The World Championship got
brutal during the Gates of Hell challenge.
Yeah!
The UK's Zara and Wes won the challenge.
At the nominations, Argentina's Benja and Jodi
and the UK's Tristan and KellyAnne
were nominated for possible elimination
against Challenge losers, Argentina's Rodri and Nia.
Wes and Zara chose Benja and Jodi
to go against Rodri and Nia.
After a very messy elimination,
Argentina's Benja and Jodi came out victorious.
We're down to 12 teams representing...
All going for the coveted title
of Challenge World Champion.
Welcome to "The Challenge"!
Vamos, Argentina!
all: Argentina! - Whoo!
Little by little...
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! all: Oy, oy, oy!
- Come on! - Aussie!
- Oy! - Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!
all: Oy, oy, oy! - All day!
Let's go, UK. You got this.
Let's go!
Whoo!
I am here to work.
USA!
all: USA! - Team USA is fired up.
Damn!
all: USA!
all: Argentina!
Aussie! all: Oy!
UK!
Hey, guys!
- Well done. - Thanks.
- Well done, Benja. - Thank you, man.
We need to start changing things for Argentina
'cause it's kind of boring,
like going all the time against the last Argentina--
Tristan and KellyAnne.
Exactly. It's time for a change.
- It's another day. - Another day at the office.
Whole thing start changing, man.
Yeah?
Having dyslexia as a kid has progressed into my adult age,
and it's something I still struggle with,
but I've been brain training.
I don't do anything halfheartedly.
Being partnered with Wes,
there comes a target on your back,
and I knew that, getting into this.
But anyone who's against him is against me,
so bring it on.
It's very important for me to represent
the koalas and all the kangaroos,
because I love Australia, man.
I grew up on my man Crocodile Dundee.
I'm gonna stay under the radar as much as we can.
I'm not gonna stick my neck out and get me and Kiki
cut up in the game this early.
We've got some good numbers with the U.S. guys.
Danny--he's really looking after us, man.
I love the fact that we've got
a semi-alliance with the USA guys.
Sarah and I have a very good connection in this game.
Grant's relationship with Danny--
they get on really well,
and I think that we need
to keep this strong friendship going.
Ridiculous.
Fucking house is always a pigsty.
She's an airhead, man.
For fuck's sake.
Kiki's good at what she does
and, deep down, wants to do good
and make sure everyone's happy, but I'm a bit worried,
because I think people can pull Kiki in different directions.
She's just being a bit odd,
and, like, that's the thing about Kiki.
Kiki doesn't give you straight up.
Carrying on like a fucking pork chop.
I'm feeling a little bit shirty
with my Australian team,
as a lot of chitter chatter goes on without me around.
If 80% of their strategy talk doesn't include me,
then it's about me.
We don't need all this little side hustle going on.
Let's just win, not get last, and stick together.
Yuck.
Do you think that it's gonna be the same two names?
Representing the UK-- Tristan and KellyAnne.
Representing Argentina-- Benja and Jodi.
Obviously, I would like to rock the boat.
What I don't want to have happen
is one of them loses, and instead of scrambling,
if you and I, for example, had a secret third name
in our back pocket...
and then the second that one of them loses or wins...
I'm the biggest threat.
Like, let's be honest with ourselves.
Zara is one of the best partners I've ever had.
She is fearless.
She's obviously incredibly strong,
and I don't want the precedent of big teams
going into elimination,
because that would put me in their crosshairs.
In the first one.
From day one, I felt there was a rift
between Kiki and the Australians.
Who orchestrated that?
The plan was always using Kiki as a pawn.
Kaz and Kiki are not our numbers.
We could swing the Argentinians to vote in Kiki.
That's the crack that we needed.
Emily and Yes are a strong team,
and Team Australia needs to be broken up,
but when it's this early in the game,
nobody wants to be the one to pull out their swords first.
You're playing with the Legends now,
and the Legends come to play.
So Wes and I need to work together
to get Team Australia out.
Got it?
Got it.
At this point, we have to look at separating big teams.
So you think that would be the one?
Emily and Yes.
Right now, especially on Team USA,
there has been a lot of concern
from especially Danny and Sarah
about the ties that especially Tori and myself have
with other players in the house,
i.e. Wes, Jordan.
There is gonna be a point in time
when the rubber's gonna meet the road.
Things are gonna get pretty heated.
