[ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: well, that's -- thank you. hi. i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thank you for coming. [ cheers and applause ] thank you for watching. thanks for that burst of enthusiasm. i'll tell you. i had a tough day today. this daylight savings time is also hardest on me it seems like. although i did get some serious farming done today thanks to -- whatever time we save for daylight savings time, for me is offset by the 45 minutes it takes me to figure out how to reset the clock on the microwave. [ laughter ] i'm not a fan of daylight savings -- i don't condone jumping ahead in time in any form, unless it involves a delorean, stolen plutonium and a soundtrack by huey lewis. [ laughter and applause ]

otherwise -- studies show that traffic accidents actually go up on the day after daylight saving time starts. i think mostly from people trying to reset the clock in the car while they're driving. why can't these clocks reset themselves? must we do everything for them? it's time to get rid of daylight savings. i'd like to see us get rid of daylight altogether. we would be -- we'd be on much earlier if we had no daylight, right? but try not to think of it as losing an hour of sleep. think of it as getting an hour closer to "the bachelor" being over for the season. [ laughter and applause ] the season finale -- [ cheers and applause ] oh, don't pretend like we don't love it. of "the bachelor" aired tonight here on abc. and now, begins the long, arduous process of sterilizing the hot tub. [ laughter ] bachelor ben flajnik took his two prospects to the swiss alps to make his final decision. that's where i take my potential brides, too.

i take them up to the alps, up on the mountain, and then decide. like god. like god does. before the proposal, ben asked both women's fathers permission to either marry or embarrass his daughter on national television. both requests were granted. if you follow "the bachelor" year after year, you know the finale tonight was a real surprise. they always say this year's finale's the most shocking one yet. well, this time it was. >> today's the biggest day of my life. you know, i came here to find my soul mate. but how could i possibly choose between these two amazing people? i made up my mind. and it wasn't easy. but deep down i know i'm making right decision. when i first saw you, i knew you were the one for me. you're kind. you're gentle. you have that cute little laugh. we've grown so close over the course of this journey. and that's why i'm absolutely confident in what i'm about to do.

i don't care what they say. i love you. chris, will you be my best bro forever? >> ben, of course. i've been waiting for you to ask. >> so happy. ♪ so happy together ♪ i can't see me loving nobody but you ♪ ♪ for all my life ♪ when you're with me ♪ baby, the skies will be blue ♪ ♪ for all my life >> ah. ben. >> yeah. >> oh, my gosh. ben, i'm married. >> what? >> to a woman. oh. >> you son of a bitch.

>> ben, no. ♪ nobody but you >> jimmy: all right. that's too bad, right? i had a good feeling about them. [ applause ] i told chris he was coming on too strong with the hot air balloons. but he doesn't listen. not listening was a theme for "the bachelor" throughout the season. all the women told ben to watch out for courtney. he would have been better off with courtney love i think than this courtney. they say you never know you're in love till you date 25 women over the course of 10 weeks and finally settle on the 1 who appears to be the most crazy of the group. in the end it came down to the scheming courtney and the seemingly kind and good-hearted lindzi and which did ben select? that's right, courtney. >> courtney -- ♪ >> oh, my god.

>> will you marry me? >> yes, of course i will. i love you so much. oh, my gosh, ben. >> jimmy: who wears long black gloves when they know someone is about to give them an engagement ring? what kind of an insane person would do that? [ laughter ] i don't know what ben was thinking. but that was quite a face he made when he proposed. let's look at his face again. right at that moment. he's -- i don't know. maybe like he's having second thoughts and he's constipated at the same time. you know, when ben was here on the show back in januaryry, jus as "the bachelor" got going, out of 25 women, i correctly predicted every woman in ben's final four. it's a gift i have. when i was a teenager, i was bitten by a radioactive bachelor. and now i have -- [ laughter ] and it turned out, not only did i pick his final four, i picked his final one, too. i'm going to show you to you. ben at this point has shot the

whole season. so, when i'm guessing these, he knows i'm right. watch this. i predict kasey b. will be in your final four. she seems nice. i predict lindzi c. will be in your final four. >> okay. >> jimmy: she's the one who came in on the horse. i predict nicki will be in your final four. and i predict the evil courtney will be in your final four. >> the evil courtney. >> jimmy: and who knows, maybe you even picked courtney. who knows? maybe she tried to stab you in your sleep. [ laughter ] how about that? that's not bad, right? [ applause ] i have mixed emotions about it. i picked all four bachelor finalists. i have never won an ncaa basketball pool here. did you see the look on his face

