Four years after its debut, Season 6 of Too Hot to Handle is taking on a new challenge: The hit Netflix reality show, which aired its latest episode on July 18, challenges sex-crazed bachelors to abandon their biological urges and get real intimacy and commitment with a prize It is known for challenging them to take a chance. In the past, finding the prototypical cast of influencers has required a bit of subterfuge, and each season's premiere has had a twist: contestants who thought they were signing up for a more traditional “Love Island”-style romp are actually going up against Lana the sex cop robot! The twist was that the contestants, who thought they were signing up for a more traditional “Love Island”-style romp, actually ended up facing off against Lana, a sex cop robot. (Season 4 even featured Mario Lopez.)

But the contestants on “Too Hot to Handle” Season 6 know exactly what they are getting themselves into. Enter Bad Lana: a scheming AI cousin designed to encourage rule-breaking (and money-grubbing) behavior. Before we dive into new episodes of the popular reality series, read on for a breakdown of Bad Lana and other twists, including a new bunker, that will rock “Too Hot to Handle” Season 6.

The cast of “Too Hot to Handle” Season 6 knows what's coming when they enter the villa, so they get a brand new way to get a surprise. The first big surprise comes when they are greeted by Bud Lana, a matte black cone with red lighting and sexy American accents designed to “encourage humans to give in to their baser instincts.” With this new cone in charge, all violations of the traditional rules (kissing, heavy petting, self-gratification, and sex) will be fine-free. Just because Bad Rana's time means no fines does not mean no consequences.

Bad Lana dominates the lair for most of Season 6, Episode 1, giving all contestants a chance to explore their options. Atlanta girls Bri and Brit Charlie take the most initiative to pursue and kiss multiple people, so they become easy targets for Lana. At the end of the first night, the white and purple cones appear and two big announcements are made: the prize pool will be $250,000, the largest in the show's history, and two ill-mannered guests will be expelled from the retreat. Bri and Charlie bid an emotional farewell to Villa, but that doesn't mean they're gone for good.

Bri and Charlie are soon sent to a new area of the villa, which turns out to be a windowless guesthouse in neutral colors. As their biggest threat to their prize, Lana orders the two to wear blingy “prison uniforms” and stay there for 24 hours while counting piles of clips. If boredom isn't enough, Bri and Charlie stew over whether their respective crushes, Demari and Lucy, are being pushed around by someone else.

Soon, Bad Lana arrives and teases the two newcomers to the villa. The dark side robot shows them footage of Flavia and Louis flirting with Demari and Lucy, and offers to show it to Bri and Charlie for the low price of $5,000 each from the prize money. (Later that night, after Flavia and Louis have chosen their dates, Bri and Charlie spend another $5,000 to choose their partners. Neither Demari nor Lucy end up going on the date, so Bri and Charlie are let out of the bunker a few hours later and are able to see them again. But the prize money is also $15,000 lighter.

Outside of the major drama of the first two episodes of Season 6, Bad Lana is there to cater to the cast members' desires and insecurities and to deduct more money from their winnings. Her last big move since the first episode's demotion is to seduce Catherine and Louis in a private suite, offering them an array of toys and time for a half-price rule violation. Her appearance is a nice change of pace from the typical formula, but Bad Lana would have been more effective had the prize not been the weakest part of this show since the first season. If the most captivating star of each season doesn't care about the prize money, it loses its power.

Really, the original Lana is tougher. The bunker itself is her domain, and the second way she uses it in episode 4 is pretty brutal. When Demari and Catherine are chosen to date two new students (called “grenades”), their matches, Bri and Louie, are banished out of sight and (theoretically) out of mind. Bri has been banished twice in four episodes.

Is Bad Lana's presence only to remind us that the good Lana's ways are sometimes unethical? Will the changes in Season 6 finally break the “Too Hot to Handle” experiment?
