"The 1000 Yard Shot"
The teams were dissolved in this episode. All players received green shirts and began to compete directly against each other for the rest of the season.
After the individual challenge, all players voted on the nomination range. The top two vote-getters then competed in an elimination challenge as in earlier episodes.
