- ...me and you get out alive.
- I know. I know. Yeah.

Me and you to the end,
I promise you.

Bottoms Up.

Love it.

I really like
the Bottoms Up alliance

that I formed with Sage and
Jawan. I think they're sitting

very safely

in the power position.

Yeah.

They have been

calling the shots

too long.

So, today is the day
to make a move.

Really?

This one is for using my bag

and my water bottle.

If anybody has an advantage

or an idol
and you want to play it

now would be the time to do so.

Uncle J?

I'm playing this for Steven.

Jeff, let's have
a little bit of fun here.

I'm playing it for Savannah.

This is...

not a hidden immunity item.

- What the hell?
- What?
- What?

-Bro!
- What?

Eleventh person voted out and
the fourth member of our jury:

Jawan.

The tribe has spoken.

Much love. I love y'all.

Tribal was

absolutely insane from

the kickoff all the way through

Jawan getting his torch snuffed.

Hey, you guys are good, too.

I thought
Savannah would go home.

And yet here we are.

Savannah's still here,
Rizo's still here,

with an idol, and

I don't really know
what's going on.

Everyone was telling me that
the votes were landing on me.

I'm gonna be honest.
We heard

that Sage and Jawan
were flipping on us,

so we decided to strike.

play my idol for Steven.

Playing my idol

when I definitely didn't need to
really stings.

Steven didn't get
one single vote,

and I didn't either,

so, I did not need
to play this idol at all.

I'm not gonna lie, Kristina.

I felt like you had something.

was to get Kristina
to play hers.

But the fact that
she beat me to it--

it kind of was just like,

let me lean into it,
let me have fun.

And the jury ate it up
and it really felt like

a monumental stepping stone.

If I can somehow make it

to one of those
final three seats,

I'd have a really good case
of winning this game.

We're all still here. Yeah.

- I just wanted to let you know.
- Yeah.

When I heard, uh, like,

they were switching to Jawan,
I was like,

"I need to get this boy out
because I think

- he's controlled
the last three votes."
-Yeah.

Tribal Council went wonderfully.

And I, like, didn't think Sage

would ever write his name down.

And I was like,
"I don't know if we'll ever have

numbers again to get Jawan out."

Even though I started the game
with Steven and Kristina,

I flipped to be

in the majority of four

with Rizo, Savannah and Soph.

And the reason being is because

Steven and Kristina have
really never let me in

on the full picture
and all of the information.

I, to them, have just
kind of been,

like, an assumption

that I will do what they say

because we were
on Hina together.

But now that it's getting
to brass tacks,

I am putting myself and my own
game first from here on out.

Oh, yeah.

- And, like...
- Oh, thanks. Same.

And so now,

my job is to talk to Sage.

I knew she would be most hurt

by this vote, and

I also knew that she would be
the least understanding.

Well, first,
just want to apologize

for lying to you
and for voting out Jawan.

I just realized that

he is a much bigger threat to me

in Final Tribal Council
than Savannah.

Like, he...

I did not hand her
a million dollars.

I was shocked. I just

did not have any thought

of "Jawan's gonna
be going home tonight."

Losing the only person out here

that I trust 1,000%

is devastating.

It's confusing, it's scary,
but also, like,

I'm pissed.

Sage, I just want to apologize

because I did not think

if I told you Jawan,
you would write his name down.

What hurt the most, Sophie,
is that after his name got read,

you had the biggest smile
on your face.

Because I got rid of somebody
who was going to get me out,

who was going to beat me
in a Final Tribal.

I'm... Sage, I'm not going
to apologize for that.

I saw Jawan as a massive threat
after today. He...

It's not about that.
It's about me.

- Now I'm ... screwed.
- No, you're not.

I just wrote down
... Savannah's ... name.

Are you kidding me?

I'm upset with Sophie because

she blindsided me,

and she's getting frustrated
that I'm frustrated,

which quite frankly,
I don't care.

Honestly, I don't want Sophie
in here anymore.

Tonight was humiliating.

Like, Rizo rubbing it in,
like, knowing

that I'm gonna be the one
looking like a freakin' idiot.

Like, that ... hurts, guys.

- Like...
-I know.

That really hurts.

I'm hurt, but that was

the stupidest move
Sophie could have done

because I'm still here.

She's gonna regret this.

Okay, let me rip me this
and get you guys

- started on this stuff.
Like, I can...
- Thanks.

You take some, too.

I know.

and they are my main allies.

I feel closer to them than some
friends that I have back home.

But when I look at my game
and the bigger picture,

very obvious that
I'm number three in that trio.

I'm at the bottom.

And so, I do see myself

turning on Savannah and Rizo
at some point.

It's just a matter of when.

And I do think if there's a time

where I'm gonna
flip on my allies,

I need to gather the troops

and prepare everybody
for battle,

and no one will see it coming.

Yeah?

So, right now,
I need people like Sage

to help me make
these big moves down the line.

And it is scary because

she's such an
emotional player, but

Sage does have
this gamer side to her,

and I know that she wants to get
Savannah out of this game.

In the next vote, at least four
people have to work together.

How... Like, where do you want
to go with that?

You're scared, but, like, I feel
like you're actually good.

Right, but, like,
who would that... Who?

I don't know. I have no idea.

That's why I'm, like...

I'm willing
to adapt in this game.

If that means me,
you and Sophie voting together,

with, like, whatever,
Kristina or Steven,

to get a bigger threat out,
I am down.

And I mean that.

Like, Savannah and Rizo--
I know they're big targets.

And I'm not stupid.

I want to go for them, too,
and I genuinely mean that.

