Original subtitles

Previously on Australian Survivor...

Saanapu cruised

into the merge with a big majority over the old Vavau.

Because you are merging into one tribe.

- Yeh! - You are now Fia-Fia.

Allowing Flick, Brook and El...

to call the shots in the new Fia-Fia tribe.

- Kate.

_

By the time El spun her way to immunity...

- El...wins...immunity. - Yeh!

the winners seemed unstoppable.

- Yeh! - Immunity is yours.

But Sam broke ranks...

siding with Kate in a good guys' alliance.

_

Good guys definitely can flip this game on its head.

And we'll do everything we can to make that happen.

Both wanted to vote Nick out.

- Ah, yeah, - I know that.

At tribal, Nick was under attack.

We all know Nick's a bit of a snake.

There's no doubt about that.

I'm bored of all this chat. I'm over it, mate.

I've heard it before.

But he played his idol.

This is a hidden immunity idol and

any votes cast against Nick will not count.

And the majority got its way, eliminating Kate.

The tribe has spoken.

Eleven are left. Who will be going home tonight?

Tribal Council was exhausting tonight.

There was a lot of argument,

there was a lot of fighting between Nick

and almost everybody.

Guys, give me your poles.

My boys will keep, I guess.

- Well, out. - Forever. - Another one.

Luckily...Kate went home tonight...

but...my alliance was definitely affected.

by Sam running off and-and trying to convert Kylie.

behind our backs.

_

Anyone missing...

_

- Watch for that ember...

_

I don't know.

_

Not fucking fair.

_

_

We had a plan that was to get rid of Kate.

It was very straightforward. But, the alliance

turned on me...

and...I just felt absolutely destroyed by so many people.

Obviously, I'm the big fat elephant in the room. So...

- Yeah, you bet, man .

In regards to the anger...that...

Lee and...Sam and maybe have towards me,

it kinda seems a bit out of the blue.

Like everything was totally fine today and then...

um...all of a sudden, I'm a...a snake.

If I've done something, I'd like the chance to...

discuss it.

_

Since the moment I left tribal,

I have already come up with about

fifteen different ways that I could get revenge.

I'm gonna sleep on it.

And then tomorrow,

I'm gonna figure out what's the best plan for me.

Do I try and salvage this "alliance"...or do I...

bring out the old scorched earth policy...

where...everyone who did me wrong...

chop 'em off at the knees.

Last night...was my worst night out here

and...I feel extremely vulnerable at the moment.

And, I'm disappointed...with Lee and Sam.

They did kinda...

come out their skin at me at Tribal Council.

Get out!

Being called a snake...

Who have I been a snake to in this game?

Doesn't sit well with me.

I don't want those labels being throw out there,

especially when they're invalid.

What time is it?

Chicken comes over to me,

say nine o'clock. It pisses me off.

- At night or in...? - In the mornings.

. - Yeah, that's bad.

_

I'm really annoyed at Sam. I think he was stupid

to go behind our backs and try and get Nick out.

He wanted to blidside Nick...

and blindside everyone in his alliance.

And I think that was a really dumb move to make.

Because, moving forward,

you need to trust in people in your alliance.

And I feel like I can't trust him anymore.

_

_

_

. - Me, too.

_

_

_

Sam was definitely the person

I was closest with in this game...

in terms of ally and friendship and...

the fact that he went behind my back...

I just don't know who I can trust now.

I need to talk to Sam. This can't be happening again.

I have to keep him in play.

Why didn't you just talk to me?

- Alright. - Seriously.

- I...he really does my head in. - Yeah.

- There's no one like... - but...if you told me that

there was someone wanted out that much,

- I wouldn't have tried to push you anymore. - Not anymore but

I'm living paces from something positive,

and I just want it to go NOW.

Cause you state what any of us can do.

- Did they...? - And I didn't mean

to not tell you guys straight up. The only reason I didn't

is because I knew you guys wouldn't have done it.

It bugs me because if you can't trust me,

then I can't trust you.

- Oh, hundred percent. - And I...

And-And this isn't

nothing to do with...rest of the-the alliance

- and-and...everything. Yeah... - Yeah, well, we could have easily let you on.

- We have to be careful. - Yeah, and that's why I

spoke to the right people, I thought I did...

There's-There's a majority of people that

want him out and I thought, "Well, if they all want him out..."

I definitely want him out. Let's just get him out.

Probably would have caused a little bit of discomfort

amongst the group, but...I took the initiative which

I don't make Jennah happy with the decision I made.

It was for the best interest of the group and...

I'm glad I finally stood up and-and did my thing.

And I think it was the best thing to do.

_

_

_

_

I got my nerve.

_

_

_

_

- What about you or me. - Your boy.

This game...it's hard...

Physically, emotionally, mentally and...all those things

wrapped together has been really difficult.

_

Survivor and this game

has cut me to the core on several levels.

At the moment, like I'm feeling pretty...isolated.

Yeah.

_

You all right? How you feeling, like.

Just everything...not going your way.

. - Yeah.

Right? Yeah.

- And I know tribal's just a game I like. - Yeah.

Feel like there were personal attacks in there.

- that were... - It was, yeah.

- That was nasty, I reckon. - That-That wasn't-That wasn't...

- bit nasty, like... - Yeah, was a nasty thing.

- I'm not... - Don't think on it, like...

I think it's just people, going off...believing

- what other people are saying about you. - Yeah.

- Which is not a good way to live your life, I feel... - Right.

at all. They shouldn't be doing that.

They should be going off the hand,

how you been treating them.

- I-I don't even know what happened yesterday. - Yeah.

I don't know, like, where it came from.

