One Million Bucks, B.C.

'''Chris turns back the clock to the stone age as the campers engage in prehistoric challenges. The new player starts to alter the game as  one player starts to have psychotic episodes and another player starts to adjust to her presence. Meanwhile, how does her team respond to her?'''

Plot
As the episode begins, the inside of the trailers is shown. First the girls trailer where Heather gets bitter over Lindsay still having hair while she is bald and proceeds to hurt her by pulling on the hairbrush that had gotten caught in a hair knot. When Courtney enters, Lindsay glares at her since now that she is back on the team, no one will listen to her anymore. Upon seeing Courtney's hair, Heather decides to try and steal it to make herself a wig; several times through the episode she tries to do this but fails miserably all the time. In the guys trailer, Justin talks about all the parts of his body his agent tells him to protect while Duncan talks about how he doesn't care about Courtney anymore (while secretly daydreaming about her).

The teams hear a loud bonghorn and exit the trailers to find Chef and Chris outside in loincloths. After Chris tells the castmates about a set of special treatments Courtney got herself such as keeping her PDA, her own bathroom and gourmet food; he announces the challenge to be about the paleolithic era, a.k.a The Stone Age. Chris then tells the castmates to dress up in the loincloths he provides and gives Heather a Flintstones-like wig.

The first challenge involves both teams trying to make fire with only rocks. While Lindsay further argues with Courtney about no one listening to her since she arrived, Duncan steals glances at Courtney and Harold gets chased multiple times by the Giant Woolly Beavers. When the challenge begins, Duncan and Courtney start a competition between each other to see who can light the fire faster, which Duncan ultimately wins since he uses a lighter to light the fire. After Courtney complains on how those rocks couldn't light anything, Lindsay lights a fire accidentally with only one strike of the rocks.

The second and final challenge involves two members of opposite teams in two rock pedestals above a tar pit, trying to knock each other off with bones. Chris then reveals that since he saw Duncan using the lighter to set up the fire, the Grips won the first challenge and they get larger bones to fight.

The first round is between Lindsay and LeShawna. After Lindsay asks when the fight begins, Chris blows on the giant blowhorn from the beginning of the episode, startling Lindsay and making her fall into the tar pit. In the second round, Heather fights against Beth. While Heather throws random strikes, a giant Monster Loon snatches her new wig and makes her fall forward and cling on Beth's bone. Beth lets go and Heather falls into the tar pit. The final round is between Harold and Justin, when the fight begins, the Wooly Beavers return and attack Harold's rock pedestal, making him fall forward and knock Justin off his pedestal, making them both fall into the tar.

Chris then proceeds to announce the final tie-breaker bout...Courtney vs. Duncan. He gives this challenge a twist however, since instead of standing on two pedestals, Courtney and Duncan must stand on the same. While on top the pedestal, Courtney clings onto Duncan so as to not fall, after Duncan teases her with her wanting to kiss him, they both fall backwards, but Courtney grabs onto Duncan's arm and pulls them back up and they accidentally kiss. After a confessional where both reveal that they both still love each other but at the same time make each other angry; we are shown the pedestals again, this time, Courtney pulls Duncan into another kiss, but while they're kissing, she hits Duncan in the crotch with the battle bone and knocks him off the pedestal, making the Killer Grips the winners.

Chris then announces that no one gets voted off, but that the Grips get a special reward...a giant Flintstones-like Mammoth rib; which Chef later accidentally knocks into the tar pit. As a consolation price, the Gaffers get a Giant Loon Egg to make a tartlet. When the Giant Loon comes back for its egg, Heather beats it up and gets her wig back.

The episode ends as Courtney in the confessional saying she still likes Duncan but will not admit it, while saying that he got what he had coming for the relationship she believes he had with Gwen. While Duncan says he didn't have a relationship with Gwen and says he still likes Courtney while complaining about how she hits his "privates".
