*Previously on The Challenge XXX: At the 69 Minutes of 69 Challenge, Cara Maria was part of the most usable footage, while Brittany and Svetlana finished at the bottom. At the Climax, Svetlana and Brittany took on five cocks, getting gangbanged and trying to outlast the other until it was lights out for Brittany. The women celebrated the halfway point in the season, but a surprise visit from T.J. could impact the rest of the competition.*

...T.J.: "Hey guys."
Averey, Camila, Cara Maria, Jenna, and Svetlana all look at T.J. as he has a serious look on his face.
T.J.: "Congrats to the five of you on making it to the halfway point, but I have some news..."
The cameras catch the five women with worried looks on their faces.
T.J.: "Your scene is finished."
T.J.: "I have with me, a copy of '69 Minutes of 69', starring the five of you and Brittany, so get settled in, and you can see the finished product of what you all worked on."
Svetlana and Camila both throw pillows at the host realizing he had maliciously swerved them.
Cara Maria: "Very funny. T.J... You got us."
"Not cool Teej!" Cara Maria said, laughing to the host.
T.J.: "We got some people brining in a projector right now, so enjoy it. You girls have all worked hard. I'll see you all at the next Challenge."
Production wheels in a projector, as they can't have a Television in the Challenge house, and cue up the scene.
"Should I make popcorn?" Camila jokingly asks.
The clip starts, and the five women all for the first time, watch themselves in porn. The editors wove together the six separate shoots without many cuts. The first minute shows each pair getting settles, then most of the individual sets of 11:30 scenes are shown together.
Jenna: "So, it's very surreal watching myself fuck on camera, for the first time, but I gotta admit, for six amateurs, it's a pretty good clip, I think. I mean, I look hot, Cara Maria and Svetlana both look hot in the scenes with me. I don't really watch too much girl-on-girl porn, but I like this, maybe cause I'm in it."
"Damn, Jenna your ass looks even better on camera!" Cara Maria said.
Averey: "The scene gave all of us a chance to reflect on how far we've come. Even though none of us knew what we were getting into, I can see any of the five of us winning, and then not doing another Challenge again and going into porn full-time."
"I might sneak down here at nights and watch this by myself some times." Averey joked. "Man, Brittany was hot." She added as she watched herself climb all over the recently-eliminated Bostonian. Cara Maria nodded in agreement.
Cara Maria: "I always have different levels of anticipation of watching back seasons I'm on. I was really glad we were offered a taste of what the season has looked like so far. This was the first time we all really got a reminder that we're all becoming pornstars in this season of the Challenge, and, it seems like we're all having fun doing it."
When her scene with Jenna is on, Cara Maria lightly runs her hand up and down the blonde's leg. Jenna doesn't push it away, and mostly acts like she doesn't notice.
Svetlana: "I think I was as grossed out as everyone when we first heard about the theme of The Challenge, and I'm still feeling some effects of the Climax. But, I think watching the film back, we can tell we're all earning all the money we're getting, and are having just as much fun as other seasons."
Camila: "I'm not embarrassed that there's going to be multiple clips of me having sex on the internet. It's a competition, that's how I, we all view it. I hope stay in it and there will be even more of me to watch."
The film is done. The five women high-five. Watching the film as a collective group, helped ease any lingering sense of awkwardness that existed in each Challenger having sex with their peers.
*Challenge Day*
The women arrive at the same building as the previous week's Challenge.
T.J.: "Hey ladies, congrats again on making it halfway. Today's Challenge is called Optimal Efficiency."
