After an extremely long season of wondering who the hell Peter's mother Barbara Weber was crying about, we finally know the answer. It was Hannah Ann — and here's how everything went down.

In part one of the two-night finale of 'The Bachelor', Barb tells Peter that Hannah Ann is the woman for him and that she was the "angel" put on Earth to be with him. After Peter picked his final two women last week, they both got their time at the Weber home and met the family this week. While Hannah Ann's home date goes exceedingly well, Madison's goes just as badly.

Barb tells Madi that the "ultimatum" was unfair and she gets defensive saying that there was nothing wrong with having "standards". Barb agrees but ultimately tells Pete that she isn't in it for the right reasons. 

"She's not there for you," Barbara says. "I said a prayer last night... 'Please guide Peter today and guide Madison to see where they are in this relationship.' Madison's a sweet girl... but Hannah Ann's an angel on Earth," Barb tells the camera. "All I can do is pray that God enlightens him and sends him a sign. A mother's intuition is never wrong,"

Super distraught by now, Peter looks like he is sweating. He then gets defensive with the family, saying they don't know Madi like he does. This is when the iconic moment happens. 

"Hannah Ann loves you with all her heart. Don't let her go! Don't let her go! Bring her home to us! We will welcome her with open arms," Barb cries and adds, "She's a dream come true, and God has placed her there for you. That's what love stories are made out of." Peter then tells her to stop. 

"You have to stop doing this," he says as Barb cries some more. "I have emotions. I have feelings," Barb says. "I trust you with all my heart because I love you with all of my heart. I love you so much." 

So there you have it. It wasn't Hannah Brown, it wasn't Madison or even producer Julie LaPlaca. Barb was seeking Hannah Ann Sluss the whole time.
