"I want your pieces, Aaron!"
Ashley Gudzak

Waterlogged” is the seventh episode of Endurance.

Overview[]

Weather becomes a critical factor in the competition; the Yellow Team vies with the Blue Team for most powerful as each team applies pressure to the other.

Summary[]

On a cold and drizzly day, the teams competed in their third Endurance Mission for a chance to win Purple's piece, Strength, and the right to give away the increasingly important Samadhi.

"Waterlogged," the Endurance Mission, was different than previous missions as it allowed each team to go directly against each other. Each guy was attached to a rope that ran through a pulley mounted on a huge truss 15 feet off the ground. On the other end of each rope was a large bucket that was suspended in the air. The girls ran down to the ocean 60 feet away to retrieve water to pour into any team's bucket they wanted. As the buckets were filled up they became heavier, making it harder for the guys to stay on their platform. The last guy still standing on his platform was the winner.

After a long and intense game nearly exhausting the girls as they ran up the beach, the Yellow team came away with their second victory and won another Pyramid Piece. The piece was Strength, and with the victory the Yellow team took the lead with four Pyramid Pieces: Perseverance, Heart, Trust, and Strength. Blue team is in second place with three pieces, and Red, Green and Orange are tied for third with one piece each.

While discussing the Samadhi, Ashley wants Yellow to give it to Blue, because she wants them gone due to their strength and comparatively large number of pieces. However, Sabrina doesn't want to, because she would be risking going to Temple. She then plans on giving the Samadhi to Red, much to Jon's shock.

At the Rock, the Yellow team gave the Samadhi to the Orange team. Inside the Samadhi was a pair of scissors and a note: one foot of Orange's rope will be cut prior to the next Temple Mission.
