Snake In The Grass is set to return with another exciting episode on Monday, August 22, 2022, at 10.00 pm ET on USA Network.

The players for this week's episode are Sam Ruebush, Elektra Nelson, Xavier Williams, and Wyatt Werneth.

In each episode, four players are put into the Central American jungle for 36 hours, in which they would have to figure out which one of them is "the Snake" – a saboteur secretly sabotaging the entire group. If the players guess correctly, they win the prize money. However, if wrong, the Snake wins the entire amount.

In an exclusive clip shared by the show, episode 4 titled All Boys Are Snakes, contestant Wyatt tries to prove that he isn't a saboteur as the group pulls a large trunk out of a body of water with ropes. However, no matter how much he tries to convince his fellow members, Elektra Nelson doesn't believe him.

In a confessional, Elektra reveals that Wyatt is acting suspiciously:

“So right now, the way Wyatt is barking orders and trying to command the whole situation, being so alpha and so demanding, determined to prove that he is not the snake, is not necessarily sitting well with me."

However, she cannot be trusted, as is the format of the competition, which makes it even more exciting and appealing to its viewers.
