Brazil's token cheese.

A hot and

mirthless terrain.

With the crystal waters of the Rio Novo providing a source of life and hidden

danger.

36 days ago, 16 strangers were thrust into this unforgiving environment.

Welcome to Survivor Tocantins.

Your time starts now because this game is on.

Jalapal and Timbira.

Jalapal wins immunity.

Went blow for blow in challenges.

Timbera wins immunity.

Right now, the momentum's like this.

Jalapal wins immunity.

Timbera wins immunity.

But the real game was back at camp. JT, Steven, and Taj.

Everybody give me their hands.

Formed the Jalapal Three.

Taj just put herself, me, and Steven in a really tight alliance.

While at an early Timbera Tribal Council.

I'd love to be the leader. That's what I'm used to doing. Coach fought for

control of his tribe. It's a role that coaches used to, but it's something that

Brendan does better. For her to be so quick to say that, I think comes more to

personality clash.

And Aaron, a perpetual outsider.

I want to get Aaron out immediately.

Struggled to stay in the game.

I have to turn a girl that maybe is kind of on the outs a little bit into the

opposite of that. Because now I feel like I'm kind of fighting for my life a

little bit.

Can Vera win?

Timbera took the lead in challenging.

After the merge, Timbera was thick strong against the Jalapal 3, Taj,

and JT.

Traditionally, if you're outnumbered going into a merge, you're sitting dope.

What will today bring?

But with Coach and Brendan locked in a power struggle. When it comes head to

head, we'll see who really was the chosen one. And Aaron still on the outs.

you guys, we're not like my own tribe.

The Jalapal Three saw an opportunity to divide and conquer. Aaron's vote would

be huge. Todd, myself, Steven, and Aaron could easily turn the game around.

They convinced Aaron to turn on her former Timbira tribe mate and wiped them

from the game.

In a devastating series of blind sides.

The tribe has spoken.

Until only Coach remains.

Dragon Slayer makes his dragon cane. He was ready for a fight.

But it turned out to be his last stand.

12th person voted out and the 5th member of our jury.

He received every vote except JT's. The tribe has spoken.

Now only four remain.

Erin. I will lie and cheat and stab you in the back.

I didn't come out here so that my friends and family at home could really

respect me. I came out here because I want to go home with a million bucks.

Steven, I think my story is a little bit of a David and Goliath story.

I'm not the physical competitor in challenges.

I'm not the guy who's at ease in the wild. And for me to be sitting really

right now to a million dollars.

You know, I think it speaks a lot for me. Taj.

In this game, I'm trying to stay under the radar, have everyone believe that

this simple person. If I have to smile in your face and stab you in the back,

I'm sorry. That's the name of the game. I'm going to do it.

JT. I'm no stupid country boy.

I'm the hardest worker out here. I get things done.

I fish, work, and I battle it out with physical challenges.

Then I come back and I start the social game.

I'm an all -around competitor in this game. It was made for me.

Find out tonight.

Who will be the sole survivor?

All right, kids.

Final four.

Exciting stuff.

And one in four shot at a million dollars.

Say it louder.

It was the final four, guys.

High five. We are at the final four.

We just had tribal council tonight, and Coach went home.

Coach made me promise him that I was voting Aaron, and I did. I voted Aaron

tonight as coach.

It was tough to see him go, but we're down to the final four now.

So everything's going as planned. I'm just starting to get a little worried

about jury votes.

JT ended up voting with Coach, I think for both personal and strategic reasons.

You know, then JT comes off looking like the loyal ally, whereas I'm the guy who

backstabbed Coach.

You know, ultimately, I think it'll hurt me.

You definitely got his vote tonight, friend.

You know, I think I probably will come off as a villain.

And you're going to profit from it.

Either way, it's done.

I'm obviously very loyal to JT, but I'm also loyal to myself and my own odds of

winning a million dollars.

So I need to think about who do I want to be there at the end with?

Who can I beat at the end?

37.

37.

It's hard to believe that I'm still here, final four.

There's a huge feeling of accomplishment, especially for me,

the remaining three's out of power here in the final four together.

You guys want to check if we got any female?

Yeah, I'm just going to do it. I'm going to be shaking out there.

We were supposed to be gone a long time ago, and to come over here outnumbered

and now be 3 -1.

And our entire jury's Timbera. I mean, it's a masterpiece.

Can't discount anybody in the final four.

Our biggest threat, of course, is Jay.

I know.

Well, you know, if JT loses immunity, dot, dot, dot.

Wow.

I don't know.

Dot, dot, dot. I don't think I can do that. I couldn't do that either.

No.

Better him than me.

Oh.

Tree male.

Tree male.

Oh. Oh.

Oh, no.

This could be ugly.

Oh, no.

This could be ugly.

I am the last Timbeer standing.

Which means that I'm with three of the original Galcom members, people who have

been together since day one. And they've really become, like, best friends out

here. Look at this thing.

What? What the hell is that? A spider?

Mm -hmm. Oh, that's nasty.

Hope you're not arachnophobic. Do huge spiders make you worry?

If you get spun out with the web, you could get stuck in the jury.

Oh, man.

Spun out with the web.

I would definitely like to win immunity today.

Otherwise, it could very well be me going home.

Good morning, guys.

Welcome, Final Four.

Congratulations. You guys ready to get to today's challenge?

Yeah. First things first, JT.

Put back the immunity necklace.

Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, you're going to race through a tarantula -shaped optical

course to three different stations.

You'll retrieve a bag of puzzle pieces for each one.

Once you've collected all three bags, you'll use those puzzle pieces to solve

web -shaped puzzle.

First person to get it right wins immunity.

Guaranteed a one in three shot of winning this game.

Lose this challenge, you are guaranteed a one in three shot of going home.

Big stakes.

You guys ready to get started?

Yeah. Let's do it.

Here we go for immunity.

And a guaranteed spot in the final three.

Drivers ready.

Go.

Big balls right off the bat.

JT and Taj going up the same leg of the tarantula.

Even though there are many to choose from.

JT flying through it. Now to the other side.

Steven really taking his time. Erin taking her time.

JT has his first bag. He's heading back.

JT now flying back the other way.

Erin working on her first bag.

Steven at his first bag.

Todd's at her first bag.

JT heading out for bag number two.

That rope will tear you up.

You're going to lose some skin in this challenge.

JT at his second bag.

Nobody else even back with their first bag yet.

Taj back with her first bag. Steven back with his first bag.

Erin now back with her first bag.

JT back with his second bag.

JT has one bag left. Only one bag left for JT.

It's going to be a showdown.

JT heading one way. Taj heading the other.

Steven back with his second bag.

Lay down. Come through the hurt. JT going over Taj.

Erin back with her second bag.

Taj is out with her second bag.

JT is through with his final bag.

JT start working on the puzzle.

Steven heading back with his final bag.

Erin and Taj both have one bag left.

JT already working on that puzzle.

It is a difficult puzzle.

You would expect nothing left on day 37.

