I’m pretty sure that we can all just pack up our things, turn off the lights, and go home, ’cause we just got the best moment of Peter Weber’s Bachelor season/maybe the entire franchise.

[There are spoilers for the second episode of The Bachelor ahead. If you aren’t caught up, stop right here!]

Tonight’s episode was all about #champagnegate. Long story short, contestant Kelsey brought a bottle of champs from home to the Bachelor mansion in order to have a special moment with Peter. According to Kelsey, the bottle of champagne, which she got on her birthday, was much more than bubbly. She says, “The bottle shows my heart and what I want. I want to have a husband. I want to have a family.” And personally, I think that’s a bit too much pressure to put on a bottle of booze/a guy you just met, but no one is asking me!

Anyway, Kelsey sets out the bottle so that it’s all ready when she steals Peter for a moment during the pre–rose ceremony cocktail party, but before she has her chance, Hannah Ann and Peter see the setup and pop the champagne, not realizing that it was Kelsey’s special husband-and-family bottle.

Kelsey has a full breakdown and runs around the house crying until Peter pulls her aside to share another bottle of champagne. And this is where the magic happens, people, ’cause when Kelsey goes to take a sip from the bottle it all...just...explodes in her face. And I don’t mean to be dramatic, but it was probably the funniest moment of the entire franchise—and Twitter agrees:


People are also theorizing that it was all totally set up by producers:
