>> Jeff: PREVIOUSLY ON "SURVIVOR," AFTER THE MERGE, THE

MAJORITY ALLIANCE WAS RUNNING THE GAME.

>> WE NEED A HEALER GONE.

>> Jeff: BUT TRUST CAME INTO QUESTION.

>> I THOUGHT I TRUSTED RYAN, MAN.

>> Jeff: AND CRACKS BEGAN TO FORM.

>> PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO FEEL STEAM ROLLED BY YOU.

>> NO, NO, THEY ARE NOT.

>> AT THIS WAY IT'S BEN'S WAY OR THE HIGHWAY.

>> Jeff: AT TRIBAL COUNCIL, MIKE TRIED TO CHANGE THE GAME.

>> TRUST ME.

>> Jeff: HE CAUSED CHAOS.

>> I THINK YOU GUYS ARE SHOWING POOR MORAL CHARACTER HERE.

>> DO YOU WANT THE BURY YOURSELF?

YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO OPEN YOUR MOUTH.

>> I'M PLAYING IT FOR ME.

>> Jeff: IN THE END, THE MAJORITY STUCK TOGETHER AND SENT

COLE TO THE JURY.

COLE, THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN.

>> GOOD LUCK, GUYS.

>> Jeff: NINE ARE LEFT.

WHO WILL BE VOTED OUT TONIGHT?

>> MIKE, THAT WAS HILARIOUS.

THANK YOU FOR NOT INFORMING ME.

>> MY PLEASURE.

I HAD TO DO SOMETHING TO SPICE IT UP A LITTLE BIT.

>> SPICE IT UP A LITTLE BIT, BUT THAT WAS A STUPID REASON TO PLAY

YOUR IDOL, THOUGH.

>> TRIBAL COUNCIL WAS CRAZY AND FUN.

THE SEVEN ACCOMPLISHED EXACTLY WHAT THEY NEEDED TO ACCOMPLISH,

WHICH WAS MAINLY VOTE OUT COLE.

BUT THE BEST PART OF THE NIGHT WAS WHEN OUT OF LEFT FIELD

DR. MIKE PLAYED AN IDOL, FOR IN REASON AT ALL.

IT WAS ICING ON THE CAKE.

SO AT THIS POINT, WE HAVE TWO HEALERS LEFT TO VOTE OUT.

JOE AND MIKE ARE DEAD MEN WALKING.

>> IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

>> I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.

>> TELL ME LATER.

>> I'LL TELL YOU LATER.

I HAD TO PLAY MY IDOL FOR TWO REASONS.

ONE, BECAUSE I'M NOT GOING TO BE THAT IDIOT THAT GOES HOME WITH

AN IDOL IN HIS POCKET.

BUT I ALSO KNEW THERE WAS CHANCE THAT THEY MIGHT WRITE JOE

INSTEAD OF ME, AND I NEED HIM WITH ME.

SO I HAD THE MAKE SURE THEY WERE GOING TO WRITE MY NAME.

NOW MY VOTE COMES ALONG WITH ANOTHER VOTE, SO WE'RE A BLOC OF

TWO, VERSUS COLE STAYING HERE, I'M STILL JUST A BLOC OF ONE.

SO MAKE SURE YOU'RE STILL HERE.

>> I APPRECIATE THAT, BUT...

>> NICE TRY, LADY LIBERTY.

>> IT DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE.

>> AT TRIBAL MAKE JUST EXPLODED.

HE WAS THE VILLAIN, WHICH I WAS UPSET BECAUSE THAT'S MY ROLE,

THAT'S MY LANE.

BUT HE DEFINITELY MESSED UP WITH THE IDOL, BECAUSE NO ONE KNEW HE

HAD AN IDOL, SO WE COULD HAVE USED IT DOWN THE ROAD FOR A

BLIND SIDE FOR HIM AND I TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE GAME.

NOW WE'RE JUST TWO SWING VOTES WITH NO ALLIANCE, NO POWER, AND

NO IDOL.

>> IF YOU TRY TO DO SOMETHING AS A TEAM THING, YOU HAVE TO LIKE

TALK IT OUT FIRST.

LET ME KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

I'M OVER THERE LIKE, WHAT?