Steven out with his third and final bag. Start working on the puzzle, Steven.

Aaron and Taj, both working on that final bag.

Puzzle takes a long time. Don't give up, Taj. Don't give up, Aaron.

Big time immunity.

You do not want to go to tribal council tonight without immunity.

Taj threw with her third bag. Aaron threw with her third bag.

JT's had a nice head start.

Steven's had a pretty good amount of time.

Aaron is the last to get here.

There'll be one piece in the center, then two pieces in the second row, three

pieces in the third row.

Always.

Steven proved earlier he's a whiz with numbers.

That holds true for puzzles.

JT getting closer.

Only five pieces left for JT if he has them in the right spot.

Erin making up a lot of ground now.

Erin was the last person to start working on her puzzle.

Taj starting to fall behind now.

Steven's still fighting to stay in this.

Right now it is between JT, Steven, and Aaron.

JT down to one piece left, but he can't find a spot for it.

Maybe he's got one in the wrong spot.

Aaron has closed the gap now. It is Aaron and JT.

JT wins again.

I'm so close.

All right, Jake.

Oh, man.

JT, once again, back to back.

Nice job.

Woo -hoo.

Once again, JT is safe at Tribal Council. Tonight, Aaron, Stephen, Taj.

It's been 37 days. That will be all it is for one of you. Grab your stuff, head

back to camp.

See you at Tribal.

I had it. I got my last pieces out, ready to put them into the very, very

one.

JT1 immunity.

Frustrating to no end.

I am sitting next to three people who have been together since day one, and I

very aware that they could just take me out and keep Todd.

Well done.

Well,

JT wins immunity today.

Any one of the Jalapal members had they won, it would have worked in our favor.

And the plan is to vote for Aaron because Jalapal is Jalapal, the three.

long as we stay loyal, we can go to the final three together.

Let's get in that water.

I'm going to get in the water. It's going to burn so bad.

Erin, I'm sure she's vying for a spot. She's going to be trying to convince

that she's worthy of being here.

But I want her to realize that she can try all day long. The guys are loyal to

me until the final three, and we're going to move on like that.

I've got to ease in before I... Well, actually, coming over and sitting down

the same as easing in.

You know how I don't like to do it all at once.

Back from the challenge, all I'm thinking about is, like, what's my next

How am I going to plead my case?

What do I do? What do I say?

I don't want to make it seem as though I'm scrambling. I'm just going to say my

piece.

I mean, because she has played such a good social game. Like, she has made

really good friends with everyone.

And, I mean, she definitely played a great game, aside from just, like, being

very likable.

And I totally think she could win.

Erin's really playing her game down in the water, and she made a good point.

Todd has a very good chance of beating me at jury votes because everyone loves

Todd.

This is a game for a million dollars right now. It doesn't matter who's

who's Jalapal.

I want to make sure I've got a good shot at a million dollars.

Should we go talk to Todd right now?

How do we do this?

It's not the last hard vote.

Aaron, we can beat. For sure.

In the final.

Then we're basically guaranteed the final, too.

I believe we're going to take care of the final three.

As long as you're solid, I don't care what we do, man.

All right, good.

We're taking each other no matter what. No matter what.

JT and I are sort of trying to figure out if we'd rather go to the final three

with Taj or with Aaron.

If I betray Taj, you know, I definitely won't look good in the jury's eyes.

But how do I get to the finals and how do I win them?

That's been really guiding all of my decisions.

If we vote off Aaron tonight, then it will

be Taj, me, and JT in the next immunity challenge.

I think Taj has a stronger chance than Aaron would in that challenge.

I think there's also a very good chance that Todd would take JT to the final

two. Maybe she thinks, I'm going to take this kid from rural Alabama rather than

the New York City boy.

So it's a really difficult decision on both strategic and moral and personal

grounds. First of all, is tonight on air?

Yeah, that's what we're going for.

Really? Definitely.

Who else? I just want to make sure. You never know. Well, you can't go for me.

No, I will never. Thank God.

That's what that means you're going to enter over for me.

So, you're not voting for me. No, no, I was making sure y 'all wasn't voting for

me.

Tonight's a very hard tribal council.

Todd, myself, and Stephen, we are the tightest three in this game, no doubt

about it.

And so we're definitely reassuring Todd that Aaron's going home, and Aaron may

be going home.

We're not sure what we're going to do tonight, but Stephen and I are going to

stick together on whatever decision we make.

Now bring in the members of our jury.

Brendan, Tyson, Sierra, Debbie, and Coach voted out at the last

tribal council.

Steven, going back to the merge, it was six Timbera members, three Jalapal. Here

we are tonight.

Five of the six Timbera are on the jury.

How did this happen?

Basically, we sort of had a game plan. We each kind of selected a few members

Timbira who we thought we might connect with, and I think that's really helped

us. I think what was the most important thing was just we would all stick

together.

Erin, you are the lone remaining Timbira member.

All of your former tribe mates make up the jury.

That's true. I mean, I'm pretty proud of myself, not in a vengeful way, but it

speaks greatly of my self -preservance.

And I definitely made decisions that kept me here, and that is amazing to me.

So, Erin, when you guys get back from the challenge, is it scramble time for

you? One thing that I have learned watching everyone go out before me is

scrambling does not work.

So if history holds true to form, the final Timbera member, you, will join the

jury, and the Jalapal 3 will battle it out to see who goes to the end.

Absolutely. These three really have been working together since day one or two

of this game. I wouldn't be surprised if they continued to do so.

Taj, how big a risk would it be to let Erin have a shot of going to the end

all of her former tribe mates are on the jury?

Well, that might be a plus for her because we are the three Jalapal members

came in and put all of the Timbir members on the jury. They may not want

for one of us, so she might get the votes just to be vindictive. So it could

pretty dangerous.

It seems like that the safest bet, Stephen, is to have the Jalapal 3 go to

end because then at least we're all even. I mean, there's definitely that to

consider. I also think it's an individual game, and you have to

everyone in the eyes of the jury. So you have to think, like, who do I measure

up against best?

Does that mean then that now that Coach is out, this whole philosophy of take

the best to the end is gone?

I mean, look, I respect Coach's philosophy, and I always wanted to be

the best, but obviously I've formed real bonds with everybody here. And so, you

know, I almost hope I'm not in the position to make that decision.

Well, but you are. You have a vote.

I almost feel as though as the thunder continues to crackle around us, it's

almost like you just showed up and this is your first day here, and you don't

even know how the game is playing. You can only vote for Aaron or Taj.

So which is it? Okay.

I guess for me, you know, the vote tonight is about how do I better assure

myself a place in the finals.

JT, you've come a long way together.

Trust these other three?

Yeah, I obviously trust Stephen and Todd more so than Aaron because I've spent a

lot more time with them, and they've made promises that have been kept.

I've come to trust Aaron not near as much as I trust the other two.

Taj. I agree. From day one, JT and Steven have been by my side, so I have

reason to distrust them. And Erin, I think she's a great girl, and I believe

her, but I haven't been around her long enough to put my complete faith in her.

