INTERVIEW: TOBIAS SMYTH

"I never want to be part of the herd. I guess I was in case you haven't heard. Maybe you can tell that I can't stand the way I want to be included. I always want to be a mystery. I always knew that two and two made three. I wish away the time I'm living in.

I never want to see the smile again."

INTERVIEW: IPOD WALKER

What have you done that has brought you here? I got caught in a raid at my boyfriend's house. He did a lot of underground electronics selling.

Whats your ability? I can hear all sorts of different sound waves. I can pick up the radio, cell phone conversations, and just about everything if I 'tune' myself properly.

What do you have to say to the other contestants? Hi!

If you could take back your crime, would you? Probably. I'm not bad, I promise. I didn't even know this was going on until a couple of months ago.

INTERVIEW: COTY "T" RANOVER

"My father once said, "Son, life will take you for a ride if you let it... she'll knock you to the floor..." I won't believe that. Although it may seem that way I know the storms will fade.
So, bring on the rain."

"Played By": Zac Efron

What have you done that has brought you here? I killed someone, not intentionally, but I did mean to hurt them. They did something bad to my sister, so I beat them and it went...too far. Cory tried to stop me, but I didn't want to listen. I was mad. My lawyer was able to get me off because of temporary insanity, but I still have to see a lot of therapists. It's a crime of passion I guess. I still don't feel free though.

Whats your ability? Cory already sort of explained it. I guess it's a more complicated term for psychic abilities. Meta-physics is all about the mind and our perception of our reality. What you believe becomes your reality. Because of our increased brain energies, it makes it so that we can achieve more than most normal people. Though, it's inconsistent. One moment of faltering can change everything. It's not something we like to rely on.

What do you have to say to the other contestants? They make me a little nervous. I don't do too well with people though. Especially intimidating ones. I'd rather just keep to myself, but I know that's not going to happen. I don't want to let anyone down.

What's your favorite kitchen utensil? Spoons.

If you could take back your crime, would you? Yes. I hate that I let my temper take things too far. I should have left it at one swipe, or been the better person. I just hated him so much, still do.

Name one personal item in your bag, then tell us why you have it. I keep a picture of me and my brother together. I'm doing this for him. I want him to be back in his own body again. It's been too long. He should be happy and not suffering because of me. He doesn't deserve this. I'm glad to keep him alive until his original body is healed though. It's the least I can do.

What is your comfort food? Macaroni and Cheese, preferably the Stoffer's Kind.

If you were a T-shirt what would your slogan be? "I am not an English major. I are a Scientist."

If Hollywood made a movie about your life, whom would you like to see play the lead role as you? Toby Macguire

What can you bring to your team? Logic, patience, and understanding. I'm a good follower, and that's important sometimes.

What will you miss most while leaving your current life behind for this challenge?My family. Mom's probably going to freak out.

Who do you think will prove to be most obnoxious on your team? Toby. He acts like he knows everything. I can tell he's the only person who doesn't like me.

Who will save your skin at least once? Probably everyone.

If you win back your freedom, what will you do next? Give my brother back his body, and I'll be allowed to forget about what happened. It'll be great, because I don't know how much longer I can handle this....

Do you think you would have gotten in trouble if you didn't have
your powers? No, just my own stupidity.

What do you think will be the toughest part of this contest? Not getting scared, and I get motion sickness pretty bad.

Do you have any special skills, outside of your power? I'm smart. Genius smart. I'm also fluent in six languages outside of English: Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian, German, and American Sign Language.

What kind of music/books/movies do you like? I listen to a lot of world music. I love pop too. I like to dance. It's one of my favorite things to do actually which a lot of people think is weird. I watch foreign films. One of my favorites is "Amelie", and I'm also into "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" and anime. Lots of anime. Books, I read manga, comics in general, and Harry Potter and other contemporary fantasy novels.

If it came down to you or your teammates what would you do? Would you help them, or abandon them? No. I don't think I could continue on by myself.

How do you feel about the other teams? I hope they don't try to hurt me.

Who are your heroes? People who can continue on through out the day despite their pain.

INTERVIEW: CORY RANOVER

"Just when you think that you're all right, I'm crawlin' out from the inside. I never hurt anyone.

I never listen at all."

Your Name: Cory Ranover
Age: 24
Sex: Male
Hometown: North East Minneapolis, Minnesota

"Played By": Kellan Lutz

What have you done that has brought you here? Guilty by association. I'm currently sharing a body with my younger brother, so whatever he does, I do. It's complicated.

Whats your ability? My soul is currently preserved in an unbreakable crystal that's connected to my brother's body. Together our brain power is naturally so full of energy, we can do a lot of bizarre meta physical powers. That's also complicated. He's the science buff, not me.