I've got, like, a family at home

Like, I don't people thinking that I'm a snake.

- Yeah, I know, that's mean. - I've got students in like

- a school community. - I know.

And like...that's...so far from who I am.

- Yeah, I know that. - And I gave my word to six people.

Yeah.

- It's just not fair. - It's not fair. I think it's stuffed.

People are taking you the wrong way,

- you need to get up and talk, with Sam. - Yeah.

And try and get, like, make amends

- if you make it an actual priority... - Yeah.

Hundred percent your priority. Lee will follow.

- Anything, he'll follow. - Yeah.

- But... - And then fresh beginnings and,

- you know...create new relationships. - What-What'd-What'd you think this, um...

kind of, like, puts me, like, um...

- I'm... - I don't know.

- a hiccup...I reckon I'm... - I have not had a chance to have...

have a chat to anyone about it yet, but...

I hoping not, and us girls like you, Nick, so...

- Uh... - We'll all be

- sticking up for you, Nick... - Yeah, I know. Thank you.

if that's all right. Yeah.

- Thanks, El. - Well, yeah, you...

- You're a legend. - I don't know what you mean.

It's really tough out here because...

nobody believes you when you say things.

And it gets really hard sometimes because...

I feel like I keep making the wrong moves and...

you know, say the wrong thing

to the wrong person and...

I feel like a lot of what I say out here gets

really misconstrued.

And I know at home that doesn't happen.

I'm Nick, I'm the teacher,

I'm the soon-to-be husband, I'm the son, I'm the...

the kid who misses his mom.

And, out here...a lot of people see me as this kind of

scheming person who would do anything ..

and throw anyone under the bus and...

that's not who I am in my real life

and it's not who I am out here as well. I...

I just want my family here for a minute...just for a moment.

I just need something to just pick me up.

And then I'll be quiet.

Come on in, guys.

- Matt. - Yeah, mate.

You're out here a long time, thirty-six days so far.

- What is it that you're missing most? - Look, I-I-I-I think

everyone's pretty aware the I miss most is my family.

I miss my fiancee, miss my mom...

miss my dog. The-The list goes on, mate. So, eh...

It's been tough. You know, thirty-six days is a long time.

It's the longest I've been apart from any of them.

- Nick. - Yes.

It-It is tough out here.

What would make it easier for you

at this stage in the game.

I just...um, I woken up this morning

and I just missed my fiancee so much.

It's just-It's...

I'm sorry.

No, don't apologize.

- I'm so sorry. - Whatever you're going through is real.

It's a long time, that's all.

It's very long. Very tough out here.

Alright, you ready to get to today's

- reward challenge? - Yeah.

- Have some fun, hey? - Okay. This is how it works.

You're gonna be split into two teams of five.

One-by-one, you'll slide into the water...

grab a ring...maneuver it along a rope,

through a series of obstacles and onto the beach.

Once you've collected all five rings,

you'll release it from the rope

then toss them onto pegs.

First team...

to land a ring on each of their pegs...wins reward.

- Wanna know what you're playing for? - Yeah.

The winning team will get...

_

- Worth playing for? - Yeah.

Alright. We'll pick teams and we'll get started.

After picking teams...Kristie...

you'll be sitting this one out.

But.. you will still have a chance

to take part in this reward.

- Okay. - You need to choose...

the tribe...you think will win.

And if they do win...then you also get a letter.

- Okay. - So, who do you think gonna win?

There we go. Go, blue!

Go, Brookie!

- Sorry, love. - Do not be sorry, that was amazing.

Brooke is in for blue now, she's trying to catch up here.

El's duck-diving through this one.

- But Brooke is catching up. - Well done, Brookie.

Digging deep, she wants a letter from home, no doubt.

Making quick work of the second obstacle. Wow.

Well done, Brooke.

El's struggling on the A-frame...starting to look exhausted.

Brooke has made up a lot of time for blue.

You're smashing it, girls.

They are still in this challenge.

Stand up, El, stand up.

El's through the A-frame. Brooke is not far behind El.

Go, Brooke, fast.

El is through. Go, yellow!

Masive effort from Brooke. And she's there. Go, blue!

Come on, Jenn.

She grabs a ring.

Lee is through the canoe.

Doing butterflies through the water.

Good job, Matt.

Atta game, bezinay.

Matt...still exhausted.

Think of your teary letter, come on.

Give it more. Back now.

Try this.

Matt picked up the pace that last stretch. He's almost there.

- They haven't got one yet. - They haven't got one yet.

Finally, he makes it.

Okay, get your rings,

get up here and start tossing them.

- Oh. - You need fire.

Yellow definitely had a lead...

but they still haven't landed one yet.

So close, Lee.

- Oh. - I can't make it.

Guys, this is anyone's game.

We're a team.

- Hey, guys. - Good work, guys. Awesome work.

- Sorry, man. - Sorry.

- Good job. - Enjoy it, Nick, enjoy it.

Good job, Nick.

- I'm Sorry. - Sorry.

Nick.

You brought that home. How does it feel...

you getting that letter?

Oh, man.

I just needed it so bad. I mean, everyone here needs it.

I just feel like, um...I need something,

just to get me through...the next...

however many days I'm lucky enough to be here.

Yeah, that's perfect.

Alright. Nick...Kylie...Sam...

Kristie...El...Lee, congratulations.

Your letters will be waiting for you back at camp.

- Excuse me, Jonathan. - Yeah.

There's obviously...

yeah, there's a lot of people on this side,

obviously want a letter as well as.

Is there any way that we can

come up with some sort of deal?

Well, you can give yours up today

to someone else if that's what you wanna do.