And I think we're gonna need
to work together to do that--

to get bigger threats out.

- I want to trust you so bad.
- I know. I know. I know.

to turn on Savannah and Rizo,
but I'm not buying it.

I still feel very confident

that her loyalty ultimately

lies with Rizo and Savannah.

I don't see a world where

I sit next to Savannah
at the end and I win.

- Nobody.
Nobody wins against her.
- Exactly. Like, I see that.

I'm not stupid in that way.
Like, I know.

And, like, I actually think,
out of everybody here,

me and you sitting next
to each other

gives us the best opportunity.

- And I think
you might see that, too.
- Yeah.

to each other last night

at Tribal Council.

We aimed our guns at our
number one allies, except I won.

But I really do want
to work with Sage.

I feel like I need her
in this game, and I want to sit

next to her in a final three.

I'm, like,
putting my game on the line

right here telling you this,

because if that gets back
to Savannah and Rizo, I'm done.

Like, our relationship's over.

But I'm willing
to, like, kind of gamble

in order
to gain your trust back,

and for you to understand that,
like, you know, I'm down.

but at this point,
I'm freaking pissed at Sophie,

and so, I actually preferred
for her to go home.

She's extremely smart,
she's extremely in tune.

And I could get some revenge.

Let's see
what this is all about.

is a beacon of hope
for some people

or a boat full of dread
for others,

because it potentially
signifies a journey,

which means advantage,
or losing your vote.

Show me the money.

that there's a target
on my back, and so

this is exactly
what I've been waiting for.

Here we go.

"One person must
get on this boat

"for a strenuous journey.

You will return
to camp this afternoon."

- Strenuous?
- Strenuous.

- Oh, man.
- That's what it says.

You know, "strenuous" is

the operative word.

The note reads that

there's gonna
be a strenuous activity.

We're at the phase in the game

where our bodies
are so hungry that

every amount of strength

that you can maintain is huge.

So, I decide,

"Look, I'm-I'm...
I'm not about it."

And essentially, everyone
is kind of on the same page.

I think I might
sit this one out.

I don't really want to,
to be honest.

I don't really want to, either.

I might be out then, too.

I'm 50-50.
If you're 100, you can have it.

I'll go. I'll just go.

Everybody else is, like,
afraid of going on this journey.

But in a game

where I'm currently
at the bottom,

feeling like I have nothing,

and I'm just, like,
clawing for anything, now,

I can win this advantage.

And at this point,
I want to be back

in the driver's seat
that I was hoping to be in

after last night's vote.

Instead, my plan blew up.
And so,

I want to be the one
that's making some moves.

It's about damn time!

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

-Have fun out there.
- Have fun.

about Steven
being on the journey.

He is one of the biggest threats
in this game.

So I wouldn't be surprised if
he came back with an advantage.

That said, I'm hoping

that this journey exhausts him,

and that he's not gonna
be a threat

in the next immunity challenge,
because that is a challenge

that I feel like I not only
want to win but I need to win.

We need to talk about next vote.

Because if Steven
gets something

or if he wins...

Well, so where-where are you
right now?

I know. Yes.

- And loses a vote.
- Yeah.

That has the chance to ruin any

and everybody's game
at this point

because he is
on the chopping block.

There's so much uncertainty.
You know what I mean?

But it sounds like
we're on the same page,

- so, that's, like,
the most important thing.
- Yeah.

Cool.

Worst-case scenario is that

he gets some advantage

and then he wins
tomorrow's challenge.

So I need to start thinking
through some backup plans.

- I think...
- I worry that he's gonna
get an advantage.

Or something? Yeah. Yeah.

I know. I'm so scared now.

- He's, like, the worst person
to go on this.
- I know.

- Okay.
- What do we do?

Ideally, I would like
to get Steven out of this game

because we haven't
worked together once,

he's only lied to me,
I've only lied to him.

But if Steven is safe,
like, what am I gonna do?

I don't know if I'm ready

to backstab my allies right now
or wait.

Then I think we'd have
to go Savannah or Rizo.

I think so, too.

-Yeah.
- where Rizo doesn't
play his idol

- on either of them.
- Yeah, on either of them.

she's more dangerous
realistically

- than Rizo.
- Yeah.

on this journey changes the game
because there is

a possibility that I might have
to turn on Rizo and Savannah

at this Tribal Council.

And even though it's not
necessarily what I want to do,

it might be something
that I have to do.

Yeah. Right.

But I need... I feel like
I need to. Like, I just...

Well, yeah, I know
we need to get her out. That...

- Yeah, we do.
- We do, too. And I need to...

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Like, full stop.

that she doesn't want

to sit next to Savannah
at the end.

And so, if

Steven wins tomorrow or he gets
some type of advantage,

Soph and I are gonna
try to take out Savannah.

- Yes.
- Let's go?

I am praying

Steven's journey is
the most strenuous thing ever,

and he does not walk away
with an advantage.

As I'm arriving on the
boat, I'm thinking to myself,

"This is an opportunity

to totally turn things around
for me."

On the one hand,
it's terrifying.

I know it's gonna be hard,
I know it's gonna be strenuous.

If I lose my vote,
I'm a sitting duck,

they're gonna pick me off
very easily.

But on the flip side,
if I get an advantage,

I can take control of this game.

This is a big lifeline.

Whoo! Numbers.

And that looks like a pot.

I walk up to the treasure chest,

and I see a note.

"It's day 20. You're exhausted.

"And today's journey is going
to push you even more.

"Inside the pot
is a valuable advantage.

"But you can't smash it open

until you solve
the combination lock."

"Remembering the six numbers
you need?

