TJ:The Challenge
pushes players to compete

in extreme competitions
in order to avoid elimination,

all in hopes of winning
the grand prize of $500,000.

Now, for the first time ever,

players fromBig Brother,

Survivor, The Amazing Race

andLove Island battle it out
to become the first

Challenge: USA champion.

ANGELA: I don't think the
Love Island guys have any idea

what they're getting themselves
into.

If you want to play dirty,
we can play dirty.

LEO:Big Brother--
they're all snakes,

each and every one of them.

-[whooping]
-DESI: People just

can't help but scheme

and lie.

TYSON:
You know what would make

this game better? Me.

Here we go.

-Oh.
-Whoa.

It's an outdoor, but indoor.

I'm Tyson.
You know me fromSurvivor.

I've never felt closer to God

than getting handed
a million-dollar check

from a large corporation

for lying and cheating

on national television.

I've always been aware
of The Challenge.

My dream here is
to win every single challenge

all the way to the end.

♪ Freedom deep in my bones,
yeah...♪

TIFFANY: I went onBig Brother
and did not win the game,

but I won the best prize of all.

I won America's heart.

I actually loveThe Challenge.

Plus, there is money
on the line.

I was born strategic, and so,

I plan to come into this game

and mastermind my way through.

♪ Whoo, this is the place,
yeah, I know it...♪

Nice!

On Big Brother,I was known

for being cold-hearted,
ruthless,

stone-cold, and

I think that's what I'm going
to be doing here.

Nice to meet you.
What's your name? Danny.

-Danny. Danny. Yeah.
-Survivor.Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-How you doing?
-Good. How you doing, Danny?

-Nice to see you, too.
-Nice to meet you.

Nice to see you.

I was on SurvivorSeason 41.

I did not win, but I feel
like I played a great game.

I was an undrafted free agent.

I tried out
for the Dallas Cowboys,

ended up making the team.

If I have to stab someone
in the back

to get me further in the game,
that is something that I am

definitely willing to do.

CAYLA:
I'm Cayla.

-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you, too.

Yes.

I-I would like to think.
[laughs]

I am from Season 33
of The Amazing Race.

I am very familiar
withThe Challenge.

I've studied it.
I'm a fan of it.

I want to keep a low profile,
and then

beast mode my way
through the end of it,

and really show people that
I might have been a sleeper,

and you might have
underestimated me,

but I will play.

-Hi. Xavier.
-Cayla.

-Xavier. Nice to meet you.
-Thank you.

Nice to meet you.
This is my-- What show?

-Amazing Race.
-Amazing Race.Okay.

I know all about The Cookout.
Big Big Brotherfan.

I wasn't even in The Cookout,
actually. I-I...

-What?!
-I wasn't a part
of it at all. No.

I am the winner of
Big Brother Season 23.

I want to extend my legacy.
I want to winThe Challenge.

Four members of The Cookout,

the most dominant alliance

to ever play Big Brother,
are here--

myself, Tiffany, Kyland
and Azah.

We're going to look out
for each other,

but I don't think it's going
to be the same commitment

that you saw on Big Brother.

-Hi.
-Um, what's your name?

-Desi.
-Desi, I'm Shannon.

Going into Survivor,I was very
fresh out of the pageant world.

I won Miss Virginia twice,

and then competed at Miss USA,

where I finished in the top ten.

I was not Miss USA,

but I'm here
to be Miss Challenge USA.

ALL:
Whoa!

-Something's happening.
-Wait. What is this?

-Oh, wait. Look at the shadow.
-The shadow.

-There's a shadow.
-Oh, man.

-Shadow.
-Oh, baby.
-[overlapping chatter]

[cheering, applause]

[indistinct shouting]

[whooping, applause]

Yes! Now it's real.

The Challengehost, mastermind,

owner of the final himself.

I get giddy like a kid.

I cannot believe that I'm seeing
TJ walk out here right now.

Buenas noches,everyone.

ALL:
Buenas noches!

Welcome to The Challenge: USA.

[applause, cheering]

[indistinct shouting]

Now it's real. Now it's real.

I'm TJ Lavin.
I'm the host of the show,

and I am so happy to see
each and every one of you.

Looking around,
I see a lot of people

who really know
how to play games.

Maybe you were isolated
on an island,

or you raced across the world,

or you had Big Brother
watching you 24/7,

or you fell in love,
only to get your heart broken

at the end.
I mean, what?

-That part. That part.
-That part.
-TJ: Come on.

CASHAY:
I'm constantly asked
about Cinco.

We were paired up
onLove Island, we dated.

We broke up. It didn't work out,
but at the end of the day,

we both want to win and just,
you know, it's uncomfortable.

That's the tea. [laughs]

TJ:
In any case,
this is The Challenge.

