Previously on Survive.

Both tribes were hammered hard by wind and rain.

I have never in my life been this cold had my hands been destroyed and my feet

looked so miserable.

But with their huge lead in numbers and reward, Galoo still had

plenty of reason to celebrate.

After I finish this, I'll take the whole team by myself.

The only storm Galoo couldn't weather was Shambo.

Shambo's just a complete Gilligan who just messes things up all the time.

On her second visit to the Foa Foa tribe, it became clear these were

real friends.

I am really, really happy to be over here with Foa Foa. Russell, on the other

hand, had no friends, only targets.

Marissa threatened me. Betsy threatened me. Each time somebody threatened me.

They going home. And when Liz confronted Russell. You were lying to me. I'm

telling you the truth and you tell me I'm not honest. She became next on his

list. But after Liz's strong effort in another loss.

Dalu wins immunity.

Russell put his vendetta against her on the back burner in order to jettison the

tribe's weakest member, Ashley.

And it's because of me you're going home.

I'm out here playing for one million dollars. You never trust me.

With only five foa foa left, Liz needs a miracle to save herself from Russell's

cruel intentions, assuming they can all survive the conditions.

14 are left. Who will be voted out tonight?

It's been day 10.

It's day 15 now.

We're getting soaked at night.

It's cold.

So it's been pretty bad for the last several nights.

And I'll be honest, like, there was some envy last night when Ashley went home.

There was a little tinge of jealousy there. I was like, oh, man, you know?

I really think we got another two days or three days.

I used

to watch this cartoon when I was growing up called Captain Planet.

And there's always that one guy with the ring heart.

And we always make fun of him, like, what is heart? Everybody else gets a

element, you get heart.

And I really wish I had that heart ring right now, because I'm tired, I'm really

hungry, and I'm sitting here trying to battle what seems to be a battle that

fate just doesn't want us to win.

Yeah.

Not bad.

Not bad.

Samantha.

It takes seven days and seven nights of rain.

But once Earth quits, I'll take it.

Hell yeah, I'm having fun.

I'm out in the rain.

This is how I want to speak.

That sunny days we had for nine days, I was like, man, this is too pretty.

I take my family here. I want to be somewhere where I can't take my family,

where it's miserable.

Good job, man.

I'm so freaking cold right now.

I'm freezing.

Come on, man. You can take this.

That's a little water.

This is being right.

They're going to be soaking wet whether it stops raining or not stops raining.

Tonight, they're going to be wet.

This is really no big deal.

Matter of fact, this makes me stronger.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh, man, we know that there's been five days straight rain.

It's raining,

people are miserable, spirits are down, and could all be alleviated had

Russell gotten us that tarp.

But the way the game goes sometimes, you know, one person is elected to make

decisions for the group.

Sometimes it puts you in a worse position than you would have been if you

making those decisions for yourself.

Without working on the fire while every single one of us was huddled up, trying

to stay warm, just trying to keep sane, and he's out there just busting his

butt. For me to see that, you know, it's awesome to see him push himself, but

also, like, you know, it's great that you're out there doing it, but at the

time, like, no one expects you to do that. You know, it might have been to a

point where it was a bit unnecessary and went a little bit too far.

You know what?

There's no reason.

He'd be sitting up here right now.

I'd rather be in a shelter, but sometimes you have to make some deposits

you need any withdrawals later on.

You know, the chief thing, counterbalance is to the negative, so

keep the fire burning. This is fine stock low.

Hopefully I'll be able to sell high later.

Fire looks good, though, huh?

Oh, just got to chill.

Hold on.

Oh, careful, careful, careful. Are you okay?

Here you go. Here you go.

Oh, good.

Oh, that's tough.

That's tough.

Russell's definitely got this, like, stubborn determination to do everything.

But truth is, like, the elements out here, like, it's going to break you

He's pushing himself too hard, and it's going to take its toll, you know?

I can go back out there. I just got to get my body temperature back up.

I probably look like some crazy person, but basically the spot actually is

pretty good cover.

I can kind of, with my body heat, kind of keep this corner a little bit warm.

The shelter has so many gaps in it that when it rains this hard, it just pours

right through.

I can't wear my clothes because they're all soaking wet.

So I'm just doing the best I can, just trying to stay semi -warm and out of the

rain.