That's what I wanna do.

Because I know what mine would say.

And I know that other people...

really need it and I

know what's in mine, so I wanna give mine to Matt.

Alright, you can swap places with Matt.

_

It's okay.

That's so nice of you.

- Okay. - Okay.

El...you wanted to swap yours?

Yeah, I wanna give mine to Flick.

- No, babe. - I don't want any. I'm fine.

Alright, come on.

- No, babe. No, babe. - I wanted to.

_

It's all good, babe. Love you.

You didn't want me.

- I love you. - I love you

- so much. - It's okay. It's alright.

Alright. Well...Flick...Lee...Matt...Nick...

Sam...Kylie, congratulations.

You've won letters from home. They'll be waiting for you.

I hope you enjoy them. Everyone else...sorry.

No letters. Grab your gear. Head back to camp.

There are moments in this game...

that make you realize that this game is...

a human game.

Some of these people really do care...

and Kristie's a special girl.

The Survivor roller coaster is...

moving at breakneck speed today

because last night...was, by far,

my worst night out here...and I needed something...

that could pick me up...and I got it.

Today the reward challenge was...

exactly what I needed.

Oh, Jeez.

Please, be quiet.

I'm loving the fire.

- Ohhh. - Ohhh.

- Where's the pizza? - Oh, man, I didn't need...

Haven't they heard of pizza?

- These are hurgels...English breakfast. - Oh.

- Ohh. - Ohh.

And can I just add that, like, after last night, like, I'm...

- This is exactly what I wanted and needed. - Yeah.

Yep.

We all sat around, like this little campfire,

with cuppa's of tea.

And shared our stories...

from whoever they may have been from.

- First, Sammy boy. - Eh?

Big dog.

Thirty-six days in...it was...really, it was...

the best moment in the game.

"I want you to feel this-this"

"bit of fun's gonna be...a killer."

- Who's it from? - My mother.

Oh, good.

- How awful. - Read some more, okay?

"This..." Oh, ho-ho-ho. ho-ho.

"How are you going, big fella?"

"Sure, i missing you." Sad face.

"Hope you are doing well over there and having fun."

- That a girl. - She's a cracker.

- Mom's a legend. I call her big girl. - She's different, right here.

"I hope you are eating enough"

"as you don't want your head looking like"

"it's pressed in a vise."

What a ripper.

- Look at that. - Wow.

"You aren't missing much here, Sam."

"Just us, as we all miss you."

- Aww. - Let it go.

"I miss your phone calls, having a chat every second day."

"Can't wait to see you, whenever you're home."

"Love you, big fella. The big girl, mom."

- Wow. - Look at that. Thanks, Sam.

It's been so hard...

being...fully shut off and disconnected from the world.

Not knowing what my family and everyone else

is doing is crushing, you know.

I...I miss my family more than I've ever

missed them in my whole entire life.

- Ohhh. - Wow. Wow.

That's a biggie.

From Hope and Kara.

- Take your time, mate. - Take your time, mate.

This is great.

- This is something you've been waiting for, man. - Yeah.

- "Dear Mr. Magic." - Oh.

"You know me so well...and how much I've struggled to put..."

into words how I'm feeling."

"But there was no way I could pass up writing"

"you a letter."

"So, here I go."

"I, um...I'm missing you like absolute crazy."

"It's been really weird being in the house alone."

"I am..."

"I'm not gonna lie...it's been really hard at times."

"And I'm just so proud of you..."

" and wanna support..."

Ah, shit.

"And I wanna support you in everything you do in life."

My feelings, that means the world to me.

Three days before I...came to this island, into Samoa...

I proposed to her.

I-I-I-I love her more than anything.

And-And-And I'm...

playing survivor for her.

- Oh, wow. - Wow, wow, wow.

Okay, this is from my mom.

"Felicity, we are so excited..."

"for you, that your dream came true."

We have been...in...absolute

isolation, we have had no access to

any of the outside world.

"I miss you so, so, so much..."

"because I miss hugging and kissing you."

I'm entranced.

"I love you, I miss you, I am proud of you, mummy."

Well...

So, to get that one piece of information

from the loved one is so important,

and especially drawing into the

final phases of this competition.

"Views from home...Jake and Sam..."

"Jake can say, 'I missed you'..."

"'so much'. And I ask you..."

"ask you..."

"Sam scored his first..."

Should've give this, I was home.

"Sam scored his first goal in soccer."

That'd be during his thrash play, first season, ten-nil.

When I'm down in the dumps

and I need that one last push...

to open up that letter and read it...again...

just to get me through the next challenge

or the next phase...

is gonna be so important.

So, who's up next? Nickie?

Read away, my friend.

I've already thick, just to see Stan write.

- What? - Wow.

I held that bundle. I just wanted something from

Christine, my fiancee...

and my sisters and their families.

And I got all of those things...

in this one little package.

"Nick."

"Can you believe this?"

"You are reading a letter from a loved one."

"It doesn't happen to us,"

"it happens to people we've been watching"

"on TV for the last thirty-two seasons."

"Dumb...run..."

"Louisia."

- So, this is my sister. - Wow.

"We are all superduper well."

"We had a littlie memorial get-together"

- "for mom's sixtieth." - Wow.

"Dad, Osculina, Uncle Tony and the kids..."

"all let off balloons."

"To witness to you."

"It was a really cute moment"

"that you would have loved."

- Take your time, mate. - Yeah, right.

"I'm dreaming about you all the time."

And-And I never remember my dreams, but lately I have."

"I've been so worried you're surrounded by people"

"who don't get you."

Oh, we get you.

