'Redneck Island' on CMT episode 'Memory Lane' recap

In tonight's semi-final episode of "Redneck Island," titled, "Memory Lane," retired professional wrestler "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is the host. The rednecks last five are vying for $100,000 and will do whatever they can, to stay in the game.

As tonight's episode opens, the surviving five are back at the camp, and Heather is really mad at the rest who sent her boyfriend, Nick home. At the moment, she is gunning for Donna and Eliza. Now she is going to try to get the two remaining guys on her side.

Mail arrives from Steve. They are costumes. Now they are dressed up as bacon, ice cream cone, a steak, hotdog and a chicken. They each had to cross a greased pole across to a grill. Whatever makes it to the grill, will be the food they get to eat. Nobody can make it across in the allotted time. Finally, Heather dressed as a chicken gets across to the grill. Now the rest tried her method and hot dogs, then bacon and the ice cream make it, but Justin dressed as a steak does not make it.

When they get back, the food is there, but the ice cream is almost melted, and they have to eat it first. Steve comes by a bit later with the beer to make it complete. Steve asks what they would do with the money if they won. Each has a valid reason for needing the $100,000. Steve bids them a good night and will see them at the reckoning tomorrow.

Get in gear and meet them at the reckoning is the mail message from Steve. When they arrive, there is a 4x4 waiting for them that they must remember each sign in the same order. The course is messy and dirty and Wade goes first and needs two tries to complete the board.

Donna goes next and also needs two tries.

Eliza is next and has five wrong, back to the course for the third time, but she never gets the 4x4 out of first gear.

Heather is next and flies through the course, but needs another try.

Last is Justin, who kicks butt and goes through with none wrong and wins the immunity.

Now the strategizing starts, but it looks like Heather will go home. Wade wants to break up the team of Donna and Eliza and keep Heather, but Justin is perplexed.

The voting begins, and the two women vote for Heather, will the men follow suit? Steve starts to count the votes, and they go; Heather, Heather, Eliza, Eliza and the last one for Eliza; now she goes home, and not Heather. Currently there are three friends and one outcast left on "Redneck Island."
