01x04 - The Main Drag

Post by bunniefuu »

Previously on "Fear Factor:
House Of Fear"...

I am shook.
Zach just completely lied to us.

Wild.

I don't give a [ bleep ]
about anybody else.

Oh, man, I'm glad I'm up here.

It felt like I was on a team
that I was just the outlier.

She needs to go.
I have a master plan.

- Obviously,
Tyler's name comes up.
- She's our mama.

We're going to do everything
we can to save her.

If you could help us in that,
that would be smart
for you for the future.

- I'm going to have
to say Tyler.
- [ bleep ]

- That's a terrible move.
- Oh, Tyler has a snake
around her arm.

- [ hissing ]
- Push it off!

- Blake's got it!
- [ groans ]

Mama Bear is leaving the house.
My plan came to light!

You just went from
public enemy number one to me!

If that's how he wants
to play this game, so be it.

- The rivalry begins.
- [ hissing ]

Did I just k*ll the vibe
in this house?

- [ whispered cheering ]
- [ giggling ]

- Our acting tonight?
- I want to give you a hug.

All of a sudden,
I'm not feeling so sad about
sending home Tyler.

Just kidding.
I was never sad.

I was loving
every second of that.

- You guys see me
pacing up there?
- Yes!

I acted like
I didn't have those three names
picked hours before.

You were like,
"I'm still thinking."

- The boys were just spiraling.
- For the record,

I never actually told them
I would keep Tyler safe.

Blake stuck to his word
and that really showed me

that I have an ally
in this competition.

He's a teacher and very smart.

And he also has
that social strategic brain
just like me,

and I think we're going to be
a powerhouse team.

You flipped the house
upside down.

That sucked so bad.

Yeah.

The key is self-preservation.
That's priority number one.

- I feel like
I'm in class right now.
- [ laughing ]

- He's going to regret that.
- Trust me, I'm onto that.

He's going to have to be gone.
It's just a matter of when.

Blake chose to be
a villain, and if that's how
he wants to play this game,

he's going to regret
that decision.

Yeah, absolutely.

Do I owe somebody a foot rub?

Yes, you do! Right here!

In the Endgame, I made
a lot of the house very mad,

but I did get
some positives from it.

Damienne and Danielle
both promised me a foot rub

if I kept them
out of that elimination.

Please don't pick me, Blake.

I will rub your feet,
because you're going to
get through this!

- You get one foot,
I'll get the other foot.
- Oh, my God.

Oh, my goodness.
It's so relaxing.

But you kept me in the house.
I got you, bruh.

As the owner of a salon,
I need to make sure my clients

not only look good,
but they feel good.

The way you stood
your ground with me last night?
You deserve this, baby.

I'm massaging those feet, baby,
because I need to make sure

if he is ever in that position
again, he don't pick me.

That was perfect.

That felt so good.
Thank you all.

- You're welcome.
- I'm going to go wash my hands.

All we can do is bounce back.

And especially as y'all girls,

like, it's been three girls
going home.

- It's crazy.
- Tyler would want y'all

to fight to make sure
that it doesn't stay that way.

Right, the pattern
doesn't continue.

- Yeah.
- How you guys feeling?

Tyler, she kind of
reminded me of my mom,

so it kind of just gave me
the comfort of home for me.

- Yeah.
- So seeing her leave yesterday,

it hit a little harder
than I thought it would have.

- Yeah.
- I'm pissed, man.

Literally the whole point
of being in alliance

with Blake was to save Tyler.

This was a chance for him
to show that we could trust him,

and he completely blew it.

You guys looked hella surprised

- when it happened.
- Yeah.

We were just like,
okay, he's a villain.

Blake, he snaked us,
and he just basically put up
a bounty for himself.

- It just hit me really hard.
- Yeah.

Total 180.

I think Blake is playing
both sides of the house,

and it's a pretty
dangerous game.

I'm completely set on getting
Blake out of this game now.

Zach, how are you feeling
about possible challenges?

What do you think
you could see today?

- Water. Everyone's
scared of water.
- Everyone thinks water.

- It could be large animals.
- Like, oh, my God.

When it involves
these live animals for me,

it's like my body
literally freezes.

Animals are gonna feel
your energy.

