-Previously on The Challenge...
-Meow-meow's here.

There we go. (laughs)

-Meow.
-(both laughing)

Did I mention we have
a perfect Algorithm?

(laughter)

Motherfucker.

TJ:
Everybody got in mind

who they want
for their partners?

DESI:
There's a lot of people
that are like,

"Are they gonna be good

or are they gonna screw me?"

ALYSSA:
Dude, where are you going?

There's an emergency at home.
So I got to go.

That could fuck me up

because you could leave
and then I might have to.

Could you at least maybe
just meet in the middle here?

TJ:
Today's challenge is called
Wreck-reational Driving.

-Go!
-(air horn blows)

Left, left, left, left!

(yelps) No, stop,
stop, stop, stop, stop!

TJ:
Cayla and Domenick,

congratulations on winning
today's challenge.

SARAH:
Is this an opportunity to go in
and get my money?

Plus,

it makes Tyson then sweat it
a little bit.

Leo and Alyssa,
I'll be seeing you in the Arena.

All right, everyone,
welcome back to the Arena.

Domenick, Cayla,
I need you to select

one team to send into the Arena

to go against Leo and Alyssa.

So our vote
is for Kyland and Kyra.

TJ:
Kyland and Kyra, come on down.

Tonight, you're playing
Ball & Chain. Go!

KYLAND:
You have to step.

ALYSSA:
How many stripes
are on the US flag?

Leo, I can't.

-(Leo grunts)
-(air horn blows)

TJ: Congratulations,
Leo and Alyssa.

You have won, which
qualifies you to run my final.

LEO:
I'm excited. I got the money
I need to run TJ's final.

When I win that $500,000,

I can take it back home

and I'm gonna make sure
I take care of everyone.

Time for the Algorithm.

* *

But I'm tired of the Algorithm.

So tonight we're gonna
switch it up a little bit.

ANGELA:
What?

* *

The Algorithm is perfect.
Let's not get it twisted.

But I'm so tired
of hearing you complain.

(laughs)

From here on out,
this is an individual game.

(exclaiming)

TJ:
No longer will you have
teammates.

You only have one person,
and that is you.

TYSON: If it's just
an individual game

with the guys,
they're gonna start coming after

the big targets to eliminate
somebody that they don't think

they can beat in the final,
which is me.

I feel like I need to win again

and have some safety.

All right, so get out of here.

(whooping)

CAYLA:
Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.
(laughing)

Whoa!

BEN: It's not gonna be
nicey-nicey.

I might have to put myself
into elimination

and try to take someone out
that has a bunch of money.

* *

* *

* *

-(whooping)
-ALYSSA: Yeah!

LEO:
Let's go!

-(whooping)
-LEO: Let's go, let's go!

(cheering)

Bye, Algorithm.
We ain't sad to see you go.

I want to win on my own
or lose on my own.

Yeah, it's really sexy
to blame somebody else

for what happened in the game,

but I hate relying
on other people,

even though it worked out really
good when I couldn't swim.

It's still gonna be two people
for elimination.

-You don't think?
-I still think
it's just gonna...

I think it's gonna be one.

(sighs) That's what... That's
what it feels like for Survivor

-and that's what...
-DESI: Yeah.

Before, you maybe had
a level of protection

with a partner if they were
maybe in an alliance

that you were not with.

And that makes me
a little bit nervous.

Here's our opportunity
to show what we've got.

* *

Now,

your life in the game
depends only on you,

which is how I can accept it

-if I win or if I lose.
-Right.

Are you and Dom still thinking
the Survivors Strong?

DANNY:
The numbers say that we should.

If we have each other's back
and work to make sure

we're not going head-to-head...

that's a pretty basic plan
that we can accomplish

regardless of whatever
is thrown on our way.

On Survivor,
I was known for winning.

MAN:
Ben making quick moves.

-You're good, you're good!
-Yeah!

BEN:
Here on The Challenge,

I have expected to win
every challenge

and I have failed miserably.

So I have to work with Tyson.

He's a great competitor
and he's proven a winner.

Plus, I want to beat him
in the final

and win the money
and win the championship.

And I like doing things
the hard way sometimes.

As long as we're all
sitting out here,

reconnect and make sure
we have an agreement,

I think we'll be fine.

Ben is still down
with the Survivors Strong,

and if we all work together,
we can get to the final.

Sounds good,
but Ben, Sarah and I

don't have enough money
to be qualified for the final.

And if there's
an easy competitor

that is in my alliance,

then I would gladly take them on

and take their money
so I can get to the final.

That's just part of the game.

So I'm ready
to get this thing going.