We're built different here.

You will be faced
with challenges and eliminations

that are harder than anything
that you've ever done before.

Now, you make it to the end,
there's $500,000 up for grabs.

[whooping, cheering]

TASHA:
When I competed onSurvivor,

I came just short
of winning as a runner-up.

I'm here

to do whatever
I need to do to win

this game and

$500,000.

Now, to start things off,
I'm going to give each of you

a little seed money in your
personal Challengeaccount.

Everyone's going to have $1,000.

Unfortunately for you,

that is not enough money

to make it to my final,
which is the ultimate goal.

To qualify,
you have to have $5,000

in that personal
Challengeaccount.

There are two ways
for you to earn that money.

You can either win a challenge
or win an elimination.

Now you're not just playing
for the coveted cash prize.

You're also playing
to earn your spot

in the first ever International
Global Challenge Tournament,

streaming exclusively
on Paramount Plus.

-Let's go!
-[cheering, applause]

Now I know some of you
have some catching up to do.

And maybe some of you want
to get to know each other.

Whatever the case,
get in the house,

get used to the new digs,

and I'll be seeing you
very soon. Good luck.

[indistinct chatter]

Oh, my gosh.

Oh!

BEN:
I was onSurvivor Season 35
and Season 40.

And when I played Survivor
last time,

I played a very loyal game,
a trustworthy game.

This time, it's not going to be
like that. I'm here for myself.

Oh, my gosh.
Look at... I'm official!

-Guard my bed.
Don't let anyone take it.
-Yeah, yeah.

DEREK:
I'm competing
against a pro cyclist,

swimmers, football players,
basketball players.

Every single type of athlete
seems to be in this house.

And then there's me,
who did high school chess club.

So, my initial strategy
coming into the house

is strategic
and social gameplay.

I heard there was
a little Big Brotherdrama.

That's what I heard through
the grapevine coming in here.

My season,
there was an alliance.

X, uh, won our season.

Azah, Kyland and-and Tiffany
were in it, as well.

-And Tiffany.
-Okay, and they all formed

an alliance against you guys?

And we had no idea
they were working together,

so, like, for 65 days,
X was my best friend,

but he was never
working with me.

The Cookout was

an alliance on our season.

They made an alliance and
made it all the way to the end.

Me and Derek were pawns
in The Cookouts' game.

And honestly, what I'm excited
about is getting my revenge

on the whole alliance.

XAVIER:
Alyssa is easily probably

the closest ally I have
from the Big Brothergroup.

She's someone I know

will have my back.

So is there, like,
any weird feelings?

That's...
This is what I heard about.

No. Like, we're all
still really close

'cause we respected
the gameplay.

But it is definitely hard
to, like...

Are you gonna have trouble
trusting, maybe, in this game?

Yeah.

DEREK:
I trust Alyssa

100% with my game right now,

and I'd say
she's probably my closest ally.

The Cookout took us out
one at a time.

Alyssa and I were both betrayed
by our closest ally, so,

it's time for a little bit
of revenge.

-Nice.

-Hey, nothing but love.
-Nothing but love for sure.

-TJ signed off.
-It'll be fine.
It won't be awkward.

-We'll be fine.
-No, not awkward at all.

-We're-we're both chill people.
-So chill.

Why are you just repeating
what I'm saying?

It's been too long.
Been a long time.

It's been too long?
Just the pat?

-Thank you.
-Good to see you.

I have not seen Kyra
since we broke up.

We were driving from Tahoe
down to Lake Arrowhead.

It was an eight-hour drive.

We broke up about hour four.

[laughs quietly]

And we haven't
really spoken since.

Phew.

KYRA: Unfortunately, all
love stories do not end well,

but I don't want to let it,
like, hurt my game.

I got this tattoo.
It says "fearless,"

and that's the way I want
to live it in this house.

I want to focus on this game.
For me to get past it,

-I don't got to talk to her.
-[muffled snort]

CASHAY:
I'm not going
to be in another, like,

Love Islandsituation.
Like,

I just... I can't.
Him with anybody--

like, if they get together, I'm
gonna keep my distance, because

it's, like, at the end
of the day, I don't want to...

I don't want see it,
I don't want to pretend

that, like, we're mad.
It's uncomfortable.

Like, we literally
just broke up,

so it's, like,
it's just a lot, you know?

Just know
that we're here for you,

-and we got you,
whatever you need.
-Yeah.

CINCO:
Having to relive this breakup

with me and Cash every day is
gonna be very annoying for me.

I'm definitely not here
for a relationship at all.

Um, I feel like that...
that show,Love Island,

is already past for me.
Right now,

I'm just gonna focus on the task
at hand, and that's the game.

I was the winner
of Amazing RaceSeason 32.

