"Car-Go" - January 10
The show begins by Ruthie saying to Sophia "Today is
very important." Because the girls have been losing
challenges day after day, but have won on two missions.
Meanwhile, Eric talks about him and Mark about how they
are on the same page from the very start to protect each
other in the competition.
Later on the teams pick up their wireless phones to read
the message for their next challenge telling them to be
ready by 8:30 AM tomorrow and to wear tennis shoes. The
teams go to the location for their next mission and once
again being welcomed by host Johnny. They are shown two
cars connected to free-weight pulleys as the setup. The
chains on the setup have to be pulled to get the car to
be raised up and has to be done by four of the team
members. But before that can happen, they'll have to
load the STA Travel luggage into their cars in some way
(no stuffing, no breaking, etc.). The first team to get
their loaded car to raise ten feet of the ground wins
the challenge. Members of the winning team will receive
$2,600 in Precor fitness equipment for a total team
package of $13,000.
Since there are five guys and five girls remaining, the
teams will now elected two of their members to be the
team leaders. It's every man and woman for themselves
now. As the men deliberate on their leaders, they made
their decisions in like five seconds without discussing
them with Brad. He's thinking this could end up bad
based on his position in the competition. However,
Brad's letting that decision slide. The girls have their
deliberation, Ruthie decides to step up. Eventually, the
guys elect Dan and Eric the girls elect Ruthie and Tina
for the team leaders. In setting up the challenge the
men will have Eric pack the trunk, Brad and Theo will
deal with the small bags, Mark will load in the front,
and pretty much doing the stacking. Tina's plan for the
girls is to stack the bags vertically, but Ruthie thinks
it's better to do it horizontally. Then Tina agrees with
Ruthie's plan so the rest of the challenge should be
interesting. The honk of the air horn sounds, and the
mission officially begins. After the teams have stacked
the bags inside, they begin the lifting phase. In order
to win the team must have the bottle filled up with
water to be off the ground. The guys were the first team
to do just that giving them another win and the girls
another disappointing loss and there was some
finger-pointing and blaming among some of the girls. Now
the men's Inner Circle (Dan and Eric) will have to send
home Brad, Theo, or Mark and the women's Inner Circle
(Coral, Sophia, and Aryssa) will have to eliminate Tina
or Ruthie. As the Men's IC deliberates, Brad realized
that he could have stepped up and said that having Eric
as a team leader wasn't the right move to make. Arissa
has never been in the team leader position ever since
the first day of the competition. Tina is sick of
waiting for Ruthie to come out and dominate in the game,
because she hasn't done so at all. And Coral is doing
whatever it takes to get her share of $180K. At
Elimination Hill, the men made the difficult decision of
taking Brad out of the game. Brad felt like he was so
close to the end he could taste it. Despite Ruthie
stepping up in the last challenge, she was also sent
home from the BotS. It was her game, but it wasn't her
circumstance. Ruthie hopes that the girls who deserve to
make it to the final challenge, will make up for the
missions they've lost previously.
The men know that they are not really playing an honest
game and they aren't feeling bad about because of its
nature. But Brad is bothered by the fact that there are
certain people that shouldn't be in this game as he
gives his last words before leaving and Brad should have
made it to the end. Sopia knows that she must do well in
the next challenge, or she'll be the last girl to be
eliminated.
Four men and four women remain, who'll be the last ones
eliminated and who'll be competing for that $180,000
prize pool? You'll have to watch the next episode of
"The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Battle of the
Sexes II." |
