This article focuses on the interactions between Anne Maria and Ezekiel.

Overview
The moment Ezekiel meets Anne Maria in A Mine Is a Terrible Thing to Waste, he easily becomes attracted to her. In order to impress her, Ezekiel first tries to give her the prize money from the last season (which has burned up), and then gives her a "diamond." Anne Maria believes the diamond is worth more than the million dollars, which prompts her to quit the competition until she realizes it is fake. The two meet each other again in the season finale, where Ezekiel saves her from a mutant squirrel and tries to kiss her (causing her to scream), before being knocked unconscious by Cameron.

A Mine Is a Terrible Thing to Waste
In the mine, Ezekiel kidnaps Anne Maria in front of her teammates, and takes her to his lair. Anne Maria at first tries to bargain with Ezekiel, but comes to realize he is attracted to her, much to her disgust. Anne Maria quickly recognizes Ezekiel as the "creepy stowaway kid from last season" when he captures her in the mine brings her to his lair. She is also disappointed that the prize money from last season that he is about to give her is now in ashes. Eventually, Ezekiel manages to impress her by giving her a large diamond. As a result, she quits the competition only to find out that the diamond is actually fake.

Brain vs. Brawn: The Ultimate Showdown
When Anne Maria is attacked by a mutant squirrel, Ezekiel quickly comes to her aid. He then attempts to kiss her, causing Anne Maria to scream in terror. She is also happy when Cameron hits Ezekiel with a pot.
