The Woodie Crawl
Campus Crawl begins with the 6 cast members getting picked up on a yellow school bus somewhere in the backwoods of North Carolina. We quickly meet everyone and find out that Darrell likes to box, Rachel thinks that she's been put in some kind of fraternity/sorority House, Eric thinks Kendal is hot, Kendal likes to wear a furry coat, Sarah doesn't like girls and Shane 'likes the girls but really likes the guys.'
The gang's first mission is called the Polar Plunge. They must dive into nearly freezing water to recover the keys that will open the Woodie. The guys all get down to their skivvies and Sarah and Kendal take off their shirts and the crowd around them delights in their nakedness. Shane doesn't pay attention to their instructions and jumps in the pond early dragging just about everyone else in and they all swim frantically to get the keys.

Here Piggy Piggy
Sarah feels like she is the weak link in the group. The rest of the team are physically active. They jog in the mornings, do exercising together and have already started to form bonds and friendships. Sarah isn't ready yet to make that commitment. She's not a sporting fool. Her relationship with her family has made her not trustworthy of people. When the group confronts her about not making the effort to be a part of the group, she breaks down and explains it all to them, hoping that they will understand.
Meanwhile, Eric and Kendal aren't a couple but they sure act like it. When Kendal talks about calling her ex-boyfriend, Eric is noticeably upset. Eric continues to flirt with her but Kendal is putting up a wall even though its obvious to everyone that she is attracted to him. She claims she's just not mentally ready for a relationship with Eric right now but when Eric flirts with other girls, Kendal is jealous.

Rollin Rollin
So you know that there's something going on with Kendal and Eric. Eric 'wants Kendal's nuts,' as Sarah so delicately put it, but Kendal's not so sure about Eric. He's growing on her, but he's kind of a dork and she doesn't really know how she wants to deal with it. What you probably didn't know, though, is that there's also something going on with Darrell and Rachel. Rachel, who has a girlfriend at home, admits that she considers herself 'a straight woman who has a girlfriend.' As time passes on this trip, she finds herself getting closer and closer to Darrell. They cuddle at night, they lay over and around each other, and they flirt. They flirt probably even more than Eric and Kendal do.

Marching to Sorrow
The Road Rules Team finds out that they will be reporting to the Citadel, the military college of South Carolina. Rachel and Eric are psyched about the mission. They have been dreaming of going to the Citadel, and now they have the chance to prove that they have what it takes to make it at one of the toughest military academies in the world. Being thrust into a military experience reminds Kendal of her father who was in the army. Meanwhile, Sarah is noticeably not as ecstatic as the rest of the team and Shane, who spent time in ROTC in the past thinks that no one is prepared for what's about to happen.
On their way to the campus, Kendal explains to Eric the significance of the ring she wears. Kendal reveals that after her parents divorced, her father committed suicide and her mom gave her the ring as a memory of her father.

Rappin to Win
The Road Rulers roll onto the Clark-Atlanta campus to find out that not only will they once again be competing for the elusive $6,000, but that they will also be competing against another team. Once again, MTV.com has fielded a group of six whose soul mission is to bring down the Roadies. There's no love in this game as the de facto leader of the Dot-commers, Sam, asks the RR squad if they are ready to lose.
The mission itself is a step competition being hosted by hip-hop's dynamic duo, Outkast. Each team has to come up with a step routine that will be judged by members of the CAU Greek organizations. Shane isn't taking the mission seriously and is constantly messing up while they go through the grueling practices. It's perhaps not the best time for him to start taking things lightly, as he has found himself in Sarah's old position as the outsider of the group. Shane is uncomfortable with the coupling up that has gone on in the RV and is maybe taking it out on the others a bit, making

Slaps and Failure
Having squeaked past the Dot-commers in Atlanta, the Road Rulers seem poised to become a complete team, with everyone a full-fledged member and no one fearing being voted out. Shane continues to go big for the team, and Sarah is feeling much more comfortable with everyone and her status in the group. As they enter Alabama for their next mission, they are all having fun... until Shane slaps Darrell. It was in fun as they all joked around, prank-calling Shane's friends, but Darrell is not cool with having someone hit him in the face. He leaves the RV rather than doing something he will regret later. When the two are paired together in the balancing challenge, the tensions mount - especially when Shane teases like he's going to grab Darrell's behind. But by the end of the mission, Shane and Darrell have worked through their differences and are friends once again.

Alligators, Bugs, and Snakes Oh My!!!
As the Road Rulers continue making their way across the country, they are finding that assumptions they made early on aren't the realities of the day. Sarah, once the outcast of the group, is now bonding strongly with Kendal. Kendal doesn't want to see Sarah go should they lose another challenge and Sarah is shocked to find that the 'sorority girl' cares about her. Rachel, meanwhile, is realizing that maybe she isn't over her girlfriend at home. While its been nice cuddling with Darrell and having someone to lean on, her heart is still in Florida.
But, the team doesn't have time to process the changes that are happening - they have a hell night to go through. They enter Tulane University and are greeted by James from Road Rules Maximum Velocity Tour. He informs them that in order to join the Fraternal Order of Road Rules they must complete challenges similar to ones that past casts have gone through. It includes playing with snakes, alligators and bugs.