* *

-CASHAY: Are you serious?
-Mm-hmm.

JUSTINE:
Wait, what?

CASHAY:
She's the only girl
that doesn't qualify.

She doesn't have her money yet.

SARAH:
Yeah.

If I have to go in,
I have to go in.

-You know? It comes down to...
-Yeah.

SARAH: This is what
I've been waiting for.

I came out here, obviously,

to play for myself.

You don't want to go

against me
because you will go home

if you go against me.

-We will see a Hall Brawl.
-CASHAY: Yo...

* *

(Leo snoring softly)

BEN:
I'm not sleeping.

It's not anything about
the beds or the pillows.

I was in the Marine Corps and...

This week is hard for me

because it's the anniversary
of, um, my buddy's death.

His name was
Michael Blake Wafford,

and we called him Blake, and...

He was a good guy.
He really was.

You, uh...
You just relive those moments

even if you're in
the middle of a challenge.

Yeah.

I've talked about this
with Sarah

and it's just nice having
a solid person,

someone who I can trust

and someone who
I have support from

in this house right now.

ENZO:
This is it.

I got to get a win.
Let's go, man.

Let's do it, bro.

I'm anxious.

It's the first
single competition

of the season

and, um... I need my money.

I got no money at this point.

DOMENICK:
I know I can win.

JUSTINE:
I'm gonna kill this.

ANGELA:
I'm gonna kick ass.

-TYSON: I'm gonna step up.
-CASHAY: I'm ready to go.

* *

(bell clangs)

* *

All right, everyone.
Welcome back to the water.

-(applause)
-BEN: Water.

(whooping)

TJ:
This is your first challenge

as individuals,

so anything that happens to you,

good or bad,

is 100% your responsibility.

Now, today's challenge,

you're going to be
Having a Blast.

To begin, you're gonna be riding
on the back of a Zodiac.

Then, you're gonna
get up to speed

with a tugboat
that is dragging two runways.

Those runways are also
covered in soap.

You will jump from the Zodiac
and onto one of those runways.

On the runway, there is a safe
and a key station.

Go to the key station,

grab a key,
race back to the safe,

plug it all the way in.

You'll repeat this process
three more times--

four keys in total--
grab a flag,

race it back to the key station.

Your time will be stopped.

So the fastest man,
the fastest woman

will win today's challenge,

receive $10,000 to split
in their Challenge accounts--

which qualifies you
to run my final--

and also be selecting one man
to send into the Arena

to go against today's loser,
the slowest male.

-Got it?
-DOMENICK: It's an individual

men's elimination day,

and all of a sudden,

we know the pressure is on

because there's not
many men left in this game,

and now I'm worried

that this could possibly be
the end of my game.

Oh, yeah, one more thing.

There's also gonna be
two other players

on the back of that tugboat

blasting you with water cannons.

(Leo laughing)

Yeah. This is awesome.

Just for fun.

CASHAY:
Take it easy.

Don't spray me in my eyes.

I think that's very rude
and it's very inconsiderate.

And I have contacts.

Good luck, everyone.

TYSON:
All the Survivor guys

seem like they want
to stick together,

but I feel like it's getting
a little dicey for me

at this point since I've been

the outright favorite
to win this thing

and everyone knows it.

So there's extra pressure

for me to perform well here.

There's people in the house
that, if they won,

I would be safe, but there's
also people, if they won,

I would definitely not be safe.

And so the best thing
I can do is win.

* *

* *

(applause and cheering)

-LEO: Let's go!
-CAYLA: Come on, Enzo!

DANNY:
Let's go, Ben!

I want my win.

I have no cash to qualify

for TJ's final.

The pressure is on,

and I need to get it now.

(cheering and whooping)

Ben the man is mine... Oh!

(yells)

SARAH: There is soap
on this platform and...

we're gonna try and spray
the platform

to get as much soap off
of it as we can

so the boys can run fast.

Fingers crossed that Ben,

he pulls this out
and gets his money to qualify.

TJ:
Enzo, Ben, ready?

-(air horn blows)
-TJ: Go.

Oh.

(cheering)

Yes.

-SARAH: Ben is moving.
-(cheering)

DOMENICK: Enzo, my guy,
doing this little baby step.

I don't know what happened.
He's bleeding from his leg.

-DANNY: Let's go!
-JUSTINE: Go, guys.

DAVID:
Let's go, let's go!

-There you go, Ben.
-Nice, Ben.

DANNY: Ben shoots off like
he's shot out of a cannon.

And you can tell that
he will be in the running

for first place
in this challenge.

-CAYLA: Good job, Enzo.
-Good job, Ben.

