- [Unknown Narrator] Previously on SOTY Showdown,
Steve removed himself from the block
when he won the last chance challenge.
Forced to put a new nominee on the block,
Derek chose Taylor.
Taylor and Payton pleaded their case,
but ultimately, with a split vote,
Derek made the final decision to send Taylor packing.
Who will become the new SOTY Boss
and guarantee themselves a spot in the final three?
Welcome back to the SOTY Showdown.
(upbeat rock music plays)
- All right SOTY house guests,
who's ready to play Laser Maze?
Since Derek was the last SOTY Boss,
he will not be competing in this competition.
Each SOTY member has to make their way through
the laser maze.
The objective is to find all four digits
to the combination for the secret room.
Whoever can make it into the secret room
in the least amount of time, wins.
By random draw, the order will be:
Me, Payton, and then Steve.
Oh yeah, and if you touch a laser,
you have to go back to the start.
Good luck house guests.
(suspenseful music plays)
(clock ticking)
So my plan is, I'm going to start on this side of the room
and then move all the way along to the secret room,
because I feel like that's probably the order
the code is going to be in.
I already don't like this.
- All right, here I go.
Whoa. Green, yellow, red, blue.
Okay, whatever. Here goes.
I got this. Don't touch the lasers.
Okay.
- All right. Okay.
Blue, red, yellow, green. Blue, red, yellow, green.
We've got blue, red, green.
I don't see yellow.
Okay, I'm going for red first.
I've got to stay low, I think.
This is going to be tough.
Oh my gosh.
I'm going to squeeze through here.
Okay!
(laser sounding)
Ugh!
All right. I've got to win this so I can get rid of Derek.
(tense music plays)
- Okay. All right, we're good. We're good. We're good.
So, I'm going to step over this one
and then I'm going to.
- Oh no! I'm so scared.
Okay, I don't know what to do.
I can't. Can I just, okay, I cannot take that risk.
Oh, this is scary. Oh, um.
I don't want to touch the lasers, so I'm going down.
What?
- [Unknown Narrator] Four.
- Four. Yes!
(sighing)
(laser sounds)
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it.
Slow and,
(laser sounding)
Oh no.
Fast and steady.
- This is it. Very easy.
(laser sounding)
Shoot!
Oh shoot, oh.
Whoa.
Whoa, it's scary.
Guys, I was so nervous during the challenge.
- All right, I'm going again. Here I go.
Take a different route this time.
This is just so weird.
I don't think my body is supposed to move like this.
- Here goes. I'm almost there.
- [Unknown Narrator] Two.
- Two, two. Four and two.
- I haven't even stopped touching this mat yet.
All right. I'm good. I'm good.
All right, not the best start here I've ever had
but there's still a lot of time.
I think I can still pull this off.
Not today laser.
(laser sounds)
Aw!
- Oh my gosh.
Oh, there's one above me.
I made it! Okay!
- [Unknown Narrator] Four.
- Okay, here we go.
Four. Four, four, four, four, four.
- I'm so scared. Okay.
(laser sounds)
Aw no!
- I'm hoping being small is going to help me,
but I keep getting buzzed.
(sighs)
- This is the furthest I've been.
I've got to,
(laser sounds)
(crying)
- There's lasers everywhere.
I don't know if I can win this.
- [Unknown Narrator] Two.
(grunting)
- Okay, we're good for now.
- I got pretty creative there.
I was climbing over their couch, going under things,
just to avoid all lasers as at all costs.
- Don't hurt me!
Yes!
- [Unknown Narrator] Six.
- Six.
- I think I chose the hard way.
I know. Low, I'm too fat.
If I go high, I'm too, not nimble.
(laughing)
That's a close one.
(grunting)
Yes!
Okay, okay. Now I've got real momentum.
Okay. I've just got to touch the red mat.
Ready?
I can't reach it. Shoot.
- [Unknown Narrator] Two.
