In Dallas, the Bachelor, 36, meets Rachel’s mom, who asks, “Have you ever dated a black girl?” As fans know, things at some point fall apart between Viall and Rachel, given that the 31-year-old attorney was named the season 13 Bachelorette on Monday, February 13.

Later, Viall and viewers alike finally get their first glimpse at one of the season’s most talked-about but heretofore-unseen figures, Raquel, a.k.a. Corinne’s infamous nanny. In the promo, she asks the Bachelor, “What is your intention with her?” No word on whether any cheese pasta was consumed during the conversation.

The two-time Bachelorette runner-up’s most uncomfortable chat appears to be with one of the ladies’ dads. Viall asks, “Would I have your blessing? Would you be OK with that?” And the father replies, “I just can’t give you my blessing.”
