In another timeline: Ezekiel rejoined in London
It was the end of the challenge, Noah had just gained a huge target on his back thanks to Alejandro, and Duncan had just come back. Unfortunately for him, Ezekiel managed to capture all of the contestants, and team Amazon was last remaining, so Chris had to keep his word, and let Ezekiel rejoin the game, though he had a little fun and taunted Duncan before ejecting him.
With Alejandro's charms in place, he managed to get Ezekiel in his side, and sent home Noah in a 3-2 vote, and he's gone.
Votes:
Noah 3: Alejandro, Tyler, Ezekiel.
Alejandro 2: Noah, Owen.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah.
The next challenge was themed in Greece, which Courtney and Alejandro had to correct Chris. With Gwen and Courtney's friendship aiming high, the other three members of team Amazon are a little nervous.
Ezekiel was ecstatic about surviving an elimination, so Alejandro used this opportunity to make his ego grow larger, while Owen just keeps his head down, knowing he would be next.
In the end, thanks to Tyler's strength, team Chris won, and team Amazon collectively decided that it was Cody's lousy attempt at the tiebreaker that made them lose, and the geek was pushed out the plane.
Cody 3: Gwen, Heather, Courtney.
Heather 1: Sierra
Sierra 1: Cody
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody.
The next challenge was to raid Area 51, in which Gwen complained about how dangerous the challenges were, while Ezekiel just competed with joy.
With Cody gone, Sierra was an emotional wreck like she was in Paris. Heather tried to use her as an ally, though it didn't work, as she knew she voted for him.
Tyler was no stranger to pain, as he was able to traverse the facility impressively well, even if it ended with him in a body cast. With this being the case, Chris decided to just make it a reward challenge to prevent lawsuits.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody.
Chris took the two teams to Australia, in which they had to ride emus to start bungee jumping for sheep. With Tyler and Ezekiel on team Chris, they did exceptionally well.
Team Amazon however, was a tad bit of a wreck. Sierra was still balling over Cody, and Heather just stood out of the spotlight for one of the first times in her life.
Alejandro decided to make work on Courtney, straining her relationship with Gwen. Gwen was a little suspicious of Alejandro, and they were only strengthened by Heather's accusations.
Team Amazon lost once again, and knowing that Alejandro could gain allies, Heather formed a temporary alliance to get Courtney out. Sierra luckily beat Courtney in the tie, and the CIT was sent kicking and screaming to the ground.
Votes:
Courtney 2: Sierra, Heather.
Sierra 2: Gwen, Courtney.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney.
With Courtney gone, Gwen stepped up her work extra hard on team Amazon, while Owen did the same for team Chris.
Ezekiel was getting a little suspicious of Alejandro, while Tyler was doing the same, though Alejandro hadn't picked up on that yet.
In the end, Owen's cannonball Viking strategy ended up winning for team Chris, but thankfully for Gwen, it was a reward challenge, so nobody was sent home.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney.
In the next challenge, Chris took the final seven to Niagara Falls, where he announced the merge, and a new contestant coming into the game named Blaineley.
He put the contestants into pairs for a wedding: Heather and Alejandro, Ezekiel and Gwen, Owen and Blaineley, and Tyler and Sierra.
The first part of the challenge was to guide their wives to a dress, which Gwen was annoyed by how girly it was, and was also annoyed by Ezekiel's small hints of sexism, though he swore he changed.
The next part was a tightrope challenge, where not even Tyler could stand Sierra's craziness and crying.
By the end of the challenge, Tyler and Sierra managed to get to the end first, winning the challenge. With his two allies getting suspicious and Tyler being immune, Alejandro blindsided Ezekiel by getting the girls to vote him off, reminding them of his sexist remarks.
Votes:
Ezekiel 5: Alejandro, Heather, Sierra, Gwen, Blaineley.
Alejandro 3: Tyler, Ezekiel, Owen.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel.
