Beauty and the Geek - Season 1

Seven academically impaired women and seven brilliant but socially challenged men are paired up for a chance to win a grand prize of $250,000. In the first episode, the girls and guys move in, pair up and begin studying for the first challenges, which consists of a spelling bee and dance contest. One team will be eliminated at the end of the episode.

The teams are forced to study extra hard for the latest two challenges, which include car repairs for the ladies and back massages for the guys. Meanwhile, sparks continue to fly between two of the contestants, and everyone waits to hear who will be eliminated next.

This week the teams are faced with more frustrating challenges, as the ladies learn how to build a rocket and the guys buy new outfits for the girls. Meanwhile, one contestant goes to great lengths to try and form an alliance so his team won't get chosen for elimination.

With only four teams remaining in the game, the competition heats up as the ladies get the chance to give the guys makeovers, while the men are given the assignment to get phone numbers from complete strangers. Meanwhile, tensions rise in the house when a rivalry develops between two of the contestants.

The stakes are raised as the guys and girls must work together as a team for the first time in a variety of outdoor challenges, with the winning team securing their place in the final episode. Meanwhile, frustration becomes apparent among the contestants when one requires medical help, another loses their cool and two square off.

With the $250,000 prize money up for grabs, the two remaining teams prepare to compete in the last challenge. Unsure of what the final test will be, both teams spend a day learning more about each other and studying materials from past challenges. Who will be sent packing and who will be named the ultimate "Beauty" and "Geek"?

The Beauties and Geeks gather in front of a live studio audience to reminisce about their time on the show. The guys reveal how their time spent in the house has changed their approach to dating and the girls discuss their new outlook on beauty. Will a romance be rekindled between Erika and Brad? Have Chuck and Richard put their rivalry behind them?
