Beauty and the Geek Australia

"Tonight in Australia’s favourite social experiment, the Beauties and Geeks find themselves marooned on a deserted island with zero creature comforts. Will the panic-stricken Beauties cope? The Beauties also must select their Geek partners for the crazy challenges ahead. The Geeks will have to locate their inner warrior to perform a traditional Fijian warrior war dance. Not only will they be out to impress their Beauty, but a Fijian chief will select the Geek who shows the most masculinity and originality. The Beauties will be tested on their English skills when they must correctly spell words relating to their island life. There is a cruel twist to this not so traditional spelling bee though, if the Beauties misspell their words their Geeks’ oversized underpants are filled with large, live crabs.And what will happen when one of the Geeks receives a surprise package with explosive consequences for everyone on the island?The winning teams will gain immunity and each nominate a team to go into the elimination room.

The Geeks will be forced outside their comfort zone when let loose in a holiday resort’s swimming pool area packed with bikini clad tourists. Can they strike up an entire conversation with a poolside stranger whilst their Beauty watches on from a viewing room? The Geek who sustains the smoothest, most engaging conversation for the longest time wins. The Beauties will be confronted with their two biggest fears this week, maths and creepy crawlies, when they participate in a bath tub maths challenge. To win, the Beauty must get the most maths questions correct whilst residing in a bathtub teaming with slippery, slimy sea creatures. There’s a storm brewing in paradise when Alex must send home one of his Beauties. And which Geek receives his very first kiss? The winning teams will gain immunity and each nominates a team to go into to the elimination room.

The Beauties head back to the classroom as a year five substitute teacher at a local school. Can they talk their way through topics such as the Big Bang Theory and evolution when they teach a classroom full of students about geography, or science? Not only will they have to impress their Geek, but it is the students who will select the teacher who gave the most educational and fun class. And the Geeks get up close and personal with a half-naked lady when they put to practise their newly acquired skills as a professional masseur. But will their scantily dressed client be evaluating their nifty kneading skills? A red herring is thrown into the mix, keeping the Geeks on their toes. Zac embarks upon his first ever romance and the Geeks and Beauties celebrate Ntula’s 19th birthday with a wild dress up party. But the biggest shock of all is a surprise twist, which will throw the nomination process on its head and leave the Beauties and Geeks quaking in their sandals and stilettoes.

"What causes one of the Geeks to burst into tears after catching a glimpse of himself for the first time post make-over? The Beauties must study up on all things international to impress a panel of genuine government leaders when they deliver a five-minute presentation about their adopted country. The Beauty who is the most convincing and culturally sensitive wins. The Geeks will be thrust into the limelight as the entertainment for a real life Hen’s night. Can the Geeks ditch their dodgy dance moves to perform a super sexy stripper routine and set the night on fire? And what will happen with Matthew finally confesses his feelings for Ntula? The winning teams will gain immunity and each nominate a team to go into the elimination room.

Our Geeks try to get inside their Beauties' heads when they are tested on how much they know about their partners. Then the Beauties demonstrate their way with animals as they attempt to educate a group of zoology students. James announces a surprise is lying in wait on the beach, where, buried in the sand, are the five eliminated couples. It turns out the winners of this week's challenges will not be nominating a couple for elimination, instead, they will be giving a couple the chance to return to the competition. But first, it's makeover time for the eliminated Geeks as Peter, Michael and Nathan,receive a style update at the hands of their Beauty.

Now that our Geeks have been transformed, it's time for them to try out their new looks on the opposite sex in a round of blind dates. But it's speed dating with a twist when the Beauties must hit the streets of Fiji to select a potential partner for their Geek. The food theme continues when the Beauties are given a date with destiny. Each Beauty who correctly identifies her historical companion must swallow an exotic morsel.

It's the Beauty And The Geek Grand Finale and our four remaining couples must battle it out in a series of challenges designed to test them mentally, physically, and emotionally. First up is a muddy assault course, which must be completed during a tropical downpour. And just to add to the degree of difficulty, one partner must perform the challenge blindfolded. Next comes the Strength challenge, which turns out to be a kissing competition. Finally, it's a battle of nerves, as each couple swims through shark infested waters to complete their task. Following this marathon, one couple is eliminated and the remaining three couples have to impress the crowd in a massive Disco Dance Off. The two couples with the most votes from the auciende will go head to head in the final elimination quiz. The winners will be crowned Beauty And The Geek 2013 and take home the $100,000 prize.
