Beauty and the Geek Australia

- Season 2

(2010)

Eight new beauties, including one who is actually twins, are paired up with eight new geeks. The geeks put their knowledge of fashion and beauty to the test when they dress their beauties in a hand-made bikini that best reflects the geeks' character, which the beauties parade in front of a panel of former Miss Australia winners. The beauties build devices that their geeks have to fly. The winners of the two challenges each nominate a team to send to the Elimination Room, where they participate in a quiz in which the team with fewer correct answers is eliminated.

The seven remaining beauties have to handle creepy-crawlies in a mathematics challenge where they must transfer bugs of different values to their own bowls, aiming to be the first to score exactly 100 points worth of bugs. They are then set another challenge where the first beauty to eat a witchetty grub wins immunity from nomination for her team. The geeks stand in as cabana boys at a luxurious five-star hotel's pool bar.

The six remaining beauties take on a La revanche d'une blonde (2001) style challenge involving law, where they have to speak on a topic for which they are told whether they are for or against it.

The geeks are taught some dance moves by Australia's Got Talent (2007) winners Justice Crew, and have to perform them in front of a live audience, with the hip-hop dance-pop group also serving as the judges.

The four remaining beauties participate in a spelling bee and the four geeks have to search through a pile of shoes for the one pair that fits their "Cinderella" beauty. Their performances in these challenges determine their handicaps for a race where the geeks have to pull their beauties in chariots, where the last team to cross the finish line is eliminated.