Would you be a little shocked if it was you tonight?

Oh, yeah, I would be very shocked if it was me tonight. I would be very shocked.

But everyone has a plan, and everyone's trying to win a million dollars, so

there's no rules.

Erin, let's flip it.

If at the end of tonight's vote, you, the only remaining Timbera member, are

still here, are you going to be shocked?

Surprised. I wouldn't say shocked because anything can happen, but I would

definitely be surprised if I didn't go home tonight.

So what odds do you give yourself as we go into this vote?

Well, I'm going to give myself a 33 % chance of sticking around.

So the real question is...

Will the Jollipal 3 remain strong and vote out Aaron, or is somebody about to

shocked? Let's get to the vote. JT, you have the necklace. I assume you're

keeping it. Yes, sir.

Cannot vote for JT. Everybody else is fair game?

It is. Time to vote. Aaron, you're up.

You've played a great game. Hope to see you on the other side.

I'll go tally the votes.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final. Person voted out will be asked

to leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the votes.

First vote.

Taj.

Aaron. One vote Taj, one vote Aaron.

Taj. Two votes Taj, one vote Aaron.

Thirteenth person voted out and the sixth member of our jury.

Taj, you can bring me a torch.

Taj, the tribe has spoken.

Congratulations. You've made it to the final three.

Tomorrow you will compete in your final immunity challenge.

Try to get a good night's sleep.

Grab your stuff and get back to camp.

Good night.

It's day 37.

I got blindsided by my Jalapal members that have been looking out for me from

day one.

And for them to blindside me, it blew my mind. So it's going to be really hard

to choose who's worthy of a million dollars. But either way, if Erin finds a

to weasel herself into the end, she got my vote.

Coming up next.

He's going to fight like hell to win. Me too, I'm going to fight like hell.

Aaron pits Steven and JT against each other. There's been a lot of talk about

how it would be suicide to go up against you.

Suicide? Yeah.

I have a good shot at going to the end. If the two of them are both willing to

take me, it puts me in a good spot.

Find out tonight who will claim the million dollar prize.

Final three, fever.

Crazy, crazy.

That was a tough one. Yeah. Not a travel council. Probably the toughest yet.

I really did not want to vote Todd off tonight.

But we made a decision based upon how easy it would be to win at the next

challenge, and we had to get rid of Todd.

Okay, so every single tribal council since the merge has gone exactly like we

planned for it to.

That is crazy.

I really felt like she knew and she was kind of continuing to go with it. But

she didn't seem upset at all when it happened and she didn't seem surprised.

I'm already suffering the consequences because...

Erin is the most annoying person I've met in the world, and she will not shut

up. It didn't even, like, seem all that crazy to me until you said, tomorrow

will be your final immunity challenge.

Don't feel too bad, buddy.

This is a celebratory time for the final three.

I know, man. We are the final three. One more individual immunity challenge,

less than a game.

It's great to be in the top three. I mean, it's a great milestone for us, but

it's sort of...

You know, it's definitely tainted by the fact that we voted out Todd, and that

hurts, and also just Aaron is chattering away, and that's annoying, and, you

know, totally ignorant of any sort of emotional turmoil that JT and I are

through. We're pretty awesome, guys.

Final three is, like, the thing that you play for.

But right now you have to think about how you're going to get to the finals.

can't make a strategic decision based on sort of the emotional niceness of it.

We have our last immunity challenge today.

I already have my decision made if I win.

I'm taking Steven with me. It's the choice that's going to give me the best

chance of winning.

Yeah, I agree.

I do trust you, but I trust me more.

I also agree.

Even if I don't win immunity today, I have a good shot at going to the end.

Neither of these guys want to go up against each other. I mean, we're all in

positions where we could definitely win this thing, but if the two of them don't

want to fight it out with each other and they are both willing to take me, it

puts me in a good spot.

He's going to fight like hell to win today.

I know he is.

We two must fight like hell. Yeah.

We have to win.

Yeah. We stand a chance against each other. I don't think either of us stand

chance against him in the finals, right?

Absolutely. I'm a little afraid of winning today's immunity challenge

then I'll have a really difficult choice ahead of me.

Take JT, who has been my comrade in arms, my closest friend, my ally, my

strategist since the very beginning of this game, or take Aaron with me, who I

think I've better shot against in the final two.

We're solid 100%, right?

Yeah. We're eating breakfast tomorrow.

She's not going to beat both of us. You have my word and my life. I'll take you

in that.

I can't wait.

I have yours too, right? Yeah.

All right.

I just want to make sure we're in an official agreement before we win this

challenge. Yes, man.

I'm sitting in a good spot to go to the final two, but you can't help but be

worried sick, man.

I'm worried.

There's no way she can beat both of us. I don't think so.

You never can tell.

If Aaron was to win this challenge, I know I'm not going to the final two.

And, you know, I'd like to think Stephen will hold up to his end of the deal

just as well as I will, but you never know.

Yeah, man.

Yeah, it's the biggest challenge of my life.

Yep.

One of us is going to win the million dollars.

They're going to have to decide between me and you. I'm taking you to the final

two, Stephen, if I win. There's no doubt about it, man.

No doubt about it. Me too.

What a funny pair we are, you know?

I know.

I'm sure you can trust Stephen with anything in everyday life, as you could

me. But with a million dollars in a game that you know you're here to lie to

win, it's a different story.

So I've got one thing in mind that's winning this challenge.

This is day 38.

Who would have ever thought I'd be standing here?

I know it. I know.

I love that it's the three of us.

I love that it's me and two other people.

Yeah. Yeah, me too.

Let's see what we got here.

What do we got?

We can just open it here.

Awesome.

Follow the map across the river.

There you will find the torches of your fallen comrade.

At each torch, you will collect a representative idol of those who were

out before you. At the end of your journey, you will burn them and pay your

respects. As they each had a part in getting you to this point, you will then

proceed to your final immunity challenge.

All right.

The rites of passage is sort of a narrative of our adventure. Just every

along the way, the people we've had to face, the dragons we've had to slay, to

coin a phrase.

Let's just keep this.

Heavy as the head, then wear the necklace.

I think this is mostly going to be about just paying respect to the people who

fell along the way.

I do think we owe it to them to kind of show that they matter to us, that we

valued them as people and as enemy combatants on the field of survivor

Carolina. Sweet Carolina.

So much trouble and such a little body.

A part of me has to be okay with the fact that I was the first voted out, but

hurts so bad to be sent home so early, especially to be blindsided.

However, I learned that maybe I should be a little bit more patient sometimes,

and I should just sit back and allow things to just happen and not always

the need to try to control things.

Oh, pandas.

I may have been her only friend in this game, but gosh darn it, I liked her a

lot.

There's a part of me that's just like, gosh, Candace, why couldn't you tolerate

the egocentric, sexist crap that was coming out of Coach's mouth? Like, why

couldn't you play along?

But it was just too much for me. This whole social compatibility crap, it was

downfall.