You need to be...
[ exhales ]

I'm just scared
about breaking a hip.

I am scared of
breaking a bone here.

Maybe we'll get mauled
by something. That'd be fun.

- Death is not a fear for you?
- No.

'Cause if it's my time to go,
it's my time to go.

I just don't understand that.

At the end, someone is
going to be hurt leaving here,
and I just hope it's not me.

You can sense
the tension in the house.

The air's getting thick.

I was an undercover
for three and a half years,

so you're always thinking
one step ahead.

- I'm beat up already.
- I know. Bruised as hell.

We're getting beat up here.

I'm trying to do some recon
about people's biggest fears.

I may be the oldest
player in the game,

but I want to win
to prove to myself

I'm still a force
to be reckoned with

and I should be
taken seriously.

No, dude, I can't hear.

Dude, you're blowing my cover.

I was trying
to remain low-key,

but I just put
a target on my head.

[ music playing ]

- What the hell?
- Oh.

- Oh, my God.
- Looks like a race
of some sort.

Obstacle course?

All right, if that's the start,
where's the finish?

- Hello.
- Johnny.

Welcome back.
You guys have overcome a lot
of fear up until this point.

Here's another one
for you to face.

This challenge will test
your fear of big animals

and shoulder dislocations.

We call it the Main Drag.

- Giddy-up!
- [ neighing ]

- No.
- Oh!

- [ gasping ]
- All right!

What is going on?

- Wait, what?
- [ neighing ]

Stampede of horses?
Keep it away from me.

I do not want
to ride a horse.

- [ neighing ]
- Ooh, that one's excited!

Shut up. No.

Johnny:
Oh, that horse is feisty.

Ugh. My God.

- [ bleep ]
- For this challenge,

- you will be doing this.
- Why is she holding on to it?

- Wait.
- Wait, wait, wait.

We're getting dragged, y'all.

- Oh, hell no.
- What?

- Giddy-up.
- No, no.

- [ bleep ]
- Oh, hell, no.

- Whoo!
- Johnny: One at a time,

you will hang onto a rope

and be dragged
by a horsey across this,

our human shuffleboard,

where you are the puck.

- Are you kidding me?
- The hell?

You must let go at the perfect
moment to score some points,

because wherever
the top of your head lands,
that's your score.

- The top. Okay.
- The winner will be
whoever can land closest

to the end of the board
without going over.

The man and woman
with the highest score
will be safe from elimination.

- Mm.
- Let's go.

They will have the power
to choose one player
for the Endgame.

And whoever they choose,
just like before,

that player will have
the power to choose three other
players to compete against.

And I just want you to remember,
a horse can kick in 0.3 seconds,

and human reaction is 1.6,
so good luck.

[ groans ]

Lance, you look upset.

I was bucked off a horse
at seven years old.

My stepdad was a farmer.

We would go
to his parents' farm,

and just seeing them even, like,

getting all set up, like,
scares the heck out of me.

You got this.

All right, we did a random draw
to decide the order.

- Lance.
- Oh, my God.

- You're up first.
- Come on, Lance.

I'm telling myself
just hold on very tight.

But I don't know how
I'm going to accomplish this.

- Come on!
- Let's go, baby.

- [ overlapping chatter ]
- Come on, Lance. You got this.

The seven-year-old kid inside
of me is really petrified.

- It's like total PTSD.
- Okay.

Just having the horse,
the smell,

the feel so close to me...

- [ all murmuring ]
- Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

...I'm literally freaking out.

[ bleep ]

- Oh.
- Damn.

That's crazy.

Holy [ bleep ].
That horse is feisty.

But I have to contain it
and get it together.

Dida and Ethan love to feel
like they're running the show.

I want to show those young
bucks that I am a competitor.

Okay, Lance.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

[ grunting ]

Okay. Unh! [ bleep ]

Johnny: Hold on!

- [ woman screams ]
- All: Oh!

- My God.
- Oh, my God!

[ grunting ]

[ bleep ]

Johnny: Hold on!

[ bleep ]

- Oh!
- Whoa.

Johnny:
Yeah! Great job, Lance!
That's a ten.

- Oh, my God.
- [ Johnny laughs ]

That means Lance
is the man to beat.

Amazing job, Lance.

I am literally ecstatic.

