Thirty -six days ago, 16 Americans began the adventure of a lifetime in exotic

Thailand.

They journeyed to Taratau Island, a former prison camp and one -time haven

pirates. You're going to choose your own tribes right now. In keeping with the

Thai tradition of honoring the elders, the two oldest castaways, Jake and Jan,

were allowed to pick their own tribes.

I was surprised by Jan's picks. It seems like most of the tribe members were

older members, if you will.

From the beginning, it looked as if the older Chewygon tribe would be the

underdog.

But Sookjai had trouble bonding.

And they let their youthful enthusiasm

get the better of them.

Chewygon proved they could be strong competitors.

But they also had their own bumps in the road. For some crazy reason, you know,

in that position, I started grinding Gandhi out. To me, I got the feeling

you was trying to get with me. No, no. I'm not even attracted to you.

The Castaways have experienced the hardships of island life.

He probably pushed off on a stingray and got a stinger in his foot.

Damn it!

It was a nightmare. At one point, I was about ready. If I had a pistol in my

pocket, I would have pulled it out. Shot her first, shot me second.

And they have experienced the joys of an exotic land.

It was just wonderful to be able to see some of Thai culture.

It is absolutely gorgeous. You've got these limestone cliffs and mountains and

hills and caves.

There's no way to describe the beauty that's here.

They have clashed.

It's stupid.

And they have overcome their differences. I tell you what, you're a

like you.

Amen, bro.

But no matter how strong their bond, tribal council always loomed.

In the first 18 days, three members from Sukjai and three members from Chewygon

were voted off the island.

On day 19, the two tribes moved onto one beach, and the castaways believed they

had merged.

One, two, three. But that wasn't the case.

You said merge.

Yes. I certainly didn't say anything to give you that impression, did I?

The two tribes never merged.

The false merge sent strategies reeling and put desperation right out in the

open. This is not a tribe unified.

Penny, you're manipulative. I've had plenty of opportunity to vote Sheehan

if I wanted to.

Suk Jai lost another member, and the tribe was at a numbers disadvantage.

Living on the same beach as two separate tribes was a trying experience for

everyone. The cave smells of urine.

Chewy gone has been pissing in the front of the cave.

Cashew butterscotch squares.

Ooh, what are those?

My God.

You know, I need to go somewhere else when she starts that recipe stuff, which

is nonstop, 24 -7.

Even the monkeys were testing the castaway's patience.

All the bananas that were safe for tonight are gone. Oh, no.

Sook -Jai continued their downward spiral.

Chewy -Gon wins immunity.

And lost another member.

When the merge finally materialized on day 26, the remaining Sook -Jais, one by

one, had their torches snuffed.

Last week, the time came for the former Chewy -Gon tribe to turn on each other.

Ted and Helen question Clay's contribution to camp life. I think the

he's been around this long is because he's a comical character. He keeps us

laughing, but it's just time for him to be voted off.

After reward challenge, Ted won a new car. Ted wins reward.

Yeah, baby. And chose to take Helen with him for a Thai dinner and massage.

Welcome.

Ted downed the wine.

And tried to solidify the plan to vote Clay out.

Clay. Yeah.

Out of here. You've got to be quiet about that. You know what I'm saying?

yeah.

I forgot where I was.

Back at camp, the rest of the tribe was growing nervous about Ted and Helen's

friendship. We said earlier about all the whispering.

Who was in the whisper?

Teddy and Helen.

And Rotten in the dark.

Hmm.

But when Helen returned, she shared Ted's plan with Brian.

I sat and listened to everything he said, and I yeah, yeah, yeah'd him to

Yeah, I know, I know. Agreed, agreed, agreed.

Let Ted leave when he feels he can leave.

I'm definitely playing two sides of the fence. Everybody out here is playing

both sides of the fence. Just hope you don't get caught.

Strategies and alliances were in question when Brian won the immunity

Brian wins immunity!

Good job, Brian. So Ted asked Brian straight up if he was the next to go.

At tribal council, Ted felt the sting of betrayal when he was unanimously voted

out and sent off to join the jury.

Ted, the tribe has spoken.

Now, only four remain.

Tonight, they will compete in their final immunity challenges.

Two will move on to face the jury. One will outlast all the rest and become the

sole survivor.

He didn't have too much to say on the way out, did he?

He wouldn't even come around and look at us when we were leaving.

There's only four torches.

The last tribal council was a little bit harder because Ted was the first of the

last two gone five.

It was the beginning of the realization that each one of us have to go, except

for one.

Let there be light.

We knew that. When we got to this point, we were getting ready to tell you. It

was a total shock to tell you. The whole time we'd been telling him, we're

kicking Jan off, we're kicking Jan off.

There ain't no telling what went through his mind when he saw his name pop up

three times.

At this level in the game,

It becomes cutthroat. It becomes every man for himself.

So the next couple days I expect to be extremely stressful.

Final four. Sounds like a basketball tournament. I know. That's all I'm

about.

Isn't that funny?

came clay good oh look it's everybody's name oh there we

go lotus shaped boat used in different thai celebrations and a way of

remembering those with whom you have shared its gifts you have 12 floats to

decorate in honor of the 12 fallen survivors all deserve to be memorialized

each croissant the care and respect they deserve You will be instructed as to

when and where you will offer up the gifts to the sea.

Let's take them all back. Okay.

This morning we got an early tree mail. It was a bunch of flyers, and we're

supposed to fix up a float for each tribe member that's been kicked off the

island. And there's some kind of tradition in Thailand about setting

out to see, you know, a message out of love and hope and good luck in the

future. I think that's what it's all about.

We've got a job to do, people.

This is an example? Right.

Wait a minute. I got some tweezers or something in here. I need thumbnail

clippers fast.

Oh, man.