"I can't wait to pick your brain and hold your hand."

- "There's a plate of chicken sweet soup..." - Ohh.

"mashed...and choc chip cookies?

"waiting for you when you get here. And..."

Ready?

"And some original flavored pizza."

"Love you, Nicole."

I have a connection now to the people

who love me the most...and...

I feel like I'm back on top.

And, who knew that a piece of paper

with some ink on it could do that?

- Wow. - Yeah, it did.

We don't need anyone else.

I'll get the fire going.

- Sue's gone to play. - Yeah.

Miniglows from home.

_

I know. Suddenly Kylie's caught up

in everyone's emotion.

- And now I feel like I'm a spinner.. - And now it really played. Yeah.

The six of us who got our letters today...

know how special that was for us.

But we also know how tough...

that is for other people.

- Hello. - Hi.

- Hi, guys. - Hey.

And I'm worried that if we come back, all guns ablazing...

that might hurt them a lot.

So...I-I-I-I wanna take a step back.

And, to...allow them to come to us.

_

- Yeah, it was, eh... - Yeah?

Yeah,

_

_

But, eh, you know

_

_

- You were, like, in all the... - It was just like...I-I-I...

Yeah, I was looking, you know...

_

_

Kristie...gave up something that means so much...

to someone who...she barely knows...

and...I wanna make sure she has the best game

she can have now.

I don't wanna vote for her, ever.

That moment today meant that much to me.

_

_

- My mom, and we were... - Ah, blessed.

- You felt sad?

Yeah, I feel really, like...I feel back to-back to myself.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of things can happen and...

you know, I...just wanna check this

- sunny and just a...you know, whatever and... - Yeah...good.

I'm so...I'm back to feeling like I'm...

- One of these guys... - Please let that be enough of that,

- I know that. - I don't wanna this moment with these letters...

in a...strategic way.

But, I know that that moment there...

will have some bearing on the way

Sam and Lee think...

because...

last night, those people were my enemies...

and now, today...

They are. they were my allies sitting next to me.

Yeah. Oh, yeah,

. I'm for you.

_

- Yeah.

- It was the perfect pick-me-up, mate, wasn't it? - Yeah.

Three pages, the first, mate...

My number one priorty is

to talk to Lee and get to the root of

what made him so angry.

- I genuinely thought that you and I were like... - Yeah.

- getting along super well, like we were really good mates. - And-And we were...and we are.

And I don't know kinda what happened.

Thnk what happened last night was...

I just felt like saying, "Nick...be quiet" ..

because the more you try and

convince people that you're...

not a bad person, all that stuff,

the more that they think you are.

But, at tribal...like, I've gotta say something...

- Best not. I wouldn't know...Yeah. - Like, I wouldn't-I wouldn't be me...

- I wouldn't be true to like who my family know I am... - Exactly.

if I didn't just say,

"Guys, come on. Like...you gotta let me explain."

And that's exactly right. And I'll look back,

and I'll go, "Well, he deserves to have his say."

And then we....I was disappointed with myself.

And so I'm-I'm shitty

and that's why I wanted to apologize/

I know that Lee regrets

part of what happened at Tribal Council.

- So, it's not like that. - And he apologized and said that he was wrong...

to snap at me. So, I feel better now.

After Lee, I wanted to snatch

Sam away for a couple of minutes.

I wanted to make sure that he knew who I was,

why I'm out here...and try to change his perception of me.

I'm not saying...that you'd be a-a snake

or anything outside in the world.

I'm just going based on the situations and

stories that I've heard.

And none-none of them have been against me.

It's just the stories that I hear around,

and everyone...telling entire story,

there has-there has to be...some

common ground given a...

there has to be a reason why...everyone was...saying this.

I-I ad-ad-admittedly...think that

back at Vavau the first twelve days...

there was a toxic kind of situation.

- And...you-you lived here, you didn't like it. - Shit, no.

- You're right, it was pretty jarring. - And, from that

from that twelve days, like a lot of bad blood was bred.

The first twelve days at Vavau is not how I'm

playing anymore.

And I understand there's always two sides of a story.

It's just...it's really hard when I see so much...

- conversation and so much tension - Yes.

and so many people seem upset...

because of this one guy.

So, enough's enough.

I don't want the Vavau crowd to continue lingering

because if you sit down with Brooke and

Flick and-and Matt and that...

people are like "We love you,"

- like "let's keep going forward together." - Yeah.

- I just want you to just kinda... - Yeah.

think about that...that, like, I'm not this evil genius.

I definitely think...

that I was able to regain

some of that lost ground

with the boys. But, I never

feel one hundred percent.

So, I need immunity.

Nick sorta opened up to me about

being in Vavau and the negative energy

that's been thrown over his head

and why it's over his head and...

to me, personally, I've listened to both sides of the story.

Now...I just don't know what to do.

Come on in, guys.

Oh, my God.

- Nick...how was that letter from home? - Ohh!

I've...been lucky enough to enjoy a lot of the rewards...

uh...in this game...and that was,

by far, the best...reward...ever.

It was just a couple of sheets of paper,

but it was better than any chocolate buffet, Samoan feast.

Better than all of them.

And just what I needed, so yeah.

Kylie, I see you nodding your head.

Did...getting that letter remind you why you're here?

Ah, absolutely. It was pretty magic.

It was that little something that just gives you back

the sparkle in your smile and the spring in your step.

Does it motify you to...to win?

Oh. That and more. Absolutely.

- Alright, you ready to get to today's immunity challenge? - Yeah.

First things first. El...

- Give it up, babe. - time ot give it up.

Here you go.

Once again, immunity is back in play.

