The Challenge: Battle of the Exes-Tainted Love

I didn't expect to want to do another write up, but I thought it was worth it.  I loved the concept of fighting for balls on a slip-n-slide.  I think it was a good way to weed out to the power couples.  Unfortunately, Johnny and Camila still became the power couple.  It was an eventful episode with a drunken fight between CT and Diem along with Ty and Paula hooking up, much to Emily's astonishment.

The pairings and my analysis follows:
  • CT & Diem: Diem is so likable. CT is the charming bad boy, how is their relationship not working? I really felt badly for both of them, there's obviously a lot of hurt between them, even though it was over half a decade ago those feelings cannot be ignored.
  • Dunbar & Paula: They are headed to the dome this doesn't surprise me.  Johnny really took care of Paula this time around.
  • Johnny & Camila: I don't feel bad that people are gunning for them. They are an annoying couple.  Johnny thinks he's Jesus, and Camila is just following along.
  • Mark & Robin: Mark Long is so old, but I love it.  I believe I may have been in grade school when he was originally on Road Rules.  And now I've made him feel old, as well as myself.
  • Rachel & Aneesa: I agree they may have the most balls out of any couple.  Sad to see them go, but they definitely gave some teams a fun for their money.
  • Ty & Emily: I find Emily so boring.  I absolutely have no interest in her, and Ty is so annoying.  He's annoyed me so much on other challenges.  I cannot find him redeeming on this one, maybe the next one.
Paula and Ty are talking about having kids??? I do not think that's a good idea.  So my final three predictions are Johnny and Camila, CT and Diem, and Mark and Robin.
