'The Bachelor' 2012 video: mystery girl explains Ben Flajnik interest

If you want yet another piece of evidence that Ben Flajnik's season of "The Bachelor" is desperate to amp up some drama, you don't have to look any further than what is going to happen during Monday night's new episode.

In a new video via ABC (which you can see to the left), Ben Flajnik's new "mystery" suitor is going to explain a bit more about why she is there. They have already spoiled that this woman is none other than Shawntel Newton from Brad Womack's season, and she is apparently hoping to win over Ben's heart after communicating some with him in the past.

Personally, what we love the most here is not necessarily Ben's reaction to seeing Shawntel, but rather watching some of the women start to spontaneously melt down. It also shows that none of these girls actually watched the show, since they don't have any idea who she is.

What do you think about Shawntel coming back? To view recent "Bachelor" photos, follow the link here.