I love games, so this is like
a glorified board game,

and everyone here
are my little pieces,

and I just need
to set everyone up in a way

that will benefit me
in the long term.

LEO: The benefit of having
just James, Kayla and I

fromThe Amazing Race is that
we're sort of the outliers,

so we could literally infiltrate

any of the other groups
that are here--

Survivor, Big Brother,
or even Love Island.

I'm trying to have a lot
of alliances this season.

Watching my cats,

I know to land on all four paws.

[whispering]:
'Cause they ain't got nothing

-on The Amazing Race.
-No.

-We got this, bro.
-[laughing]

It's a happy family right now.

Once people start
getting called out,

-once people... then...
-Mm-hmm.

-Once a line is drawn
in the sand.
-Yes.

I think that'll happen
on the first elimination.

-Yeah.
-Let's get it to happen.
-Here to compete.

-Here to have fun.
-Let's clear this house out.

SARAH:
The second

I walked in the house,
that's it, it's over.

Just write me the check
right now.

I'm walking away
with this money.

I've been a cop for 16 years.

As a police officer, you need
to control the environment,

and that's just
like how this game is.

-Yeah.
-I just kind of
want to see who's

-gonna rip each other's heads
off, honestly.
-Right?

DOMENICK:
I've taken second place

onSurvivor: Ghost Island.

This time, no more second place.

I believe the Survivorplayers
have the best brain

for this game, and I believe
we're able to deal

with the elements better
than anyone else out here.

JUSTINE:
We are probably the best show

when it comes
to building relationships.

There's been several people
come up to me and say,

"The social aspect of this game
brings me anxiety."

-And I'm like, "Not...
Being where we thrive."
-Not...

-Ooh.
-Right. And me thinking
in my head,

I'm like, "That's been
the easiest part so far."

Like, literally easy peasy.

I got my bestie Justine with me.

I'm so excited

that Cely is here with me.
We don't spend,

like, more than a day apart.

I'm the winner of
Love Island Season 2.

I'm trying to, like,
elevate and test myself

physically and mentally because
I know this game is insane.

So I want to just see
what I'm capable of.

I really just thought
that I can come in here

and make everyone my bestie,

but by the looks of it,
there's, like,

talking happening in corners.

I'm, like, trying
to wiggle my way in there.

What I'm not excited for is

climbing up that mountain.
I thought,

"Um, can we just
have conversations?"

Big Brother
might have all the numbers, but

-Love Island
is the tight group.
-Yeah.

-Those are the ones that last
to the end, the ones
-Mm-hmm.

-that are actually loyal
to each other. Boom.
-Mm-hmm. Right.

The other thing
I do feel is, like,

I feel like
Survivors kind of, like--

they just kind of, like,

stick together
amongst themselves.

The Survivors
are staying together.

-They're telling us?
-That's what they're telling me.

But I, too, have not.

I have not had a conversation
with Sarah.

I had a conversation with Sarah,
and unless she's playing me...

Like, I mean, she could try, but

I have my eye on her,
like, hard.

Like, I mean,
in my dream world,

-her and Angela go toe-to-toe.
-Mm.

SHAN:
I am an itinerant speaker.

I'm a pastor that travels, but

when I play Uno,
when I play Monopoly,

I'm not playing as a pastor.
I'm playing as Shan.

I'm playing as a person
who's competitive.

I'll pray for you, but I have
no problem saying goodbye.

SHANNON:
We don't know what we're doing.

I feel like
I'm just not prepared.

-I'm not used
to working out, like...
-Yeah.

Like, for this, and-and,
like, what I'm doing.

Like, my whole body's sore.

And I didn't even
start the game yet.

What's your body sore from?

-KYRA: She worked out.
-Just doing shit.

Like, trying to do push-ups.

-Hey, you did it.
-Like, my shoulders
are busting out.

I don't even know
if I could even do one again.

It's just very stressful.

-None of your business.
-[laughter]

Enough.

Being blonde, and being on
Love Islandalready,

kind of, I'm already
not being taken seriously.

I know I'm a bad bitch
and what I'm capable of,

but this environment
is so intimidating

that even the baddest bitch
would be running for the hills.

It-it's scary.

KYRA:
And you might,
in this whole journey,

prove something to yourself
that you didn't even expect.

Like, the best times
when we grow

and prove stuff to ourselves
is when we are uncomfortable.

Without further ado,
let's get this party started.

Today's challenge is
called Down To Do the Math.

To begin, two teams at a time
are gonna start

on the roof
of this 22-story building.

Then when I say go,
you will rappel down,

see a series of equations
that you must solve

all the way to the ground.

You will each be
randomly assigned

a different color
that corresponds

to the numbers of the equation
you need to solve.

