Ups and Downs

Summary With no one graduating after the most recent panel deliberation for the third time of only five deliberations this season, five nominees remain at the Centre. Andrew discusses how brain functioning is a large cause of the bad driving for those five - with at least two having been diagnosed with some sort of clinical mental health issue - highlighting the importance of Shyamala's role on the panel in helping them become better drivers. Two of the three challenges this week focus on the skill of pedal control. The first is the annual teeter-totter challenge where the nominees each have fifteen minutes to balance a vehicle on a teeter-totter without falling to one side or the other. The third is the annual water tank challenge, with two hundred liters of water in the tank which has the potential to fall on top of the nominees and their nominators depending on how poorly they maneuver through the course, which this year includes a straightway section in which the drivers must reach a speed of 60kph, a precision steering section, a parking lot section with the potential of unexpected hazards, a turnaround corral section which is entered forward and exited in reverse, and a reverse slalom section. After being taught the skill by Philippe, the nominees embark on the second challenge which is to do a hand brake J-turn aka a one hundred eighty degree spin-out in an enclosed space, each having up to five attempts. Much of the focus this week is on Karlene and her ultimate driving goal of feeling comfortable enough to drive on the highway by herself. Karlene goes through some extreme emotional highs and lows this week which results in her really wanting to go home. One of the questions then becomes if the panel, especially Tim who has taken her on public drives, and Karlene are on the same page of if she has reached the goal she wants to achieve.

Devyat soldat

Devyat soldat

The heroes of the series "Soldiers 9" act on three fronts at once. On the first - the personal front - Captain Dubin, Private Nosov and chepochnitsa Zotov are zealous. They are all trying to get reciprocity from people who hold a special place in their hearts. The heroes go on the attack and bare the rear. Then we will find out that Captain Dubin is able not only to justify his surname, but also to speak in a high calm about the most beautiful of feelings, Private Nosov is able to impress a pretty librarian with a luxurious bouquet and convincing knowledge of world classics, and Zotov's chepochnitsa is ready to learn how to play billiards, hoping to make a party for a young businessman. On the second front, there are no changes: soldiers and officers carry out their service. With honor, with humor, or whoever can. According to a bad army tradition, regular exercises suddenly fall into their daily routines from somewhere above. In them, the "red" (ours) will have to prevail over the "blue" (not ours). But the weekdays of the ninth "Soldiers" are not loaded with exercises alone, they have new joys and trials. No prisoners are taken on the third front, and the fighting is increasingly taking on the scale of a large-scale operation. The rivals have Napoleonic plans and long-standing scores to each other. The candidate for deputy Viktor Romanovich Kolobkov goes into big politics, and the inhabitants of the military unit have to follow him. The good news is that new recruits are coming to the unit.
