Elise: Hey everyone, I'm Elise and I am 14! I am ready to begin the journey of a lifetime, and I know my friendly attitude can bring me far!

JD: Along with victory comes defeat. Many contestants will learn that you truly can't win them all.

Phil: Whats up? I'm Phil and I'm 14, thats what's up.

Julia: Hi I'm Julia, I'm 15, and Im representin' New York!

Zachary: Hey I'm Zachary and I'm 14.

Tiffany: Hey there! I'm 15 and my name is Tiff!

Eli: Hello, I'm Eli and I am 15. There is no doubt in my mind that I can win this. I got the guns, I got the brains, all I need is the right partner!

JD: The winners though, will get to go on the trip of a life time! As well as earning the title of an Endurance Champion!

Reba: Hey, hi, hello! My name is Reba and am 15!

Sophie: Hey it's Sophie! I am 14 and from Nebraska.

Brad: Greetings! I'm Brad and I'm 13 years young!

Lilia: Hiya, I'm Lilia and I am only 13. Many people might find me unthreatening because of my age, but be warned, there is more than what meets the eye!

JD: Whoever can collect and posses all 13 pyramid pieces will become the winners of Endurance!

*All 20 contestants and JD meet on a big rock in the middle of the forest*

JD: Well congratulations, you guys were all selected to be on the show Endurance!

*Everyone claps*

JD: You all know how this game goes, but lets just run it over. You will be paired up in teams of two competing to win all 13 pieces of the game. You will need all 13 traits to be able to win!

Reba (Confessional): 13?!? I don't even think that I have that many fingers! Let me check...

JD: But to get on a team you first have to pass the dreaded right to stay!

*Everyones smile quickly dissapears*

JD: And I'm sorry to tell you, but 6 of you will not be able to stay any longer than today. But if you work hard and communicate, you will have a good chance!

Lilia (Confessional): I am extremely nervous for this right to stay challenge. I think my confidence level just dropped 10 feet.

JD: And one more thing, make sure you make a good first impression. They will either make or break you down the line! That is all I have for you, go check out your huts!

*All 20 contestants walk down a path past the rock*

Julia: Oh my gosh!

Rusty: This is sick!

Brad (Confessional): These huts have very fine craftsmanship! I can't believe we might be able to reside in them![/color]

*The camera pans into the girls room*

Sophie: I LOVE the huts!

Tiffany: I can't believe we are actually here, it is an amazing feeling!

Elise: I feel like I am dreaming!

Mindy: I wish we had the same ones Endurance High Sierras had, now that would be cool!

Eva: Well you should be happy that you have something in the first place!

Mindy: I am Eva, I didn't mean it like that...

Eva: I mean you are on Endurance for Pete sakes! You will never get this type of experience again!

Mindy: Yeah I know I was just...

Eva: You were just being ungrateful. Why are you trying to get everyone upset the first day?

Mindy (Confessional): Oh give me a break. I know to watch out for Eva now. Anything I say she will just ramble on and on and on about. Whatever...

*Reba comes in follwed by Kristi*

Reba: What did I miss ladies?

Kristi: OMG look at this place, it is amazing!

Julia: I know right?

Reba: Yeah, I know right?

Julia: Anyways...

Reba: Yeah anyways, I am so ready for this mission!

Lilia: You seem pretty confident Reba!

Reba: Oh girl I am. I am 120 pounds of pure fury! I can run a mile in under 5 minutes and can bench press 300 pounds!

Kristi (Confessional): Okay I really hope everyone can see through Reba. It is so obvious that she is lying but why not play along with it?[/i]

*Reba comes in during Kristi's confessional*

Reba: Who you talking about girl?

Kristi: Not you!

Reba: Mkay girl, love ya!

Reba (Confessional): Me and Kristi are so tight. I love an honest lady like herself![/i]

*The camera pans to the guys room*

Steve: I am so pumped for this!

