*Previously on The Challenge XXX: After losing the Fill 'er up Challenge, Averey and Camila were forced to compete in the JOI Climax. Both women's videos were highly commended by the voting panel, which included Jenna and Cara Maria, but Camila's video had one more vote, sending Averey home. Now just three women remain, and another unexpected visit from T.J. could change the game.*
*****
It's morning. When Jenna and Camila are awake, production instructs both of them to have their stuff packed and ready to leave in two hours.
Jenna: "So we have no idea what happened with Cara Maria, and we have a Challenge today. I don't know if she's still part of the game or what?"
Jenna and Camila are shown packing their stuff. They each nervously walk to the van. It's not like any other Challenge day because there's the obvious sense of unknown...
**
Cara Maria woke up, and it takes a few seconds to remember where she is. She's in a familiar place. She has been on this bed, she just hasn't slept in it. She's in the building where several Climaxes and Challenges have been held this season. Production instructed her to sleep here for the previous night.
In addition to the different surroundings, Cara Maria also didn't sleep great, filled with the anxiety of wondering why she has been separated from the house. She wakes up in the bed she shared with Brittany in the 69 Mintues of 69 Challenge, thankful that the sheets have been changed since then.
Cara Maria finds a note left for her from production notifying her that breakfast is being prepared for her in another room. She gets dressed, heads down the hall to a different room- the first one she's been in in this building that doesn't also contain a bed. As she is eating, she is greeted at last, by T.J. Lavin.
"Morning Cara." The host says.
Cara Maria looks up and awaits whatever news he brings.
"I'm sure you're wondering why you're here." He continues.
"Jenna and Camila will be here soon too. But... You're not going to be competing here today." He says as he sits across from her.
...
"But..." T.J. starts, and pauses. As he pauses, Cara Maria squints, and has a million thoughts rushing through her head. She wonders what she did wrong. She wonders if she's being eliminated, will she get to keep what's in her bank like everyone else?
"You will still be participating." He says. "That's because today isn't a daily Challenge. It's a Climax. A Climax you won't be competing in, because, since you have the most money of the three participants in your bank account, you have a bye into the Finals."
Cara Maria slams her fist down on the table, not in anger, in a mix of celebration and relief. She almost cries because she thought she was about to go home. Then she laughs. She twitches her head back laughing at the twist T.J. has laid out. She shakes her head at the host.
"T.J... God damn it." The redhead smiles and shakes her head. Then she remembers T.J. said she was still participating.
"One hundered, sixty-seven thousand, two hundered fifty dollars." T.J. recites. "That's how much you've banked so far, and will make more in the Final."
"However." He pauses, Cara Maria still trying to process everything, and now there will be more. "You will be deciding who will join you there..."
T.J. stands up again, he pulls something out of his pocket, and places it on the table. Cara Maria, whose mouth opened up when T.J. said that last part, picks it up and sees it's a blindfold.
"When Camila and Jenna get here, you are going to go back to the room you were in, and production is going to make sure you're blindfold is secure. Camila and Jenna are going to be competing in a very simple Climax. They will each get one turn, with as much time as they need, to make you cum one time. You must wear your blindfold the entire time." T.J. explains.
"You must take off all of your clothes before the Climax begins. You must keep the touching of both women to the most absolute minimum- only touching their head, everywhere else is off-limits so you have no way of knowing who is on the bed with you. One reason we put you up here last night was so some distance can grow between you and them, adding to the mystery." He continues.
"After both women have had their turn with you, you will decide which orgasm you liked more, and that woman will win the Climax, and join you in the Finals. Congrats again." He finishes and leaves Cara Maria to finish eating and prepare.
"Thanks Teej." Cara Maria says as she mentally prepares for what's about to happen.
Cara Maria is led back to the room the Climax will take place in. First she collects her thoughts and pumps her fist in celebration. She's in the Finals. All the sex she's had on camera is going to pay off, in a big way.
Production and the camera crew await the other two contestants, as Cara Maria puts on her blindfold, she tests it out- pitch blackness. No outlines of other bodies, nothing. She takes off her clothes and lies on the bed. She waits...
It's a bit of a weird feeling, as even though seven sexual Challenges have taken place that Cara Maria competed in on camera, it felt a bit awkward that they were there when they didn't have a Challenge to film yet.
Cara Maria: "This game can be cruel, no matter the theme. For all the elimination rounds I've won, I've sent so many girls and guys home. But, being a part of an elimination round in this way, to have to choose one to stay and one to go, and not know who I'm choosing. It's tough having that much power."

Camila and Jenna arrive at the building, where T.J. is awaiting them.
T.J.: "Welcome ladies."
T.J.: "First off, let me inform you on what exactly I'm welcoming you to..."
T.J.: "As you know, during this season, there have been weeks where there was a Challenge followed by a Climax, and a Challenge where the elimination was attached. This week however, there is no Challenge, only a Climax. Which will start right now."
T.J.: "Cara Maria has already advanced to the Final, because she had the biggest bank account through the first seven weeks. The downside, is that she has to make the extremely difficult decision of who will join her in the Final Challenge."
T.J.: "Each of you will have one turn, with as much time as you need, to give Cara Maria one orgasm. The catch is, she will be blindfolded. She won't know exactly which one of you is on the bed with her, and you two will only be permitted to use your own bodies. No toys will be handed to you for this Climax. Whichever orgasm Cara Maria felt she enjoyed more, she will decide that person will move on, and, will bank an additional $20,000 before the Final challenge."
Camila: "I'm not surprised Cara Maria already advanced. I'm nervous because I haven't been paired with her this whole season and Jenna and her won the Challenge last week. I don't know what my strategy is, but, I don't always have a strategy anyway and I've gotten this far."
Jenna: "Camila and I have gotten to be even better friends this season, but we knew we would have to go against each other at some point this season anyway. I wish it was in the Finals though. It sucks one of us is gonna be eliminated right before the end, but I want to win. I've been in the final the first three seasons I've been on and want to get a new streak going."
Cara Maria: "I hear T.J. giving Camila and Jenna the instructions, and I'm excited. I'm safe from elimination, and I don't have to do anything. I can't wait to get this Climax started. I'm not gonna try to figure out who is who. I'm just gonna pretend it's a stranger and try to make the decision that's as true to both their efforts, and how my body receives and reacts them."
T.J.: "Jenna, since your bank account this season is higher than Camila's, you will call the coin toss."
Jenna: "Heads."
T.J. flips the coin and looks down. "It's tails. Camila, do you want to go first or second?"