Trying to get through this.

No good.

Nothing.

It's wet.

They want to get out. Where they all from? New York City?

Gotta stay dry.

Can't get my hair wet.

Man, that's crazy.

Well, you never know, man. They might all start sucking each other's thumbs

because they're just a bunch of babies.

That's why we lose the challenges, because they're lazy.

They give up. They start walking. They start, come on, two times.

Don't stop until you throw up and pass out something.

If you don't throw up after every freaking challenge, you didn't do your

That's how I think of it.

Now, it was freezing last night. Wet, cold.

It's time to do something about it today.

But they don't want to.

They want to sit there and suck on their thumbs.

So I don't know how to help them.

I don't think it's going to stop raining.

I had been in my hole for, you know, almost 26 straight hours of rain, and I

laying in the hole, and I was like, okay, I give in. We give in. We

your greatness. We understand your power.

And if you are kind to us, I promise we will speak of your mercy.

And less than 12 hours later, I wake up from my hole, and not only is it blue

skies, but the most beautiful rainbow you've ever seen.

It's as if Samoa said, that's all I wanted to hear, Eric.

Just know I'm the man. You are not. Now that we got that clear, enjoy yourself

for the next 24 days.

I'm so happy.

That's a nice sign, isn't it? A real nice sign. I don't think they have a

rainbow on both sides of that.

A rainbow. That is really, really nice to wake up to. I mean, getting a ray of

sunshine today was like, you talk about lifting spirits, you know, winning

challenges and rewards.

Nothing beat this morning.

There actually is a sky out there other than

just clouds.

Can you believe it?

Look, there's a blue sky out there.

I think going through a storm like this, I think it definitely brings the tribe

together because we weathered it all together.

Now that we're out, we know we got a task at hand and we're stronger than

I mean, we really are.

Come on in, guys.

Galoo, getting your first look at the new Foa Foa tribe.

Ashley voted out at the last tribal council.

All right, you guys ready to get to today's challenge?

Yes. For today's challenge, one person from each tribe will be strapped into a

large spear.

That person will then guide two blindfolded tribe maids as they push the

through a long course to a table maze.

The person inside the sphere will then guide the rest of their blindfolded

maids as they navigate a ball through a table maze to a finish line.

First tribe to get it right wins reward.

Want to know what you're playing for?

Yes. Pizza.

Hot piping pizza.

You guys have been enduring a lot of rain. A nice, hot pizza will go down

good, right? Yes, sir.

There's one twist.

Win or lose, both tribes, going to Tribal Council, both tribes will vote

somebody out tonight.

You'll enjoy the pizza tonight when the winning tribe sits in on the losing

tribe, Tribal Council.

Yeah. So not only will you see what is going on within the tribe, you will do

while enjoying pizza in front of them.

All right, Galoo, you have four extra members sitting four people out. Who's

going to sit out this challenge?

We're going to push. We're going to be able to push if you want to sit out.

Unless you want to. You know, I feel weaker as the days go on, but I'm the

leader. I got to go forward. I can't look back. And I'm playing the game.

Monica. Kelly.

Shambo.

Day. All right. You four take the ball on the bench. Everybody else give you a

minute to strategize. We'll get started.

For FOFO and navigating in the ball is Liz, Pushing, Russell, and Jason.

For Galoo, it's Laura in the ball.

Russell and Eric doing the pushing.

Here we go.

Survivors ready.

Go. Go, go, go, go, go. Keep going, keep going. Go, go, go, go, go. Keep going.

A little off to a good start.

Okay, left, left, left. To your left. There you go. Good, good, good. Go. Keep

going. They're behind us.

Straight, straight, straight.

And time.

Go, go, go, go, go. Right, right, go.

Ball, ball. Pushing their ball right into Eric.

They're on top of Eric.

4 -4 trying to sneak around the right.

Liz does it. 4 -4 now in the lead.

4 -4 now off course.

Galoo now back in the lead.

Laura has Russell and Eric doing a great job.

Galoo right into the tree.

4 -4 now trying to go around him again.

Now forward.

Side by side.

Fall forward now in the lead.

Russell, come to the side, Russell.

This way?

Russell, no, no, no, no, Eric, stop. No, no, no, no, stop. One short turn.