Alex: These huts are rockin', I'm really diggin' this place!

Henry: I hope I can stay here longer!

Brad: I couldn't agree with you more Henry. This place is quite exquisite.

Henry: Yeah...

Rusty: Well it should be easy, we all have a fair shot!

Zachary: I'm really nervous about it, but I'm ready to give it my all!

Eli: No sweat at all for me, I know I got this in the bag!

Leo: Easy Eli.

Eli: Haha I can't help it. If anyone should be worried its Jimmy. Do you see how small he is?

Leo: Oh you might be in for a suprise Eli...

*Jimmy and Phil walk in*

Phil: What up what up?

Steve: Come on in guys!

Jimmy: Nice to meet you all!

*The camera pans to a few girls down by the ocean*

Tiffany: Wow, I can't believe Eva and Mindy have been fighting already.

Julia: I swear Eva looks for a fight every where she goes.

Sophie: Hey, has it occured to you guys that only 9 girls were in the huts?

Tiffany: ... what?

Sophie: Yeah! There was only 9 girls! We were missing one!

Julia: Sohpie how would you even realize that?

Sophie: Well let's see, there was 7 of us at first.. and then 2 more came in...

Tiffany: Who is it?

Sophie: I have no clue... that is really wierd though...

*JD is seen walking toward the huts*

JD: Hey everyone, time for your first twist.

Jimmy (Confessional): When I heard JD say we were having a twist I was beyond relieved. Hopefully this twist can help save me from the RTS..

JD: Remember how I said first impressions would make or break you? Well I hope you guys did a good job on this. Because 2 of you will be leaving in 15 minutes without a chance to prove yourself in the right to stay. Both the guys and the girls must vote out one person who they think does not deserve to stay here. You will have 15 minutes to explain your case of why you should stay. After that I will call you all out for when it is time to vote. Good luck with your decisions!

*The camera goes into the girls huts*

Kristi: So does anyone have anything they would like to say?

Eva: Girl, I would LOVE to.

Mindy: Here we go again...

Eva: So your girl Mindy is not who you think she is. She has made it blatenly obvious that she is not grateful to be here.

Mindy: Why are you...

Eva: And I know all of the rest of you actually want to be here!

Mindy: Shut...

Eva: So why not vote off the only one that doesn't?

Mindy: SHUT UP EVA! Why don't we all vote off Eva?!? This girl is crazier than Reba!

Reba: HEY!

Tiffany: All of you stop! I would like to make a case too! How many of you know who THAT is...

*Tiffany points at Anne Marie sitting in the corner of the room*

*Only two girls raise their hand, Kristi and Reba*

Tiffany: This girl hasn't tried to befriend any of us... why should we keep her?

Anne Marie (Confessional): The second Tiffany stood up I knew things weren't going to go well, and how can I stand up to her allience?

Anne Marie: No one tried to talk to me, why should I be all outgoing?

Tiffany: It's the game! You can't just sit back and ignore everyone!

Anne Marie: Some people attempted to talk to me... this makes you no better than anyone else!

*The camera now shows inside of the guys huts*

Leo: So I would like to say a little something about Eli.

Eli (Confessional): I was almost laughing when Eli went up there to talk about me. He doesn't realize how many people I have befriended...

Eli: Go ahead! We would all LOVE to hear about it.

Leo: He is so c0cky. And guess what? There is not a doubt in my mind he is the strongest guy here. Why not vote out the strongest competitor?

Eli: Listen everyone. Leo is the type of person that thinks the game will be a cake walk if you all give in to his "logic." I would be a great ally to anyone he keeps me past today, and I promise.

Alex (Confessional): Both of these guys are making great points. But if all of these people save Eli, how will he be loyal to all of them?

Eli (Confessional): Obviously I can't be loyal to EVERYONE who saves me, but if it keeps me safe, why not lie?

Leo (Confessional): I have no clue how this vote will turn out. I'm hoping for the best expecting the worst!