Today's challenge is very simple.

You will hang on a pole...for as long as you can.

If you drop...you're out of the challenge.

Last person left hanging, wins immunity...

is safe from the vote.

Everyone else, you're in danger of becoming

the fourteenth person voted out from this game.

We'll draw for spots and get started.

Find a good position on that pole

because...this challenge...is on.

The only way to guarantee you are safe

tonight at Tribal Council is to have

this necklace around your neck...

and the only way to get it...is stay on that pole.

Matt having a little readjust. Already starting to feel it.

No way to get comfortable out there.

Strain...showing on Sue's face.

Sam having a lot of trouble,

trying to find grip on that pole.

Sometimes...the simplest challenges...are just the hardest.

Everyone's been up there forty-five minutes.

Sue has her feet on the bottom rung.

Sam really starting to struggle now.

His feet are really, really burning now.

In some challenges, size and strength are an asset.

In this one, it might be a liability.

Matt comes down another rung.

Once that pain sets in...it's hard to push through.

Oh.

And that's it.

- Suey! Well done, Sue. - Good Job.

- Sue...first person to step out. - Good Work, Sue.

Take a spot on the bench.

- Sue, well done. - I'm aging.

That means you have a one-in-ten shot...

getting that necklace.

That's an hour.

Has not gotten easier for Sam.

Bit slippery, mate.

- You slipping? - Yep.

All the pain that he's experiencing...

he comes down one more rung.

And another one.

Is this it for Sammy? That's it. He drops out...

after an hour.

Good luck, guys.

And that's it. Matt is the third person out of this challenge.

Everyone's been up there ninety minutes.

- Oh su..gar. - Nick and Lee giving it a red-hot go.

Nick comes down one more rung.

Little sweat from Lee.

- Nick, how you doing up there? - Ohh.

Not great.

I don't want to give up, but...I just can't.

Wouldn't this look good around your neck, though.

- Ohh. My... - Nick in pain.

That's it. After a huge effort from Nick...

he's out of the challenge. Vulnerable at tribal tonight.

Seven...left.

Lee is the last man standing.

These girls are freaks, mate. Absolute freaks.

- Flick... - Good job, Flick.

is down to the last rung...

nowhere the go from there.

Keep it up, Flick.

- You're great, mate. It's boring. - Come on, Flickie.

Keep those legs up, Flickie.

I can't. My whole body's aching.

And that's it.

Yeah, Flickie.

- Well done...F.l.i.c.k.i.e! - After a big effort...

- Whoo! - Flick...steps down. - Incredile job.

- Well done. - Good God.

My body's gonna hate me tomorrow.

El...now at the lowest rung.

Everyone's gotta be tired and exhausted at the point.

Completely numb.

Need some blood back in my feet.

Lee struggling with cramps now.

Very difficult to get any relief when you're up there.

El...starting to show signs of struggle.

Come on, El, you can do this.

- Naw, I'm done. Done. - Oh, well done, El.

- Well done, El. - Yeah, El. Whoo! Whoo!

El steps out. She's out of the challenge.

Only five people left.

- Ah, the wobbles today. - Big effort from Lee.

That's a lot of weight to hold up there.

Oh, Lee had a big slip.

Good save, though.

Oh, that hurt, hey?

The girls still making it look so easy.

Lee...struggling to get a grip.

- Oops. Oh, my leg. - Lee slips down to the last ring.

Inches away from the ground.

Ohh, this is hurting me, this is hurting me.

Getting hard for him to hold on now.

Stand, buddy.

He's trying to push back up.

- Well done, Lee. - And he does.

- Good work, Lee. - Well done, Lee. - Yeh!

Lee, you are our unit.

Lee, showing...just when you think you're done

there is more in the tank.

This challenge tests every part of your body.

Arms and legs...just burning on that rope.

Oww.

Kristie's struggling now.

How much longer can she hold on for?

You go, Kristie. Oh, look at her go. Back up.

Ohh.

- And just that...Kristie - Well done, Kristie.

drops out. She's out of the challenge.

And that leave us...with four.

Jennah Louise...Brooke...Lee...and Kylie.

Battling it out...for that necklace.

Oh, man. Why am I doing this to me?

Lee is digging deep.

Not giving up.

And he slips. Tryin' to hold on.

- Amazing recovery. - What a recovery.

Lot of pain in the face now.

Tryin' to push through it.

Gripping with his toes now.

Pain must be enormous for Lee at this stage.

Harder to get a footing on those lower rungs.

- And that's it. He slips. - Good work, Lee.

Well done, Lee.

- Three hours...thirty-two minutes for Lee. - Wow!

Well done, Lee.

- Unbelievable effort. - Hang on, girls.

Alright. Gonna make this a little bit more interesting.

I'm gonna get all three to come down the pole...

with your feet on the last rung.

Nice and slowly. Take your time to get down there.

Alright. Everyone's in position.

Challenge is back on.

Bottom rung is definitely harder.

Jennah Louise trying to find a position...

- that gonna work for her. - Whoo!

Bottom rungs have more rope on them.

Less of a lip.

Harder to get your foot...wedged in there.

- Come on, Jenn. - Good work, girls.

All three girls...

showing a lot of concentration in their faces.

First time in the whole challenge...

Kylie's starting to look uncomfortable.

Brooke...finding her own inner strength.

JL...starting to shake a little bit now.

I've been...shaking for a couple of hours.

Jennah Louise really starting to shake now.

Yeah, I'm about to drop.

Tryin' to breath through the pain.

That's it.

- JL finally steps out. - Good work, Jenn.

- Well done... - Out of the challenge.

