Farmington, Pennsylvania - After putting it all on the table to make sure she and Matt James were on the same page, Kit Keenan exited stage right of her own accord.

Matt James was cutthroat this week on The Bachelor, sending home two women after they confessed they were falling for him. But nothing compares to the savage move made by Kit Keenan after having a reassuring conversation with Matt on where she stood in his eyes and heart.

Hours after sharing her future plans with him to make sure they were seeing eye-to-eye, Kit knocked on Matt's door to let him know she wasn't going to be his one and only, and instead would be leaving the resort!

The 21-year-old contestant had spent most of the episode talking about how she felt on edge and unsure about where she stood with the bachelor, offering up comments of jealousy and pining for Matt's love.

After sitting down with him one-on-one, sharing how she wouldn't be ready to get married or have kids for several years, Kit told the camera that she would be getting one rose up for grabs that night.

The only problem was that Matt ended up giving Rachel the rose and led her out of the resort for a romantic date dancing to the soothing sounds of Aloe Blacc in a private performance.

Hours later, Kit showed up on Matt's door to break the news that she had doubts, and didn't see herself being the woman he got down on one knee for.

This move left the remaining women even more on edge than they were after Matt sent home two women right after they had bared it all to him.

Now, the four remaining women will battle it out as Matt James meets and gets emotionally grilled by their families or hometowns with one, shiny diamond ring on the line.