Again, we stick with the boring,
but knowing that that's a third option,
we just keep it a secret.
For all we know, we can ride these two people
for another two cycles.
One of us need to win.
One of us have to win.
We just got to start taking control,
'cause I don't think we need to be "playing safe."
And, "Oh, it's just easy to say so-and-so's name
'cause they've already been in"--no.
Like-- - I want to see--
It's like Grant said-- me, Grant, you, Troy.
That's the final I want to see.
- Yes. - Not the same fucking guys
that's already--so... - Right.
The Legends have all these relationships,
and they want us to play based off the relationships
that they've built, but I think
that if the MVPs stick together,
USA and Australia will be able to make whatever moves we want
and control this game.
And especially, like, how they're playing so safe.
We've had our foot on the gas
this whole time, and we took it off on this last one
because they convinced us to play safe.
The Legends keep trying to bank on this--
"Just trust us, trust us.
We have experience. We know what we're doing."
They just want the power, and they want to control,
but enough's enough.
You guys need to compromise with us moving forward.
For being Legends,
I'm surprised y'all are scared to play the game.
- How is it in here for you? - I feel good.
Is it easier playing with her?
It's different.
This is my first season playing this game
without Nany.
Yes!
I'm gonna kill this poor girl.
We're at a age where we want to start building a family,
and so that's what I would love to do
with that money, 'cause I hear kids are "espensive."
So my priorities are to focus on this game
and go full force
and make it to the end and win this thing.
But at least you still have, like,
close people in here. - Yeah, yeah.
You have a great partner, dude. You have a great partner.
- How do you feel about Ben? - He's like a big-ass kid, man.
He is. Like, I was nervous
just 'cause of how things played out the last time,
'cause there's a lot of paranoia within "Survivor."
On "The Challenge" USA,
Danny, Sarah, and I always had our issues with Ben.
Ben is kind of a wild card.
Sometimes he's flip-floppy.
On "Survivor," I built an alliance with Sarah.
I trust her, and I know that she trusts me.
What I would need from you guys is,
if one of the "Survivor" girls wins
that you won't try and go after me or Alyssa.
I don't want, like, it to get out to Sarah.
Ben has been attached to Angela's hip.
If he makes a messy bed, he has to lie in it.
With Ben, I don't know what game he's playing, bro.
- I don't think he knows. - It ain't "The Challenge."
I feel like he's not the most trustworthy.
'Cause I was hearing
that he can be kind of, like, hard to work with.
You can tell him over and over, like,
"We got you," you know, but, like,
if you walk past him one day and you don't smile
because, you know, you're just in your zone or whatever,
he'll be like...
- He'll get paranoid. - "Are we okay?"
You know what I mean? - Mm.
So...
You guys, as far as, like,
past relations--Whatever.
You guys are all... - It doesn't matter.
- Good? - Yep.
Last season was totally visceral
and totally different. - Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
And I let them do their thing,
and I didn't want to be caught up in that.
I'm not bringing that baggage in this game.
I'm not rocking the boat. - Okay, yeah, I know.
Like, people put me as a wild card...
Yeah.
When I'm one of the most loyal people
you'll ever meet, as long as you reciprocate.
I'm the same way.
I have a fucking bad reputation
for things I've done in the past,
but every move I've made,
there's been a justifiable reason for doing it.
Right. I know the girls are weary of me
because of what went down on USA,
but, like, there's no concerns.
Yeah.
It does not benefit my game...
- Yeah. - At all.
I love, you know, USA,
but I want to win this game.
I just have to think what's best for me and Kaycee.
In these games,
you have to be a little selfish
and protect your own rear end,
especially this early in the game.
Right now we have numbers. - Mm-hmm.
We have experience and you and Kaycee...
- Yeah. - And Tori.
Honestly, I do play a straightforward game,
and that's why a lot of people don't like having me around.
Darkness is afraid of the light, man.
Yeah, yeah, for real.
I won a lot in "The Challenge: Australia,"
and so far, I've won nothing.
I just want to win again.
At this point, winning is the best.
You don't have to say anyone's name.
The house says someone's name.
The only thing you have to do is pick between two pairs,
so, yeah, don't come in last.
No one wants to go in elimination.
All right, everyone, welcome to your next event
here on "The Challenge: World Championship."
Today's challenge is called Flying Around.
