Hurl and Go Seek

'''The final seven contestants are merged in order to eat a disgusting meal where the first finisher gets to hunt the others in a hide-and-seek showdown. One loses control due to another rejecting their feelings, while someone finally reclaims the respect of another by not turning their back on them. One ultimately sends themselves home; depressing another, but two players' discovery leads to an even more shocking conclusion.'''