*JD is shown standing outside both of the huts*

JD: Come on guys, your fifteen minutes is up!

*Everyone comes out and sits down on the logs*

JD: I hope you all have come to a conclusion?

Lilia (Confessional): I know we are all on seperate pages, who knows who is going home?

JD: Well it is time to vote! You can only write down one name, and who ever gets the most votes will not even be able to do the right to stay challenge! Lets begin the voting!

*Each girl is shown walking up one by one to the voting podium*

Anne Marie (Writes down TIFFANY): You have had your way the whole time. It is my turn to have a say in who goes and who stays.

Tiffany (Writes down ANNE MARIE): You had your chance to prove you should stay here, and did nothing. I don't regret this.

Eva (Writes down MINDY): Girl you so fake, you better think before you speak in the future.

*Each guy is shown walking up to the voting podium one by one*

Phil (Hands in his vote): This is definitley going to be a two way split. Should be interesting.

Eli (Writes down LEO): This kid has guts, and that is why he needs to leave the game.

Leo (Writes down ELI): I know my neck is on the line tonight, but you have to risk yourself if you want to win!

JD: Let me go get the votes!

*JD counts up the votes and walks back to the logs*

JD: The first guy and girl eliminated already are...

*Endurance: Santa Barbara logo appears*

*End of Episode: 1*

NEXT TIME ON ENDURANCE: SANTA BARBARA

The guy and girl eliminated will be revealed!

"I never should have trusted her..."

And the right to stay challenge will send four more competitors home!

JD: Keep it coming guys!

"No don't listen to JD! Slower slower slower!"[/color]

Who will make it past these rough eliminations? Find out next time on Endurance: Santa Barbara!

[Cruise meerkat Youssy]

What a terrible twist D: I like Anne Marie! I hope Tiffany goes home.

[Cruise meerkat Youssy]

Terrible twist as in...for them. LOL

[Mister Ham]

LAST TIME ON ENDURANCE: SANTA BARBARA

The 20 Endurance contestants arrived at their location, and reality set it.

Friendships and trust were put to the test.

Who did it pay off for, and which two will be leaving before the Right to Stay mission?

It is time to find out!

*Endurance theme begins*

JD: Let me go get the votes!

Anne Marie (Confessional): Once JD grabbed the votes my heart sped up 100x faster than it already was going. Please say it's not me!

JD: Let me start with the GIRL votes first.

*JD pulls out a vote that reads EVA*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads MINDY*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ANNE MARIE*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads TIFFANY*

JD: Wow, we already have a 4-way tie!

*JD pulls out a vote that reads EVA*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads TIFFANY*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ANNE MARIE*

JD: Eva, Tiffany, and Anne Marie all have two votes! Only 3 remain.

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ANNE MARIE*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads TIFFANY*

JD: Anne Marie and Tiffany both have 3 votes. Whoever recieves this last vote will be heading home.

Tiffany (Confessional): I can not believe I got all of those votes... But if I didn't stand up to save myself, who would?

JD: The first person eliminated from Endurance: Santa Barbara is...

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ANNE MARIE*

JD: Anne Marie. I'm sorry Anne Marie, but you have been voted out. Please say your goodbyes.

Tiffany: Nice try, but it will take a little more than that to get rid of me!

Kristi: Oh please...

Anne Marie (Confessional): I could see it coming from a million miles away. I never should have trusted her, but I didn't even really trust her in the first place. But I tried to make a case for myself and the fact that I got at least two people to understand means a lot.

Kristi (Confessional): I have lost Anne Marie and it really stinks. All that is left is... Reba. I know I will have to work extra hard to go further in this game.

Mindy (Confessional): I can't express how excited I am that I get to compete in the Right to Stay. I never thought I'd actually say that, but I am!

Anne Marie: Bye everyone...

Reba: Bye girl, I still love ya!