Jerry, if you could pick your own dad, you would totally pick Jerry to be your

dad. He was cool.

The worst time in this game for me was the day I got voted off. Man, I was

feeling so bad. I mean, I was hurting. I had been hurting for days, and I didn't

want nobody to know about it. I was hiding.

I mean, I had been in the reserves for like 26 years now, and we had some tough

training, but boy, survival by far was the toughest.

Bambi, she was an excellent woman. She was definitely a bit crazy.

She definitely provided me with one of the more humbling moments of my lifetime

as well.

I don't believe I could have played this game any harder than I did. I was able

to overcome the first impression with my tribe.

The tribe did a complete flop.

I think I entertained them enough that, you know, I made them laugh.

So I kind of, you know, I drew them in, and they saw the strength come out. So

I'm pretty proud of myself.

Spencer? He knew the game probably better than anybody I know. He was a

fan and a very strong strategist.

I feel very honored that I am the youngest contestant ever on Survivor.

think my age might have also had something to do with the game and the

I voted out fifth.

I tended to trust more people than my older teammates would have done. I

to see the good in people.

And in a game like this, you really, you have to check that at the door. But not

only did I play the game of Survivor, I was the first ever teenager to play the

game. And that's pretty cool.

Did me.

What a beautiful girl. What a wonderful lady.

That was one of the first hard votes we had to make, Stephen. She was a tough

one, her and Todd's.

A big revelation for me, I think, was maybe I shouldn't have ridden some

coattails. I should have been making those moves myself. I don't need

from other people. If I feel something, then why don't I just do it? I need to

be more, I guess.

Self -assured. And that's something I learned for sure.

Joe.

Oh, Joe.

Captain America.

Most decent guy out here.

Medically evacuated. There's not a way anybody wants to go.

Literally, I was just getting started. But my body failed me. The main lesson I

learned is that, just generally speaking, Mother Nature is a pretty

force. I think I'm tough enough to win this game.

But I injured my knee and took me down.

Brendan, first dragon to be slain in the Forza Tribe.

He was a good player, a good athlete. Too true.

Just because you have been successful in business doesn't necessarily translate

to the survivor experience.

You know, you come into it like, oh, I can win this thing. But it's a lot

than it looks.

A humbling experience, and I have a lot more respect for it now that I got my

ass beat by it.

Nice one.

Good buddy, Tad.

Funny guy, a really kind, really sincere guy, and taking him out was like the

starting point of the game for us, I think.

I think the blind side actually, for most people, comes when they're the most

confident. And I was definitely overconfident. I was like, I've got this

wrapped up. But it's usually not the strongest person that wins. The more

pathetic you look and act usually seems to get you pretty far in the game.

So those people can have their money. I'll keep my awesome personality and

fantastic good looks.

Sierra. Sierra.

She was surprisingly honest and just a really sweet girl. I mean, it was great

getting to know her.

I would sum up my survivor experience as trial and tribulation.

It was highs and lows throughout the whole entire game for me. I wore my

on my sleeve. I stayed true to who I was.

I did everything I could but give up, and I was really happy about that.

It was the hardest and most amazing thing I've ever done in my life, and it

forever change who I am as a person.

Debbie.

Little Debbie.

Little Debbie.

Debbie was easily the person that I was closest to out here.

It was the hardest vote.

For sure. She was a super strong player.

Always up in the top in the immunity challenges, extremely strategic, really

kind. I mean, she was one of the biggest threats in the game.

Sorry you had to go, Debbie.

As a middle school principal, I deal with all different kinds of people every

single day.

So I really thought this game was going to be something that I would get in

here, figure everybody out.

Unfortunately, I've also learned that I maybe am not as great at figuring people

out as I thought.

But there's not many things that can be thrown at me in life anymore that I

won't know that I can't handle.

Coach. My most satisfying blindside date.

Probably one of the most honest people I know and definitely, definitely set out

to change the game.

He did change the game, you know, in his own way. He got final five with never

telling a lie and being purely honest.

Yeah, what a great storyteller, too. Yeah, absolutely.

Yeah, I got a lot of respect for Coach.

Nietzsche once said, there is always some madness in love, but there's always

some reason in madness.

And I think that even as crazy as the game was, as crazy as it was that I got

blindsided, I can think of no finer way to go out than a man who has fought in

battle. I go back to the Vikings and the Indians and the samurai.

You look at how they died, and how did I leave?

Head held high in the end, not defeated, not broken. And hopefully, like a Greek

tragedy, in death, I will give other people every birth of ideas.

Taj, that was without a doubt the hardest vote so far this game.

She's an incredibly strong woman, very fierce in competitions.

Definitely. Loving. Hey, Cam, what else can you ask for? And so fun.

Yeah. Taj will be a friend of mine for the rest of my life. Absolutely.

This experience is going to stick with me for the rest of my life. You know, I

learned to do so many things. I mean, I'm the fire starter now. I can show

people how to start fires in seconds. I can fish and feed a tribe. I can help

build shelters. I can do just about anything right now. But I totally

underestimated and lost focus on the million dollars as well as

to win that million dollars.

I lost focus in the game, and that cost me the game.

On the other side of rites of passage is our last immunity challenge.

And I want to fight like hell to win so I can be guaranteed a spot in the final

two.

We're coming a long way, guys.

Yeah, we have.

There's no reason why I lose this challenge.

And it's going to take an act of Congress to get me to step down from

I mean, I want my body to have to fail me.

This is the final immunity challenge.

The person who wins this will definitely be in the final two and gets to control

who he or she takes with him to the final two. And I would like to be the

making that decision.

So I am really going to give it my all in a way that I don't think I have in

previous immunity challenges.

Because, you know, this is for a million dollars.

Guys, ready to get to your final immunity challenge?

Yes, sir.

JT, take back the necklace once again.

For the last time, immunity is back up for grabs.

Today's challenge is going to require concentration and coordination.

You will place the ball down a chute.

The ball will spiral downwards until it drops out the bottom where you must

catch it.

Place it back in the chute.

Every few minutes, we'll add another ball.

The balls will alternate left and right, making it more difficult to keep track

of which chute it's going to drop out of.

If at any point any one of your balls hits the ground, you're out of the

challenge. Last person to keep all of their balls in play wins.

To make it more fun, one hand will be tied behind your back.

Wow. At stake.

Everything you have worked for for 38 days. You win this challenge, you win

immunity, you are guaranteed a spot in the final two.

And you will decide who sits next to you at that final tribal council.

This could very well be a million dollar challenge.

Ready to get to it? Yeah.

We'll drop our spots and we'll get started.

Here we go, the final immunity challenge.

Everybody grab your first ball.

Three, two, one, drop it.

This challenge is underway.

We'll start with one ball.

Let you get the hang of it.

Those balls will alternate on the left side, then the right side.

We're going to go to two balls in a second.

Time now to add a second ball.

Everybody's got two balls in play now.

Make it a little more complicated.

It also becomes a question of spacing.