We have four huge excavators out there,
and one of you from each team
is gonna be flying around on the end of that 30-foot arm.
You're gonna be hauling ass, all right?
While your partner is at a station,
throwing giant rings to you.
You're gonna be catching those rings
and depositing them into a bin in the middle.
Each team will be assigned 50 rings of a specific color,
so score as many as you can in the bin.
The team to deposit the most rings in that middle
will win today's challenge,
be the only team safe from elimination,
and also be choosing one of those two nominated teams
to send into the arena against today's losers.
Oh, yeah, one more thing--
I know it's hot out here, and you need some energy,
so each and every one of you is gonna get a giant smoothie
that you must finish within two minutes,
and you're not allowed to throw up.
What?
There's penalties for both of those, all right?
So good luck.
All right, everyone ready?
Go!
Good job! Get it down!
What the fuck is that?
- Stop. - Yeah.
My thought process is, "Put the thing down
and just get up on the contraption
and knock out 40 points or more.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
That's not very smart. You always drink the drink.
You just got to drink it, like...
The strategy is to just not take any penalties at all,
because you just never know.
There's just so many different variables
that, like, it's not worth it.
I don't think I'm gonna--
You got it all over your face.
In fact, I could drink some more.
That's it. There you go!
Get it down!
Wes and Zara, the penalty for not finishing your smoothie
is five points deducted off your final score.
Throwers, get to your stations.
All right, go!
Fuck!
Oh, damn! It's hard!
Higher!
Forward. - Grant.
Grant got one. - Grant got one.
- Higher. - Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Look at Wes!
Good job, Justine!
Whoo!
My man Wes made a horrible decision.
Wes and Zara may be going into elimination.
This is actually perfect,
because if the bigger players are out of the game
and it makes it easier for me to win,
I'm open to that.
Higher and earlier!
Okay. Sorry, too low!
Ah!
Use the wind! Wait, wait, go!
"Wait until I go! Wait until I say!"
There's something about necking a pint full of garlic
and chili and then spinning around at top speeds
that does something to one's communication skills.
Now!
Yeah!
Go!
Get the fuck out of here.
What? Nice throw! Look at that!
- Bananas is crushing this. - Yeah, he's--
- Justine, too. - Ah.
Three. Just want to stop.
Last one.
Make it count! Make it count!
- Did we get any in the bucket? - One, maybe two.
I'm so disappointed in Zara and Wes.
If me and Jordan don't win today,
I could possibly go into elimination against Zara,
and I feel sick.
Weston Bergmann-- for somebody who literally
is the self-proclaimed
puppet master of "The Challenge,"
he screwed the pooch on this one.
We're going in.
All right, everyone ready?
Go!
- Go! - Let's go, guys!
Wes and Zara have a negative.
If we finished our drinks,
we knew we weren't coming in last place--
a strategic error on Wes's part, for sure.
Yeah, yikes.
That big brain overthought, I think.
Yeah.
Incoming!
See that?
Yeah, like a champ. Nice.
Good job, honey.
We're not getting last now.
- Oh, 'cause of negative-- - Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Holy...
- So now no pressure. - I didn't even realize that.
- Yeah. - Theo and Sarah,
the penalty for throwing up the smoothie is two points
deducted from your final score.
Throwers, get to your stations.
Ready, go!
Right... now! Throw it fast.
- Oh! - Ah!
I got it.
Oh, no! Wait, wait, wait, no,
wait, wait, wait.
Oh, shit.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. - Aw.
Some of these girls can't throw for shit,
but I definitely can-- just like a right hook.
- A who? - A right hook.
But you left-handed.
Yeah, I can throw a right hook
just as well as I can throw with my left hand.
- Oh. - Now!
Fuck!
Perfect!
I know that we're not coming in last,
'cause I just saw Wes and Zara get negative points.
Yeah.
This can be huge for us.
I think that we could possibly make
a play from this.
Wes, you done fucked up.
I can't do my left arm. Am I too early?
I don't get last place in dailies.
I'm just trying to stay calm.
God dang.
Not drinking the smoothie was the wrong decision.
Sooner, throw sooner!
There's a rhythm to it,
and I'm just trying to get all the rings
into Kaycee's hands at this point.
And you were getting them to me.
They were definitely getting 'em to me.
Now me trying to get it in the bin...
Is a whole nother story.
Ah!
Nice, Kaycee!
Ah!