there? let's show the end of that in slow -- this one in slow-motion, too. who knows? maybe you even pick courtney. who knows? maybe she tries to stab you in your sleep. [ laughter ] >> who knows? >> jimmy: i don't know. not only did he pick courtney, i think she might actually have tried to stab him. [ laughter ] but even when they were together, ben didn't seem that excited about it. i don't know if they're together now or if they -- i don't know. seemed like they're engaged. and unengaged and maybe re-engaged. does this sound like a man who's head over heels in love? >> it's hard for me to believe in fairy tales. so, to actually experience a fairy tale with a few bumps, i'm not saying our relationship but bumps along the way. >> of course. >> personal journey, few bumps. we found a fairy tale. we found a fairy tale. we found each other. that's all that really matters.

>> jimmy: which fairy tale was it? is it the one where the wicked witch eats the little boy? [ laughter ] immediately following tonight's finale was the "after the rose" special where they all get together and update everyone on what's happened since the last episode was taped. lo and behold, it was revealed ben and courtney had broken up. which that was -- even kim kardashian was, like, give it time. [ laughter ] but people -- the audience really, they hate courtney. she got booed when she came out. you can see here the audience -- well, watch the audience here. >> all of america is still reeling after witnessing ben reject lindzi on that final day in switzerland and propose to the woman that all of america loves to hate, courtney. we've heard ben's side of the story about what happened. but what does courtney have to say about it? >> marriage means something to me. like, he asked my dad for my hand in marriage. got down on one knee and proposed to me. like that's -- i only wanted to do that once. you know?

i thought, you know what, just put your all into it. like love him as much as you can. and if he works through it -- you know, then that's great, at least if we break up, i'll know that i put everything into it. >> right now, would you even consider yourself a couple? >> yes. we're together. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: actually, i feel bad for lindzi. she seemed genuinely surprised that ben didn't pick her. she didn't lose her composure. ultimately, she did get the last word. >> sucks having the man you love not love you back. like, i really thought this was someone who i could settle down with and marry and start a life with. it does hurt. ♪ [ laughter ] >> jimmy: now, that's -- that seems like a little much to me. lindzi is here with us tonight. she told me --

[ cheers and applause ] she said, and this is -- big news. she said, she's not leaving till she's engaged to a member of our studio audience. [ cheers and applause ] some big news this weekend from the original bachelor, larry king. larry king announced he'll be hosting a new daily talk show online. the show will stream daily on ora.tv which is a new network on the internet that larry king just co-founded. it's kind of funny to imagine larry king online. really, the only place larry should be online is for the early bird special at golden corral. the format of the show will be a little bit different from his tv show. the plan is to make it an hour of larry staring into a webcam wondering if it's turned on and if anyone can hear him. this is interesting. and stupid. mostly stupid. a new survey shows that 52% of republican voters in mississippi and 45% in alabama think president obama is a muslim.

to be fair, it is same people also believe it's okay to wear pajama jeans to walmart. so -- only 12% of those surveyed in those states said they believed obama is a christian. 36% said they weren't sure what religion he is. see, this is what happens when your state has fewer schools than waffle houses. meanwhile, this is pretty funny. this happened during a press conference in the white house. in the spring, chicago, which is president obama's hometown, is hosting a nato summit. so, a reporter asked the president if he thought the city could effectively provide security for such a major event. that's when obama's cool quotient went down by exactly 38 points. >> i always have confidence in chicago being able to handle security issues. you know, whether it taste of chicago or lapooloza. >> jimmy: lapooloza. that's where he saw the red hit

chimmy chongas or whatever they're called nowadays. mitt romney celebrated his 65th birthday today. they had to be very careful lighting all those candles around so much hair product. but there were no incidents. on friday, romney tweeted a link to a playlist, which a list of his favorite songs on the music website spotify. it included songs from toby keith, the beach boys, carrie underwood, two songs from the killers and the song "born free" by kid rock. can you imagine any scenario in which mitt romney puts ear buds in and fires up the kid rock? [ laughter ] i can't even imagine him putting ear buds in to be honest with you. mitt romney doesn't listen to kid rock. in fact, i think we all know what mitt romney's favorite song is. >> who let the dogs out, who, who. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i never get tired of that. hey, speaking of dogs, something called the crufts dog show went on in england yesterday.