Perfect. Now swing it home. We're all the way there. Fall forward very close.

Galoo, stop.

Come on, Galoo.

Laura, direct them, Laura. We can't hear you. Go, go, push, push.

Russell is exhausted. Go, go, Russell, push.

I'm pushing.

There you go. One more. Pull. Okay, now you have to pull.

You're good. Now you've got to orient Liz so she can see.

Upright. Yeah, pull up.

Pull up. Who is me?

Russell, harder.

Russell, Eric, and Laura still struggling to get to the finish.

Okay,

now get into your position. Liz, happy where she is. Go, go, go, go, go.

Keep going.

Lou is very close now.

Lou has their ball in the right spot. Eric gets crushed.

It's your spot.

Lou put Laura in great position. No extra orientation needed.

Left, left, left, left, left, left, left.

Left, left, left, left, left, left.

Hold on.

Russell. Russell. Russell.

Laura trying to get Russell on the course. He is exhausted.

No idea where he's at right now.

Go to your right. Go to your right. Okay, right there. Round the handle.

Make it a case down. Push your hands down. Straight down. Straight down.

Now how's a bit of a lead on the table made?

Brett down.

Brett down.

John up.

The ball is right in the middle.

Don't move!

Stop moving! Stop moving!

Russell,

get off the table.

Russell!

Russell,

are you with me?

Hold up, hold up, hold up. Everybody hold up. Medical.

Medical.

Hold where you are.

Everybody hold where you are.

Hold it, hold it, hold it. Hold it right here. Hold right where you are.

I'm good.

He was out. He was definitely out.

Yeah, yeah, take over.

Russell,

can you hear me?

Come on, Russ. Russ, talk to me.

Can someone get me that life pack, Danielle? Can you get the life pack?

Russell passed out during the challenge. I mean, I saw him stumbling around,

staggering, and I figured it was because he's blindfolded. I couldn't figure out

exactly what was going on. I should have guessed he passed out.

Russell, can you hear me?

I'm good. Let's go.

Let's go.

No, you passed out for a minute.

You went with it for a second.

Just relax and let them do what they're doing.

Everybody, you can take off your blindfold.

The blood pressure's really low too, right?

So have a listen to your heart there.

I'm cool.

There's a little wind there from pushing the bar, but I'm good.

You just need to relax just for a little while, okay?

Ramona, what's the update?

His blood pressure's even lower than Mike's was.

If we stood him up now, he'd just black out and collapse again.

All right, here's what's going to happen. I'm going to make a call right

which is this challenge is over.

Neither tribe wins reward.

Both tribes will go to tribal council tonight. Both tribes will vote somebody

out tonight.

You're going to both head back to camp.

We'll stay here and monitor Russell.

If he's able to return to the game, you'll see him at Tribal Council.

Follow up, follow up. Grab your stuff, head on out.

Do it better, Russell.

All right, glue, grab your stuff, head back to camp.

We'll be waiting for you, Russell. Either way, we'll see you tonight at

Council. Hang tight, Chief.

If he comes back, I will be shocked.

I'll be happy, but I'll be shocked.

I think Russell's okay.

No. You don't think he'll come back?

No.

But I'm not a doctor.

Everyone's concerned about Russell.

For Russell to go down the way he did today, it shows you how tough this game

is. No one has any experience with this level of dehydration. No one has any

experience with the level of malnutrition that we go through.

And a guy like Russell gives you everything he's got and more every

and then he comes back and he's a workhorse, and his body failed him

it's so unfortunate.

I'm about to make a break at the filter.

Our leader's not here.

And that's a big hit to take.

Kind of surreal. We're kind of just not really knowing really what to do. We're

used to round and saying, okay, give us our game plan.

But you can't let these emotional things distract you too much out of the game.

You have to keep your focus.

We still are playing the game. We're still thinking about the next person

going to go.

I know my heart is really heavy for Russell.

I just hope that he's okay.

All right. We'll try and sit him up. Sounds good.

All right.

I just want you to sit up from where you are just to there.

Any head spins there?

Little light -headed.

Little light -headed?

Okay.

So exactly like that. I'm going to take your blood pressure again straight away

and see what change we've got.

Russ, are you okay?

Russ? Russ? Russ? Just lie down, Russ. Come on, Russ.

