Last we were in Cancun, a gulf separating two strong alliances was starting to form in the house: Brad, Cohutta, Darrell, Derrick and MJ on one side; Nehemiah, Latterian, Steve, Teck and Melinda on the other. It wasn't apparent when the hilarity that always ensues went down in the annual hybrid of game show & diving fest known as trivia took over, but when Steve and -- of all people -- Casey were the last ones standing they chose to take the season's biggest power move on behalf of the King's Palace. It led to Brad and Derrick getting a rematch to their epic encounter of many years ago and saw the Cutthoat champ take the win, Katie joining him on the flight home after quitting that trivia earlier.
One of the biggest alumni to make their return to this game after not being on All-Stars 1 this winter is Tina, who first made waves as a replacement roadie on Road Rules South Pacific eighteen years ago. She has made plenty of those during this first half of this season, and as we return to Mexico she may figure once again in a week where the daily sees the Stars will be jumping for joy on trampolines. We will also be delving more into an item we shared with you earlier this year involving one of the Stars on here, as the Palace tries to hang onto their power... and a rather familiar moment to reality TV fans makes its way down south to this paradise.
After the break, DCBLOG wraps up this Saturday night with the 'Pulse of Week 5 of The Challenge All-Stars... and could this show be bringing one of its names to the world of food? Find out next.

@meinke_drop: Hometown OS = Bricked Computer. Lost phone. New computer in transit... hopefully, I haven't missed anything.... luckily I can catch up with a free month of @paramountplus #TheChallengeAllStars2 #montereybay
@meinke_drop: I can't tell if @KendalSheppard is in the process of doing something or reacting to something. #TheChallengeAllStars2 she may have binged too much free @paramountplus
@meinke_drop: Actually, it was probably me... @JodieSweetin doesn't suspect a thing...yet. And probably will be confused why I tagged her. How rude. #TheChallengeAllStars2 #ParamountPlus #oldmancantsearchtwitterright
@meinke_drop: I'm 1st. B4 starting, I'm asked my trivia strengths. Answer "Everything in the known universe except theatre, fishing, Russian Lit, & The Challenge". 1st Q of course is a Challenge question, luckily 3 of the 7 seasons I binge #johnnybananas wins. #TheChallengeAllStars2
@meinke_drop: And of course, while the phone was lost, & the computer bricked. @case_coop managed to get married, get preggo AND win her first challenge. An amazing and impressive week indeed.
► AS THEY SAW IT: "Old Tina Can't Come to the Phone"

@UpInThisMug: Love everything about #TheChallengeAllStars! I loved @TinaBarta’s announcement in the kitchen. She keeps it real and that’s why we love her. And even more I loved @ItsJazzyRey easing the tension in the room by quoting Roger Murtaugh #TheChallenge #TheChallengeAllStars2
@d_e_r_e_kc: Didn't Nehemiah do this to me and or Ryan?
- @GamerVev: @d_e_r_e_kc Exactly! People also forget that a lot of the earlier seasons of the shows when eliminations were introduced, there were solo elims w male vs female.
- @d_e_r_e_kc: @GamerVev Haha we giggled with this with @meinke_drop & Queens @TrishelleC & @KatieCooley26 both beat MEN in elims, so it’s very possible Face with hand over mouth
@case_coop: To sum up my thoughts on season 2 so far: The $#!* They Should Have Shown would be Fire Fire Fire. #TheChallengeAllStars2
@ItsJazzyRey: That look yo momma would give you when yo ass was acting out in public. That “Wait till we get home look!!” #TheChallengeAllStars #IlearnedFromRhonda

@CarleyJohnson: My heart hits for Melinda this episode. Such a strong woman I couldn’t imagine that pain.
@CarleyJohnson: Good game by Jasmine. Props to her for finishing the daily!
@MelindastolpMTV: "@DosHig: @MelindastolpMTV much love to you. let's keep normalizing the conversation around pregnancy and loss." RT 100%!! I was surprised that it is this common so I agree with you wholeheartedly
@JustJem24 - on Tina: 1. I love this psychotic bitch sooooo much…. 2. This is what authentic drama looks like & the cast members on the main show could never. 3. This might be an unpopular opinion but I find Jodi very….boring.