You will then place the answer
in the answer key.

You'll have three chances
to get that number correct.

If you don't get it right,
you got to run up the stairs

all the way back up to the top
and do it all over again.

Oh, my God.

ENZO:
Nah, yo. I got to do this

on the first try.
There's no way I'm going up

22 flight of stairs and doing
this thing all over again.

There's no way.

The team
to get this done the fastest

will win today's challenge,
be safe from elimination

and receive $10,000

to be put in your personal
Challengeaccounts.

-[cheering, applause, whooping]
-All right!

That's $5,000 each, which also
qualifies you to run my final.

Today's losers will be
going straight into the Arena

for possible elimination.
Make it happen.

The order has been chosen
at random. Good luck.

Just look ahead.

and he is loyal

by my side for now, and it would

make no sense
for him to go home.

KYLAND:
95... is 155.

Times three.

-465, not 7.
-Okay.

Basically, we added 100 more
than we needed.

I hate making dumb mistakes,
and I hate losing,

and right now, I'm doing both.

-465.
-[air horn blows]

-That's correct. Good job.
-Let me sit down.

KYLAND:
Let me sit down.
Let me sit down.

Let me sit down.
In the shade. In the shade.

-Good job, y'all!
-Good job, guys!

Yeah. No, probably in the shade.

I got it. [laughs]

Get that... get that strap off
so she can breathe.

She's struggling.
Ah, no, I get it.

-Azah, are you okay?
-She all right?
-I need water.

DANNY: Azah can't breathe,
her lips are chapped

because she's dehydrated.

It's a very scary sight,

and it lets us know that we need
to focus as we come down

'cause we don't want
to have the same thing

happen to us.

KYLAND:
Water. Let's go.

ALYSSA:
Azah passing out

definitely makes you realize how
intense these challenges are.

Like, this isn't
Big Brotheranymore.

KYLAND:
Azah is looking very gassed, so,

I'm not really sure
what to expect.

I put in so much preparation
to be here,

so to not even have a chance

to really show that and possibly

be sent home on, like,
one tiny mistake--

that's frustrating.

-I'm sorry I slowed you down.
-No, no, no.

I should have held
all the math numbers. It was me.

Shouldn't even have done that.
Shouldn't even had to do it.

-Round two, ready.
-BEN: Stay positive, right?

-Manifest that stuff.
-Mm-hmm.

-I'm not looking down.
-Me, neither.

-Go!
-[air horn blows]

-Ooh!
-BEN: There we go.

-Good job. Good job, so...
-Okay, ready?

-Yup.
-One, two.

Four times four.
13, 14, 15, 16.

-Mm.
-16.

JAMES:
12 plus 48. 60.

-60 times three.
-JAMES: Times three. 180.

SHANNON: We look good, baby!
We look good!

At one point going down
the building,

we checked ourself out
in the mirror, and we were like,

"We look the fuck good."
You know what I mean?

WOMAN:
Let's go, you guys! Let's go!

640 divided by eight.

So we're 80, right?

SHANNON:
Yes.

As an Amazing Racer,I like
to think that I want to use

my surroundings to my benefit,

and thankfully,
the window cleaner didn't come

any time as of lately.

JAMES:
220.

SHANNON:
220.

-ALYSSA: 250 times three?
-BEN: 750.

-Go.

-I can't reach it!
-Check, check, check, check.
-All right.

-Good job.

-Yeah! [laughs]
-Yeah.

-BOTH: Check.

-Good job.

-Yeah!
-Yeah! I love you, babe!

SHANNON: Good job.
How'd you know that?

How did you know...

I didn't want to be here.
I was intimidated,

and I wasn't ready for it.

Fast forward.

I turned over a new leaf.

I'm feeling good,
I'm feeling confident.

My head's in the game.
I'm ready to kick ass.

All right, this is round three.
Here we go.

-Focus on the window
in front of you.
-Yeah.

-Wow.
-Hey, but you know what?

-What?
-Look where we at.

-Yeah. Uh, I...
-Look where we at.
Look where we at.

Look at that way.
Just look that way.

TIFFANY:
Leo says,

"Tiffany, I need you
to look around

at where you are."

I said, "No."

-Ready. Go.

Oh, shit, Leo.

Oh. It's okay. It's okay.

-All right, I'm comfortable.
You ready?
-Yeah. Me, too.

12 plus eight is 20.

Like this, huh? Three.

LEO:
56 times two. 112.

[cheering, applause]

156 minus 100 is 56. 56, okay?

[muttering] 160.

LEO: Oh, hold up.
What's it get up to? 320.

320. Go down. 320. 320.

Hell, yeah, you're fucking
killing it, dude.

You know what? My cats Leo
and Leah would be proud, 'cause

cats love heights.

