Hello, My Name Is...
As Road Rules gears up for a second cross-country adventure, an all-new cast gathers in Key West Florida, ready to begin their trek: Tim, from Pittsburgh, PA; Emily, from Flora, IL; Christian, from Norway; Effie from Israel; and Devin, from Cleveland Heights, OH. On a sun drenched morning, they meet at the southernmost point of the United States and introduce themselves. No sooner have they learned each others' names than a sportscar races toward them and screeches to a stop. The new Road Rulers are shocked to see that the driver and passenger are Mark and Kit, the happy loving couple from last season. The former Road Rulers pass the baton by handing Emily the keys to the Winnie and explaining that they have to find their vehicle and they don't have much time. As the sportscar screeches off, the new Road Rules team grabs their gear and heads off to look for the Winnie, which they find a few blocks away. Along with a treasure-trove of clothes and equipment, the group finds an audio cass

Your Mission Is...
Last week, in the first episode of the new season of Road Rules, we left the cast tagging sharks on Bimini, a small island off the coast of Miami. Having successfully completed their first mission, the gang decides that it's time for some R&R in the bars of North Bimini. Christian, however, has found out about some interesting local culture. He explains that the bar they'll be going to has a tradition that non-locals are expected to leave their underwear behind, hanging somewhere in the bar. The rest of the Road Rules crew seem a bit skeptical, but when they get to the bar, they find it's true: underwear is plastered everywhere. After spending a considerable chunk of their group fund on drinks and toasting Devin's first-ever shot of tequila, it's time to shed some underwear. Christian, Effie and Emily have ""cheated"" by stuffing some extra underpants in their pockets. Emily and Effie tack their panties to a wall and Christian does the same, saying good-bye to his favorite pair of Mickey
