This is the 15th season of the Noble reality game show, The Strife, which aired in 2013. This is also the second Endurance season.

Season's Format

The contestants compete individually in challenges, followed by an elimination round. This season's challenges would see the contestants compete in some insane and sometimes-gross endurance challenges, not limited to being put into a coffin full of worms, eating a bug-filled pizza, etc. The two winners would elect one person each who would partake in another fearful challenge with the person staying being granted immunity for the next round.

The Ultima this season is, once again, the power of nullification. However, it must be used before those in power nominate who they want to be in the duels.

Episodes

Episode 1	Notes for Episode: Everybody enters and generally gets along. Others are hesitant about Fae though but she doesn't do anything antagonistic. During this, Adelina and Romina discuss redemption for themselves after the last Endurance season where the two quit. Adelina can't believe it's been four years since the first one. Gina, Hugo, Vanessa and Brayden all recognize Amirah Burke. Gina says that what she did to Isla (Sumner) was horrible. Vanessa feels like what Amirah and Keith did will prevent another bisexual season like that. The others agree. Hugo says that, hopefully, her and Keith can find happiness but it wasn't the time or place. In the backyard, Evelyn talks to Amirah about what happened on Isla's season. Amirah says that it didn't work out with Keith so it is what it is. If people have a problem with her, she doesn't care. In the kitchen, Brayden talks to Amancio, Laurin and Natalia about who Amirah Burke is--how she chose to leave with somebody else in the cast as opposed to the first openly bisexual bachelorette. He says that it sets a precedent that, if other seasons have male and female contestants, they will leave with each-other and not with the bachelor/ette and that is dangerous. Plus, her and Keith broke up like a month before they all got here anyway. Vanessa notices how stressed Brayden is. Brayden states that he is bisexual so he feels like what she did is bad for representation in the future for a show like The Eligible. Vanessa tries to calm him down and tells him to just ignore her. CHALLENGE HAPPENS!: Amancio and Natalia win! Romina manages to snag Immunity. Brayden asks to speak with Amirah in private. He says that he recognizes her from The Eligible and says how historic a season like that was. Amirah says that it was nothing important. Brayden is taken aback. Amirah admits that she pretended to be into women to get on the show. She just wanted to see how far she'd get. Brayden is shocked. Amirah says that people are making such a big deal over nothing. Plus, her and Keith didn't work out so it's whatever. Brayden flat out screams at her and says that what she did was horrible. Others (Alicia, Evelyn, Gina, Hugo, Marie, Rino, Santiago, Sienna) come out as Brayden tells them that Amirah faked being into women to get onto Isla's season. Amirah stands up and yells at Brayden that he is just jealous that she was on the show and he wasn't. Brayden says that he doesn't need to--he got married last year! Amirah says that her leaving with Keith got her on THIS show so it worked out for her. Brayden, Evenlyn and Sienna all call her selfish. The others are just as disgusted. DUEL NOMINEES: The two nominate Amirah and Sonia for the duel. The two hope that Sonia will eliminate Amirah. DUEL RESULTS: Sonia is eliminated!

Gina, Hugo and Marie, in one of the bedrooms, make an alliance to never go after each-other. They call themselves "The Crumb Coats". CHALLENGE HAPPENS!: Corey and Gina win!

The winners will nominate three and two of them will go. Elijah and Rylianne win! DUEL NOMINEES: The two nominate Marie, Nina and Rudy for the duel. Nina is targeted due to her being a potential wildcard in the future. Marie is nominated as they are worried that her baking knowledge will help her in future competitions.
