Episode 1

Before Rob and Sean even walk into the doors of Coast Mountain Bus which is the company operating the public transit buses in Greater Vancouver, the boys, in learning how to be public transit bus drivers, must first obtain their class 2 drivers license, which isn't as easy as they would like. Once at Coast Mountain, they learn that inherent customer skills are more important than inherent driving skills as their trainers believe anyone can learn how to drive a conventional forty foot bus. After being outfitted and given six hours worth of training primarily in class, the boys are ready to hit the road for their road test, each taking a forty foot bus on a drive on Granville and Oak Streets in Vancouver, two of the busiest and narrowest streets in the city. But that test isn't nearly as harrowing as their final test: to drive in an obstacle course used for sanctioned bus rodeos.

Rob and Sean head to Pole Dance Studio to learn the art of professional stripping. Sarah Korba at the studio not only provides them the fundamentals in pole dancing, but in chair dancing and lap dancing. They then head to Celebrities Nightclub, where they will be performing on one of the club's bi-monthly "X-Rated" nights under headliner, gay porn star Reese Rideout, who provides some pointers to the guys about what he sees as constituting a good strip performance. Each of the boys gives Reese a private sneak peek at their routines for additional constructive criticism, before they, for the first time, perform for a real live audience at the show. Sean in particular may have another priority equal to beating Rob in this competition.

Ron and Sean head to family owned and operated Brookstone Farms in Langley, British Columbia to learn how to be equestrians. Before they even start, they have to be properly attired, those issues largely on items from the waist down. They first are exposed to the less glamorous tasks of stable management, such as cleaning out the horse stalls. Their first exposure to a horse is in grooming it, the most sensitive aspect of this procedure being to remove stray materials from the bottom of the hoofs. They are then shown how to mount a horse and once on how to walk, trot, canter and even perform small jumps. They just hope they can master the maneuvers once they are on Fox, their designated horse, and most importantly not fall off.

The next job that Rob and Sean embark on is as of dominatrix, which they will learn under the tutelage of professional dominatrix, Velvet Steele. Velvet explains the basics of the job to them, including the fact of it being largely feminized, that there is a lot of role play under which there are several subcategories, that BDSM is a majority but not all of that role play, and that, despite others saying otherwise, that the job is about sex, both physical and psychological. Rob and Sean are outfitted for the job, their outfits which combine both the strong aspects of being dominant, with the feminine components of which Velvet told them. Under Velvet's supervision, Rob and Sean "play" with each other, each taking on the role of dominant and of submissive. The SM component may be the most difficult for them as a dom in each basically not wanting to do what they would naturally consider "hurting" someone else, let alone in a sexualized setting. Only performing the job on a true submissive will test their ability. That submissive, Blue, is one of Velvet's regulars, the two who have more than a professional relationship. But the test may be as much for Blue, who identifies as straight and who, as such, has never been dominated in such a setting by a man.

The next gay job Rob and Sean try is modeling, both still photography modeling and runway modeling. For the photography, they are under the tutelage of photographer Janine Armstrong who shows them to where their focus should be and that they still need to be fluid to have multiple poses that will show them off to their best advantage in those split seconds the shutter clicks. For the runway, they are provided a slew of assistants in the form of makeup artists, hairdressers and stylists, but are shown the basics of the runway by models Micah Gilbert and Tiffany Bayley. With the runway, Rob and Sean learn that the gay stereotype does not apply in that in general men should look masculine, and women should look feminine. For the runway, the boys will participate in a fashion show with professional models against who they will interact and thus be compared. Going into the challenges, the boys believe Sean will have the upper hand in the still photography as he does have a portfolio in having done trade-for-print (TFP) work before, while neophyte Rob feels more comfortable in the whole package that is television where continual speaking and moving in combination are important. As such, Rob hopes to be able to pick up more points in the runway segment.

Rob and Sean embark on learning about what they believe may be the gayest job of them all: drag queen. Rob has performed drag before, but it is a completely new experience for Sean. They are under the tutelage of Michael Venus, an expert of all things drag, and whose own drag persona is blonde bombshell "Miss Cotton". Michael is allowing each to choose her own drag persona, first with the choice of clothes, with Michael providing a team of other experts to match the hair and makeup to the persona. Michael teaches them the art of the performance, most specifically how to walk - which focuses on the "T"s and "A"s - in high heels, and how to "tuck" in the man parts properly so that they don't show under the clothes. Who wins the competition will come down to one performance apiece at a show hosted by Chris Bolton aka Conni Smudge at Pulse Night Club, where each of "Veronica Houston" and "Miss Carriage" will strut her stuff while lip-syncing to a song of her choice.
