RealWorld/RoadRules Challenge: The Duel 2—Episode 2 Recap
RW/RR Cast Plots and Backstabs in the Duel II
These are the rules of RW/RR. After each challenge, there will be one guy winner and one girl winner. Those two will then deliberate on which person they will choose from the remaining players. The person they choose will then choose another player or the opposite sex, that process continues until there is one guy and one girl left not chosen. Those two remaining players will be going to the Duel. The two players then choose one player of the same sex to face them in the Duel.
Each challenge is individual, and at the end there will be six players competing for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place cash prizes.
Previously on The Duel II
Twenty-six former Real Worlders and Road Rulers met in New Zealand to compete for $300,000. Alliances were formed early on in the game. CT and Adam got into a fight over Shauvon possibly hooking up with CT. CT and Adam were sent home and MJ and Nehemiah were brought in to replace them. One rookie, Nick, was sent home after the first male Duel against Ryan. The episode ended before the first female Duel between Aneesa and Shauvon.
The First Female Duel: Back Off
Aneesa and Shauvon each have a harness with a hook on their backs, the objective of the game is to grab the other person's hook and attach it to the ring suspended behind them. Whoever hooks their opponents hook twice is the winner. Before the duel begins Aneesa says, "I refuse to go home."
The two women circle each other before wrestling to the ground. Their hooks fall off but they don't even notice, they just keep fighting. Eventually, Aneesa picks Shauvon's hook up off of the ground and hooks it onto the ring. They go at it again and Aneesa hooks Shauvon's other hook. Aneesa wins the Duel and Shauvon is sent home.
Only a few people hug Shauvon goodbye because of the drama that went down the other day with CT and her and DIem.
"The game just got real," Evan said after the Duel is over.
The Next Challenge: Freezing As Puck
The contestants walk into an ice rink with huge blocks on ice on it. The ice blocks are used as pucks and will be shot across the ice into colored circles worth different points. Each player will be part of a pair, one girl and one guy. One player sits on the block of ice while the other player pushes the player on the ice to try to get inside the circles. If the person on the block touches the ice, they're disqualified.
The first round is two teams of six pairs competing. The team with the highest score moved on to round two. In the second round, the winning team is split into two teams of three pairs competing. The winning team from round two moves onto the final round where three pairs compete individually. The winning pair is safe from the Duel.
The guys are wearing speedos and the girls are wearing bikinis. Eric says, "Big Easy in a speedo is kinda like Santa Claus on Atkins, it's something you don't want to see happen but you kinda wish it would."
The final three pairs are Landon and Brittini, Mark and Rachel, and Brad and Tori. Mark and Rachel and Landon and Brittini tie and have a tie breaker where they push for distance instead of points. Mark and Rachel win and are safe from the Duel.
Choosing Who Will Go Into the Duel
Mark and Rachel decide to choose Aneesa first. Other players in the house try to decide who is picking who later on, with Paula and Evan deciding everything. When it comes time to pick people, Paula goes against what Evan and her decided and picks Dunbar instead of MJ. Evan tells her, "that was really f***ed up."
Robin is the last girl and MJ is the last guy. MJ chooses Ryan to go against him in the Duel. Robin chooses Kimberly. Back at the house, everyone is in an uproar about Paula and Evan running the show.
The Second Male and Female Duels on RW/RR Challenge: The Duel II
The girls pick Duel Pole Dancing. There is a giant pole in the center with foot and arm holds to grab onto, like a rock climbing wall in pole form. Whoever climbs to the top and rings the bell first is the winner. Kimberly climbs to the top and wins, Robin is sent home.
The guys pick Push Over as their game. The players stand on a platform holding big pads, they have to push their opponent off of the platform twice to win. MJ knocks Ryan off first and then knocks him off again. MJ wins and Ryan is sent home.
Back at the house, everyone discusses how they distrust Evan and Paula and don't want them running the challenge anymore.
