What if a reality show scene falls flat?

If something happens where you've set up a situation where it's either too easy, non-dramatic or it's too hard and people just can't do it, the general rule of thumb in reality is that you turn everything into story. If somebody can't do something because maybe it was set up too difficult, or it was just too difficult for them, then it has to be called into question whether not they have what it takes. If something is too easy, throw it out and don't use it, and put something else in. But generally speaking, you can turn pretty much anything into story.