Pick up the pace if you can.

-Ben, water or no?
-No more.

Wow, look at Ben.

BEN:
It's a special day today

and it's my buddy's
anniversary

that he passed on and...

and I know he's gonna be
running this with me

and pushing me forward.

And so I need to win this
not only for myself,

but I need to win this
for Blake.

* *

SARAH:
Good job, Ben, push it!

Let's go!

CAYLA: Enzo,
pick up the pace.

SARAH:
Here we go, Ben, hurry!

Let's go!

Good job, Ben, yeah!

BEN:
Let's go. Let's go!

Yes. Yes! Come on, baby.

SARAH:
Nice, Ben, nice.

CAYLA:
Keep it up, Enzo.

There's still time.

BEN:
Last one, buddy.
Good pace. Good pace.

SARAH: Come on, Enzo,
let's go.

Let's go, buddy.

BEN:
You got this.

You're almost there.

Good job, buddy.

(applause and cheering)

Sarah is gonna beast mode
this shit, dude.

ENZO: Oh, she's gonna
beast mode it, bro.

BEN:
Imagine if Sarah wins
the girls, too.

-If it was me and Sarah...
-Yeah, that'd be dope.

That shit'd
be fuckin' dope, bro.

-BEN: People would be
shittin' themselves.
-Oh, hell, hell yeah, bro.

ENZO:
They're all rats.
They don't want us to win.

BEN:
Enzo's great.

He is my light out here.

Trying not to make friends
out here

was my goal, but I can't
help it with Enzo.

He's so fun.

I'm 'bout to be all...
(imitates water cannon)

(both laughing)

TJ: All right, Sarah, Cayla,
are you ready?

BEN:
Get 'em, get 'em.

-(air horn blows)
-TJ: Go.

-There you go. There you go!
-(cheering)

(contestants exclaiming)

Cayla's out!

-Oh, Cayla's down!
-Aw!

Oh, Cayla's in.

CAYLA: All I can do is,
like, laugh at myself.

I'm embarrassed. I'm sorry, Mom.

ENZO:
Say hello to my little friend.

BEN:
Get your rhythm.

ENZO: You got it, girl.
You got it.

SARAH:
I only have $2,500

and I need $5,000
to run TJ's final.

So a win is a must at this point

and I would really
like to get it

from a daily challenge than
having to go into an elimination

because that's how
you get sent home.

-Pick it up. There you go.
-Let's go! Push it!

ANGELA:
I have been trying to keep
my distance from Sarah.

She has not spoken one word
of game to me ever since

Tyson and Cash threw Sarah
into elimination.

This week we've decided
on Leo and Sarah.

ANGELA: Ever since then,
me and Sarah

have never gotten back
on the same foot together

and that's fine, because
it's easy to have one person

just to target the whole time.

ENZO:
Killing it. Go!

-BEN: There you go, Sarah!
-(Enzo shouting)

SARAH:
I literally get done

before I realize...
I'm like, "Where's Cayla at?"

* *

TJ: All right,
Tyson, Domenick, you ready?

-(air horn blows)
-Go.

DESI:
Get it, Dom!

-(whooping)
-SARAH: Go, Dom!

Yeah, they're not
spraying them, of course.

No one better spray me, either.

TYSON: Angela,
for reals, is the greatest ally

I've ever had
on any of these games.

Yeah!

* *

CASHAY:
You got it, Dom!

ANGELA: Come on, Tyson,
last one.

Good job, you guys.

CAYLA:
Tyson.

(contestants whooping)

Dom!

Boom!

Get it, Dom!

(applause and cheering)

TYSON:
See, I got the soap
all the way off right there.

I think it's definitely
gonna help.

Especially, like,
your angle right there.

DOMENICK: I don't know that
I'm good with Ange, though.

TYSON: You're good with me.
I'm good with you.

Number one goal here

for me is if I can win
to protect myself.

But if I can't win,

Angela is my number one ally

and if she wins,
she can also protect me.

I believe in the Survivor thing.

We're good.

All right.

DOMENICK: Angela is not
on my side in the game,

but Tyson thinks we should
give Angela an advantage

by spraying some of
the soap off of her barge.

I wasn't crazy about that idea,

but I had to show Tyson
I was a team player,

so I agreed to it.

It could come back and bite me.

-TJ: Cash and Angela. Go.
-(air horn blows)

* *

CONTESTANTS:
Oh!

TYSON:
Aim it at them.

-DANNY: Faster!
-DAVID: Let's go!

DOMENICK:
Nice job.

CAYLA:
Good job, guys.

(cheering)

SARAH: I don't want
to see Angela win.

