Episode: #408

Location: Boston.....still. (Sheesh, they should just call it Real World/Road Rules Extreme Challenge Boston.) However they do go to a college soccer field.

Mission: The teams get mixed together and play some human Foosball or how I like to refer it as Fool's Ball.

Score: RW 3/ RR 2

Quote: "Oh, God!" -- Rebecca, in reference to James.




Summary

Now wasn't this a messed up episode. First, they meet up with some world renowned Soccer players. We see the Real Worlders and the Road Rulers practice some soccer moves and we soon see that Jamie and James are simply the best soccer players on the teams. Now, by this time, everyone is thinking that they're gonna play a mean game of soccer, however, BMP decides that that's just too normal. They are then sent to a field which is surrounded by hundreds of fans and in the center of it is an inflatable foosball setup. Then, BMP throws another chip unto the fan. They decide to change up the teams. They make James and Jamie team leaders and they have to choose 3 guys and 3 girls. James' team is composed of: Julie, Rebecca (who he didn't pick first), Dan, Christian, and Emily while Jamie chooses: Kameelah, Syrus, Michelle, Susie, and LT. LT and Kameelah make the first two shots, while Emily, Rebecca, and Rebecca win the game for James. The winners of this challenge got 1000 dollars each (not bad). The rest of the episode was about James and Rebecca, which I'll get to later.




Mission Notes

  • Continuity Problem: Well I didn't see much here, but after watching the previous episode. Did anyone get upset with Julie's hair color going from red to blonde. Also, did you check out how many check the Road Rulers had when Christian pulled out the Ayanna picture. There were 3. Hmm....Interesting.

  • Good News of the Week: The teams seem to be getting along very well. They haven't done anything with Susie yet though. I'm bitter.

  • Cliche of the Week: Alrighty now. In the first Challenge, it was Janet and Jason. Then, on the second challenge, it was Holly and Dan. Finally, On this challenge, it is James and Rebecca. How come that on these two to three week challenges, people hook up faster than when they were actually on the real show. I have no idea.

  • James and Rebecca: You know what? I actually like them. They are both really nice looking. Especially Rebecca. They match up perfectly with each other. James' insecurity about losing and Rebecca confidence in him make them inseparable. If they were on the Real World together, they would have hooked up. They are also really nice to each other. They rank number three in relationships on my list. Number one being: Dan and Tara, 2: Dan and Holly, 3: James and Rebecca.




NEXT WEEK: OK!!! Enough. It's like BMP ran out of ideas. Since they already used the army, they decided to use the Navy. Let's see who sinks or swims next week.


Go back to "Down N' Dirty".
