With $250,000 close at hand and a shocking victory in a karaoke challenge, a conflicted contestant must choose between strategy and loyalty… and possibly betray a best friend. This week offers two challenges. The first is a "sudden death" dangling competition in which competitors depend on their partners' knowledge of Bachelor Pad trivia to keep them from plummeting down into a pool. The second challenge is a karaoke competition, played out in front of a crowd of 500 at a legendary Hollywood concert venue - with a very special surprise guest. The couple who receives roses at the end can decide who to take with them to the finals, but trust vanishes when the couple can't agree on whether to go with loyalty or strategy.
