when-when he had the problem with...
Hannah Ann was a champ last night, by the way.
-She was awesome. -She was smooth.
-She's already in paradise. -Yeah, she's got it made.
-Yeah. -I mean, everyone was pulling for her.
She had one point three billion people slide in
-to her DMs last night. -Oh, yeah, she...
And she's already in paradise.
-She was a hit, and, uh... -Yeah. -(laughter)
-Hey, girl. -Yeah. -(applause and cheering)
Hey, girl. Don't
-even worry about it, girl. -SPADE: Don't you worry, girl.
-Did, uh... -You are so strong. Women power.
I was too busy talking to Victoria.
-I like the crazy. -(laughter)
Yeah. Victoria F.
Well, did they, uh...
Oh, yeah, there was a rumor that...
Did Peter, uh, hang out or something,
fool around with one of the producers or something?
-Was that something that...? -Yeah, we can
-categorically say that's a big "no." -Oh, it was a "no"?
-No, that didn't happen. Yeah, and-and... -Okay, good.
Okay, good, 'cause I thought she'd pop out, too.
J-Julie... Julie was there.
Julie was there working anyway,
and-and trying to deal with Barb, but no, she...
Julie is the producer. Nothing there.
And-and Kelley, who we had there last night,
this little red herring,
little Easter egg we threw out there for Bachelor Nation.
-Just messing with everybody. -SPADE: Oh, I like that, yeah.
Ah, it sounds like something happened with Julie.
(laughter, applause and cheering)
-SPADE: You know what's... -Like, Chris, let's be honest,
what are you gonna say? "Oh, well, behind the set, they..."
-Ah, no. Come on. -SPADE: Well, they... You know it's bad
when you're in the audience, and they go, "Hey, let's take you
to hair and makeup." They're like,
-"Oh, no. I'm on the show now?" -Yeah.
-"Yeah, we got to crimp your hair." -Exactly.
-Uh, well... -So he was... he was intimate...
-he admitted to being intimate... -With Julie.
-He admitted to being intimate? -SPADE: No, he...
Do we know... do we know who he was intimate with?
-Julie! -(laughter)
I think he said Hannah Ann on the show, right?
Everyone, but not Madison.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah. Madison's... -ROCK: I thought Sydney.
I thought him and Sydney hooked up.
No, they didn't get... they didn't get in the fantasy suite.
Yeah, but... but no, so what?
-Oh, yeah. -SPADE: Yeah. There was downtime.
-They-they could have had sex in Cleveland. -(laughter)
Yeah, what is it with this year
sending people to horrible places
and acting like they're nice?
Right? "You're in beautiful Cleveland!"
The girls are all dancing around.
Then you took them to fuckin' Alice Springs,
-the biggest shithole in Australia. -(laughter)
-(applause) -You... you...
-(whooping) -you...
you couldn't even get a nice outside shot of the hotel.
It didn't exist. They used to show this rusty veranda,
like, "Oh, look, they're in Alice Springs."
-They're swatting away flies. -Yeah, yeah!
The whole time, they're like...
To your point, there...
there are some beautiful parts to the Outback.
I-I love... loved Australia.
But it was really funny, when we were shooting
that-that date, and right as Madison was leaving,
and if you notice, the tallest tree is, like, three feet tall.
-Right. -And it has no leaves. There is no shade anywhere.
And it's 140. And so we just had them, like,
-tucked by this twig, and there was no shade... -I saw that,
because that shanty, I'm like,
"This is their big Four Seasons?"
Looks like a garage. And he doesn't even talk to her inside.
He's like, "Let me take you out where it's 110."
-(laughter) -All right, well, that's enough.
We don't have more time. Chris is a stud.
-Thanks for coming by, dude. -(cheering, applause)
