'The Bachelorette' Premiere Preview: The Guys Get Out the Vote!

With every promo ABC releases for The Bachelorette, we learn vital new details about how, exactly, Britt and Kaitlyn will be humiliated on night 1 — the night that a group of random guys decides which one of them deserves to be the actual Bachelorette. This latest teaser is no exception, as we finally get a glimpse of how The Vote will go down.

Step 1: Chris Harrison breaks the news to the “ladies.”

Step 2: The men enter the candlelit Decision Chamber and stand somberly in front of framed photos of Kaitlyn and Britt, both resplendent in off-the-shoulder tops, which are hanging on the wall.

Step 3: After selecting a rose, the men will place it in one of two grand wooden boxes to cast their vote. Please note that the aforementioned boxes have ROSE-SHAPED HOLES carved into their lids, which is a beautiful, brilliant detail. I hope whomever on The Bachelorette creative team came up with that idea got a raise, a promotion, and a free car. It’s just that perfect.

Step 5: Chris Harrison makes the big announcement.

Well, rose lovers, does this make you more or less excited for the new season? And do you think ABC will start selling those rose-boxes at Pottery Barn? I totally want one.

The Bachelorette premieres Monday, May 18 at 9 p.m. on ABC.