@johnnybananas: On this episode I welcome @BradFiorenza and his epic beard to the show to break down the drama on this season of All Stars, reminisce on the good old days, and answer the age old question "Does Tina have the ability to not be annoying?" @ringer https://open.spotify.com/episode/7kEMvggLNK1q3PccDPi5Ka?si=40f9904cbaf54847
@joshywaah07: You know who’s not acting thirsty because they naturally bring it? The OGs. The second hand embarrassment I feel because of some of the newer generation.
@TheAllanAguirre: We need to have an honest conversation about how these New Age Pans don't make as much as noise. Yeah it was loud, but banging two pans together a decade ago sounded way louder. Also, Chicken Fries used to be bigger, I'm not crazy about that, right? #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: Queen Casey, CutThroat Casey?Anything but Lil Casey! Find out how I managed to piss off @case_coop & how she managed to cut 1 of the monsters heads off! NEW POD! @SHOTOFYAGER referees! UP NOW for patrons http://Patreon.com/ChallengeMania UP MONDAY for everyone #TheChallengeAllStars2
@CoreyLay: Finally catching up on #TheChallengeAllStars2. I'm jealous of this Britney song trivia. NO ONE would beat me EVER. I'd start listing off Japanese bonus tracks and unreleased demos.
@mtvrrdarrell: Congrats @TeckHolmes The coolest cat in the house!! Never complained or cried, just went in and got the job done! @paramountplus @ChallengeMTV #TheChallengeAllStars2
@ItsJazzyRey: @MelindastolpMTV You are the most amazing & strongest person, woman and mom I know. Thank you for sharing your story with all of us! Remember what I told you in Cancun , about a white butterfly. Your baby girl is always with you!!
@latwall: Here we go! @MTVAllStars
@KatieCooley26: My husband keeps saying “what he can do”. He’s a Marine. Let me suck with this dude behind me. If I could choose my partner, my husband 100%. Only way I’d come back. #TheChallengeAllStars2 #whatsupwoodford @FollowCooltucky
@WestonBergmann: [bangs pots and pans like Josh Martinez] Announcement! In this exclusive video I gave a hat trick to someone for all three awards: line of episode, lewk of episode, and MVP of episode! First time for that. Who was it? http://patreon.com/westonbergmann
@KendalSheppard: I admire @MelindastolpMTV for allowing herself to be vulnerable and share her story. It's a story that affects so many individuals and is not talked about enough. Thank you, Melinda. You are so so loved. ❤ #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: This comp looks sooooo cool!! #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: From (anti) hero to zero! I heard that! #TheChallengeAllStars2
@KendalSheppard: I'm shocked they didn't show how badass Jodi was!! A thunderstorm literally rolled in and Jodi kicked it into high gear. I believe she beat most if not ALL the guys!!#TheChallengeAllStars2
@case_coop: I DON’T REGRET QUITTING FOR A SECOND. Fuck your airplane. #TheChallengeAllStars2

@ChallengeFanOG: It doesn’t get any better than @mtvrrdarrell #TheChallengeAllStars #TheChallengeAllStars2 @ChallengeMTV @WeWantOGs
@KatieCooley26: There were so many delays in production, I was actually still there when @MelindastolpMTV was super sad that day. She is the MOST fun & a light of positivity- so to see her hurt was awful.
@mtvrrdarrell: Teck brought the dawg out!! @TeckHolmes @ChallengeMTV @paramountplus #ChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: Smelled that shit from the beginning @latwall! #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: Can’t believe they all burned me for Steve?!! Especially after this!! #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: Oh ok! They’re gonna let Teck and Steve hit each other, bump n run, but not me and Brad! Ok… #TheChallengeAllStars2
@DerrickMTV: Cinematography on #TheChallengeAllStars2 is DOPE!
@ChallengeFanOG: Nehemiah: I told Ryan he’s the last name I’d say but week 1 I hand picked him & @d_e_r_e_kc anyway because I felt I could win. I’m also big mad that @DerrickMTV gave me my 2nd choice when he could’ve given me neither. Also Nehemiah: Steve wants the guy he thinks he can beat?
@CaraNinjaMarie: When TJ says @KendalSheppard & @mtvrrdarrell I’m like…

Well, we've had some big moments on this spin-off, but perhaps we haven't seen anything strange than seeing Tina take a page out of Josh's Big Brother playbook then decide to not even compete in the Lair. She does indeed go out on top of her game.
Our Challenge coverage will continue during the week ahead with a Teej-bomb going off on this show and $1 million getting handed out in Croatia... but don't go -- we have plenty to bring you on the blog and on YouTube. We're taking a detour to Northern Georgia for the Season 4 finale of Floribama Shore just to come, among other things that include an appreciation for the very best in the field of getting to bring the Vegas experience to all of you before I bring you back to Sin City for the debut of #DCVegas XI on YouTube. Until then, enjoy your Saturday once again.