"That will be the easy part.

"The hard part is what it takes
to collect them.

"You'll have to navigate
around this island,

"covering serious ground
to reach each number.

"It's going to take
whatever energy you've got left.

"And you'll need to move quickly
because with every

"passing minute,
the tide is rising.

"If the water lifts the pot
high enough,

"it will reach the top
of the structure,

"break free
and drop into the ocean.

"When that happens,

"your shot at the advantage
and your vote

at the next Tribal Council
are gone."

It's insane.
I'm gonna need

to run around

the entire perimeter
of this big, freakin' island

and find six numbers.

If I don't, my game
is as dead in the water

as that pot is gonna be

once it drops in.

All right.

Let's go!

I just take off running.
I don't even think.

Just put one foot in front
of the other

and keep moving,
don't stop, don't walk.

I come across
this big parchment,

and I flip it over to reveal

the number on it.

One, one, one. Easy.

But it takes six numbers

to unlock the treasure chest.

So, I want to be moving fast,

because that tide is getting
higher by the minute, and

I need to make sure I get back

with plenty of time
to unlock that advantage.

Eight. Eight. 18.

It's tiring, it's dangerous,

and on top of that,

so, not only are you
remembering these numbers,

but you're also scrambling

to get there
as quick as possible.

Eighteen and four. 184.

184.

One, eight, four.
There's number four. Whoo!

One, eight, four, three.

I keep looking over.
I just keep seeing

the waves
getting a little bit bigger.

That tide is getting higher
by the second,

and I know that this race
against time is gonna be tight.

And I'm just saying the numbers

over and over and over
so I don't forget.

Eighteen, forty... three.

Eighteen, forty... three.

There were moments where I just
wanted to sit down

and take a breath,
and I said no,

because this could be

the lifeline
that turns my game around.

Forty, three.

Eighteen, forty... three.

Two.

Eighteen, forty... three, two.

The higher the tide goes,
the closer

I get to losing my vote.

I'm on the bottom. I need this.

And it's just
that much more motivation

to keep moving forward.

Forty-three, two, 18.

Forty-three.

Twenty-five, 18...

I get to that last number, and
that is my, like, North Star.

I just kept telling myself,
"Thank God

"this hellish, brutal trek

is almost to an end."

Eighteen, 43, 25. 18...

I run down that last stretch,

and I see the finish line,

and all I can think
to myself is,

"If I get those numbers wrong,

I am for sure going home
as the seventh vote-out."

Eighteen, 43, 25.

Let's go! Let's go!

Yeah!

Eighteen, 43, 25!

Whoo!

That was the hardest thing
I've ever done.

Yeah!

I'm just so proud

of what I've accomplished,

because it was something
I never thought I could do.

And on top of that, I know

that I didn't lose my vote,

and I know
I'm not dead in this game,

and I know there's a chance

that I can live
to fight another day.

"This advantage allows you

to secretly block a vote
from another player."

"...but they will not know
by whom."

Wow.
Oh, my God.

This is

so powerful
at this stage in the game.

And I can't wait
to see what I come up with.

I've never felt this good
in my entire life,

and also this gassed.

I'm, like, happy crying.

I don't even know
why I'm crying.

I'm just, like,
feeling so emotional.

I'm not sad.

I just, like,

feel everything turned up

to, like, a thousand
inside me right now.

I'm, like, moved to tears
from, like,

the crazy feat
that I just accomplished. Like,

I didn't know
I had that in me,

and I came to Survivor to, like,
really see what I could do.

And, like, I am

capable of so much more
than I give myself credit for.

I was crying
on day one out here,

because I came into this game
with imposter syndrome.

I was insecure and I thought
that people wouldn't like me

and I thought that
I couldn't do this.

And now I'm out here crying
because I know I can do it.

Regardless of how
the rest of this game goes,

I'm so happy.

Yeah. Okay, ready?

- All right. You hear?
- I don't.

- Right there?
- Okay.

You're gonna stay here.

I'm gonna make the first move.
We'll see if she reacts.

Okay.

I didn't come here
to be a chicken wrangler, guys.

She's coming.

And so,
the plan for the afternoon is

to cook these chickens,
and this plan is

so much simpler in theory.

immunity challenge,
trying to find these chickens.

Guys, he's right here.

They're freakin'
climbing the trees,

bawking at us.

Basically saying,

"Ah, you can't catch me.

You got to starve
for another six days."

In this chicken chase,
the chickens are winning.

Where is it now?

-Go, go! Get it! Get it!
-Get it!

to chase some chickens,

especially not a chicken
that was flying and--

caw-caw!-- in my face.

I felt like
I was being attacked.

I'm so sorry. That was insane.

Being from New York City,
I'm people smart

and street smart,
but I'm not chicken smart.

I know.

Right? I know.

Steven's here, guys.

He's here.

Welcome back.

Coming back to camp,
I'm trying to figure out exactly

how I'm gonna spin
this new advantage

that I've gotten
in the most optimal way.

That was the hardest thing
I've ever done in my life.

Do you want to go
and... by camp?

I just want to lie down.

-All right.
-Oh, my God.

I know a lot
of Survivor players.

They come in, they got

this great plan,
they tell a great story.

And I'm still
trying to figure out,

"What do I tell them?"

Um, pull up to the island,

and there is, like,
a treasure chest.

And the treasure chest has,
like, a lock,

- like, a six-lock
combination on it.
- Yeah.

I explain exactly what happens,

down to a T.

I did have the combination,

- so I do have my vote.
-Yay!

And...

