The latest episode (August 5) of the show saw the teams going in for another team challenge. Savage Crew and Dirty Hands had been going neck-to-neck with the others for the last four tasks but out of that, the Savage Crew won only one task. 

The team had been facing difficulties getting on to the same page and after having a discussion, they hoped things would be different for the latest task. For this task, each team was given 24 barrels that had been scattered around. The teams had to collect them and put them in the correct order that was given to them. 

However, the order for which the barrels had to be placed could not be moved and it was important for each team to remember the list. Savage Crew selected Tara Davis and Linnett Key as the leaders while Myles V Polk was chosen as the leader for Dirty Hands. The Savage Crew decided to carry their barrels to the spot while also keeping them in order. Meanwhile, Dirty Hands decided to carry everything to the location and then arrange them. While the Savage Crew seemed to be in lead, things changed when Michelle S. Kiddy decided to push other barrels to the location. 

Speaking to the camera, Michelle explained that she has a hard time remembering the numbers and thought this step would help. However, the rest of the team was not happy with Michelle's move and thought she was not being part of the team and working independently. Despite many requests from the rest of the team, Michelle failed to listen to them. 

Meanwhile, Dirty Hands were facing difficulties of their own. Myles found it hard to get everyone on the same page and felt that the team was not listening to him despite choosing him as the leader. However, they tried to put their differences aside and focused on the task. Once they got all the barrels at the right location, the team gathered around and memorized the order.

At this point, both, Savage Crew and Dirty Hands were tied as they finished arranging at the same time. However, both teams did not get the order right. They decided to give another try and by luck, Dirty Hands got the order right. While Dirty Hands got another win, Savage Crew felt disappointed for gaining another loss. Can they redeem themselves in the next challenge? 

'Tough as Nails' airs on Wednesdays at 8 pm ET on CBS.
