Episode 8 starts out w/ the Real World team planning a joke on the Road Rules team. They're angry, because they keep losing the missions, therefore, losing money. The idea of the joke is to create a fake mission, and make the Road Rules team go out of their way to do it, while the RW team goes and has fun in the nightlife of Miami. This whole scheme was, surprisingly, Kat's idea. Then, there are scenes of the Road Rules girls cleaning the bus. Los sits on the couch. When Veronica asks Los to do some E*Trade research, he laughs. When Veronica asks him to smell a rose, he simply says, "It's dead.", rudely. When Piggy asks him if he knows the time, he says, "Yep.", when she asks him if he can share it w/ her, he says, "Yep." The whole RR cast is obviously annoyed w/ Los' obnoxious behavior. Then, the RR team shares their problems w/ Los and Holly, Piggy, & Dan go out to lunch. While there, they discuss Los' problems w/ manners.

Then, they cut to the RW team. Since, Mike has contacts w/ Oceandrive Magazine, they're gonna help the RW team create this fake mission. They have computers that can create the stationery that looks exactly like the mission papers, that the RR/RW teams receive. When they're done typing the mission up, someone from Oceandrive goes to the RR team's hotel room, and hands the mission to Piggy, the only one there. It says that there are 10 situations listed, and they have to do 6 of them. The situations listed are:

1. Obtain a menu from every restaurant at Oceandrive. 2. Discover the secrets of the mustard at Joe's Stonecrab Restaurant. 3. Give somebody a pedicure, over 60. 4. Find a fashion victim, that you can convince to let you do a full beauty make-over on. 5. Have 2 people, male and female, do 10 naked jumping jacks. 6. Find Ricky Martin's restaurant, and get his special "Reserved" sign. 7. Have someone bury 3 cast members up to their neck in sand.

And a couple others, not mentioned.

The minute they get the mission, they're all angry about it. They're tired and sick of exploiting people. Also, all team members must be present. Yes is on a run, but they have no idea where Los is. They say that they're just going to let the Real World team win this mission. But, Holly says that there's this motive in her that says she can do it, so she gathers the team, after Los gets back, and they decide that they will do the mission. Yes comes back from his run, exhausted, and Veronica informs him of the mission. He sighs. Los photographed 2 people nude for his photo project, so they agree to do 10 jumping jacks for them. After the pictures are taken, they move on to their next situation. While they're out killing themselves, the Real World team goes out, has a couple of drinks, and parties at a club. The RR team calls Joe's Stonecrab Restaurant, and asks for the secret of their mustard. Luckily, the restaurant gives it to them easily. They go to Ricky Marrin's favorite restaurant, get the sign, and take another pciture. Afterwards, they go to the beach, and have strangers bury Holly, Veronica, & Piggy in the sand, up to their necks. In between, there are scenes of the Real World team partying at a club.

The RR team sets off to find a "fashion victim" to makeover. Actually, she didn't look like a "fashion victim". While Veronica's putting make-up on the girl at Sephora, Los suggest drawing red lines all over her face. Veronica got angry at him, for making fun of the girl. She told him he was acting inappropriately, so he got mad. He said she over-reacted, and stormed out of Sephora, saying he wouldn't continue the mission. Holly ran after him, because, you can't complete the mission, unless all cast members are present. He compromises, by saying that, if Veronica comes a couple blocks down, and apologizes, he'll come back. Veronica walks down to where he is, and says she's sorry, but she has no tolerance for his humor. He acts stubborn, and says it doesn't sound like an apology to him. She finally says she's sorry for being impatient w/ him, just so he will go back to the mission. Piggy says that she had alot of guts doing that, and she'd probably smack Los across the face (me, too, Piggy). They apologize to the girl, for keeping her waiting, and finish the makeover. When they're finished, they have one more event to do, then they'll be done w/ the mission. That event is to find a man over 60 yrs. old, and paint his toenails. They get a couple people angry, when asking, but finally find a man who agrees to do it. After they're done, they're exhausted. The Real World team is discussing the payback. Heather B. says to be ready for when they strike back, but gives them credit for putting everything aside, and always getting their jobs done. What I'm wondering right now is, "What happened to the horns?".

It's the next day, and The Real World's team goes onto the Road Rulers' bus. They give Veronica a shoebox, get their camcorders ready, and ask her to open it. Inside is a note and a bunch of candies. Veronica reads the note. It basically says that this is their "sweet reward" and they get suckers for being suckers. It also says that the Real World team will buy them all a round of drinks. At first, they don't get it, and say thank you to the RW team. When Mike explains that they did all that hard work for nothing, the RR team can't believe it. Piggy & Holly still thank them, and Dan smiles, but Yes says he'll beat their asses. Veronica is the most angry, because this mission caused a big fight w/ Los that didn't need to happen. The RR team is angry and planning their revenge.

Next week: bathing suits and a fantasy festival. Too good to be true?
