We missed out on her entire reaction to being blindsided.
It was extremely boring and upsetting knowing there could have been actual juicy drama included in the episode instead.
But on to the recap!
Credit: MTV
Josh still thinks he has a shot to get a red skull.
Oh honey, that time is long gone.
Meanwhile, the three remaining women without a red skull, a.k.a.
But Bayleigh keeps talking about how she doesn’t think she can do this without Swaggy.
I don’t see her going much further this season if the fight is already out of her.
Maybe it was never there?
Meanwhile, Nany and Kaycee’s “friendship” continues to grow.
They’re kissing each other’s hands.
They’re saying “I love you.”
But Kaycee has a girlfriend back home!
And the rest of the bunker is watching and talking.
Whichever team frees the red car the fastest, wins.
And then all seven members of the winning team will form the Tribunal.
Team 1: Jenny, Bananas, Nany, Aneesa, Rogan, Cory, and Josh.
Team 2: Kyle, Nelson, Melissa, Bayleigh, Fessy, Kaycee, and Dee.
Degree of physical difficulty:High.
They literally have to move cars with their hands!
For a long time!
This one looks insanely tough.
Degree of mental difficulty:N/A.
This is all physical.
Potential for drama:High.
This has got to be the final female elimination (right?
Finally the playing field is leveled with the order in which they compete!
Winner:Team 1: Jenny, Bananas, Nany, Aneesa, Rogan, Cory, and Josh.
Team 1 decides that Rogan of all people is going to be their puzzle master, which is insane.
He’s not exactly proven when it comes to puzzles, but okay.
Jenny thinks she solves it immediately in her head but no one listens to her.
Everyone on the team gets annoyed at her for talking and shushes her every time she opens her mouth.
Meanwhile, Rogan starts to panic and doesn’t know what to do.
This is infuriating to watch.
And then Aneesa sees a solution, but everyone keeps shushing her too.
Blatant sexism on display.
I’m not surprised given who some of these guys are, but I am extremely annoyed.
This team could have solved it so much faster if they had just listened to the women.
Or even let the women talk!
Even Kyle shouts out an idea and they listen.
This team is working together so much better…because they’re actually workingas a team.
The magic of editing!
Tribunal:Jenny, Bananas, Nany, Aneesa, Rogan, Cory, and Josh.
That means Nany is going into Purgatory against either Melissa or Bayleigh.
That means she’s going to screw over her formerBig Brotherally Bayleigh.
We immediately see some fireworks since Bayleigh is taking it personally while Kaycee is just playing the game.
Nominations
At nominations, Melissa gives her speech about wanting to go in.
Bayleigh won’t even look at her, crying with her eyes closed while Kaycee votes for Melissa.
Predictable but here we are!
After the nominations, Bayleigh freaks out and tells a producer she wants to leave.
She goes “backstage,” and refuses to be on camera.
And it’s really adorable to see!
she’s going to break them up by talking to the girlfriend about Nany.
Petty is not a good look!
We know it’s going to be Nany vs. Melissa.
But the interrogation does give us a quick scene of Jenny telling Dee she’s not coming after her.
The producers cut to a quick shot of Dee smiling/grimacing at Jenny.
At this point, these edits are hilariously awful.
What is this accomplishing?
Or is she just trying to cause some waves?
And then Bayleigh tells Nany that everything that’s happening (a.k.a.
the death of Bayleigh and Kaycee’s friendship) is all Nany’s fault.
That’s not how this game works!
She literally just said Kaycee’s reasoning for voting for Melissa instead of her!
Bayleigh threw down with Swaggy and Wes all season.
She’s taking this way too personally.
When Kaycee hears that Bayleigh had said they slept together onBig Brother, she immediately goes to confront her.
Why is she acting like this was her only shot at elimination?
She played this season wrong and she’s trying to retroactively hold people to promises that weren’t made.
She also walks past Nany and calls her a “lyin' ass hoe” and just keeps walking.
Wait, what did Nany lie about?
Bayleigh’s clearly just melting down and lashing out.
That sounds pretty accurate.
And just like we knew would happen, Nany chooses to go against Melissa.
Elimination challenge:Off With Your Heads.
Players put on jumpsuits with five red skulls attached in different spots.
Whoever rips off all five of their opponent’s red skulls first, wins.
Degree of physical difficulty:High.
This is a headbanger.
Degree of mental difficulty:N/A.
This is all physical!
Potential for drama:High.
This could be anyone’s game.
Winner:Melissa, knocking Nany out right before the finalagain.
You hate to see it.
Both women get a skull in the first, second, and third rounds.
In the final round, Melissa gets her fifth skull, beating Nany.
I wish this had been pole wrestle.
Says the rookie to thelongtimevet?!
Challenger of the week:Kaycee for keeping calm and making a good game move.
