On tonight's episode of The Real World, the roommates find out they'll be going on a trip.  Shauvon reaches a decision on whether or not she should leave Sydney for her boyfriend back home.

Kelly Anne has a hard time letting go of Sutton, her ex, while trying to form a new relationship with Cohutta.  Noticing how much time she spends on the phone and emailing Sutton, Isaac and Dunbar corner Cohutta, telling him to drop Kelly Anne.  What guy wants to be the next best thing?  No one in his right mind, of course!

The roomies find out that, for work, they'll be heading to Cairns, Australia to explore the Great Barrier Reef and go bungee jumping.  Everyone is excited except Shauvon, who worries that her boyfriend back home, David, will not be thrilled when he finds out she'll be going on a trip.  Her worst fears are confirmed when she calls him and he begins yelling and screaming at her. 

She's left with an ultimatum: leave Sydney or he leaves her.  For her, there is no choice but David.  She sits her roommates down and tells them she'll be on the first flight out of Sydney.  They seem to understand, knowing that she's doing what's best for her and she needs to work out her relationship with the man she loves.  She calls David to give him the good news and of course, he's happy.  After all, he got his way.  Shauvon says goodbye to the people she has been sharing a house in Australia with.  She says one final prayer with Trisha and heads out the door.

Life goes on without Shauvon and everyone heads to Cairns for their job with Contiki.  It is a new experience for all, as they get to see things like wallabies, sting rays, and all kinds of wildlife.  While heading to the Great Barrier Reef, Kelly Anne talks about Sutton to Cohutta, who doesn't seem to want to hear about it.  There's no time for that, though - there's an ocean to explore!  Once they finish, Cohutta wastes no time making a date with a girl on their boat, which doesn't sit well with Kelly Anne.  Hey, she can't have her cake and eat it, too!

When everyone heads out to the bar, Kelly Anne decides she'll have fun of her own and vows to find someone to make out with.  It doesn't take her long to find an Aussie who's up for the task.  Take that, Cohutta!  Oh, but wait a minute.  Parisa doesn't waste anytime with Kelly Anne's new man, running up to dance and flirt with him the minute she turns her back.

The morning after, the girls put their ill will toward each other aside as they prepare to bungee jump.  One at a time, they take the plunge.  The jump finally puts a smile on Dunbar's face.  It's about time something did!  Isaac gets over his fear of his heights and takes a leap of faith.

At a bar in Cairns, Kelly Anne and Trisha team up on Parisa, calling her a slut both behind her back and to her face.  Cohutta tries to talk some sense into Kelly Anne, particularly for the language she used with Parisa.  Thank you, it's about time somebody told the women of the Sydney house to stop fighting!  Back home, Cohutta tells Kelly Anne that he won't play second fiddle.  However, they both admit their feelings for each other and it seems they're going to give their showmance a shot!

Next time on The Real World,  a new roommate shows up in Sydney and shakes things up.
