The Challenge: Double Agents — Episode 6 Preview
What To Look For
- No Bad Ideas in a Brain Storm
Okay so hypothetically speaking….Lolo helps Gabby or an Amber get their skull by going against one or the other. She orchestrates enough votes to get this to happen under the cloud of pitting rookies against each other because it’s the “easy vote”. Then the next women’s elimination day, she does the same but for herself. She gets herself called in against, well who cares at this point.
Lolo wins so now the three women with skulls are Aneesa, Gabby/An Amber, and Lolo. Now what does she do? She just goes into every elimination and takes out the remaining women one by one, essentially guaranteeing herself first place.
I can’t imagine deep down Lolo thinks she’s ever losing in a head to head physical competition to any of them, so why not? Just vanquish all opponents. We get bad TV and she gets a fatter wallet. I wonder which of those transactions she cares more about.
- If You Want to Make God Laugh, Tell Them Your Plans
The Challenge Gods are starting to run into a math problem here. With Devin being the Rogue Agents, doesn’t that mean there has to be a men’s elimination this week? He can’t get a partner unless there’s another woman without a male partner. Which can really only happen with a male elimination day. This presents quite the problem as that would leave still only one Gold Skull accounted for on the women’s side of things.
To be honest, trying to figure out the timeline for everything without writing it down is kind of making my head hurt. I’m sure it’ll all work itself out in the end. But we might be in a situation where we’re jam packed with women’s elimination’s at the end with only male Rogue Agents along the way.
- As My Mom Used to Say, “Only Boring People Get Bored”
Devin’s going to get bored.
I highlighted it a bit in my last two articles, but Devin’s got some time off coming up. And when every day’s a Saturday, they start to lose their luster pretty quickly.
So with that in mind, let’s take some bets on which cast member Devin gets bored enough to wind up first. I did my research and conferred with some of the heavy sharps in Vegas to come up with these super duper scientific moneyline odds for this bet. Check FanDuel to place your wagers, special code INFILTRATE.
Josh (-240) — Heavy favorite in Vegas, this one’s so obvious you can’t even get good value on your money. Stay away from this one.
Amber M. (-180) — Just based on passed experiences, another favorite in Vegas. Here’s your pick to click, that’s my guess.
Theresa (+120) — She’s due for some tears. It’s been a long time since we got a classic Theresa melt down.
Nany (+120) — Normally you’d have to kidnap a bookie’s nephew to get these kinds of odds on a Nany freak-out. But alas, we’re trapped with Mature Nany.
Lolo (+800) — Probably not, but this one would be fun. Devin would get eaten alive in any sort of physicality, but in a verbal altercation if Lolo takes the bait, Devin will most certainly dig his claws in.
CT (+10000) — A real long shot, but I guess who knows. If somebody gives you these kind of odds, it’s almost always worth throwing five dollars down.