I feel like she has had,
like, the easiest ride

in this game,

and she still hasn't
proven herself to be

the competitor
that people think she is.

Go faster!

Go, go, go!

Nice job.

TYSON: If I win this,
we're all the way good.

We don't have shit
to worry about.

That's what I want to hear.

TYSON:
This is the most vulnerable
position for us today.

-After today, we're good.
-After today, we're good.

Nice job, Cash!

(cheering)

TJ:
David, Danny, you ready?

-Go!
-(air horn blows)

DANNY:
I'm ecstatic. I don't have
to worry about anybody else.

If I lose, it's on me.

If Kiki was here,

she would tell me,
"Ain't nothing more important

than the moola.
Go get your money, baby."

JUSTINE:
Nice!

ALYSSA:
Good job, guys.

Let's get your money.
You got to move.

Nice.

David is, like, tiptoeing.
(laughing)

DAVID: I'm probably running
like a grandpa,

and I see Danny's moving a
little bit quicker, so I'm like

"All right, I got to move
so I'm not in last place."

ALYSSA: All right, Danny,
you're almost done, let's go!

(shouting indistinctly)

JUSTINE:
Last one, David.

-Come on.
-ALYSSA: There you go.

Let's go, Danny!

(Justine cheering)

Get it, get it.

He's so focused.
Look at his face.

(cheering)

All right, David.

(whooping)

-That shit fucked me up
a little bit.
-(laughing)

TJ: All right,
Justine and Alyssa.

-Are you ready? Go.
-(air horn blows)

LEO:
Oh, shit!

-Let's go.
-Let's go!

DAVID: Justine is one of the
best competitors in the house.

If Enzo's the top, Justine
is equally right up there.

How I would love
to see her in the final.

That's my elimination partner.
Let's go!

DANNY:
Good job, Alyssa.

JUSTINE:
No!

Why isn't this going in?

DAVID:
Good pace, good pace.

ANGELA:
I feel like Alyssa

really has proven herself
as a competitor.

She's won
one of these challenges.

She's won an excruciatingly
brutal elimination with Leo.

I really feel good about Alyssa.

So my strategy
moving forward is just

to bond really well with Alyssa,
and we'll see what happens.

DAVID: There you go.
One more trip.

Keep going, Justine.

* *

-DANNY: You can win this.
-DAVID: There you go.

There you go.

* *

Was that fast?

Yeah, you were good,
you was good.

TJ:
Leo, you ready?

Fresh off an iconic Arena

when I already got the money
for the final, but you know,

a little more money
didn't hurt nobody.

-(air horn blows)
-TJ: Go.

(laughing)

CONTESTANTS:
Oh.

-Okay.
-All right.

We actually all expected Leo
not to make the jump

and to come in last place,
but I'm like,

"Is he about to win this?"

DAVID:
There you go, Lee.

Good job, Leo.

CAYLA:
Nice, Leo.

LEO: I don't want anybody
to win this but me.

I'm going to be out for revenge,

especially with Tyson.

I know what
I bring to the table.

Sucks to be you.

-DESI: Good job.
-CAYLA: You're doing great.

DAVID:
We're all like "Oh, shit,

Leo won an elimination.
Now he's a new guy."

Tyson is usually
the funny one, loud.

Always got the jokes.

And right now, he's quiet.

* *

TYSON:
I put Sarah and Leo
in an elimination.

And when Leo came back,

he was very upset with me.

If he wins,
he would take a shot at me.

So I do definitely feel nervous.

* *

-CAYLA: Wow, he's moving.
-DANNY: Wow.

Good job, Leo.

Leo,

his catlike instincts
just really came out to play.

I'm gonna be absolutely shocked

if Leo doesn't take this
home today.

DESI:
All right, Leo.

Way to go.

There you go, Leo.

LEO: I think
I just walked on water.

I don't know about you guys,
but officially,

you could call me
King Leonides of Argentina.

Gracias, Challenge!

(whoop)

Thank you, Challenge gods.
I feel great.

I love Argentina.
Please give me that "W."

I feel good.

TJ: All right, Desi,
you ready?

-(air horn blows)
-Go.

(applause and cheering)

(contestants exclaiming)

Oh, no!

-(air horn blows)
-No!

All right, you're out.
Thanks for playing.

-(laughing)
-ALYSSA: TJ!

It's okay.
It's okay, Desi.

DESI: Had this been
any other challenge,

I could have potentially
been going

into elimination the next day.

The only silver lining here

is that
it's a men's elimination.

* *

TJ:
All right, everyone.

Great challenge today.
Nice work.