To be able to score the
highest possible score I could

during a challenge
where I was petrified?

- Good job, Lance.
- So proud of you!

It shows that I can do
anything I put my mind to.

- k*lled it!
- Crushed it.

- Lance, way to go.
- Let's go.

Wow. That was crazy.

Okay, Blake. You're up.

My heart is racing.

The most terrifying
part of this challenge

is having to get
right behind that horse,

knowing that it
could back up instantaneously
and kick me in the head.

The move I made last night

sending Tyler home was huge.

Now people are coming for me.

Okay, Blake,
when I say go, it's on.

- You ready?
- Ready.

I have to win this challenge.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

[ bleep ]

[ grunting ]

Johnny:
Oh, boy. Here we go.

- [ grunting ]
- Oh, he's so far over.

- Wow.
- Holy crap.

[ groans ]

Oh, my gosh.
That hurt so bad.

I am completely devastated.

It was another challenge
that I did not win.

So that's disheartening.

But hopefully Lance,
my ally in this game,

can pull out a win
and keep me safe.

Johnny: All right, Rob,
show us what you got.

I haven't even started this
thing and I'm shaking already.

Holy [ bleep ].

I definitely do enjoy
a good adrenaline rush

and that's gotten me
into trouble.

Four years ago, I had
a skateboarding incident.

We were going full speed
on the side of this highway
and I crashed.

[ horns honking ]

Then I see my leg flop around
and almost hit me in the face.

And that's when I knew
my life would change forever.

I've been afraid of things

that will break
more of my body,

and I'm here on "Fear Factor"
to get over that.

Are you ready? All right.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

Oh, my God.

[ moans ]

[ bleep ]

[ moans ]

- Oh! Too far.
- [ groaning ]

I got a zero.
I'm so disappointed in myself.

But the good news is
I didn't hurt myself again.

It hurts sliding through there.
It's not fun.

I've been holding
this big fear

that's so much bigger
than it actually is,

and I was able
to overcome that.

Johnny:
You got this, Rodney.

- [ grunting ]
- I am definitely worried.

People might assume mullet,

cut-off flannels,
stuff like that,

- "I bet he rides horses."
- Johnny: Here we go. Oh!

- Oh, my God.
- Wow. Rodney, you went too far.

- But I'm terrified.
- Atta-boy, Zach.

- Yeah, Zach!
- Johnny: Oh, he's holding on.
He's holding on.

Zach: Yeah! Whoo!

Johnny:
Oh, that's a seven.
That's a seven.

- Aw, your pants fell down!
- [ laughing ]

- Oh, Lord.
- Your pants!

- Oh, my gosh.
- All right, Lance is still
in the lead with ten.

Wow, it's going to be
super tough to beat that.

Two men are left.
All right, Dida, you ready?

I'm freaking out because
I play professional soccer
for a living.

Please, God,
don't let my ribs break.
I need to win this.

I'm completely set on getting
Blake out of this game.

Ready?

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

[ gasping ]

- [ groaning ]
- Oh, Lord.

- [ grunting ]
- He's got his head up.
He's got his head up.

- [ cheering ]
- Oh, my God!

Johnny: That's close.
Wow! Stay right there.
We have to measure.

- Wow.
- That's so close.

- Oh, my God.
- This is close.

It's going to come down
to whoever got further down
the ten spot.

I am literally shaking
in my boots.

It's so close that it
honestly could go either way.

I want this win so bad.

I want to protect my allies

and I want to be the king
of the drag race.

Yeah, that's going to be
super close, dude.

- Oh, my God.
- Wow.

Holy smokes.

By a few inches,
Dida is the new leader.

- Wow.
- Good job, Dida.

Damn, the guy side
of my alliance

isn't going to win,
and that is a tough pill
to swallow.

All right, Ethan,
it all comes down to you
for the men's competition.

Yep! Whew.

This challenge,
there's a lot at stake here.

I'm going to try to do
everything I can

to keep our alliance safe
and hopefully get Blake out.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

Unh! Oh, my God!

[ grunting ]

I'm a very competitive person
and I don't like losing.

I need to win this for Tyler.

[ grunting ]

Johnny:
All right, he's holding
his head up high.

He's looking, he's looking.
He's-- oh!