Russ? Russ?

Russ, are you with us? Lie down.

Russ? Russ?

Russ, talk to me.

Russ, talk to me.

Russell, Russell, wake up, mate. Wake up.

Yes. Do you remember what just happened?

His heart rate was 97 when we sat him up, and now it's 68.

And it dropped like that.

Don't feel comfortable.

Not with his heart doing what it's doing.

Just so you're clear on what's happening is we're going to have to pull you out

of the game.

There's no question to all of us watching, brother, that you are not

Come on, come on.

Russell, we've hung in there as long as we can. You are not doing well. I just

watched your heart rate plummet.

My family depends on me to be the strong one.

Is this how you want this to end?

No, no.

It's frustrating to be pulled out of a game you wanted to be a part of for so

long. You were in great shape. You were the leader of a tribe that was

dominating. You were no sign that you were going home anytime soon.

You pushed and pushed and pushed your body until your body said, Enough.

There's nothing about that that is a quitter.

Nothing. But I'll just be hydrated.

I'm not... But you're not recovering fast enough. You need help. And if you

don't, you're going to be worse.

Russell, I watched you black out in front of me two times.

There's no way you could have stayed in this game.

I'm going to leave you alone and stop talking.

I feel bittersweet because we were close to winning and then Big Russell had his

medical accident.

But when Jeff said that we still had to go to tribal council regardless of who

won the challenge, it was surprising and, you know, a little upsetting

none of us want to go back there. We were just there.

I have a fair sense of what's going on. There's five of us. We're, again, one

big family. Natalie and I, we both looked at each other and said, it's

be one of us, and it will be. I mean, at this point, we need to continue to win,

and it doesn't make sense to vote out one of the guys.

My gut tells me maybe I'll stick around because I'm just competitively stronger,

but my fate and Natalie's fate rests in the three guys in our tribe.

Your vote's very simple tonight.

What is it?

Liz. Okay.

Well, you don't have to talk about it. And I'm trying my best right now.

Because, you know, you and Liz are the two names, of course.

For sure, we need that.

So, uh...

Because I'm putting Liz, you're putting Liz. I know I can talk Nick into putting

Liz no matter what.

I mean, no, she already talked. We know that's pretty simple. I'm voting for her

and she's voting for me.

Figuring out how we have all the bad luck.

How what?

How we have all the bad luck.

I'd like to stay if it's possible.

Oh, Natalie and I are...

Figured out. I'd be one of them.

I have no idea.

Every time that

we come close to something good, it kind of gets taken away. So winning today

would have been our revenge.

You know, they would have had to watch us eat and, you know, understand how we

felt. And we were winning.

the most disheartening is not necessarily the losses, but just the

that keep happening every time you think you have something good to go bad.

And, you know, I really hope Russell's okay. I mean, that clearly is the

concern. I agree with the decision to cancel the challenge and all that stuff.

It just kind of sucks that when you finally feel like you're getting in a

and going someplace, it's like, no, sorry.

Do you think we would have won that?

I think we were winning, but lost.

Just wondering.

With all the stars seeming to be aligned against us, how many of us actually

have a shot at getting real far, you know?

This whole tribe could be done by day 21, the rate we're going.

I think it can be done.

I think it can be done.

I'll have people flip over there.

I have a feeling that Shambo's going to be gunning for me, and so I want to be

sure that you have my back. Hold on.

Don't talk, don't talk.

They were all over it, so they're probably up here in the grass.

Yeah.

If we were going to tribal council right now, Shambo's going, 100%. This is a

medium.

From day one, she's never really gelled with the tribe, and she's been over to

the other tribe.

None of us have.

And so when we merged, she could very easily swap sides.

What's the skinny baby?

We're voting somebody off tonight.

I don't know.

Honestly, who should go home?

I don't know.

I honestly didn't think we'd come to a second tribal.

I don't know. Ever?

I mean, I thought we'd go to the merge first.

See, I'm just asking you guys to not write my name down today.

I mean, I started the fire the first eight days we were here.

Yeah. Chief and I collected 100 % of the firewood the first eight days we were

here. I have been a good competitor, an honest competitor, a fair competitor.

I have not lied to anyone in this game. That's fine, but despite the fact my

name got written down twice, the only person here that wrote it down last

was you.

