THE FARM - S01-E02

The second episode of The Farm began with the conclusion of the season’s first public vote. Five contestants had faced the first Elimination Block, but only three would survive. FIRST DOUBLE ELIMINATION After the public vote was closed, Zedd and Rio (Charlitos) received the lowest final percentages and were officially eliminated from The Farm. ZEDD — ELIMINATED RIO (CHARLITOS) — ELIMINATED Lyanka, Poof and Tatum survived the vote and returned to the game. With two contestants leaving the competition, all three teams were now evenly matched with six members each. 20 became 18. CYCLE 2 CHALLENGE — PUZZLE With the first elimination behind them, it was time for a new challenge. For the Cycle 2 Challenge, the contestants had to complete a puzzle as quickly as possible. Every contestant’s individual time counted toward their team’s final result. The team with the lowest combined time would win immunity and escape the next Elimination Block. After all the results were calculated... TEAM PIG WINS IMMUNITY! Team Pig secured its first immunity of the season, meaning all six of its remaining members were safe from the Cycle 2 Elimination Block. THE SOVEREIGN STRIKES AGAIN The individual competition was extremely close. For the second cycle in a row, Rainolds managed to achieve the best individual performance. This time, however, the victory came by only TWO SECONDS. Rainolds narrowly secured first place and became the Sovereign Rancher of the Cycle for the second consecutive time. BACK-TO-BACK SOVEREIGN RANCHER RAINOLDS For the second cycle in a row, Rainolds earned the power to directly nominate one vulnerable contestant. TEAM COW VOTE With Team Pig immune, Team Cow and Team Horse were forced to vote. Team Cow’s vote resulted in: Tatum — 3 votes Bubba — 2 votes David — 1 vote For the second consecutive cycle... TATUM IS NOMINATED. After surviving the first public vote, Tatum immediately finds herself back in danger. TEAM HORSE VOTE Team Horse’s vote became much more complicated because of penalties earned during the cycle. Guib received: 1 regular vote +4 penalty votes FINAL: 5 VOTES Cyberous received: 2 regular votes +4 penalty votes FINAL: 6 VOTES With six total votes after penalties were applied... CYBEROUS IS NOMINATED. Without the penalties, the result could have been completely different, making the farm duties and punishments directly responsible for changing the course of the game. SOVEREIGN NOMINATION Once again, the final decision belonged to Rainolds. As Sovereign Rancher of the Cycle, Rainolds had the power to directly nominate one contestant from either vulnerable team. His decision was... BUBBA BUBBA IS NOMINATED BY THE SOVEREIGN RANCHER. CYCLE 2 ELIMINATION BLOCK The second Elimination Block of The Farm is officially formed: BUBBA vs. TATUM vs. CYBEROUS Bubba enters the block through Rainolds’ direct nomination. Tatum enters after receiving the most votes from Team Cow. Cyberous enters after receiving the highest total from Team Horse once penalty votes were added. One of them will now depend on the public to continue in The Farm. THREE NOMINEES. ONE PUBLIC VOTE. WHO WILL SURVIVE? Tatum is facing the public vote for the second cycle in a row. Cyberous discovered how costly penalties can become. And Bubba was placed directly in danger by the two-time Sovereign Rancher. Meanwhile, Rainolds continues to dominate the individual challenges, becoming Sovereign Rancher for the second consecutive cycle — this time by a margin of only two seconds. The game is getting harder. The penalties are beginning to matter. And nobody can afford to feel safe. THE FARM — CYCLE 2 BUBBA vs. TATUM vs. CYBEROUS Who should stay? #Thefarm