By the next episode, the challenge was set in China, and the final seven would have to race to the finish line on the Great Wall of China. In the end, Owen was the only one who wasn't able to make it to the other side, and was excluded from the challenge.
The next part was an eating challenge, which Alejandro admit that he was dreading all season, but decided to secretly feed his food to Owen.
Blaineley has a secret alliance with Chef, and was fed better food than the others, which Gwen and Heather pointed out together, so she had to swap dishes with Sierra, getting her the win.
By the elimination ceremony, the votes were very split. Heather, Tyler, and Owen voted for Alejandro, while Blaineley, Sierra, and Alejandro voted for Gwen, while Gwen voted for Blaineley.
Being short on time, Chris decided to kick them both out. Alejandro sent a hurt look to Heather, breaking her heart in the process, and he and Gwen jumped out the plane.
Votes:
Alejandro 3: Heather, Tyler, Owen.
Gwen 3: Blaineley, Sierra, Alejandro.
Blaineley 1: Gwen.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel, Gwen, Alejandro.
With Alejandro gone, the constants no longer had to worry about their biggest threat in the game, so while Owen and Tyler celebrated, Heather just looked down in sadness.
Sierra shames Blaineley for her alliance with Chef, though she didn't care, and was more just angry that her main way of getting far was gone.
The challenge was a classic safari hunt, which involved hunting down Ezekiel, who had climbed back into the plane, to win invincibility.
Owen was excited, being happy to go on a hunt again like in season one, with Tyler hunting with him. Heather barely even tried, while Blaineley tried her best to get Sierra in a newbies alliance.
By the end of the challenge, Owen won, and Heather was sent home for past actions.
Votes:
Heather 4: Blaineley, Tyler, Owen, Sierra.
Blaineley 1: Heather.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel, Gwen, Alejandro, Heather.
The final four challenge was to gather eggs, and give them back to a condor. Blaineley still rode strong due to her inside information, and Sierra teamed up with her, out of necessity.
Tyler and Owen teamed up once again, and dominated, though Sierra was the one to win immunity.
At the elimination ceremony, Blaineley was announced to be eliminated, but it was a reward challenge, just so Chris could taunt her.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel, Gwen, Alejandro, Heather.
The final four challenge was to find Dino bones, and build a structure. Sierra did the best, with Tyler second, Owen third, and Blaineley last. Sierra and Blaineley spectated due to her voting for Blaineley, so Sierra and Tyler teamed up, with Blaineley and Owen doing the same.
Tyler was annoyed by Sierra, while Sierra was talking to him about Cody and strategy. Despite Sierra's advantage, Tyler's strong fingers were better at digging, and was granted immunity.
With Tyler, Sierra, and Owen all being friends, it came to a surprise to nobody that Blaineley was voted off.
Votes:
Blaineley 3: Sierra, Tyler, Owen.
Sierra 1: Blaineley
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel, Gwen, Alejandro, Heather, Blaineley.
In the final three challenge, Chris took Blaineley away in his own personal chopper, and declared the challenge was a race to Hawaii, last to get there would be eliminated.
Sierra was determined to win for Cody, not letting any of this challenge stuff get in the way of what mattered: winning. Tyler was as confident as ever, defeating the villain twice, and winning the girl of his dreams over, Tyler knew he would win. Owen was feeling the same, making Noah proud, and about to pay off his parent's debt, Owen was determined to win.
After the race was over, Tyler had came first, with Sierra battling with Owen, and took him out of the race, scoring herself a spot in the finale, and getting Owen out of the competition.
Elimination order:
Duncan, Ezekiel, Harold, Bridgette, LeShawna, Lindsay, Izzy, DJ, Noah, Cody, Courtney, Ezekiel, Gwen, Alejandro, Heather, Blaineley, Owen.
With the finale getting ready, the eliminated contestants placed their bets on who they thought they would win: Sierra or Tyler.
Who actually was the winner? Well, you decide.