We don't love water,
but we love heights.

So my cats taught me well.

ENZO:
I like Leo. I like Leo.

I think he's a little weird

'cause he brings up the cats
a lot.

LEO:

Let's not make it weird, bro.

DOMENICK:

-Go, go, go, go, go!
Just take me! Just take me!

LEO: That math right.
We should have math right.

That's it. All right,

You're to the left,
You do three. I do six.

-I'll do zero. Check.

-That's correct! Good job!
-Let's fucking go, baby!
-Ah!

DEREK:
When I stack my performance

against the people
that had gone before us,

I feel like, right now,

we're probably
number one or two.

Love Island is definitely
underestimated.

I'm just hyped, though, because
I have my best friend with me.

There's no way I would have
been able to just

play this game
without Cely here.

I love her.

KYRA:
Fucking feel that.

My heart starts to sink.

come in last.

Ugh. I'm scared.

Oh. Oh. Ooh!

-Okay.

Sorry. Oh, what are we?

-We're pink. Uh, we're pink.
-We're pink.

-CAYLA: Three. Three.
-Three.

-22 times 33 is 66.
-TYSON: 66.

ANGELA:
66 plus four is...

-It's 100. Divided by five.
-TYSON: 20.

Good job, guys.

Come on!

SHAN:
It looks like Thor and freaking

Wonder Woman are rappelling

down the line.

TYSON:
250.

-DAVID: Times five. 550.
-It's 550.

ANGELA:
I was a gymnast,

and then I was
a professional pole vaulter.

And then I did stunt training,
so I just feel like

everything I've done in my life
has, in a weird way,

prepared me
for this competition.

TYSON:
750. That's all of it.

Run, run, run, run!

Survivor but he's played

four freaking times.

115 divided by 5? Is 15.

-CAYLA: What is it?

MAN:
Keep moving, keep moving.

-There you go.
-Check.

Nope, that's not correct.

CAYLA:
565?

AZAH:
Am I a competitor? Yes.

Do I want to win? Absolutely.

I want everyone
to put their best foot forward.

But if anyone wants to get
an equation or two wrong,

I-I don't mind, either.

-465?
-Check.

That is incorrect.

This is your last attempt

-or you're going back upstairs.
-15 times five.

[muttering indistinctly]

I'm literally shaking
in my boots

after seeing what happened
to Kyland and Azah.

I don't want to be thrown down
into an elimination,

so I need to get out of this
daily challenge, uh, survived.

XAVIER:
You guys got it.

Please, please, please, come on.
Focus.

DEREK:
Give it one more.
Give it one more!

-I don't know.

CAYLA:
15 times five. 30.

KYLAND:
It's not really in my nature

to you know,
hope for failure from others,

but...

I don't want to lose this game.

-500...
-50?

15 times 5, 30.

60, 70. 70.

-TJ: Yes, that is correct.

-Good job.
-CAYLA: Yes.

Yes. We don't have to go back...

I don't know what it is,

but I actually work best
under pressure.

So, we said it was

115 times 5, right?

And somehow I got it.

It's 575.

-DAVID: 22 stories.

Did not have to go
up the stairs.

Yes.

She has been an MMA fighter,

she runs, like, ultramarathons.

I am very intimidated by her.

some fear today.
-SHAN: I'm scared.

-Fear will get conquered.
-I'm scared.

"Come back. Don't die."

If I die, she's gonna

SARAH: This is our last one.
This is our only go.

130 times 2...

All right, go. What'd you get?

-DANNY: 360.
-All right.

-[air horn blows]
-Yes!

Wow. That was so fast.

-Yeah!

really surprising,

'cause I was not confident
in this partnership,

But if I ever hear the Shanthem,

I need to watch my back.

the look of disappointment

on my face,

as long as it's

I'm okay with that.

Angela, Tyson, you two

are the only ones safe
from elimination.

You will also
be receiving $10,000.

-[cheering, applause]
-And the money.

5,000 bucks each right in your
personal Challengeaccounts.

That also qualifies you
to run my final.

And as the winning team,

you will have a huge decision
to make.

You are gonna go back

you're gonna deliberate
and decide which team

you want to send into the Arena

I feel great winning
the first challenge.

I think it sets the tone.

And I have Angela,

the strongest female,
on my side.

We already have enough
Challenge bucks

to get to the final,

and in my mind, I'm like,

"Now all I have to do
is survive."

Survive?

DANNY:
Challenge one, let's move.

All right, so,
Tyson and Angela just won,

so that's one Big Brotherside,
that one from Survivorside.

So we know it's gonna
be hard for them

to likely touch either of those.

And we're all teamed up
with the Survivors.

We're all teamed up, so they're
likely gonna be looking

at Amazing Raceand Love Island.

