The first rose ceremony on 'The Bachelor' certainly packs on the pressure when it comes to bagging a rose. After all, it boils down to making an impression while 30 other women are trying to do the same. So while some women try to squeeze in mini-dates, mementoes and other things to make them stand out, others go straight in for the kill -- a kiss.

So when it came to Teddi Wright, she wasted no time in letting Clayton know what she was there for. And she definitely ruffled a few feathers along the way. But it clearly paid off, seeing that she had Clayton absolutely smitten.
