This week, the force field thats been protecting Leroy this entire game has finally been penetrated.
For now, of course.
(He doesnt have a television personality, in my opinion!)
Fessy gives her a love you and a half-hearted hug in his typical fuccboi fashion.
I honestly dont understand why people dont have more faith in Kyle performance-wise.
And hes never not giving his all during the weekly challenges.
They both say he shouldnt be asking for things until he wins something, which … ouch.
Strategy is not Corys friend.
Now, were on to the weekly mission.
And man, is it a good one.
Anyway, the mission is called Undercover.
Whoevers in charge of naming these has clearly given up.
Theres this long confessional bit where everyone tries to describe what a tectonic plate is that is deeply unfunny.
Once they swim back to the rings, they have to complete a puzzle using the rings on land.
Since Leroy and Kaycee were the last double agents, they get to pick the order of the teams.
This moment really highlights how much Leroy needs Kam so that make rational decisions.
Yet Leroy goes out of his way to needlessly piss them off.
Kyles also hurt because he thought Leroy was his friend.
The term friend has a million definitions in this game, so Im not completely sold on this claim.
Nevertheless, Kyles hurt!
Once they come back to land for the puzzle, itseemslike theyre struggling.
Cory immediately disqualifies them because he cant dive due to PTSD from his childhood friend trying to drown him.
This anecdote definitely put his toxic friendship with Fessy into perspective for me.
Next, Amber B. gets her and Darrell disqualified when she struggles to breathe.
Even watching this woman nearly die is a snooze!
Shes just not the bang out of competitor to have a winning streak.
Mind you, this is before Nany actually goes underwater.
She still has the opportunity to adjust the canister before she dives.
But she doesnt and ends up disqualifying them by returning to the surface.
But they end up completing it.
And Leroy and Kaycee do as well as theyve been doing this entire season.
Back at the house, literally everyone is nervous but especially Leroy.
Kam gives Leroy some sound advice before they go outside to the club, which is basically to grovel.
At the club, Fessy is hyping up Nany for truly no reason.
Back at the house, Nany is telling CT that she regrets picking Fessy as her partner.
She says she can tell hes the kind of guy who needs his ego stroked.
And youre not doing that.
CT is talking about how he misses Big T, and I would rather not rehash this plot again!
Then, we have another pointless deliberation.
The disrespect has gone on for too long.
Kyle and Fessy weigh their options in the Crater.
Kyle is still a bit of wildcard.
Theyre playing Snapping Point for the third time.
TJ says hes doubled the size of the course and tripled the resistance of the rope.
Cory is just approaching 3o, and Darrell was born in the 70s.
God, I love Darrell.
Why did they have to pit two fine, charming Black men against one another?
How could you not be?
TJs sendoff to Darrell is surprisingly unwarm.
Theres no Im sure well see you again.
Just you had a hell of a season.
Take care of yourself.
TJs clearly ready for Darrell to retire, but Im not!
