that was not unfounded.

ELIE: I hope this vote solidifies trust, you know?

That was like a trust exercise we just went through.

GABLER: Well, it was. I mean, heck,

GABLER: Our tribe has been slow to get into the game

because up until now we've been

very much focused on the relationships

You know, tomorrow I think it's real important

for us to find some food.

I've been on fumes here the last couple days.

Oh, boy.

(thunder rumbling)

GABLER: Is there anything going there?

OWEN: There are some embers in here.

We just got to find 'em.

GABLER: Right there.

SAMI: That was the roughest night

I've ever had in my entire life.

Back at home,

Back at home,

when it starts raining,

I could go to the convenience store

and wait for my mom to pick me up

or I could run inside

or I could throw my windshield wipers on.

We can't do that out here.

And I don't know if anybody has ever tried to do anything

But sleeping?

GABLER: This adventure is

everything I can take and maybe a little bit more.

I've never pushed my physical boundaries this far

I can stop and do whatever.

This is like-- there's just--

So this game

is blowing my mind right now.

Those gulps of water, which I know are good for me,

Oh, man.

I am worried about Gabler.

He's a big guy and he's running out of steam,

to sustain himself out here.

OWEN: So I'm not 100% sure if he is the best piece of the puzzle

for this tribe moving forward 'cause he's a strong man, but

for this tribe moving forward 'cause he's a strong man, but

it doesn't do us any good if he's lying on the ground.

but I don't want them to look at me

if you will, to manage my body,

DWIGHT: Advantages are all-important in this game.

This is the new era of Survivor, and there's a lot

It's a 26-day season.

JESSE: Yeah.

Okay, yeah.

JESSE: Our tribe is doing all right now,

which feels great.

I think that we work well together.

I think we have a good sort of sense of unity

Noelle and Justine cliqued up, like, almost immediately,

and me, Cody, and Nneka are tight,

and me, Cody, and Nneka are tight,

and Dwight-- he's on his own, basically, so I'm trying

to really build that bond with him

because I think we could be good partners going forward.

Back home, like, all my decisions

Back home, like, all my decisions

have been made in a partnership, right, like...

(both laughing)

(both laughing)

Oh, Lord.

DWIGHT: I wanted to come in here and find somebody I trust

immediately, and Jesse's that person.

He's someone that I could rock with the entire game,

He's someone that I could rock with the entire game,

but at the same time I feel like I've made good social bonds

with everybody on my tribe,

with everybody on my tribe,

and I've been able to do that ever since I was a kid.

When I was in school, whenever there was, like,

some events nearby with influential political figures,

some events nearby with influential political figures,

I'd reach out and say, like,

"Hey, I'm a junior journalist.

Can I interview you?"

Can I interview you?"

Those included Madeleine Albright,

Dr. Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell.

I'd just go up to them, start talking, start asking questions,

I'd just go up to them, start talking, start asking questions,

and I didn't really have that fear in me,

and even to this day I don't fear walking up to people

and just talking to them, so in the game of Survivor,

and just talking to them, so in the game of Survivor,

I'm talking to everybody,

no fear, having a good conversation.

That allows me to build

That allows me to build

these really great bonds with these people,

except for possibly Cody.

JESSE: Yeah.

I really like Cody,

but, like, we never talk game at all.

-For real? -No, like,

-For real? -No, like,

we'll just, like, talk about life, whatever,

but it's never game-related.

-So... -Yeah.

-But got to do it. -Yeah.

JESSE: Dwight doesn't really trust Cody.

JESSE: Dwight doesn't really trust Cody.

Yeah, he doesn't talk strategy, but I'm okay with that.

(laughing): Cody's just Cody.

He's just kind of off on his own.

He's just kind of off on his own.

I want to jump off that 'cause it looks really fun

and it feels like home.

Like, we always go jump off bridges, jump off rocks.

Like, we always go jump off bridges, jump off rocks.

Pretty inviting.

That's beautiful. I want to climb up there

'cause I bet nobody's ever done it before.

'cause I bet nobody's ever done it before.

And it gets kind of boring at camp

just sitting around, eating coconuts.

JESSE: Cody's fun, man, honestly.

JESSE: Cody's fun, man, honestly.

