The "Bachelor" franchise has faced its struggles with ratings and controversy over the years. "The Golden Bachelor" added a new wrinkle to this season: boredom.

But in part one of the season finale last night, Mel explained for himself why he was the wrong choice to be Season 2's Golden Bachelor. But you had to be listening closely to catch it.