this is one of those dog shows. there's a champion agility dog named no worries sweeps dream. i guess they got tired of dogs named molly or something. here is -- this is no worries sweeps dream. no worries sweeps dream, get in here. on the agility course. and i know we're still early in 2012. but this could turn out to be the sports highlight of the year. >> over the edge. 17. handling well ahead of the dog. well ahead of the dog. sometimes that works. sometimes it doesn't. let the dog go behind you, you could lose control. whoops. oh, no. oh, it was a good run, too. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i said sit. am i the only one who thinks he should get points for that? [ cheers and applause ] apparently. hey, we got a good show for you tonight. from "the bachelor" runner-up lindzi cox is here with us.

i'm always here. >> jimmy: uh-huh. i'll have you know that -- [ cheers and applause ] she comes on one time and you're grinning like a possum cozying up in my dressing room. >> jimmy: you know, she's oprah. i mean, no offense. but you are not oprah. i know you wanna be oprah. but you're not oprah. >> well, you ain't stedman. and let me tell you something -- [ laughter ] >> jimmy: give me time. give me time. i'm working my magic. >> you're in the honeymoon phase. right now, it's all you're funny, giggle, giggle. finishing each other's sentences. all that [ bleep ]. okay. but what are you gonna do when the honeymoon's over? and she says, okay, hey, big-time. let's partner up and, i don't know, let's buy a country together. >> jimmy: i'll do whatever she says. i'll be happy to buy a country. >> you can't carry the freight. this is a high roller. this is a high roller. you're out of your depth. >> jimmy: i never imagined you'd

be so jealous. i'm wondering which one of us you're jealous of. jealous of my relationship with oprah or hers with me. >> i actually had questions about that till i saw her picture in my dressing room. she's been here one time. one time. >> jimmy: there is a picture of you out there. i hate to give it up. but there is a picture of you out there. you're just not looking in the bathroom. >> is it around by the boiler? yeah, okay. is it inside the stall where you can -- >> jimmy: it's not technically inside the building. but there is a picture of you. >> i did think it was very funny stuff though. >> jimmy: thank you. i appreciate that. >> great job. >> jimmy: i have to say -- [ laughter ] you -- let's talk "the bachelor." i want to know what you think as a doctor, as a person who deals with disturbed people on television. all the time. i wish you were on "the bachelor" every week to speak to these people. >> yeah, isn't it interesting that there's a tv show -- and best thing about "the bachelor" is when you finish doing the show, you're still a bachelor. [ laughter ] nobody ever gets married, right?

>> jimmy: yep, pretty much no one ever gets married. i think the first couple, trista and ryan, got married. >> right. >> jimmy: that's it, i think. >> after that people said no. can you imagine if you actually did this and like ten years later somebody says, hey, where did you meet your wife? i won her on a game show. how do you explain that? how do you explain that to your kids? was there a big story here? yeah. actually, i went on a show. i hammered 25 women for 6 weeks. [ applause ] and then i picked this one and she said okay. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: wow. hammered. i think we just got an interesting insight into your personal sexual preferences. [ laughter ] he hammers, guillermo. >> hammers, yeah. [ cheers and applause ] >> i want to tell you, if they want to make that true reality though -- because i had three sisters. >> jimmy: okay. >> all these women that get broken up with, get sent off. if you want this reality, when they get in the back of that

limo, there should be a quart of haagen-dazs and some sweats and a clip for their hair. that's what my sisters did when they got dumped. it was ice cream and sweats. >> jimmy: your sisters aren't bald? >> no. >> jimmy: i imagine the whole family bald. >> i would think you would, yes. with mustaches. >> jimmy: of course, the mustaches go without saying. [ laughter ] now, so, you do not watch "the bachelor." >> actually, my son and daughter-in-law have been addicted to it from day one. they watch it all the time. >> jimmy: oh, they do? >> i've seen it some. it's just -- i don't know. it's okay. i mean, but it -- i don't get it. >> jimmy: yeah, right. >> i don't get it. i keep waiting for one of those girls to say, rose, where's the other 11? these come in a dozen. you know they're thinking, okay. i'm facing a crowd here. how is this working? >> jimmy: it's a weird thing.