At first you're thinking, like,

oh, this guy's crazy 'cause he's just, like,

spouting out these wild ideas and stuff, but then,

like, I realized he just likes to have fun.

CODY: What do you think of my hat?

(both laugh)

(both laugh)

I'm gonna wear it loud and proud.

JESSE: Cody's just living, dude.

Like, it says it on his ass-- he's living.

Like, it says it on his ass-- he's living.

CODY: You want to enjoy your time while you're out here.

You know, like...

(whoops)

(whoops)

-You know what I mean? -JESSE: Yes, sir.

... yeah.

-Livin'. -Livin'. L-I-V-I-N.

-Livin'. -Livin'. L-I-V-I-N.

JESSE: So, like, I'm not that worried about Cody.

Honestly, like, I'm able to connect with, like,

Honestly, like, I'm able to connect with, like,

almost everybody on the tribe except for Justine.

-Oh, my God. -DWIGHT: What?

Oh.

Oh, my God, there's a spider right there, too.

Oh, my God, I just keep walking into them.

Aah!

Aah!

I literally see spiders crawling all around.

JESSE: I don't know, maybe it's like

the four days of hunger, but I'm starting to get annoyed.

the four days of hunger, but I'm starting to get annoyed.

(laughing)

Wait, Cody, do you mind putting it over one?

'Cause that makes this side of the bed a lot smaller.

'Cause that makes this side of the bed a lot smaller.

Or, like, drag it over a little bit?

Okay.

Okay.

JESSE: The thing about Justine is, like,

I don't know how much we jibe.

She lives, like, a city over from where I grew up,

She lives, like, a city over from where I grew up,

but I think she's just a different kind of person.

JUSTINE: My nails are so disgusting.

JUSTINE: My nails are so disgusting.

JESSE: But at this point we don't have to make a decision.

Also, Dwight risked and lost his vote on the journey, so...

Also, Dwight risked and lost his vote on the journey, so...

at the end of the day, he doesn't really have a say.

I would like to sort of be on the same page as him,

but right now I'm sort of in the driver's seat,

but right now I'm sort of in the driver's seat,

which is awesome.

RYAN: So... bring your foot back.

RYAN: So... bring your foot back.

You're gonna pull it out and then back in.

You're gonna pull it out and then back in.

Back, forward, same foot.

KARLA: We dominated our first immunity challenge,

and that is such a good feeling because

and that is such a good feeling because

overall the Coco tribe is still pretty united,

but when you start peeling back those layers,

you can kind of see where the divides occur.

RYAN: Did you guys finish all your sets?

RYAN: Did you guys finish all your sets?

-Yes. -Five on each side?

KARLA: There's a three-person girls alliance,

which is me, Lindsay,

which is me, Lindsay,

Cassidy, and we're bringing in James to be our fourth.

Yeah. Come on.

Yeah. Come on.

-(crack) -There we go. -(laughs)

KARLA: That leaves Geo and Ryan. They believe

KARLA: That leaves Geo and Ryan. They believe

that I'm in a solid three with them.

You're trying to expand this part when you breathe in.

You're trying to expand this part when you breathe in.

KARLA: But what is making me

a little bit more cautious is,

a little bit more cautious is,

Ryan is very close to Geo.

-(crack) -(groans) -Okay, I...

-(crack) -(groans) -Okay, I...

-You get... you get it? -Yeah.

-(gasps) Yes. -Look at you.

-(gasps) Yes. -Look at you.

-There's a bunch of these trees. -Yeah.

There's another one right there.

Okay.

Okay.

Ah, no, you got it. You really were right.

So, if you really don't... Okay, let's try that.

-Let's find out. (stammers) -We should open this?

-Let's find out. (stammers) -We should open this?

Look at you go.

-Mm-hmm. -And...

Watching the show from TV, you're, like,

Watching the show from TV, you're, like,

Everything looks so much easier, like, anybody can do it,

and it's not.

and it's not.

Just one almond in there?

But I've gone through so many struggles in life.

But I've gone through so many struggles in life.

I had to overcome so many things.

I've kind of always knew that I was gay

I've kind of always knew that I was gay

from a very young age.

I knew that I was different.

When I turned 18,

When I turned 18,

I decided to come out to my parents, and

I decided to come out to my parents, and

their... I guess their dreams kind of, like,

came down crashing

because I wasn't the person that they wanted me to be.

because I wasn't the person that they wanted me to be.