Come on, now. Awesome throw, Jodi!
You have it! You have it!
Good work, Benja!
Okay, Kobe, let's go!
I have one track, and that is winning.
I thought I was showing up for the Super Bowl.
We're playing high-school ball right now.
Danny's like, "Hey, let's make some big moves,"
and I'm all for it,
because that's the only way
that we're gonna keep ourselves safe.
Last one! Make it count, baby!
Yeah, Kaycee! Aw.
All right, everyone ready?
Go!
This girl Kiki takes off chugging this shit,
and I'm like, "Goddamn, girl, slow down."
Now that the game's getting a bit more serious,
we're gonna want to start to win.
She got me looking like a motherfucking punk.
Shh.
- Done. - Well done, Kiki.
I've been sick the past few weeks.
I'm trying to hold it together.
I have a partner that I'm also trying to look after
and I have to protect,
but I already know we're gonna have a problem.
With Wes and Zara in the bottom,
a lot of the house are chomping at the bit
to put us in there against them, so that way,
they know, no matter what, Wes or Jordan goes home.
I mean, that is the last thing I want to do--
go against my best friend in here.
We definitely want to win.
Come, Amber.
Come, Amber, you got this. Come on.
- Good job! - That's my boy!
It's half a million dollars, come on.
- Finish it, Amber! - Come on, it's half a million.
Get it down. Come on. Keep going, keep going.
Vomit if you have to. Swallow it.
Vomit if you have to.
All right, that's it.
Bad luck.
Fuck.
I think that'll put us behind the eight ball a bit.
I feel so upset. I'm just upset with myself.
It's not the end of this challenge.
Like, we can still score lots of hoops
and come back from this.
Amber, you threw up and didn't finish the smoothie.
That's a total of seven points
deducted from your team's final score.
Ooh, sorry!
Throw it out there!
Yep.
Whoo!
- Nice! - Oh, wow!
Kiki's left-handed?
Kiki out here like Tom Brady.
She threw a fucking bullet.
Stop cussing. I know I'm cussing too much.
No, no, it's okay.
- Now? - Right, yeah.
Troy got it.
Okay, good.
A little lower.
Come on, get it to me!
Oh, see, now we got a rhythm!
Come on, you got to make those!
And... pull!
Kiki's all about hair and makeup
and just, you know, well put together,
but this girl has that fire.
I'm scared of Kiki.
Kiki's a badass bitch.
Last one!
Did you make any?
Great challenge today, everyone.
Well done.
The two bottom teams were Ben and Kaycee
and Wes and Zara.
However, the one team that did the worst...
Was the UK's Wes and Zara.
I'll be seeing you in the arena.
I kind of love that Zara and Wes came last,
because when there's a strong player down there
for an elimination,
why not put in another strong player
and see who survives out of that?
It would feel insane,
taking out a massive player in this game.
The two top teams-- Team Australia--
Darrell and Kiki absolutely killed it.
And doing it for the Americans,
Bananas and Justine absolutely killed it.
I feel like they owe it all to the throwers,
'cause Justine and Kiki, I mean, wow.
However, the one team to get it done...
Kiki and Darrell. - Yes!
Hey, Kiki smashed this shit.
So, if it wasn't for her, we wouldn't get this W today.
I hate to see when people try to pick on a weaker link
and try and dismantle a whole country.
It doesn't sit with my integrity really well,
so I just want it to be a fair fight
regardless of who we choose to put into the elimination.
- So when Darrell and Kiki-- - Oh, I'm relieved.
Yeah, I'm pretty relieved.
I feel like Darrell and Kiki definitely won't pick us.
Wes and Zara lost, and, you know,
we're starting to think, you know,
maybe we can make a play off that.
Now, everyone else, head back to the house
and nominate two more teams for possible elimination.
One of those teams will be chosen
by our winners, Darrell and Kiki,
to go against Wes and Zara.
All right, see you soon. Get out of here.
- Yay! Good job, everybody! - Good job, guys.
The fact that Darrell and Kiki,
an Australian team,
have won and have power
and Wes and Zara, a UK team,
have lost and are automatically in the arena,
you can bet your ass
that Australia is coming for Jordan and Kaz.
Team Australia will not have a vote at nominations.
This would be the perfect time
to put two Australian teams in there
and potentially send one home.
We've got to break this Australian four-piece up.
There are moments in my life
where I believe that God is looking out for me.