Brooke and Kylie...

battling it out...

with a chance for that immunity necklace.

Fighting each other,

but, most of all, fighting through that pain.

- Ohhh. - Hold on, girl.

With every passing minute...

that pain just intensifies.

You two have been at this for a long time.

Five and a half hours.

- Ohhh. - Wow...no way.

- Thank God. - That is insane.

Great display of will power, right here.

I am properly impressed.

Everything hurting now. Feet...legs...back...arms.

Neither Brooke nor Kylie willing to give an inch.

One momentary lapse in concentration...

is all it will take to end this challenge.

- Brooke. - Yes.

How much longer do you think you can stay here?

Got any letters in that pocket.

You'd be willing...to step down...

and give up immunity to Kylie...

- for a letter from home? - Yep.

- Oh, my God. - So, you feel...

safe enough to...step down...after all this time?

- Oh, I feel ninety percent safe. - Ninety percent safe?

So, to be clear...

if I offer you that letter from home...

and you give up immunity...to Kylie.

- you understand the consequences of that? - Yep.

Okay.

- Really? - Yep.

- Whoo! - Whoo-whoo!

Okay.

- Wow. - Kylie wins individual immunity.

Wow.

- After almost...six hours. - Thanks a lot. This means the world to me.

Unbelievable.

- Awesome work, girls. - Yeah, wow.

You'e the best.

Brooke. You've given up immunity...for this...

Yeh!

- your letter from home. - Thank you.

Enjoy it. You deserve it.

Kylie. Congratulations. Massive effort.

Whoo-hoo! Yeh, Kylie.

Way to go, Kyls.

You've won immunity. No one can vote for you tonight.

Also, guaranteed a one-in-ten shot

of winning this game and the half-million

dollars that comes along with it.

- Well done, well done. - Thank you very much.

- Yeh, Kylie. - Yeh, Kylie.

You ought be so proud.

Everyone else, I'll see you at tribal tonight

where someone will become the fourteenth person

voted out from Australian Survivor.

Grab your gear. Head back to camp.

I'll see ya later.

- Oh. - Thank you.

If I'm being completely honest,

I don't need immunity tonight.

I'm confident enough

to know that I don't need that necklace,

but...you-you never know.

There's just no question. I needed to win that.

I needed the letters to get me through...

but I needed this to stay in the game.

So, now, I gotta go to work.

Well done, girls.

- Good work, girls. - Amazing effort, ladies.

You are...

- I'm in awe. - Absolute legend.

Top drawer, ladies.

Matty...

- I feel for you. - I managed for a while.

I can't believe how long you did that.

Sorry, guys.

_

- Tough. - Today's challenge was

absolutely exhausting.

It was a battle between ego and...you know, stubornness

today with Kylie and myself.

Neither of us wanted to budge,

we both wanted to outdo each other.

You know, she took home the win

but I took home a win for myself.

Chicken hungry.

While I'm feeling numb right now,

I'm gonna go read my letter.

- Somehow...I'm allowed to. - Alright, babe.

- Good idea. - Enjoy.

Having everyone come home

yesterday with their letters...

I was shattered to be missing out on that opportunity.

I wanted that letter so bad, and I just-I couldn't wait.

I've got a very close relationship with my family.

I live with my mom and her fiance...

and...got a great friendship with my dad and he...

taught me, from the get-go, that

we weren't allowed to cry unless

something deserved our tears.

He's made me a really tough person and...yeah...

I thank him for that.

"Hi, darling."

"Words cannot express how proud we are"

"of you and what you are taking on."

"As hard as-as it is not hearing from you, we know"

"that the longer it goes, the better you are doing."

"So, keep..."

"So, keep up the good work."

"Dad misses you heaps and he..."

"He can't wait to see you again...and...share"

"cheese breaking with his smarty-pants."

"We're just so proud of you. We love you so much and"

"can't wait to see you. All my love, Mom."

Having support from home and-and having

just-just a couple of words saying that

"I'm proud of you, I love you..." it was fantastic.

Again...it beat any immunity necklace I could ever get.

Should we get wood, you reckon? Anyone else gonna get wood?

- I was, like, go with me, Sam. - Yeah, or if we're gonna need loads

of firewood, maybe we should all go.

Every size. We need big ones, we need little ones.

Last time at Tribal Council...I was...

upset and nervous and angry

upset and nervous and angry that my name was coming up.

But I had the security of the idol.

Tonight...I don't have any security.

I have no hidden immunity idol,

I have no immunity necklace.

I don't know if I have an alliance or not.

My head is...so...

far on the chopping block...

that it's my torso on the chopping block as well.

I need a plan moving forward.

Well, obviously, I'm too stained after last tribal.

So what're you-what're you-What's your plan?

I don't have one.

I-I was thinking...

_

Is it Sue?

- Yeah, are you good with that. - I'm easy with...anything.

People are looking for an easy vote

this time because it's just

- to minimize the craziness of last time. I... - Okay, let's just-let's just...

girls plus you and I...is seven...

- votes for Sue. - Yep.

And then...Sam, Lee and JL vote for Kristie.

So, it's seven and three then.

Oh, and we tell Sue to vote Kristie.

_

Alright, let's get this back in then.

Had a quick conversation with Matt and Kylie...

and just kinda said...

"There...here's the plan."

I thought..."Okay, I'll be first one to kinda..."

"throw the chum out there"

"and hope that they kinda take the bait."

I guess it worked?

- You sure you don't want take this root? - Who cooked dinner?

Beans and dogs are all because the banzi take ten minutes.

- What else is there? - Yeah.

- Well, what are-what are these, including... - Just pretend

- this is real good food.

