The next morning, Ramona calls them all over to the pier and announces that the scores don't really matter because today's challenge is worth seventy-five points. She reminds them that the winning team gets $20,000. Each team has to pick its best female and male water-skiiers. Julie claims that she has skiied "three or four times." In an interview, Kameelah explains that her team picked Jamie and Julie.

Over on the RR side, Emily tells Christian that he is "a stud on [the] island, a stud on the water," and he hugs her. In an interview, Laterrian explains that Emily and Christian will represent their team. Ramona tells them that they will get some training runs.

Emily, Jamie, and Christian all appear to be doing well behind the boat. Julie says she's "a complete virgin to wakeboarding." She falls many times. Christian boards by her and waves. Hee! In an interview, Emily explains that they were playing some mind games. Julie falls some more. And some more. She tries to use water-skis instead of the wakeboard, but doesn't have much luck with that either. She explains that she had very little confidence. Gee, do you think Julie will make a miraculous comeback and win the mission for her team? It's hard to say. Emily expresses confidence to her team while Jamie downplays Julie's struggles to his own. In an interview, Emily says that Jamie and Julie "seemed a little nervous." Rebecca tells Julie that she's willing to take over.
