As the episode progresses, Faysal and Chris must select opponents for “The Arena,” an elimination round known as an elimination. Surprisingly, Faysal and Chris choose Faysal and Cassidy instead of themselves as nominees; this shocking decision sends shockwaves through the house forcing contestants to choose whether or not to betray their alliances and allies in order to survive.
Josh had earlier made a promise to his late grandfather that he wouldn’t vote for Bananas, placing himself in an ethical quandary: either honor his word or go against a strong alliance. While either choice might have dire repercussions, Josh eventually votes against Bananas which leaves a bad taste with their veteran champion.
Tori finds herself facing an agonizing decision. After making a deal with Faysal and Cory to shield them from elimination nominations, Tori must now choose whether she goes back on her word or nominates someone else for elimination nomination. With numbers diminishing quickly, contestants find themselves caught between loyalty and strategy in an uncertain situation.
Now that the nominations are set in motion for “The Arena”, TJ reveals the results of his secret vote quickly – creating tension throughout the house as Chanelle wins with most votes, earning her a place in the elimination round; Bananas receives five votes.

As competitors gear up for elimination rounds in this Hall Brawl, it becomes apparent that it features an interesting twist. Players are equipped with shields to use during initial impacts – providing an added element of strategy – and at the end of the hall awaits a puzzle which they must solve before racing to a black square and guessing its answer; there’s no room for error here!