I'm dying for that.

We'll do them in order.

I'm going to go down the assembly line.

That looks so good.

That looks really nice. I looked at each individual and tried to put them as I

saw them. We just tried to...

Fit the personalities into each little float that we're going to send out to

later on.

Aaron was going to get a lotus tattooed on her foot.

Why don't we give her this lotus?

Okay. With 16 different personalities, you're going to have people that

generally don't really like each other, but you learn to get along.

So even if you had someone's reach that you weren't particularly crazy about,

you still made it good.

I'm going to spend some time on Garnier's, huh, Si? I'm going to dick

with a penis.

I'm being nice. Nobody else will do it.

When I was making those wreaths, all they thought about was, you've come a

way, baby.

You've had to make some tough decisions.

But I would so much rather be in my position than looking at one of those

wreaths seeing my name on there.

This is a business trip, strictly.

My attire is just beard.

bathing suits out here, but I'm still in business mode.

You've got to get to me and see today. Okay. The best thing is not to talk

it.

Okay, good.

That's true.

No, it stands for blood supply.

No. No.

Okay. It won't happen with me. I mean, this is outside. That's right.

We got tree mail, guys.

Oh, great.

That's off your sale.

The one brain sale you have left. Oh, no.

Sell, not fail. Oh. All right.

Only fools repeat mistakes, and hindsight's 20 -20.

So pass in on what you've learned and get closer to the money.

Okay.

That's obvious. Yeah, yeah. What it is. What?

What we learned here. Oh, okay, yeah.

Hello,

guys. Hello, Jack.

Hi.

Okay, at this point in the game, with only three days left and only four

left, The only way to control your fate in this game is with immunity.

So let's get to today's immunity challenge. It is appropriately enough

Second Chance, a chance to revisit certain aspects of challenges you have

tackled in the past.

On my go, you will dig up a wicker ball. Take that wicker ball with you over the

bamboo balancing beam. If you fall, you've got to start over.

When you've succeeded, take your wicker ball through the fishnet tubing. When

you're finished with that part of the course, you're done with the wicker

you'll put it on your torch. You'll begin work on the slide pipe.

Once you release the knife, use the knife to cut the rope. The rope will

a bag of materials.

Take those materials with you into the jail cell.

Use the materials to build the pole, retrieve the key, unlock the door.

It's been a sprint to the final buffet table where we have a surprise food item

from our Thai menu.

First person to finish the course and show me an empty mouth, meaning you have

consumed the food item entirely, wins immunity, is guaranteed a spot in the

final three. Stakes have never been bigger than this challenge.

Make sense?

Before we begin, Brian, I need that immunity.

Immunity, back up for grabs. Let's go.

Here we go, guys. Immunity at stake and a guaranteed spot in the final three.

Survivors ready? Yep.

Go!

Clay's the first one out with his wicker ball.

Heading for the balance beam.

Back to the start, Clay. Jan has her ball. Starting on the bamboo balance

Two steps in.

Keep digging, guys.

China? Plays halfway.

Ellen has her ball.

Plays off the balance beam.

Plays through the fishnet tubing.

Not a big lead, guys. Keep working it.

Ryan's got his ball.

Everybody's on the bamboo.

Plays just a little bit ahead.

Keep moving, guys. Still very much in this.

Lions off the bamboo and through the fish net.

Oh! Whoa!

Guys on the balance beam, look where you are going.

Brian making his way through the fish tubing.

Brian creeping up on you, Clay.

Way to keep fighting.

Ryan has his knife out, screwing up his puzzle so Clay can't look over and copy.

Ryan's moving into the jail cell.

Ryan's starting work on his pole.

That -a -way, Helen.

You're there. You're halfway there.

It's a sprint to the bottom now.

Go, Jan.

Ryan's got his key.

That -a -way, Helen.

Right back in it.

Ryan's out of the jail cell.

Got to eat it all?

Got to eat it all, brother.

Don't mess around.

Put that thing down and start chewing.

Keep it down.

Let me see that whole mouth.

Brian wins immunity.

You've come a long way.

One of you will go no further.

Somebody's going home after tribal council.

Even as I was doing it, I could feel myself getting so angry, I was... I hate

lose. I hate to lose.

And I hate to look like a fool doing it, and I did both today.

That damn balance thing, I just felt like I looked like an idiot.

Ever since the immunity challenge was over, the minute I knew I didn't have

I was like, okay, now what?

It looks like it's time for Helen to go.

Why? Helen now at this time is, there was some sort of relationship with her

Ted. It just happened the other day.

There was some writing on the ground.

So I have a little distrust in Helen.

I know they were scheming against us. I mean, Jan was supposedly sleeping. They

were doing stuff in the dirt here. Oh, I saw. When I rang the door, they started

playing like they were playing tic -tac -toe.

Some sort of order they were going. I know that Helen's going to go down

fighting tomorrow no matter what. Yeah.

She's a threat. She's making me nervous now with everything the same, and I'm

not still in the picture.

I'm just kidding. She's making me nervous.

Helen's got to go now simply because she's a threat to me.

Jan, you know where they're both going, correct?

No.

No.

This is strictly strategy. Just think about it.

It's not your turn.

Jan, she's my ace in the hole, and I will use her tonight.

As long as everything goes as planned, she'll come into play. Now, whether

everything does go as planned, that's one thing I can't control.

You can't get emotional over this decision. It's strictly a strategic

But if you're not comfortable with it, then I understand also.

But I would just like you to think about it. I mean, that's the way we would...

Kind of like to go, I mentioned it also to Clay.

You understand, it'll be helping your pocketbook too.

And it's you or her.

I just, you know, I don't want y 'all to be saying, we're putting Jan out. I'm

not playing the game. I'm going to take her out in about an hour and talk to

her. You have to just understand that you're now going to be three, which is

quite a feat.