When do you place that ball back in the chamber so they don't get too close

together?

In just a moment, we're going to add a third ball.

So start getting ready for it.

It's now time to drop a third ball.

Everybody has got three balls going.

This challenge is more mental than it is physical. Who has the mental focus to

last after 38 days out here?

One flip, one mental lap.

It's over.

Aaron drops the ball. Aaron is out of this challenge.

It is Stephen and JT battling it out for final immunity and a guaranteed spot at

the final tribal council.

All Erin can do now is watch and hope somebody chooses her to go with them.

Three balls now for Steven and JT.

Spacing is so critical.

When you place the ball in the chute, making sure all three balls are spaced

far apart as possible.

Give you enough reaction time.

Steven with a lucky save.

Steven with another nice save.

It's now time to place your fourth ball.

Four balls going now.

Everything just ramped up.

Stay focused.

Balls are flying. Stephen with another nice save.

A lot to keep track of.

And keep your concentration.

Don't let your mind drift.

Stephen drops out. JT wins. Final immunity. And a guaranteed spot in the

two. Way to go, buddy.

Way to go.

Good job.

Thanks.

JT, you ready for this?

Yeah.

The third time in a row, maybe the most important time, JT has immunity.

You've gone as far as you can go in this game. You will be in the final tribal

council. You will get a chance to plead your case for a million dollars.

Tonight at tribal council, you will decide whether it is Aaron or Stephen.

That sits next to you at the final tribal.

Big decision, possibly a million -dollar decision.

You have the afternoon to figure it out. Grab your stuff and head back to camp.

I'm guaranteed a one -two shot at a million dollars. Can I get to decide

going up next to me?

And Stephen and I had a promise, but promises come cheap in this game.

And, you know, I'm thinking about that, but I try to keep most of mine.

So I've got a big decision ahead of me.

Congratulations. You're hot. Thanks, man. That was hard.

When JT won today's immunity challenge, I just felt an enormous weight just

lifted off of me. If you go home before I go home, leave your beard alone, and

I'll help you fix it. All right.

I was really dreading the decision of, do I take JT to the final two? My

ally, you know, the person who I'm closest with in this game, or do I take

Aaron? who I'm not even particularly fond of, but who I have a very good shot

winning a million dollars against.

It would have been such a scumbag decision to go with Aaron over JT, and

that just taken away from me is so gratifying.

So how are you feeling?

I've got a big decision to make now.

You never know if I'll achieve it.

You think Tim Beers is going to vote for you?

No, I really don't. In my situation, every single one of them resents the

that I outlasted them.

Every single one of them. They all wanted me to go before they went. The

vote that, like, really might come my way is if Taj was so pissed at you guys,

she didn't want to vote for you. Definitely.

She probably would.

Let's see. Well, there's seven people, so four is what we need to win. Mm -hmm.

There's been a lot of talk about how it would be suicide to go up against you.

That's what Stephen said.

Stephen would want to take you, wouldn't he?

I think so.

He ever tell you for sure?

Yeah.

Stephen and I made a promise to each other that if we do make it to this

in the game, we'll take each other to the final two.

But I'm finding out that Steven's already told Aaron the same thing. So

he'd have kept up his end of the deal, I'll never know.

This is a game where you have to be ruthless.

And I know I can hands down beat Aaron.

Steven will have to make a damn good case for himself. He's going to argue it

well, too. I know. Like, the man is so much more eloquent than we are.

I know.

Even though I feel like I should beat him, I could go up there and talk some

good determinants.

Yeah.

You would be the more logical person to take.

No doubt about it.

I think JT taking Steven to the final two is a very noble thing to do. They

come a long way together in this game. They've been together since the

beginning. And to take him would be, like, very honorable. They can kind of

fight it out to the end, but it might just be a draw. It's going to be a very

close battle.

And what I know about J .T. is that he's somebody that really wants and really

needs this money.

And if J .T. wants to win a million dollars, he'll send Stephen home

It's the only thing that makes sense.

She has a very good one.

I mean, she told me you would have took her.

That's not true. You know that.

I hope so.

If you want to talk through something, I'm willing to talk through it.

What do you mean? If you're just having doubts or something, you know.

I know it's a hard decision, though, anyway. I mean, you have to think about

I mean, it's guaranteed a million dollars for her.

You're still going to win a million dollars, and you'll do the right thing.

You know, I just got to always question myself.

I understand.

That's why we're well together.

We both question our decisions.

It would make good sense for JT to take Aaron with him to the final two.

Why take a gamble on me when he could have a lock with Aaron? You know, when

took out Taj, when we took out Coach, we've always kept in mind that there's a

lot of money at stake here.

And do we want to let sentiment get in the way of that money? So I think it's

going to be a really difficult decision for JT tonight.

I believe that I have a good read on JT and on what his word means and when he

means it. I don't think he will betray me tonight.

I think the fact that you take me will do wonders. I mean, I think everyone's

going to really respect that.

You have to know that you're going to win this.

I do not. I've known that since we first started our partnership. I've always

known that.

I sure don't know it.

I'm nervous, man. I know that you're solid, but, like, it's still scary.

I'll be scared for you.

My mom told me when I left, JT, I know you're strong and you're smart. You can

win this game. If anybody can do it, you can do it.

Just don't do anything stupid.

And that keeps running through my head.

And to blow that opportunity on trust in someone I've known for only 39 days, if

I was to lose because of that decision I made, I think everybody would be pretty

disappointed in me.

Now bring in the members of our jury.

Brendan, Tyson, Sierra, Debbie, Coach, and Taj voted

out at the last tribal council.

Well, JT, you have certainly earned your way into this spot, winning the last.

three individual immunity challenges now you have probably the biggest decision

in this game who you're going to take with you to the final vote tomorrow

at tribal council aaron i'm guessing you made a case today what do you say to jt

what's your pitch we sat down we talked about votes plain and simple if the two

of us go you can probably count on this vote this vote this vote this vote i

might get this one in this one and And if you take Steven, it could very likely

be very close. He might be able to beat you. So you pitched a case that you can

beat me. I want to make it to the end, and you'll win against me.

I will not go down without kicking and screaming about it, but he could very

well win against me. Probably has a better shot than against Steven.

Steven. You get some time with JT. What's your pitch?

Well, you know, JT and I have been partners in crime since day two of this

We have basically shared a brain and made every move of this game together.

And, you know, I think my pitch was more based on sort of our long -term

commitments to each other, what that would mean in the future for our

friendship and relationship, and just the promises we had made to each other.

So JT, two very different choices.

Loyalty. with Stephen, been together since day one, easy money against Aaron.

That's why I came here, to win.

So how does this work itself out in your head?

There's two different approaches, and I've just got to figure out which one's

more important to me.

I do feel like I could beat Aaron really easily compared to the matchup I would

have against Stephen in the jury votes, no doubt about it. So both of them make

good cases.

Which one's more important to me, come here and win the easy million dollars

you know?

state what's gotten me this far.