Um, there's only--
the only duo I can think of

that has both would be
James and Shannon.

Shannon's been talking about

how, like, she doesn't
really care to be here.

ALYSSA:
She has been saying that.

It's just not really smart

for Tyson and Angela to go after
people on their same show.

It's too soon
to ruffle any feathers.

And although I don't trust
Kyland and Azah,

I really don't want them
to leave this soon.

It's better
forBig Brother in general.

It's numbers
that are on my side,

but at some point, I'm gonna
want them out of this game.

have a fighting chance,

if our thoughts
would be considered as well.

Okay, that being said,
let's look at these groups here.

We have Kyra and Cashel.

No Big Brother,
no Survivorthere.

Cely and Javonny.

Welcome to my crib.

BOTH:
And Shannon and James.

Which one, just you,
out of those three,

would you prefer?

It's a toss-up between, um,

Cely and Javonny
and Shannon and James for me.

Okay.

I would probably lean
towards James and Shannon.

ANGELA:
Shannon, I don't want
to speak for her,

but I have heard
some things that...

I would go to the point
of saying

that there's people that want
to be here more than her.

Okay.

Shannon supposedly
doesn't want to be here.

I don't even care
if that's true or not.

Secretly, I don't give
a flying fuck, dude.

Get 'em all out of here.

That is also a factor.

It's like, somebody
who doesn't want to be here

probably won't fight as hard.

But James is also a part of

the smallest other alliance...

-AZAH: Yes. Amazing Race,yeah.
-...Amazing Race.

That's the least blood
on our hands...

...in the situation that Kyland

isn't able to eliminate James.

KYLAND:
I didn't come here just to make
it past this first challenge.

I came here to win it all.

I've been working out my body

harder than
I've ever worked out,

the strongest or the fastest,
it's about you having

that heart and that
determination to get ahead.

$500,000
would be absolutely great,

but achieving a goal

that I have set
in mind for myself

is worth more than any money.

TJ:
On the other side,

we have Tyson and Angela.

By winning the last challenge,

you not only split $10,000
in your Challengeaccounts,

but you were also tasked
with choosing one team

to send into the Arena
to go against

the losing team
from the last challenge.

So, Angela,
we'll start with you.

TJ:
Tyson and Angela.

Which team are you sending
into the Arena

to go against Azah and Kyland?

Cely and Javonny.

-Tyson?
-TYSON: I agree with my partner.

Cely and Javonny.

JAVONNY:
What the hell?

There's some left field shit.

JAMES:
After my talk with Shannon,

we were both working the system.

Shannon with me
makes her a strong force.

I really think Shannon
can beat Azah,

and I don't know if you want
to talk to Azah about that.

It's survival mode
at this point.

I want to be here.
I want to play the game.

I'll just keep whispering
in their ear a little bit.

Yeah. I feel like Angela
listens to you.

I feel like she does, too.

Tyson has definitely evolved
through the years

when I watched him on Survivor,

but if there's anything
that has remained the same,

it's that he's always
going to think,

"What is going to help me

get to the end?"

And, hopefully, I can
be an asset to his game.

SHANNON:
This is notLove Island,

and my problem was
people saw me weak.

I had to mentally

snap myself right out of that

and tell myself,
"You deserve to be here."

I might complain,
but when it comes down to it,

I'm in it,
and I'm in it to win it.

I'm gonna fight and try
and stay in as long as I can.

TJ:
Cely, Javonny, come on down.

-Come on, Cely.
-[applause]

CELY:
I'm like, "Why?

Why would you do this to me?"

I'm immediately
shaking in my boots.

TYSON:
You're welcome, James.

You owe me big-time.

Tonight,
you are playing Knot So Fast.

As you can see, there are
two giant pyramids in the Arena.

There's also 250 feet
of rope for each team.

I'm gonna strap one side
of that rope to your back.

When I say go, you are gonna
climb in, out and around

that pyramid, making it
as hard as you can to unravel,

because after 20 minutes,
you're gonna trade places

and then undo
what your opponent just did.

First team to completely
unravel their rope

and put it in the circle

will win tonight's elimination
round, stay in the game.

Loser goes home. Got it?

-Got it.
-Good luck.

I think the biggest thing
is focus and peace.

I don't want to be frazzled.

I don't want to be
caught off guard.

JAVONNY:
Yeah! I'm ready to go, yeah!

-Let's go!
-Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

JAVONNY:
Let's go! Hey! Hey!

-[chuckles]
-Hey, I'm talking to you, hey!

Hey, let's go! Yeah, let's go!

You know, I'd rather save
my energy for the game

-and not before.
-Yeah, we don't pass out

on 22 stories and steps.

Yeah, we ready to go.

