Well let me say that I was shocked at the end of this episode. I'm not sure but I think Chris & Cindy and Andree and Tonya may have pulled one of the top 5 blunders in reality TV history.

The episode opens with most of the remaining couples arguing over little things about the competition. Also Coyt & Susan even admit that it's highly likely that if they don't become one of the power couples this week, they are gone. It's disclosed that the physical challenge is going to occur up high and Tonya has a fear of heights.
That challenge is called Leap of Faith. The couples are on the top of a parking garage 12 stories above the Strip. For the main part of the competition, the male will be attached to a crane that will swing him around. The female will be in a harness attached to a bungee. The male as he swings by must toss a large ring to his mate. She then puts it on a post. Unless they get 5 in 1 minute, the platform the woman is standing on will fall out below her and she will plummet several stories. Tonya basically chickens out, so she and Andree finish last. Robert and Grace only get 3 so she is the only female who falls. Ethan and Carolyn get the minimum 5, but both Chris & Cindy and the supercouple Coyt and Susan each get 6, so there is a tiebreaker. In the tiebreaker, the couples switch places, but the male will fall no matter what. Coyt and Susan go first and only get 2 so Chris and Cindy only need 3 to win, which they get with very little time to spare.
After the challenge, Susan and Coyt don't believe that Chris and Cindy will vote them off, but they know they still need to try to win the relationship game. Of course, the ones in real trouble are Tonya and Andree. Andree is furious.
The couples visit the Green Valley Ranch spa for a day of relaxation and pampering. It ends when the host shows up for the relationship game called, "Speak now". They asked each person 3 questions and the other member of the couple has to guess who or what the person answered. The person with the most matches is power couple number 2. After the 6 questions, there is a 4 way tie, only power couple number 1 (Chris & Cindy) are eliminated. They then go into sudden death where they alternate questions. After the first sudden death question Robert & Grace and (WOW) Coyt and Susan are eliminated. Ethan and Carolyn miss the next one, so Tonya and Andree are the winners. Coyt and Susan basically are preparing to pack. Carolyn basically says no matter what alliances there are, the 2 power couples should realize that if they want a strong chance at winning they need to oust Coyt and Susan.
They show very little of the deliberations, but with only 3 couples other than the 2 power couples remaining, that's understandable. Then it's time for the altar elimination. The first couple called is Ethan and Carolyn. As they go to commercial, you can see a smile on Robert's face and the tension on Coyt and Susan is enough to cut with a knife. When they come back, the host announces that..... Coyt and Susan are the 2nd couple invited back. I think about 85% of the viewing audience must have done the same thing I did, gasp in disbelief. I feel sorry for Robert and Grace, but they weren't a strong competitive team, which is why the 2 power couples should have kept them. I'm sure for at least one of the 2 power couples tonight, that decision will come back to bite them.