So I decide

to say I did win an advantage,

but I'm not going to tell them
it's a Block a Vote, and,

hopefully, instill a little bit
of fear within the tribe.

That was, like, the worst thing

- I've ever done
in my entire life.
-Yeah.

Rizo-- his demeanor changes from

concerned, like,
"Are you okay?" to...

...you know, robot style.

And I know he's running through

every single scenario.

And honestly, I want him
to spin his wheels a little bit.

It's something like that.

They're probably gonna
steal my vote

because they want me
to play the idol on myself.

With Steven not

cluing me in
to what this advantage is,

the Survivor fan in me
can only do is speculate.

And to me,

a vote steal would be
the worst-case scenario.

So, vote steal.

He can steal one of our votes.

So now it's gonna
be three-three.

Now it's gonna be four-three
in their favor.

Him, Sage
and Kristina control.

Rizo is freaking the hell out
about Steven's advantage,

but I'm not worried about it.

I have the
Knowledge Is Power Advantage.

I could just take
his advantage from him.

Right now, nobody knows about
my Knowledge Is Power Advantage,

and I want to keep it that way.

So that's giving me
a little bit of hope

that I can survive this next

Tribal Council,
no matter what happens.

Honestly, like,
if I know this game,

I'm...
I know what you got, and...

What do you think it is?

A vote steal.

I feel like
I got a pretty good read.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Um, just makes the most sense.

I kind of went very direct
at Steven

just to kind of see
his body language.

And Steven's, like...
was shocked.

He was like, "Oh, my God, like,

How do I react?"

So, I feel like

I have a pretty good inclination
of what it can be.

You don't got
to confirm or deny, um,

but I'm sure
you're gonna tell people,

just, I might not be
that people you tell.

He thinks he's got the whole
advantage thing figured out.

He thinks it's a Steal a Vote,
which is great news for me,

cause that is, like,
one tier more powerful

than a Block a Vote,

and if it's that more powerful,
then that means

he's that much more
afraid of it,

and it gives me more
maneuverability to strike.

This might sound crazy,
but I want

to do something for us
to help each other move forward,

but I don't want
to be the one to go home.

- And that's why
I'm coming to you.
- Yeah.

Because I know for a fact
you have a vote steal.

Like, I know it for a fact.

Okay.

A lot of paranoia
is floating around,

and that's all you really need
in this game

is a little chaos.

Today, I went from having
little to no options

moving forward
to having a lot of options.

That's how quickly
this game can change.

Come on in.

Hey, Jeff.

- Still smiling.
- Oh, yeah.

Think what you've been through,

and you're still
all showing those pearly whites.

I don't know if my teeth
are pearly whites, Jeff,

- but they're smiling, all right.
-I don't know, Rizo,

they look pretty good, man.

Twenty-one days into Survivor.

You're upright.
That's saying something.

- That's true.
-Hell, yeah.

Oh.

What are you saying, Soph?
You looked...

- you looked at this challenge.
- Yeah.

- And-and what did you say?
- I thought

I actually recognize
this challenge a little bit.

- I have an idea
of what it could be
-Okay.

based on the past, but...

Okay, lay it on me.

Um...

You be me.

I don't think so.

Steven.

I think I might have an idea.

- We're gonna have to spell...
-No, no, no,

- wait, wait.
- You got to do it in Jeff.
- In Jeff.

- All right.
-You be Jeff.

All right, here we go.

Today, you're gonna have

seven blocks that are gonna
spell the word "immunity."

I think that's
the right number of letters.

From there,

you're gonna put them
on a platform,

where you're gonna
be spinning it

as you pull backwards.

You're gonna need to keep
those letters safe, or

from falling over.

I can't do you as well.

- That's pretty good.
- But did I get it right?

That's pretty close, Steven.

- Yeah!
- Nice.

All right.
Let's officially get to it.

Even though you just did it.

Sophie, got to take it back.

For the second time.

Thank you.

Once again, immunity
is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge,

you're gonna be wearing
a belt with a rope.

That rope is attached

to a rotating disc.

On my go, you're gonna race

to stack letter blocks.

As you move, that disc spins.

That's gonna make it more
difficult to balance your stack.

If at any point
your stack drops,

you got to start over.

The first person
to spell "immunity"...

...wins immunity.

Guaranteed a spot

in the final six.

- Six.
- Right.

In addition, you're
playing for reward.

Want to know
what you're playing for?

Waiting for you back at camp...

spaghetti.

Spaghetti
with meat sauce.

- Oh, my God.
-Spaghetti with pesto.

- Mmm.
- Spaghetti
with the garlic bread.

- Oh, my gosh.
-Plus some juices

- and iced tea.
- Ooh.

And you want some dessert?

Why not? It's day 21.
A little tiramisu.

Worth playing for?

Losers, Tribal Council,

where somebody will be
the 12th person voted out,

- become the fifth member
of our jury.
- Wow.

We are getting down to it.
You want to see another day

- in this game,
you win it right here.
- Mm-hmm.

Everybody take your spots.
We'll get it on.

Let's go.
Well done, Steven.

Shall we get to it?

-Let's do it.
-Let's get to it.

All right.

Survivors ready.

Begin.

Day 21.

New elements
to a familiar challenge.

You're gonna be stacking
letter blocks,

trying to spell
the word "immunity"...

...while that disc rotates,

making it more difficult
to keep that stack intact.

You got to have
both feet up on that platform

when you grab a letter block.

Steven back
with his second letter block.

Here comes Soph.
Rizo coming back.

Sophie coming back.

Savannah with her second.

Sage with her second.

Here comes Kristina.

The question in this new version

of a familiar challenge is

what is the right strategy?

