THE LADIES OF OXYGEN'S 'PRETTY WICKED' REPORT FOR DUTY WHEN FORMER MILITARY INTELLIGENCE OFFER A LESSON IN TEAMWORK

Episode Premieres Tuesday, April 28 at 10PM ET/PT

New York, NY - April 27, 2009 - The ladies of "Pretty Wicked" are given the challenge of a lifetime on this week's episode, premiering Tuesday, April 28 at 10PM ET/PT, when they are tested on their ability to work as a team. Also, truths are revealed when several contestants face personal battles and delicate issues.

After an early morning wake up call, the girls are instructed to dress in workout gear and meet downstairs. Bleary-eyed and sleep deprived, the ladies are transported, in chilly weather, to an outdoor camp and introduced to a pair of former air force intelligence female officers. The officers inform the contestants that they will be emulating a real "search and rescue" mission, where teamwork is key. Needless to say, this challenge is physically and mentally grueling. Will the girls be able to work together without killing each other long enough to reach a common goal?

Also this week, a session with judge and psychotherapist Dr. Jenn Berman reveals alarming facts about two of the girls in the loft. Shocking disclosures are revealed about struggles with sexual identity, while one of the girls must face facts about a possible addiction and eating disorder. Will these ladies get the help and support they need from the other girls? Tune-in to find out!

Fans who can't get enough of their favorite "Pretty Wicked" girls will find exclusive photo galleries and personal pictures on Oxygen.com. The website also features the bad girls' personal blogs, where the ladies dish about what really happened and what never made it to air; exclusive episode outtakes; and a photo captioning contest, allowing fans to submit creative captions for new "Pretty Wicked" photos each week. Viewers can also weigh in with their thoughts about the show and the girls by participating in a weekly mobile poll from their cell phones or mobile devices.
