A Conspiracy Theory?
Texas manufacturing representative Steve Carbone posted February 18, 2009, on his website, www.realitysteve.com, that someone close to The Bachelor series revealed to him that a dramatic and shocking ending would transpire for the show. He states that the facts are that Jason and Melissa are no longer dating and that Jason is now dating Molly. Carbone insists that the producers of the show noticed an immediate romantic vibe between Molly and Jason and were afraid that the show would be ruined if they didn't ask Jason to create conflict. Host Chris Harrison denied that the show has ever been involved in scripting the ending for any season ever.MLive: Michigan's Molly Malaney... (February 19, 2009)EW.com: Chris Harrison Blogs...(February 24, 2009)Carbone also claims to have information regarding e-mails between Jason and Melissa that hint that she knew nothing about the outcome of the show and that Jason was just doing what the producers had wanted him to do.Dose.ca: ...Bachelor Conspiracy?

Post Finale Spoilers
While Jason Mesnick picked Melissa Rycroft during the finale of the program, the relationship started to unravel after the taping of the program, but prior to the final air date. After the finale aired on March 2, 2009, Mesnick went on The Jimmy Kimmel Show and announced his affection for runner-up Molly Malaney. -
Bachelor March 2, 2009 Spoilers
Deanna Pappas returns to the show and visits Jason Mesnick. She talks about the mistakes she made with other men. She talks Jason Mesnick through his decision. She is convinced that she choose badly. Jason rebuffs her advances. As she leaves, she gives him the advice, "Be Smart, Be Honest" when choosing the woman of his dreams.With 15 minutes left in the program Mesnick sends Molly Malaney home.
Resnick ultimately told Melissa Rycroft that he loved her, bent down on one knee and proposed to her. She needed a moment to collect herself and said "yes". When all was said and done, Mesnick presented Rycroft with the perfunctory "last rose". She also accepted the rose.

After The Final Rose Part 1
- Jason Mesnick confided in Chris Harrison that after he and Melissa Rycroft spent time together as an engaged couple, the "chemistry was not there" and he had not been able to get over Molly Malaney. When Melissa Rycroft came out on the set, Mesnick broke off their engagement and she was devastated. After Rycroft left in the limo, Molly Malaney joined him, and he asked her for a second chance. Stunned and at a loss for words, Malaney finally and happily agreed. Reality Steve's spoiler's source was correct, but after watching the emotions play out, I do not agree with him that this was staged by ABC, to garner ratings. You heard it here first, I give Molly Malaney just months before she dumps Mesnick...how could she ever trust him after this?