You've never done it.

You've never seen it like this.

Do you take it fast
and hope you can

keep that stack together
or do you

go slow and wait
for somebody else to falter?

Steven moving quickly.

He's got his third letter.

Here comes Savannah
with her third letter.

These early letters are easy.

You can make some mistakes.

It can be a little wobbly.

But you get higher, getting
closer to spelling that word,

the way you're stacking them
early is gonna really matter.

Here comes Steven
with another letter.

It is Steven in the lead,

just barely over Sage.

Everybody else chasing them now.

Big strategic decision

at this point in the challenge.

"Do I speed up?

Do I slow down?"

Steven's played it the same way
from the go.

"I'm-a go full-tilt boogie,
see how it goes."

Soph with another letter.

Rizo's trying to stay in it.

Here comes Steven,
down to two letters left.

Then Sage.

Here comes Kristina.
She's really taking her time.

She's betting
on people dropping.

Here comes Steven
with another letter.

It would be a second
individual immunity win.

Steven down
to one letter left now.

Got a little bit of a wobble.

Steven taking a moment
to adjust.

And in the time it takes,
that opens the door

for Sage and Soph.

Soph has picked up the pace
a little bit.

She's now gaining on Steven.

Steven's stack
is really leaning now.

Can it hang on?

That stack has got to be really

strong and straight,

'cause the higher it gets,

the more tenuous it becomes.

Soph a little wobbly.

Got to get it back.

Soph loses everything.

Soph has to gather
all of her pieces,

take 'em back, start over.

Steven down to one letter left.

That stack is really angled.

How much will gravity play

as Steven continues
to rotate that stack

with every step he takes?

Sage coming back
with another letter.

Down to two letters left.

Savannah staying in it.

She's got two left.

Steven is going
for broke right now.

This is either gonna
win it for him

or it's gonna be
a disastrous ending,

because Sage
is right on his tail.

Steven

grabs his last letter.

Could he win it with this letter

and keep that stack intact?

Sage down to one letter left.

Sophie still in it.

Rizo still in it.

Savannah's in it.

Here it is. Right now,

it is Steven in the lead.

If he can
keep that stack together

without dropping...

It is really gonna be close.

If it will hang on.

It is top-heavy, for sure.

Everybody else
hoping for one thing:

the sound
of blue blocks falling.

Savannah down
to one letter left,

hoping for disaster.

That stack is so close
to tipping.

Three steps away for Steven,

and one drop away
from opening the door

for Sage and Savannah.

It's got to stick and stand
for three seconds.

Get both feet up
on that platform.

There it is.

Three, two, one.

- It's over!
- Yeah!

Steven has done it.

And then it drops seconds later.

- Wow.
-
That's how close it was.

Wow. Second individual
immunity win for Steven.

- Yes.
- Good job, buddy.

Good job, Steven.

Yes.

Steven, come on over.

For the second time this season,

individual immunity is yours.

So, first, let's talk about

guaranteeing your spot at six.

That is very close to the end.

What's the feeling right now
in terms of security

going into tonight's Tribal?

It-it feels strange because

the last couple days,
I've kind of felt like

my name's been out there,
and, like, it makes sense,

and I've been on the wrong side
of two votes, back-to-back.

So, in this moment
going into tonight,

this safety kind of means
everything for me because

I'm having a really hard time.
I thought I would be better

at reading people,
but there are moments

where I can't tell if someone's
telling the truth or not.

And this gives me a little bit

of a security blanket
to hopefully

- get that one step further.
- So Steven, this should make

the next part of this
really interesting,

because you're gonna
go back to camp for spaghetti.

That is not only
fuel for your body

and your spirit, it's also
a decision politically,

because you're gonna choose
somebody to enjoy it with you.

So, tell me the first person
that's gonna join you

and why, given everything
that's happening in this game.

Given everything that's happened
in this game, uh,

trust means everything,
and following through

on your word and your promises
is the world in a game

where those are getting broken
every single day.

So, I have
to bring my girl Kristina.

She played
the hidden immunity idol on me.

- That was a huge leap of faith.
- Thanks.

And I need to repay your trust

by-by bringing you with me
on this reward.

- Thank you, thank you.
-Come on over, Kristina.

All right, Steven,
you can choose

- one more person.
So, in doing so,
-Aw, crap.

three of you will be
back at the same camp

with the other four.
But you three

will be feasting and bonding
and strategizing,

while the other four--
which is more than three--

will be doing the same thing.

Who you gonna pick?
And first, tell me

why you're making this choice.

We've all been out here
a lot of days.

We've all been out here
a lot of days without food.

And I think there's
one person out here

who's been out here
without food for the longest.

And I need to see Rizo
get some food.

So Rizo,
you come over here, buddy.

This is something
you can eat and...

- Thank you.
- Good.

Thank you.

All right, here's the afternoon.

Steven, Kristina, Rizo,

spaghetti, tiramisu,

nice afternoon.

Sage, Savannah, Soph, Sophie,
got nothing for you.

See you tonight at Tribal
Council, where somebody will be

the 12th person voted out

and the fifth member
of our jury.

Grab your stuff, head out.

Steven winning
definitely forces people

to change their plans, and

it opens up the door
to get out Sophie.

I'm looking forward to tonight.

It would be vengeance for Jawan.

One of the most compelling
things about Survivor

is when you're out here,
you got to make a decision.

Steven made a decision,
he went for it, and it worked.

What would you do?
Only way to find out:

you got to apply
to be on Survivor.

Oh, this is beautiful.

Steven, you're my hero.

No. Kristina, you're my hero.