So you're writing my name down tonight?

I don't know if I'm writing your name down. I can't guarantee you anything.

Who made fire for you the first eight days you were here, Monica?

Who kept you warm and dry and safe?

Who didn't write my name down? Everyone else in this tribe except for you.

The number one reason for voting off Shambo for me is the fact that she wrote

name down last time.

And you've got to take your enemy out the minute you can.

And right now seems like an opportune moment.

As far as weak girls go, who's the weakest girl? Monica.

Totally. Right?

Far enough.

Yeah. And I'm sorry, as much as people like to talk to Shambo, we would not

won the fishing gear in that first immunity and started this whole ball

without her. And she poses no threat to anybody.

Exactly. No threat.

Exactly. She does not have the power, the manipulative power that a War of

Monica tag team or a War of Monica Soul have.

Voting Shambo off doesn't do anything beneficial for any of us.

Monica needs to go for several reasons.

One, Monica and Laura have this mother -daughter, sister -sister relationship.

Post -merge, that's going to be dangerous.

One of the two of them needs to go while we still have a chance to get them.

Laura will be severely weakened without Monica.

And Monica, I think, is the clear move because Monica doesn't help us win

challenges at all.

Is there a better move than that?

Because I can't think of that.

This is not a bad plan.

So it's me.

You, Brett, Dave.

It makes four.

Either Coach or Shambo come back. We have numbers.

Game over.

No one flips.

Who else out here hasn't lied but me? No one.

Don't vote me off tonight.

Yeah, I know that about you, Sam, and I know that your effort speaks for itself.

Obviously it doesn't if you're not telling me you're not writing my name

Just because I'm not telling you I'm not writing your name down doesn't mean I'm

not writing your name down. Okay.

Shambo is on a very need -to -know basis.

Us four guys, Dave, Brett, and John, we're pretty good about keeping the plan

within the four of us. We're not going to be telling her anything more than

she needs to know.

So where are you at tonight?

What are your thoughts? Eric, if you were Shambo, who would you vote for

tonight? Yeah.

Not me.

Not you.

If I was Shambo, I would probably stay consistent.

Who?

I'd stay consistent.

Meaning who you voted for last time is probably your best bet. You would stay

consistent.

If I was Shambo.

What if you were John?

I would follow the lead, as in...

Shambo is the leader. Really?

And if you were Eric, who would you vote for?

I'd vote for Mike.

Really?

Who are you voting for, Shambo? Do you get what this is about yet? Yeah, I do.

Brent's down with it? He is.

Okay, good. He's down with it. And that's a wrap.

Okay, cool. Sham, you gotta lock it up.

Lock it up. No worries.

If that's what you want from me, that's what you got. And don't even... Melanie

said to not lock it up.

Well, this is the first 13 people at tribal council.

All right, let me give everybody an update.

Russell was pulled from the game.

After you guys left, the doctors continued to monitor his blood pressure.

pressure was steady.

Two, three minutes in, out of nowhere, his heart rate dropped like that.

He blacked out again, went down on his back. At that point, there was... No

question he needed to be pulled from the game.

It was the scariest moment I've ever had on this show.

19 seasons I have never been more afraid in my life of how bad things were.

Russell was in terrible shape.

So the update now is that he is in very good hands, being monitored, doing fine.

There was no way he could have come back into the game.

Shambo, what's your reaction to hearing that he's no longer in the game?

I feel really sad that that's how he went out because you see this guy with

amazing heart and spirit bigger than life.

So, I mean, it's terribly sad.

Russell, on one hand, that's a break for Fala Fala.

Yeah, he was definitely the strongest on their tribe, but I just don't like the

fact that that's how he went out, you know.

And if I was going to beat them, I don't want to beat them like that.

Dave, what does it say about this game when you're watching not only somebody

you're on a tribe with that you're also competing against, but just another

human being going through this crisis?

Well, you know, it's definitely an eye -opener for me.

And you get out here and it's like a whole different level that I did not

expect. It's been raining for days. We haven't been dry for more than an hour.

It's pretty intense.

Easily the hardest thing I've ever done. And I've done a couple of hard things

in my life.

Eric. This has been 15 of the toughest days I've seen any group go through.

I spent 22 hours in the bottom of a tree trunk.