- Yeah.

- Is that full? - It is.

- Yeah. - Why don't you take one.

Last Tribal Council, I like

to say it was phase one...of removing

a snake from this game.

Yeah, we're onto phase two tonight, Tribal Council.

Talking for ages.

_

- Who..? - What's that?

_

- Yeah.

Say Sue. Say Sue.

- Um...Yeah, but kick in three, .

maybe three people vote for Sue.

- What're-What're-What're your thoughts.

I'll vote for Sue.

_

Naw, naw, we don't need that many.

- I could vote for Sue. - We only need two or three.

- Naw, you...just...

Let's keep it simple.

_

- I can... - Yeah, yeah. We're all Nick. Smash Nick.

- I see. - Calling Nick.

- Okay, I got Nick now.

The people who are voting for Sue is...Nick, Matt and Lee.

And the remaining tribe will be voting for Nick tonight.

I definitely think that anyone...who was from Vavau...

is definitely a threat to-to my alliance because...

it gives Kylie more numbers,

it gives Jennah Louise more numbers.

It's definitely dangerous to keep them around.

The stakes are a lot higher now.

Suey much less important to us girls...

Me, Flick and El, than Nick is at the moment.

Right now, the three of us girls, we're in a really

great position, we've got the boys under our thumbs.

And we're calling the shots a little bit.

Okay.

_

Okay, think ya nailed it.

_

_

They can have him.

Just like the last Tribal Council...

I think that Sam is playing

with his emotions rather than playing with his alliance.

I don't want Nick to go home because...

I feel like if I can keep Nick around

a little bit longer, it will benefit my game.

- I would rather...vote out Sue. - Okay, ready?

- Get ready to go. - Let's do that.

Let's get this road to go on separately and then...

- Let's get this food going, though. - Yeah, let's.

I'll get on the...

- Anyway it's done, we get the rice on one, tonight. - I agree.

- We going to get more? - Yeah.

- Oh. - But...just...Now that Sue is gone,

- I thought it was a good time. - Yeah.

Is everyone cool with...

- Yeah. - that we just go...Sue and then Kristie's the backup?

Yeah. Okay. Yep.

Okay. So, in the end, there should be

seven votes for Sue,

- three votes Kristie and then whatever Sue does. - Yeah.

- Is everyone okay with that? - Yeah.

- Everyone happy? - Happy.

- Yep. - Good.

I feel like...that seemed a little too easy.

But...if everyone kinda thinks that...

just keep their head down and vote off Sue...

Okay. I'll do that, too.

Our tribe always seems to go into Tribal Council

in a bit of a state of chaos and confusion.

- Let's go. - So, who's kinda running it so frantic?

- Well, I think Sammy and...Lee. - And Lee?

Tonight...Sammy and Lee are the main ones in charge...

and...they've sort of been all over the place.

Ah.

- That good for any... - And there's a scaric in that pot,

- so I have to use your second. - Oh.

- What?

- As backup? - I think Kristie...

- it's...the three girls are. - Okay.

- God really knows who. - So, that's four. Plus Nick, five.

Pretty tight, six and five. But that's what it is.

- It's a bit of a mess, hey? - Come over here.

_

_

_

_

- Up. - Getting up.

- Yeah.

_

. - Yeah, don't...

_

My biggest concern tonight is that...

we've given too many votes for Sue.

You alright?

No one really knows who's voting for her.

I hope we don't stuff this up.

Going into Tribal Council...

I had very little trust in my alliance...

but I've got a hell of a lot of hope.

I think it's between Sue and I.

And...

it's just is a matter of...

whether those girls that I gave my word to...

are going to stick with me...

or turn against me at the last minute.

Brooke.

Kylie. Wow.

You guys battled it out for six hours on those poles.

- That was pretty impressive. - That was pretty epic.

I'm feeling it now.

Lee. What'd you think when you see these girls,

- lasting for six hours and they - I'm...I'm in awe.

- could've gone longer? - Actually, I'm in awe..

It's unbelievable what they-what they can do. Um...

Yeah, it's just...such strength and willpower, you know.

I don't know where their mind

takes them in those-in those six hours,

but, em...us simple guys...

we don't last that long, so...

- So, Matt. - Yes.

Today at the challenge...

Brooke said she was...ninety percent confident...

- she was safe in this game. - Yeah, okay.

Do they come back and bite me in the arse?

What'd you think when you heard?

Uh...I-I-I think, to a point, confidence is great in this game.

You just gotta make sure that it doesn't

completely take over everything.

Can I just clarify that my ninety

was like ninety percent faith...in...

the words people have given me, rather than...

- cockiness or confidence? - Of course.

I wasn't suggesting that it was cocky at all.

You feel secure...in this game.

- And you feel secure for a reason. - Yep.

I mean, you were so secure that

you gave away immunity. I mean, that says something.

Yeah. I hope so.

And Matt...where does your confidence lie?

If-If I'm honest, my confidence lies within other people.

And-And that's how I've played this game,

that's how I'll probably continue to play this game.

Your confidence is in your alliance...

basically, is what you're telling me?

I...have a...

fully a ninety-nine percent confidence

in everything that the people that I believe in

and I trust here are saying.

I-I-I wouldn't be with them, otherwise.

I wouldn't believe in them, otherwise.

I've got a lot of confidence in a lot of people here.

I really do.

I really do. Nick.

Jonathan.

I saw you rolling your eyes.

What was that about?

Eh...I think...a lot of people feel safe in this game

because they feel like they're insulated in their alliance.

Which is something that I have felt in the past.

But, eh...

doesn't take much for that confidence to be shaken.