- [ all shouting ]
- Holy [ bleep ]!

- Ahh!
- Oh, my God!

I think he's almost to the end.

Oh, my God.

- Ethan takes it!
- [ bleep ]

- Good job, Ethan!
- Congratulations, Ethan.

- He's safe from elimination.
- Oh, my God, bruh.

There's only one thing
left to do.

Blake, you're being sent
to the Endgame.

- Thank you, thank you.
- I'm sorry, man.

All right, first one to go

for the women's competition
is Damienne.

My last horse experience,
a horse took off
with me on it's back.

I was terrified.

Lord, please don't let me
break a bone, Lord.

I have conquered
so many of my fears.

Claustrophobia, heights, fire,
but I'm still not winning.

I need to win
so I can protect my allies.

Ready?

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

Unh!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

[ grunting ]

- Oh, my God!
- Yes, Damienne.

- [ cheering ]
- Yeah!

Johnny: Damienne's on the board
for the women with an eight.

- Yeah!
- Oh, my [ bleep ] God!

Great job, girl.
So proud of you.

Damienne, do you see
what you just did?

- You beat half the men.
- I'm on eight!

- Yeah!
- Whoo!

Yeah! Yay!

[ cheering ]

- I'm talking about eight!
- Damienne's back.

All right, next up
for the women, Jayleen.

[ bleep ]

[ grunts ]
Okay.

Johnny:
All right, ready?

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

- Hang on!
- Hold on!

[ yelps ]

- [ bleep ]
- [ groaning ]

[ bleep ]

Dang it.

I knew that was going to happen.

All right, Danielle,
you need to beat Damienne's
score of eight.

[ horns blaring ]

[ grunting ]

- [ groaning ]
- Oh, man.

She didn't make it
to the scoreboard.

Oh, my-- [ sighs ]

Johnny:
All right, Chelsea, you are
the last female competitor.

To be safe from elimination,

you have to beat
Damienne's score of eight.

- Okay!
- Chelsea has been beasting

through all of the challenges.

She's conquered so many fears.

I've never prayed for someone's
downfall in my life.

But right now,
I need this win.

- Are you ready?
- Yeah.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

[ horse neighing ]

All right, Chelsea,
to be safe from elimination,

you have to beat
Damienne's score of eight.

Okay.

Blake's definitely
at the top of my hit list.

I really want
payback for Tyler,

so I'm ready
for a revenge tour.

- Are you ready?
- Yeah.

I've never prayed for someone's
downfall in my life.

But right now,
I need this win.

- Go!
- [ horns blaring ]

- [ bleep ]
- Aah! Oh, my God!

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
- Damienne, you are the winner
for the women's side.

- Oh, my-- [ laughing ]
- Yes, Damienne!

Johnny: Oh, my God.

Damienne: Aah! Aah!

[ laughing ]

[ Damienne laughing ]

That was so challenging,

but you can't even be sad.

Damienne's just out there
celebrating her win.

I couldn't be
too upset after that.

I'm so proud of her.

[ screaming ]

- Yes!
- I'm always overlooked
and underserved.

But today, baby,
I got that victory,

and I was able to prove,
you know, I belong in this
house, 'cause I do!

Ethan and Damienne, you are
both safe from elimination.

And you will pick one person
to send to our Endgame.

And that person will
drag three more losers into
the elimination.

Come here.
What's going through your mind?

- Mm, I'm nervous.
- Yeah?

Who else would you keep safe
here if it was up to you?

- Just you. Just you.
- Just me?

I don't think they're
going to kiss.

That's really disappointing.

Fear is not a factor when
it comes to kissing Jayleen.

But it's not the most
romantic setting,

and I'm just waiting
for the right moment.

- Don't.
- Don't what? Just relaxing.

Okay, let's get this
[ bleep ] going.

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
- Is it happening?

You should have seen the look
you gave me. You're like...

Yeah, Rob hasn't
gone in for a kiss yet, man.
Why is he so scared?

I mean, Johnny might kiss me
before Rob kisses Jayleen.

[ laughing ]

- [ beep ]
- The First Look is open.

- It's First Look time.
- The light's on? Oh, no.

Don't like it.
I have a bad feeling.

Going into this Endgame,
I need to make sure

I'm in control
of what happens next.

