And then there were two on "The Bachelor."
Only a pair of women remains in the competition following Monday's episode of the ABC series. Chris Soules ended a visit to Bali by handing out roses to Whitney, a fertility nurse from Chicago, and Becca, a chiropractic assistant from San Diego.
To her surprise, Canadian bachelorette Kaitlyn was eliminated.
Chris will make his final choice on the season finale of "The Bachelor" in two weeks.
Chris' first date in Bali was with Kaitlyn. After taking part in a spiritual ritual with some locals, the two walked the streets and came across some monkeys. A handful of them jumped on Chris as he fed them bananas; one even urinated on his shirt.
Later, Kaitlyn struggled to let her guard down and tell Chris how she feels about him. Eventually, she admitted to him that she's falling in love with him. She accepted his invitation to the fantasy suite.
For his date with Whitney, Chris took her out for a ride on a boat, where they discussed her sister's unwillingness to give them her blessing during the hometown visit. Whitney said she was upset that her sister mildly spoiled a special moment for her, but Chris assured her that it didn't change their relationship.

She said that while she has a career there, she's not "fully happy" because she's missing something in her life, i.e. a partner. She said she wouldn't hesitate to move and start a new career as a family woman. She spent the night in the fantasy suite.
For his final date in Bali, Chris and Becca met with a medicine man. When she asked for advice for their date, the medicine man suggested she and Chris make love. It was an awkward response, since Becca had yet to admit to Chris that she's a virgin.
Once Becca was invited to the fantasy suite, she realized she had to confide in Chris. Once inside the suite, she shared her secret. Chris exhaled a few times before telling her that he respects the fact that she's saved herself for marriage. However, according to Chris, they had another conversation the next morning that left him confused regarding where they stand.
Wondering whether Becca lost her virginity in the fantasy suite? Well, it wasn't made clear in the episode.
All three ladies met with Chris at a temple, where hand-holding was permitted but kissing was not. Chris and Becca excused themselves to clear the air after their last chat. Chris said he cares for her but that the week had been a challenging one for him.
After rejoining Whitney and Kaitlyn, Chris began the rose ceremony. He first presented a rose to Whitney before giving the second and final rose to Becca. As he said his goodbyes with Kaitlyn, she asked what went wrong in their relationship. He replied that it boiled down to a tough decision that required him to follow his heart. She was still puzzled by her elimination as she was taken away in a car.
Next Monday night, ABC will air the "Bachelor: Women Tell All" special, featuring the return of polarizing bachelorette Kelsey.
