AGOURA HILLS, CALIFORNIA: In the upcoming episode of 'The Bachelor' Season 28, the drama unfolds as contestant Maria Georgas faces criticism from Joey Graziadei. The preview suggests Georgas is on the verge of a breakdown.

However, fearing elimination, viewers must tune in to the episode to uncover the details. In the preview, Sydney Gordon accuses Georgas of stirring unnecessary drama, prompting a heated exchange where Georgas noted that she felt like she was in a horror movie.

Sydney, tired of Georgas' drama, told the cameras, "I can't tolerate a mean girl. It's something I need to address with Joey ASAP." She then approached Graziadei, revealing the 'mean' behavior of Georgas in their chat.

Disappointed in Georgas, Graziadei confessed in the confessional, "The idea of someone not showing all sides of themselves." Despite other contestants appearing happy when he pulled Georgas for a talk, Gordan remarked, "Joey is going to see her true colors."

The tensions between Graziadei and Georgas escalated further, with the ABC show star saying, "Right now, I just can't get past us not being on the same page." Georgas attempted to clear her image, telling the cameras, "It's not my fault... I don't know if I can convince them that I'm not that person."

During Episode 2 of 'The Bachelor' Season 28, Georgas and Gordon had a huge feud during the afterparty. Earlier in the day, Madina Alam, who is 31, expressed her insecurity about being the oldest woman in the house.

Confused by her insecurity, 29-year-old Georgas shared with other women in the villa that she didn't see an issue with being older than Graziadei. She advised Madina to embrace it. Meanwhile, Gordon informed Alam that she overheard Georgas making a 'condescending' comment about her age.

Alam then confronted Georgas which further escalated into a tense conversation. Maria explained that she was not trying to be rude and only wanted to empower Alam. Georgas later dubbed the drama as the 'dumbest fight in Bachelor Nation history'.

'The Bachelor' Season 28 contestant Georgas approached Graziadei for a conversation, confessing her feelings for the ABC show star. She told Graziadei that she 'already' felt an attraction to him.

Georgas then stepped away to 'slip into something more comfortable' than her white corseted dress which she wore during the wedding game. She returned in a black lacy bra top and matching skirt and said, "I'm not trying to seduce you, but if it's working, I’ll take it."

Graziadei swooned away at the stunning-looking Georgas and expressed his desire to 'get to know more about who Georgas is,' mentioning, "Since you’re wearing this, all I can think about is." The two then shared a romantic evening filled with kisses.

New episodes of 'The Bachelor' Season 28 airs every Monday at 8 pm ET on ABC.
