Viewers were left baffled during The Bachelor season premiere on Wednesday when a mystery ‘hot waiter’ was seen chatting to the contestants at the cocktail party.
And on Thursday’s episode, yet another surprise guest appeared to be lurking in the background during the nightly soirée.
While Romy Poulier boasted about her ‘great kiss’ with Nick Cummins on their date, a crew member darted across the screen in a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment.
That’s not the Honey Badger! Fans spotted a MAJOR Bachelor editing fail on Thursday night as a mystery figure lurked in the background during the cocktail party
The figure in the background is believed to be a producer or crew member.
They did their best to move through the frame without being detected, but weren’t stealthy enough to avoid detection.
Crouching down as they dashed past furniture in an adjoining room, their head was seen awkwardly bobbing over a tabletop.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Network Ten for comment.

It comes after Wednesday’s cocktail party was crashed by a handsome gentleman who certainly wasn’t the Honey Badger.
While the girls got to know each other, a debonair waiter was spotted in the background talking animatedly with the contestants.
Twitter users were also quick to spot the mystery man, with one writing: ‘I spy hot background waiter!’

Another asked, ‘Who’s that bloke?’, before wondering if the bearded waiter could play a larger role later on in the series.
Making several appearances, the server sauntered through the party while the single women flirted back coquettishly.
The Bachelor continues Wednesday at 7:30pm on Network Ten