But the time has come to make a decision.

It's Helen's time.

Are you okay with that?

I just want to think about it and see, and, you know, I'm just going to ponder

what's going on.

Is that a deal, Jan?

Let me just take a nap and rest on it, guys. Y 'all think about it, and I'd

appreciate you. You got some rest. No, thank you, Jan. Oh, my one cell is being

very overworked.

That's all it is.

Oh, God, I'm going to kill myself.

I have been approached for a new game plan, and I am

toying with the suggestion.

Helen is a friend of mine.

She has cooked the meals she sings at night to help calm us down, so I feel

I'm in a quandary. That makes me anxious.

You can't change her mind.

I think she'll be okay. She needs to relax.

I will.

Hope it works.

The only other issue is what I'm going to tell Helen, if I'm going to.

It's going to pop up her name three times, and she'll get the message for

then.

Weeks ago, Brian and Clay came to me and said, how about us three for the top?

The vote that was agreed upon was to start with Ted, then Jan, then when we

to us three, then we'll reevaluate. Well, I know darn well Clay sees himself

those first two chairs.

So it worries me that they may decide that Jan is an easier person to keep

along. So I checked last night to make sure it was still a Ted vote. Yes.

Okay. Checked today with both of them. It's still a Jan vote.

Do you think it's fair to tell Jan?

I don't think so. That just makes her upset all day.

Since we got here, she went back down in the cage.

No, not fair.

Brian and Clay have had it with Jan. They're frustrated with her. I mean,

the story they're giving me, and that it's a definite she's out tonight.

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

Aaron, Ken, Penny, Jake, and our newest jury member, Ted, voted out at the last

tribal council.

Just before we voted at the last tribal council, I asked at the time, the five

of you, if anybody felt vulnerable.

Everybody shook their head, and I said, so that must mean everybody feels safe,

which means somebody is clearly being lied to.

And from where I sit, they were.

You voted out Ted, and I don't think he saw it coming.

So now we have a jury made up of four Suk Chai members and one of your own

Chewygon members.

For all intents and purposes, you betrayed.

Clay, smart way to play this game, knowing your fate is in their hands?

I wouldn't call it betrayed.

I mean, everybody has to be removed from the game to get down to the final two.

That's the way this game is played.

Lying is part of the game. This is a game of people playing people.

Who do you trust by looking them in the eye?

I'm sure I've said some things where I wanted people to take them another way.

It kept playing the game.

So, Jan, you basically looked another tribe member in the eye and lied to

They're now on the other side.

Well, I didn't lie to them. I just voted to keep myself in the game. So maybe

I'm making an assumption.

So then was it a coincidence that... Everybody voted for Ted, except Ted?

I don't know. I don't think so. But I did not say one thing to Ted about going

to vote against him. But he did not ask me either.

Brian, have you lied in this game?

No, I've not lied. I've changed my mind a few times.

There's been certain situations where things could have been put out in the

open. Friendships could have remained blossoming.

But some people have chosen to take other routes and have decided to

deceive.

So you think you've been lied to?

Yes, I've been deceived, and that's expected to happen.

It's just you don't think it's going to happen to you.

Helen, think you've been lied to?

Oh, I know I've been lied to.

Clay, think you've been lied to?

No, for a fact I've been lied to.

And I just dealt him a card right back.

So how is there any loyalty at all in this game at this point?

There's not.

The only safe move in this game, if you've got that necklace on, that's it.

We're three vulnerable right now.

He's safe.

We're not.

So clearly, Helen, at this point, how can you trust any of these people when

walk up there to vote?

You can't.

Flat out, you can't. That's getting down to the wire, and you tell someone,

honestly, this is who I'm voting for tonight, and then all of a sudden, maybe

right before the vote, you get a signal from your block, uh -uh, that's not the

way we're going, we're going this way, and then you go, oh, great, this person

now says you lied.

And to them, that's the way it is.

Let me ask you the same question I asked Jan earlier.

Was it coincidence that Ted ended up with all the votes?

Or was there one of these blocks?

Was it a block?

Clay, knowing you're already a little in trouble with four Suk Chai members,

maybe we should tell Ted he's still going and maybe we get a little loyalty

him in the end.

I looked at it this way. I wouldn't want to know. And I need to get rid of the

biggest people that I feel most threatened by. We're not talking $20.

We're talking a million dollars. And you're not judged on your line or your

performance on this game as you are in life.

This is a game, and we're here to play the best we can and win.

It is time to vote. Brian.

Cause and effect.

You caused this effect.

You got busted talking on both sides of the fence.

You're a hell of a cook, and I'll miss you.

But I will kiss the cook later in life.

Goodbye.

I'm going to tally the votes.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person will be asked to

leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the votes.

First vote.

Helen.

Helen.

That's two votes, Helen.

Jen.

The 13th member voted out of the tribe.

Helen.

You can bring me the torch.

Ellen, the tribe has spoken.

It's time for you to go.

You've lasted 37 very tough days.

You've made it to the final three, and tomorrow will be one of the most

memorable days yet.

So head back to camp, get some sleep.

Well, that was a shock, especially since I asked Brian directly if I should

plan on coming back tonight, and I was given an emphatic yes.

So I guess of the three knives in my back right now, that's the one that

the most.

So the three of you that are left, break a leg, and I mean it.

A very memorable and emotional day.

Thank you, guys.

You're welcome. Thank you. When we came back as the final three,

It was one of those good, sad things for me.

Thank you.

I felt a little empty without Helen because I thought she had worked hard,

thought she still deserved one of the places.

I didn't think Helen would lose it, but she actually lost it the last couple of

days. She did. I didn't either.

I mean, everything was fine up until recently, and all of a sudden she got

antsy and nervous and sketchy.