there's something that clicks in the men and the women. it just becomes a competition. it's like there's only one man or woman left on earth. and they want them. >> but, see, he doesn't get to see all the stuff we see, right, 'cause it's all done at one time. >> jimmy: correct. >> he didn't get to see all this stuff about courtney. >> jimmy: he saw it afterwards. >> can you imagine now after he's made his pick and then he sees that. he goes, oh [ bleep ] -- >> jimmy: that may have been what happened. we really don't know. >> i mean, she scares me. i'm glad she didn't want her own tv show or you'd be watching dr. courtney every day. >> jimmy: it sounds like dr. phil might be watching a little more of "the bachelor" than he's letting on because -- [ laughter ] now, you have -- there's a guy -- i saw a guy, he's like a 700-pound man. >> right. >> jimmy: who made a video on youtube. and he asked you to help him lose weight. >> he did. >> jimmy: and you contacted him. >> well, this thing went viral. i don't know if ya'll have seen it.

but i mean, the guy is, like, 750 pounds, and literally immobile. can maybe go ten steps or something like that. and i give him credit. he asked for help. and so, i actually spent a big part of today with him because we did contact him. and i can tell you, just even bringing him here, we had to have a physician check him out to be sure he could travel. and we had four emts with him every step of the way to bring him down. had to roll him in. and talk -- >> jimmy: roll him in? >> this is a nice young man. truly is a very nice young man. you think, oh, you know, he's lazy. he's let this happen to him. let me tell you, there's a lot more to this than meets the eye. this is a very nice young man. we're going to really get behind him and see if we can give him some help. >> jimmy: when you say roll him in, you mean like in willy wonka roll him in? or do you mean on something? >> on a gurney. >> jimmy: okay, on a gurney. >> he couldn't walk up the stairs. >> jimmy: how will you help? will he live with you at your house? and you will make him small lunches? >> they didn't tell you?

>> jimmy: no, they didn't. he's with me? >> he's staying at your place. >> jimmy: he'll wind up 850 pounds if he stays at my place. so, what are you going to do with him? >> well, right now, we're going to evaluate him medically. because you get -- the reason we had a physician check him out before we even moved him is this is a guy -- when you're that much overweight, if something happens, and they had to do surgery or -- there's not much you can do. you would just have to watch the guy just suffer. they couldn't get a blood pressure on the man. because there's so much tissue that you cannot hear to get a blood pressure. so, i mean, it's just a -- it's a challenge. so, you got to go through the medical issues. then, you've got to start changing his world, his environment, and everything about it. but i'm very optimistic about this young man because i talked to him, looked him in the eye. he wants his life back. >> jimmy: yeah, well, it's great you're helping him. by the way, what a story. you get him down 175 pounds and maybe he can be the next bachelor. >> could be. >> jimmy: that's the goal, right there. >> people really watch "the bachelor" to see who they pick? or do they watch to see who's going to be the next bachelorette?

>> jimmy: that's a good question. maybe you should -- actually, we're going to take a quick break. we'll come back with dr. phil. lindzi will be here. more than welcome to stick around and ask her if you like. >> more pictures of oprah? >> jimmy: papered the walls with them. dr. phil. you can see him weekdays. we'll be right back.

>> jimmy: there's dr. phil. >> see, this has got to be a setup. okay. >> jimmy: here's dr. phil. i notice there's a pattern here with the hands. appears to be what you're saying is, ah, the people are nuts. what are you gonna do? [ laughter ] what are you gonna do? you have an interesting show tomorrow. tell us about the show you have tomorrow. >> we do. well, you know, our shows are driven by our viewers and what they really are interested in. they write us. they get on our message boards. everybody has seen this story of this 41-year-old teacher that started dating his 18-year-old student. >> jimmy: right. >> and it's here in california. and actually, we said, i want to know, what goes through a teacher's mind? first off, why do they think they're going to get away with it? what is it that is so appealing about it?