Julia: See you later![/color]

*Anne Marie walks away from the group, and vanishes into the forest*

JD: And one more of you will follow. Guys, let us see who you are sacraficing.

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ELI*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ELI*

JD: Eli and Leo have two votes each, but which is going home?

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ELI*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads ELI*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

Alex (Confessional): At one point the votes were tied four a piece. People are seriously thinking about keeping Eli? How stupid can they be?

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

JD: Will it be a tie? Or will Leo be the first guy to leave Endurance: Santa Barbara?

*JD pulls out a vote that reads LEO*

JD: Leo, I am sorry but you have been eliminated.

Leo: Really guys? This is just dissapointing.

Eli (Confessional): When the votes were read, I was still in awe that I was ACTUALLY safe. How did people actually buy what I said?

Brad (Confessional): That choice seemed very illogical. But it wasn't me and right now that is the most important thing!

Leo: Bye guys, best of luck to everyone who tried to save me as well as you Eli... this game is all in your hands.

Leo (Confessional): I still can not believe I am going already. And to not be able to even prove myself physically is what hurts the most.[/i][/color]

*Leo walks away from the group and dissapears into the forest*

JD: Congratulations, you 18 have made it to compete in the right to stay challenge! Which will begin... now!

*The group groans*

Elise (Confessional): Already? We think we are on top of the world, but JD bursts that bubble with the thought of the right to stay challenge.

*The camera shows the 18 competitors and JD walking through the forest to the beach*

JD: The name of your Right to Stay challenge is called "Dead in the Water." You will be running from the ocean to your personal bucket, trying to fill up the bucket using a smaller bucket as quickly as you can. Once your bucket is filled to the very top, a flag will emerge proving you are finished. The last two guys and the last two girls to finish will be eliminated, is that clear?

Jimmy (Confessional): This Right to Stay is perfect for me, I may not be strong, but I know I can at least run!

JD: Guys, you will be going first this time, get lined up!

*The guys all line up and the girls try to relax on the beach*

JD: ON your mark, GET set, GO!

*The guys race down to the water, with Rusty and Eli at the front of the pack*

Tiffany: Come on Eli, you got this boy!

Tiffany (Confessional): I know Eli and I are strong enough to make it through today. I really want him as a partner and I know that even though we are big threats we are the best competitors here.

JD: Keep it coming guys!

Brad: No don't listen to JD! Slower slower slower!

Brad (Confessional): I know I might not make it past this round and it is very important that I step it up.[/color]

*A few minutes pass*

*Eli's flag raises, followed by Rusty's flag*

JD: Eli and Rusty you guys are finished, come on over here!

Rusty: Oh yeah, official Endurance player right here!

*Phil and Henry's flag raise*

JD: 5 guys remain, but only 3 of them will be able to stay in the game, let's go guys!

Zachary (Confessional): I want more than anything to be in the game, but it is so hard to run back and forth without stopping!

Kristi: Don't walk Zach, you have to keep moving!

*Steve's flag raises followed by Jimmy's*

JD: There is only one more spot left, who will get it? Alex, Brad, or Zach?

Alex (Confessional): I fill up my bucket and I realize I only need one more buckets-worth to finish this! But then...[/i]

*Brad's flag raises*

JD: That is it, Brad is the last official Endurance player! Thank you for playing Alex and Zachary, remember that you worked really hard to make it here and deserved it!

Alex (Confessional): I couldn't believe it. I worked really hard though and no one can say I didn't!

Zacahary (Confessional): I wish I could change what happenned but I can't. Running just isn't my thing, and I know I really screwed up my oppurtunity to be here.

*Alex and Zachary leave the area while the remaining eight guys high-five and cheer*

JD: Girls, it is now your turn!

Julia (Confessional): I love running, but I don't want to get too confident, you never know what will happen!

JD: Ready? GO!

*The girls race down to the water*

JD: Guys, who do you see being eliminated?

Phil: Definitely Reba, possibly Eva?

