That’s because on tonight’s episode of The Bachelor (March 5, 2012) we got the Women Tell All episode instead of the finale.

Below is a live, minute by minute recap of the Women Tell All episode.

RECAP: The show kicks off with a reunion at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas with a lot of old bachelor contestants of the past, including Ali Fedotowski.

Samantha verbally attacked Blakely. Brittney said she left the show because she had no attraction to Ben. She added she did not want to waste her precious time and wanted the girls who really liked Ben to have the extra time with him. She mentioned that Lindzi got the date that she was supposed to have and everything turned out for the best since Lindzi is in the final two.Brittney called Samantha “the chihuahua of the house” because she never stopped talking. Then we have Shawntel Newton join on stage. She explains that her time on the show consisted of two minutes with Ben and two hours with the women. She said it was hard for her to take all of the insults thrown at her and was hurt that she was called ugly and described as having “thick” thighs.  Elyse apologized to Shawntel for her comments and explained that she was blindsided by Shawntel’s visit. Emily said Shawntel is “drop dead gorgeous” which is why they did not want her sticking around.

Emily takes the hot seat. She says that Courtney may have told Ben not to keep Emily around. She also said that she would not want to like someone who actually believes in and falls for someone like Courtney. She took issue with Courtney’s skinny dipping and said Ben has to live with his choice if he picks Courtney. She said he made his bed and has to lie in it.READ MORE: NICKI IS STILL IN LOVE WITH BEN?

Nicki Sterling, the last woman rejected by Ben takes the hot seat next. She admits that she was in love with Ben and calls it a relief and exciting to have fallen in love. She says it took a few months, but she’s herself again and is happy. She can’t say enough good things about Ben.

Kacie B. is up next. She said the rejection made her feel that she wasn’t good enough. She said that she came back to talk to Ben to get some answers from him because she was shocked to be sent home.

The women then start the Courtney bashing. Samantha said Courtney was in it to win it.  Blakely said Courtney is not real. Kacie called Courtney a split personality and Erika said she was disrespectful to other people. Nicki says Courtney lied when she said she actually tried to get along with the women. Casey S. as usual defends Courtney. None of the women think Courtney came on The Bachelor to find love.

Courtney shows up to defend herself and all the women are surprised to see her. She said she has many regrets. Again, she says looking back, she would have done some things differently. She wanted to avoid confrontation initially. Blakely blames her for calling her a stripper and asks her to apologize. Chris asks why Courtney refused to accept Emily’s apology. Courtney said she should have accepted it and apologizes to Kacie B. for something she said at the beginning of the show. Courtney said she acted the way she did because she was uncomfortable given the circumstances.

Emily called Courtney on her BS, saying they were all uncomfortable as well but forged friendships on the show in support of one another regardless. Courtney broke down and apologized to all of the ladies for everything she has done during this season. No one seemed to buy it but a couple of people.

Ben finally joins the ladies on stage and says “welcome to my nightmare.” He says it’s hard on him to see all these incredible women again. They all want to know why they got dumped and what went wrong in their relationships. Jamie offered herself to Ben if things don’t work out with his chosen fiance. We really didn’t get too many good answers from Ben.
