I Love Money - Season 2 (2009)

With 16 money lovers left, fighting for cash, there's a whole lot of backstabbing and butt kissing going on. In this next challenge, The Gold team and The Green teams go "cheek to cheek", but when two team members throw the challenge and, ultimately cause a loss, a new alliance is exposed. The reason for this sabotage is a dislike for a controlling team member who is considered a "poison". Will the losing team realize this, and cut the bad seed loose, or will they be too intimidated? In the most dramatic elimination ceremony yet, an unexpected twist results in not ...

After a surprising double elimination and an added twist of switching up the teams, the Money Lovers are all shook up. It's questionable whether the original Gold Team alliance is still in tact, and everyone knows they'll have to dig deep inside and do whatever it takes to win the first challenge with the new teams. The possibility of a secret alliance between two friends begins to raise suspicions with the bullies of the house as they scramble to retain control of the game. As a result, other members of the house realize it's time to join forces or be forced out of ...

Having uncovered an original team alliance as still being alive and well, a new secret alliance unites to protect its members and to swing the balance of power in their favor. Using brains over brawn, the new alliance executes a plan to break apart the other regardless of the outcome in a repeat of last season's challenge - the chicken-a-pult!

The Green and Gold teams, and their respective alliances, struggle for dominance of the house, knowing that now is an opportunity to swing the numbers their way. In the Fire and Ice Challenge both teams scramble to free coins from an giant ice block. Turns out having alliance members on the opposing team pays off as sabotage costs one team the game. The two sabotaging players are obvious choices for possible elimination, which leaves the third a Herculean task; sway the paymaster to their alliance in order to stay alive.

Eleven people remain in the house, and the lines between Green and Gold Teams have blurred even more. Alliances are color-blind, as certain players on either team attempt to sabotage the team that they are technically on. Each team is suspended from a giant crane above water and must untangle their twisted ropes in the fastest time to avoid the threat of elimination. The true competition takes place after the challenge, though, as players work overtime to forge allegiances and backstab others.

After the last elimination, the money lovers are told there are no more teams and they're now competing as individuals. Yet even though the teams are dead there are two alliances that are still living strong. At their first individual challenge, the race to throw each other "under the bus" begins. In the end, one alliance wins Pay Master while a member of the opposing alliance becomes the dead last loser. In one of the most enticing power outings yet, a deal is placed on the table that will test the true colors of a money lover.

With just nine people remaining in the house, the stakes are higher than ever. At the challenge, the money lovers must put their bed hopping skills to the test to avoid going into the box. The winner, although immune from going home, is put in a hard position; he must consider sending home one of his most trusted allies, in order to make a power play with the other side.

A last-minute deal before the previous elimination threatens to completely crumble a struggling alliance, while behind closed doors, a new secret alliance begins to form. The more outspoken players finally have an advantage over their quieter counterparts in one of the game's loudest challenges; an old-fashioned screaming match. While some players assume their safety from the deals they've made, others scramble frantically to avoid elimination. Relationships break apart and blatant backstabbing ensues.

With only seven players left in the house, the ruling alliance is confidant that they're in control of game and will now pick off the opposition at will. However, when none of them can cling to their life preserver long enough during the "Hang On Flav" Challenge, their plan is shut down. The entire coalition is thrown into turmoil, as they must decide whom, from their trusted group, to put up for elimination. Allegiances change at lightning speed as former team members turn on each other to keep themselves in the running.

Only six players remain in the house. The cast must battle it out in their strangest reality challenge yet: an obstacle course in which they must don gigantic fake boobs. After the challenge, tensions in the house rise and major plotting ensues. But with things coming down to the wire, will the females in the house decide to exercise their power and try to get the guys out, or will original alliances and loyalties win out?

The remaining five contestants head into the final competitions for all the marbles. The players must lose all their inhibitions, especially their fear of heights, if they don't want to fall short in the first challenge. But it is the final event that will test all their strength, stamina, and brains. Alliances will do no good here. It's every man or woman for them self, and only one person will walk away with the $250,000.

Four months ago 18 reality show veterans waded ashore in Sunny Mexico for a chance to win $250,000. Now they return to our stage to discuss the alliances and conflicts; romances and breakups; and twists and turns that made I Love Money 2 unforgettable! Before it's over, heated words will be exchanged, a stunning new alliance will be revealed, and one of the girls will be given a second chance at love.
