The Challenge

Hanging Tough (12x3)

Udgivelsesdato: Jun 05, 2006

Trust and support go hand-in-hand this week on the challenge when Diem confesses to her partner Derrick that she is suffering from ovarian cancer. The tragic news drives Derrick to give his all and make a difference in Diem's life. At the challenge it is a test of strength: The male on each team must hang upside down from a crane, holding their partner's arms as they dangle over water. Coral and Evan, yet again, choose the line-up and, yet again, target the Austin cast as they send Melinda and Ryan alongside Wes and Casey to be the first on the crane. Water becomes the main factor as each team's grip slowing breaks apart. When Coral and Evan come out as the winners again, Evan wonders, "Why do they even bother showing up?" They decide to send Melinda and Ryan into exile... what a surprise! Later that night at Deliberation, it's a battle of love as Wes decides to vote himself into Exile and asks everyone else to do the same instead of sending Johanna. There are waterworks when Johanna bursts into tears, asking how could she possibly stay knowing Wes went home for her? The rest of the cast obliges though, and sends Wes into Exile. The dramatics may never end, even down under!
