Challenge Final: Can Kaycee Convince Fessy To Keep Fighting For The Win?

The Double Agents final mission kicking off on the precipice of a wild windstorm was no coincidence. Kaycee — one of the presumed Challenge front-runners — has for now borne the brunt of the storm. And because the last leg of Season 36 commences, the question lingers: Can she survive the hurricane?


Soon after Kyle’s elimination from the game at the hands of Fessy and the cementing of the final four Double Agents teams, the game’s remaining eight players met host TJ Lavin at the base of a Icelandic footrace for the final mission. Raging winds littered the course with in the air sand and brush, and because the players set off onto the opening leg — a three-mile race to an inaugural checkpoint — they struggled to stay upright.


“We have never done a final at the tail end of a hurricane, nevertheless there’s a first for everything,” TJ said.


And that wasn’t the only warning TJ gave. Immediately after informing the game’s players that only first- and second-place finishers would earn money (the winners would split $900,000, while runners-up would split $100,000), he revealed that the opening day’s last-place finishers could be immediately expunged from the game.


For Nany, who struggled to keep a pace, there was tremendous pressure to create Leroy overjoyed. Her partner, who mentioned he was retiring soon after Double Agents, hadn’t won a Challenge in a decade of trying. And once she watched Team CT and Amber reach the opening checkpoint first, Team Fessy and Kaycee reach it second and Team Cory and Kam reach it third, she knew she had to up the ante.


“I know how bad Leroy wants this win…and if I’m the reason he gets eliminated on the initial beginning day, I don’t think I’ll ever forgive myself,” Nany said.


Conversely, Amber, the game’s lone remaining rookie, exceeded expectations. Not only did she win the initial operated by a longshot, yet she also beat the game’s other seven players in the opening checkpoint.


“This is why I came here to this Challenge,” Amber mentioned. “I’m gonna put my body through everything to prepare it.”


However for Amber’s fellow Big Brother alumna Kaycee, the next leg of the game would prove to be a body-breaker. At some point while in a two-mile race along a coastline, Kaycee took a tumble, landed on her back and injured her knee. Historically invincible on The Challenge, her screams and tears were especially shocking, and as she struggled to move, she and Fessy watched their comfortable second-place standing disappear.


“Everything I went through this whole entire game I’m thinking about as I’m laying here with my knee out of my socket,” Kaycee mentioned through tears.


She struggled to get upright and eventually managed to get back on her feet, nevertheless as soon as she arrived with Fessy at the next checkpoint — a feast of fish eyes, sheep face, and more stomach-churning snacks — Kaycee encountered another heartbreak: Her partner’s evident surrender.


Yes, while Kaycee insisted on continuing the race, face soaked with spillover from her specialty blood cocktail, she found that Fessy had basically thrown in the towel. She pleaded with him through cries to keep fighting, although Fessy — who mentioned he saw the writing on the wall — essentially admitted defeat.


“I wonder if Kaycee has any regret now about having Fessy as a partner,” Leroy, a longtime skeptic of Fessy, mentioned. “I could be f*cking pissed.”


It’s only a matter of time before TJ reveals the opening team to be expelled from the Double Agents final mission. Can Kaycee pull out the ultimate underdog story and rise above her injury? Or are her knee and her partner’s apparent forfeiture also much to conquer? Find out what occurs once The Challenge finale continues Wednesday!
