Will viewers witness a major Survivor deception?
Last week, Survivor alum Sarah Lacina wanted to plot revenge against fellow cast member Tyson Apostol as the latter had promised her safety but put her up for elimination. Sarah vented her frustration of being betrayed by Tyson to her fellow contestants. She felt that it was unfair on his part to make her feel safe and then blindside her.
Meanwhile, Tyson opened up about the same to his fellow The Challenge: USA cast members and revealed that he wouldn't mind if someone sent him into elimination, but a blindside is part of the game and shouldn't be taken personally. He said:
"I'm not giving anybody here permission to put me into elimination, but if you do feel like its the very best thing for your game, and it happens, you know what? I shake your hand and I say 'great move.' You're gonna take it personal? Then guess what? Maybe you shoud just avoid all games."
Sarah's close ally and friend from Survivor, Ben, was furious at Tyson for sending her into elimination. He felt it was disrespectful of the former Survivor winner to go back on his word and almost put her in danger of going home.
Tyson's former partner on The Challenge: USA, Cashay, tried to make amends with Sarah by confessing that Tyson planned to get close with people and form a strong alliance before evicting them from the competition. This revelation irked Sarah even more, and she decided to plot her revenge by putting him into elimination.
However, it looks like Sarah has something else planned and hasn't decided on getting rid of the Survivor legend yet. Viewers will have to keep watching to determine if her revenge succeeds or gets the best of her game.
The Challenge: USA has been extremely popular amongst viewers. The contestants fighting to win the title have brought their experience from their time on reality shows like The Amazing Race, Survivor, Love Island, and Big Brother. The are formulating strategies to keep themselves safe every week. Viewers will have to keep watching to find out which pair emerges victorious.