Blake stabbed us in the back,
he lost our trust,

and now he has
a target on his back.

And I haven't talked
any strategy with Damienne
this entire game.

She definitely has some
other alliances in this house,
and they're not with me.

So that kind of scares me
because I feel like

we're on opposite spectrums
of the house.

- Your first time in here?
- I know, right?

- You want to do the honors?
- Let me do the honors.

[ music playing ]

So this is how
the First Look Room looks.

Lance: Trying to make sure
I talk to Damienne

and make sure
she stands her ground,

but I don't think,
strategically,
she thinks like we do.

- Right.
- And it's stressing me out
because do you want

some of your closest allies
to go home when you
finally get your win?

[ bell ringing ]

- Damienne: Oh!
- Ethan: Ooh, slimy.

What?

Damienne:
Ooh. Unh-uh.

Oh, my God.

Aah!

Ethan:
Well, that's gross.

- So stuff's falling
from the ceiling.
- I'm thinking like gooey.

It's not going to be
a strength challenge.

It's going to be
a who can get there faster
a challenge.

- Who are we going to choose?
- I've been thinking a lot--

- Who's your no?
- Hard no, Lance.

- Who do you think my big no is?
- Dida.

- Rob is invincible.
- I feel like he has
these fears,

but he's kind of like me that's
kind of ready to face them.

- Zach is a little squeamish.
- He's not smart, too.

So if it's something--
no offense to Zach.

Maybe he is a super genius,
I don't know,

but I feel like
if it's a puzzle game or
something, he'll freeze up.

I feel like Zach
is going to feel like
we're so against him.

- That's going to be
a whole enemy for nothing.
- I know, but, like--

- He's not going
to understand that.
- Okay, so what?

- Do we throw Chelsea in?
- No girls, for sure.

And Blake?
We want Blake going home.

- I don't know.
- It's a pretty wild duo.

- Why?
- You got kind of two
sides of the house.

Damienne's over there.
Ethan's over here.

You got way
different relationships
between the two of them.

So they got to agree
to somebody and then also try

- and get that person
not to throw up their--
- Their people.

- Their people.
- If I got put up, dude,
I would be upset.

- Yeah.
- Living in the Fear House,

it's like a flashback
to being a teenager.

Growing up, I never
really had true friends.

I definitely feel like
I don't have anybody else to
rely on besides myself.

None of them like me.
I'm worried.

Rob, I don't think you're
even in consideration at all.

And I don't think Ethan would
want you going to the Endgame

because you guys are really
close and everything.

- Yeah.
- So I feel like
you're pretty safe.

Ethan:
All right, we got to talk.

We need to get together with
both of our favorite persons

in the house and make sure
we have a good plan
for tonight.

All right, y'all.
I have a couple ideas.

I'm taking Lance with me
because I want him to know

that I got his back in
whatever decision
that we make.

I'm trying to make sure that
he's safe from the Endgame.

So listen, we don't need none
of the ladies going in.

- None of the ladies.
- And, of course, we cannot have
Dida or Lance going.

Exactly, and I knew that.

Rodney is-- like,
no one knows about Rodney.

I just think personally,
like, let's be real.

Rodney is a secret assassin.

He gives a weird energy for me.

I honestly just sense him
as that cop

that's just investigating
every single person.

- Ethan, Damienne...
- Damienne. Mm-hmm.

...Lance, and Dida,
they're all in the room.

Why Lance and Dida though?

Because those
are probably the ones
that are untouchable.

- Those four are in the room.
- We need Lance in there

- because we don't want Ethan
and Dida to strong arm this.
- Yeah, yeah.

And I know for a fact
Lance will not let them
strong arm it.

I don't think
Damienne will either,

- but I know Lance won't.
- Let's just think.

- Who should
we think, logically?
- Okay, how about this?

How about this?
We pick Dida.

- And Dida picks
the three other people.
- Hell, nah.

I'm like, dude,
are you serious?

What the heck is going on?
I mean, it's insane.

That's the safest.
I'm not taking any ifs,
ands, or buts, okay?

No, no.
It's not my win.

That's what we're doing.
I'm sorry.

That's what we're doing.

Okay, how about this? I kind of
came up with a little idea.