That was kind of hard for me

because I always had that in the back of my head

because I always had that in the back of my head

that if I ever tell my family

that I am not straight,

that I am not straight,

that they would not love me anymore

or they would not want to be with me anymore.

or they would not want to be with me anymore.

My parents didn't agree with me being gay.

My parents didn't agree with me being gay.

They ended up pretty much telling me that

if I'm not gonna change the way I am,

if I'm not gonna change the way I am,

then I will have to go somewhere else or leave the house.

-Oh, this one's pretty good. -Yeah.

GEO: Because of that, I was kind of forced

to going through a homeless stage.

As a lot of people know,

As a lot of people know,

the LGBT community has a very high rate of suicide

and depression, and I did

and depression, and I did

consider not continuing my life,

but I had to learn how to look at the positive.

but I had to learn how to look at the positive.

So I told myself,

"This is your chance to make it happen in life.

"This is your chance to make it happen in life.

"This is your chance to keep going

"and don't let anything or anyone stop you

"and don't let anything or anyone stop you

from whatever you want to accomplish."

And that's exactly how I'm gonna play this game.

And that's exactly how I'm gonna play this game.

I'm gonna tell you right now. (laughs)

I am not gonna let anything or anyone get in my way.

I am not gonna let anything or anyone get in my way.

Oh.

RYAN: Me and Geo feel like

we've known each other since before Survivor.

we've known each other since before Survivor.

I accept him. I feel like he's able to be himself around me.

-GEO: Oh. -RYAN: Okay, cool. They're in here.

-GEO: Oh. -RYAN: Okay, cool. They're in here.

RYAN: And that's something I feel

he really looks for in life--

to be himself and not to have to hide anything.

Yes, we do.

-We-we have a rhythm. -Yeah. Yeah.

RYAN: So I do think there is

a good push-and-pull that we have.

a good push-and-pull that we have.

-Consider myself a new brother. -That works for me.

(laughing)

(laughing)

RYAN: I think if we can take control

and really pay attention,

we can go pretty far. I think we'll be a good duo.

we can go pretty far. I think we'll be a good duo.

My hands are so wet. I can't even get this on.

CODY: Meeting Noelle was really cool.

I-I wanted to meet her seeing that she had, obviously, one leg

I-I wanted to meet her seeing that she had, obviously, one leg

'cause there's a huge story behind that,

and I love to hear those things.

CODY: In high school, my best friend lost his leg.

At first I was like, "Oh.

That's the end of the world," and then, it progressed to...

That's the end of the world," and then, it progressed to...

You know, he's up in heaven with us now,

and he's watching over me right now

here on the game of Survivor, but

here on the game of Survivor, but

that really changed the way I live my life.

You're, like, living a dream life, Cody.

You're, like, living a dream life, Cody.

Was there a moment that spread that,

or, like, have you always been that way?

Uh, I've been pretty, like, crazy my whole life.

Uh, I've been pretty, like, crazy my whole life.

But, like, for me, part of, like, my drive is,

I had a high school friend die of cancer.

I had a high school friend die of cancer.

And then, like, a year later, he passed.

And then, like, a year later, he passed.

I grew up in a small town in Iowa.

A thousand people in my town, 28 kids in my graduating class.

A thousand people in my town, 28 kids in my graduating class.

With that small of a school, we're all pretty tight.

And I realized when Devon died that life was very fragile.

And I realized when Devon died that life was very fragile.

I really had to watch him struggle.

And I think that's-that's why it affected me as much as it did.

And I think that's-that's why it affected me as much as it did.

At that age,

to have to watch how vicious

to have to watch how vicious

life can be to someone that doesn't deserve it--

that made it really, really tough.

that made it really, really tough.

But it put things into perspective, and

But it put things into perspective, and

without that experience, I wouldn't be...

I wouldn't be here today.

I wouldn't... I wouldn't reside in Hawaii.

I wouldn't... I wouldn't reside in Hawaii.

I wouldn't have taken some of the risks

that I have taken in my life.

So I'm gonna play Survivor as hard and as fast as I can,

So I'm gonna play Survivor as hard and as fast as I can,

just like I do in my life. I ain't letting a day

go by out here without really living.

go by out here without really living.