Henry: Oh yeah. Reba doesn't stand a chance!

Reba (Confessionals): These people are crazy! I so stand a chance, didn't I say I could run a mile in 5 minutes! Yo should have SEEN me run once around that track. Wait, it is more than one lap?[/i][/color]

*Julia and Tiffany's flag rise*

JD: Julia and Tiffany are done, 5 spots remain!

Kristi: Come on Reba, we need to finish this together!

Reba: Can't run... need... air...

Kristi: I don't care, you need to get a move on!

Lilia (Confessional): Being the youngest here makes me really nervous in his challenge. I'm not as tall as these girls and I know I don't have the same strength. Determination is the only thing that can push me to the end![/color][/i]

*Elise's flag rises, as does Sophie's*

Elise (Confessional): As soon as Sophie and I finish, we know we are well set for the game. Tiffany and Julia finished as well and all four of us have an allience! Power is so in our hands!

JD: That only leaves three spots for the girls, who wants them?

Kristi: I DO!

*Kristi's flag rises*

Kristi: Come on Reba, you can do this!

Reba: I got this, I got this, I got this!

Kristi (Confessional): Reba doesn't have this. I finished and she was maybe... halfway done. She has some major catching up to do.[/i]

*Lilia's flag rises*

Brad: Nice job Lilia!

Lilia: Thank ya Bradley!

Rusty (Confessional): I can so tell Lilia and Bad want to be partners. But I like Lilia too, and I know we would make a good team too!

JD: There is only one spot left, will it be Eva, Mindy, or Reba? Eva and Mindy are neck and neck!

Lilia: Come on Mindy, you can do this!

Eva (Confessional): I know no one wants me to win, but it just fuels me to keep going! And it really helps knowing I'm going against the ungrateful Mindy![/color][/i]

*Eva's flag raises, only a few seconds before Mindy's does*

JD: That's it! We have our 7 official girls of Endurance!

Kristi: I will miss you Reba!

Lilia: Bye Mindy, I hope the best for you!

Reba (Confessional): It really stinks to go out like this. But I loved every second of it and I know I could've made it all the way if I wasn't stopped. I did amazing and all those girls are lucky that they didn't have to face Hurricane REBA!

Mindy (Confessional): Nothing feels worse tha being cut short, ecspecially because Eva got the last spot.. I had a great time though and made a good relationship with Lilia, so I would say my time on here was a success![/i][/color]

*Reba and Mindy dissapear from the group and only the 14 remaining players and JD are on the beach*

JD: You are all official players of Endurance, be proud of yourselves!

*Everyone claps*

JD: Be ready for tomorrow, you will be playing for the power to get your partner and colors! Make sure you let everyone know who you want, or you might not be happy with who you get! That is enough for today, head back to the huts, enjoy the rest of your night!

Kristi (Confessional): Partners, shmartners. I have no allies, no friends, nothing. Reba and Anne Marie are gone and all I have to depend on is myself. Totally not fair.

Eli (Confessional): Tomorrow should be interesting. I know everyone wants to be partners with me, so it looks like it is all up to me who I choose![/color][/b]

*Endurance: Santa Barbara logo appears*

*End of Episode 2*

NEXT TIME ON ENDURANCE: SANTA BARBARA!

The challenges get tougher!

"Move out of my way!"

The drama gets even bigger!

"Is all you ever do complain?!?"

Anything? -.- It's annoying to write a series no one reads..

[Mister Ham]

LAST TIME ON ENDURANCE: SANTA BARBARA

Anne Marie and Leo were eliminated based off first impressions.

Anne Marie: I could see it from a million mies away.

And in the right to stay two guys and girls also faced elimination.

What is in store for the contestants today?

We will see on Endurance: Santa Barbara!

*Endurance theme*

Phil (Confessional): Today JD said we were going to have the partner mission. But it seems like all the girls want Eli and all the guys want Tiffany... I'm really nervous on how everything will turn out.

