Two teams... one goal... $3000, and the right to
press the button on Destroy Build Destroy! Here're your teams for tonight's
BALLS (soccer players)
Tonight, the teams will build human powered
water-pumping firetrucks. Like real engines, they need ladders, wheels, and a
pump to deliver optimum soakage. They'll build the firetrucks from.... police
Each team will destroy the other's cruisers, so there
is strategy coming into play by making it harder for the other team to salvage
wreckage. The first Destroy options...
- One word. Plastique.
- Another word. Bulldozer.
- A third word... Destroyers.
Brains choose to send the bulldozer over to the
Balls' car, while the Balls... send over the Destroyers... who pop a tire. And
break the light!Dirty!
And now... THREE! TWO! ONE! DESTROY!
The bank drops the footballers' bus off of a
cliff, while the footballers unleash the howitzer.
And it's time to... Ah-ooo, ah-ooo, ah-ooo...
Now comes the fun bit... Remember, there are
builders, wreckage, and other junk. Winners get $1000 each and the chance to
rain the final pain on the losing team's vehicle. Good times.
That said, good luck to both teams... Three...
two... one... BUILD!
Cole noticed that the Balls didn't really spend a
lot of time looking at the parts. The Balls decide on Katey as the leader. She
has an idea of putting the pump on a rotating platform, as well as a brake and a
push bar that doubles as a ladder. This is just a rough sketch, so plan on it
The Brains, on the other hand, decide on AJ and
Cole as the leaders. They decide on a fixed pump in front, a push bar and brake
in the back, and in the middle... two ladders. Cathy doesn't want it to be too
heavy.. but no one listens to her.
SETBACK CHALLENGE: T-Ball Smash
Each team has 10 windows. First to break all of
them with baseballs will win the right to inflict a setback on their opponents.
Cathy manages to break the other team's windows
by mistake, while Cole is struggling. Winners... BALLS!
Now they get a choice between two setbacks...
- the Bubble Avalanche will unleash a lot of
- One Hand Handicap.
They decide on the One Hand Handicap. The Balls
get back to work while the Brains suit up. And as it turns out... it thoroughly
sets them back. Luckily, 15 minutes isn't that long.
And... TIME! Cathy thinks that their rig is too
heavy. Let's see what you have...
BALLS: The Balls' unnamed engine is basically
built to the specifications made by Katey. But will it hold?
BRAINS: Brainpower has a metal ladder, a front
tank, and a rear brake, but is it indeed too heavy?
Now it's time for a final challenge. Navigate
your firetruck through a slalom of barrels until you reach a wall. Then using
your ladder, retrieve your fire hose. Then go back across the course,
extinguishing fires along the way. Then grab your water tank and spin a target
until it flies off. The first team to do that wins.
Right away the brains hit a barrel... and
another. Meanwhile, the Ball ladder is coming off. The Brains have their hose
first. The Balls made up a lot of time... and took the lead when the Brains got
tired pushing their heavy cart. Both teams start their pump... but the Ball pump
is not giving their team the bit of power that they need. Cathy of the Brains is
locked onto that barrel. And it's a dead heat! The Balls are connected to the
final tank, but can they seal the deal on the final target?
YES! BALLS WIN!
Now comes the nice bit. How do you want to send
the losing lug off in a blaze of glory? You have a time bomb... You have a naval
cannon. Which will it be? Looks like it's unanimous. The Balls are using the
Next week, it's Ben 10 vs. Dude, What Would
Happen. Until then, someone load up the bomb...
... and you are go for boom time. Five... four...
three... two... one... DESTROY!