so, we invited them to come on. >> jimmy: i can answer the second question. >> i know, i understand. [ laughter ] yeah, i saw your eyes light up when i said that. >> jimmy: really? you don't know? >> what do you do the other 23 hours and 50 minutes of the day? okay, so -- >> jimmy: even more. >> so, we invited them to come on and tell their side of the story. and he had never met her mother. >> jimmy: oh, really? >> and her mother said, i will come to the show. but i am not going to be on stage with this guy. and then she got there and said, yeah, i want to talk to him. >> jimmy: and now, they're dating. [ laughter ] >> so, for the first time ever, she meets this guy that took up with her daughter. >> jimmy: oh, boy. >> and there's no law against -- if they're 18 in california, doesn't matter if they're a student. you send your daughter to school and she starts dating her teacher. >> jimmy: he's not still her teacher, is he? >> he resigned. obviously, ahead of -- >> jimmy: now an unemployed 40-year-old. >> unemployed ex-teacher, 41 years old.

i don't know what they're going to do. it is a very interesting conversation. >> jimmy: let me guess. you were on his side throughout this. >> yeah. yeah. >> jimmy: why would he even come on your show? >> you know -- >> jimmy: what's wrong with these people? >> the guy's got to know i'm going to ask the hard questions, right. >> jimmy: yeah, and possibly beat him up. >> and i'm going to ask the follow-up questions when i get the answer that's nonresponsive to the hard question. i'm going to ask the question. >> jimmy: when these people come on your show and, you know, you will interrogate them. you'll yell at them sometime. you'll scold them. >> i don't yell at people. >> jimmy: you kind of yell at them. >> i do not yell at them. >> jimmy: when that happens, is it uncomfortable? are you -- when you're sitting there with them, do they threaten you? is there ever trouble? >> look, i never confront somebody just to be confronting them. and i never support just to be supportive. what i do is, if somebody needs a serious wake-up call, i feel like i owe it to them to give them that. if i think what they're doing is crazy, self-destructive, ruining

the marriage, ruining the kids, shouldn't you tell them? i mean, i just feel like when people talk to me, they shouldn't have to guess where i stand when they're through talking to me. i think i owe them better than that. i tell them the truth as i see it. >> jimmy: beautifully positioned. [ cheers and applause ] well, that sounds like a good show tomorrow. >> you think they bought it? >> jimmy: i think so. dr. phil, everybody. the great dr. phil. watch him every day. watch him tomorrow.

tears were shed. i think a droid lost a foot. and our next guest ended up frozen in carbonite. here to explain her intergalactic journey of heartbreak and love from "the bachelor," lindzi cox. [ cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ] that's very nice of you. how are you? >> i'm doing awesome. how are you? >> jimmy: i'm doing well. want to ask you one thing that has nothing to do with "the bachelor." quickly. you spell your name l-i-n-d-z-i, correct? >> i do. >> jimmy: how did this happen? >> it was really s-e-y. my parents threw the z in there. >> jimmy: were they drug addicts? >> i don't know. i need a little zing you know? >> jimmy: so, you changed it to z-i. do you think that played into ben's decision? do you think that could be the root of this? >> you know, if it did, i don't

really want him. >> jimmy: all right. is that your overall -- because i think that is the healthy way to look at all this. >> yeah. >> jimmy: because, look, let's imagine there was no courtney or whatever and you guys got together. obviously this wasn't meant to be. >> right. >> jimmy: and do you feel like -- i'm lucky that this happened? instead of unlucky or hurt? >> i think, you know, in the moment obviously. you're, like, getting off this helicopter in switzerland. maybe going to get proposed to. maybe going to get dumped and you have no idea. >> jimmy: we've all been there. >> we've all been there. i was looking at chris harrison's face to, like, see -- >> jimmy: you were studying. >> that man has a poker face, let me tell you. >> jimmy: he's been through this a lot. i don't think it's even that he has a poker face. i think it's he doesn't care anymore. he's like the coroner. you see so many dead bodies, oh, this one's decapitated. whatever. >> another one bites the dust. i think, you know, hindsight, he

made his decision, you know. like i'm in a really good place. and i'm happy how it ended up. i respect it. >> jimmy: now, courtney, this courtney, now, she seemed like -- it seemed like none of the other females in the house liked courtney. true? >> yeah -- >> jimmy: did any of them like her? >> i didn't dislike her. >> jimmy: some of the people disliked her intensely. certainly what we saw on the air made her the villain. >> right. >> jimmy: you could say it's editing or whatever -- >> i think she made herself the villain. >> jimmy: there were some bad things said. it seemed like she was scheming, is what it seemed like to me. >> yeah. >> jimmy: do you ever think, like, right before -- when ben was making the decision, i got to tell you everything she did? >> you know, i never saw that side of courtney. we were, like -- you know, we weren't friends. but we were cool with one another. and i never -- all the mean things she said about my friends on the show. and me, she called me boring, which i kind of have an issue with. >> jimmy: did that bother you? >> i didn't see it till we all watched it on air. >> jimmy: did you watch the show every week? sit there on television watching it? >> it was hard to watch. it was just weird. so i watched it with, like, my ten best girlfriends and my