The one guy

that I'll be seeing
in the Arena...

* *

...it's Enzo.

Oh, man.

The medic said I need stitches.

Now TJ hits me with the bad news
that I came in last place.

That's devastating for me,
right there,

so I'm thinking,

"Man, tomorrow might be
my last day here, man."

As for the winners,

two women were only
separated by seconds.

That was Sarah and Angela.

However, the one that got
it done the fastest was Angela.

Congratulations.

Nice job.

TJ: Angela, you absolutely
killed it.

SARAH:
I still don't have my money,

and I have hit
full panic mode now.

It's definitely nerve-racking.

It's a men's elimination.

This would've been a good one
for me to get my money.

For the men, two men

separated by only seconds,

were Leo and Ben.

DANNY:
If Leo wins,

we have no idea

who he would target.

He's an absolute wild card.

And one man
that won today's challenge...

...was Ben.

(applause and cheering)

(whooping)

-Good job, B.
-(laughing)

-(Ben sniffling)
-CAYLA: You deserve it.

BEN:
I wanted this win so bad.

I just wanted it
for Blake and I.

We finally get to share
something special

on a day like today

'cause I know he was with me.

Thanks, buddy.

Ben, you and Angela
receive $10,000

to split in your personal
Challenge accounts.

You're qualified to run my final
and safe from elimination.

Now I need you to go
back to the house,

deliberate and decide one man

to send into the Arena
to go against Enzo.

All right? See you later.

Get out of here.

* *

-Okay.
-ANGELA: How's it feeling?

-It's all right.
-How many stitches?

-Maybe like three?
-BEN: Geez, man.

Maybe like two,
but I'm gonna say three

'cause it sounds...
it sounds cool.

You were bleeding
everywhere there.

-ENZO: Well, congrats
on you guys.
-ANGELA: Thank you.

-BEN: Thanks, man.
-ENZO: You guys killed it.

Yeah. So,
what are you thinking, buddy?

ANGELA:
Shall we look at the board?

It's up to you guys, man.

You know, whatever's better
for your games.

I don't care.
As long as they got money,

it gives me a chance to...

-Okay.
-ENZO: I'm from the street.

Bro, I'm no pushover, brah.
We know this.

I want your money.

Whoever you are, whoever
Ben and Angela throw in,

I'm gonna see red

and I'm coming for that money.

I want to come back,
you know, so...

ANGELA:
And if you come back,

you got your money,
you're in the final.

-You're done.
-And that's it.

And then I just hide
for like a week and a half.

Take a nap.
See you at the final, Enzo.

BEN: You know what?
Heal that leg up.

Yeah, that's what
I'm saying, man, so...

Thank you, guys.
Congrats again, man, all right?

Hey, good job, man. Thank you.

-That's it?
-Yeah.

ANGELA:
Getting to win an individual

challenge after winning twice
with a partner feels amazing.

And I feel like this could be a
really great opportunity to get

close to Ben and maybe make
some deals moving forward

with some other people involved.

I think Alyssa has a really
good shot at winning

-one of these next
three challenges.
-Right.

ANGELA:
And if she's sketched out by

how many Survivor people
there are,

-she's gonna try and take
a shot at one of you.
-Right.

But if I can make sure
that she is good with us,

the only way one of you
Survivor guys will go in

is if someone from
Love Island wins with either

David or Enzo or Leo.

But in turn,

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.
-Right.

ANGELA:
At this point in the game,

now that this is
completely individual,

the people that I am working
with have not changed.

It is Tyson number one.

And then, I'm hoping the Big
Brother people have my back.

If I can get these four guys
on board with me and Alyssa

and then I'm good
with Enzo and David,

puts me in a really
good spot moving forward.

I'd want this to be
just the Survivor guys.

I don't want, like, it to get
out to the Love Island girls

-or the Survivor girls.
-Yeah, well... Yeah.

-Yeah.
-But I need to know that, like,
if one of you guys wins

-with Sarah or Desi...
-Okay.

...you won't try
and go after Alyssa.

BEN:
Angela is pitching to me

that she wants protection

from the Survivor guys
and the Big Brother girls.

And that puts Desi

and Sarah on the outs.

And it's uncomfortable to me.

It's really uncomfortable.

And I don't like being
uncomfortable. (chuckles)

I think Alyssa is
a strong competitor.

I think she's here to win.
She's proven it time after time.

-That shocked me
time after time.
-100%.

If you want,
you can talk to her.

And I can talk to her.

I genuinely have not even
said anything to her.

But I know she's
freaked out right now.

So I think if I'd be like
"Look, I got a plan for us,"

she's gonna be, like,
1,000% in.

