The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras Recap: Have It Your Way
A Whoppers-fueled episode propels us toward the endgame.
In an old-school throwback, Burger King is the sponsor of this week’s challenge, which means the cast gets a break from hunching over in their tiny hobbit kitchen to make sandwiches with questionable cold cuts and can instead enjoy a pile of Whoppers that have been sitting out in a production tent for three hours. Now that the men, with the exception of Derek and Cory, have a pretty good sense that they’ve made it through the last round of cuts, Bananas decides to try to psych out Kyland by opining about how miserable finals are: They’re long, you don’t sleep, they make you wish you had never signed your soul away to MTV, etc., etc. She hasn’t talked game with him, or really anyone outside of Bananas, all season, yet believes he’s going to be receptive to her Q4 Hail Mary, which she delivers about as tactfully as a Pilates instructor “praising” you for a “great modification.” According to Jenny, Derek owes her safety because eight weeks ago, when she had won the daily, she sent in Cory instead of him.
