Kody and Brianna faced intense stress as buckets of water were poured over their heads while they endured verbal questioning. Meanwhile, Gia, Andrew, and Shawn were repeatedly submerged underwater as part of a mock torture scenario.
While Shawn maintained her composure, the directing staff criticized her husband Andrew’s performance, labeling it as “abysmal.”
As Foxy pointed out, “If a recruit can’t grasp the situation they’re in and adapt to it, they’re not going to do well in this phase. They’re going to fail it.”
This marked the end of Andrew’s journey in the competition.
Rodolfo “Rudy” Reyes told the retired NFL star, “11, you did not apply the tactics and the training that was explained to you for this portion of the course. For that reason, you have failed the course. Give me your armband.”
However, Rudy commended the athlete by adding, “You did really good to get this far. It’s f–king hard isn’t it? Keep your head up.”
In a confessional, Andrew reflected on his experiences, saying, “What a ride it was. Learned a lot. I’m bummed that I didn’t pass selection but I didn’t fully understand the situation. I did not voluntarily withdraw myself, so I can rest easy knowing I gave it all I had. No doubt Shawn will make it ’til the end.”
