DC SocialPulse - The Challenge: Free Agents - "Strike A Pose TheresSomething To It"

@DC408dxtr / @DC408dxnow

Welcome again to our continuing coverage of The Challenge: Free Agents and to DC SocialPulse powered by DCNOW for episode 8. Last week in South America, we had the most delicious challenge ever with competitors being wrapped in Suran Wrap and going through a lot of food on their way to a bun, fitting enough to begin the summer. And we also had the defining moment of this season so far: an elimination showdown between a 4-time champion and a brash rookie. And the ladder pulled off a gutsy risk/reward gamble only to be smothered in the battle by the veteran.
   This week in episode 8, we see a rather interesting mission among the remaining competitors as they all get tangled up and try to strike a pose. But the drama this week centers around a steamy late night hookup by one of the challengers, and a romance that she has with another breakout performer this season is suddenly put in doubt when he is voted into elimination. After the episode diary and theWRAP, we'll take a brief look at how the underdogs have done well in recent seasons.
As we begin, please note there is explicit language in many of the tweets below, but I am keeping it uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-)
- If you haven't watched the episode yet, don't proceed with reading this post. But don't worry, DCBLOG will compile all of these tweets after every episode so you won't be in the dark of how your favorites saw this all unfold.

So, join us after the jump for this week in Uruguay.

@laurelstucky: People talk simply just to fill time sometimes.

> And As I Saw It on #DCNOW
@dc408dxnow: We start off with @MTVBananas @RoyLee25mtv & company leading the procession burying @DevynSimone's wig. #RIPTamera #TheChallenge
@dc408dxnow: At the club, we see @NanyMTV & @cohuttaMTV kissing. And she's fearing about her liking him. And then she's w/ @JohnnyReilly_. #FreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: Oh wow. Looks like we have another threesome on this thing, and just with the first one this involves PDX. And vegas flashback. #FreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: Now the day's mission: and it's stretching as part of it. @DevynSimone @JohnnyReilly_ are captains, & this appears to be rather interesting.
@dc408dxnow: And once again @PrestoMagicmtv gets picked last, so does @MtvJess. We saw lightning strike twice, now will it be a hat trick for Preston?
@dc408dxnow: We've got Johnny & Cohutta on the same team, gosh with this threesome, how are they gonna coexist? At least they're doing well here.
@dc408dxnow: The objective here is they're trying to have a couple players hang on & be first w/ all 7 in position. #TeamDevyn in the lead.
@dc408dxnow: And it's @DevynSimone & her team that take the win! And @laurelstucky knows her team didn't do well. #TheChallengeFreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: After all that, Nany talks about how this might affect her relationship w/ Cohutta. And Dev & Laurel talking about who they might vote in.
@dc408dxnow: The voting process comes, and they vote Aneesa for the ladies, & for the guys, it's Preston who also receives unanimous vote. #FreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: Aneesa & Theresa have a talk after, & know they could be going up against one another if the 50/50 chance comes up positive. #FreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: And they earlier had a flashback to RW Vegas2 & what happened last time Nany was in a house threesome. She wouldn't want to look back on it.
@dc408dxnow: And Cohutta & Nany are hanging out by the window prior to the Draw knowing that either one of them could be going home. And then it comes.
@dc408dxnow: And in the Draw, Laurel reveals the kill card for the ladies, while Cohutta does the same for the guys. Preston knows he has a chance now.
@dc408dxnow: And tonight's elimination game is Oppenheimer. And we kick off w/ @PrestoMagicmtv vs. @cohuttaMTV. It can go either way. #FreeAgents
@dc408dxnow: After a sprint in the first one, now it's a battle in the 2nd as @cohuttaMTV won Game 1. And he survives to sweep away Preston 2-0.
@dc408dxnow: He goes home, but after a great run @PrestoMagicmtv definitely proved us wrong & showed he can stay with the big names. Good on 'ya Preston.
@dc408dxnow: Now it comes down to @AneesaMTV vs. @laurelstucky. after Laurel wins H1, she beats Aneesa...just barely. By milliseconds. #freeagents
@dc408dxnow: It's a great feeling for Laurel winning that draw, while it's the opposite for Aneesa. And Nany & Cohutta are relieved & in bed. #freeagents


