ABC is borrowing from “The Mole” to shake up the next installment of “The Bachelor.”
When the show debuts April 7, NFL quarterback Jesse Palmer will meet 25 women. But one of them will actually be an informant, charged with giving Palmer the scoop on what the rest of the women are saying about him behind his back.
The other women are the only ones being duped. Palmer knows which woman is the spy, and viewers will find out her identity in the show’s second episode.
Palmer will hand out a “first impression rose” to the woman who makes the best initial impression on him.
The women vying for the attention of the New York Giants backup QB include a pro soccer player, an NFL cheerleader and three women named Jessica.