It makes sense for us to consider
putting Jordan up against Wes.
Good for me--good player going into elimination
and maybe going home.
Ooh, that was a close one!
Thank God we're home.
My quarterback. My quarterback!
- Good job today! - Got that quarterback in now.
Good job, mama.
- Darrell... - Good job.
Another win for the Aussies is fantastic.
We love that, even if it is Kiki.
Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?
I know that we're safe.
And so here we go. Team Australia, watch out.
With Wes going in,
he has a great shot at fucking winning.
Yeah.
So now is the time to take out a big team.
I agree, 1,000%.
Like, it would be stupid to send the same two teams in.
So now we're kind of seeing
a shift in strategy,
just based on the fact that Wes is in the bottom.
The best option would be to throw in two Aussie teams.
Breaking up the Australian alliance
would be good for our game,
and it would assure that a strong team was going home.
With Darrell in power
and if you have Yes and Emily and then Jonna and Grant,
he's not gonna vote for Yes.
It's gonna be Jonna and Grant going in there
against Wes and Zara.
Well, damn.
- Yeah. - Just my opinion...
We got a chance to knock another UK team
out of this game. - Mm-hmm.
It's a good time to do Aussie and UK.
- Okay, yes. - Which would be Jordan...
- Okay. - To go against Wes.
If a Australian is next to a UK,
then Darrell and Kiki won't vote in the Australians,
so Jordan and Kaz will automatically go in,
to which Grant says, "I will volunteer to go in."
- Yes. - Yeah.
Yeah. - That's cool.
I just want to make sure-- I'm fine with it.
Like, at the end of the day, it is what it is--I get that.
You're guaranteeing that one of the best players
in the game goes home.
Tori's not gonna let that happen.
She can't stop it from happening.
How?
The only way it happens is if you and Kaycee decide
that y'all vote for against the plan,
and then y'all vote in a way
that helps somebody else get in.
So I'll you right now, honestly,
like, they're thinking two Australians.
You want to do two Australians?
I think it makes sense.
- I know you can't trust Jonna. - I know you can't trust Jonna.
Listen, she's more trustworthy than Johnny is.
I'm just going with whoever presented something to me.
KellyAnne's trying to get me to vote with her and Bananas,
and that's great, but I feel like
I can also be safe working with the Australian side.
This is a vote to help both of you as well.
That's what we were wondering.
- Yeah. - Do you guys want--
I mean, that's what I'm saying. Like, it's either--
you guys have gone in the last two times.
So, if you don't want to go in again,
you should probably vote the way everyone else is voting.
I know that if I joined Johnny's alliance
on the USA side that I'm at the bottom.
As soon as they can get rid of me, they will.
The USA people have not talked to us at all
about working with them.
It's just out of desperation, because they know
that if we work with the Australians,
we have the numbers.
I will do what I have to.
Don't let him bully you into that.
He's not a bully.
I'm not gonna get bullied by either side.
Both sides are fucking assholes.
Hopefully this slows the roll
on my and Tristan's name being said...
Representing the UK, Tristan and KellyAnne.
KellyAnne and Tristan.
Because it's easy to say Jonna and Grant's name.
Not only did Jonna not want to give me a heads-up
that she was going to put me in...
Tristan and KellyAnne, I'm sorry, guys,
but you's are going in.
But she lied to me
and told me there's no way she would.
I just--I can't get over that.
I won't get over that.
- I feel the heat. - Why?
'Cause I think it's gonna be me.
- It's gonna be what? - I think it's gonna be me.
- You? - Mm-hmm.
No, why? Who said?
Um...
I just know KellyAnne's trying to, like, rally people for it,
and all of USA will not even talk to me, so...
Kiki's not gonna put any Aussies in.
- Are you sure? - Yeah.
- Positive? - Yeah.
- Okay. - Yeah.
I mean, I don't think Darrell would either, but...
No, I don't think either of them would.
Hi. both: Hi, guys.
Do you guys know what they're doing?
Have no idea.
I've been hearing all kind of random shit.
Same. This is a game we're in it for.
You know what I mean? We have to play it.
Fun challenge today, y'all.
- Do you want to talk? - Yeah, go ahead.
Yeah, shit time.
Our first vote will be going to Jordan and Kaz.
Our second vote will be for Sarah and Theo.
Look, this has been a tough one coming back.
