Handsome Reward

Aired: Wednesday May 9, 2007

The whole cast arrives together in 'The Pit' wondering why they all have been called and not just Adam and Tori. Drew announces that it was discovered that a major Road Rules rule was violated and David is being disqualified from the game for leaking information to outsiders before the show official airs. The cast in shock is then told that Adam will not have to battle it out instead Dan and Shane will battle it out for David's spot. Unfornately that means Tori still has to fight for he spot and the viewers have shockingly choosen Kristen to go into 'The Pit'. Drew announces the fame is "Step It Up" where they all must stand on a pole for 4 minutes and then step up to a taller pole. Which ever guy and girl who can stand the longest will get the place on the RV. Kristen is the first to fall securing Tori's place on the RV. Meanwhile Shane topples when stepping it up sending Dan back to the RV. Tori is excited to have Dan back on the RV where they head to their next mission- "Drive By". A 28 foot bridge has been connected between two semi trucks that will travel down the road in excess of 50 miles per hour. The goal is to carry large cardboard boxes across the bridge and into the other trailer in the 3 mile road. Drew also lays a bomb on the Roadies telling them there will be one more final pit where one girl and one guy will have to go to battle. The Pit Crew made up of Veronica, Kristen, Ivory, Monte, Shane and Ask.com winner Mike go first and Shane easily gets his box across but Angel struggles to stand in the strong wind. She later drops her box and runs across. The Pit crew is able to get two more boxes in before the 3 mile limit. The roadies are next and Adam and Derek make it across easily but Dan struggles to cross. As the girls wait behind Dan, the wind rips the boxes out of their hands leaving it up to Dan to get that third box across which he doesn't. The Pit Crew wins $20,000 to split inbetween them. The Roadies must now do the hard task of deciding what two roadies will go into the final pit. Kina volunteers since Susie and Tori both have gone in lately. The rest of the roadies split their votes between Derek and Dan leaving Kina to pick Dan. They arrive at the Pit where they both get to pick a name of the pit crew they must compete against out of a hat. Kina picks Angel and Dan picks Monte. The pit battle is "Code Breaker" where they must transfer a table of letters to another and the find four words that make the saying "Road Rules Viewers Revenge". Monte finds it first getting himself a spot on the RV for the first and best time to do so. Kina in a close finish gets the words before Angel securing her spot. Adam, Kina, Susie, Tori, Derek and Monte all climb into the RV to go get their handsome reward which is a Mazda 3 and $13,333 each in mission won money. We end with clips from the season and everyone happy for the adventure.