You burned an idol on me, dude.

This is the least I can do
to repay that.

This win today was huge.

Just one vote ago
after the Jawan blindside,

I was lost in space.

I was drifting aimlessly.

- You killed that challenge,
Steven.
- Yeah, you did.

I had no agency in the game.

Now I'm feeling
on top of the world.

Everything is coming up Steven.

- This is me being honest
with you guys.
-Mm-hmm.

Like, 100. This is, like,
everything candid.

Um, yes, I know I have the idol,

but I have no intention
of playing it on someone to make

another move,
because then I'm vulnerable.

- You know what I mean?
- Right.

- My intention is
to build trust with you guys.
- Mm-hmm.

my plan is
to protect my core three

of Soph, Savannah and I.

So, heading into this reward,

my MO is to make sure

that Steven and Kristina
feel like I'm with them

and we can find a common enemy

and get their torch snuffed
tonight.

So, the way I look at it is

I would actually really
would like Yellow Sophie

to go home tonight.

It just makes the most sense.

In terms of, like,
winner equity,

she's number one right now.

She's the only player left

to have voted correctly
every single time.

- And she's finished top three
- Every challenge.

- every challenge.
- Yep.
- Yep.

And she's a good talker.

Yeah, 100%,
especially at Tribal.

Yes, Sophie voted with us
at the last Tribal Council,

but she's a big threat to win.

So I'm hoping it lands
in these people's craniums

that getting her out

is the best thing for all of us.

This is game time.
This is where I can

be a little bit of my salesman,

and do my best sales pitch,
and say, "Guys,

this is obvious. Like,
do we want to lose to Sophie?"

I feel like now, at final seven,

get her out.
And honestly, like,

I think we can get the majority,
and it would be advantageous,

'cause you can then keep your
whatever your advantage is

- Mm-hmm.
- for one more round.

because if everyone's voting
Sophie, that would mean

I don't need
to use my Block a Vote.

That is huge

because that Block a Vote

becomes ten times
more powerful at six.

I'm trying not to play
an emotional game right now.

- I-I...
- I'm trying to, like,
keep it strategic.

And I think it is
the right strategic move.

A hundred percent.

I think we've got
a really solid plan.

And I want you guys to know,

I promise you guys,
that's what I'm doing.

I've been truthful when
I tell people what I want to do,

and I'm telling you guys
that's who I want out.

Yeah, same here.
That's who I plan to write down.

Maybe...

Yeah.

-Same.
- Cool.

I want to take out Sophie,

which is completely
against what I want to do.

I think it's no secret
at this point

that I've wanted Savannah
out of the game.

We just have personalities

that don't necessarily vibe,

and she is a threat.

We've been trying
to take multiple stabs at her,

and it's, like,

finally, we can get Savannah
out of this game.

Mm-hmm.

- He's really proven
to be a beast.
- I know.

Never would have guessed.

-No.
- Seriously.

-Played a slow start.
- Right?

Yeah, very slow start.

I wonder if that
was intentional.

-I wouldn't be
surprised, you know?
- Oh.

Steven is extremely

dangerous in this game,

and he's definitely someone
that we all want to target.

But unfortunately, Steven

wins the immunity necklace.

Luckily, Soph and I
had kind of been cooking up

this scheme that, like,
"Hey, at some point,

we need to flip on Savannah."

She is a challenge threat,

she's dangerous.

I'll be at the palm.

because we can't
vote out Steven, I'm wondering

if I can get Soph and Sage

to all vote Savannah with me.

I think so.

- Yeah.
-Okay.
I'm feeling good about that.

Yeah, me too.

- I think this is better
for all of our games.
-Yes.

It's funny.

I have been trying to get
Savannah out of this game

since before the freaking merge,
but Sophie

totally blindsided me last time.

So, I want Sophie out.

I would love to be able

to look over at Jawan
when her name is hopefully read

and just have that moment of,
"I got you, man."

Because in this game,

when you piss me off,
you go home.

Soph?

She's the only person who's been
on the right side of the vote

- every single vote.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Rizo will be on board, as well.
-Yeah.

Yeah. Okay, cool. Easy.

Sophie goes off on her own,
and during that moment,

Sage and Soph both say,

"We're going after Sophie."

That gives me some relief,
but at the same time,

it is early in the day, and

I know that I am someone

whose name
is gonna be thrown out.

I had to lie in my bed,

but now she's gonna
have to lie in hers.

- I like that.
- She did this to herself.

-Mm-hmm.
-She did this to herself.

I'm putting a lot
of trust right now in Sage,

and she has actually
been one of my enemies

this entire time.

But I know how badly
Sage wants the revenge. So,

my hope tonight
is to get Sophie out of here.

And if I fail,
I'll give you one guess

at who's going home.

Me.

Tell me all about it, please.

- What'd you say?
-Tell me.

- Give us the details.
- Tell me all about it.

I know you're struggling to walk
'cause you're so full.

Don't pretend.

As everybody gets back
from the reward,

I think I have to connect
with Savannah and Soph

to make sure that Sophie's

the one that goes home tonight.

And if we make it out
of this round,

we're looking pretty damn good.

to take Savannah out.

So, me targeting Sophie

is advantageous for my game

because I'm getting out
a big threat

and someone who wants
to take out my number one ally.

It's two... it's two birds
for the price of...

It's two stones...

Is it... one stone for two?
Uh...

It's like the cherry on top
if we can

take out Sophie tonight.

I don't want to throw out names,

- but I really want
Yellow Sophie out because
- Yeah.

if we let her keep going
and flip-flop back and forth,

- she's gonna win.
- Dude, you don't
have to convince me.

