In the season premiere, we get to meet Aaron again, and learn what motivated him to take his quest for love on to television. As Aaron puts it, "the timing couldn't be better." Aaron claims he is a full 180-degrees from Alex, the first Bachelor, and will not be misleading like Alex was. Aaron admits he would have liked to have seen a proposal from Alex, and when Chris asks him, Aaron says several weeks from now, he could see himself popping the question.

They immediately give a quiz to the women, with two one-on-one dates at stake. First One-on-One Date: Helene Shopping at Nicole Miller, and a private show at the Hollywood Bowl Melissa and Ryan choose Helene for Aaron's first one-on-one date, because they see her as a challenge to Aaron — something they think he needs.
