Gilbert told her fellow co-stars that she would not be facing her fear of a cinderblock being broken on her stomach during their "Face Your Fears" week. "Before we go I just want to say I'm actually not going to do the dare," she said. "I was scared to do it and I really believe in facing your fears," she continued, "but I actually can't do the dare because I'm pregnant."

"The people picnicking next to us pull out string instruments from under the blanket, walk over and they start playing [The Cure's] 'Lovesong.'"
