To Hell and Back
September 9

(C-Note: the actions portrayed in this program are carried out by professionals under proper supervision. Do not attempt to duplicate.)

Four of the deadliest humans on the planet enter the field of battle. They will be tested in the realms of strength, speed, and intelligence. After each test, one will be eliminated until there is only one. That one will win $10,000 and the title of One Man Army.

Let's go hot.

STRENGTH CHALLENGE: Tug-Of-War

The four operatives will be attached to a center ring. They will have to pull themselves toward one of four lockout buttons. The first one who hit their lockout three times in the first two stages will advance. The remaining two will go head to head. The first to hit their lockout wins.

- Round 1: ADAM
- Round 2: ADAM
- Round 3: ADAM advances
- Round 4: MATT
- Round 5: DALE
- Round 6: DALE
- Round 7: TIM
- Round 8: MATT
- Round 9: MATT advances.

Next stage... TIM advances.

EXTRACTED: Dale

SPEED CHALLENGE: Water Coffin

Operatives will be locked in a water coffin that will be filled with 50-degree water. You will only be able to breathe through one hole. They will have to hold their breath and move quickly to a grating in the middle. They must then use a hacksaw cut open the grating and exit. The clock will stop down when you exit. At any point you feel like you cannot continue, tap out.

TIME IS CRITICAL; the slowest time will be extracted from the game.

ADAM: TAPOUT at 30:44.
TIM: TAPOUT at 4:03.
MATT: 29:11 - SAFE

EXTRACTED: Tim

INTELLIGENCE CHALLENGE: Observe and Report

The operatives will have three minutes to observe the daily goings-on in a mock village and remember as much detail as possible, all while depositing an envelope in a drop box. Then once the mortar in the town-square detonates, they must return to the safehouse and answer 10 questions on what they saw. The operative that answers the most questions correctly in the fastest time will win $10,000 and the title of One Man Army.

Adam's strategy is to do a lap, pointing out what's important and what's not. Next lap, spend a little time with what may be perceived to be a threat.

Matt's strategy...  divide the area into quadrants, then break those down into more details.

BOOM TIME.

Back at the safehouse, we move to the quiz...

1) What was the businessman holding after he got out of his vehicle? (cell phone, Matt up, 1-0)
2) Photo of one of the two men who were cleaning up blood and glass (Matt up, 2-1)
3) How many boxes did the deliveryman drop off? (four, Matt up, 3-1)
4) Who was wearing an expensive watch? (Matt up, 3-1)
5) How many pizzas did the pizzawoman deliver? (zero, Matt up, 4-2)
6) Who was transporting fertilizer and gasoline? (Matt up, 5-3)
7) What was one of the skateboarders carrying? (briefcase, Matt up, 6-4)
8) Who was handcuffed to a barrel? (Matt up, 6-4)
9 and possible win for Matt) Who had a weapon tucked in the back of their pants? (Matt wins, 7-4)

EXTRACTED: Adam

And Matt S., the only one to complete all three challenges, gets to lay claim to the spoils of victory, namely $10,000 and the title of One Man Army.

Four more operatives next time...
