The group meets Al Snow, Jacqueline, and Tori and begin their training. They also meet Tazz, who comes to their house unannounced one morning and forces them to wrestle in the mud and jog behind him while riding in a Hummer.

Triple H lectures the group about the reality and the integrity of the wrestling business; a reality that Jason decides he is not willing to be a part of and respects too much to waste.

Darryl can't catch a break when he loses a bet in a game of darts to "Big", Josh, Greg, and Maven and aggravates Chris Nowinski when he asks him for more money to cook dinner for Pat Patterson. Meanwhile, the trainers are not keen on his performance, either in the ring or out of it.

After a hard day in the ring, the group realizes that either Shadrick or Chris Ni. are going to be cut. Meanwhile, the kids visit a restaurant staffed entirely by transvestites, who quickly bring Maven, Greg, and Chris Nowinski on-stage.

With Maven away, Josh begins to get lonely and contemplates leaving the competition. Meanwhile, Chris Ni, having earned the nickname "Career Killer", decides that it might not be his time to be a professional wrestler after Mick Foley talks to the group.

Al takes the kids on a three day trip to Backlash, Raw is War, and SmackDown! in order for them to experience what life as a WWF superstar on the road is like where they get a crash course in cutting promos from The Brooklyn Brawler.

As the competition nears its end, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Debra visit the kids at home, "Big" holds one more physical challenge for the group at a rock quarry, and Josh must overcome his self-doubt in order to successfully execute a moonsault.

The kids wrestle against each other as Vince McMahon watches from ringside. The chairman has more in-store for the troupe as they are called into his office at WWF headquarters.

This week's Tough Enough had to be seen to be believed, as the greatest rib in the show's history was pulled off perfectly. Complaining of an injured neck, Jonah was sent to a nearby hospital. Initially, the injury looked bad, which frightened Jonah's cast mates. While at the hospital, however, it was learned that Jonah's injuries were not as severe as first thought and that he would be alright with a little medication. Being the opportunist that he is, Jonah decided that this was the perfect opportunity to play a rib on his cast mates. Wrapped in head bandages and secured by a neck brace, Jonah walked into Trax West and asked everybody to sit around him. He began to cry as he told them that his injury was forcing him out of the competition. As Jonah began to cry, so did all of the other cast mates.

This special showed footage of the tough enough we've seen on tv and the parts we didn't see. We saw the two contestants who lost a bet and had to wear a dress. There was also videos of the contestants learning how to wrestle, which we have not been seeing on TV.

The theme for the week is creativity. The contestants were told to put a personal touch to their moves and Stone Cold Steve Austin takes the contestants to the THQ Headquarters to try out WWE Allstars.
