The Challenge

Hit the beaches of Brazil for the newest Real World / Road Rules Challenge. It's every man or woman for themself. New rules. New games. New battle. Let the Duel begin!

Get ready for the first female Duel. It's one that you won't soon forget!

Beth and Tina face-off, and after having thrown a punch that cut Beth, Tina is sent packing. Casey has the decision of choosing between Kenny and Tyler. When Tyler learns he'll be entering The Duel, he makes bold choice of calling out Derrick.

Aneesa feels the pain when she realizes that she cannot trust anyone in this game. A violent roller derby proves to be one of the toughest challenges in history - with one of the greatest prizes in Challenge history.

The guys face against the guys, and the girls face off against one another in "Push Over", where the last man standing wins safety. Beth is irritated by the "Drama Mafia" and finds an ally in Aneesa. A romance between Beth and Nehemiah raises eyebrows.

Sparks fly between CT and Diem. In a height-related challenge, Casey faces her fears about jumping over large bodies of water - and loses. The secret alliance of Aneesa, Beth, Casey, Nehemiah, Svetlana, and Wes is exposed.

CT and Diem continue their romance. Beth and Nehemiah continue their showmance as well - but things get dicey when Aneesa botches the challenge for Nehemiah - and he ends up facing off against Eric in the Duel.

The once symbiotic alliance between Beth and Svetlana is severed when Brad accuses them both of being back-stabbers and pot-stirrers. Two fresh faces win the initial challenge - and a fierce competition in the Duel brings about a surprise ending.

It's Diem's birthday and the cast celebrates. When the choosing begins for the male Duel, Wes bravely steps into the fray - and chooses Derrick for one of the most exciting Duels in the history of the Challenges.

Robin decides to question everything about Aneesa's identity, her race and sexual orientation. CT pulls out a win until it's revealed that he hasn't followed the instructions, giving the win to Evan.

Brad and Eric discuss strategy while Evan and Wes hope to get Eric to take CT out of the competition. The Stacking Stairs challenge almost takes a turn, but some winners pull out another big win. Diem and CT take their relationship to another level.

CT and Diem continue their love fest, and the girls realize that Jodi is their strongest competitor. Svet and Aneesa try to stay to the finals. Jodi and Evan emerge victorious - and Svetlana decides to take on Kina to prove that she wants to win.

The guys face their second to last Duel challenge, and the alliance of Evan and Wes comes to the surface. An incredibly challenging mission - Sunken Treasure - disqualifies all but one of the teams, leading to an incredibly tense Duel challenge.

The girls are all anxious as they acknowledge that one of them would be going home. Diem works with C.T. on her strategy for The Duel. After Aneesa promises not to vote for Diem, she goes back on her word, surprising everyone - especially Diem.

Some serious alliances are tested in the women's Duel while C.T. and Wes have it out when they disagree on who the rightful winner is of the men's Duel.

The final four meet for their last mission - and the largest cash prize in Challenge history.

20 cast members live in a palace on a beach overlooking the jungles of South America and compete in 16 different challenges with the ultimate winners taking home a purse of $300,000.