What do you have to say to the other contestants? Good night and good luck?

What's your favorite kitchen utensil? Turkey Baster.

If you could take back your crime, would you? I tried to stop it at the time, and now I'm not sure if I would or not.

Name one personal item in your bag, then tell us why you have it. I have worn down copy of my favorite book. It helps me relax.

What is your comfort food? Peanut-butter

If you were a T-shirt what would your slogan be? "You're just jealous because the voices are talking to me."

If Hollywood made a movie about your life, whom would you like to see play the lead role as you? Brad Pitt, sexiest man alive.

What can you bring to your team? My charm, wit, and sex appeal.

What will you miss most while leaving your current life behind for this challenge?My life in general, but I suppose I haven't had one of my own for a long time. I haven't been in my body for about two years.

Who do you think will prove to be most obnoxious on your team? Toby. He's kind of a little asshat. Plus I don't like how he picks on my brother so much. Ryan's kind of a bitch too.

Who will save your skin at least once? Coty, but that's not anything out of the norm for me.

If you win back your freedom, what will you do next? Go back and get my body. I was promised it'd be ready for me.

Do you think you would have gotten in trouble if you didn't have
your powers? Oh definitely. Because I'd be in my own body and not paying for my brother's mistakes.

What do you think will be the toughest part of this contest? Stopping him from making more bad decisions and keeping with our 'deal'.

Do you have any special skills, outside of your power? I'm persuasive, smart, and a people person.

What kind of music/books/movies do you like? My favorite books are "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" and "Lord of the Rings". I keep a copy of Hitchhikers. It's trimmed with silver and hardcover, but still pretty well worn. I like the movies of both those books. Star Wars, Star Trek, and I listen to a lot of rock and trance music.

If it came down to you or your teammates what would you do? Would you help them, or abandon them? I would never leave anyone behind unless I absolutely had to. We all win.

How do you feel about the other teams? So far they're interesting enough.

Who are your heroes? Anyone who's willing to stand up for the themselves.

INTERVIEW: RYAN CALLAWAY

"When I think of you, I think of this, and then it turns to bitterness. I pray for amnesia; I beg for anesthesia. Forget the lies and numb the pain. If this don't stop, I'll go insane.

The more I hurt, the more I curse your name."

Your Name: Ryan Callaway

"Played By": Megan Fox

What have you done that has brought you here? Trespassing, breaking and entering, and vandalism to my ex-boyfriend's house. He cheated on me, so I told him what I thought about that by smashing his plasma TV, putting graffiti on his walls, and poking holes in all of his condoms.

Whats your ability? Rewinding time a few seconds to a minute at a time. I don't use it much, but if there's something that happens in my future that I'd rather stop, I'll take it back if I can. It hurts to use though both physically and emotionally because I'm the only one who remembers the path not taken.

What do you have to say to the other contestants? Stay out of my way.

What's your favorite kitchen utensil? Meat tenderizer.

If you could take back your crime, would you? Nope, I don't regret it one bit. I only regret that I let things go too far in our relationship.

Name one personal item in your bag, then tell us why you have it. I keep a picture of my goal with me at all times.

What is your comfort food? Peanut Butter Cups

If you were a T-shirt what would your slogan be? "Yes I'm a bitch, just not yours"

If Hollywood made a movie about your life, whom would you like to see play the lead role as you? Natalie Portman.

What can you bring to your team? Leadership, intelligence, and focus.

What will you miss most while leaving your current life behind for this challenge? My goal, but that's why I have to win.

Who do you think will prove to be most obnoxious on your team? Cory or Toby. Cory is kind of like a wind-up toy, and Toby thinks he's so badass but he's really all talk and no action. I can't stand people like that. Ipod might prove irritating as well only because she can't freaking talk.

Who will save your skin at least once? No one, but I'm sure I'll be saving a lot of everyone else's.

If you win back your freedom, what will you do next? Go back home and collect my goal and move on with my life.

Do you think you would have gotten in trouble if you didn't have
your powers? My powers had nothing to do with my getting in trouble, so no.

What do you think will be the toughest part of this contest? Not killing my team members.

Do you have any special skills, outside of your power? I can hold my own in a fight.

What kind of music/books/movies do you like? I like historical fiction and adventure. "Clan of the Cave Bear" is a great book and I loved "The Hunger Games". Movies I like long emotional dramas like "Atonement", "The English Patient", and "Moulin Rouge". As far as music goes, I like rock. The harder, the better.

If it came down to you or your teammates what would you do? Would you help them, or abandon them? If they're going to keep me from reaching my goal, I won't have issues leaving them behind.

How do you feel about the other teams? I'm sure they're all great people, but they're also competition, so I'm not going to be getting attached.

Who are your heroes? Hilary Clinton
