Who Went Home in the Surprise 'House of Villains' Double Elimination Tonight?
We're closing in on the end of House of Villains Season 2, and the reality TV powers that be are fittingly upping the stakes. In the final moments of last week's episode, host Joel McHale shockingly announced that not one, but two villains would be eliminated in the most recent Banishment Ceremony. We already had to say goodbye to Victoria Larson, but which of her lovably wicked housemates would be joining her and chair-flipped into oblivion?
And with house numbers quickly dwindling, the fight for Supervillain of the Week in Episode 9 was more charged than ever, in a catapulting Battle Royale that tossed a bomb — pun intended! — into the power dynamics of the house. ("You have more power than anyone in this game has had yet!" McHale announced to this week's victor.)
A coveted Supervillain of the Week win gets said competitor one step closer to winning the whole villainous kit and caboodle. If you need a refresher, House of Villains has brought together 10 of television’s most infamous villains to face off against one another for the chance to earn a hefty $200,000 cash prize and the coveted title of "America's Ultimate Supervillain."

So who was let go as part of that shocking double elimination, and who is our new Supervillain of the Week? Here's everything that happened on Episode 9 of House of Villains Season 2.
Who was eliminated in Episode 9 of House of Villains Season 2?

Teresa Giudice
We picked up exactly where we left off last episode: with the villains having to rank themselves from Most Villainous to Least. After Jessie Godderz controversially wiggled himself between Tiffany "New York" Pollard and Kandy Muse over on the Most Villainous end, The Real Housewives of New Jersey icon Teresa Giudice was left as the Least Villainous of the bunch. The cast's initial theories — that whoever was dubbed the Least Villainous would actually become Supervillain of the Week — were brutally rebuffed by Joel, who announced that Giudice was being sent home as part of a shocking double banishment. We know that Teresa is used to flipping tables, but what about flipping chairs?!

Jessie Godderz
And it looks like Jessie's ruthlessness during the Most Villainous ranking wasn't a one-off. The Big Brother alum was laser-focused on securing himself Supervillain of the Week status in Episode 9. "It's crucial that I win this challenge, due to the fact that just moments before, everybody was completely fine with me going home," Godderz proclaimed. And his victory in the Battle Royale came at a critical time in the overall game, with McHale dropping yet another bomb on the remaining villains — from here on out, "there is no Redemption Challenge, there is no more reward and no more immunity going forward...the only way to guarantee safety is to win." Consider the stakes heightened!
Who was named to the Hit List on Week 5 of House of Villains Season 2?
As part of Joel's announcement that there would be no more Redemption Challenges moving forward was the news that Supervillain of the Week Jessie Godderz would only be nominating two villains to this week's Hit List. They are:

Tiffany "New York" Pollard
The first villain that Jessie nominated to the Hit List this week was New York, which wasn't surprising, given how much pushback she gave him during the villainous ranking earlier in the ep. Plus, she hadn't been nominated to the Hit List yet this season. But the Flavor of Love alum had little love for Jessie's reasoning, telling Joel: "I need wine and a straitjacket, to keep me off Jessie's ass! What am I doing over here, Jessie?!"

Kandy Muse
Before announcing his second pick for the Hit List, Godderz warned that he was about to flex his "villainous muscles." And flex he did, putting up his friend and frequent ally Kandy Muse for potential banishment. Kandy's reaction to the news was just as furiously fiery as Tiffany's. "You're not a f***ing friend...you're a fake-ass bitch. You're not a man, you can't stand ten toes down on your decision," Kandy raged. Those are fighting words!