- We pick Dida.
- Hell, nah.

And Dida picks
the three other people.

This is
the best chance we have

of getting a guy
out of the house.

And y'all sure as heck, though?

Volunteering Dida
into an Endgame,

it's scary,
but I think it would be smart

regarding keeping
our alliance safe.

He'll be able to choose who
he's fighting this out with

and set himself up for
as much success as possible.

You got to think also though,
it's like politics, y'all.

It's never going to be perfect.
What is your other option?

I'm cool with it.
Let's do it.

This is a huge risk,
but I have to be picked.

Control is super important.

It would be so glorious
to pull this off.

I kind of love this.
I love that you're down.

It's scary though, Dida.
I'm not even going to lie.

We never want our closest ally
going home on our nomination.

We're doing this?

I feel so powerless
in this moment

knowing he's going to
call out Blake,

and Blake could possibly
have his swan song tonight.

Literally puts a ball
in my stomach.

[ music playing ]

Oh, my God.

- What in the world is this?
- What the heck is this?

- Good to see you.
- Okay, I've never seen anything
like this before.

- What in the world?
- It smells, baby.

- Dumpsters.
- What is this?
What is in there?

[ gagging ]

Welcome to the Endgame.

We call this challenge
Get A Grip.

You are about to face a fear

that makes pretty much
everyone freak out.

- Germs.
- [ groaning ]

Oh, my God.

They can make you feel sick
or they can make you dead.

- [ groaning ]
- Oh, my God.

I've got major OCD.

I like everything
to be clean, tidy.

I do not want germs
all over me, all up
in my nose and my mouth.

- It's disgusting.
- Everyone in this challenge

will get their very own
garbage chute to stand under.

Sliding out of these
will be bin juice,

a liquid c*ck of things
that once squawked, squealed,
and now stink.

- Ugh.
- And along with it,
a terrible object

will fall out
that you have to catch.

- Sheep heads, cow feet...
- Ugh!

...and even a full-on carcass.

If you catch it,
then you will race to
your very own dumpster,

dive in,
and dig through all the rotten,

- putrid, smelly stuff inside...
- [ groaning ]

...until you find the object
that matches yours

- and place it on the table.
- Disgusting, dude.

The first person to do so
scores a point.

This cycle of catching,
running, and dumpster diving
then repeats.

Whoever fails
to score two points
will be eliminated.

Ethan and Damienne,
you won our challenge.

You are "Fear Factor's"
Drag Race king and queen.

- Here we go!
- You get to choose one player

to put into
our elimination challenge.

But be careful who you pick,
because that person

gets to choose three more losers
to drag into the elimination.

It's a power shift that
could wreck your entire game.

You were here last night.
You saw what happened.

Ethan, Damienne, please come up
here and stand next to me.

Who are you putting in?

Dida.

Why did you choose Dida?

We gave him now the opportunity

to have a little bit of power,
and I think he wants
a chance to prove himself.

- All right, Dida,
can you stand under the tubes?
- You got it.

- Let's go, boy.
- You're the first person

that I've seen be picked for
the Endgame and you're psyched.

Yeah, I'm a competitor at heart,
so this is right up my alley.

All right, Dida,
it's your decision.

Who would you like
in the elimination?

First one...

- Blake.
- Wow.

I don't think we need a reason.

All right,
who's joining us next?

My boy Zach.

Johnny: Oh, Zach.

How you feeling about being
put in the Endgame, Zach?

I'm giving it my all,
try my best,

and at the end of the day,
if I go home, I go home.

But if I get to go back
to the house,

then I'm going to be
happy, you know?

- Who's the last one, Dida?
- Last one is...

- Rodney.
- [ sighing ]

[ bleep ]

It's definitely a gut punch.

I thought my social game
was on point,

but maybe I could
have been more sociable,

especially with
those two guys.

All right, everybody,
let's do this.

Someone will be out of
the running of $200,000 tonight.

Do not let it be you.

I've studied biology.
I know about germs.

This is going to suck.

But the only thing I can do

is use this as an opportunity.

I'm gunning for Dida.

Remember, you have to catch
what's dropped

to get in the dumpster
to find the match.

Eyes up, arms out,

and trust me, mouths closed.

Oh, my God.

