Go! - Let's start going down.

We can pull back.

- Five, six...

- Yeah!

- Whoo!

- Good job, guys!

All right, that's game.

Bananas and Sarah, who is the first team

that you're nominating?

- Our vote: Nany and Wes.

- All right, and the second team?

- Let me do you a favor here.

- Our nomination is for Devin and Cheyenne.

- Devin, it all comes down to this, man.

[together] Oh!

And or the first time ever, bloodlines facing off

You got it!

That's how you make a statement.

This ends your time here in Mexico.

You are going to Argentina.

Always being picked on.

I want to go home. I want to go home!

announcer: Tonight... - You're a sheep!

- Who the [bleep] are you? - Somebody's going home.

The only way to do that is by one final elimination.

Now, of course, there's a twist.

You're not just competing against the other teams.

You will also be playing against each other.

It just gets frustrating, and I listen to all their jokes,

- Vince and Bananas don't understand, and they are acting

like it's not a big deal and they do this all the time.

If you come into this house with no insecurities at all

that you will leave with a lot, because they're just ruthless

with everything that they say.

- And I'm just like, "Why am I here

if I'm just going to be ridiculed all the time?"

And I did this in high school.

I had to fight my way through college.

Like, I don't know what to do,

so you have to tell me what to do.

- Parents are extremely protective of me,

and I have an older sister,

and she's extremely protective of me, and, you know,

it's really hard when I am away from home,

and it definitely drives me crazy knowing, you know,

I'm here and they're there,

especially when you're in these situations

where it's such a pressure cooker.

Vince, how [bleep] old can you be and still ride coattails

of your old-ass cousin?

crying and being the youngest of a bunch of kids,

I would get picked on all the time.

And I was always that kid that, you know,

tried to bully the bullies.

if I left because I let someone say something

ignorant and stupid.

So I'm gonna stay,

and I'm just gonna ignore what they said.

- That's the right--that's the right way to look.

Devin cares about me.

Sometimes he doesn't know how to express that,

and it can come off in a bad way.

He wants to fight them, and I'm like, "I don't."

I don't want to fight them.

I don't want to call them names.

I don't want to explain to them anything.

I'm over it.

- Get the [bleep] out of here. - Oh, no.

You're just nervous you're gonna have to [bleep] go home

'cause my partner.

saying whatever he said to her.

"I'm sorry for my stupid-ass partner,

but I'm gonna go to the other room and joke with him."

about you and your partner.

- Get the [bleep] out! - Oh, my God.

There's only a handful of people that can actually

really piss me off.

I am a hothead deep down.

I'm not this sweet little thing that's gonna brush it off.

I'm gonna get a little more psycho than normal.

- Go in the other room... - Oh, my God.

- Where they think you're smart and pretty.

'Cause we don't think that here.

So get the [bleep] out. - You shouldn't be here!

We sent you home the first [bleep] elimination.

- Get away!

- Devin, shut up.

- You're a sheep!

- Oh, my God, cute and fluffy? - You--

exactly, you don't even know what I'm saying,

and that's how [bleep] dumb you are.

- I don't even know what a sheep means, like, cute and fluffy?

Like, is that supposed to be an insult?

You're going to be eliminated tomorrow.

- Yeah, okay, bye, Jenna.

- I fell bad for Cheyenne that she's stuck with you.

I really do. - Jenna, Jenna...

Ugh, you don't even get it.

You're so [bleep] dumb that you don't even get it.

You're so dumb that you don't even get it.

- Yeah, okay. - So get the [bleep] out.

Don't have her go too hard,

because we don't want you gassin' out either.

- Yeah, seriously.

to run a mile straight.

No way. No frickin' chance.

- What's Johnny's weakness. the puzzles?

- The puzzles and things like that.

As childish as that little Banana can be,

he really showed me a mature side

of himself when he forgave me.

Now final challenge doesn't even look that hard

in comparison to what we've had to emotionally

go through this season.

But I burn out, like, real quick.

- That's me and Vince's.

He's strong. Don't get me wrong.

We'll do great in strength stuff,

but the endurance absolutely not.

Vince has never been to a final challenge.

He has no idea what to expect.

This whole season, Bananas and Sarah have been helping us,

but they're not gonna be able to help us in the final challenge,

so we're going to be on our own.

- I'm a little concerned that there is going to be

something that Cheyenne can't do.

- You? How do you think I feel?

Jenna's proven time and time again she can't eat anything

but chicken nuggets.

I mean...

I want to prove it to the people that are going to say,

"Oh, you guys rode coattails."

"If you weren't Bananas' cousin, you wouldn't be here,

blah, blah, blah..."

I know what I can do, and I just want to show it.
