“Siberia” Episode 1.02 – “A Question of Reality” (airs 7/8/13; 10-11 PM)
DECEPTION AND DRAMA AMONG THE CONTESTANTS MARK EARLY TROUBLE IN THE GAME – A shocking announcement causes the dwindling number of contestants to lose one more. Emotions are heightened, which increases hostility among the contestants. When Esther (Esther Anderson) tricks Victoria (Victoria Hill) into eating uncooked mushrooms, Victoria suffers a hallucination in which she foresees everyone’s deaths. Accusations of theft, discovery of a bloody scene in the woods, and heated arguments centered on food rationing raise more questions in the minds of some contestants about continuing on. Co-starring Jonathan Buckley (host), Joyce Giraud, John Wactor, Daniel David Sutton, Omar Neeko Skervin, Milhan Milosevic, and Sam Dobbins.

DISTRUST DEEPENS AMONG THE REMAINING CONTESTANTS, AND A DEVASTATING FIRE ADVERSELY AFFECTS THEM ALL – Emotions in the group run hot when a fire spontaneously breaks out and sparks of lust are ignited among several contestants. Jeopardy and anxiety heighten with the acute need for food and protection from the Siberian wilderness as Natalie (Natalie Ann Scheetz) and Anne-Marie (Anne-Marie Mueschke) claim to have seen a tiger nearby. Although Johnny (Johnny Wactor) and Irene (Irene Yee) have killed a deer, the camp’s feast is tempered by their fear of what the smell of blood and cooked meat might attract in the night. Co-starring Joyce Giraud, Sam Dobbins, Sabina Akhmedova, Victoria Hill, Daniel David Sutton, Neeko O.J. Skervin, Esther Anderson, Miljan Milosevic, and Jonathon Buckley (host).