It's probably
going to be disgusting,

nasty dumpster juice.

[ music playing ]

Ready, set...

And I'm panicking.
I have to do this.

I cannot go home.

- Drop!
- Oh, my God!

[ screaming ]

Johnny:
You need to score two points
to be safe from elimination.

Ready...

Drop!

[ bleep ]

How about a little cow tongue?

- Unh-uh!
- Only Rodney caught his.

- Oh!
- That means he's
the only player

with a chance
to score a point here.

With 30 seconds on the clock,

he has to jump into his dumpster
to try and find the match.

Ready, set, go!

Oh, that water's disgusting.

- [ all groaning ]
- [ Johnny laughs ]

I see what's in there,
and it's absolutely awful.

- Get in there, Rodney.
- As an ex-detective,

I had to deal with
some disgusting scenes.

This is a different level.

You're losing time, Rodney.

- Oh!
- Rodney found it.

He gets one point.

Eww, the water is so brown.

Ready, set...

Drop!

- A whole salmon.
- [ all groaning ]

Oh! Blake and Zach
caught theirs.

Nice work.

Okay, this time it's a race,
all right?

Ready, set, go!

Who can find
the matching salmon first?

Eww! Eww!

- Ugh.
- Good job, Zach.

That dumpster is stinking.

- Oh, my God.
- Get up in there.
Don't be scared.

Johnny: Hope you don't have
any open wounds

'cause they're
gonna get infected.

- [ gagging ]
- Get your hair wet.
Get that mullet wet.

Zach has been bullying me
and targeting the women,

so if he's going home,
no skin off my back.

[ clicks tongue ]
You know?

- Oh!
- Oh!

- All right.
- [ bleep ]

- Oh, my--
- Oh, my gosh!

- [ gagging ]
- Zach in record time.

- He gets one point.
- [ grunts ]

Rodney and Zach both
have one point apiece.

I'm getting very worried.

I'm not the most athletic
person in the world,

and I am struggling.

Johnny: Still waiting
on that first catch, Dida.

That's all right, Dida.

I'm stressing,
and I'm second-guessing

why I volunteered for this.
I just can't see anything.

My goggles are
starting to fog up.

But I've got to lock in
or I'm going home.

Ready, set...

Drop!

- Oh!
- What the hell is that?

- Ugh.
- Zach, Dida, and Blake

- all caught cow heart.
- Oh!

All right, now this is a race
between you three. Go!

- [ bleep ]
- Okay, kids, who will find
the identical heart

- floating in the dumpster?
- Come on, D.

- Stay calm.
- Who's going to find
theirs first?

Zach and Rodney
only need one more to be safe.

- Oh!
- [ coughing ]

- Ooh.
- Zach, you are safe from
elimination.

Wow, you got it done, Zach!

Zach, how's it feel
to be safe from elimination?

Feels great.
It just shows, you know,

people underestimate me a lot,
but every time, here I am.

Dida, are you regretting who
you put into the competition?

Hell, no.

All right, we're down to Dida,
Blake, and Rodney.

Rodney's got one point.

Ready, set, drop!

[ bleep ]

- Cow feet.
- Nasty.

- Damn.
- Ooh!

Dida and Blake,
you guys know the drill.

Go!

- Whoa!
- [ groaning ]

- Get out of here.
- Not the pig head.

- That is definitely not it.
- [ gagging ]

- That's gross.
- Unh-uh!

- Oh!
- Oh!

Blake! Hey, here we go!

- Blake got his first match.
- Good job, Blake.

- Wow.
- Whoa.

- Thanks.
- Dida's struggling,

and that is motivating me.

If I can knock out Dida,
a huge threat,

this would be
the best night of my life.

All right, the score stands
Rodney one, Blake one,

and Dida's still waiting
on that first point.

- You got this, Dida.
- Get one, Dida.

I'm freaking out a little bit,
I'm not going to lie.

My plan is completely
backfiring.

I look over at my boy Ethan,
and he looks really worried.

My confidence now
is at an all-time low.

I'm thinking,
"[ bleep ], Dida.

What did you get yourself into?"

If Rodney or Blake
win one more point,

they'll be safe
from elimination.

Ready, set...

Drop!