Our first vote is gonna go for Emily and Yes.
And our second vote is gonna go for Grant and Jonna.
We're gonna go with Yes and Emily
and Grant and Jonna.
We're gonna throw another shrimp on the barbie.
Yes and Emily and Grant and Jonna.
I was sweating like a bricklayer in Baghdad,
but Danny's given us his word,
you know, backing Team Australia.
From last week,
I'm just gonna return the favor on Troy and Amber.
Our second vote's gonna be for Jonna and Grant.
What we're gonna do is we're gonna put
Grant and I up as a smokescreen
and then we're gonna put Jordan and Kaz in,
because obviously Kiki and Darrell won't vote
for Grant and I,
but I've seen these plans go terribly wrong,
and not to mention,
who knows what people in power will do?
Everyone is out to save themselves
and protect themselves,
and they will do it at any cost.
I've played this game a lot of times.
Burn votes can get you fucking sent in,
'cause if more than one person burns on you...
So be very fucking careful about burning votes, man,
'cause you might send in someone
that you're not expecting to, so...
Okay, our votes are gonna go
for Jordan and Kaz
and Jonna and Grant.
We have this alliance between Australia and USA,
but if you start having too many alliances,
you forget who your actual alliance is.
From hearing the names that have been going around,
we're voting for Yes and Emily.
And then next vote will be for Grant and Jonna.
I talked to Ben multiple times.
He said he's good voting for Jordan and Kaz.
If there's an opportunity,
we all need to nut up and be like, "Let's do it.
Yeah, and send--
- Don't be fucking scared. - Yep.
If we stay Aussie strong and U.S. strong,
then we'll have numbers in the middle ground.
- Yeah. - That's where the power's
gonna come from.
And I know you got my back. - Yeah, yeah.
And now that whole plan has gone out the window.
And I think he may be going over to the Legends' side.
Team USA, we might be perceived as stronger,
but in reality, underneath that white paint
is still brick and mortar with some 2x4s.
All I did was kick a 2x4.
Let's just start rebuilding. I don't really care.
Obviously, vote one, Jordan and Kaz,
you voted for us.
Ben and Kaycee, our second vote's for you guys.
Just returning votes.
What are you "shadying" around about there?
What am I saying?
Well, you guys and Troy in the bottom.
That's all I'm saying.
Ben's whispering round the room,
saying that apparently
we're at the bottom of the barrel or something.
But I have to stick with my country at the moment.
I can't be the first one
to betray on what I think is a theory.
Something shady happen here. both: No.
What's going on?
Who the fuck is this dude wearing a fucking cowboy hat?
Ben is definitely manipulating Troy and Amber
to swing their votes.
He's just a shady-as-fuck dude.
That there was a bit fucking shady--that's all.
No, I was just letting Troy in
on a little information-- that's all.
Yeah, of course you guys are saying that,
but I got to protect my Aussies.
- Of course, yeah. - You know what I mean?
Like, my hands are tied.
Do I trust Ben? No.
He interprets things or scenarios,
and his paranoia takes over
and morphs them into something that it's not.
You can be making the right move,
and he perceives it as the wrong move,
or you could be making the wrong move,
and he perceives it as the right move.
So it is very volatile,
and it's hard to dissect.
Come on, everybody wanted to be on "The Challenge."
Now you on "The fucking Challenge"!
Let's go!
We're gonna go for Jordan and Kaz
and Grant and Jonna.
It's just weird things happening in this nomination.
What we thought was a clear shot at Jordan and Kaz isn't,
and I'm just doing exactly what I got told.
Right now Jordan and Kaz are even with Emily and Yes,
and if we don't decide to vote for Emily and Yes,
then we are indirectly gonna throw Jordan in.
So we can't just burn them,
but we don't know what's gonna happen if they tie,
but right now we can just nip it in the bud,
and we can just vote that way.
If your ex-fiancée was here, I would help you save her.
So it's gonna be us going into elimination.
Do you want to die on that cross?
Benja and Jodi, KellyAnne and Tristan.
Are you serious?
That's what you want to do right now?
- Mm-hmm. - Really? Okay.
My fucking eyes are about to explode out of my head.
Like, for the record, you knew about our alliances.
Why would we get rid of somebody
who's going to look out for us?
This is just a fucking mess.
"Stalemate"?
What does that mean?
