00:00I feel like I'm about to pass out right now.

00:06Wild, unpredictable, the most dramatic season ever, Chris Harrison wasn't kidding.

00:11Peter Webber's journey to find love on the Bachelor finale came to a close on Tuesday

00:15night filled with a broken engagement, a twist ending and one vocal Barbara Webber.

00:20Boy were fans in for a turbulent ride. The second part of the two-part finale picked up

00:25from Monday night's cliffhanger that saw frontrunner Madison eliminate herself from

00:29the competition, leaving Peter with just one lucky lady, Hannah Ann.

00:33Peter decides to forge on with his relationship with Hannah Ann, giving her his final rose

00:37and proposing on the final day.

00:39I love you, Hannah, and the love that you show me is all that I've ever wanted.

00:47It seems like Peter will finally get his happily ever after, or so we thought.

00:52On Tuesday night, host Chris Harrison steered a live show that included pre-taped footage

00:56of Peter's final week in Australia, as well as footage of his time after filming up until

01:01this week's live finale after show. This is where it was revealed that Peter spent the last

01:05few months still being torn over Madison and breaks off his engagement with Hannah Ann.

01:10Back on the live stage, Harrison was joined by Peter himself, who opened up about his struggles

01:23on the relationship, saying,

01:24The two later came face to face for the first time since their split on the finale stage,

01:31and Hannah Ann held nothing back, even earning claps of approval from Peter's own mother.

01:36So word of advice, if you want to be with a woman, you need to become a real ma'am.

01:45After her exit, fans were treated to more pre-taped footage, which showed Harrison flying

01:49to Auburn, Alabama to speak with Madison.

01:52So you regret what you did?

01:54Yeah.

01:56After admitting that she still has feelings for Peter, and realizing he broke off his

02:00engagement due to his feelings for her, she decides to forgive him. The two reunite,

02:04and decide to give things another go. Back at the live show, Peter and Madison come face to

02:08face for the first time since that day, and decide to take things day by day and start

02:13over in their relationship. Again, it seems like Peter might finally get his fairy tale

02:17ending, but not quite. The finale then took a wild turn in a moment that had social media

02:22in a frenzy, and no one, not even Peter himself, could have predicted, and that was

02:27Barbara Webber. Peter's mother, who many have called the true villain of the season, was

02:31sitting in the live studio audience and featured a number of times throughout the finale

02:35when cameras showed her reaction to the pre-taped footage. From applauding and cheering

02:40on Hannah Ann even after their breakup, to rolling her eyes and shaking her head in

02:44disapproval of fan favorite Madison, Barb was shockingly very vocal on Tuesday night.

02:49Things took an uncomfortable shift when Harrison turned things over to Barbara to weigh in on

02:53the new relationship. The bachelor's mother held nothing back, claiming that Madison was not

02:58madly in love with her son, would not accept a proposal, and added that she was three hours

03:03late to their meeting, which Mama Webber did not appreciate.

03:06So how do you expect a mother who loves her son with all of her heart to take that?

03:11Madison, who politely smiled throughout the segment, turned to Peter to jump in, who defended

03:15his family's passion but asked that they respect his decision. Still, Barb did not back down,

03:21which then turned into a rather uncomfortable back and forth, with Madison reiterating that

03:25this was her journey too, saying,

03:27this isn't just Peter choosing me, this is me choosing Peter.

03:30Whew, Chris Harrison was not kidding when he said to buckle up this season. And it was all

03:35downhill from there when Barb dropped a truth bomb about their relationship.

03:39Chris, he's going to have to fail to succeed. That's it.

03:43This rather cold take prompted major boos from the audience. Now, Peter, who had the final

03:49word, pushed back, creating a pretty tense family scene on live TV.

03:53I am telling you that I love Madison, and that should be enough.

03:58Whew, to be a fly on the wall for that family Thanksgiving.

04:03Tuesday's show also welcomed the new star of The Bachelorette, Claire Crawley, to the live

04:07stage, which had to turn into a rather brief exchange due to the unexpected

04:11Weber family showdown. Her season begins filming next week and is set to premiere May 18th.
