TKCA 1ZZ, TURKS & CAICOS ISLANDS: In the 'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6 premiere, narrator Desiree Burch shocks the audience by revealing that the ensemble will compete for a new prize fund. Despite the fact that this ought to encourage them to maintain their celibacy, a few of the new cast members succeed in breaking more than one rule in the first four episodes.

Anyway, when everyone's favorite talking cone finally emerges, she reveals that she is providing the cast with the greatest prize fund in the history of the popular reality program. One quarter of a million bucks! For those of us who struggle with math, that's a staggering $250,000!

In a confessional, Kylisha Jag says the prize money is too significant to overlook, and she'll do all in her power to keep it that way. Sadly, though, she has no control over other people's behavior; they will disobey the rule without feeling the slightest bit of shame.

Charlie Jeer and Brianna 'Bri' Balram pose threat to 'Too Hot to Handle's $250K prize fund

As the Season 6 premiere comes to a conclusion, Lana takes action by removing the two most serious threats to her prize fund: Charlie Jeer and Brianna 'Bri' Balram. While the rules were not enforced by Bad Lana, if they had, "every single one of them would have broken at least one of them."

As a result, all of their acts have repercussions, which is why Lana chooses to send Charlie and Bri away.

Lana tells the gathering that Charlie was the worst-behaved guest and the first to depart. He kisses three different women on the first day—quite the player.

Bri "actively pursued physical connections," making her the "bigger threat" to the prize cash, so Lana decides to send the 26-year-old model out the door, despite the fact that it was a tight call because two different guests kissed two different people.

New rules for 'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6 eliminated contestants

Charlie and Bri are banished, but that doesn't mean they're gone for good, they simply have to spend a day in the banishment quarters before going back to Lana's retreat to try again for true love.

Charlie Jeer continues to cost 'Too Hot to Handle' Season 6 prize fund

When they get back, Charlie breaks Lana's restrictions, but Bri mostly adheres to them. He has broken the rules several times by the conclusion of the first four episodes, which has caused the prize money to drop from $250,000.
