Road Rules: Slaps and Failure

Having squeaked past the Dot-commers in Atlanta, the Road Rulers seem poised to become a complete team, with everyone a full-fledged member and no one fearing being voted out. Shane continues to go big for the team, and Sarah is feeling much more comfortable with everyone and her status in the group. As they enter Alabama for their next mission, they are all having fun... until Shane slaps Darrell. It was in fun as they all joked around, prank-calling Shane's friends, but Darrell is not cool with having someone hit him in the face. He leaves the RV rather than doing something he will regret later. When the two are paired together in the balancing challenge, the tensions mount - especially when Shane teases like he's going to grab Darrell's behind. But by the end of the mission, Shane and Darrell have worked through their differences and are friends once again.
