Snakes and a Plane

Synopsis
As the episode begins, Chef Hatchet is seen serving the campers breakfast in the main lodge until Chris walks in and warns them that they may lose their appetite in today's fear-facing challenge. He goes on to explain that the remaining campers must overcome their biggest fears in order to win invincibility for their team, starting with Bridgette and Cody, who are stranded by themselves in the forest to beat their fear of loneliness. Once they learn that they have been left with no survival equipment, Gwen is seen at the beach, trapped in a glass box underneath the sand in hopes to conquer her fear of being buried alive.

Heather has been chosen to monitor her, but she grows bored and gives the job to Lindsay, who quickly forgets about Gwen and runs off. Meanwhile, Beth, Izzy, and Trent are all forced to take a helicopter ride around the island with Chef Hatchet as part of their fear of flying. However, the plane crashes and Chef Hatchet is over ten minutes late for his appointment at the main lodge: a Japanese buffet tasting with Geoff and Lindsay, whose greatest fear in life is sushi.

After eating three courses and vomiting several times, a bear attacks the two campers. Back at the beach, Trent unburies Gwen after hearing her cries through a walkie-talkie, and learns that she has been trapped underground for forty-five minutes thanks to Heather. Later, Courtney and Heather are forced to sit in the pit Gwen was buried in and face their fear of snakes.

Heather eventually leaves, and though Courtney attempts to pull herself together and overcome her fear, she shrieks when a snake crawls up her sleeve and makes a dash away from the pit, losing the challenge. After, in the female Screaming Gophers cabin, the girls on the team attempt to help Justin beat his fear of negative criticism by calling him ugly. They are thwarted, however, by Chef Hatchet, who scares all the girls but Gwen away while dressed as a spider, as part of Leshawna's challenge to conquer her fear of the eight-legged creatures.

Finally, in the male Killer Bass cabin, the entire team watches Duncan face his fear of tattoos by having a fake one drawn onto his arm. When he finally overcomes his worst nightmare, the Killer Bass win the challenge, and at the bonfire ceremony, Heather and Justin are placed in the bottom two. Although Heather never officially beat her fear, she is handed the final marshmallow of the evening, and as Justin silently walks the Dock of Shame, Chris wraps up the episode.