So the case to be made for bringing Steven is what?

I think if I was to bring the best to the end, out of us three, I'd be

Steven to the end.

And I think if I took Steven, I'd be sticking to my word.

So in a game that really is about outwitting everybody, why make the moral

choice to go with somebody you promised you'd bring to the end?

I got to think about would Steven have done the same thing had he won.

What's your gut tell you?

I don't know.

I'll never know. But I'd be sticking my neck out a lot if I took Steven to the

end because Steven's an excellent guy, just like I did. He made good

relationships in this game.

I do feel like taking Steven's a huge risk.

Can I interject?

Yeah. There's also a lot of added reasons why we should go to the end

Not least is this breakfast that we've talked about having on day 39 since day

two. And, you know, I've got to admit, when you weigh a million dollars versus

breakfast with your 39 -day friend, you're right. That's a tough one. Look,

point is that there's more to a relationship than a million dollars.

Let me ask you this, Stephen. He doesn't pick you.

He takes Aaron and he wins. You're not friends after this?

I mean, I think we would be friends. I don't think it would be the same kind of

friendship. The swears that he has made to me, like, defy all swears that I've

ever made. And look, I've made promises that I've broken in this game. There's

no question about that.

I've absolutely lied, deceived people, made promises that I've broken. You

I might be number one blindsider, or Jed is number one blindsider. I don't know.

But, I mean, up and down, to God, to himself, to his life. So, I mean, you

I'm hoping.

Aaron, you might be best off saying nothing at all.

Stephen might be making a better case for you than you can make for yourself.

Damn. True. I'll shut my mouth. All right.

I'm just observing. No, I mean, look, I'm obviously very nervous tonight. I

think we all are, except for JT.

I'm pretty damn nervous myself.

I think he's more nervous than we are.

So, JT, now make the case for bringing Aaron and saying, sorry, Stephen,

went only 38 days. It doesn't go the whole way.

You know, I'm not 100%, but I feel like I'd have a much better opportunity

beating Erin in jury votes because I do know that her tribe mates were trying to

get rid of her on, like, day nine.

That alone tells me that they would not really want to give her a million

dollars compared to me. So, you know, there's a huge, huge reason why I should

take Erin to the office.

Let's get to the vote.

Here's how it's going to work.

Aaron and Steven, you cannot vote for JT. You cannot vote for yourself.

Therefore, you will not vote, which means, JT, you're the only one voting.

you choose right, this time tomorrow night, you're a millionaire.

It's time to vote. Make your vote, JT.

I'll go get the vote.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be

asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the vote.

Fourteenth person voted out and the seventh and final member of our jury.

Aaron, bring me your torch.

Aaron, the tribe has spoken.

Well, JT and Steven, you've gone as far as you can go in this game.

The power now shifts to the jury.

Tomorrow night, they will decide which of the two of you they feel most

deserving of the title of sole survivor and the million -dollar check that goes

along with it. You have one more night in Brazil.

Enjoy it. I'll see you tomorrow night for your final tribal council.

Good night.

bit surprised, but I think like deep down, I definitely knew that that was

decision that JT was going to make.

I'm really proud of myself for as far as I've come.

It's really been life changing and I'm glad I was able to stick around as long

as I did.

I've been a little tired or something.

Day 39, dude.

We're freaking here.

I feel really great. It's day 39.

The sun's coming up. It's a beautiful morning, and I'm still here.

Stephen's here with me, just like we planned a long time ago, and it's kind

hard to believe, you know?

Dude, you and I are going to be friends for life.

I know, man.

hugely satisfying to be here with JT at the end. Since the beginning of the

game, we've been talking about Final 2.

And here we are, Final freaking 2, Day 39.

And regardless of what happens, regardless of who ultimately wins,

something that, you know, can't be taken away from us.

Dan, we talked about this on, like, Day 3. We said Final 2.

Dominated in our game.

Physically and socially.

Tremeb. Oh, my God.

eggs here in a bottle of bubbly. We are going to have a huge freaking breakfast.

The warrior and the wizard.

Day 39.

This is awesome.

I mean, this is like a cornucopia.

Eggs, sausages, bread.

I didn't want to eat jam, but me neither.

It was incredible.

So we spent the next couple of hours doing it right. We cooked everything

straight through.

Woo!

Cooked perfect.

This is the best meal.

We're not worrying about strategy.

JT and I have been talking about Day 39 together as the symbol of our

achievement together.

This was our reward for overcoming all of the obstacles in our way, and we got

to share it. Just us.

That's all. Let's shake it up. This stuff goes right to your head.

Well, this definitely deserves a toast. Yep. Final two. Final two.

Tastes like victory.

Not too bad.

This is a perfect ending.

First impressions. What was your first impression of me?

You looked like you were strong, but you looked very unathletic. And I thought

you were really religious.

I'm going to have to watch my mouth around him.

We have changed for the better.

You know, don't judge a book by its cover, obviously.

And don't draw a first impression outside of a country guy and a city guy.

know, when it comes down to it, we're a lot alike.

I thought you were like, just like a charmer. I just thought you were like a

gregarious, kind of charming.

Slick guy.

My first impression of JT was, you know, we're not going to get along, but I was

totally wrong about JT. He might be the good old boy from the South, but he's

ended up being the person whose mind has worked most like my own. And that, to

me, is really surprising, that in spite of our completely different backgrounds,

our minds seem to work totally in sync.

You got any blood?

Do it.

Steve and myself, we are the last two standing.

Going into the tribal council tonight, there's no doubt about it, I'm going to

have to lay all of our friendship stuff aside because whatever it takes to win a

million dollars, now I've got to do it. You know, I brought along competition.

That's what I wanted, and I got it.

But, man, I've never had any doubt from tribal council to the night.

When I go into tribal council tonight, I have a story to tell, and I'm going to

tell it. I'm going to argue my case.

I'm not going to go in defeated. I'm not going to be like, Chasey's awesome,

let's all give him a round of applause and a million bucks.

I'm going to fight for it.

I don't know which way the jury will vote, but I am not going to go in

fight.

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

Brendan, Tyson, Sierra, Deb,

Coach, Taj, and Aaron voted out as the last tribal council.

Stephen, JT, congratulations.

After 39 days, you have gone as far as you can go in this game.

The power now shifts to the jury. They hold your fate in their hand.

Tonight, the jury will decide which of the two of you they think is most worthy

of the title of sole survivor and the million dollars that goes along with it.

Here's how it's going to work. You will each get a chance to make an opening

statement. Plead your case, why you deserve to win.

The jury will then get their first chance to address you, and then we will

Let's get started.

Stephen, you're up. Opening statement.

I mean, it's obviously hard to talk.

you know, against JT now and to sort of compare myself to him since we have been

through so much together. But, you know, if you were making this decision based

on who was a better woodsman or who had the best and most charming southern

drawl, you know, you could have made this decision on day one and spared

everyone a lot of struggle and a lot of hunger.

And, you know, we, since the very early days, just sort of...

shared a brain when it came to strategy.