When Helen saw her name pop up for the third time, it felt like a truck hit her

right in the stomach.

Whammo, we slapped you right in front of your council members, and you know

what? You still got to vote for one of us, and all three of us voted for you,

who are you going to blame?

Watch your toes. Watch your feet.

We got back from tribal council, then all of a sudden we had tree mounds.

Okay, I'm going to go in here.

Oh, my gosh. That was quick.

What is it? Look.

Oh, no. That's awful.

We went down there, and there was a Helen thing for us to make to float down

river. I felt a little bit bad. I just thought it was real soon to be feeling

like you buried someone.

Okay, before you sleep, take one last breath on in memory of the person you've

just said address.

Okay. I'm going to tie a spoon.

One of the spoons that we cook with around her leg.

And I wanted to make sure that we did a good one, you know. So we put a spoon on

it because of her cooking and everything.

Here we go.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

I wanted to make sure she had a proper burial. I called her my Aunt Helen, but

almost felt closer to her, like somewhat of a sister. But I'm wondering now if

she's the sister that went bad.

I swear,

look at the red lines going straight here to us.

That is too cool.

Me,

Brian, and Jim, we were sitting there talking, and I was playing like I

drinking a cup of coffee. I said, oh, by the way, I got some donuts over here.

So I passed out the donuts, and we were just eating donuts and drinking coffee

like we was really getting our belly full.

We've got three pancakes, two eggs, one chip of bacon, and a small glass of

orange juice. Go ahead and send me my breakfast. I want the pancakes and the

bacon and the sausage.

There's a canoe.

What? There's a boat.

Who is that?

There's a canoe out there.

All of a sudden we see this boat pull up.

Jeff. Jeff's standing up in that little boat. It had three umbrellas on it.

Hey, guys.

Nice to be welcome. I come bearing the items you will need for your final rite

of passage.

This boat will carry you on your journey.

This map will lead the way. You will leave your beach, paddling north, out

around the island to the Mangrove River.

When you reach the river, you'll begin to release your loyal Gratongs.

The Gratongs are tribute to the 13 other survivors who have been a part of this

adventure.

but are no longer in the game.

This is a part of the tradition here in Thailand.

It is where you offer your respect. So take a moment and reflect over each

person. As you continue down the river, you'll reach a cave. I'll be waiting for

you at your final immunity challenge.

Great. Okay, when do we need to leave? Pretty quick?

You go now.

All right.

You got ready?

Yeah. You'll head out north.

You'll ride right here. You'll know it. Big change in water.

Okay.

Come on in place your torches on the stand to the left.

It is hot in here. It's about 105 degrees Welcome to

the belly of the whale Your final immunity challenge.

Congratulations on making it this far.

Thank you. Thank you. You guys have overcome tremendous odds, battled

crossing threshold after threshold, getting closer and closer to your

The treasure.

The money.

And the title of sole survivor.

It's fitting that this final ordeal plays out here in the darkest part of a

that was once the home to the pirates.

Who ruled this island?

You know, it's so easy in this game of Survivor to let the money slip through

your fingers.

Lose a challenge. Make a bad political move at camp.

Trusting when you shouldn't.

Thirteen of your fellow Survivors have done just that.

The three of you are still holding on. The question is, for how much longer?

Today's challenge is simple.

Don't let the money slip through your fingers.

There are 18 coins in front of you, six for each of you, three for your left

hand, three for your right.

You'll put the coins between your fingers and keep them there. You will

into a traditional Thai stance called the Khan, and you will stand in this

position with the coins between your fingers for the duration of the

The frames behind you will force you to stay in place.

It will be uncomfortable. It will grow to be painful, especially for your legs.

You will want to quit.

It's a test of your willpower. And the longer you last, the more difficult it

becomes to achieve your goal.

Slowly, those coins will begin to fall through your fingers.

When all six of your coins have fallen through your fingers into the walk

you're out of the game.

Last person left standing wins immunity, guaranteed a spot in the final two, and

with that immunity, gets to decide who comes with them to that final vote.

Stakes have never been bigger.

Concentration needs to be keen. Block out everything else.

I'm going to ask you now to come forward one at a time and grab six coins. Jan,

you first.

Keep them in your palm.

Brian.

Clay.

Now I'm going to ask you guys to take off your shoes.

I'm going to ask you to take your coins and put them between your fingers.

Three on each hand.

Center them up.

I want you to step up onto your platform. Put your head, your hands, and

feet in the brackets, palms facing up.

Guys, for the last time, immunity.

Back up for grabs.

Challenge is on.

There'll be some initial discomfort.

It'll turn into pain, but if you use your mind right, you'll block it out.

Get into a good zone, you'll be all right.

Jam, what do you reckon is the first thing you're going to do when you get

First thing I get away from here, I'm having four beers, two in each hand, and

big fat pizza.

That's exactly what I'm going to do, and try and find some sucker with a cigar.

Con it off of them.

And then laugh.

Brian, what are you thinking right now?

I'm just relaxing. All right. Thank you.

Clay, what are you going to do when you get out of here? What's the first action

you're going to take when you get home? Get something fatty and hug the hell out

of my wife.

Don't have a pie waiting in the car for me.

You guys are doing great.

This is the point where it starts to get a little painful. Work through it.

Stay focused on your own game, guys.

It is designed to hurt.

It's designed to test your willpower.

You're at the hardest part right now.

You are in the darkest part of this challenge.

Guys, I've come way too far to give in now.

Remember, guys, it's also important to stay in your game mentally in relation

the other players.

The image you put forth affects them, gives them power, or takes it away.

I can't. I can't.

I'm sorry. I can't.

I can't. That was me.

Sit down, guys. Have a

seat. Stretch it out. Okay.