> TheWRAP
Now to theWRAP, and we begin with the leftovers from last week's barbecue. After meeting its demise in the tomatoes at the Sausage Party, Devyn & the rest of the competitors held a funeral by the pool to say farewell to her wig, Tamera. Bananas (dressed in his halloween bananas costume) and others joined Dev to mourn the loss of her beloved wig, which we also saw during BOTS too. Fans might be wondering why this put in the first few minutes of this, but it's very funny.
   And Devyn was also at the heart of the week's challenge when she headed up one of the two teams, while Johnny led the opposition in Hold That Pose. The objective: have their entire teams suspended for a full 60 seconds while holding onto their ropes. Each member had 4 separate color-coded ropes with their sizes varying by length to make it a difficult task for the teams to put themselves into position. On paper, Johnny's team was tipped as the favorite since their strategy was to place people based on size and strength. But as we always see, winning missions are decided on the field, or the sand for this one, and Team Devyn just held hung onto their ropes, and in the end they pulled off the win.
   Aside from striking a pose and mourning a friend, much of this episode surrounded one of the few remaining couples left in the house. Now that Jordan has left Laurel behind after last week's elimination loss, the title of house couple has now been passed to Nany & Cohutta. After a night out, we see her sleep with Johnny on the couch, and she's afraid of telling Cohutta about that because she fears that she will make him mad. After avoiding talking to him all day, along with both fellas being on the same team in the mission and with a flashback to what happened in Vegas to boot, Nany first talks to Preston on the patio about why she's feeling mad about possibly betraying him. Ultimately, she fesses up to Cohutta about what happened with her & Johnny, and he's understanding of her. Cohutta wants Nany to open up more, allow more people into her life and able to handle these rough situations.
   Unfortunately, Cohutta is up for elimination and the possibility of a loved one potentially going home and heartbreak for the other is very much real. It's something Devyn knows very well after what happened with Big Easy on BOTS, but this week she didn't have to worry about it as her team won and they have the voting dibs. For the first time this season, a team vote is a unanimous one, and the guys send in Preston because they feel he's clearly the weakest player left, even with what we've seen from him. And for the girls, they give acclimation to Aneesa so they won't have to worry about getting Laurel mad for voting her in yet again.
   And when they do go into The Draw, Aneesa gets her wish of having Laurel flip over the kill card, which she does and sets up a strong battle between them. For the guys, Cohutta gets sent into the arena, leaving of course Nany with a lot to worry about. This week sees the Oppenheimer game for the 2nd time this year, and Preston is excited about going in circles because he's taller than Cohutta and has a good chance. Not to be, though...in the end it's Cohutta who's faster and easily wins both of his races to claim his first elimination win this season. Then it's ladies last as Laurel and Aneesa face off. They bang into one another but Laurel beat Aneesa, just by a narrow margin, in the first heat. Then this Phelps-like thing happened in the 2nd round, and we have the same thing happen too. Aneesa has been the elimination queen over the years, but this week isn't her time even though she put up a strong effort and the tears get the best of her. Laurel prevails once again.