BEN: I want to be
at the end with Sarah,

but I need to focus on me
and my game.

I need to start reaching out

and building other
relationships outside of Sarah.

You kind of just got to be
the yes-man.

I'm on board with that,
and I think

that's a good game plan,
especially moving to the final.

-Yeah.
-BEN: So now,

I have to go around
to the Survivor guys

to make sure everyone else
is on the same page.

I have the money.

Now I'm trying to find
whatever protection I can.

I feel like it's just, like,
it has to happen.

* *

* *

BEN:
What's your relationship
with Alyssa?

We're friendly out here,
but not working together ever.

-Ever?
-I mean, I never have, right?

Okay. Well, Angela thinks

it would be beneficial...

-To bring her in.
-Yes.

ANGELA:
I talked to Ben first.

I was like "I haven't even
told Alyssa this idea."

I want to form a thing
with the Big Brother girls

and the Survivor guys and
we'll look out for each other,

because if you won
a competition,

you have to just say you're not
gonna throw any of them in.

If any of them win something,
they won't throw us in.

Just because
I have never worked with her

doesn't mean I'm not willing
to work with her.

This game is not like Survivor.

You can't just go with
the set number of people

that you started the game with.

You have to constantly adjust
your game and, you know,

adapt to the players that are
remaining in this game.

So now I need to make changes

that will help me
get to the end.

These girls aren't
close with us.

That makes so much sense.

The girls are not on our side,
but the guys can be.

-And that's all we need.
-And that's all we need.

ALYSSA:
I really feel good about Angela.

I feel like we are
on the top part

of some of the strongest
girls in the house,

so I feel like looking after
each other just makes sense.

Tyson's on board.

I sat down with him,

just kind of, like,
joking around,

and I was like "I got an idea,"
and Tyson goes, "I'm on board."

(laughs)

I, like, fist-bumped Angela

and was like,
"Thank God you won.

If Sarah would have won, it
might have been sketchy for me."

And Alyssa goes,

"Oh, I wouldn't have
thrown you in, either."

And I was like,
"Oh, yeah, okay." Like...

(both laughing)

I don't know how all this stuff
is happening at the same time.

It just came out of nowhere.

So we'll see how this works
moving forward.

-I'm happy with it.
-Yeah.

* *

DAVID: Every time,
if I don't win a challenge,

I prepare mentally and
physically as if I'm going in.

I don't want to be surprised.

I want to run in the final
and I want to win this money.

People get blindsided

all the time on The Challenge,

and I will never get blindsided.

That will never happen to me.

(exhales)

* *

Blake and I worked
in teams of twos over in Iraq,

and I lost him and held him
in his arms while he passed.

And that's why today was
such a hard day and special day.

And here's to making
Blake proud.

So thank you all
for being here and celebrating.

-(cheering)
-Cheers to Blake.

LEO:
Congratulations, Ben.

-Congratulations.
-Cheers.

Now let's party.

(whooping)

It's really neat to see
everybody honor Blake

because he was a hero.

He was my hero, and I think
about him every day--

even more on days like today.

And for everyone
to pay him respect on this day

means the world to me.

Even more than winning
this challenge.

-Today was the day to do it.
-Right.

So I'm happy.

LEO:
I couldn't be happier for him.

And you. You killed it.

-Congratulations,
first and foremost.
-Thanks.

I'll keep it short and sweet,

like, you were
like my little angel.

-Your mermaid.
-Yeah, your mermaid.

(laughs)

Um, never targeted you.
I really want to be here.

If, um, you... keep me,
I would name my s...

I'm naming the third cat
after Alyssa,

so my fourth cat.

If I get a fourth one,
it'll be Angela. (laughing)

If you have any inkling

that you might be going
into elimination,

everyone thinks there's
a target on your back,

so then they stay away
from you, too.

Like you do have a plague.

Um, I felt it the last week,

and now I'm feeling it again,
but I'm gonna keep doing

what I have been doing.

It's been working so far.

-How many stitches?
-For that?

Yeah.
Two, three stitches.

Like, if I didn't come in
last place,

I would've had at least
a couple of days to heal up,

you know what I mean?
Now, it's like... I don't know.

Like, if I don't feel good
tomorrow, what am I gonna do?

You know what I mean?

-Dang.
-If I can't move, like,

how the fuck
am I gonna compete?

You know what I'm saying?

So I'm just like, "Look, let's
wait until tomorrow and see."

SARAH:
Yeah.

What, like, honest opinions
on me going in against Enzo?

DESI: I do think
you'd win against him.

-Like, I don't...
-I do, too.

