WITH HOMETOWN DATES LOOMING, MATT TRIES TO DISCOVER THE BACHELORETTES' TRUE FEELINGS FOR HIM, TRAVELING TO SUN VALLEY, IDAHO, FOR ROMANTIC SKI AND SPA DATES, ON "THE BACHELOR: LONDON CALLING," APRIL 14, ON ABC

Two Individual Dates Make for Enchanted Evenings

"Episode 1205" � Now the pressure is really on, as Matt struggles to decide which four women he'll escort home to meet their families. But first he surprises the six remaining women with a trip to snowy Sun Valley, Idaho. Chelsea experiences a fairytale date with the handsome Bachelor, complete with a romantic candlelit dinner and a ride in a horse-drawn sleigh, while Noelle shares a night of ice skating under the stars. And, on the only group date, it's off to the slopes, as Matt takes the other four women on a ski date and finishes with a hot trip to a spa. But, unbeknownst to Matt, a screaming match breaks out among the women in the ski chateau, which almost leads to fisticuffs. The claws come out and tears reign as the Bachelor needs to select his final four ladies, on "The Bachelor: London Calling," MONDAY, APRIL 14 (10:02-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

A lucky Chelsea prepares for her crucial one-on-one date with Matt, as he worries whether there's any real chemistry between them, whether they're not just good friends. At a beautiful candlelit dinner, she lays her heart on the line, telling Matt how she really feels about him. The evening ends with some intimate time alone together in the Bachelor's cabin.

Matt and four of the bachelorettes � Amanda, Marshana, Robin and Shayne � hit the slopes for another spirited face-off. Matt takes Amanda and Marshana, who have never skied before, under his wing and gives each of them a private lesson with mixed results. The handsome Brit shares an intimate kiss with Shayne, an expert snowboarder. Robyn interrupts the couple, upset with Matt for not spending any one-on-one time with her, but after they talk, she seems reassured of their connection. He surprises the four ladies with a hot trip to a spa as a magical finish to the day.

Noelle and Matt go off for a romantic evening of ice skating under the stars. She overcomes her shyness and fear of opening up to the Bachelor when they both discover they're not the best ice skaters. Afterwards, inside a cozy winter cabin, Matt confides that he has been attracted to her from the start. At long last, Noelle feels comfortable about letting her guard down and expressing her feelings for him. A passionate kiss before the roaring fire seals the night. Meanwhile, back at the ski condo, the remaining women have it out and almost come to blows, until Shayne steps in and breaks it up.

At the villa in Malibu, Matt prepares for a crucial rose ceremony, questioning one woman's over confidence and another's obsession with her connection to the other women and not him. Matt must narrow the field to just four women � the four who will invite him into their families' homes � while two leave brokenhearted. And for one bachelorette, it's the shock of a lifetime.

The remaining six women are:

Amanda R., 27, an account executive from Niceville, FL.

Chelsea, 24, a pharmaceutical sales representative from Durango, CO.

Marshana, 27, a fashion designer from Brooklyn, NY.

Noelle, 26, a photographer from Loveland, CO.

Robin, 22, an advertising coordinator from Holland, MI.

Shayne, 22, an actress from Malibu, CA.
