As we shed a tear and bid The Phone (and the Operator!) adieu, it's time we took a look back at all the episodes past and recapped our favorite -- and least favorite -- moments. Read on to find out whether the givers (i.e. peeps who split the money) outnumbered the takers (peeps who took the briefcase and ran), plus hear our votes for the Best Solo Challenge, Grossest Mission and Best/Worst Teams!

We're not sure anything will top last week's Phone (a.k.a. the ep where Mitch took it ALL off in the name of art), but that doesn't mean we're not excited about the new recruits. This week's mission? Track down and rescue a hostage before he's executed (read: left in a burning building!) by a badass Chinese gang. Here's to hoping these guys find/save said kidnappee before dude turns into a barbecued spare rib!

Mitch found himself between a rock and a you-know-what tonight when his partner Rameika asked him to pose nekked for a chance at $15,000. And although he was less than thrilled about showing off his berfday suit, Mitch agreed to ditch his clothes (and his inhibitions) while his teammate searched for clues. Unfortch for Mitch, Rameika couldn't solve the riddle in time. In other words? Mitch showed his "personal goodies" (Rameika's term, not ours) for nothin'!

+ Think Mitch made a mistake by selling out? Or would you have done the exact same thing in his position? Take our poll and let us know whether you'd ever strip down for a big (televised) payday!

Sure, Rameika TOLD Mitch she'd split the cash "down the middle" if she'd won. Then again, she was trying to convince him to do her a $17,500 favor at the time. Think Miss "I solved all the puzzles" would've given her teammate half the loot? Or would she have walked outta there with a full briefcase and never looked back? Let us know whether you guys think Rameika would've dashed with with cash -- or gone halfsies with Mitch.
