Watch The Real World online: Episode 20 The Pressure's On

The pressure is on the roomies as the deadline for their film project approaches. Everyone's reputation is at stake, especially aspiring film student Nehimiah's.. Since the housemates know that Nehimiah has previous editing experience, they leave all of the video editing to the expert, something that Lacey and Rachel don't feel completely comfortable doing. Judgment day arrives sooner than anyone would like it to, and Paul comes to the house to see what the housemates have been working on the entire time they've been there. Paul sees the video and does not seem too enthusiastic, asking the housemates to keep on working on the video until they show it to the Austin Film Society the next day. Nehimiah decides to go out of the house later that night to freestyle rap at a club, leaving his roommates behind to fend for themselves in the editing lab. Melinda and Rachel take turns editing the footage, trying to use all of the suggestions that Paul had given them earlier that day. Nehimiah comes to the house later that night, and goes to sleep confident that he won't have a problem finishing the film in time for the deadline the next day. Time is ticking, and Lacey really starts to feel the pressure. Nehimiah finishes the film, but one hour before the housemates are supposed to go show it, the computer freezes and doesn't let anyone write the video to tape. Luckily the housemates call to get help, and one minute before the film screening is supposed to take place, Lacey and Rachel arrive with the tape in hand. All of Nehimiah's last minute efforts work out for the best, as the Austin Film Society critics seem to like the movie, giving the housemates a little constructive criticism. Paul tells the housemates later on that they have earned their trip after all of their hard work. The housemates are even more excited when they discover that they have won a trip to go to Costa Rica.