Everyone gone? Yeah.

Cheers.

Good job, guys.

Way to go, Jan. You give it all you got.

Way to go.

The third time in a row.

Take it.

Feel good?

Yeah.

All right, guys, here's where we're at. For the third time, Brian has immunity

and a very big decision to make, which one of you two to take with him to the

final vote.

That's what you have to think about today.

I will see the three of you tonight at Tribal Council.

Take your torches.

Make your way back to camp.

What a morning.

You guys, are your legs still like rubber?

Still. No, they hurt.

Today, walking into the last challenge, I knew I had to beat Brian in clay, but

my legs were just quivering like that, and I had sweat coming down, and I just

couldn't take myself to that next level.

Wow. What a dramatic challenge.

That's what I felt like.

That's just what I felt like. That's what my whole body was feeling, my

lightning going through it.

There was a major burn going on all throughout the legs, and I went to the

and lowered back and the neck.

But I made it through and took that immunity out for the third time in a

This is our final travel council before there are two that's going to have to

sit before the jury. I feel very confident. Brian's going to go in and

on the jury as the seventh member, and I'm going to sit up there as one, too,

and let the jury vote on us and see who gets the million.

I'm thinking about the whole picture.

Simple as that. I know it's a $900 ,000 mistake I could be making.

But there's a lot here at stake.

Putting me up against a 50 -throw lady that's done not much, yet she hasn't

anything to step on anybody's feet.

Clay's played the game very similar to me.

I'm not sure of how the boats are going to go. I really don't know.

It's your little rod.

The only reason I could think Brian taking Jen to the final two would have

an easier win.

He may walk up there and just blow me right out of the water. I mean, me and

have blown two out of the water in the last two tribal councils that just

absolutely thought no way that they were fixing to leave, and we sent them home.

And he may be doing it to me, but all I can see is I don't believe it.

Now bring in the members of our jury.

Erin, Ken, Penny, Jake, our newest member, Helen, and Big Jed.

So let's talk about today.

I have to imagine it was a pretty emotional day for you guys.

Jan? Yes, it was very emotional.

It had started really the night before. We had to make the floats for everyone

and take them and let them go and remember.

who we'd met, and it was very bittersweet.

Any one memory in particular stand out?

Of the floats?

Yes, the one with most was Helen, because we put spoons on the top of it

because she cooked.

It was very emotional for me.

And when I let her go, I said, you know, you're not a survivor friend, you're a

friend for life.

Clay, how was it for you today?

Really, I turned each one of them loose, and every one of them meant something.

You know, here we are from all across the United States, and we're all

Americans, but yet we live so different. We had a hell of a time, you know,

every one of us.

It was neat.

Well, Brian, for the third tribal council in a row, you have immunity.

Really big vote tonight, because not only are you voting somebody out, you're

also keeping somebody.

Strategically, it's huge.

How many times today have you thought about this in terms of a $900 ,000

decision? Back and forth. It's like a tennis match in my head. Bing, pong,

tennis.

This is where you've got to control those emotions, and you've got to look

tactical as well as business decisions. What's going to make sense?

What's fair?

So that's what I've been kind of teeter -tottering with, as I like to say.

Okay, here's how the voting will work tonight.

Jan, because you cannot vote for Brian and you cannot vote for yourself, you

only vote for Clay. Clay, you can only vote for Jan.

Your two votes cancel each other out. No sense in you voting.

Therefore, the only person that will vote tonight will be Brian.

You'll cast one vote, and in doing so, you will vote out the 14th member.

And more importantly, you will decide who is going with you to the final

council.

Having said that, it is time to vote. Brian.

They've come a long way.

A long, long way.

Congratulations.

It's been my pleasure.

I will go tally the boat.

Once the vote has been read, the decision is final. The person voted out

asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the vote.

The 14th person voted out of the tribe.

Dan, will you bring me a torch?

Jan, the tribe has spoken.

I love you all. I love you, Jan.

Good luck.

There's nothing left to be said. You two have gone as far as you can go in this

game.

You have one day left. I will see you at the final tribal council.

Good night.

My experience on Survivor has just been totally surreal. I didn't know I could

ever be here 38 days in a bat cave with rats and snakes.

If there's one thing I've learned, it's don't listen to the word. You can't do

something. Don't.

Quit. I'm a teacher. I don't want any of my students to ever quit anything.

I fought all day long.

What would I do if I was in Brian's shoes?

A million dollars is a lot of money. They can make a man change his mind, but

stayed true, and when he turned it over, it said Jan, and I was a happy man.

Now, we've got the guy that's mid -30s, the guy that's mid -40s, just kicked all

them young people's ass, didn't we, though?

Thank you again, sir.

Congratulations, sir.

Congratulations, too. We started with the preacher.

Oh, yeah, that's right. We did, didn't we?

We got a boat that's the heaviest boat I've ever saw in my life.

And it has been a burden in our butt ever since we got here.

The burning of the boat was like a cleansing of the soul.

It's a pain in the ass.

I wanted to get rid of any sort of bad energy.

Bye boat. No more water. No more problems.

We're finished.

We're finished with the water runs. We're finished paddling places.

We're finished gathering clams and crabs. It was nice to see it go.

Wow, it's open.

It's actually open.

Look at that sun kind of peeking its ass up over the top of that thing. Look at

that thing, wow.

Look at that big old sun.

Thirty -nine, baby.

Last day.

Oh, yeah.

Wow.

What a beautiful sight.

The last coconut.

You know what? There's dirt all over here.

Day 39 is the most memorable time of my life. I would not change anything I've

done, any experience I've had in the last 39 days.

My gosh.

We're literally down to hours now. This isn't days. This isn't weeks. We are

down to hours.

It's okay.

Excellent job, sir.

