It's Getting Down To Nut Cuttin Time

 is the 6th episode of Season 5 of Tough Enough. It is the overall episode.

Summary
The theme of the week is focus. The contestants are taken through a rope course that involves climbing, balance and focus during which Ivelisse falls off a rope they are expected to repel across when her injured leg gives out. She returns to the course, however, and finishes. Eric, however, does not. After collapsing mid-course due to lack of conditioning, Stone Cold has to send help up to lower Eric down in what he called "probably the most embarassing, crushing moment of my life." In the skills challenge, the contestants were expected to do squats on the top rope, then hold the squat position until only 4 were left. The remaining four (Ivelisse, Christina, Luke and Jeremiah) were to hold the squat position on the top rope while Eric and Andy ran the ropes to try and shake them. The two girls fell, sending Luke and Jeremiah into the final part of the competition, where they were expected to do a series of moves involving body slams and top rope elbow drops. Jeremiah got sloppy and Luke was declared the winner. AJ, Ivelisse and Eric were sent to the bottom 3. AJ was warned that he was "boring as watching grass grow" and told to pick it up. Ivelisse was cut, despite Stone Cold telling her he was sure she belonged in the ring, because her injury was keeping her from performing up to standards. Eric was also cut, due to lack of improvement in his conditioning. John Morrison guest stars.
