Episode One
Okay, we know your first question...who's going to hook up this season? Well, nothing is for certain yet but in Vegas there was some obvious sexual tension between Kat and David, and Amaya with just about everyone. Now, this can't be proven...and if approached about it, we would likely deny it, but rumor had it that Yes gave Kat a Hickey in Nevada.
David, Mike and Teck partied like rock stars the whole time we were in Sin City. By the end though, it appeared as if Yes wanted to join Teck's little band of 'Money Makers' and we started referring to him as 'mini-Teck.' More on this later as it develops =)
You may never see them this season, but both teams had bus drivers. The Road Rules driver, Mike, may be the sleaziest, shadiest character we have ever encountered. Mike was known to peruse hustler magazines, porno films in the bus, and the backs of female crew members when they least expected it. To Mike we say, back off Freak Boy!

Episode Two
Week 2 and things are as interesting on the road to Nashville as they were in Vegas...Hook Up Watch - As Jerry Maguire aired in one of the buses, Kat and Yes, David and Holly, and Mike and Amaya found themselves a little snuggly...we're not sure if romance is developing with any of these couples but the Love Patrol is still on the case.
As they traveled across the Midwest, Piggy and Mike started a friendly little game of Scrabble. It just didn't stay friendly for very long. It quickly became a challenge long tournament with a full body massage being the prize at the end. Both Piggy and Mike are regularly accusing each other of cheating...but we don't know if a winner was ever crowned.
"Hey Road Rulers, Get off my bus." - This was Heather B's most common phrase this week as Los, Yes and Dan seemed to spend most of their time on the RW bus instead of their own...which really makes no sense when you think about it, both buses have exactly the same stuff. At some point during the trip to Nashville, both teams received a little cash and Yes left his money on the RW bus. Heather hid it for a few days before giving it to Los and told him to tell Yes that he just found it somewhere. Heather, pleased with her first prank, struck again, leaving 2 bags of trash in the RR bus.

Episode Three
Veronica and her boyfriend from home, Jason, are having difficulties this week. Jason can't deal with Veronica's on-screen life and is upset with how she is portrayed in several of the Semester at Sea episodes. They have several heated phone conversations and Veronica starts to lament that its too hard to be both public and private. Piggy and Holly are very helpful to her during this whole ordeal.
Right before the challenge began, Piggy broke up with her boyfriend...and good for her, because he was an absolute freak boy (abusive, obtuse, aloof...pretty much jerk city). She still has some lingering feelings for him though and again the Road Rules women assist on the relationship front.
Yes and Alyssa still seem to have that loving feeling. Because of the distance and such, they broke up not because of anything else. The relationship might be over in their minds, but not in their hearts. Yes calls Alyssa several times during the trip and lets her know that he isn't fooling around with anyone and that he is still thinking of her...

Episode Four
At this point, the Road Rules Girls have had just about enough of Amaya's taunts and smug attitude, badmouthing her has become a regular sport on the RR bus.
Piggy has taken to regularly complaining about her flat chest. The Road Rules team resolves that if they win enough money, they will all pitch in and get the girl a boob job.
During one of the travel days, Amaya leaves her sweatshirt on the RR bus. Later when she sees Veronica wearing it, she comments to her teammates that she thinks Veronica stole it. Veronica hadn't in fact stolen it and just assumed it was one of her sweatshirts. Amaya never confronts Veronica however and just lets the situation fester...we will talk more about this later in the season.
Having lost 2 challenges in a row now, the Real World team is completely pissed (at least Heather, Kat and Amaya are) and claim its war time. We will see how everything goes from now on.

Episode Five
Before, during and after this challenge, Heather B is on the warpath. As the gang travelled to Dublin, the Road Rules bus was vandalized and they had to ride on the Real World bus until it was fixed, Heather B wasn't having it.Her anger continued and focused on Amaya after the Red Neck Games. Here's a little transcript:
Amaya: I can't believe they only gave me a four, pa-leese!
Heather: Knees first, you landed knees first.
Amaya: Whatever,
Heather: Let somebody here get a job and find out how hard it is to make ten Gs. When you come home and you think about the money you could have won, you will wish you took it more serious...you can't be choking and doing all that other bullsh*t, man. Yo, there's money on the line.
David accidentally clocked Dan in the lip during the greasy pig relay. Dan was busted open a bit but was otherwise okay.
Post Pie Vomiters - Kat, Veronica and Piggy.
Post Pig's Feet Vomiters - Amaya

Episode Six
Reidell Anthony is all over Piggy the whole time we are in Tampa Bay. As the Road Rulers are getting into their football gear, that she, especially, looks good in the gear. When Piggy walks around a blind corner, Reidell seizes her by the waist...Reidell explains he was trying to show her how to grab one of the flags. Reidell demonstrates a second time by slowly sliding his hands down her thighs...Reidell Anthony - Mack of the year?
During the play when Los scores his touchdown, some rough play puts Kat in pain. She is doubled over, holding her jaw and elbow. The referee calls an injury time-out while Kat is attended to. The medic is concerned about her having a broken jaw and when he touches her she screams out in pain. He tells her she may have a concussion...but Kat is a trooper and decides to keep playing.
Yes is named the MVP of the game, but several folks felt that Dan was the true MVP. While Yes did score one of the Key touchdowns, Dan made the key interception and fumble recovery...oh well, aren't we all just winners in the end?