*The camera shows everyone talking in the huts*

Sophie: I think we should decide on partners, and make a list like on Endurance 1! Does anyone have any ideas?

Tiffany: Well I really want to be with Eli.

Eli: And I want to be with Tiffany, sorry ladies.

Sophie: Okay, does anyone have any objections?

Kristi (Confessional): I would love to object and say that I want Eli, but I'd rather not stir up even more drama. But I know I have to find a good partner to keep myself around in the game.

Steve: I would be cool with Elise if she doesn't mind?

Elise: That would be awesome Steve!

Sophie: Aright, I would like to be with Phil if that is okay?

Jimmy: I kind of wanted to be Sophie's partner too...

Sophie (Confessional): Oh Jimmy... He seems like a nice guy, but not really partner material.

Phil: I wll definitely be your partner Sophie, hands down.

Sophie: Awesome!

Jimmy (Confessional): So Sophie completely disreguards what I said, whatever...

Eva: I would like Henry!

Henry: Well I...

Julia: As a matter of fact, so would I!

Eva: Well why don't we let Henry decide, he is a big boy!

Henry: I would prefer Julia to be honest... sorry Eva.

Eva (Confessional): Henry said he doesn't want me and I'm not suprised. But I will do anything to get who I want. Don't worry.

Sophie: Does anyone else have anyone they want?

Brad: I would love to be partners with Lilia.

Lilia: I feel the same Bradley!

Rusty (Confessional): Right now I am letting Brad think he has Lilia. Little does he know that I want her too. But I'm going to lay back, let them believe they have who they want.

Sophie: Okay that leaves Eva, Rusty, Kristi, and Jimmy.

Jimmy: I will take Kristi!

Kristi: Yeah that sounds good I guess...

Tiffany: Honestly, is all you ever do complain?!?

Kristi: What are you talking about?

Tiffany: Your acting like the world has ended since Anne Marie and Reba left. You have such an attitude and should be exstatic that you are still here.

Kristi: I know I am, but it isn't fair to me. You have friends and more than likely a strong partner. I have nothing.

Tiffany: Then say something! We aren't going to read your mind...

Kristi: Whatever. Jimmy sounds fine.

Sophie: Okay... so that leaves Rusty and Eva. Are you guys okay with being partners?

Eva: Um... sure...

Rusty: Yeah.

Rusty (Confessional): I definitely need Lilia now. I am NOT being with Eva.[/color][/i]

*Sophie's List is Shown*

Eli and Tiffany
Phil and Sophie
Steve and Elise
Henry and Eva Julia
Brad and Lilia
Jimmy and Kristi
Rusty and Eva

*The 14 players are shown walking to the beach; there are 6 ropes hanging over the water*

JD: Hey everyone! Are you all ready for the partner mission!

All: Yeah!

JD: Well there is a partner mission going on, but it is NOT yours.

Eva: What? That doesn't even make sense!

JD: It will in a minute, come on out guys!

*Leo, Anne Marie, Zachary, Mindy, Alex, and Reba walk out*

Tiffany (Confessional): NO WAY! I can't believe it... You all had your chance, let the deserving people stay.

JD: Here are the six people who want a chance to get back in. And today is their day. See those six ropes out there? You six will have to hang on as long as possible without touching the water. The last guy and girl standing will become the Brown Team. Are you guys ready?

Anne Marie: Oh yeah!

JD: Okay, get out there!

Leo (Confessional): I want to redeem myself so badly! This is exactly what I have been waiting for![/i][/color]

*The six contestants are on a platform in the water, in front of their rope*

JD: Ready?

*The six grab onto their ropes*

JD: Go!

*The platform sinks down into the water*

Kristi: Go Anne Marie! Go Reba!

Tiffany: Go Mandy, you got this!

Eli (Confessional): When I saw Leo out there, all I could think was fall, fall, fall! I do not want to go up against this guy again.

