Spoiler Alert!
Hello people!
Back with a new The Challenge rant! (I know I still have a few American Horror Story ones to rant, I'm sorry for the delay).
Although this wasn't an epic episode, it was still a pretty exciting one and I'm still pretty happy with the direction this season is taking.
We start this episode with the not so surprising entrance into the game of Darrell and Veronic, which was way more anticlimatic than any of the other teams that came before them. I don't know if it's because it's already kind of late in the game or if it's because they aren't just as epic as Bananas or Jordan but I just felt like the shock wasn't as big with Darrell and Veronica. So much so that, spoiler alert, they are one of the teams to possibly go into elimination. I know it was all a plan, and I'll get to that, but still... I think that says a lot about how everyone else sees them in the game.
Getting into the actual daily challenge, this was an exciting one - and also one that was pretty hard to accomplish. Only two teams were able to finish it properly and those two were Jordan/Aneesa and Nelson/Nurys. And guess what?! Nelson finally won a daily challenge! I felt like they foreshadowed it so much during this season that it was about time this happened.
Post that, it was up to Nelson and Nurys to pick four teams to possibly go into elimination - and Olivia came up with the perfect plan! Not only Nelson didn't get any blood in his hands but also they tricked everyone into thinking that he was ruthless, by putting Olivia /Horacio for possible elimination.
But it was pretty obvious that it was Tommy and Analyse to go straight into elimination and, against them, that's when Olivia's plan came into play. Olivia and Horacio basically made a deal with Veronica and Darrell to save each other and Nelson asked Colleen and Kim to save Olivia. However, everything worked even better when Olivia and Horacio pulled the Safe dagger and so they didn't have to rely on anyone else. And they did kept their word and saved Darrell and Veronica and everything worked out well.
As far as the elimination goes... It was sort of simple - Kim and Colleen won easy because Tommy couldn't pull Analyse in order for her to do her part of the elimination. It was actually pretty sad to see Tommy try and try again and just not being able to do it. Plus, seeing him cry at the end... Really heartbreaking - like TJ said, that's when you know that meant so much to that person.
Well, that's basically it for this epsiode, to be honest. It looks like there won't be any more new teams added to the season so now things will start to really get complicated and it looks like the next episode is going to create some drama so... Let's see what happens. We didn't get much from the preview so I don't really have predictions. But let me know yours as well as your thoughts on this episode and I'll talk to you in my next rant!
Love,
Daniela.
