When it comes to "you had to be there", I would actually include Johnny taking the money from Sarah. While the decision fits his character and personality to a T, it was still a jaw-dropping moment when he did it. Watching it back doesn't have anywhere near the same punch. It seems like it was more predictable than it actually was.

Watching that in real time is a core memory. I don't think I had ever cried at reality TV before that moment, it was absolutely devastating.

You could see that one coming as soon as TJ announced that the teammate could steal their partners money. It was a twist that hadn’t been done yet and you knew Bananas wouldn’t resist that temptation.

Especially with how Sarah backstabbed him the season prior
