House of Villains Season 2, Episode 4 Recap: Zapped out of the Game

3 weeks ago 13

The competition is heating up on Season 2 of House of Villains. After Larsa came crashing into the game as a surprise contestant last week, the game has officially begun. Let’s just consider those first two episodes a test run, shall we? This week, the competition got real as they cut the lineup of villains from ten to nine. Here’s what went down on House of Villains Season 2, Episode 4, “High-Voltage Villains.”

What happened in House of Villains Season 2, Episode 4?

After getting put on the Hit List, Jessie, Safaree, and Richard competed in an electrifying Redemption Challenge to try to keep themselves in the game. Meanwhile, the rest of the villains tried to sort out their shaky alliances. It turns out it’s not so easy to make friends with a bunch of other reality TV villains, and by the end of Episode 4, they voted to send another player packing. He got flipped through the Stronghold walls, never to be seen again. Let’s get into the dirty details.

Camilla did damage control

Last week, Camilla took a huge shot by nominating Wes, Safaree, and Richard for the Hit List. Not only had she already formed an alliance with Wes, but Richard was practically begging her to nominate New York. Camilla threw them both under the bus by taking her own route.

Unfortunately for her, Victoria found the super-secret Knock Blocker and used that to save Wes from the Hit List. That meant Camilla did all of that strategizing and posturing for nothing. This week, she had to try to make things right with Wes.

When the two of them sat down to talk about her betrayal, she had a hard time justifying it. They didn’t have these types of conversations on Bad Girls Club, so we got a bunch of word salad. She admitted to him, “I may have made a wrong move,” before claiming she had just put him up as a decoy.

Although Wes told Camilla that he would be willing to move on from it, he said in a confessional that he’d be seeking vengeance as soon as he could. Watch your back, Camilla!

Victoria vs. the World

Once again, Victoria found herself fighting with the other villains. Per usual, it had nothing to do with the game and everything to do with her behavior.

It all started when Kandy overheard her saying how she would use the $200,000 prize money if she won. She admitted that she would use it to pay off some parking tickets and various other expenses that are pretty ordinary.

When Kandy went and told the rest of the house what Victoria said, that triggered something in The Bachelor alum. She felt like the villains were judging her, and then she got upset again over a seat. It’s a good thing they didn’t eliminate this girl in Episode 2 because she brings the drama.

At one point, in between fighting with other villains, she lamented to Larsa about her financial issues. She floated the idea of restarting her OnlyFans account, and Larsa being the sweet soul that she is, offered to help. That’s an offer Victoria should definitely take because we know the Real Housewives of Miami star rakes in the big bucks with her feet pics.

A shocking Redemption Challenge

After Kandy and Victoria got done bickering over where they’d sit in the SUV, the villains arrived at their Redemption Challenge, where Season 1 villain Bobby Lytes introduced an insane maze that seemed straight out of Fear Factor. The game was called Body Snatchers.

There were three blow-up dolls at the center of the maze representing each of the at-risk villains. One at a time, they had to navigate their way through the maze with blindfolds on to reduce their blow-up doll. The fastest person to get through the maze would get removed from the Hit List.

It sounded easy before Bobby shared the news that the walls of the maze were electrified, and the villains would have to choose another player to guide them through it. Lord help these people.

Richard chose Kandy, Safaree picked Wes, and then for some reason, Jessie chose Larsa. If you’ve seen Larsa’s behavior on RHOM, you would definitely question that decision. However, she managed to help Jessie navigate the maze with the quickest time, and he won safety from elimination! Miracles do happen.

Mr. Pecs reawakened his inner gamer

Unless you’re a Big Brother fan, it’s easy to forget that Jessie comes from a competitive reality show. So far, his main focus has just been showing off his pecs. We’re not complaining, but after Victoria put him on the Hit List, he realized that he needed to get into gamer mode. He won safety this week, but what about next week? He decided to start making moves to keep a firm position in the game.

First, he went to Richard to try to get an idea of where his head was. Then, he snuck over to Kandy to have an interesting conversation. He admitted that he felt like he needed to weaken Wes’ chokehold on the competition, and said that he’d be willing to turn against the alliance and vote with the women in the house. That conversation made it sound like Safaree had just scored two votes for banishment.

Meanwhile, Safaree was trying to make the best of his time in the house, just in case the vote didn’t go in his favor. The camera cut to him and Larsa in the kitchen, where he tried to get a little flirtatious with the mother of three. It’s no wonder she got over her ex-boyfriend while filming this show.

Who was the second villain banished on House of Villains Season 2?

Although it seemed like the villains were swaying towards eliminating Safaree, Joel announced at the end of Episode 4 that Richard had been voted out of the competition. Unfortunately for the Survivor OG, the vote was unanimous.

In a flashback, we saw each of the villains make their decisions. Kandy said she decided to vote out Richard because she knew there weren’t enough votes to save him. She thought going with the flow of the house would help keep her safe for another week.

Before Camilla pressed the big red button to send Richard out of the competition, he gave a few colorful words to his fellow villains.

“You nasty bastards and bitches,” Richard shouted before getting flipped through the walls of the Stronghold.

Sorry Richard, you can’t win them all! Meanwhile, Camilla sat there in her thigh-high black boots feeling on top of the world. She just took down a Survivor champion, but can she keep the winning streak going?

New episodes of House of Villains air on E! at 10/9c on Thursday nights.
