10:04: Oh, she's not wearing a bra.
10:06: OK, Devin has a pretty good point. They all jumped on him for hooking up with a confirmed no match, and now all the couples have to deal with being confirmed non-matches.
10:08: Why wouldn't the smartest guy just stand next to a pole with a tire and let the other guys do the running?
10:09: Wait... if there are only 60 tires, a guy can't stack up his own name 6 times anyway. So the guys who are carrying over their own tires to the poles are doing it wrong.
10:16: WHO IS THIS NERD?
Some relatively weak couples here. Chuck-Amanda (13.3%) is the best choice, with Zak-Kiki (9.6%), and Mike-Britni (6.8%) behind.
10:25: Helicoptering. Bold move.
10:27: Wow, 6 figures at age 22? I guess he's a pretty credible nerd.
10:28: Nerds everywhere!!
10:29: Did Zak just raise the price of prescription drugs 5,000%?

It's not always a great strategy to keep going down the line, sending the same person into the truth booth repeatedly. You only have a limited number of guesses, so trying to solve one person can be a rabbit hole. In general, the highest probability guess is usually the best one.
10:36: It's hard enough for me to tell the difference between these people at the start of a season, but adding glasses makes it twice as hard.
10:37: Stage 5 clinger.
10:39: These Sour Patch Kid commercials are awful. (But effective?)
10:42: The team can guarantee no blackout by putting forth the 4 people who were matched up in the first episode but not in the second. It's a pretty low-risk strategy.
10:45: Ryan is getting really unusually involved here! SHOTS FIRED
10:52: Devin unleashing the truth!
Matchup Ceremony
- Chelsey - Connor (repeat from Episode 1)
- Kiki - Chuck
- Amanda - Austin
- Rashida - Devin
- Cheyenne - Tyler
- Melanie - Nelson
- Hannah - Zak
- Kayla - Mike
- Stacey - Alec (repeat from episode 1)
- Britni - Hunter (repeat from episode 1)
Guaranteed not to be a blackout since they repeated 3 of the 4 pairs from episode 1 - they know at least one of these is still a match. Also guaranteed not to be a winning combination. Getting 1 or 2 correct here is probably much more useful than getting 3, 4, 5, or 6 right.
3 correct means 14,129 combinations remain.
