The Alliance

Should the current situation continue, Cynthia is expected to be the last to go into the knockouts. Afterwards, there's often a debriefing, with Cynthia being particularly critical; she now seems to be aware of her position. Her departure wouldn't have a major impact on the whole thing. Everyone has a good time, but for the Giertjes, there's still the issue with Cynthia, and Casper's ignoring behavior. This challenge revolves around wall sits and endurance. The goal is to see who can hold a wall sit the longest. Teams like the Sharks, Foxes, Vultures, and Snakes compete, and the knockouts are determined according to the same principle. And then there was delicious food and a Carnival-themed costume party. It's Valentine's Day in this episode. And Salar gets to make a video call and hears from his friends what Mercedes' father said, which is incredibly shocking.

His friends' comments about what Mercedes' father said hit him hard. He confronts Mercedes about it, but she can't remember exactly what was said. Outside the warehouse, a father like that has little chance of building anything. And it all happens on Valentine's Day, which doesn't exactly improve the atmosphere. What a disgusting bunch of people, and then they throw someone under the bus who had nothing to do with it. But the cause lies with Cynthia, who in this case is Mate Hari. Something Casper said is being taken out on Marlijn by that filthy Cynthia. Casper, what a scumbag, he just keeps quiet. There's no slippering now, because tomorrow is the knockout match. The knockout match, Snakes vs. Vultures, kicks off. And then Vultures vs. Foxes. And this loss also means the end of Marlijn's stay in the warehouse.

Noah's fanatical behavior might just end up being the Foxes' undoing. Someone else is going to have to offer apologies. Robert comes up with a fun activity: guessing words. Roxy wears the same clothes remarkably often: a leopard print and pajama bottoms. Ricky and Nyssa are growing fonder of each other, but Casper is annoyed by it. The challenge is a duel between Sharks and Snakes in the history category for 200 points. The Sharks are coming out of the negative and are now in third place. Chess really needs to see someone, but we have yet to wait and see if that will happen. Salar and Noah are real jerks; one is allowed to do everything, the other nothing at all. Eventually, she is allowed to make a call after all. Roxy really needs to learn to think before she says something stupid again, and that has happened so many times already. How much longer does Robert have the patience for this?

Well, since Roxy started eating healthier at the Allies, she’s gained weight too. Whaaaaaa, you only eat fatty food; healthy food do you actually know how to spell that? Teamwork and insight are important: how many spiders do you count in the video? The person who does this best gets to decide who doesn't participate in the next assignment. That’s the Snakes, so that’s immediately -50 points. The assignment: tape one member of your alliance to the wall like Spiderman, and make sure that person stays hanging above the red line for 10 minutes. If you do it right, you win 250 points. Anouk hears via video call from her boyfriend who, what, and where, and what she needs to watch out for regarding what she says to whom specifically Kristie and Noah. Frank isn't letting Roxy push him around.

Roxy had another lesson from Robert; curious if it helped. A heated argument broke out between Chess and Kristien versus Salar, because the Foxes didn't want to pay for extra time for the music. Kristie isn't quite right in the head and told Anouk: “shut your big mouth.” Noah speaks with two mouths and is absolutely untrustworthy. There are now three fake figures inside: Kristie, Noah, and Kristie again. Kristie keeps gossiping and stirring things up, and told Ricky that Casper and Bianca were screwing in the sauna, which is totally untrue. Meanwhile, things were very cozy at Roland and Bonnie's; they had a great evening and night. The earning challenge revolves around ball feel and control. Today, ping-pong balls are being bounced: from 1 to 8 bounces on the table. It is quite difficult. Finally, the Foxes seem to be reaching -50, while the Vultures are winning. Kristie's lie just keeps simmering, and this will never be resolved.