>> IT APPEARS THAT I MIGHT HAVE PUT A TARGET ON MY BACK AFTER

THIS TRIBAL COUNCIL, BUT THE REALITY IS I ALREADY HAD A

TARGET ON MY BACK.

I NEEDED TO START PLAYING MY GAME, AND MY GAME IS I'M GOING

TO CONVINCE YOU SEVEN WHY YOU NEED TO CRACK.

>> NO, MAN.

>> WHERE DID MIKE GO?

>> HE'S LOOKING FOR ANOTHER IDOL.

>> EVERYBODY THINKS I'M THAT CRAZY DOCTOR, BUT I'M HERE TO

WIN THIS GAME.

I'M NOT HERE THE MAKE IT TO NINE OR TO EIGHT OR TO SEVEN.

THE SEVEN HAS THE BREAK UP AT SOME POINT.

NOW IS GOING TO BE THE TIME TO ACT SOME, YES, IT MIGHT APPEAR

I'M ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT NOW, BUT STAY TUNED.

I THINK IT'S ABOUT TO GET REALLY GOOD.

I THINK IT'S ABOUT TO GET REALLY GOOD.

>> Jeff: COME ON IN, GUYS.

ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GET TO TODAY'S REWARD CHALLENGE.

FOR TODAY'S CHALLENGE, YOU'RE GOING TO USE YOUR FEET ONLY.

ON MY GO YOU'LL RELEASE A ROPE THAT.

WILL DROP BLOCKS INTO A BIN.

YOU WILL THEN STACK THOSE BLOCKS IN A CIRCLE AND PLACE A FLAG IN

THE CENTER.

FIRST PERSON TO FINISH WINS REWARD.

WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PLAYING FOR?

>> YEAH.

>> SURE.

>> Jeff: YOU'LL BE TAKEN ON A SEA PLANE FOR AN AERIAL TOUR OF

THE SACRED ISLAND, TRULY ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN

FIJI.

YOU WILL THEN ENJOY CHEESEBURGERS.

>> OH.

>> Jeff: FRENCH FRIES.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> Jeff: ICE-COLD BEER.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> Jeff: I KNOW IT'S WORTH PLAYING FOR.

TAKE YOUR SPOTS.

WE'LL GET STARTED.

ALL RIGHT.

HERE WE GO.

FOR REWARD, SURVIVORS READY?

GO!

YOU ARE BAREFOOT USING ONLY YOUR FEET.

THE FIRST STEP IS TO UNTIE THAT ROPE, RELEASE THOSE PIECES.

EVERYBODY HAS THEIR BLOCKS RELEASED.

NOW YOU START BUILDING A FOUNDATION.

YOU'RE GOING TO RELY ON THAT TO GET YOU ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP.

ANOTHER METAPHOR FOR "SURVIVOR."

BUILDING FOUNDATIONS EVERY DAY, TRYING TO GET AN ALLIANCE THAT

YOU CAN TRUST, KNOWING IT COULD TOPPLE AT ANY MOMENT, WHICH WILL

HAPPEN OUT HERE.

LAUREN OFF TO A FAST START.

MIKE MAKING FAST WORK OF THIS.

ASHLEY GETTING SOME MOMENTUM GOING.

ONCE YOU GET THAT BOTTOM LEVEL, YOU START ON THAT SECOND LEVEL.

BUT YOU GOT TO KEEP IT STABLE, BECAUSE THERE IS A THIRD LEVEL.

AND THEN A FLAG.

LAUREN WORKING ON THAT SECOND LEVEL.

MIKE STARTING ON HIS SECOND LEVEL.

HERE GOES ASHLEY.

J.P. STARTING ON HIS SECOND LEVEL.

RIGHT NOW IT IS LAUREN IN THE LEAD.

MIKE RIGHT ON HER TAIL.

RYAN STILL WORKING ON THAT BOTTOM LEVEL.

BEN TAKING HIS TIME.

DEVON TAKING HIS TIME.

JOE TRYING THE STAY IN IT.

YOU NEVER EVER KNOW WHAT SKILLS WILL BE REQUIRED ON "SURVIVOR."

MIKE WITH ANOTHER PIECE.

MIKE NOW WORKING ON HIS THIRD LEVEL.

IT'S NOW MIKE IN THE LEAD.

LAUREN RIGHT NEXT TO HIM FEELING THAT PANIC.