SARAH:
I am not scared to go in
against anybody.

I get it, I'm not gonna
have enough money.

But how epic would it be?

In all the seasons
of The Challenge,

no female has ever
stepped up against a guy.

And to step up and be like,
"Bring it."

It's a men's elimination,

but I don't feel like
I've proven myself.

And here's an opportunity.

I'm not scared of anything.

Enzo comes back,
he got stitches in his leg.

And I've taken on bigger guys
than every guy in this house.

I know I'm a badass

and I know I can beat him.

-DESI: I love it.
-CAYLA: Seriously.

DESI:
It's a big move.

It's a legendary move...

-(laughing)
-SARAH: No.

And how many seasons
of The Challenge

-has anybody done that?
-I mean, never.

SARAH:
I want to write my own story,

and this is how
I want my story to be.

CAYLA:
Sarah's one of the most
badass women I've ever met,

because no way in hell
would I throw myself down

in an elimination against
a guy this close to the final.

But if she's gonna go home
because she didn't get money,

I mean, that's worse to her than
going home taking on a guy.

-I'll come back.
-Yeah, you're confident
you'll come back.

100%, I'll come back.

I won't not come back.

I won't even pack my shit.

That's how confident I am
I'll come back.

I love that. I...

* *

Oh, shit.

(exclaiming)

ALYSSA:
I see the famous Hall Brawl.

I'm super excited

as a Challenge fan to see this.

-Yo...
-DANNY: I've been watching

Hall Brawl on The Challenge

for years,
and it is really physical.

You run down this tight hallway,
you cannot move out of the way.

Go, go, go!

See who wants to take
the punishment.

And this is what I live for.

All right, everyone,
welcome back to the Arena.

Today is our first
individual elimination night.

The one losing male
from the challenge was Enzo.

So come on out, Enzo.

* *

-Oh, yeah. Yeah.
-TJ: Yep. (chuckles)

DANNY: If there was
anybody else down there

and they had the money
to qualify me for the final,

I would run straight
through them,

tag that bell and tell TJ
it's time to go.

TJ:
Angela and Ben,
since you won the challenge,

you are safe from elimination.

Got ten Gs to split
in your Challenge accounts,

which qualified you
to run my final, Ben.

-Yes, sir.
-Congratulations.

And now I need you
to select one man,

to send into the Arena
to go against Enzo.

A very fired-up Enzo,
by the way.

He's ready.

SARAH:
Let me get my hands dirty.

Let me get in the mix.

I want to go in.
Put me in.

-I can beat Enzo.
-Sure.

SARAH:
For me, it's...

I want to show
any little girl watching,

if you believe in yourself,

-you can do anything.
-Right.

DOMENICK:
It can also be reckless.

Like, you're not in danger.

ANGELA:
Out of the men
we had to choose from,

many of which had an opportunity
to throw both of us

into an elimination,
and they did not.

So tonight, we want to repay
those individuals

and we'll return the favor.

And for that reason,
we decided to choose...

...Leo for this elimination.

Sarah, maybe you should focus
on trying to win the challenges.

I don't know.
It's just a suggestion.

What about you, Ben?
What do you think?

After talking with Enzo,
the man wants his money

and Leo checked all the boxes
for all three of us,

and that's why he'll be going
into the Arena tonight.

All right, Leo, come on down.

BEN: It's not good
for Sarah.

I'm helping protect you.

It makes zero sense for my game.

It makes zero sense

for her game.

SARAH:
It is what it is. I tried.

That's all I can do.

* *

This is my all-time
favorite game.

Some of you already know
what it is, but in case

you live under a rock,

tonight you are playing
Hall Brawl.

* *

As you can see,
there's a giant hallway

right behind me here
in the middle of the Arena.

To begin,

you're each going to start
on either side of that hallway.

When I say go,

you will run as fast as you can,

smashing into your opponent,
trying to get past them,

because once
you get to the other side,

you got to get to that bell
before your opponent.

First one to ring
that bell twice

will win tonight's
elimination round

and stay in the game.

Losers go home empty-handed.

And tonight, there's
a lot of money on the line.

So whoever wins tonight
is qualified to run my final.

All they got to do
is make it to the end.

-Good luck, everyone.
-Thank you, man.

Make it happen.

(applause)

LEO:
You know what?

They don't call me "Leo
the Afghanimal" for no reason.

I have played football
before, you know?

(grunting)
Oh, man, just...

I've done some MMA, too.
(grunts)

You know, I'm sorry, Enzo.
I might have to go for that leg.

They're all scared.

Don't worry,
I'm gonna come back,

and then I'm gonna
show them what's up.