You know, we'd talk through everything, decide everything together, and I think

that's why we did so well, because we were able to work together. But I kind

want to focus maybe on not what we brought into the game, but what we'd

out of the game.

And, you know, I came into the game extremely uncomfortable in my own skin.

know, I'd never been camping before.

So I think my road has been a lot harder.

And that transformation has made me...

more comfortable, more self -reliant, and I think a better person. And I owe a

lot of that also to just all of you.

And, you know, as a testament to the struggles that we've all sort of faced

get here and the journey we've all had together, I hope you vote for me

JT.

It's going to be hard to follow up on that. I'm obviously not a Yale graduate

English major. My buddy Steven here.

I'm actually the first person in my family to ever graduate college.

But I don't think I want to pity vote because I worked very hard to get where

I'm at.

I did everything I possibly could to provide for everybody and every chance I

got. And most times that guy that puts things like that on the line, they're

voted out right off the bat, you know. And to do that and accept it and never

get a vote in this game, not once, you know, is a huge accomplishment for me.

And to make friends with you guys.

I mean, it was very hard to vote you guys out.

The way we picked who we voted off was the people that we thought were going to

vote us off.

And had we not gotten rid of you, you'd be sitting where I'm at today and I'd be

over there, there's no doubt about it.

But I do stick to my word, you know, I had a really easy opportunity to bring

Aaron, who I felt like, Aaron, you know, no offense, but I felt like I could

beat up here a lot easier, you know. Everyone loves Steven.

I do too, man. So I felt like he deserved to be here beside me.

Do I feel like he's outwitted, outplayed, and outlasted me?

I don't think so, but in you guys' hands now.

Thanks, Stephen. Thanks, JT.

All right, jury. In a moment, you're going to get your first chance to

Stephen and JT.

Give you a minute to think about what you want to say.

All right, jury. It's now your first chance to address Stephen and JT.

hoping to gather a little information to help you make a very big decision.

Who deserves to win this game? Who deserves the million dollars?

Brendan, let's get started.

You're up first.

Congratulations to you guys both. It's been fun watching you both play the

My first question is for Steven. You spent so much of your first argument

talking about your growth within the game. For me, I look at all the

sporting events and all the different games that we've all seen,

grows the most the reason that you win the game.

Can you think of anything?

I mean, the game of Survivor actually might be one of them. I mean, you know,

there's that wit outplay outlast. There is that outwit component.

I obviously had to focus more on that than outplay. So should you be

handicapped? No, no, but I'm saying for me to last this long has been a real

struggle. You know, JT is an amazing outdoorsman. I came in with none of

skills. I still persevered and will be leaving the game with many of them.

JT, you know, when you think about this idea of growth, in terms of deciding who

should actually come home with a million dollars. Do you think it's relevant?

Growth is irrelevant, really. I mean, that's something you can carry home with

you. That's something that's good for you personally, but obviously, you

You go to a football game, and just because it was harder for you to catch

ball when you catch it doesn't make it better than the person that already knew

how to catch it. So I do feel like I outplayed Steven.

And, you know, Steven hid in the shadows in some of the challenges. I had to

tell him, dude, you can do it. You have confidence in yourself. I mean, can I

have a rebuttal to what he just said? Sure. I love it. Let's go. Okay.

Hiding in the shadows is a legitimate strategy. I think we all know that. I

would think a guy that puts his neck out on the line should earn a little more

respect than someone that kind of floats under the radar.

Okay. Cool. Thank you.

Aaron, you're up.

Steven, I have seen you play three very specific alliances. The Jalapau Three,

the Exile Alliance, the Warrior Alliance.

But almost everyone in every one of those alliances is on the jury.

So should I just vote for JT?

Look, obviously this game involves a lot of creating a lot of dynamic structures

and then working within those structures to advance yourself as best as you can.

In terms of moving within those alliances, zigging when you have to zig,

when you have to zag to get yourself further, I think I did that really well.

you respect that aggressive style of play, I hope you vote for me. And if you

don't, I understand if you don't.

Okay.

JT.

There's been a lot of talk about taking the strength to the end.

Can you be really honest and tell me why Stephen is the best?

I felt like Stephen was the best because at the time he was the most honest

person with me.

No matter what we'd done, he was always there, and I felt like that Jalapal was

definitely the best. And when we moved over, Coach says, who's the next

strongest person? I said, out of everybody in Jalapal, Stephen is the

know, I could have left him out there, but I brought him along in the Power

Alliance. And out of the Power Alliance that I thought was the best, it would be

me and Stephen.

No doubt about it.

Thanks. Deb, you're up.

Hey, guys.

i want to start by telling you that i haven't decided as to who is going to

my vote for a million dollars jt one of the things that is most important to me

is honesty i immediately was drawn to you i was like this is a great guy great

pure heart as the game progressed all of a sudden i thought man i misjudged this

guy so was my first instinct right or is lying

And deception, you're M .O. And you just let me think that you're somebody else

in the beginning.

Debbie, I'll be honest with you.

When I come into this game, my mother told me, do not believe what everybody

tells you. You're going to have to lie to win this game.

A million dollars on the line.

I mean, you've done the same thing I did at the end of the game. You know, you

didn't go to a coach and say, hey, I'm fixing to vote you out, you know.

I had to do that in order to get here.

Okay, I appreciate that.

I appreciate that.

Stephen, my question is, if yesterday you had the immunity necklace on that JT

had, would JT be the one sitting next to you right now? I want an honest answer

to this question.

All right. I'll tell you honestly, and I want to speak honestly in answer to

every question tonight.

I don't know, and I never made that decision.

That's not good. No, stop.

I like you, Stephen. Okay. I do, but...

I don't want. I don't know. I've got to decide if I'm voting for you for a

million dollars.

You do know who would be sitting next to you, and I quite frankly feel like I

might too.

I need a clear answer from you, Stephen, and I need you to be honest.

That's what I'm basing my vote on is honesty.

I think it would be Aaron.

I hope I would have taken JT.

My fear is that I would have chosen Aaron if it had come down to it.

Thank you.

Okay, I appreciate that.

Good luck to both of you. I'll listen the rest of the evening, and my vote's

still out there.

Thank you. Thanks, Deb.

Coach, you're up.

Last two remnants of the Power Alliance.

Makes me a little bit proud to see the warrior and the wizard up here.

A lot of unanswered questions.

You know, I had a lot of philosophies coming into this game. One of them was,

iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

So keep that in mind, and we'll start with you, JT.

Honesty and integrity.

Early on, it's easy to keep that.

Late in the game, when it counts, is what I want to hear examples.

And then the second part of that is being the noble warrior.

putting others in front of yourself while being ferocious on the

So give me examples of honesty late in the game when it counts and also being

that noble warrior.

Coach, there was times towards the end of the game where I couldn't tell you

everything that was going on.

But when I made a promise to you, like the one I made after the last challenge

we had, I said, I promise you I'm voting for Aaron. I knew you were going home

that night.