We'll let the victory
be loud for us.

TJ:
And one more thing, guys,

whoever wins this...

...wins their opponents'
entire Challengeaccount.

Loser goes home empty-handed.

Ready?

-Go.
-[air horn blows]

Come on, Azah.

Don't stop.

-Come in. You good?
-Mm-hmm.

KYLAND:
I'm pulling the slack.

And you pull there,
you pull there.

Okay. All right.

-[applause]
-Let's go, guys!

CELY:
Pull that, pull that,
pull all that.

Come on, Javonny.

CASHAY:
Help him out, help him out.

Oh-- Help him out.

[grunts]
Come on. Climb under.

Come on, Javonny. Pull it.

The end of the day,
it is an opportunity

to show people not to mess
with Love Island,

because we got
a whole lot to offer,

and if you throw us
in elimination rounds,

we will be coming back.

[both grunting]

KYLAND:
Az, you're pulling me back.

-AZAH: I'm pulling it, but...
-Then there's no--

I didn't realize
you were getting caught.

-Just let me know.
-AZAH: Okay.

Me and Kyland have a bit
of an interesting history.

We were both in the same
Big Brotheralliance,

but we kind of couldn't really
stand each other in the house.

-Switch with me?
-Okay.

-Oh, wait, we can't.
-I can't switch.

No worries, you're good.

But we're partners.

This isn't just me.
This is Kyland.

Kyland's been training
for this for months.

I have to dig super deep
in order to get this win.

KYLAND:
Stand up-- Use your legs.
There we go.

Keep moving, keep moving!

Rope through there.
I'll follow you.

-[grunts]
-Oh.

CASHAY:
Yes, yes,

yes, yes.

Keep going, Cel.

CELY:
Pull it tight.

-Under, under, Javonny.
-JAVONNY: This way, this way.

CASHAY:
Yes! Get low, get low.

You can hop over
and start pulling it into here.

TIFFANY:
He should be doing this

and she should be doing that.

Kyland and I have
a very special bond.

He gets me, I get him.

I don't think anyone
has my back in here

like he would,
so I need him here.

-I'm stuck.
-Okay, thank you.

[grunts]

CELY:
Come on, Javonny.

Power through.

Let's go.

Come on, this is what
we've been training for.

All this,
let's just start knotting it.

Come on. Go, go, go,
just to start doing this.

[cheering, applause]

KYLAND: Keep going, Azah.
You're doing great.

Azah, wait, don't fall.

Azah, ready? Azah.

Push, push.

CELY:
All this extra,
let's just knot it.

-Go under that, go under that.
-Push through.

Now go this way.

DEREK: They might need
to cut that rope. Shit.

-[chuckles]: I know, right?
-Like, get a chain saw.

[whooping]

-CELY: Come on, Javonny.
-ALYSSA: Work together,
work together.

CELY:
It's anybody's game,
let's go under this. Let's go.

KYLAND:
I'm giving them
another hard-ass knot.

You got to keep moving.

-[cheering]
-Five!

Put it over your head.
Put this over your head.

TJ:
Four! Three! Two!

-Time!
-[air horn blows]

-[cheering, applause]
-Good job, everyone!

Good job, everyone!

All right, let's switch them up.

SHAN:
Azah,

you got this, Azah,
you've got this.

AZAH:
My eyelashes

are completely gone
at this point,

but I really, honestly,
don't even care.

I didn't come in this challenge
to look pretty.

Right now, I need to win.

All right, you ready?

SHANNON:
Come on, Javonny!

This is what you came for.
Come on!

[cheering, applause]

-Go!
-[air horn blows]

SHANNON:
You got it, come on!

Let's go Celybird!

[Javonny grunts]

SHANNON:
Here we go.

Yes!

SHAN:
Come on, Azah!

Come on, Azah,
go under and in and pull!

I can't step inside.

CELY:
With all this over that way,
either way,

we could still get
all the rope over the inside.

-Looking good.
-CASHAY: Cely is, like,

barking orders,
she's killing it.

Like, she's fighting
for her life.

Big Brotherwants to rule
this whole thing and have,

like, a bunch of Big Brother
people in the final, so...

it's important to knock
their numbers down.

-Want to go under there, Azah?
Go under.
-I'm stuck.

-TJ: Both teams struggling.
-Oh, my God.

-Get over. Let's go,
let's go, let's go.
-All right, hold on.

-Pull this over, let's go.
-TJ: It's anybody's game.

[shouts]

Azah, I need you to pull again.
It's too heavy for me.

Pull that, pull that.

KYLAND:
Azah, pull.

-Go. Pull.
-[both grunting]

KYLAND:
Please, pull. Azah.

-[cheering, applause]
-TJ: Both teams struggling.

