The Golden Bachelor may be new, but it keeps up with the franchise’s long-running traditions — including the limo arrival. Of course, the women vying for Gerry Turner’s heart came with some truly chaotic introductions.

“I have a birthday tonight, so I thought, why not come in my birthday suit?” said financial services professional Theresa Nist. She started to disrobe before Gerry — only to reveal a nude slip underneath. “I couldn’t do that! I’ve got six grandsons.”

April Kirkwood also opted for a suggestive introduction — carrying a basket of eggs and telling Gerry she grew up on a chicken farm. “My eggs are still very fresh,” she teased before breaking into a chicken dance.

Leslie Fhima took a much more conservative approach by pulling up in a walker, house dress, and gray wig — only to ditch the costume and reveal a short black dress underneath.

Sandra Mason said she was nervous and launched into her “zen” meditation practice: taking a deep breath before exhaling swear words. “I like some of those F-words and S-words that a lot of people would say [gasp],” Sandra said in her intro video. “But that’s who I am.”

Renee Wright dressed as a cheerleader and performed a fun routine for Gerry. “I hope to bring you lots of luck, ’cause I’m the girl you want to… marry,” she said, narrowly avoiding an NSFW rhyme at the last second.

On her way into the mansion, Susan Noles shared a suggestive joke with Gerry. “You see these heels? I’m very comfortable with 6 inches,” she said.

One of Gerry’s limo arrivals wasn’t even a contestant! A woman named Aunt Chippy introduced herself, only to reveal that her invite was a favor from her famous nephew: Jimmy Kimmel. “She was such a good sport,” the Golden Bachelor told The Hollywood Reporter.

Faith Martin’s motorcycle entrance had both Gerry and her fellow women take note — but as he told The Hollywood Reporter, what really earned her the first impression rose “was the look in those soft brown eyes.” Aw...

Ellen Goltzer came with a moving intro. “Roberta, we made it!” she shouted upon her arrival — later sharing that her friend, Roberta, had cancer and encouraged her to go on the show. A post-credits dedication said that Roberta had passed away when The Golden Bachelor aired.