- [ squelching ]
- [ groaning ]

The score stands
Rodney one, Blake one,

and Dida still waiting
on that first point.

Do your thing, Dida.
Do your thing.

Ready, set, drop!

- [ gagging ]
- Fish heads!

- [ groaning ]
- I knew it smelled like fish.

Johnny:
Blake, you dropped yours.
Just Rodney and Dida.

- Ready, go!
- [ gagging ]

Let's go, guys.

Johnny:
If Rodney finds his match first,

he is safe from elimination.

- [ gagging ]
- Let's go, let's go,
let's go, let's go.

- [ groaning ]
- Ooh. Unh-uh.

- Oh!
- What the hell is that?

Johnny: Get in there, fellas.
Someone's going home tonight.

- And the point goes to Dida.
- Atta-boy.

Dida is on the board.
All right.

- You're back in it.
- Ready, set, drop!

- A whole rabbit.
- No!

- [ groaning ]
- I don't like that.

Johnny:
All three caught theirs.

Ready, set, go!

First to find the match

survives to fight another day.

- It's a battle.
- Oh, man.

- Oof.
- Come on, guys.

- Quick, guys.
- [ groaning ]

- Quick!
- Oh!

Johnny:
Dida nailed it.

- Yeah!
- [ bleep ]

- Yeah!
- Atta-boy, D!

- Dida is safe from elimination.
- Yes! Yes!

- Atta-boy, D!
- I survived.

- Thank God.
- Yuh!

- Eww!
- Don't come over here.

- Oh, he stinks!
- Don't come over here.

It all comes down to this.
Winner's safe, loser goes home.

- Come on!
- Let's go, guys.

Ready, set, drop.

- It's a sheep head.
- Oh!

- [ gagging ]
- Oh!

- [ squealing ]
- God.

- Blake and Rodney
both caught it.
- Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

A nugget?

High drama here, folks.

Ready, set, go!

- Come on!
- Let's go, guys!

- Oh. Oh, here we go.
- This is it, guys.

- This is for all the marbles!
- This is it, come on.

- For all the marbles!
- Oh!

- Come on, y'all.
- You got it.

- You got it.
- You guys better hurry!

[ groaning ]

- Come on, Rod.
- Ugh.

It's in there. Find it.

Oh!

- Oh!
- [ bleep ]

Johnny:
Blake is safe from elimination.

- Oh, my God.
- That was so quick!

- Oh!
- Let's go!

- Oh!
- Oh, my God, Blake!

Ethan, Dida, you want
that satisfaction of,

"Ha, ha, ha!
We got our revenge."

Nope.

All right, Rodney,
you've unfortunately lost.

I had an awesome time.

It's a once in a lifetime thing,
and I love it.

Well, you conducted
yourself well.

- You should be proud.
- Thank you.

- You did amazing, Rodney.
- Good job, Rodney.

I also want to reveal
to everyone,

everybody was asking me
my story.

I'm actually a retired
New York City detective.

- [ screaming ]
- I did 25 years.

I told you!
Didn't I tell you?

- I told them!
- Oh, my God!

- What did I say?
- That was so sneaky!

Who's the detective now, huh?

I can't hug you.

- Bye, Rodney!
- [ overlapping chatter ]

We love you.

This great adventure
has come to an end.

It wasn't exactly
the ending I expected,

but this ex-detective
is feeling pretty good.

This whole "Fear Factor"
adventure is a gift.

Very dramatic day here
on "Fear Factor."

Head to the house,
hose off the bin juice.

- I'll see you tomorrow.
- All right, Johnny.

Bye, Johnny.

I'm tired of Ethan and Dida.

They have thrown me
into every single Endgame.

I'm upset, I'm anxious, I'm mad.

I'm just through with them.

I can smell revenge coming,

and it smells like
this dumpster.

[ music playing ]

Next time
on "Fear Factor"...

I've been [ bleep ] over
twice now.

It's those two
against everybody.

I'm going to do exactly
what I have to do to keep going.

- Either you go big or go home.
- You're making me sick.

It's the sharks
and k*ller whales
I would be thinking of.

- Oh, God.
- Ethan and Dida are literally
running this house.

If I throw this, I could put
them up for elimination.

- Oh, God, be with me.
- It is life or death.

You could literally die.

[ screaming ]
