Time to draw straws

The sixteen bikini-clad girls all gather around the entrance of a steamy sauna about the size of a bathroom stall. Despite its size, it's miraculous how the set designers managed to create a functioning sauna with meticulously layered wood right under the noses of the cast. The entrance is made of glass, allowing the participants to see their teammates outside, and the non-participants to get a great view of the towel-clad ladies struggling inside.

The only part obscured to the girls outside are the doors behind each side of the sauna's bench. These doors lead to the 'snow room,' a cooled room with piles of snow. In the center of the snow room is a carved circular water hole, the type you would see when ice fishing. Cameras are perfectly placed overhead of the snow room to hopefully capture some cold skinny dipping or naked snow angels from the exhausted women.

“Ladies, we have hot rocks on a stove, and if you fail to accomplish one of my tasks, then the room will become more humid. Two crew members will be the ‘pourers’ who will fetch water from the beach to pour on the rocks as your punishment. When the water hits the rocks, it makes your side of the bench even sweatier. If you lose your towel during one of the tasks, or give into the heat and jump into the snow room, your tribe loses the round”.

Lisa, the head of wardrobe, motions for the contestants to pick their cozy-looking white cotton towels from a bin, which the contestants comply with.

“So we have to decide whether we complete your tasks which risk losing our towel, or test our luck in surviving the heat?” Daphne inquired.

“Correct-amundo, my Greek goddess!” Jez confirms by jumping up and down in a towel wrapped around her bikini, causing the towel to fall off. “And if you look inside your towels, there should be a tag with a number between 1 and 3, which will determine your round order”.

“Round 1 will be the princess, Nina, sweating it out with...the mob boss, Giovanna!” Jez continues after the girls have sorted themselves by order.

“And here I was hoping for some peace and quiet instead of being paired with this chubby blabbermouth…” Giovanna moaned in the confessional booth.

Round 2 will be the model, Charlie, getting hot and heavy with...the photographer, Scarlet!

In her confessional, Scarlet instinctively asked the producer, “Is flash photography allowed?” which only resulted in audible groans.

Round 3 will be the artist, Violet, turning up the heat against...the hard-working Daphne!

Violet is plugging her nosebleed with toilet paper in her confessional. When she saw her matchup, her nose was overcome with the excessive juicy, exposed flesh on Daphne, both on her upper and lower body, before Daphne even stripped to her towel. “Well, so long as we win the first two rounds, I won't have to play the third!”

Returning to the group, Nina and Giovanna begin to wrap the towels around their bikinis and head toward the sauna door. But Jez stops them, grabbing them both by the towels and ripping them back off.

“STOP! Any extra clothing is dangerous in that hot seat, even your cute little bikinis!” The two girls gulp, knowing what to expect next from the pervy host.

“Now...strip off!”