Episode Seven
As the Road Rulers get ready for the Sister Hazel Concert, we had the following happen...
   Victory music rocks from the stereo as Holly and Veronica give the bus a much needed makeover; Holly washes dishes as Veronica scours the counter tops. Veronica says, "We are feeling good at the end of this mission 'cause we won." Ignoring the girls, Los sits at the dining table with the lap-top computer, eating French fries.
   A second later, Veronica comes into the cabin with a long-stemmed rose. She sweetly places it under Los' nose, and says, "Smell." Los takes a whiff and flatly states, "Its dead." Veronica mimics him and says, "Its dead." Holly steps over to the computer and asks Los, "What are you playing?" Los snarls, "I ain't playing nothing." Finally Piggy comes onto the bus. Sitting on the couch across from Los, she asks, 'What time is it?" Los doesn't respond, so Piggy asks again, "Do you have the time, Los?" Los looks at his watch, grins and replies, "Yup." Piggy asks, "Could you share it with me?" Los looks at his watch, grins and replies, "Yup."
   A little later, Holly watches as Veronica applies make-up to Piggy's face, in preparation for the Sister Hazel concert. Holly asks Los if he will be joining. He declines, explaining he is very excited by the idea of having the bus all to himself. Los says to the girls, "You ain't got to go home, but you got to get the hell out of here."

Episode Eight
After they complete the Scavenger Hunt, the Roadies head out to the club where the Real Worlders are partying and Piggy tries to make several advances on both Teck and David. She is highly unsuccessful as they both ignore her.
Veronica and Piggy discuss some strange behavior the morning of the Scavenger Hunt...
   "He's cleaning out the bus," Veronica explains, "And he's putting all this sh*t in a big brown bag." There's a huge trash bag on the bus filled with clothes, a Columbia Logo is easily visible in the bag. Veronica continues, "I go to throw something away, and there's all this Columbia gear. Like, the jacket he got -- everything from Road Rules, thrown away in the trash. I asked him, 'What's this doing in the trash?' and he said, 'Man, girl, mind your own business!'" Veronica suggests to Piggy that Los could at least give the clothes to homeless people. Veronica then explains that Los even tosses his $300 Road Rules Jacket. Piggy spits, "What? Why?" Veronica says, "I don't know." Piggy is dumbfounded. She shrieks, "It just doesn't make any sense! He's schizophrenic. That's so weird." Piggy ponders the situation, then offers, "He's so, like, intense. He never lets his guard down. There's never a time where he'll say, 'Was I a prick the other day, or what?' He wouldn't do that. He's tolerating us little people." Veronica says, "But I don't want to start anything with him. Anything I say, he's just going to tell me to mind my own business. Its like talking to a brick wall. He'll never give in. He's too self-righteous for that." Piggy and Veronica start walking away when Piggy just lets out, "Its so bizarre! I can't believe he's throwing away clothes!"

Episode Nine
When the Real Worlders are making their celebatory stroll during Fantasy Best, Teck has a bottle thrown at him on stage. The man who threw the bottle was a 'heckler' who had harassed the Worlders the night before when they were out at a club. Teck reacted quickly trying to jump into the audience to go after the guy. A cameraman, who shall remain nameless, held Teck back and then turned and attacked the guy himself. Most of the crew feared that an out and out brawl was going to break out...
The Cross Dresser judge was very into Young David and his Greek gear. She continued to ask David to take it off throughout the night. David seems to attract these wild 'ladies' doesn't he? We seem to recall David having a good time at a Cross Dresser Club in Seattle as well...
Just to clear up any misconceptions about the Piggy/Los altercation - there were no crew in the bus when the alleged hitting took place. Holly refused to comment on the situation and truth be told, the crew really sympathized with Piggy considering Los had in effect, ruined her birthday. Without the cameras present we took her on her word that no fists were thrown on her end...but even if they were, could we really blame her?

Episode Ten
Early on, Holly innocently suggests that they can give each other "ball rubs." Although she is referring to massages, Yes jokes that "Someone has been couped up for awhile!" Dan then announces that Holly is gonna be his "bitch" by the end of the 48 hours.
Holly talks about how much she loves being naked...Veronica is worried about how she'll be able to survive 48 hours without, uh, pleasuring herself...The group then discusses having a masturbation contest, Dan passes saying that the girls will win because they can have multiple, uh, satisfaction.
Amaya says she's going to have a "big ass steak" once the mission is over...David and Teck talk about 'Fame'...David says its hard for RW alums to get into the entertainement industry but that he thinks Teck can 'make it happen.' He says Teck is the only "brother" to come out of the show in a positive light...David reveals that he knew Rebecca as well as Nathan before he got on the show...Teck thinks that BMP honestly didn't know that Ruthie was an alcoholic...David thinks that the RR team will last the 48 hours because sitting and saying nothing is what Los does best.