Thank you.

Good job to you, too.

Appreciate that.

If you look at the whole game, each one of us had to do something for the other

one to survive.

So somewhere in there, all 16 people ended up having to help the other one

on this island.

We suffered a hell of a lot, but we were looking back on it.

Wow, what a memorable event.

That's it.

We're out of here. We are out of here.

We both had fun. We both brought meaning into this.

We're now sitting in the winner's circle. You can't get any higher in this

And it's now up to a jury to decide our fate.

This is strictly a game to me.

It's about building relationships and cutting your losses to move on to the

level, to get to a certain position.

But the relationships that you build weren't necessarily real.

It's a sad fact of reality that this game is a little brutal.

This game is dangerous.

You'll have strong skin.

You're going to be done quick.

Just over the last couple of days, things have gotten pretty touch and go,

there might have been some opinions formed in how cutthroat I am.

It's a little scary to be sitting up there with the spotlight on you,

interrogated.

Everybody respects Brian. He's a class act. But Ted and Helen felt like they

a pretty solid base with old Brian.

And they may feel more betrayed by him than me.

I'm sure all 16 of us come out there definitely not wanting to be the first

kicked off. Well, somebody had to be the first one kicked off, and somebody's

got to win the million. It's just all the stuff in between these two people

is the problem.

I wish all of us here could get a million dollars.

but we can't it ends up with one person one lone survivor and i still got one

more to beat

We'll now bring in our full jury of seven members.

Aaron, Ken, Penny, Jake, Helen, Ted,

and our newest member, Jan.

Welcome to your final tribal council.

Let me start by saying congratulations.

Thank you. It's a little bit different tonight. In the past... The power of the

vote resided on this side of the flame.

Tonight, that shifts to the other side of the fire, to our jury. Seven people

that either directly or indirectly you had a hand in voting out of this game

have your fate entirely in their hands. Tonight, they'll be voting for a sole

survivor. We'll begin with opening statements by the two of you. Why you

to win this game.

The jury will then get a chance to address each of you individually and ask

a question.

They're looking for information to help them make a big decision.

And then we vote.

Let's start with our opening statements.

Clay.

Wow. What do I say besides I'm a lucky guy. I'm sitting here. I'm not

sitting over there. The hard part of this game is we're people. We're not

of a puzzle.

And somewhere in there, I had to tell some untruths and put y 'all over there.

And I can promise you this, if y 'all could replace.

My feet here. Y 'all would do exactly like I did.

Everybody came to play the hardest they can, and I did too. And I'm sitting over

here. This is a hard thing to say. Yes, I want the million.

A million dollars at age 46 would mean definitely a life -changing deal.

Everybody goes through bad luck, and unfortunately, I'm just coming out of

little bad luck and starting on my road up again.

And what a jump, what a boost that would give me.

It's up to y 'all, and I know it's a super hard decision because regardless

what y 'all make, y 'all had to live with both of us for a while.

Good luck.

Brian.

Well, first of all, I just want to say it's been a pleasure knowing each and

every one of you through these days that we've had to know each other.

We've all had positive experiences. We've all had some bad experiences, and

think that... There's been some form of leadership through example, leadership

through merits.

There's been no complaints on my part.

There's been no stories fabricated for sympathy.

There's been just a positive outlook, I think, every day on a daily basis.

But you know my focus. My focus was making sure everything was okay, making

we all had food in our bellies, making sure we were all warm at night.

Along the way, you develop some friends, but this is a game, and there are

certain people that had to go before others, and that's what sucked.

But I dealt with it the best way I could, sometimes by not saying anything.

So vote from your hearts and look at the whole time that we've either known each

other and feel good about it. That's all I'm asking for is you guys feel good

about whatever you're going to do, and I respect every one of you in your own

way. It's been a pleasure knowing you all.

I appreciate it. Thank you.

Okay, jury.

Had a chance to hear what Clay and Brian had to say. In a moment, you're going

to get a chance to ask them a question that will give you information you need

to decide who will be the sole survivor. I'll give you a moment to think about

that.

Okay, jury, had a chance to hear what Clay and Brian had to say. It's now your

chance to address them. This is your opportunity to ask a question from them

give you the information you need to make a very big decision.

Erin, we'll start with you.

Hi, guys. Hello.

I've sat and listened to every single tribal council.

Now, we've already heard why you think you deserve the million dollars.

Now, I want to know.

why each of you think the person sitting next to you does not deserve the

million dollars.

I think we'll start with Brian.

I think Clay does not deserve the million because over a period of, say,

days, he did not put forth the effort that he could have.

There's a lot more spunk in this little man than I think we've seen, and I think

he coasted through a few scenarios.

He was more of a thinker, whereas I was more of a doer.

Clay?

He thought he was the leader of the camp, and there was times that he

everybody should come to him, and they didn't always have to come talk to

You know, there's other tribe members they could go discuss things with

him getting offensive or trying to worry about what they're talking about. If he

has much power in camp, he wouldn't have to worry about that.

Okay. Satisfied?

Satisfied. Thanks, Aaron.

Ken.

How are you guys doing? Hey, guys.

Clay, you said that there's not a person over here that wouldn't do what you did

to change places. Well, you're wrong.

I wouldn't do it, okay? I was straightforward to everybody.

I never lied, and I kept my integrity.

Okay, that's what I go home with, because that's the only thing a man can

home with at the end of the night after everything's gone.

Okay.

Brian, when we first arrived at Chewy Gun, you told me that Ted had to go,

he'd never make it to the final two, and there's a reason he wouldn't make it to

the final two.

Why don't you tell the jury why Ted had to go?

I didn't never mention Ted had to go. Okay, let's rewind again.

Remember, I know the answer to this. You told me this. So just tell the jury

what you told me. Why did Ted have to go? That's all I want to know.

