The season finale begins with three teams but, in a surprising twist, the team that fares the worst in a pop quiz is sent home immediately. The two teams that know their partners best will continue to compete for $250,000 and a chance at becoming more than just a beauty and a geek. Jaws drop when the eliminated contestants return to the mansion for one final night and the claws come out during a blow-out fight over one geek's affection. Host Mike Richards reveals that there is nothing the final two teams can do to prepare for the final challenge.
The producing team of Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg recruited a new group of eight women who are academically impaired and eight men who are brilliant but socially challenged. The second installment will remain true to the series' first season format, pairing up couples for a chance to win a $250,000 grand prize.
This time, however, each mismatched pair competes in brand new activities designed to test intellect, fashion savvy and social skills. The guys are assigned to makeover a room, while the girls do their best to assemble a computer. There's a karaoke session for the men, and a political debate for the ladies. The girls also do a makeover on the guys, then let them test out their new looks during a session of speed-dating. Finally, the whole group travels to Las Vegas for a highly unusual game of strip-poker.
During these competitions, the geek tries to pass his brains on to the beauty, while the beauty tries to turn the geek into a hottie.