But there was no way I was going to vote for you, Coach, because you and I and

Stephen could have been sitting here.

I'd have felt comfortable taking you because I knew you'd have taken me to

final two.

You know, I thought Stephen would.

But, you know, I just found out otherwise.

I said I would take the strongest that was left to the end, and I could have

took the easy million dollars there.

I risked a million dollars in order to keep my word to you and keep my word to

Stephen. Bring the strongest that was left to the end. I may be that dumb

Nick has morals with millions, you know. And as far as being a warrior, I

battled everything I'd done 100%, no matter what.

And I never give up in anything I do.

Okay, I'm going to move to Stephen. Same question, honor and integrity and being

a warrior.

All right, I think that, I mean, in terms of honor and integrity, this may

perverse, but I voted for every single one of you. I never took the weasel way

out. And JT knew you were getting eliminated.

I'm not going to make that comparison. I'm sorry. I want to say that I did vote

for every one of you because I felt like if I was going to try to take you out,

I was going to bear the moral burden of that.

So whenever there was a vote, I absolutely wanted to write the person's

down. And in terms of being a noble warrior, I have yet to say anything

about JT tonight.

And I think that's a strong statement.

Okay.

Thanks, Coach.

Sierra, you're up.

Congratulations to both of you.

I had a question for Stephen tonight, and he pretty much already addressed all

of it, so I don't have any further questions for you. I've heard enough.

I still think you're a sweetheart, Stephen. And for JT, my question for you

what does taking the strongest really mean to you? Because you're standing

one of the weakest players I've ever seen. And when you had the choice to

Taj with you, you took another weak player,

Aaron.

So actually, you took the two weakest players with you. How do you admire that

and want to sit next to that?

Actually, I really feel like Stephen's a strong competitor. He won individual

immunity necklace and almost beat me in the final immunity challenge. And of the

stronger players that was left in the final four, I believe that Stephen was

strongest left.

You too think Stephen was the right thing, but you lost a lot of my respect

because... You could have been sitting here tonight with Tyson. You could have

been sitting here tonight with Brendan or Debbie. And that vote, if you would

have won, you would have been a stronger man because you were sitting next to a

strong competitor.

That just may be your downfall and the reason why you might not get a million

dollars tonight.

Thank you.

Tyson.

Dude. Good job, guys.

You both have talked about sharing a brain on all the strategy.

Actually, Steven said JT was an asset to him getting to the final.

JT, was Steven an asset for you in getting to the final as well, and why?

I think Steven did help me as far as keeping each other in check, but could I

it without him? I feel like I could have made this adventure without him, but I

don't think it would have been near as easy.

Steven, you want to reply to that?

I think JT and my partnership was unique.

I'm sorry that he...

devalues it like that, it hurts me a lot.

I mean, to say that, oh, yeah, it could be you or it could be someone else when

we work so well together, you know, that obviously, I don't think that's true. I

don't think that's true for either of us. I don't think it's true for him and

don't think it's true for me.

Do you think you've been sitting here and had someone else wanting you last

night?

That's a complicated question, right? Like, who's going to be, who is it? I

think Ann would have taken me. I think Taj would have taken me.

Okay. So, yeah.

We done on that?

Yeah. Okay.

Thanks, boy.

Thanks, Tyson.

Taj, finish us off.

Crushed.

Betrayed.

Extremely disappointed.

It's not so much that I'm on the jury right now. It's just the way I went to

jury. I just felt it was so unnecessary.

But that's the nature of the game.

So my first question, I guess, would be to JT.

You found it so hard to put Coach's name down on the paper. You don't want to

lie to him, but it seemed like it was effortless to put my name down on the

paper. Did you not think that it would be hard to lie to me?

Taj, there was nothing effortless about putting your name down. The hardest vote

I made in this game was voting you out.

Taj, I've stuck my neck out for you this whole game as well as you for me. We've

been like brother and sister. I mean, it was almost harder than my vote last

night.

And Stephen.

I saw things in you that I just, I didn't even recognize on the last two or

three days.

Especially you, because you, from like day one, was in my back pocket. We were

tight, at least I thought.

Was it so important to blindside me to get me out because was I that much of a

threat?

Alright, I guess I mean, the truth is, JT had been talking about taking you out

next for a while.

I had wanted to keep you around until three.

And part of that was because it would be a great statement for the Jalapau 3 to

end up, you know, facing this entire Timbera jury.

But JT was concerned that you were a tougher physical competitor to beat. I

nervous that you wouldn't take me and sort of gave in on the point. So that's

why I ended up agreeing to vote you out.

Taj, I'd like to add, he just made it sound like it was just my idea to take

out. That's not true.

That's not true at all.

And I'll tell him that any day of the week. He just made himself sound like,

know, he was the one protecting you.

That's not how it went down.

Well, I mean, to be fair then, let's air our laundry.

There have been other times when JT wanted to take you out and I talked him

of it. The first was in Jollipal. Because you had given us possession of

idol. JT thought we could eliminate you and safely have the idol. You told me

I've got the idol. She won't have the idol if we vote her out. You said, no,

no, that's not what happened. That is not what happened.

You know what? Let's neither here nor there.

That's fine.

There were times when I saved you and JT wanted to take you out.

That's fine. Thank you. Is this the same guy I brought with me?

Yeah. What are you? Oh, come on now. You've been slandering me all night and

this is the first time I ever took a shot at you.

But mine have been all accurate. And mine have been true. That is true as

Come on now.

Our friendship means more to me than winning does.

She's a broad air.

I never made that decision in my heart.

I mean, you can believe me or you can, you know, it's fine.

I just feel like a fool, man.

Oh, come on now. I mean, look, whatever.

All right.

Jury, some great questions.

some very revealing answers you now hopefully have enough information to

million dollar decision i'm going to give you a moment to think about that

big vote

All right, jury, you have had your chance to address Stephen and JT.

Now it is time to make a very big vote. Tonight you are voting for a winner. The

name you write down is the name of the person you think is most deserving of

title of sole survivor and the million -dollar check that goes along with it.

For the last time, it is time to vote.

Brendan, you're up.

I am a woman of my word.

You should try to be a man the same way.

For the last time, I'll go tally the votes.

Thank

you

all for a great season of Survivor. I will see you back in New York City for

reading of the votes.

Glad to have you guys here.

All right, have a seat.

Good live audience tonight. I like it.

I love you too.

All right, jury, nice job.

Steven, JT, great job.

This is a hard...

game to play. 39 days in the middle of nowhere, stuck with people you don't

that you may like, may not like, in a game that is physically, emotionally,

mentally taxing. 24 hours a day is no small feat. The winner of this game

deserves the million dollars.

We got people that want JT. We got people that want Steven. Let's get to

There are seven votes in here. Tonight, you want to see your name. This is the

Plus, why did everybody dislike Sierra so much? And finally, Coach.

I offered him a lie detector test. Find out if he took it. It's the Survivor

Coke and Cheese reunion show. Goodbye.

I need to just be here.
