*Day 1 opens up as the 20 cast members have risen, eaten a nice breakfast, and are all standing outside their 20 respective motel rooms which surround an area in which Joseph, the host, stands. All 20 castmembers stand in anticipation because each of them knows that this could be their first and last challenge in this game.*

Joseph: Welcome to the first Fear Factor Stunt in SBBTAMR 2!! This is a basic stunt which tests your navigational skills, skills of speed and determination, and most of all.... tests your fear of all kinds of disgusting animals! It's really a simple challenge when it comes down to it. It's gonna come down to who slacks off the most and we're about to find out who the two people are that don't want to win this game at all. Are you ready for your first stunt?

*Some of the cast screams "YEAH!".... while others keep trying to figure out why they're awake so early for this.*

Joseph: Now, to do this challenge, you need to make sure that you have checked in to
The Fear Factor Group. Once you've joined that group, you're ready to go. However, you do need to make a personal photo album titled "(Your name)'s Stunt #1". That's all you have to do. That's the first step. Now, for your stunt.... here we go.

You'll each start out in the very creepy shower in your respective motel room in our own Bates Motel. However, in the bathtub is a mixture of cow, sheep, and pig blood. It fills the bathtub. Hidden inside the bathtub is also 2 keys. You must find both of them. (Show that you have found them both by simply posting in your photo album 2 pictures of 2 different keys.) Once you find both of them, one of them unlocks the bathroom door. Once you get the door unlocked you will run down to the pond 100 yards behind the motel. Then, the real fun begins. Find your box out of the 20 by simply putting your other key in each box until it opens. That is your box. Then, you will dive into the pond. I think it would be better if you saw what you have to then do.

*They all walk down towards the pond.* In the pond, I am placing 25 of
each kind of the following animals: snakes, cockroaches, and toads. You must get one of each of these and put them in your own personal box. (You will do this by finding a picture of any kind of snake, cockroach, or toad and posting a picture in your album in the Yahoo! Group.) Once you have all three of these... you will then run into the house on the hill. Run straight in, go downstairs and into the fruit cellar. There, you will find 25 rats. You must pick one of them up and carry it all the way down into the box. (Once again, post a picture of a rat or mouse in your photo album.) That gives you 4 animals in your box. However, you have one final thing to do. You didn't think that just finding 4 pictures was all you had to do was it. Nope. You then have to face one final fear.... searching all over this creepy area for 5 other pictures. These pictures must be put in your box (posted in your photo album). They include:

1. A picture of Halle Berry kissing Adrien Brody at the Oscars
2. A picture of Lance Armstrong, winner of the Tour de France.
3. A picture of Vecepia, winner of Survivor: Marquesas.
4. A picture of Richard Simmons (SCARY! AHHHH!!)
5. A picture of Joe Rogan, host of Fear Factor.
There ya go! Once you have all 11 pictures in your photo album... you are done with your stunt! It is a timed stunt. Sooo... the objective is simple. All of you go get into position and get ready to begin the stunt. The first 18 people to complete the stunt remain in the game. The last 2 to complete the stunt are eliminated. It's as simple as that. ON YOUR MARK..... GET SET..... DON'T BE SCARED.... BE VERY SCARED..... GO!!!!!!!!

*It is late at night on Day #1 in the game. All 20 contestants sit around a campfire. Some are dressed and have been for quite a while. Others are still dripping with swamp water and sweat. Joseph stands and makes the final and official announcement.*

Joseph: Well, after a long day in which some people did the stunt with ease, others stumbled, and some woke up late and started the stunt late, it all comes down to 2 of you that did NOT even start the stunt. In a somewhat shocking result......

Taylor and Adam have been eliminated from SBBTAMR 2 via Fear Factor Stunt 1!!

Fred, Darren, Michael, and Bob all completed the stunt in a 45 minute time frame as darkness fell on the Bates Motel, but they refused to let their fears get a hold of them and they conquered it. However, Adam and Taylor are no longer with us. Adam and Taylor.... we hardly knew ye! Taylor, a mysterious player who never quite showed up, leaves without any indention on the game at all. However, Adam the 2nd runner up in Season 1 left without any sign of life. This is due to the fact that Adam had a former engagement and could not begin the game. Who knows what would have happened if the game started a week later, but it didn't and we now know what happened. Adam and Taylor.... Fear was definitely a factor for you!

*Adam and Taylor rise, get their bags, and each get into a SUV to take them away.*

Joseph: You two can feel free to post any final comments on the message board in your journal. Now, for a quick check. Is it possible that Taylor and/or Adam were the Murderer and/or Mole? We're about to find out. Here's how this works. Everytime someone gets eliminated from this game, I type their name into this laptop. If the small television screen attached to it turns Green, then they are not the Mole or Murderer. If it turns Red, they are the Mole. If it turns Black, they are the murderer. It's as simple as that. Let's check this out.



*Joseph types A-D-A-M. The screen pauses, then turns green.*
Joseph: Adam was a regular contestant.



*Joseph types T-A-Y-L-O-R. The screen pauses, then turns green.*
Joseph: Taylor was also a regular contestant.



Well then, 18 of you now remain. One of you is the Mole. One of you is the Murderer. I will now send you 18 into 3 helicoptors that are coming from the distance as I speak. They will fly you to Las Vegas and you will stay in the Luxor Hotel. It is in the shape of a pyramid. This will be the site for Fear Factor Stunt #2. However, that will not take place until Monday afternoon/evening. It will NOT be a speed stunt, but some aspects of time will be involved in certain situations. So look for the challenge on Monday. Day 2 in this game will be a peaceful one. Or will it? Tomorrow, I'm asking the Murderer and Mole to record a Journal entry on your respective forum. Once you do this, I will then send them to everyone via e-mail. Each of you remember, make one statement in your journal entry false. Only one, no more, no less. Everyone else is encouraged to post in your own journals as well. As for the rest of you, enjoy Vegas on Day 2, because chances are, you won't be enjoying it on Day 3. Good night and God Bless!

*The helicoptors land and the remaining 18 players board them as Day 1 comes to a close.....*
