The 57-year-old La Trice outlasted all of the other houseguests in the Wall competition to become the new Head of Household.

When the feeds began Angela was already out of the competition sitting beside former HoH Haley. During her first attempt at the wall during her original season Angela only lasted 1 minute and 15 seconds.

The set this year was a ranger station in the middle of the forest complete with someone dressed as Bigfoot. Cold water (rain) routinely sprayed down on the houseguests. The Wall tilted as usual and houseguests were also sprayed with “Bigfoot repellent” and other nasty coloured sludge.

At half-an-hour in, everyone was still in the competition except for Angela.

At 31 minutes in Taylor fell. Barrett was next at 43 minutes in. Devens was down at 46 minutes.

Dee was out at 52 minutes.

“Are you kidding me?” she yelled as he dropped down. All of the Icons were out of the competition.

Melody dropped at 61 minutes and sat away from the other players even though they told her she would get wet where she was.

Mallory slipped at 70 minutes. Chuk fell a minute later leaving Drew, Kamu, La Trice and Yash as the final four on the Wall. Yash fell and tripped as he did at 73 minutes.

At one hour and 20 minutes, Drew slipped off and was hanging back and forth. He tried to swing back to his platform but couldn’t. It was just Kamu and La Trice left.

“How are you feeling, Kamu?” asked La Trice.

“I can go all night,” said a confident Kamu.

“You are going to challenge an old lady like this?” said the 57-year-old La Trice laughing out loud.

It is not quite clear how the competition ended as the feeds cut away but it lasted anywhere from an hour and 20 minutes to an hour and 40.

When they returned everyone was already in the house cleaning up and La Trice was being congratulated on her big win.