Ted had to go because he had a problem forming together with a group. So there

was a feeling of Ted kind of breaking off, doing his own thing. So that was

reason, I think, the lack of gelling with the group.

Simple as that. Ken, I just want to make sure I'm clear.

Brian told you something.

Well, Brian just told me two different things, which neither one of them are

what he told me when this was originally done here, when we were originally

talking about it. There's no big deal here.

I'm satisfied. I'm not going to push him anymore. Okay. Did you get the honesty?

No, I did not.

Okay. And you're satisfied?

I'm satisfied. I mean, that's between him and God.

Penny.

When we came into this merger, we obviously didn't have the numbers. We

down, you know, five to three. But knowing that I was just a number and I

eventually going to be voted off based on that, I still took the time to get to

know both of you. But did you really bother to get to know who I am? Okay.

For example, Brian, do you know where I grew up?

In Texas.

Do you know where in Texas?

I want to say...

Uh, Beaumont.

Somewhere Beaumont, Texas.

That would be Jim.

Do I have any siblings? And if I do, what are their names?

You've got an older brother or an older sister.

No, I'm the oldest.

You're the oldest, okay.

And I don't know their names.

Is there anything you want to add, Clark? Well, I know you are a huge Texas

Red Raider fan, and I'm real impressed that, Colleen, your future sister is

planning your wedding.

When you was in high school, you made a huge decision, and you were living with

your daddy and went to living with your mother. You didn't get to spend all your

childhood with your sister, and you really do regret that, but y 'all have

real good relationship going now. I don't know what else to tell you. That's

fine. I'm satisfied.

Thank you. Goodbye. Thanks, Ben. Thank you.

Jake.

Hi, guys. Hey.

You're kind of in the hot seat tonight, aren't you? Oh, I'm telling you.

I'm kind of glad in a way that I'm over on this side of this fire and not on

that side. I also want to tell you that I don't know how you did it, but, boy,

did you all do a number on me by taking a person who I had a strong alliance

with and getting her to vote against me, and that was Penny, which I thought was

just a really clever, manipulative move.

On that very night, Jeff asked, does anybody feel like they might get voted

And I said, yeah, I feel pretty vulnerable tonight. I'm just excited the

that Brian stated that the vote is going to be on performance because, let me

tell you, I do know that I perform as good as anybody out there and probably

better than most.

Now, we had just gotten back to camp, and Clay, you really blasted me about...

The fact that I'm next.

My question is this.

Why did you feel threatened for what I had said, which was only the same

repeated what Brian said?

The reason it upset me, because when you come to camp, within 15 minutes, you

started trying to make an alliance with me. Then you're trying to make an

alliance with Ted.

Then you come out, you're talking to Brian, trying to make another one with

You're just trying to play me with all of my own tribe members.

And you didn't think we weren't going to talk?

You were wrong.

All right.

Now, Brian, how did you feel at that point?

I was working hand -in -hand with you. You were out there clamming with me,

getting food.

No, at the time, I did not feel the same way, to answer your question.

Satisfied? Satisfied. Thanks, Jake.

Ted.

First to you, Brian.

Brian, you know, the way you played this game, you truly are a great, great car

salesman. You sold me your friendship.

You sold me your understanding of cultural diversity.

And most of all, you sold me your word. All to find out that each one of those

qualities were limited.

Clay, you on the other hand, I mean, you sit there only because you rode the

coattail of Brian.

I really, really, really did overestimate you.

You're nothing more than an ignorant southern redneck hillbilly. That's

My question to you is, How do you define a racist person?

I don't know of a racist mark. I say it. So you're basically telling me behind

my back, you've never made any racist comments about me. About you?

No, I didn't. If I did, I sure didn't mean to. Okay.

So what is Clay's definition?

Of a racist person. Well, my definition of a racist person is this. Ted, I think

a racist person that tries to belittle the other race, whether it's white,

black, brown, pink, or purple, whatever.

Okay. Part two of this question, what can you say to convince me that you're

worthy of my vote?

I was fair with Ted.

Fair with me. Yeah.

100 % fair with me.

Brian, is that true?

No.

I don't have anything else.

That's it.

Thank you, Jeff. Thanks, Ted.

Jan.

Hi, guys. Hey.

38 days I was with y 'all, morning, noon, and night.

Clay, I know you think you work very, very hard in comparing everything. I

you to explain to me that you worked.

It's harder than Brian in the total work of the water and the food and making

the tribe live and survive on day to day. As far as getting food, yes, I very

well did in my share. As far as swimming and getting the water, he did swim a

whole lot more than I did to go get the water. And I asked him, I said, Brian,

I'll go. He said, no, you got other things. And I said, when you want me to

I'm ready to go. And he said, no, I got it. And so I stayed at the house.

Now, Ron, will you defend your comparison of the workload as compared

Place? On a daily basis, I would clam. Every two to three days, I would get

water.

Every night, I would make sure the fire was keeping us all warm as well as

tending to the wonderful soup that allowed us to survive for so many days.

knew it had to be done, and I was more than willing and able.

Okay. Thank you. I'm satisfied.

Helen. Well, we spent 37 days together.

And I had my mind made up week two who I was going to vote for. But that got

ripped right out of my mind the night I left here. I asked you, Brian, point

blank, if I was going.

Because you and I had that thing going.

We had that trust that we'd give the other person the courtesy of telling

But you and Clay told me Jan was going.

And Jan appeared to me really upset that day. And I went to both of you and I

said, you know what? I think she deserves to know she's going.

And you both looked right at me and said, no, leave her alone.

She knows she's going.

Why make her miserable? Knowing full well that you had turned the tables on

You promised me it was us three going to the threesome. But neither one of you

were man enough to tell me.