- Yeah.
- This is music to my ears.

- I see it. I...
- Yeah?

Dude, everything you're saying,
I'm right there with you.

- Yeah?
- Like, I see the exact
thing you're seeing.

Sophie's getting
very comfortable

-I agree. Yeah.
- and a little bit arrogant.

So I think this is a vote
where we're all on board.

- I agree.
- Yeah.

I was gonna say,
I told Steven and Kristina, too,

like, "Hey, I know
we didn't vote together,

but, like, we would be stupid to
let her go out another round."

they really don't
respect my game.

But

I'm so excited to get Sophie
out of this game.

She's a huge challenge threat.

And it would also double as

revenge for my boy Jawan.

So I'm gonna have to

put back on the lying face

so that she thinks
Savannah's my next target.

And hopefully,

send Sophie's

confident-slash-arrogant butt
home.

I'm so freakin' excited.

This is ultimately

how we successfully
get Savannah out.

I think this could really work.

- We got me, you,
Soph was totally in it.
- Yeah.

Um, me, you,

Soph, Kristina, Steve. Yeah.

We're solid. We're solid.

This'll be huge.

Like, I've been trying
to get Savannah out.

- Oh.
- I've broken a record
at this point.

- I know.
- Since day one, so...

I was like, "We are not
giving her a million dollars."

I was like, "Sage is right."

Sage and Soph-- they are down

to vote Savannah with me.

But

in a tribe of seven,
we need at least four.

The good news is

Kristina has bad blood
with Savannah,

and I think would write
her name down in a heartbeat.

So, if I can
get Kristina and Steven,

that's plenty,
Savannah is going home.

I know... I know
I've said this eight times

-Mm-hmm.
- and you have no reason
to believe me...

Yeah.

- Yeah.
-Yeah.

- You know how I feel.
- I agree with you.

I know it's been...

Where are the numbers?

Okay. cool.

Sophie's pitching to me

Savannah, someone I've been
trying to get out

for the last two
Tribal Councils.

I would love
to knock her out of the game.

If we have the numbers,
Savannah is a target

that we need to get rid of ASAP.

You have to be fluid,
you have to be flexible.

And if voting for Sophie
allows me

to save this advantage
for one more Tribal Council,

I might have to do that.

It's a really big choice.

There are two big targets
up for grabs.

This is gonna be
one for the books.

Sage, Savannah and Rizo

are targeting Sophie.

And it looks like Sophie,

Steven and Kristina
are targeting Savannah.

So that's three against three,
which means

I actually have
a lot of power here.

And so, maybe I should
put my vote on Savannah.

That's like a super boss move
on my résumé.

But that means I'd be going
into the end of this game

with people
I don't 1,000% trust.

because she's also
been winning these challenges,

she's a big threat,
she's somebody I don't want

to sit next to at the end.

And so, whichever way I go
tonight-- Sophie or Savannah--

it's gonna be
a really hard decision.

But I've gotten myself this far

trusting my gut,

so that's what I'm gonna do.

We'll now bring in the members
of our jury.

I want to start

with the last Tribal Council.

Sage, the Jawan blindside

was obviously
very emotional to you.

So talk to me about that moment.

Yeah. Oh, God.

Just bringing it up
makes me want to cry.

Um, you know, I've been open

about some of the things
I deal with back home.

Um, and a major way
I cope with that

is through laughter, and, uh,
with my partner, Austin,

and Jawan has just been...

I can't even look at you, man.

Um, Jawan has just been

that, like, stabilizing place
for me in this game.

And I knew being close with him
would put a huge target

on my back
because you have a clear duo,

but, um, going back at camp,

like, I can't fake emotion.

Like, I was really
going through it.

But I'm just gonna
always be real.

And if it puts a target
on my back,

at least I can go out
knowing I was true to myself.

Sophie, what's it like

when you go back to camp
after a blindside like that,

where Sage is obviously
emotional?

It's still the game,
but it's also a person.

Yeah, I really,

really felt badly
for my role in that blindside.

And I know that
I hurt her, personally.

But we are at this phase
in the game where

it's for a million dollars.

You hope that nobody
takes anything personally.

But we're human.

Sometimes feelings get hurt.

Kristina, let's talk
about the journey.

- How did that go?
-Yeah, Uncle J.

The boat comes up,

and it says it's gonna
be a strenuous journey.

And so, Steven, my guy,

decides that
he's gonna go for it.

And he comes back
and he looks a hot mess.

And he tells us what happened.

Jeff,

that was probably
the hardest thing

that I've ever done
in my entire life.

It was like rock climbing
more than it was running.

I slipped, I fell.

- Wow.
- And I managed

to make it back just in time

to get the advantage,
and that's what happened.

So, Savannah, if Steven
is telling the truth,

he's saying,
"I got an advantage."

Did he talk more about that?

Yeah, he did, and actually,
he has an advantage.

But he's not sure who he can
actually tell about it.

Because all of us up here
have lied to him at some point.

So, Rizo, what layer

does that add to the game?

Because the way
Savannah described it,

nobody knows who can trust who.

Yeah, you know, Jeff,

obviously,
I have an immunity idol.

And with Steven
being outwardly open

about him having an advantage,

there's a lot of things
that can come to play

in this Tribal Council.

So I think
the consensus here is,

"As long as I can
get a group of four"--

'cause the majority
for this vote is just four--

"we can make it another
Tribal Council in this game."

Soph, how much talk

is there about
challenge domination?

Because Steven has won twice,

Sophie's won twice,

Savannah has won twice.
That's it.

Three people have won
individual immunity challenges.

