The next morning at breakfast, Sean gets a message regarding the next competition. He reads that they are supposed to wear uniforms, sandals, and sunblock. Theo tells someone that they are going to finish "one, two, three." In an interview, Emily and Timmy say that they were in second place overall, and now they are in sixth. They laugh about it, though. Timmy is wearing a nametag, which makes me thinks that this interview was actually filmed before or during next week's competition. Timmy jokes with Emily that he's just happy to be there, and he's going to get a ribbon that says, "Participant Award." In an interview, Emily says that they haven't won a prize yet, but they have nothing to lose at this point, so "going big is the only option." As opposed to all of those other missions, where they weren't really trying.
Coral asks Elka, who is busy putting on makeup, to go and sit in the hot sun and sweat, if she wants to beat Road Rules today. Coral thinks that they should win Mike a birthday gift. In an interview that was apparently conducted in an echo chamber, Mike says that he's hoping that his birthday will start off "a new thing for Coral and [him]" where they will actually start winning competitions.
The contestants arrive on the beach and see what looks like three cars, each covered by a red tarp, and a dry bar set up on the side. In an interview, Timmy says that they saw the bar set up, and some lounge chairs, and wondered if they were going to be waiters or play volleyball, and that they didn't know what to expect. Mark welcomes them and tells them that the mission today is called "Hands-On Saturn." They don't even try to pretend like Eric has anything to do with the show anymore; he doesn't even get to hold the clipboard this week. He just gets to say, "Hey, Mark. Let's reveal the sculpture." It still sounds like he's reading it from a cue card. He's so terrible.
Eric and Mark pull one of the tarps off to reveal an ice sculpture of a car. Theo yells out, "It's a Saturn!" and then accepts his product-placement payment. In an interview, Timmy says that this is the strangest competition he's ever been involved with.
