Who was sent home in episode 4, “Liberty and Justice for All?”
Hell hath no fury like aBig Brotherplayer scorned!
Let’s recap all the blindsiding, backstabbing, and betraying, shall we?

Another week, another group of random pairings revealed by “The Algorithm.”
You know, the usual!
Watching these two cheers with cups of instant ramen is hilarious.

I love how devious this duo is!
He can’t even fathom his “best friend” Alyssa coming for him.
This is setting us up nicely for a major betrayal.

At this point, I’ll be shocked if Xavier and Shan make it past this episode.
The editing is not subtle, to say the least.
Plus it’s combined with heights, so it’s going to be extra entertaining.

If a team answers a question wrong, they get immediately dropped into a free fall for 150 ft. That’s just … a phrase I’ve never heard before in my entire life.
The first round is Danny/Kyra, Domenick/Angela, Cinco/Shannon, and Xavier and Shan.
Listen, it wouldn’t be an episode ofThe Challenge: USAwithout us hearing about Kiki!
The drop is fast and brutal, and only TJ is laughing.
“Now it’s real!”
Everyone tries to make him realize a fishisan animal, but he can’t be convinced.
Round two is Leo/Desi, Kyland/Alyssa, Derek/Sarah, and Tyson/Cayla.
Unfortunately Derek and Sarah have never seen a Batman movie, so they’re dropped first.
But first up is the losers round!
Danny/Kyra, Derek/Sarah, and David/Justine are battling it out to see who goes straight into elimination.
Now it’s time to find out who the winners are.
I think I can see where this whole season is heading …
The first question is naming U.S. federal holidays, and Azah guesses Easter.
She’s wrong, and she and Ben drop.
She’s in for a rude awakening.
They all laugh about it, but Alyssa’s serious about wanting to take that shot against Xavier.
And it’s hilarious watching David do absolutely nothing during this entire meeting.
Is he good for anything?
It’s working out even better than he could have ever hoped!
This is all so diabolical and brilliant!
You really can’t trustBig Brotherpeople, huh?
Elimination
Walking into The Arena, Derek sees a puzzle set up and immediately panics.
Shan sees right through that and knows she’s a scapegoat, so she’s pissed.
Xavier is also heated by the betrayal, but Alyssa and Kyland feel absolutely no remorse.
They both are getting their revenge on Xavier and it feels good in the moment.
Hopefully it doesn’t end up biting them in the butt later though.
Elimination challenge:Smash In Puzzle Out.
Teams must crawl through steel tunnels that are segmented by panes of glass.
The first team to solve the puzzle once all pieces are collected wins.
But there’s a twist!
And he does exactly what he says he practically explodes through all the glass in each tunnel.
“It doesn’t make any sense to me,” she says.
He says that’s why Tyson and all the otherSurvivorplayers are going to dominate and destroyBig Brotherthis season.
We’ll just have to wait and see if his prediction comes true!
That’s the kind of gameplay we love to see onThe Challenge!
The Challenge: USAairs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on CBS.
