Additional information is provided about some of the competitors including: Sabina, who admits that her ocean sailing experience was not as smooth sailing as she would have liked, but who also admits that she learned from her mistakes; and Wayne chucking in a life of academia for one of manual labor. For the two challenges in this episode, Daniel randomly separates the nine into two teams. For their first challenge, each team is provided an identical set of fifty packing boxes, each box marked on opposing sides with the name of two specific pieces of merchandise, generally two related types of items. Their task is to pack the boxes in such a way so that the names of the items facing out total more in retail value than the opposing team. The second challenge has each team designing and building a water craft capable of carrying all their team members and 1,000 pounds of sand across a 200 foot long pond. The catch?: they must also build a water craft using the other team's materials capable of the same task. Each team is given $1,000 for materials and an hour to shop. The fastest team to make it across the pond as specified with each of their two water craft wins the challenge. The two challenges end up demonstrating that there are generally eight competitors that try to work as a team and one person who always believes he/she is right, damn his/her team members. That dynamic has an effect on the challenge outcomes and who is ultimately sent to the danger zone of potential elimination. That danger zone challenge has the two competitors looking at a list of items, which will be placed on a conveyor belt with multiple other items, from which they must find the listed items. The winner of the challenge and the competitor that will stay is the one who gets the most number of items from the list. Written by Huggo See less