YOU COULD BE SO CLOSE TO A CHEESEBURGER AND NOT TASTE IT IF

YOU DON'T WIN.

CHRISSY GETTING CLOSE TO FINISHING THAT SECOND LEVEL.

ASHLEY NOW WORKING ON THAT TOP LEVEL.

LAUREN WITH ANOTHER PIECE.

MIKE WITH ANOTHER PIECE.

AFTER A CRAZY TRIBAL COUNCIL, WHO KNOWS WHERE MIKE STANDS IN

THIS GAME.

REWARD WOULD BE NICE.

MIKE WITH ANOTHER PIECE.

HERE COMES ASHLEY WITH ANOTHER PIECE UP TOP.

CHRISSY NOW AT THE TOP ROW.

IT IS NOW MIKE, THEN LAUREN, ASHLEY, AND CHRISSY.

EVERYBODY HOPING MIKE WILL DROP AND OPEN THE DOOR, BUT MIKE HAS

GOT A RHYTHM, AND IT IS WORKING.

MIKE DOWN TO ONE PIECE LEFT.

MIKE PLACES HIS LAST PIECE ON THE TOP.

IF HE CAN GET IT TO STICK, A LOT OF ACTION WITH THOSE TOES.

IT'S THERE.

MIKE NOW GOING FOR THE FLAG.

LAUREN TRYING TO ADJUST.

ASHLEY PICKING UP THE PACE.

MIKE COULD WIN IT RIGHT HERE IF HE CAN GET THAT FLAG UP AND OVER

NO!

MIKE DROPS A PIECE.

GOT TO PUT THE FLAG BACK IN THE HOLE, GET THAT PIECE BACK IN

YOUR BIN, AND REPAIR IT.

THAT OPENS THE DOOR NOW.

ASHLEY CAN FEEL IT.

LAUREN CAN FEEL IT.

NOW IT IS LAUREN GOING FOR THE FLAG.

CAN SHE GET THAT LAST ELEMENT, A SKINNY LITTLE FLAG UP OVER THE

TOP AND INTO ITS SLOT?

LAUREN HOVERING.

HERE GOES MIKE TRYING AGAIN FOR THE FLAG.

LAUREN DOES IT!

LAUREN WINS INDIVIDUAL REWARD.

SECOND CHALLENGE WIN IN A ROW.

>> THERE YOU GO, LAUREN.

>> NICE JOB.

>> NICE JOB, LAUREN.

>> Jeff: LAUREN, COME ON OVER.

[APPLAUSE] >> FEELS GOOD.

>> Jeff: IT FEELS GOOD?

>> YEAH, IT FEELS REALLY GOOD.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT, LAUREN.

SO TRICKY PART OF THIS REWARD IS YOU'RE GOING TO BRING SOMEBODY

WITH YOU.

25 DAYS INTO THIS GAME, ALLIANCES HAVE BEEN ALL OVER THE

MAP, NEVER KNOW WHO YOU CAN TRUST, WHO ARE YOU BRINGING?

>> DEVON.

>> Jeff: DEVON, COME ON OVER.

[APPLAUSE] >> Jeff: THERE'S ROOM ON THAT

SEA PLANE FOR ANOTHER PERSON.

WHO ARE YOU GOING TO BRING?

>> BEN.

>> Jeff: BEN JOINS DEVON.

ONE LAST SEAT, ONE FINAL CHOICE, AND IN PICKING ONE PERSON TO

JOIN YOU, YOU SEND FIVE PEOPLE BACK TO CAMP FOR RICE AND

COCONUT AND EXTREME HEAT.

>> ASHLEY.

>> Jeff: DIDN'T EVEN HESITATE.

>> LOVE YOU.

>> Jeff: RYAN, DO YOU READ INTO THIS?

IS THIS "SURVIVOR" AS USUAL, SOMEBODY WINS AND THEY MAKE

THEIR MOVE?

>> NO, I DON'T READ INTO IT.

DEVON IS A BIG GUY, AND HE NEEDS THAT SUSTENANCE, AND BEN AND

ASHLEY HAVEN'T BEEN ON A REWARD, SO I SUPPORT LAUREN IN HER

DECISION.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT.

LAUREN, DEVON, BEN, ASHLEY, NICE AFTERNOON.