other friend bought a bottle of wine or a couple bottles of wine because it makings it a little easier. >> jimmy: it makes life easier. >> you're, like, i said that? that's true. amen. >> jimmy: so, what would go on in that group viewing where you had your ten friends and you're sitting there? and they're watching you and they know how -- i mean, of course they know how it ended. are they supposed to know how it ended, by the way? >> i didn't tell them. >> jimmy: but they have to know. >> i didn't even tell my parent. >> jimmy: didn't they notice when you're drinking the wine right out of the bottle? >> that's normal. normal. >> jimmy: you didn't tell you parent, huh? >> i'm a steel trap. >> jimmy: wow. >> i think everyone should sweat it out like i did, you know? >> jimmy: why not. so, okay. so, you're unable to get any -- like, you guys are so cute together. and look at this and that. >> stay tuned. >> jimmy: and you knowing there's a bad ending to the whole deal. >> you know what though? it was a good ending. >> jimmy: was it?

>> like, everything happened. i'm happy for them. i'm happy for me. >> jimmy: are you really happy for them? would you submit to a polygraph test? >> sure. sure. i've never had one of those. >> jimmy: you're not really happy for them. >> those are fun in movies. >> jimmy: you're not happy for them. >> i am. >> jimmy: you don't wish ill on them. >> i wish best for them. >> jimmy: ben seems like a nice guy. is he a nice guy? >> i think he's a nice guy. he was nice to me. >> jimmy: do you feel like he led you on? >> yeah, maybe a little bit. >> jimmy: because when i watch -- because i didn't know what to think. but when i watched tonight. and i watched the episode, it was clear to me that he knew he -- i mean, it's a tv show. you have to have two people at the end. >> he didn't go skinny dipping with me. so, clearly -- >> jimmy: he didn't go skinny dipping with you. so, there's something there just to start with. did you make love to ben during the course of the show? >> stay tuned. >> jimmy: what's stay tuned? it's over. >> bachelor after hours. gets awkward. >> jimmy: interesting. i wonder about that, too. how can you go from two weeks earlier you're in the fantasy

suite with three different girls doing probably everything, i don't know exactly what goes on, to standing there with a ring in your hand proposing to someone. it just doesn't make any sense. >> i think that -- >> jimmy: why? >> i don't know. ask him, call him. >> jimmy: it's not just him, it's everyone. it's every bachelorette. it's every bachelor. and i don't understand it. it doesn't make any sense to me. >> i think i'd like to have all those options. >> jimmy: you would like to sleep with 25 guys? on television? you would like to be "the bachelorette"? >> how fun would it be to have all these roses and, like, that one, maybe, go home. >> jimmy: you think it would be fun or you think it would be terrible? let's practice. pretend i'm the bachelor -- pretend you're dumping me. giving the rose part is the easy part. pretend you're withholding the rose. this is like an audition. >> this is how i'd do it. i'd say, jimmy, i really like you.

>> jimmy: thank you. am i supposed to take it? you can't hold it out like that. it's cruel. >> see, that's what i'd do. i'd, like, take the bait. >> jimmy: you'd be the worst bachelorette ever. you'd be like the snatchlorette. >> no, next. >> jimmy: well, you got to work on that if you're going to be the bachelorette. >> i'll practice. >> jimmy: so, okay. now, if you do want be to the bachelorette, you know you have to stay single till the show comes back the next time. >> i know. >> jimmy: so, that's going to be something. you should probably maybe join a convent or something like that or -- >> that's going to be tough. i haven't been able to date. so, like, i think coming this week, i'm just going to be -- >> jimmy: you're a time bomb. i caught you on a good night. >> watch out, seattle. >> jimmy: guillermo, grab a bottle of wine, will you? >> okay. >> jimmy: well, you're a very good sport. i'm glad you came out happy. >> i'm so happy to be here. >> jimmy: thank you for being here. i hope to see you again as the bachelorette the next time around. lindzi cox, everyone. we'll be right back with music from keane.