Clay, it doesn't surprise me from you. You lived up to exactly what I thought

you were the whole time out there. But Brian felt like I was living the Julius

Caesar play.

I wanted to turn around and say, et tu, Brute?

You are the epitome of the trashy used car salesman.

And I have to tell you, it really hurt.

You duped me.

You made a fool of me.

You strung me along, and you let me sit here and get stunned.

So now is your opportunity to tell me why you didn't give me the decency after

all that time to tell me and then follow up with why I should vote for you.

Sure. When, about two days prior, when you and Ted thought

Jan was sleeping, there was a picking order that you were scheming with Ted

was told to me through Jan. It was written in the sand. I was extremely

surprised. Coming from you. I felt just as betrayed as you did at the time. I

felt hurt.

I felt we did have a relationship. We had a friendship. I felt you misused the

trust. You scheme up a plan to go against me. And I told you, Brian, that

ever changed my mind, that I would tell you first. I never came to you to tell

you that because I never changed my mind. Your name was never on my ballot.

I'm asking you your specific reason for not telling me that night as we were

walking out. Because of the knife that you put in my back through what Jen told

me? Hearsay?

Something that didn't come from me?

She saw it. She heard it. Something that you didn't ask me about? This is what

you're going on?

You played a game with me. This is what you're going on? This is what you're

going on, hearsay? Yes, yes.

You didn't come to me and ask me?

I was hurt just like you were hurt. I misled you.

And I admit it.

I couldn't tell you that I felt betrayed because I felt you were trying to take

me out next.

I'm just asking why you didn't think I deserved the decency of a yes, H, you're

going. You could have done it as we were walking out the door, code of silence

after that. You would have never had to deal with me again. I was very angry at

you scheming against me.

Again, hearsay.

Give him a chance to answer. I was very angry at you, and I wanted you to hear

it and feel it that night at the jury.

That I was pissed at you for going behind my back after the relationship

did have, that I thought I could trust you as well, and you did this to me. You

put together a plan with Ted. I heard it through Jan.

That pissed me off. Yes, I did it out of anger, and I admit it.

I completely admit I was not honest with you.

Okay, and part B, why should I vote for you tonight?

For one mistake.

For a truth that I admit, not an apology.

A period of 38, 37 days, whatever we spent together, I made one mistake with

you. I didn't tell you you were going that night, and I apologize.

I take full responsibility for that. I felt that you were powerful enough to

me the following day.

That's how I felt, and I apologize.

It's a little late.

What? I'd sort of like you to explain to me why you think, and I'd actually like

three, if you can come up with three, reasons of how you contributed to

eight people having to survive on that island.

I did stuff every day. I did a little bit every day.

That's all I got to say.

I asked for three reasons on what I do on a daily basis. Helen, you don't

understand because I can tell right now there's no one in the world to satisfy

your answer.

So why try?

Okay. Okay. Then I'm good. Bye.

Thanks, Helen. Thank you.

Jerry, thank you for your questions.

You now have a big decision to make.

Who will walk away with the title of soul survivor?

Take a minute.

Think about it.

Okay, jury. Well, with everything that has been said tonight, I hope you were

able to gather the information you need to make your decision.

The ball is now in your court.

One very big difference in tonight's vote.

Tonight, the jury is voting for somebody. You're not voting against.

You're voting for who you think deserves the title of sole survivor.

Clay and Brian, you want to see your name on the ballot tonight.

Big decision. You ready to make it?

It is time to vote. Erin, you're up.

I'm actually voting for Clayton.

I'm basing my vote on honesty.

And Clay, I feel that you have been honest to everyone.

On the other hand, I do not feel Brian has.

This would have been a very, very easy decision.

You messed up, bro. You messed up. You assumed that what we were writing in the

sand was a scheme against you.

It wasn't. It was a scheme against Clay, not you.

You need to check yourself and know that there are people out there that have

remained committed to their word.

My word was my bond.

And it's pitiful that you didn't know that.

but that you are the lesson of the two evils.

Of the two that are left, Clay really took the time to get to know me as a

person, the 12 days I had with them, and Brian never did.

What happened between you and I happened between you and I.

But in the context of the game, I'm a bigger person and can look beyond what

happened to me.

You deserve to win. You had a work ethic that was great the entire time out

here. Several of the team challenges, you almost single -handedly won on your

own. So for that and your work ethic, you get my vote tonight.

Good luck.

Oh, you win.

I'll go tally the votes.

Been a long 39 days.

Comes down to this.

Jerry, thank you for your very spirited comments and questions.

Here's what's at stake for the winner.

New Chevy Trailblazer. Not a bad truck. And if Brian knew how to spell road

trip, he'd already own one.

Also the title of sole survivor.

And a little cash prize reward that goes along with that in the amount of a

million dollars.

There are seven votes. It takes four to win.

I'll read the votes.

First vote.

Clay.

One vote Clay, one vote Brian.

Brian.

Clay. Two votes Clay, two votes Brian.

Three votes Clay, two votes Brian.

Brian.

Three votes Brian, three votes Clay.

One vote left.

I'll read the last vote.

The winner of Survivor Thailand.

Suigon, the older tribe, the tribe that everybody thought would be gone by the

merge. And what about Brian?

Everybody knew this guy was a player and a threat, and still they trust him.

They let him get to the final two, and they let him take with him a guy that

only didn't do his fair share of the work, half his own tribe didn't even

him. And maybe the most confounding thing of all, at least to me, is why

Ted, Helen, and Jan able to get it together and at least take one of those

guys out?

We're going to get to the bottom of this, plus things like Ted and Gondia.

Remember that incident? How do you explain that one to the spouses?

We're going to find out what happened when they got home. It is going to be a

fast hour. I think it's going to be fun.

Hope you stick around.