SEA PLANE, CHEESEBURGERS, FRIES.

GRAB YOUR STUFF AND HEAD OUT.

>> GOOD JOB, GUYS.

>> Jeff: J.P., RYAN, JOE, MIKE, CHRISSY, GOT NOTHING FOR

YOU.

GRAB YOUR STUFF.

HEAD BACK TO CAMP.

>> I PICKED THOSE PEOPLE FOR STRATEGIC REASONS.

THIS REWARD WOULD BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THE FUTURE

OF MY GAME TREMENDOUSLY.

THEY DO THINK THEY'RE A STRONG GROUP OF SEVEN, AND IT'S IN THE

A STRONG GROUP OF SEVEN.

IT'S GETTING READY TO BLOW UP.

>> OH, MAN.

>> THIS IS FASTER THAN ANY JET-SKI I'VE BEEN ON.

>> YOU CAN SIGH THE REEFS PERFECTLY.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> THAT'S OUR HOME OVER THERE.

>> IS THAT IT?

THAT'S IT.

>> OH, WOW.

>> BYE-BYE.

>> THERE'S PEOPLE.

>> JOE.

HA, HA.

>> IT'S VERY LOW.

MY WIFE WOULD BE MAD AT ME IF I WAS ON THAT THING.

I AM MAD.

THE REWARD CHALLENGE WAS MINE TO WIN, AND I LOST IT.

IT SUCKS.

AND NOW I'M STUCK ON THE BEACH WITH CHRISSY, RYAN, AND J.P.,

WHO ARE LITERALLY JUST BLINDED BY THE SEVEN.

THEY JUST WANT TO PLAY A COMFORTABLE GAME, LET'S GET JOE

AND MIKE OUT.

SO IT'S A DAY FOR JOE AND I TO STIR THINGS UP.

WE'RE LIKE SISKEL AND EBERT.

>> IT'S LIKE AN EENIE MEENIE MINEY MO SITUATION.

>> CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOR AND GET INTO ANOTHER FIGHT WITH CHRISSY.

>> MAYBE I'LL LEAVE WITH A BANG.

>> MIKE, YOU'RE IN RARE FORM THIS AFTERNOON.

>> MIKE, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO CALL OUR TABLE?

>> KIDS TABLE?

>> WHAT ARE WE GOING TO CALL IT?

I THINK WE SHOULD START OUR OWN.

>> THE COCOA NUTS.

IT DESCRIBES HIS DOMINICAN ROOTS, WHICH IS SLIGHTLY COCOA,

AND IT DESCRIBES MY UROLOGY.

>> WE'RE THE COCOA NUT.

>> I LOVE CHEESEBURGERS.

I'M ABSOLUTELY STARVING.

AND NOW I HAVE TO CONTINUE TO WIPE THE COCONUT COMEDY SHOW.

IT'S GETTING ANNOYING, BUT IT'S BEEN SO BENEFICIAL TO HAVE

PEOPLE LIKE MIKE AND JOE ON THE OUTSIDE WHO NOBODY WANT TO WORK

WITH, SO IT'S MAKING IT A LOT EASIER TO GET TO THAT SEVEN THAN

IT NORMALLY SHOULD BE IN A SEASON OF "SURVIVOR."

>> I DO THINK WE NEED TO GET JOE OUT NEXT TO AVOID ANY SORT OF

WEIRD... I THINK THAT IS BECAUSE HE'S A GOOD PLAYER.

>> I THINK SO, TOO.

>> SO WHO DO YOU THINK AFTER NEXT TWO?

>> IF I HAD TO DO IT RIGHT NOW, BEN SEVEN, LAUREN SIX, AND...

BEN'S GOT TO GO.

WE STILL HAVE TO GET OUT MIKE AND JOE, BUT ME AND CHRISSY ARE

LOOKING DOWN THE ROAD.

OUR FOCUS AT THIS POINT IS ON BEN HAS THE FIRST VOTE GOING

INTO THE SEVEN.

BEN'S A STRONG PLAYER.

HE'S GOING TO BE REALLY TOUGH THE BEAT IN THE END, AND IT'S SO

FUNNY, BEN'S THE ONE THAT'S SAYING, LET'S STICK WITH THE

SEVEN, STICK WITH THE SEVEN, YEAH, WE'RE STICKING WITH IT,

BUT YOU'RE GOING TO BE NUMBER SEVEN.