JD: You have all been holding on for 5 minutes! Hang in there!

Reba: Stupid rope! Stop hurting me!

JD: Reba looks like she is having a lot of trouble out there.

Kristi: Mind over matter Reba! Don't let go!

Reba (Confessional): I know I can't give up, but this is so hard![/color][/i]

*Reba falls in the water*

JD: Oh! Reba is out! That only leaves Mindy and Anne Marie for the girls! All three guys are still in!

Alex: I am definitely starting to slip.

Zachary: So am I, hang in there dude.

JD: Both Alex and Zachary look like they are having some trouble out there!

Alex: Good luck Zach.

Zachary: Don't drop dude![/color]

*Alex falls into the water*

JD: Alex falls! Zachary and Leo are left for the guys. Anne Marie and Mindy for the girls.

Eva: Fall Mindy!

Mindy: Be quiet!

Kristi: You got this Anne Marie! Don't give up!

JD: You have all been holding on for 10 minutes! Who can stay on the longest? Anne Marie looks like she is beginning to slip.

Anne Marie: Can't hold on... much longer...

Tiffany: Don't be afraid to fall Anne Marie, you tried your best!

Anne Marie: You can't get rid of me that...

JD: Woah!

*Mindy falls in the water*

JD: Mindy is out, Anne Marie, you are returning to the game!

Anne Marie: *Screams* Looks like you all made a bad mistake!

*Anne Marie drops off the rope, gets out of the water, and walks over to the contestants*

Kristi: I know you could do it! Great job!

Anne Marie (Confessional): I can't believe it, I am back into the game! I think I suprised myself as well as the main allience. If they think I'm that easy to get rid of they better think again!

JD: Leo and Zachary are the only two that are left! Who will be on the Brown Team with Anne Marie?

Leo: I'm slipping...

Zachary: I have been the whole time. You get use to it man.

Leo: If I let you win, will you do me a favor?

Zachary: Anything, dude.

Leo: Don't let Eli run the game. Stand up for the little people.

Zachary: Ehh okay...

Leo: Thanks.[/color]

*Leo drops into the water*

Zachary (Confessional): OH YEAH! I don't even remember what Leo said, but I am back in the game! It feels great!

JD: There we go, Zachary and Anne Marie are the new Brown Team! Congratulations!

Reba (Confessional): I gave this everything I had, I'm just really lucky to make it on the show with all of these people!

Mindy (Confessional): It really stinks coming back and leaving again. I was so close both times, but I can't say I didn't do my best!

Alex (Confessional): Once I saw the challenge I knew I was doomed. I had a great time though, and I'm proud of myself.

Leo (Confessional): So close. I was probably a minute away from staying in the game. But I know Zachary will stay true to the plan, go Brown!

JD: Now are you guys ready for your partner mission?

All: Yeah!

JD: This mission is called "Catch Me!" Two colored balls will be launched. The two that catch them will get to choose the guy and girl for that colored team. You CAN choose yourself. Once you are on a team you can't catch anymore! Is that clear to everyone? Let's get set up.

Eva (Confessional): I know I'm gonna have to put Julia on a different team. I just need to be lucky![/color]

*Two Purple Balls are launched*

Sophie: Move out of my way!

JD: Sophie and Steve caught the balls! Who will be on the Purple team?

*Sophie and Steve whisper to eachother*

Sophie: Eli and Tiffany?

Steve: Sounds good.

JD: Who have you decided?

Sophie: Eli and Tiffany.

Tiffany: Thank you guys so much!

Eli (Confessional): I can't believe it! These people are actually dumb enough to put the two strongest people on a team! Thanks guys![/i]

JD: Ready for the next color?[/b]

*Two Red Balls are launched*

JD: Looks like Rusty and Phil grabbed them! Who will be on Red?

Phil: Brad

Rusty: And Julia!

Lilia: What?

Brad: WHAT?

Phil: No way dude, not cool.

