This is turning out to be quite a shame. Six contestants so far, and all of them got less far than they did previously.

Since they have the option to air these five episodes in pretty much any order, you'd think they'd frontload the week with someone who did decently. Since they didn't do that, I have a feeling that perhaps nobody did.