>> I AM BEING STUPID THAT THINKING THAT THE SEVEN OF US

WILL GET TO THE SEVEN?

>> I THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

>> I THINK IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, TOO.

MY INTUITION TELLS ME THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO IT.

>> 100%.

>> HEY, EVERYBODY.

>> BEAUTIFUL.

>> CHEERS.

>> BURGERS.

>> HEAVEN ON EARTH.

IT DIDN'T TAKE ME TWO SECONDS TO EAT THAT CHOOSEBURGER.

I DROPPED MUSTARD ON MY PANTS.

I'M THINKING, I AIN'T HAD A BATH IN 20-SOMETHING DAYS.

WHAT'S MUSTARD GOING TO HURT NOW?

THE WHOLE TIME I'M THINKING LET EVERYBODY EAT, FEEL GOOD, AND

THEN WE CAN START TALKING SERIOUS BUSINESS.

>> THANK YOU, LAUREN.

>> YES, THANK YOU, LAUREN.

>> YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'VE ALL WORKED REALLY HARD.

I HONESTLY, LIKE RIGHT NOW, WE'RE ALL HERE INDIVIDUALLY

PLAYING AGAINST EACH OTHER.

BUT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF PEOPLE TO GET CONTROL

OF THE GAME, AND CHRISSY, RYAN, AND J.P., THEY'RE FOOLING

THEMSELVES IF THEY THINK THEY'RE GOING TO KEEP THE SEVEN TOGETHER

FOREVER.

THIS IS PERFECT TIMING.

THIS IS WHY I PICKED YOU GUYS.

I THINK THIS IS A GOOD GROUP, YOU KNOW, AND I MEAN, YOU WOULD

BE HERO, HERO, HUSTLER, HUSTLER.

I'M GOING TO KEEP RIGHT ON HUSTLING.

SEVEN IS A GREAT NUMBER TO GET TO, BUT THAT SEVEN WILL NOT LAST

FOREVER.

AND IF YOU'RE STUPID ENOUGH TO THINK IT WILL LAST, SOMETHING IS

WRONG.

J.P., CHRISSY AND RYAN FEEL A LITTLE BIT TOO COMFORTABLE RIGHT

NOW.

SO TO ME IT'S THE PERFECT TIME TO BEAT THEM TO THE PUNCH AND

BREAK UP THE NUMBERS BEFORE IT BREAKS UP ON US.

LET'S GET ALL OUT IN THE OPEN, WHAT DO YOU KNOW WHAT, DO I

KNOW, WHAT DO YOU KNOW, AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

LET'S TAKE ALL THIS INFORMATION AND USE IT AGAINST THEM?

>> RYAN HAS AN IDOL.

RYAN HAS THE MERGE IDOL.

RYAN TOLD ME I WAS THE ONLY ONE HE WAS TELLING, AND HE TOLD ME

NOT TO TELL ANYONE, AND I HAVE TRUSTED RYAN.

>> I FOUND A SECRET ADVANTAGE, AND IT'S STILL IN PLAY.

OKAY.

AND WHAT IT IS IS BASICALLY I HAVE AN EXTRA VOTE.

>> DAMN.

>> THERE'S A LOT OF TELLING OF THINGS AND THIS GIRL HASN'T BEEN

TOLD ANYTHING.

>> LAUREN'S PLAN THE BREAK FROM THE SEVEN EARLY IS AN AWESOME

IDEA.

AND IF I WANT TO BE IN ON THIS STUFF AND REALLY BE THE ONE

MAKING DECISIONS AND NOT JUSTING WITH TOLD WHAT TO DO, THEN I

NEED TO STEP UP THE AGGRESSION.

I NEED TO STEP UP MY GAME PLAY.

>> THEY'RE NEVER GOING TO EXPECT BEN AND JOE TOGETHER.

IF YOU CAN PUT YOUR DIFFERENCES ASIDE AND YOU CAN PUT YOUR

DIFFERENCES ASIDE AND PLAY THE GAME THE WAY WE NEED TO GO AHEAD

AND PLAY IT, BECAUSE THIS IS NOT PERSONAL, THIS IS BUSINESS.