So a stalemate comes,
and I'm willing to die on that sword,
because I gave the Australians my word,
and I will not turn my back on Grant this quickly.
What the fuck does that mean?
They didn't come to an agreement.
They haven't come to an agreement?
- What the fuck is that? - Is that a joke?
Is that a joke?
Oh, shit.
How could you not come to an agreement?
There's, like, so many people upstairs.
Stalemate?
Okay, TJ, what have you got in store for us?
Didn't know we were in a game of chess.
We was basically going in, literally.
- That's how close we got by. - By the skin of our teeth.
Right now we don't know which way it's gonna go,
but we're not in elimination-- that's for sure--yet.
It's a fucking game, you guys!
Jesus Christ!
This isn't fucking life and death!
I think that Bananas dude is gonna be very upset
because he was trying to conduct that
and push that forward, and it didn't fall into his lap.
So hat's off to you, Danny.
You're an absolute legend, man.
And, like, suck shit, Tori. You didn't get your way, mate.
All I hear is people saying,
"I don't want to play the game."
Listen, when you play Monopoly, you got to roll the die.
You got to do what the die says.
I don't know that Danny truly understands
what happens when we stalemate in this game,
because TJ does not take kindly
when we can't come to a decision.
Dude, come on, we've never done it like this before.
- What the--what happened? - What is stalemate?
It says "stalemate" on the computer.
Tori and Danny can't come to a decision together.
And also, people are burning their votes.
And people are burning votes.
Interesting. All right.
Well, who really shit the bed on politics up here?
It would've been nice to see.
I do. All right, of course.
Well, then we've got to be like this.
Oh, now we're fiancées.
- Are you serious? - Yeah, baby.
Will you marry me?
- For real? - Yeah.
Shut up. Yes.
You're trying to convince us to play a game for $500,000,
and screw whatever we want or what's best for our games,
but their former engagement
is supposed to trump everything else.
So now I can't vote for you ever...
ever... both: Ever in this game.
Even if we break up... both: It's okay.
I'm sorry. You're stupid.
Like...
you shouldn't be here.
Darrell and I have already had a discussion,
and we don't trust anyone else
in our team apart from you and Troy.
Yeah.
Danny and Grant are really close.
Did Danny put Grant in or no? - No, Danny refused.
Yeah, and that's-- You know what I mean?
Like, some of their alliances are really strong.
I mean, it's clear as day
that you see Emily and Sarah...
- They've got their alliance. - Because even today,
Sarah said, "I need to burn to not say Emily's name."
Yeah, but, like, I don't know how much
I can trust Grant and Emily.
Grant and Emily are really close on the outside.
Their alliances are stronger.
Are you in that? - No, no.
That's what I mean. Like, I'm protecting them.
- Yeah. - Down the line,
they may not protect me back. - Right.
Grant and Emily have kind of been steering the ship
a little bit for Team Australia,
but I think they might need a little reminder--
Troy and I won "The Challenge: Australia."
Who the hell do they think they are
calling the shots on us,
the winners who really deserve to be here?
I need to remember, like,
in the future, if I save you guys, are you not gonna
all gang up on me and fucking get rid of me?
Well, that's what happened when they put you in.
- First elimination. - That was Emily's idea.
- Are you fucking kidding me? - That's between you and me.
But, yeah. - Well, fuck it.
Oh, I'm pretty sure it was, you know?
- It sounds pretty sketchy. - I think that was sketchy.
And then apparently Grant's been talking shit
about Troy behind his back. - Mm-hmm.
So we're starting to see
that maybe our team might be imploding.
and I don't know how much to believe, yeah.
Okay, this gives me anxiety. - I know.
I just had a double coffee.
That was probably not smart.
We need to figure out
how we can all get on the same page.
I think the only problem with that is...
Ben has done pissed the Aussies off,
and he's pissed me off.
Ben has already proven his loyalty
to ride the Legends' coattails.
It just makes me mad. Like, we were so close.
Like, I really thought he was gonna be different
and, like, stick by his word.
He's the messiest.
Basically, Ben has dug himself into a grave now.
You have now painted a target on your back.
So, before you came in here,
you said that you and Sarah
are not all, you know, that close.
But coming in here, you're like,
"Okay, cool. Let's stick together."
- Right. we're Team USA... - Yeah.
Is what I was telling them.
Like, I can put my differences aside.
But then, like, all this stuff started taking place.
