As always, the episode starts off with the remaining players waiting to see who won last week's Elimination Ceremony. This week, however, the teams say they don't really care who won, as they liked both teams in the competition. Halfway up the steps, Ankur trips and falls up the stairs, prompting Joe to ask if anyone remembered who was wearing what shoes. Hanging out with the Beauties is really starting to pay off for Joe, in a bizarre shoe fetish way.

Later, down in the library, Host Mike Richards tells the teams that this week they'll have to learn to communicate with the other side on a different level. He also tells the Beauties there's a special note in their study materials they should read in private. Fortunately, TVgasm's crack investigative staff has obtained a copy of the note, which you can see here. Actually, the note just tells the Beauties they have to ask a Geek who is not their partner on a date. I wonder who gets dibs on Host Mike Richards?

Although she's nervous, Jennipher asks Josh to if he'd like to go on a date with her. Josh says the fact that she was nervous asking him out showed him that women could be as nervous about asking someone out as a man is. Evidently, it never dawns on poor Josh that she's only nervous because she's asking him out. While he tells her he's really excited about going on a date, as soon as she leaves, he says he feels sick. Yeah, who's nervous now, Josh? Who's nervous now?

Brittany asks Ankur to be her date, and Ankur is his usual humble self. "I've never asked someone on a date, and I've never been asked on a date," he says. "But I think I can hold an hour long conversation about shoes if I have to." Big talk coming from a guy who only owns three pair of shoes, one of which he describes as a "sneaker-colored pair of sneakers."
