JD: The boy...on the Blue team...is...Deandre

Deandre: *stands up as everyone claps*

JD: Deandre...Your partner is...Carmen

Carmen: *stands up and smiles as everyone claps, then heads to the blue triangle with Deandre*

 

JD: Ok, we have our first official team. The boy on the Green team is...Eric

Everyone: *looks a little surprised*

Eric: *stands up hesitantly and walks over to the Green triangle*

JD: Eric, your partner is...Francesca

Francesca: *stands up and looks relieved but a bit flustered as she joins Eric*

JD: Ok, so far we have the Blue team of Carmen and Deandre, and the Green team is Francesca and Eric. Let's see who's on Red next. The girl...On the Red team...Domonique.

 

Domonique: *mouth drops open as she stands up and slowly walks to the Red triangle*

JD: Why so surprised Domonique?

Domonique: I...I thought I was going to be on Purple...

JD: You'll just have to endure past that. Maybe your pre-planned partner will join you on Red. We'll see right now. The guy on the Red team is...Jaylen.

Everyone: *completely shocked*

Jaylen: *puts hand over his mouth*

Domonique: *wipes a tear from her eye*

Jaylen: *slowly walks to the Red triangle*

 

JD: Well, I see that wasn't what was planned. But, Domonique and Jaylen, for better or for worse, you are the Red team.

Domonique: *sniffs*

 

JD: Well..onto the next team, which will be the Orange team. Rosemary.......You are not on the Orange team. And neither are you, Cheyenne. Which leaves Kyrina and Chelsea. Hmm...Carmen. Why don't you tell me which girl you would like on the Orange team?

Carmen: *looks surprised but pleased*

Kyrina: *looks furious*

Chelsea: *looks nervous*

Carmen: *thinks for a second* Umm...Kyrina I guess

Kyrina: *smiles at Carmen and steps on the Orange triangle*

JD: Ok, Kyrina, you are on the Orange team. And according to votes, your partner will be...Elias.

Kyrina: *looks shocked and furious*

Elias: *looks a bit scared and apprehensively moves to join Kyrina on the Orange triangle. Kyrina turns her back to him*

JD: I see we'll have some trouble to work out...Now onto the Yellow team.

 

JD: The girl on the Yellow team will be...Chelsea. Chelsea, who did you have in mind as your partner?

Chelsea: Well...I was supposed to have Elias...But now, I don't know.

JD: Well, Chelsea, your partner is....Chad.

Chelsea: *looks surprised but extremely happy*

Chad: *looks a bit disappointed*

Domonique: *looks angry and sad*

Chad: *joins Chelsea on the yellow triangle*

 

JD: Now we are down to the last 4 people...Rosemary, Cheyenne, Chris, and Ray. Two of you are on the Purple team, and two of you are on Gray. Rosemary.....you are on the Gray team, which means Cheyenne is on Purple. Rosemary, your partner is...Chris. Which means Gray is Rosemary and Chris, while Purple is Cheyenne and Ray. That's it, we have our seven official teams of Endurance: Argentina!

 

*everyone looks relieved that the partner "mission" is over and a bit nervous standing next to their partner*

 

JD: Now that that's over, I bet you all want to know what yall are playing for, right?

Everyone: YEAH!

JD: Well this year...You will be playing for a trip to the bayous of Louisiana! Ride an airboat through the swamp, taste the unique Cajun and Creole foods, participate in a Mardi Gras parade, spot alligators and other wetland wildlife, and meet some of the locals, who will be very interested in seeing you.

Everyone: *looks very excited*

JD: Now, go get a good rest and talk to your partner and get to know them better. You'll need good communication to stay in this game. You'll get your first pieces tomorrow. Have a good night!

Everyone: *heads to the huts, chatting*