> Winners of the Night
- Cohutta: At several times this season in this section of theWRAP, we've talked about the great comeback campaign Cohutta is enjoying this season. For someone who's not been on this show since Ruins, it's clear that he has definitely made his mark as if he never left. We've seen him excel in many of the missions, as well as entertain us with his commentary. This week, he was at the heart of this episode with the continuing saga of him & Nany. But on the field, he performed best when it mattered most when he went into his first Draw. Despite not being as tall & strong as the rest of the guys' field, him winning this week's elimination in comfortable fashion adds more cred to what his bio suggested before all this that he could outrun the alpha males, and he's already outlasted four previous guys finalists. This has my colleague Andrew Kirk tipping Cohutta as this season's most underrated player and that the other competitors should keep their eye out. He might as well play his way into the final.
- Nany: As for Cohutta's soulmate, being one of the first from Team MTV, along with Laurel, to follow me here socially, and having enjoyed watching her since Las Vegas, I've been able to follow Nany on all four of her shows. Given that flashback to what she went through when we saw her for the first time in the Hard Rock, Nany has definitely come into her own on these Challenges, and is a lady who's becoming one of my favorites, as well as a good competitor. Her being part of the winning team this week, along with the drama she had with the cowboy & Johnny, easily makes her one of the winners of the night. Nany knows how to get far into the game only to come away empty-handed towards the end of all this. But with the girls field now down to only six and some top contenders already fallen, I'm now convinced that she could possibly make her way to her first final.
- Preston: Though he lost, Preston walks away as not someone who goes home this week (or at least, stays in South America for that matter), but someone who's proud to have proved the doubters wrong and gaining a ton of respect. We always love to cheer for the underdog, and Preston gave us reason to believe in those everydayers who aren't as athletic or as strong as everyone else. What's made this run so impressive is that, in addition to not worrying about Knight, he's done this without Jemmye on his side representing Team NOLA. Being the one who was the most unlikely of clutch performers when he stole the show in the soccer challenge, he is certainly not the Preston that we first saw in Turkey. And if there's one person who epitomizes the unpredictability of what this Free Agents format is all about, Preston is that poster boy. Don't be surprised if he becomes a regular.
Devyn: It's very clear fans do miss Kenny & Evan on these Challenges (if you google them you'll know why they've not been on since Rivals). But for someone who's carrying on the role of the show's fellow house comedian, at least for this season, Devyn has certainly filled that role brilliantly in the two challenges she's been on. On both BOTS and here on Free Agents, she's certainly brought comic relief to an otherwise intense atmosphere. And the way this week began with her owing a nod to her fallen wig, Tamera, was one of the most hilarious things I've seen on this franchise, along with her being Miss Free Agents on Best of the Worst. As it was for Preston, she has become a underdog that fans love to root for, and being the leader of the team that won this week's mission makes her one of my winners.

DC's VIEW
Now a little perspective, and a few weeks ago I talked about the unpredictability of this season and how it compares to what we've seen in other sports. This week, we'll talk about the underdogs.
   I have been enjoying this Challenge and it's volatile nature, and there's nothing more I like than when there's people that we don't necessarily think of as a strong force be given an equal playing field to do well and possibly go deep in this individual Free Agents format. Seeing what we've seen from the likes of Preston, Devyn, Latoya, Jessica and Cohutta this season has made this exciting to watch and give them a chance to compete with the likes of Bananas, CT and Laurel who are still favored to win.
   While I'm a relative newcomer to this world having joined with BOTS, I've seen in these four challenges I've watched how underdogs have been able to hang with the big names. Some examples:
- Mike on Rivals, where he came in to replace Adam and joined Leroy, who ironically is his best friend (other than now his fiancΓ©), and though not maybe as strong a competitor as his LeanBody buddy, still made an impact as the bromance went all the way to the final, all without going into elimination.
Cara Maria came in to replace Naomi on Rivals II, and she was given a lukewarm reception by everyone else in week 2. But her experience, coupled with two jungle wins & winning the last mission, ultimately helped her & Cooke go to the final and earn them second.
- Team Brooklyn described themselves as a group of misfits, and had some difficulty early on. But after a couple arena trips, Chet, Sarah, Devyn & JD finally crashed the alliance bash by winning the week 7 & 8 missions and eventually went to the final.
Preston has been through this before, last season as well with Knight. They won a jungle and were lucky enough to outlast strong competitors like Zach/Trey & Leroy/Ty to get to the last guys jungle.
- Though infamous for quitting in an arena Dev was in, Big Easy was strong enough to beat Wes in the very first elimination battle on BOTS, especially with the hastily-put together Fresh Meat team.