CELY:
Come on, don't stop,
don't stop, don't stop.

Come on. Pull that, pull that.

-Pull all that.
-[grunts]

Cely got the fire,

she got the heart,

I'm in it to win it.

Keep pulling that rope!

Yeah, Cely.

-[grunting]
-Come on!

-It's anyone's game.
-KYLAND: Keep going, Azah.

-You're doing great.
-SHAN: Come on, Azah,
go under and in and pull.

Good job, Azah.

-[grunts]
-TJ: Ooh-ooh!

Kyland working overtime.

JUSTINE:
I'm super frustrated

with Tyson and Angela.

It is hard to watch.

I can't even get myself
to, like, yell anything,

cheer her on, I'm just literally
there frozen, like, praying.

I'm literally, like,

talking to God like,
"Please, help my good sis."

ALYSSA:
You got it. Come on!

Let's go, Az, this is it!

See? Wait, wait,
I can untangle this piece now.

-[cheering, applause]
-TYSON: Find the loops

-and get under them.
There you go.
-ANGELA: Nice.

CELY:
If we can get ev--
all of it into the middle.

CASHAY:
Cely, you guys are still in it.
Keep going!

-Okay, wait, wait.
One, two, three.
-Okay.

Javonny, if we literally just...
Let's go, let's go.

Go to the circle
and start pulling that rope.

KYLAND:
Okay, Azah, let's just jump.

-Come with me.
-[cheering, applause]

They need to start pulling,
pulling that rope.

-KYLAND: Don't stop.
-AZAH: I'm not stopping.

Keep going, Azah.

SHANNON:
You got it.

Come on! Pull!

-Check.
-[air horn blows]

Wow.

[cheering, applause]

[panting]

Damn.

Sucks to lose
and it sucks to suck.

It sucks. A lot.

-Good job, good job.
-And I told you...
Sorry, I'm drooling on you.

It's okay.

-[whooping]
-Yes! Yes!

KYLAND:
First winners of first
elimination, 1-0 record.

Let's go!

AZAH:
Hey, Mama, hey, Mama!

-I won my first challenge!
-Hey!

-Great game, everyone.
-[cheering, applause]

Good job, guys.

Unfortunately, Javonny, Cely,

you lost tonight's
elimination round,

so this ends your time
here on The Challenge.

Take care of yourselves.

-Thank you. I love you guys!
-Bye, guys.

Even though
I'm the first one out,

like, I think I definitely
surprised myself

and proved that, like,
I'm a fighter.

I definitely would
want to come back

and be a little bit
more strategic next time.

[cheering, applause]

JAVONNY:
It sucks, man.

We fought hard,
we give everything we got,

and... I'm still cracking jokes.

Still being who I am.

It don't change nobody, baby.

KYLAND:
You guys are awesome.

[wolf whistling]

Obviously don't want to see
my best friend go home.

Um, that's my number one
in here.

The only person I really trust,

and playing this game
without her like this

is gonna be really, really hard.

Tyson and Angela,

I'm feeling a little vengeful.

Azah, Kyland,
kept quiet until it counted.

Congratulations to both of you.

Incredible job.
Go ahead and rejoin the group.

You are still in the game
and you know what?

You each have
an extra thousand dollars

that you took
from your opponents.

Congratulations.

[cheering, applause]

Great job.

Now... I have
one more thing to show you.

[contestants murmuring]

TIFFANY: I don't know
what TJ has up his sleeve,

and TJ thinks
that everything's funny,

and nothing that TJ
thinks is funny is funny to me.

[laughs]

KYLAND:
Oh, TJ,

what you doing to us?

I'm not sure
to be excited or scared.

DANNY:
My heart drops.

I really don't like twists,
so I'm super nervous.

DEREK:
About to open this door?

The anticipation.

-What? No.
-[all oohing]
-What the fuck?

-TASHA: Is it gonna
do it at random?
-BEN: Yeah.

TASHA:
It's gonna do it at random?

The Algorithm is a program

to randomly select
your new teammates...

...every elimination...

...so that you never have
the same teammate twice,

till it's not possible anymore,

and then you will never have
the same teammate

twice in a row.

Holy crap.

-It's been fun.
-It was a good run.

It sucks that I have
to leave Angela.

We were looking forward
to continuing

the partnership
and just steamrolling our way

to the end, which,
now it's all by chance.

XAVIER:
Aw, damn. Aw, damn.

Now you can't just
use your numbers

to steamroll the competition.

Now, you have to try
to navigate

a twist that could
essentially put

anybody in jeopardy

on any given challenge,
in any given week.

Yeah, this-this game
just got a lot harder.

The Algorithm is cute and all,
but I love to be in control

of my own fate,
and who knows what that thing

has in store for us?
