'Bachelorette' Comes To Colorado For Hometown Date

Pro Snowboarder Makes Final Four

"The Bachelorette" is down to her final four suitors and one of them is from Colorado.

Jesse is a professional snowboarder who lives in Breckenridge, Colo.

For tonight's episode, bachelorette DeAnna Pappas visited each of the four final suitors in their hometowns, meeting their family.

Jesse's family flew to Breckenridge to tape this episode in mid-April.

A news release from ABC entertainment said the daredevil athlete is a patient teacher and DeAnna catches on quickly, maneuvering her snowboard through the soft powder.

But it sounds like things didn't go so well off the slopes. The news release mentions the bachelorette trying to win over Jesse’s parents at a nerve-wracking dinner.

However, there is a treat for the couple when they finally share their first kiss during a romantic twilight horse-drawn carriage ride.

Two fans of the show told 7NEWS, Jesse has "been doing well – fun, cute, endearing."

But they said he totally blew it last week by not kissing DeAnna. They think Jesse "moved himself into the friend zone."

There are three other suitors left; Graham, the professional basketball player from North Carolina, Jeremy, the real estate attorney from Dallas and Jason, an account executive from Washington state.

ABC entertainment said Jeremy surprised DeAnna on his hometown date when she arrived in Dallas by showing up on his motorcycle to take her for a ride.

Both of his parents have passed away, so instead, he shared an old family photo album with DeAnna and read from his mother’s journal, solidifying his emotional bond with her. DeAnna met Jeremy’s brothers and sister-in-law at dinner.

DeAnna then travels to Seattle, where she must not only win the approval of Jason’s parents, but someone even more important: the bachelor’s 3-year-old son.

ABC said the rest of the family also made her feel very at home when they prepared an elaborate Greek feast for her.

The question for DeAnna becomes is she falling for Jason or his family?

Finally, the Bachelorette travels to Raleigh, North Carolina, to join her charming Southern gentleman, Graham , who is desperate to have her all to himself. The couple go one on one on the bachelor’s old high school basketball court and share a center court kiss. Graham seems more than willing now to open up and share his feelings with DeAnna. His parents welcome her with open arms.

At the end of tonight's show, DeAnna must send a bachelor home. ABC said both DeAnna and the bachelor are brought to tears. The question now is which bachelor will it be?

"The Bachelorette" airs tonight on ABC-7 at 7 p.m.
