Land of the Host

Synopsis
Day two on the Studio Drama film lot kicks off with the fourteen castmates eating breakfast in the craft services tent. As Beth and DJ bond, Trent remains jealous of Duncan and Gwen's budding friendship, believing that the delinquent poses a threat to his relationship with Gwen. Meanwhile, Heather is shut down completely by former allies Beth and Lindsay, who have now grown attached to Justin, and instead attempts to befriend the socially awkward Harold with hopes of forming an alliance with him.

Chris then enters the craft services tent to announce the day's challenge, based off the prehistoric movie genre. He then leads the castmates to a giant outdoor prehistoric film set and forces them to dress in loincloths as part of the challenge. Subsequently, he chooses pairs from each team to duel against each other atop pillars over a tar pit, with bones being used as weapons.

During the challenge, Lindsay, Gwen, Heather, Justin, Trent, and DJ all score points for their team by knocking their respective opponents into the tar pit. Meanwhile, Lindsay is still unable to remember Geoff, Gwen becomes frustrated with Trent's jealousy, and Trent gives Duncan a concussion by hitting him in the head with a bone. Finally, with the Killer Grips in the lead, Chris announces that the last pair to duel is Beth and Noah; he adds that, if Noah manages to defeat Beth, the Screaming Gaffers will automatically win the challenge.

Ultimately, both castmates lose their balance and fall into the pit at the exact same time, resulting in a tied score. As a result, the Killer Grips win the challenge and the Screaming Gaffers are sent to the season's first awards ceremony, where they cast their votes with electronic voting devices. Chris appears wearing a blue tuxedo and tosses chocolate Gilded Chris awards to everyone but Gwen and Katie, the bottom two.

Following a brief pause, Chris hands the final Gilded Chris to Gwen, and Katie is voted off. At the Walk of Shame, Katie is pushed into the Lame-o-sine, and Noah is forced out of the competition because Chris believes that he will affect the season's "heightened level of drama" now that he knows of Justin's true malevolent nature. Once the Lame-o-sine drives off the film lot with the season's first two eliminated castmates, Chris wraps up the episode.
