Deal or No Deal Island Season 2 Reveals the Top 5 – with a Huge Twist on the Way
The Banker isn't letting any of these Season 2 frontrunners get too comfortable.
This story contains spoilers for Deal or No Deal Island Season 2, Episode 9, "Million Dollar Walk."
Season 2 of Deal or No Deal Island is approaching its gripping conclusion, with five players surviving to see another day on Banker's Island.
"The Family" alliance continues to dominate the game by crushing the Excursions, and the March 4 episode was no exception. The "Father" of The Family, covert Survivor: Australia champ David Genat, naturally aced the challenge of trudging through quicksand and gained control over who would face the Banker. Meanwhile, The Family's "Mother," Survivor and Traitors icon Parvati Shallow, secured safety for the ninth time in a row, thereby preventing anyone from taking out the reigning Queen and King of Banker's Island.

After Dickson's elimination, the stakes are higher than ever as the Final 5 set their sights on that coveted final game against the Banker. That collective pot is climbing, and viewers are sat to see who will claims it all.
Who is in the Final Five on Deal or No Deal Island Season 2?
Parvati Shallow, David Genat, Alexis Lete, Courtney Kim (C.K.), and Phillip Solomon are the final five players remaining on Banker's Island. It's truly anyone's game, and each of the five players has earned their spot thanks to weeks of grueling competition and life-saving luck.
The Survivor stars may regularly dominate the high-stakes island gameplay, but David and Parvati still have three formidable foes to take down. C.K. arrived at Banker's Island ready to strategize her way to the top. As a professional poker player, she's been great at knowing when to cut her losses — and her alliances. Conversely, Phillip has thrived as the cross-dome pal of Season 2, forming deep bonds with virtually everyone and failing to land on anyone's elimination list. Lete has emerged as the physical titan of the season, controlling the tides of Temple several times throughout the season.
So, who will head home next week? Thanks to the Season 2 Banker's thrilling twist, we'll be saying farewell to not one but two DONDI frontrunners.
Host Joe Mangelliano revealed DONDI's first-ever double-elimination is coming
The Season 2 players were happy to return to camp after Lete's high-stakes game against the Banker. But as host Joe Manganiello told the players good night, the Banker's phone began ringing.
"She's calling?!" Lete exclaimed.
"I guess the Banker has something to say," Manganiello explained while picking up the phone. After hearing the Banker's last-minute message, a devilish grin spread across his face. "Well, that is a twist."
The players grew frenzied with anticipation as Manganiello hung up the phone with a smirk. "Tomorrow's Excursion will lead to a double elimination at Temple," he finally revealed. "Only three will move on to the Final. It will be the first double elimination in the island's history. Two of you will be gone after tomorrow night."
The Temple exploded with shock as the players realized they were facing double trouble the next day. The Banker is sowing chaos, and it's up to Season 2's finest top five to make it one day longer on Deal or No Deal Island. Alliances, strategy, and whipsmart gameplay during Excursions can help, but one wrong move could send anyone packing.
