Everyone likes a little friendly competition. But come Saturday, three high-school students will be putting on some serious game face in a fight to win the title of MADE: Hip Hop Dance Battle champ, as well as long-term bragging rights. Tune in tomorrow at noon and watch as these wannabe hip hoppers cap off a grueling month of training by going head-to-head in a full-on dance war. Oh, and did we mention they'll be performing to a packed auditorium and being judged by Sean Kingston and Fonzworth Bentley? Yep, no pressure there ...

+ Don't miss the premiere of MTV's MADE: Hip Hop Dance Battle on Saturday, June 27 at 12pm ET/PT.

The final episode of From G's to Gents kicked off with a ride on a private jet and was filled with plenty-o-drama for the rest of the hour. The most shocking moment (for us, at least) came when Season One's Creepa and Shotta — and not this season's former contestants — returned to help Fonzworth Bentley narrow the final three men down to two. They ultimately sent Teddy packing, but not before Bentley surprised everyone by inviting Shotta, last season's runner-up, to become an official member of the Gentleman's Club. It's great to see that last year's men have stayed on the straight and narrow!

But let's get down to the main event, shall we? Fonzworth crowned Mito as the ultimate gentleman in an emotional final chapter meeting (we may or may not have shed a few tears!). But that's not all: Bent also told Blue that, although he wasn't crowned the winner, he was accepted into the Gentleman's Club as well and would have housing for an entire year while he gets back on his feet. Everyone's a winner!

What a season! Do you think everything played out the way it should have? Vote in the poll and then share your favorite moments from Season Two in the comments below!

The From G's to Gents reunion was everything we hoped it would be and more: Emotional, scandalous and, most of all, hilarious. Most of the humor was brought by Houston's finest, Riff Raff, who declared that he changed his name to "Raff Riff" in honor of opposite day. Also? He just discovered that "riff raff" is another term for "trash."

We also got the chance to catch up with some of our favorite G's, including Baron, who admitted that he went back to the alcohol after he left the Gentleman's Club but is no longer letting it get the best of him. And in even better news, he's moved out of the hood and into a gated community with his family — and he's starting a foundation to help kids get off the street. That, ladies and gentlemen, is true progress.

What a long, strange trip it's been. Throughout Season 2 of From G's to Gents, we got to know a variety of hard mo-fos -- drunks, bullies, deadbeat dads and so on -- who were looking to change their ways. And on tonight's episode, we witnessed the final transformation of Blue and Mito into proper gentleman. (Note: Daily maintenance is required.)

Hear from Bentley below about why he awarded Mito the moolah and also allowed Blue a permanent place in the Gentleman's Club. Plus, after the jump, Fonzy tells runner-up Teddy why it was so hard to let him go.

We've got some sad news, everybody: The second season of From G's to Gents ends tonight. But that doesn't mean the best isn't yet to come! There's an entire evening of Fonzworth Bentley and his crew lined up, starting with a cast reunion. Riff Raff brushes his teeth! All In dances! Fahim gets angry and has a heated confrontation with Bentley! There's even a proposal!

Afterward, the newest member of the Gentleman's Club will be inducted — and walk away with $100,000. Will it be Blue, Mito or Teddy? Our money's still on our original front-runner, Blue. But we hear Bentley will be enlisting the help of some special guests (formerly eliminated contestants, perhaps?) to help make his decision, so anything can happen.

Place your bets now on who you think will be the second official member of the Gentleman's Club!

We'll always have a soft spot in our heart for Baron, the G formerly known as "Dirty." After being dumped in a garbage bin as an infant, the gent-in-training really made something of himself during his time at the Gentleman's Club.

Alas, Fonzworth Bentley sent him packing because he felt that Baron had more important things to take care of — like his two children (and two more on the way!).

All our gentlemen-in-training had their hands full this week during the From G's to Gents family visits. And while Teddy and his girl debated the pros and cons of big pimpin', Blue had to deal with both his grandmother and girlfriend AND confront his mother via telephone, as ordered by Mr. Bentley.

You see, our boy Blue was feeling guilty about leaving his mom behind with a shoddy roof over her head and bills piling up, but he thought it was in the fam's best interest for him to go off on his own to better himself. And it took a couple phone calls, lots of tears and a handwritten letter, but Mama Blue finally let her son know that she supported him no matter what. (Awwwwww.)

Meanwhile, we're still torn on the issue. On the one hand, Blue's abandoning his family to appear on a tv show (and there's only a 1 in 16 chance that he'll actually walk away with the prize money). On the other hand, maybe it's time for him to stop worrying about his mother 24/7 -- and start thinking about himself.

What do you think: Should Blue feel bad about leaving his family behind? Or is he doing the right thing by trying to better himself on G's to Gents?

It's not easy for any of the eliminated G's to go back home after being booted from the Gentleman's Club. The bills have piled up, the baby mamas are cranky and all the old friends are back to being parasites.

Well, Fonzworth's got a three-step plan for making Baron's life more bearable during this transition: 1) Distance yourself from the bad crowds. 2) No drinking. 3) Feed your baby in a way that won't get you arrested. Check it out:

Baron had a tough go at it on the latest episode of From G's to Gents. First, he had baby mama drama when the mother of his children paid a visit to the mansion. Evidently the two don't get along that well, and we had to witness multiple arguments throughout the duration of the episode. To add insult to injury, Bentley decided to send him packing so he could take care of his family back in Miami. Talk about pouring salt in the wound!

We agree that Baron had learned all he could and ultimately needed to be elsewhere, but really, Bent? Baron was sent packing before Teddy? We disagree.

There's a reason Fonzworth Bentley's gentlemen-in-training are allowed visits from family members when it gets down to the final four. Sure, it's fun for the fellas to see their loved ones, but — more importantly — the quality time is crucial for the men to let go of their past and move forward with the support of those closest to them.

This week, Baron was visited by his son and the mother of his children, Blue got to see his grandmother and girlfriend, Mito spent time with his girlfriend and son, and Teddy was paid a visit by his girlfriend. Every visitor seemed to be on board with the fellas' progress, but some were less supportive than others (Baron's "baby mama," we're looking at you!).

We were partial to Blue's adorable grandmother and girlfriend — they even helped him stand up to his mother! — but we want to know what you think: Which G has the best support system to help him succeed once he gets back in the real world?
