 The episode begins recounting Manny Gamburyan s decisive victory over Noah Thomas. Dana talks about how Jens Pulver has two wins over Team Penn and that it s driving BJ nuts. Jens still controls the fight selection and BJ feels that Gabe Ruediger could be picked next due to his weight issues. With this in mind, Gabe asks BJ to arrange a colonic for him. Back at the house, Team Pulver returns and awards Manny the house UFC Belt for his win over Noah. Later that evening, Nate Diaz sits around the fire pit with some of his teammates and stews about needing to fight as soon as possible. The next day at the Team Penn training session BJ calls a meeting to give Gabe some tough love for being so unfocused. Next at Team Pulver s training session, Corey Hill reveals that he can be a little psychotic when it comes to fighting. Jens then enters the gym and gathers the fighters to announce a surprise coach for their team. Jens brings in Jeremy Horn as a special guest coach for Team Pulver. Nate Diaz is excited to see Horn there, having been a big fan of his for years. New to the world of fighting, Corey Hill has no idea who Jeremy Horn is. Gabe heads to the "Healing Waters" clinic for his colonic. A very enthusiastic technician, who thoroughly enjoys her work, greets Gabe and after a good cleansing, he heads back to work out with his team. At the gym, Gray Maynard gives his opinion on Gabe and his colonic. Gray states that he s cut weight many times and he s never shoved a tube up his butt. Back at the house, a few of the fighters blow off some steam by dressing up in thongs to see who s the biggest homophobe. Nate can t believe what they re doing and is visibly uncomfortable with the parade of fabulous thongs. The next day both teams assemble at the UFC Training Center for the fight announcement. Cole Miller and Manny Gamburyan move on to the quarterfinals. Dana then asks Jens who s going to fight next. Back at the fight announcement, Jens Pulver motions for Nate Diaz to step out. Nate immediately walks up to Rob Emerson and calls him out. Back at the house, Nate draws with a magic marker, writing "209" on the walls and doors. This is Nate s hometown area code in Stockton, California. He then talks about how his brother got him into fighting and that he loves to fight. On the other side of the house, Emerson is also tagging the walls with his own designs. Emerson talks about being from Orange County, California and that he likes to train hard and party harder. The next day at the official weigh in, Emerson and Diaz step up to the scale. Dana handicaps the fight saying that this fight could go either way. At the Team Penn training session, Rob Emerson prepares for his fight with Nate Diaz. Emerson wants to win this for his team and get the hammer back, but most importantly he wants to put on a good show. During Team Pulver s training session, Nate gets ready for his fight with Emerson. He reveals that no one on his team wanted to fight Emerson because he is one of the tougher fighters. The next day is Fight Day. At the house, both Emerson and Nate get ready to leave for the gym. Nate says he picked Emerson because he created tension with him by writing "Suck It Team Pulver" on the wall and now it s time to get rid of that tension. Emerson only wants to fight the toughest guys and he feels Nate is the toughest. Entering Octagon, Emerson predicts that there s going to be blood, sweat, and maybe even some broken bones. Nate tells Emerson that he better keep his chin down because anything can happen in this fight and he s here to win it. Nate Diaz vs. Rob Emerson: Round One.