There's not a day

I'm gonna let go that I can't go to bed

and be like, "I had a good time today."

and be like, "I had a good time today."

My friends back home describe me sometimes as a, uh...

a lovable curmudgeon, and I'm trying

to keep the curmudgeon under wraps.

to keep the curmudgeon under wraps.

I've tried to be

a bit more measured, and I think all my friends at home

are gonna be very proud of how

are gonna be very proud of how

much I've held it together to this point.

Aah!

(mutters)

Someone had to do it

Someone had to do it

'cause these fools don't like drinking water that much.

But I'm fine. I'm fine.

But I'm fine. I'm fine.

I don't need... Yes, you do.

I feel like the next vote

is gonna be a really tough one.

I feel like you and me need to be thinking about, like,

I feel like you and me need to be thinking about, like,

who would be a safe bet for a vote.

-You know? -Yes, for sure.

Going to Tribal kicked things into gear,

and really forced us to now be in game mode.

and really forced us to now be in game mode.

So I've been talking strategy with Elie.

Obviously, we've been close from the start.

Obviously, we've been close from the start.

And we have our pick of whether we want to bring in

Owen or Sami as our third.

Owen or Sami as our third.

Who do you feel close with outside of this?

ELIE: I think, at first, Owen,

ELIE: I think, at first, Owen,

but maybe more recently, Sami, only because

Owen's gonna be a lot

to manage, like, once we get to the merge.

I feel a little bit like Sami and Owen are my children.

Sami is my firstborn, and he came out really independent,

Sami is my firstborn, and he came out really independent,

and, you know, strong-willed.

He can kind of take charge

and doesn't need a lot of tending to.

and doesn't need a lot of tending to.

And Owen is, like, my baby boy, my second born.

Even though he's older, he needs a lot more attention, and so,

Even though he's older, he needs a lot more attention, and so,

he's the more high-maintenance child

in this situation.

(sighs)

(sighs)

If you need to take a break, you can take a break.

Okay? So the frustration

-makes it harder, right? -(laughs)

-makes it harder, right? -(laughs)

Okay. Yeah.

I know.

I'm so confused about it. Are they doing something

I'm so confused about it. Are they doing something

that we're just not seeing?

This foot seems worse than the other one.

Mine are equally pruning and gross right now.

You guys know who Patrick Mahomes is?

-Oh, yeah. -Yeah. -I'm Patrick Mahomes.

-Oh, yeah. -Yeah. -I'm Patrick Mahomes.

OWEN: Dude, you're rocking his haircut. Yeah.

GABLER: You look like him, yeah.

You kind of look like him, man. Geez.

(Owen laughs)

(Owen laughs)

(laughs)

(laughs)

But I think that it's opened the door for the two of us to be,

like, strategic incognito.

like, strategic incognito.

I wonder if they're talking about us.

SAMI: You got to take it into consideration.

-They do seem pretty close. -Hmm.

-They do seem pretty close. -Hmm.

But here's the dealio. It doesn't matter.

-One, two, three. -Yeah. -It's true.

-One, two, three. -Yeah. -It's true.

SAMI: The guys need to look out for each other

in the event that this thing goes south

and those girls stick together.

Because those girls will vote together

Because those girls will vote together

to the very end of this game.

And I think that the best way for me to go right now

And I think that the best way for me to go right now

is with Gabler and Owen.

If they try to pull something funny

and pull aside any one of us...

and pull aside any one of us...

GABLER: Then we know what to do.

OWEN: I genuinely hope

-it doesn't come to that. -I hope it doesn't, too.

-But the game's on now. -OWEN: The game is on. -GABLER: Yeah.

-But the game's on now. -OWEN: The game is on. -GABLER: Yeah.

We got to look out for each other.

I got you boys always.

I'm not the kind of person

that enjoys the whole guys

that enjoys the whole guys

or girls alliance, or...

I don't-I don't think that alliances should be based

off of that, but I think me, Gabler

off of that, but I think me, Gabler

and Owen are being completely underestimated

by the women altogether.

So, we have to be able to look out for each other 'cause

So, we have to be able to look out for each other 'cause

we have the numbers, and we will be stupid

to lose to them.

"Okay, if I find this, will it really help me right now