Yeah, I mean it's a huge topic
of conversation.

I feel like right now,
we're asking ourselves

at this moment, like,
can we sit next to this person

and actually beat this person?

And you see that necklace
around your neck multiple times.

It's, like,
alarms ringing in your head.

Like, "Dude, I can't sit next
to this person.

I can't beat them.
What the hell?"

So, yeah, for sure.

It's a huge element in this game

that I'm thinking about, and I'm
sure everybody here is as well.

So Sophie,

Rizo says,
"All you need is four."

Are you a little concerned,

"Well, I'm one
of those challenge threats.

"I do not have the necklace.

Am I somebody they're gonna
look at and try to take me out?"

It is terrifying to be up here

without the necklace
when you are a challenge threat.

Some of these people sitting up
here might be thinking like,

"If I don't get her out today,
is that our last chance?"

And so, I think more and more,

people are like, "We got
to watch out for those three,

and we need
to kick 'em to the curb."

Savannah, you, too,
challenge threat.

You've won it two times. You
don't have it tonight, either.

Yeah, I already know that's
what's being talked about today.

So honestly, for me,
when I go in that voting booth,

this is all about revenge.
You know what I mean?

This is revenge
for the people who are

putting my name out there and
who have my name in their mouth.

Kristina, was it the word

"revenge" that got you?

You know, there is no secret

who I'm voting for.

There's no secret
who I've been voting for.

- And so, I mean...
- Tell me.

Savannah knows
how I feel about her.

It's a love...

It is a love.

- Not hate.
- And hate.

- It's-it's a...
- Not... not hate.

It's a strong dislike.

- Wow.
-I didn't say that,
either, but, you know,

it's all right.
You can fire shots.

- I can take it.
- Oh, that's crazy.

I'm curious,
where does it stem from?

"Strong dislike" is...

It's a big, big choice.

- Tell the class.
- We just have

- personality differences,
Uncle J. We just...
-Yeah.

And we started off
on two different sides,

and, you know,
we just have never

voted together, and you just...

Let me say this.

We've always been on
the opposite side of the vote.

And I think it's really hard
to come back from that,

- generally speaking.
- Yeah.

So, maybe in a different game
of Survivor

- if we had started off
on the same tribe.
- Maybe. Maybe.

- We could have been a great duo.
- Yes.

Hmm. Don't... I don't...

I don't know.

Don't know.

This might just be
a chemistry thing, you know?

- Maybe.
-Just...
- Yeah, we just...

Yeah.

Sage, Savannah's been
pretty open about saying,

"Look, I'll be honest.
My vote is about revenge."

You were burned last Tribal.

Does revenge strike a chord
with you,

just in terms
of understanding that motive?

Listen, back home,
if someone's petty to me,

I'm going to be petty back.

But if you're looking
at game and emotional,

emotional--
the easy vote is revenge.

Game-- that might not
be the same case.

But if someone's
game decision also, like,

gives them a little bit
of revenge, too, like,

I'm not hating on it.
Like, makes sense.

I would just like

to respond to that
and say sometimes

in a game like Survivor,
you do have to get revenge.

Because when revenge
threatens your game

and threatens to take you out
of this game, it's necessary.

But I know that
there's other people

who also might have
a different agenda, but

they could have
the same name in mind that I do.

Rizo, the way Savannah

just said it is really wise.

"We don't have to agree
on the reason why.

- Just the person."
-Jeff,

the way I view Survivor,
it's a game of opportunity.

You have to strike
when the iron's hot.

Every vote
from this point on is crucial,

because you come out
to Survivor,

you leave your family,
you starve for 26 days

to win a million dollars.

We're all psychos, Jeff.
Like, we applied

because we have faith
in ourselves

that we can be a millionaire.

And for one of us,
that dream dies tonight.

But for six of us, that dream
lives on after this vote.

So Rizo put it so beautifully,

which is there are only
seven of you.

One of you is going to win
a million dollars

- in a few days.
-Yeah.

Like, that is crazy to me.
Like, I never thought

that I'd be this close
to a million dollars in my life.

And so, they're right in that
this isn't just an anybody vote.

It's a very calculated decision
that's being made tonight.

And hopefully, it helps us
get that much closer

to the end.

All right.

With that, it is

time to vote.
Rizo, you're up.

This beach is not big enough

for two hot,
31-year-old challenge beasts.

This "emotional revenge"

is also amazing strategy.

Because you've been
throwing my name out there,

you're saying that
you're gonna flip-flop on me,

you being here

is not good for my game.

See ya.

I'll go tally the votes.

If anybody has
an advantage or an idol

and you want to play it,
now would be the time to do so.

All right, I'll read the votes.

First vote:

Savannah.

Sophie. One vote Savannah,

one vote Sophie.

Sophie.

Two votes Sophie,
one vote Savannah.

Sophie.

That's three votes Sophie,
one vote Savannah.

Twelfth person voted out

and the fifth member
of our jury: Sophie.

That's four, that's enough.

Need to bring me your torch.

Oh, my God.

You guys got me good!

And, no, none of you
can have my jacket.

Oh, my God!

Sorry, Sophie.

Damn.

There we go.

Sophie, the tribe has spoken.

Good game, Soph.

Good game, Sophie. See ya.

Time for you to go.

Grab your torches,
head back to camp.

Good night.

Yeah.

I was just
unanimously blindsided.

Honestly, I'm taking it
as a little bit of a compliment

that this means that I was a
big threat to everybody's game.

But I guess
I am now the other Sophie,

because I'm the first Sophie

voted out, which stings.

Oh, my God.
