"You're spreading all these lies"— Amber confronts Frank in The Challenge: All Stars season 5 episode 7
In The Challenge: All Stars season 5 episode 7, as the cast got ready to vote someone into elimination, Amber asked TJ Lavin to let her speak. She told him she figured out who was plotting against her and said it was Frank.
The host asked Frank if Amber was correct and The Challenge: All Stars season 5 star said "No." Amber told the cast member she thought they were on the same team. Frank asked her to "stop" and said her claims were "made up."
"No, it's not. I'm putting this out there because I feel like you're spreading all these lies," Amber retaliated.
Frank noted that The Challenge: All Stars Rivals star didn't want to put his "business out there" and Amber said Mel believed the male cast member was the mole and told her about it. She told Frank she believed he was on her side and said she was "really hurt" by his actions.
"I thought you were on our side too," Frank said.
Amber told him to wait for everyone else to see how it would play out. Her partner, Fessy chimed in on the argument and revealed her "biggest weakness." He said she cared too much and got "super emotional." He added that it typically would end up hurting her.
Amber further told Frank he was the "biggest snake" in The Challenge: All Stars season 5 house.
Fans of the MTV reality show commented on Amber and Frank's argument online and praised the female cast member.
