Overview
- The Halloween episode, published Friday, showed Umut Tekin spit twice in Sam Dylan’s face during a heated argument, with footage and multiple reports documenting the on‑camera assault.
- Production intervened on set, separated teams to prevent further escalation, and removed Tekin and his partner Lena Goldstein from the camp for violating the show's conduct rules.
- Sam Dylan announced he filed a criminal complaint after filming and told press that production staff encouraged him to press charges; no prosecutorial outcome has been reported.
- Tekin and Goldstein’s exit allowed previously eliminated contestants Jerry Menges and Chris Kugathasan to rejoin the competition and ultimately win the €40,350 jackpot.
- In post‑incident interviews Tekin accepted responsibility and apologized on camera, while broadcasters framed the ejection as enforcement of a zero‑tolerance rule for physical attacks; legal status remains publicly unconfirmed.
