Callum is gone, but will anyone else join him on a flight home?
Are U K?
Big T is getting tired of having her name tossed around in the game, so she decides to call her friend Kyle (yes, that Kyle) to clear her head, who insists that people are just saying her name because she’s so cool. Afterward, Corey apologizes for blindsiding Melissa last week. The conversation seems to go well, but as soon as the discussion is over, Melissa is back to insulting Corey.
Holding Down the Fort
The Challenge is called Tower of Power, and it’s played as teams. Each team has a tower, and they have 30 minutes to barricade it. Then, the teams try to break through the rubble surrounding the opposite team’s tower. First team to climb their opponent’s tower and raise the flag wins. Immediately, the teams fight for the chains in the rubble. According to Jay, this is how he won Take Shelter on Total Madness. Jay’s team gets all the chains, and the other team is carrying heavy objects over while Kyland spends all of his time tying a knot around the door. Then, the teams switch, and it turns out Jay was very correct. The ropes Kyland used are easy to untie, but the chains take more time. So, the team with Jay, Emanuel, James, Corey, Ravyn, Zara, Nurys, Moriah, and Berna wins.
Hard Facts, Easy Vote
After winning, it’s a pretty easy vote. They send Melissa into The Arena. She’s mad but tries to keep her composure. However, she doesn’t understand why it’s only her and Big T on the chopping block rather than saying Colleen’s name. Melissa confronts Moriah for info, but Moriah is tight-lipped. However, Moriah starts planting seeds. Why target Big T & Melissa when Colleen would sooner say Moriah’s name than the UK girls?
Making a Splash
The cast goes to the club, and Melissa is on the quest to get information. She wants to know who said her name first when selecting a girl for elimination, and she talks to Berna. Melissa starts bending the truth to get more info, but Moriah stops Berna from saying too much. Then, she talks to Ravyn, who insists that the vote was unanimous and she couldn’t have shifted the votes — especially because she hasn’t made a deal with Melissa yet. Melissa insists that Ravyn is a shady player, and the two start arguing. This escalates, and a fed-up Melissa throws a drink on Ravyn. Now, the drama is personal, and Big T worries the drama will impact her game.
New Day, Same Vote
At the deliberation, Ravyn is upset that Melissa threw a drink at her, but Melissa tells her that she talks too much. Then, even though Colleen’s name had been thrown around, and the fact that Big T tried to bribe Ed with cash, all the votes are given to Big T. So, once again, Big T and Melissa are going into The Arena.
Oh No, Let’s Go
At the Arena, Kaycee shows up. She screams “Let’s go” and at the draw, she pulls Big T’s name. The game is called Pole In The Storm because it’s raining at the Arena. It’s basically just Pole Wrestle, except the pole starts in the sand and the players need to pull it out. The first player to win two heats wins the elimination.
Pulling For the Win
During the first round, Kaycee keeps the pole close to her. Big T gets scrappy, but Kaycee gets the pole out of Big T’s hand. During the next round, Kaycee tries to stand up and snatch the pole, but Big T hangs on. They start wrestling, and eventually, Big T gets the pole out of Kaycee’s hands. So, now each girl has one point. In the final round, Kaycee stands up again. She’s more aggressive and jerks the pole out of Big T’s hands. This means Kaycee wins, and Big T is heading home, but not before getting a hug from TJ and he tells her he’d love to see her become a champion one day.
