ChallengesEdit

Reward Challenge: Wall To Wall
The contestants must race to the top of a three-story climbing wall using four individually-shaped pegs. First, they must make their way through a table maze. Once at the end of the maze, each will release a bag containing their first two pegs and move to a spinning wheel. Reading the clues, each must spin the wheel clockwise, counter-clockwise, and clockwise again like a combination lock to find the one bag that contains their final two pegs. With the help of the pegs, the players must get to the top of the wall and place their pegs in the proper slots, which will raise a flag. The first person to raise their flag wins.
Reward: A protein-enriched meal specifically made to nourish the winner for the Final Immunity Challenge.
Winner: Terry

Immunity Challenge: Balance Of Power
Starting on the largest of a series of floating platforms, every fifteen minutes the Final Three will move to the next smaller platform. As the platforms get smaller, it will get tougher for the Survivors to maintain their balance. Only their feet can touch the platform. If their hands touch the platform or they fall off, they are eliminated. The last person standing wins.
Winner: Danielle

Final WordsEdit

“	The biggest mistake I made was not keeping the game in my own hands and relying on somebody else to take care of it for me. That's what got me. Third place is not bad for a 46-year-old guy. I hope I made my friends and family proud. Terry Deitz is not a perfect guy. There is always room for better change.	”
–Terry Deitz