And with 22 hours, the inability to sleep, you prayed about anything that

can think of. Are you literally praying?

I prayed to God. I prayed to Samoa. I prayed to, I don't know. I feel like I'm

in solitary confinement for a crime I didn't commit. And that is not anything

that was advertised.

Shamba, what is it that keeps you from saying, I'm going to quit?

I'm the 45 -year -old lady here that will not quit.

And I have been, like Eric, shivering and praying.

Dear God, this is Shannon from Renton. Please, please, please let the sun

And as we sit here, it is starting to pour once again.

Yep.

You know, it's not just the misery that the rain brings, but it's the constant

fear, the constant torture that it's not going to stop. And every minute, you're

terrified.

Dave, first time we've had everybody here together.

What's the status of the game right now?

Right now, it appears, you know, just based on numbers, that Galoo's ahead.

And I don't know how their spirits are, but they haven't had quite the substance

that we have. And I know that our spirits, in spite of the rain, are...

Pretty high.

Russell. Dave thinks Gallu's winning right now. Not so good over here at 4

The attitude at 4 -4 is fine.

And I think they're going to be shocked in the next couple of challenges because

we can come back and we can even up them numbers.

Then it'll be a different story then.

Mick, does today's challenge, even though we didn't finish it, feel like a

victory for 4 -4?

Yeah, absolutely.

I mean, we have to take this as a win.

We feel like that at that point we were ahead.

And so we'd like to think that it would have played out and we would have won.

Eric, got to concern you a little bit.

This group of five believe they won today's challenge.

Well, they had a big win a few challenges ago. We came back and we

again. And now today they got a high and that's supposed to...

make us nervous about a momentum shift? I don't think so.

All right, let's get to the topic of the vote.

Due to the unprecedented nature of today's event, in which for the first

ever we did not complete a challenge, there will be no tribal council vote

tonight.

Nobody going home.

Galoo, you're not voting anybody out?

FOA, FOA, you will not vote anybody out.

I'm seeing a lot of mixed reactions. Some happy people and some jaws that are

hitting the floor.

Eric, is this good news?

We lost a guy today. So whether we're voting or not voting, we're down

So let's stop the bleeding at one.

Russell, you guys would be down to four if you voted someone out tonight. I

think it's... The best news I heard all day, because right now, us five, we're

the strongest that we've ever been this whole game.

So now, if they beat us fair and square, then we'll send somebody home.

But I really believe that the table's about to turn, and I'm going to give 110

that it does.

So I'm going to go all out.

Eric, with every comment from Thoa Thoa about bring it, you're getting more and

more forward.

Let's line it up, and let's do a challenge right now.

You know, because that's what Russ would do.

He'd be saying, are you kidding me? There's five of them over there, and

are eight of us over here.

I don't know if there's that emotion in me that comes up, but every bead of

sweat that he put into everything he ever did, we're bringing that to you.

We will bring that every day, every channel.

Welcome it.

Well, it is clear that the events of today have only intensified the rivalry

between these two tribes.

Foa Foa believes they got a moral victory today, and now they can turn

around. And Galoo believing even though we lost Russell, his spirit is still

with us, and we will continue to dominate this game.

We're in store for a great finish. There is one order of business.

Galoo, you are now without a leader. Somebody come grab this. When you get

to camp, find a new leader.

That concludes things for tonight.

Bow, bow. Grab your torches. Head back to camp.

Galoo, grab your torches.

Head back to camp. Good night.

Being taken out of the game for medical reasons is the worst thing I've ever

felt in my life.

One, two, three, lift.

I played every minute to win this game.

And to have my body fail me is utterly demoralizing.

But even though it pains me to not be in it, to do it and fail is

better than to never try.

Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.

Next time on Survivor. At Galoo, the guys make Shambo one of their own. The

is to see it. The only strategic drawback is that Shambo is so dim that

could screw up our plan.

And a ruffle seed gets planted in the other tribe.

What I have to do now is work my Houdini magic. What are we going to do? Go to

the final two, the two of us? Final two.

I'm really ashamed that, you know, I'm not in the game anymore, and I'm angry

because I'm a fighter, but at the same time I have to be realistic because I

have to get well because I have an even bigger job to do, one that I love, one

that I cherish every day, and that's being a husband to my wife and father to

child.