So I'm sick of it. - Yeah.
Keep it cool. - Yeah.
Right? Less is more.
- Mm-hmm. - We don't need
to over-politick. - Yeah.
And we fucking just be cool, calm.
Let them fucking blow the fuck up
and go after each other and just, kind of, like--
- Yeah. - We can still make it work.
Yeah.
Justine, Sarah, and Danny are really cool,
and I know that they're not all that close to Ben,
so that makes me and Ben the bottom of the USA team,
and we know that,
so we will move accordingly.
Danny said, "Man, I'll give you an answer about Ben."
He's like, "I wouldn't trust him
as far as I could throw him," and I said, "Fuck."
That's an easy vote for me now.
Ben and Kaycee every single fucking time now.
Oh, fuck, yeah.
But we just don't know what's gonna happen tonight.
Just all depends on tonight. both: Yeah.
- Tonight's massive, yeah. - What TJ says.
I don't know, fucking TJ--
man, this dude can do whatever he wants,
you know what I'm saying?
I feel like it's always nervous
when you're giving the reins to someone else.
We just have to talk to Kiki.
She doesn't need our bullshit.
She knows what's going on. - Yeah.
I trust her enough to make the right decision.
I can guarantee 99%
that Kiki's not gonna vote in an Aussie,
but there's that 1% where you're just like...
"Mm, maybe, maybe not."
I don't trust either of Emily or Grant.
They're in my team, but they're not my friends.
I've been shot in the foot by my own team,
and I'm never gonna listen to them again.
I'm a very proud Australian, and I believe that I embody it,
but at the same time,
they've been doing this behind my back now from day one,
so if it is up to us to choose a team to go into elimination,
everyone better watch out.
What did Grant do?
He's got his little alliances,
and we're always on the outside,
I thought that maybe because we're a country,
bygones would be bygones,
but I feel like him and Emily have got a vendetta.
You think they'll do it early, though?
I don't know. I don't fucking know.
It's too early. Later down the line, yes.
We'll dwindle down. - Yeah.
Shit's gonna happen.
That's why we are making these other alliances now.
- Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah. - And this is fine.
It just sucks, because as individuals
and as teams and people, I love all these people so much.
No, I know.
But, like, someone's got to fucking go.
Yeah.
How are you feeling?
I'm just gonna go give it my all tonight.
I'm not really worried. I'm quite excited...
Right.
Which is really weird,
because I've never done an elimination before.
Even though you don't know who you're going against?
Yeah, well, Russian roulette, baby.
You and I need to figure out
if it does come down to a vote tonight...
Mm-hmm.
Who we have numbers on 'em,
because I'm gonna rally people up,
because it's a good chance it's gonna be one of us,
which is so fucking annoying, because, like,
it's the first time that we were actually
not gonna be stressed out,
and we'll be stressed out again for the third week in a row.
It's like, can we just have one night
to not be fucking stressed?
And instead... - Mm-hmm.

Big congratulations to the Australian representatives,
Darrell and Kiki,
absolutely killing it at the last challenge.
On the other hand, we had a very poor strategy play out.
Wes and Zara from the UK had a very hard time,
so come on out, Wes and Zara.
Now is usually the time that I say,
"Bring out the two nominated teams
to be considered for possible elimination."
However...
for some reason, I don't have two teams here.
Since you all have failed
to use your democratic process
to nominate two teams
to be considered for possible elimination,
you're forcing me to invoke the stalemate rule,
which means...
the one team that is gonna send
one team down here...
Is Kiki and Darrell.
Oh, fuck.
For the first couple of rounds,
I was kind of keeping a low profile.
Now it's time for Darrell and I to strike.
Kiki, Darrell,
which team are you gonna send down here right now
to go against Wes and Zara?
That stalemate means all they asses is on the line,
so that's they fault they couldn't figure it out.
Well, I mean-- It's a tough spot.
We don't know who to say, and so I guess we got to go with...
Anything can happen
when we have to invoke the stalemate rule.
Don't let it happen again.
Once there's a fracture in an alliance,
people will split that shit wide open.
Danny's not doing this again.
Isn't there a governor here?
Hey, Theo, you don't know my game, bro.
You don't know what I'm doing. - Don't care.
You're not special in terms of everyone else here.
Theo, you can shut the hell up,
or you come do something about it, bro.
Ready?
Let's go!