From the moment I met Brooke and Flick at Saanapu,

I just instantly gravitated personally toward them,

but also strategically. And I gave promises to them

which I've kept and they gave promises to me.

Big stuff, as well.

But, em, I feel like tonight is gonna the night that they...

yeah, they go back on that.

Wow.

Yeah, it's hard, because...

obviously everyone knows I'm a huge fan,

everyone knows that I've put, like,

my life on hold to be out here and...

Everyone wants to be here.

Well, one hundred...I'm-I'm talking...

_

Yeah, everyone, everyone.

- Conner...everyone wanted to be here, you know. - One-One hundred percent. Yep.

As far as I see it, you know, we've lost a lot of...

really good people who in just in this final merge

that should still be here...in-in Nick's place,

that's what I feel...and...

I'd-I'd have those people back

in a heartbeat, especially Kate.

So you think that he's less deserving...

- than other people? - Yeah, a hundred percent.

Wow.

What would you say to that, Nick?

I think that's-that's pretty harsh.

"Deserving" is not a metric that you can use

to measure whether someone should be here.

Doesn't matter what's "fair". Survivor isn't "fair".

It just matters what people say.

And what they say they do. And if they do it.

One of the things we spoke about at Saanapu

was that "stick together for as long as possible"

and make sure we pick off the...Vavau people.

That was a...a promise we made as a,

you know, the group, as a core.

We all said it, you know. We don't anyone

to get greedy, we don't want anyone to get paranoid,

we don't want anyone to be kinda...you know,

bite the apple was the metphor we were using.

The core people that I gave

my word to and that I...thought I was with...

I was hoping that that would carry me through, but...

there's a lot of fear in Fia-Fia.

And, um...I think the fear of being the one

that gets thrown under the bus...

pushes people to...

wedge someone else under there pretty quickly.

So, who are these core people you speak of?

I might as well just say it.

Well, we've got...the...Brooke, Flick and now El corps.

Then we have the...Sammy and Lee corps.

And then there's people who exist on the periphery.

So where does Matt fit in this?

I think Matt thinks he's more in than he actually is.

So...

And the boys are Sam and Lee.

And the boys are Sam and Lee.

Would you agree with that, Sue?

I've come into this group knowing that I'm on the bottom...

knowing...that I'm a Vavau.

And I'm going...every single time I come to tribal.

But Kate and I knew we were on the chopping block...

and she held her head up high and she walked out.

And who decided that she should go home

last Tribal Council?

She got six votes.

Someone decided that she was gonna go home.

Kate's a big threat. Maybe that was why.

She was a very big threat.

- Yep. - Yep. She was.

So, you guys decided that she should go home?

- We all decided...as an alliance. - Absolutely.

That's...yeah.

that...yeah. Sam.

Did you speak to your alliance about...

- changing the vote? - It...that-that was where it all

sort of just...was a bit messy

and-and it was probably partially my fault.

Em...you know, I had a bit of an inkling around camp that...

there was a lot of people

that wanted Nick out of the game and...

I also felt the same way as they did.

But Kate went home, instead.

Yeah, and I...I did everything,

you know, I thought I could at that stage to...

gets the numbers to her but...it fell just short.

So you...don't really have the power...to influence

- your alliance. - I didn't think so...yesterday.

An alliance only really works if you all stick together.

But, we'll see tonight.

If the votes stack up the way

they're supposed to tonight, then I'll see...

how good my word is.

Well...we're about the find out.

Let's vote.

Alright...no one can vote...for Kylie.

She is safe tonight. Everyone else...is fair game.

Let's vote.

Kristie...you're up.

You're a snake in every aspect of the word...

and I'm very, very happy that

you'll be leaving the game and not me.

Suey, I'm voting for you for old time's sake.

Whatever.

I'll count the votes.

If anyone has a hidden immunity idol

and they'd like to play it, now'd be the time to do so.

Well...

Just give me a second to put my buff on for this.

Oh, my God.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final.

Person voted out...

will be asked to leave the Tribal Council are immediately.

Now that person voted out...

will become the first member of our jury.

That jury will then vote

to decide which which of the final two contestants

wins the half-million dollars and title of "Sole Survivor".

I'll read the votes.

First vote...

Sue.

Sue.

Sue.

Three votes Sue.

Nick.

That's three votes Sue, one vote Nick.

Nick.

Three votes Sue...two votes Nick.

Nick.

We're tied. Three votes Nick...three votes Sue.

Nick.

Four votes Nick...three votes Sue.

Nick. Five votes Nick, three votes Sue.

Fourteenth person voted out from Australian Survivor...

and the first member of our jury...Nick.

That's enough votes.

You need to bring me your torch.

Guys, I'm leaving my dream

that's sixteen years in the making.

It's been an honor.

Oh, I'm geeking out so hard right now.

- Do it. - Nick...

- Do it. - your tribe has spoken.

Awesome.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

Give me a hug, you big beautiful man.

Alright.

- See you later, guys. - Get out of here.

Well...

Nick certainly painted a detailed picture of this tribe.

We'll soon see how accurate it is.

Grab your torches. Head back to camp.

Next time on Australian Survivor...

Nick's parting words have exposed the tribe.

Who will survive the fallout?

He knows he's no longer in this alliance and

he'll start thinking of ways to-to get us out.

This game is so brutal, it's so brutal.

I..cannot believe that I'm the first member of the jury.

A huge milestone that everyone wants to achieve...

I get to set the tone for what the jury is like.

And don't worry, I will be setting the tone.

You can't get rid of me this easy.

I will be on that bench...

and I'll be holding them accountable,

not only at the end...but every single tribal.
