Who was sent home in “Cheater!

I wonder how long this actually went for because Derrick looks totally exhausted by the end.

I bet this lasted for a while.
He’s also clearly disappointed at his own performance as he rips off his jersey during his exit interview.
But now it’s time for the women!

“We already lost Veronica " he starts to say, and Kailah just screams, “No!”
And both women are absolutelypissed.
This matchup was perfect!

Let them play it out before announcing they both are safe!
We’ve seen that before, so why not let it happen now?!

It’s a nighttime challenge, y’all!

Does that mean this is a purge challenge?
We’re right before the final so that could make sense!
Wes calls for a check first, and got every answer right.

Nehemiah finishes next and he hugs it out with Wes in celebration.
That leaves Brad and Mark for the men, and all the women still left.
Jonna calls for a check next but isn’t correct, and same with Mark.
Finally Mark gets his right, putting Brad in last place.
She goes off on how “disgusted” she is that Kailah would do something like that.
We’re not friends.”
I think literally).
What an incredible, if totally unnecessary, scene to include.
I loved every second of it.
It is wild to see them back on a season together after their romance over a decade ago.
You know the drill.
The pre-final reminiscing is always the same.
And this is a classic final structured as one long race with checkpoints along the way.
Each run is worth points, and each checkpoint is worth points.
The players with the most points win.
Now as for those stars … it’s time to finally learn what they mean!
Everyone else gets nothing.
That can potentially be the difference between winning this whole season and coming in second place.
That’s great for Nehemiah and Jonna, and brutal for everyone else.
Wes keeps motivating Jonna to keep running, while Mark ends up slowing KellyAnne down.
Wes and Jonna make to the first checkpoint, with Nehemiah and Kailah coming in second.
If Kailah and Nehemiah pick them, that’s their matchup.
That means Brad is against Wes when he arrives last, and Nia is against Jonna.
The first player in each heat wins five points, and the loser gets nothing.
Everyone plays at the same time, and they begin immediately.
Jonna is the first woman in the water, but Nia is right behind her too.
KellyAnne is the last to get into the water.
Meanwhile Brad and Wes are locked head to head at their buoy, and Nia passes Jonna.
The tandem bike gives Nia and Nehemiah trouble so Mark and Jonna overtake them for third place.
But pretty soon each pair struggles with the bike, and Mark and Jonna’s chain ends up breaking.
His bike broke the firstAll Starsfinal too so he starts to panic.
Nia and Nehemiah arrive next and Nia picks KellyAnne while Nehemiah picks Brad.
Jonna and Mark arrive last, and they’re automatically forced to go against Kailah and Wes.
Each incorrect star corresponds to a number which they’ll then use to unlock a box.
Whoever unlocks the box first in each matchup wins five points, loser gets nothing.
The checkpoint begins and Mark quickly falls behind as his leg muscles start to cramp.
Nia gets her code next, which means KellyAnne lost another checkpoint.
Finally Brad gets his code and leaves Nehemiah with zero points.
Everyone gets their paddles and walks into the water towards their kayaks … and the episode ends.
We’ll find out how the rest of the final goes next week in part two!
But hey, I could be wrong!
Let’s see if they can keep it up next week!