Cats come in all shapes
and sizes.

But today,
I'm gonna be Leo The Lion

and show all these fools,
I mean, all these snakes,

what I got cooking, okay?
Let's go.

Let's go!

-Come on, Leo.
-DOMENICK: Good job!

ENZO:
I'm running through
someone, man.

Let's go.

I don't care, my money's on that
other side of that bell, man.

It's no more Mr. Nice Guy,
I'm going through him.

That's it.

Good job!

CASHAY:
As a fan of The Challenge

about to see
a Hall Brawl live,

I'm fangirling.

Especially 'cause it's not me.

TJ:
All right, gentlemen, you ready?

-Go!
-(air horn blows)

(cheering)

-Stay low, stay low.
-(contestants exclaiming)

Fuck.

* *

DOMENICK:
So this is Hall Brawl.

This is a Challenge classic.

Two guys running into each other

as fast as they can,
and whoever comes out

the other side and
rings that bell is the winner.

This is as ruthless as it gets.

All right, gentlemen, you ready?

DOMENICK:
Let's go!

Go!

-(contestants whooping)
-Come on, Leo!

(grunting)

Ooh...

-(grunting)
-TJ: Nice!

BEN: This is not as easy
as I thought it was gonna be,

and Leo's showing
a lot of heart right now.

He didn't get crushed

like everybody thought
would happen.

-Stay low!
-Oh, oh, oh!
-Oh, shit. Oh, fuck.

(clinking)

Come on, Enzo.

JUSTINE:
Let's go, let's go.

It's like Friday Night Lights
right now in this hallway.

So let me run through
this dude, man. Let's go.

Wow.

Leo, initially stay low.

You got to get low.

Me and Kiki have watched this
so many times on TV.

Babe, I'm here.

This is real.
I'm watching it live.

I'm not in it.
I wish I could be.

But it is as intense

as it looks when we watch it
on television.

(sighs)
This is hard to watch.

TJ:
Round two.

DANNY:
Get low, get low.

CAYLA: Stay low, Leo.
DANNY: Get low.

TJ:
All right.

Score is one-nothing Enzo.

Enzo, you win this one,
it's over.

Leo, you got to pick it up.
Stay in the game.

All right, gentlemen, you ready?

(muffled):
Go low!

-(air horn blows)
-TJ: Go!

(cheering)

Go hard, go hard, Leo!

Let's go!

Let's go!

(air horn blows)

DOMENICK:
Yeah, baby!

SARAH:
Good job, Enzo.

(whooping)

DANNY:
Good job, Enzo.

Gia and Nico, that's for you!

You know, I saw red.

That's my money.

That's my family on that
other side where that bell is.

I had to run through him,
and that's what was my strategy.

Just run right through him.
That was it.

These challenges
are too hard to win,

but these eliminations are fun.

They're fun.
So I made my money.

I got my ticket.

Let's go, man.
It's game on.

Catfish, brother.

-I love you. I love you, man.
-Great job, Leo!

-Way to go, Leo!
-Good fight!

I just bad for him.
I just know he wanted it so bad.

(sniffles)

I just feel bad for him.

Leo is defeated,

and there are three guys

standing up here
that have not gone down

into an elimination.

It's soul-crushing,
because I believed

Leo deserved to be here.

PRODUCER:
Do you feel good walking out

and saying goodbye to everyone?

I don't know.
I think it's pointless.

I'm not used to living
in a house

with a bunch of messy strangers.

You guys are all snakes, okay?
You all snakes.

Minus Cayla and Sarah.
And Desi.

And maybe another couple.
I don't know.

See you later.

TJ:
All right, well...

Leo's in the back,
taking a moment to himself.

Unfortunately, he lost
tonight's elimination round,

so he's out of the game.

But you have won.

So, congratulations.

You won all of his money,
as well,

which means you are qualified
to run my final.

So, Enzo,

all you got to do is
make it to the end.

Good luck, man.
Go ahead and rejoin the group.

I love you, Catfish Leo.
It was nothing personal.

He got his two cats at home.

He's got his beautiful
girlfriend.

So, you know, it'll be good.
It'll be good.

(laughing)

All right, well,
great elimination tonight.

Enzo, good work.

Remember, all of you are also
competing to earn a spot

in the first ever
Challenge world championships,

exclusively on Paramount+.

All you got to do
is make it to the end.

I'll see everyone real soon.
Get out of here.

JUSTINE:
Now that it's individuals,

I'm so nervous because
this game is changing.

It's changing fast.

But the goal is to just

stay my ass out of elimination.

I've been in there

twice too many,
and that's enough for me.
