are best not mentioned at all.
Needless to say, Erika’s smashed the hourglass (and also went on to eventuallywin the game).
That meant that Sydney Segal who was on the winning team for the challenge ended up voted out.

“We’re told one thing and then something else happens.”
“We’re competitors,“Danny told EWafter he was voted out in sixth place.
And we put a lot on the line and there’s an essence to competition.
You play to win so you’re able to win something, right?
That’s the only reason that you would go out there to compete.
And his response, you know, it was what it was.
I won’t really get into that, but it just didn’t float with me.
So I didn’t like it.”
How much did he not like it?
Do you want to talk with Jeff about this?
He felt that from the rest of the cast too.”
“I was just speaking my mind and saying, ‘Hey, look.
This ain’t right.
This ain’t right.
I’m only competing for a prize.
I’m not competing for anything else.
And when you remove the prize, there’s no reason to compete.'”
And to his credit, the host listened.
So I’m happy.
I lived through it so they don’t have to go through it again.
It would have been horrible.”
“I saw Sydney is Spain recently,” says McCray.