The Naked Truth
The gang has their second mission in New Orleans, and they have to get naked! The six must remove all of their clothing and pose for 15 minutes while an art class sketches them. No one has much of a problem with it - except for Eric, whose conservative ideas start to creep in. He is uncomfortable with nudity, uncomfortable with showering with friends, and uncomfortable with Kendal's willingness to kiss other people on the streets of Louisiana.
After the team easily completes the mission, they go out for a night on the town and have a great night of drunken revelry - just like you're supposed to do when you're on Bourbon Street. Kendal has a great time kissing girls and giving up pieces of clothing in exchange for beads while she's out there. Eric is upset by this behavior and shuts Kendal out - hurting her feelings in the process. After a few days of them ignoring each other, Eric realizes that he still cares about her and they make up.

Dean Jumping
The gang rolls into Texas for the Dean's List Bungee. They have to find pairs of people to jump with them that have something in common (like a librarian and a student with overdue library books...get it? Good!). It proves more difficult than it seems as they have trouble finding a physics professor to jump with Sarah. Which is probably the worst thing to happen as Sarah is gung ho about this mission. She wants to go ""balls to the wall"" on her bungee. Eventually she finds a physics prof to join in and give us an excellent explanation of gravitational force and kinetic energy that might have been about bungee jumping or might have been his recipe for meatloaf. Does anybody know anything about Physics? So the team completes the mission and wins more prize money but they are informed that they can win some trip money if they complete a mini-mission. Unable to find a dean to jump with them, they go with an athletics coach to get the lesser cash award.

Surfing to Goodbye (2)
The group remains deadlocked as they decide whether or not to vote someone off or give up their prizes. Kendal makes a pitch to keep the group together but once its clarified that if they remain in a tie one person will be removed randomly, Rachel decides to change her vote. They quickly decide that Sarah will be the one to go and she starts to pack. Shane and Eric leave the RV while Rachel and Kendal agonize over what's happened. Sarah tells Rachel she understands even though its not what she would've done and comforts Kendal who, surprisingly, has become her biggest supporter and closest friend. They finally say goodbye to Sarah but her departure has left trouble in its wake.
Eric's stern stance on sending Sarah home has Kendal rethinking how she feels about him. She expected more from him and she is choosing to shut him off while she figures out how she feels. Rachel feels caught in the middle of a bad soap opera as the two both want to take a break from each other

Organs Anyone?
As the Road Rulers roll into the University of Texas - El Paso (UTEP), they find that they may have traded away their weakest member for someone cut from the same cloth. Raquel isn't rough and tumble like Rachel and she doesn't seem to have the surprising competitiveness of Kendal. She's all girl and no grrrl and she likes it that way. Kendal does like that there is a little more estrogen on the trip, Eric seems blinded by her cuteness, yet Raquel's not exactly the wonder woman that Shane, Darrell and Rachel were hoping for. She washes dishes, disinfects the RV and doesn't want to do anything gross.
So, of course, her first mission with the team is do what is probably the grossest Road Rules event to date. In the Cattle Cook Off, they have to prepare uncommonly eaten parts of a cow and then eat what they've made. Cow brains, Cow testicles, Cow penis anyone? The girls choose to cook and pull together what is a relatively appetizing looking meal of tacos and pasta featuring the cow

Sex Ed Gross Style
Rachel feels like her breaking up with Amy before the trip was a bad decision. Her quick relationship with Darrell has only served to prove that she's in love with Amy. She's really hurt that Amy is dating a man and is enjoying that they can be 'out' in public about their involvement. With Amy coming to visit soon, she is hoping that she can convince her that they need to be together.
Meanwhile, The team heads to the University of Arizona where they have to take a ""Sex Quiz"". Darrell is confident that he will do well because he is the self-professed ""King of Sex"" and he knows so much more than everyone else. The reality is that while he may have done the deed a lot more than others, he doesn't know that much about it. He has to spin the wheel of gross stuff 3 times and gets to spread skunk poo over his face, hold scorpions in his hands and eat maggot caviar. But, despite his lack of sex smarts, he completes every challenge and the team beats the mission earning 6,000 dollars.

Blindfolded Around the World
As the team heads into their final mission, the group has splintered. Kendal is still depending on Eric despite the fact that they aren't together anymore and their relationship is driving Rachel crazy. She decides to separate herself from Kendal instead of having to deal with the both of them. When Kendal asks Rachel if she's done anything wrong, the two have a heart to heart and agree to rekindle their friendship.
The final mission involves blindfolds, the RV suspended in the air, a maze and trust. With Darrell as their guide, the road rulers must make it through a suspended obstacle course while blindfolded. With only a few minor stumbles, everyone makes it through except for Shane who can't seem to make it across the balance beam. After several tries, he finally succeeds and the team wins their handsome reward--a trip around the world!
