Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay called in reinforcements to narrow the field on her first group date on Monday, May 29. Here, The Knot highlights the top five moments from the action-packed episode, including one of Hollywood’s hottest couples and a furry special guest.

1. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher Judge the Gents
The gentleman are surprised to find Kunis and Kutcher when they arrive for the first group date. Dean, Jack, Blake, Iggy, Kenny, Fred, and Lucas are challenged to a “real-life obstacle course,” which includes vacuuming and changing diapers.

The men are certain, however, that their dream girl will see through Lucas’ shenanigans. During his one-on-one time with Rachel, Blake shares that Lucas just wants to be on TV.

2. Rachel is Bored to Tears
Despite the drama between the men, Rachel is bored by her suitors. The conversations are dull on her group date until she spends time alone with Dean.

“I was really disappointed by how tonight was going,” Rachel admits in the confessional. “There’s no excitement; there’s no spark, [then] in walks Dean being a complete breath of fresh air.”

Dean is concerned that he ruined his chance by not kissing Rachel. But after receiving the only date rose, he walks Rachel to her car and gives her a goodnight kiss.

Peter is surprised when he arrives for his date and Rachel asks if she can bring a friend along. Her beloved pup Copper joins them on a private jet to Palm Springs, where they enjoy a day at Bark Fest with Copper and other canines.