Note that I included only these examples as, of course, I only started watching Challenges regularly back w/ BOTS, and only caught little snippets of other seasons. But I'm sure other fans can tell me of other competitors on who were not favored to do well but ultimately prove everyone wrong and exceed their expectations by making a deep run and contend. We see this all the time, especially in March Madness and majors in golf & tennis, of those who aren't as talented or well-known making a great run (sometimes winning the whole thing) and earning newfound fame. It's something I always like as a sports fan who's been brought into Challenge world, and Free Agents is proving that those who aren't as strong & speedy could have the best time of their lives & make those everydayers proud.
   If you've got other tales of the underdogs, leave me a thought or two down in the comment box.

Finally, yesterday in New York, MTV taped the Free Agents Reunion, and that means it'll be time soon enough for DC Fan's View and our latest installment of Reunion Revealed. Shortly before the season finale in a few weeks, I'll be approaching fans in the audience, and if I'm lucky enough they provide the Fan's View of it coming up at the end of the season. So, if you got to spend a Saturday afternoon with some friends to Times Square, be sure to jot down some notes from yesterday; you know I'll be waiting to hear from you and provide you the platform to talk about it on here. And I'll have the contact details coming up on next week's edition of SocialPulse.


As we wrap things up, a few brief webcast reminders...
- And after what happened in the DrawReality Radio (@RealityRadioPod) got the first opportunity to talk to Aneesa after the Elimination Queen lost to Laurel: http://www.spreecast.com/events/the-challenge-talk-w-aneesa-ferreira
- Beforehand, Andrew Kirk (@CSUAKirk) got to talk to Theresa, also about the season thru 7 weeks, including her first-ever elimination win and her history with the lady she beat, Camila: http://www.spreecast.com/events/free-agents-theresa
- This weekBrian Cohen (@BusDriversRoute) will speak to Laurel about all that has happened so far in her first challenge in three years at http://busdriversroute.comBrian also went to the Reunion and look for his insight on it on there then. Also check out his IG @BCohen228 for his pix with the cast.

And if you haven't noticed, just recently I joined with some of the cast from this season and signed onto Beamly. There, you can chat with cast members and other fans about the show, the season and so much more, including during episodes when they air out east. And I plan on going on that site after episodes air in the Pacific time zone on Thursdays to do dedicated mini-chats with west coast fans on the Free Agents page. So, log on to BEAMLY.com and search "DC Cueva."


As for here, make DCBLOG your destination for all things Free Agents; from our SocialPulse diaries to my own stories offering a rather unique perspective on the season and the people, we have it covered here. Today DCBLOG celebrates its 1-year anniversary, and in addition to the year in review I posted earlier today, I plan on tweeting some of my favorite articles from the past year in the coming week. Coming up here, I'll offer my personal memories of some of the cast of this Free Agents season, plus with summer having unofficially started, check out my post on it from yesterday.
   If it's happening now, it happens on DCNOW, my other twitter hub dedicated to live tweeting shows, sports & events, located at @DC408DxNow. Of course, that's where I live tweet Free Agents on Thursday, Catfish on Wednesdays, new episodes of House of Food once they're posted, and starting on Thursday, Game 1 of the NBA Finals and a rematch of last year's epic series when the 2-time defending champion Miami Heat travel to San Antonio to meet the Spurs. Obviously, DCNOW should have its busiest night yet with Free Agents to come on afterwards here, you don't have to zap channels or choose one or the other here.
   Of course, can't forget about my primary account @DC408Dxtr and the usual tweets, chats with fans & followers and Team MTV, and alerts to MTV-related show material & DCBLOG posts; along with my Instagram, also at @DC408dxtr. So now until I talk to you on twitter & back here at the 'Blog, thanks for reading, have fun and have cool. See you later, and Happy Birthday DCBLOG.

- DC
