The Ruins- The Road to Ruins: Episode 3


So today's episode starts off with Evan loathing Veronica on a boat. And yeah, and then Tonya acting like a psycho on the boat by climbing the mass. Back home Veronica starts telling Evan she's nervous because she hasn't done a challenge in a while but Evan says he'll protect her. Then in another room Adam and Brad start saying the need to go into The Ruins and start taking out Champions.

So for, what is it, the third episode in a row, Wes has a meeting with his team telling them he wants to work things out, he wants to change, and, oh yeah, he's going to donate his winnings to... charity?!

So challenge time comes and the Challengers immediately agree Danny, Adam and Brad will go in after they volunteer. Brianna volunteers herself but Casey is a little adamant when they say her name. But after a vote, she is voted in along with Kim who volunteered.

The Champions choose Kenny, Evan, and Syrus. They have a problem with the women too when Ibis and Susie volunteer but Veronica and Tonya resist. Johnny says that Veronica is shady and I quote,
"Instead of going to work to get the raise, she says why not just f*** the boss and I'll get it that way." (LOL)
But the majority ends up voting Veronica in anyways.

The challenge is called Repo Race. The object is to get all of your teammates over a what looks to me like an extremely easy obstacle course with out touching the sand. What you do is line up on the ground so your teams runner (Champs- Derrick, Challengers- Cohutta) can walk on you and then the back of the bridge comes to the front (god, why isn't Big Easy on this challenge?).

So they start and Cohutta touches the sand sending the challengers back to the start and giving the Champions a lead. Throughout the rest of the race the teams are tied. Towards the end, the runners had to grab a bag and this caused confusion with Derrick. Then as he was running he hit the sand and had to go back. The Challengers were very calm at this point and Cohutta ended up running past the finish line first. You know what that means, don't you? I know, THE APOCALYPSE! Ok, not that, but yes, the Challengers won!

So the Challengers go back home with their six nominees and deliberate as to who should go in. They decide to do secret ballots (dumb idea IMO). Brianna ends up getting 5 votes and Adam gets 3. And they have no objection (Why the hell would you not vote Casey?). Adam easily picks Syrus to go against because he's friends with Kenny and Evan. Brianna picks Susie and Kim questions her and she still wants it.

So in the ruins, they are playing a game called "Burnout" where they stand on a platform holding a wheel, trying to maneuver shooting water to put out their opponents fire. The girls go first, and Bri is doing a hell of a job. That is until Susie sadly wins. And Brianna goes home.

Then comes Syrus and Adam. Adam starts off really good and Syrus is getting nervous. Adam gave it all he could but Syrus ended up winning sending Adam home and taking his money. Now there is only 8 challengers left :(
