Twenty-two Challenge All Stars return for a second chance at the ultimate competition and a $500,000 grand prize. Right out the gate, the competition gets real with an intense underwater challenge. An honest player struggles with the game's politics.

Things are a little different on the Challenge this time around, 12 brand new, never on TV competitors join the veterans to battle it out for crazy cash in Australia.

Reunited in the house, two best friends clash, reopening decades-old wounds that threaten their relationship. One player's nervous mistake could cost them the game during a high-flying trivia challenge.

The "Bushwacked!" challenge finds the kids from Austin teaming up to fight a targeted elimination and then things get crazy when 2 teams go head to head in "The Exile."

An infamous ice cold throwback challenge leaves some players in a compromising position. Years-old tensions between two all-stars boil over in an explosive argument, while two new allies mix business with pleasure.

The All Stars brace for impact as someone in power threatens to use the Lifesaver. A parent is torn between being away from their family and their shot at becoming a champion. An introverted player delivers a blistering message.