JD: Brad and Julia, you are Red! Please take a seat next to Purple!

Julia (Confessional): Really Rusty? You better watch your back now, you did not just split up me and Henry, but also Brad and Lilia. You just put a HUGE target on your back.

Brad: Don't let Rusty catch it! He is trying to mess up the list![/color]

*Two Gray balls are launched*

JD: It looks like Jimmy and Elise caught them!

Jimmy (Whispering): Do you want to be on Gray?

Elise (Whispering): Yes please, with Steve!

JD: What did you guys decide?

Elise: Myself and...

Jimmy: Steve!

JD: Steve and Elise are on Gray and are also out of the challenge!

Steve: Thanks Jimmy, good luck getting your partner![/color]

*Two Green balls are launched*

JD: Henry and Kristi have the balls! Who will be on Green?

Henry: Phil

Kristi: And Sophie!

JD: Phil and Sophie are the Green Team! Be ready for the next ball!

Kristi (Confessional): As much as I would have liked to say myself instead of Sophie, I am hoping it proves to everyone I can be trusted. Maybe I can make up for being so miserable today.[/i][/color]

*Two Yellow balls are launched*

JD: Kristi and Rusty have caught the balls! Who will be on Yellow?

Rusty (Whispering): If you give me Lilia, I will never send you to temple or give you the samahdi.

Kristi (Whispering): You promise? I will if you keep your side of the deal.[/i]

Rusty (Whispering): Promise.

JD: What is your decision?

Rusty: Myself and Miss Lilia.

JD: Rusty and Lilia are Yellow! Only Blue and Orange remain!

Lilia (Confessional): I am beyond angry right now. Not only did I not get Bradley, but I am stuck with the guy everyone now hates; Rusty.

Henry (Confessional): The only two girls left are Eva and Kristi, the two most unlikeable girls here. I wish things were going better, but I have to keep going no matter what.[/b][/i][/color]

*Two Orange balls are launched*

JD: Henry and Eva snagged them! Who will be on Orange, and who will be on Blue?

Henry: Eva, do you want to be partners?

Eva: Um, duh!

Henry: We will take Orange, Kristi and Jimmy can have Blue.

Henry (Confessional): I figured Eva is a better bet than Kristi because she hasn't stirred any conflict up with any of the remaining players. I hope I made the right decision...

JD: Okay, we have the eight official teams of Endurance! And before I let you guys go back to the huts, let me give you your pieces!

Julia (Confessional): By now all I want to do is talk to my friends but JD won't let us leave! I could care less about pieces right about now...

JD: Red Team... you guys will get the Karma piece. Even though you might feel betrayed, remember that what goes around comes around!
Orange Team... you were the only two who caught a ball and both chose to be on the same team. You get the Knowledge piece for your selection.
Yellow Team... you both seem to be experiencing tension. You will need the Teamwork piece to work through your differences with eachother.
Green Team... you both seem happy to be on eachothers teams. Your trust in other teams payed off for you, so you get the Trust piece!
Blue Team... you were very competitive n the mission which shows that you have a lot heart! You will be recieving the Heart piece.
Purple Team... from the start you two took charge and were pretty vocal during the voting elimination. You will be recieving the Leadership piece!
Gray Team... Elise you knew who you wanted as a partner and were able to ask for help. This showed a lot of courage, so you will have the Courage piece!
Brown Team... you both were eliminated very early but now have proved you should stay in the game. Your drive in the game has earned you the Perseverance piece!
Okay, everyone now has their piece! Be ready because your first Endurance mission is tomorrow!
Get to talk with your partner, see you all tomorrow!

Anne Marie (Confessional): I feel pretty good coming back in the game. Some other people have put targets on their own back and maybe it will keep me safe for a few more rounds!

Brad (Confessional): Right now I am feeling really betrayed, but I know I can't change it now. Tomorrow is a new day, and Julia might turn out to be a really good partner![/i][/color]
