Last night, on The Challenge: Cutthroat, a drunk Paula expressed her attraction to Emily which resulted in a hot tube makeout session. Now... you may remember that Laurel was in her fair share of drama during Fresh Meat 2 because she and Kenny were such a powerhouse team that other girls were jealous of her. Without a powerhouse partner, she has to resort to other ways of getting attention so Laurel gets trashed every episode and verbally attacks people who have nothing against her.

 

This week's target: Big Easy. She called him fat, ugly, and said that nobody in the house wants to touch him. My heart breaks watching his reaction to her words. It's completely out of line and she is totally classless.

 

In this week's challenge, teams must jump onto a platform suspended high above the water. Everyone must fit on the platform which gets smaller as they progress. The red team lost a lot of members into the water and Chet DQ'd. When it's time for the gray team, Shauvon freaks over memories of a previous challenge where she hit the water hard and felt that she popped an implant (which she didn't). In fact, she freaks out so much that she gets her entire team DQ'd and they're understandably pissed.

 

When it was time for the blue team to go, Easy stepped it up big time helping his team across the platforms. Unfortunately, the team as a whole didn't move quickly enough and the red team takes this one!

 

Back at the house, the teams head to deliberate and fight it out to stay in the game. Vinny (gray) and Katie and Easy (blue)are clearly being targeted and they're pissed. When the votes come in, Eric, Katie, Vinny, and Shauvon are sent into the Gulag to battle it out and stay in the game.

 

It's clear that tensions are running high with food fights between Johnny, Paula, and Shauvon and an all out throwdown among the members of the blue team. When she bullies Emily and Ty steps in threatening to hit her, Katie loses her mind and needs to be forcefully held back by Brandon.

 

Due to bad weather, the Gulag is rescheduled and the cast is allowed a rare night out on the town to party it up in Prague. It was all fun and games until Johnny got into it with one of the locals and threw him down a flight of stairs in the bar. After a trip to the hospital, Johnny returns and is back to his good ol' obnoxious self!

 

At the Gulag, the challenge is "Die Hard" and the players have to stand on a giant dice and roll it towards a square in the middle. That dice has to land on a specific number that TJ rolls and the players are not allowed to touch the ground.

 

Eric proves that he's a force to be reckoned with and to never underestimate him. Vinny's headed home. Shauvon decides to wimp out and quit so Katie doesn't get the chance to prove herself. Whatever, she's still in the game and I love her so I'm not complaining!

 

 

The Challenge: Cutthroat airs Wednesdays at 10/9c on MTV.
