'The Bachelor' Sneak Peek: The Girls Go Bobbing For Apples - And Ben's Heart (VIDEO)

In a sneak peek for tonight's episode of ABC's hit reality TV dating competition series "The Bachelor," Ben Higgins brings his bachelorettes back to school for an apple-bobbing relay race game and his charm is enough to distract one bachelorette from the task at hand.

Apples are Higgin's favorite fruit, but he's particularly fond of red apples, and he says they're "Red, just like my heart." The girls are to work in groups in a relay race, with one girl designated as apple bobber. The ladies are not allowed to use their hands as one bobs for the apple, then passes it to her partner so that she can place the apple on a tray to complete a school lunch of a sandwich, milk, potato chips and an apple.

"One of the most attractive things about this date to me is that I'm seeing these women really put themselves out there," Higgins, 27, tells the cameras, and he's seen cheering his ladies on, clapping and encouraging them.

"If my teachers in high school would've looked as good as these women did today, I definitely would've paid attention more in class," he continues.

But contestant Jackie is having trouble paying attention to her apple-bobbing task at hand because Higgins leans over the tank, watching her as she attempts to bite into the red apple using only her mouth.

"I'm just bobbing for this apple and all I can see is Ben staring at me and it's just like 'You're so adorable' and I think I may have gotten a little distracted," Jackie, the 23-year-old gerontologist from San Francisco, says in her on-camera interview.

Watch the full sneak peek below and be sure to catch tonight's episode of "The Bachelor," airing at 8 p.m. on ABC.
