The Challenge: Battle of the Exes 2 made a crazy turn last night! Picking up from last week, as the remainder competitors party, Wes and Leroy talk about making it to the Finals. The goal is to now use Jenna and Jay as the scapegoat as planned. However, Jordan and Sarah refuse, knowing that Wes and Theresa are just scared to face elimination. Honestly, it doesn’t make sense to do away with the easiest team now, when you can keep them for the final. Jordan and Sarah are playing for themselves, and Wes gets upset or whatever. When he and Jordan have a conversation about this all again the next day, Jordan makes the implication that Theresa is a bigger witch then he is an ass. To me, I never have liked Theresa. I think she’s fake, and it shows when she hears from Wes that Jordan was talking about her. She starts crying and getting all emotional. To me, it’s all stupid. Can we get the focus back to the game?!
Moments later, T.J. sends a clue that says: “Meet me in the Dome in 20 minutes.” The house has NO IDEA what’s been going on! T.J. announces to them that the Battle of the EXiled has been going on with all of the eliminated teams to bring a team back. He then brings out Jonna and Zach to face Nany and Bananas in an elimination! The teams will play “It Takes Two To Tangle.” The teams have to tangle ropes as best as they can around a wooden structure for 20 minutes, and then switch to untangle the mess their opponents have created. Nany and Bananas surprisingly struggle in the beginning. Zach and Jonna actually communicate well and seem to be knocking it out, until they get tangled in their ropes some kind of way. Bananas and Nany manage to get it together and take the win, sending home Zach and Jonna! This definitely changes EVERYTHING! Wes and Theresa especially are definitely scared and they should be!
At deliberation, Nia goes off even further, which is entirely too much. To me, I don’t care how close friends you are outside of this house. In the game, it’s every team for itself. You have to do what’s best for you, or you’re not getting that money! Nia always makes things so personal. She literally goes off on everybody, especially Nany and Bananas who managed to come back. She and Nany REALLY get into it, with Nia calling her all kinds of names, yelling and screaming, and of course, Nany claps back! The episode ends on a cliffhanger just like that. And it left me thinking, T.J. Lavin, how do you deal with this foolishness?!