- All right. Two. Two.
Okay. I'm going to skip the blue mat.
I'm going for the other two.
I can guess the last number or first number.
What number is that going to be?
I'll figure it out. Two. Two.
- [Unknown Narrator] Six.
- Four, two, six. Okay.
Wait, where's the other pad?
Oh my gosh.
This is super risky.
Is there a laser underneath me. No?
No? I'm good?
Where's that yellow one?
It's got to be over here somewhere.
There it is! Got it!
I don't like this.
I really don't like this.
Don't touch anything, please.
- I just need one more number.
It's just right there, I can do this.
I've got to hurry up fast though.
Okay, hopefully I don't touch anything.
I can barely see it. Okay.
Oh no. Going for the easier way. In here.
Okay, so touch it right? Don't touch.
Yes!
- [Unknown Narrator] One.
- One!
I don't know how to go back.
Okay, down here and then through here.
No, just move, don't touch that.
I'm scared, I can't go through this.
- I've got to choose the right path.
That one looks like it's got way more stuff.
I'm going this way.
Oh, I tore my sock.
(laser sounds)
I think I should just give up at this point. I don't know.
- All right. I can do this, then I'm there.
Okay. Okay, okay.
- [Unknown Narrator] One.
- I don't want to go back now, I'm so close.
(laser sounds)
No!
- The easiest pattern to go is there.
(laser sounds)
No! No!
- You're right there, green.
Finally, finally, finally.
- [Unknown Narrator] Six
- Six.
Two. Six.
Okay, I'm pretty much wide open from here.
Maybe it's not wide open from here.
Ah ha!
- I'm not touching it this time. I'm not, I'm not.
This is the last time.
Yes!
What were the numbers again?
There's a one.
One.
Four, there's a four.
One, four.
Was there a nine?
Nine?
No! There's. Two?
(buzzer sounding)
It wasn't one, four, seven, two.
- Oh my gosh. Okay. A lot of lasers.
But I think I can get through here
and reach out with my foot.
I'm right there.
Am I even close to it?
(sighs)
- [Unknown Narrator] One.
(heavy breathing)
One.
- All right, I skipped the blue one,
so I don't know one of the numbers.
I have three of the four, but I know the colors.
I'm pretty sure blue is supposed to be the first number.
That's my biggest problem. Then it's two, one, six.
(buzzer sounds)
- Okay, okay. Four, two, six.
Okay, okay, okay.
(buzzer sounds)
- Shoot.
- Blue was four. Red was one.
There's two, no.
Red was two. Green was,
It was six!
So, four. No, wait. Four, two,
one, six?
Let me think.
Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! I did it!
(shushing)
I know I didn't finish it fast enough.
(buzzer sounds)
- Maybe I just chose the wrong button.
Four, two, six, one.
(buzzer sounds)
(yelling)
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What was that? What was the mats at the beginning?
It was blue on top left.
Red, top right.
Bottom left, bottom left was yellow.
Bottom left was yellow. Then green.
So it's four, two, one, six. Four, two, one, six!
Oh, I'm in! I'm in! I'm in!
Unfortunately I did buzz a few times,
but I think my time is pretty good.
There's no way that Steve and Payton
could get through faster than me.
SOTY boss, coming up!
(laughing)
(laser sounding)
- So I finished. Finally.
And I know my score is probably outrageous.
It wasn't pretty
- All right guys, are you ready to hear the results?
- Let's do it.
- Guys, I finished with a time of 12 minutes and 17 seconds.
- Not bad.
- Payton's time was 10 minutes and 12 seconds.
- Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
- Which means that Payton is currently in first place
and I'm eliminated.
And Steve finished with a time of
24 minutes and 18 seconds.
(cheering)
- Yes, yes! That was my first time winning
Head of the Household.
(laughing)
Yes!
What, what? I'm the SOTY boss?
- What? Payton won?