>> HERE'S WHERE THE TRICKY PART COMES IN.

>> WELL, THE TRICKY PART IS JOE AND MIKE NEED TO STICK AROUND

FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

>> IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LIVE WITH JOE.

>> I'M SICK OF BEING CALLED KING ARTHUR.

I'M SICK OF TRYING TO KEEP EVERYONE IN LINE AND STRAIGHT.

BUT RIGHT NOW IF I NEED TO KEEP JOE, I'LL DO IT.

>> WITH T WHOLE CIRCLE ROUNDTABLE, THAT'S GOING TO HURT

YOU.

THEY'RE GOING TO AIM FOR YOU RIGHT OFF THE BAT.

>> THAT'S WHY I'M ON BOARD.

LY RIDE TO THE END WITH YOU FOUR.

>> CAN WE SOLIDIFY THIS RIGHT NOW?

>> OVER A BEER.

>> WE CAN TAKE CONTROL OF THE GAME.

>> TO THE FINAL FOUR.

>> TO THE FINAL FOUR.

>> THIS IS AWESOME.

>> BEAUTIFUL.

I LOVE IT.

>> LAUREN HAS BEEN SURPRISING ME.

SHE CAME INTO THIS GAME TALKING NO STRATEGY, AND NOW I'M SEEING

THIS OTHER SIDE OF HER, AND SHE'S REALLY GOOD.

SHE'S LIKE AS GOOD AS ME.

AND I'M HAPPY SHE'S ON MY SIDE.

AND I THINK THIS PLAN IS GOING TO WORK.

THIS IS WHAT "SURVIVOR" IS ALL ABOUT.

THIS MOMENT.

>> ANYONE WANT ANY MORE BURGER PATTIES.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT CAN HAPPEN AT REWARDS.

>> OH.

OH, MY GOSH, GUYS.

THESE ARE LETTERS.

>> NO!

>> I GOT A LETTER FROM MY DAUGHTER, AND IT JUST SAID,

"DEAR MAMA, AND THAT WAS IT."

I LOST IT.

I AM A SINGLE MOTHER.

I HAVE TO FIGHT FOR EVERY TIME THAT I'VE GOTTEN.

AND IT'S A GOOD REMINDER THAT I HAVE TO MAKE BIG MOVES FOR HER.

THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF ME BEING HERE IS TO NOT GIVE UP ON

HER.

I'M NOT HERE JUST FOR MYSELF.

I'M HERE FOR HER AND FOR HER FUTURE.

IT'S NOT FOR ME.

>> THANK YOU, LAUREN.

>> YOU'RE WELCOME.

>> YEAH, THANK YOU.

>> AND FOR THOSE GUYS TO GET IT ALSO, I THINK IT MEANT A LOT TO

THEM, AND I THINK THAT IT ACTUALLY BROUGHT US CLOSER

TOGETHER.

SO WE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

>> I REALLY AM GLAD THAT I WON TODAY.

>> I AM, TOO.

>> I AM, TOO.

>> THIS BONDED US EVEN MORE THAN THAT CHEERS.

I'M IN THE WALKING AWAY FROM THIS.

>> THIS IS WHERE WE FLIP THE GAME.

BEAUTIFUL.

>> IT'S A START THE A NEW DAY.

WHAT BETTER WAY THE START THE DAY THAN HEARING FROM YOUR

FAMILY?

SO SITTING UP THERE WITH MY WIFE AND MY TWO KIDS, I KNOW IT'S A

LETTER, BUT YOU CAN HEAR HER TALKING THOSE WORDS, YOU KNOW?

AND WYATT WROTE ME A LETTER, TOO, AND HIS WRITING IS GETTING

BETTER.

AND I LOVE MY WIFE.

I LOVE HER TO DEATH.

SHE CHANGED MY LIFE.

SHE SAVED MY LIFE.

WHEN YOU GO THROUGH COMBAT AND YOU COME BACK, A LOT OF PEOPLE

HAVE A HARD TIME DOING IT, AND I QLOA HER THE WORLD.

SHE'S WHY I'M OUT HERE.

I'M HERE TO PLAY THE GAME.

MY FAMILY JUST GAVE ME THE GAS AND THE FUEL I NEED THE PLAY

THIS GAME.

>> OH, MY GOD.

OUT OF NOWHERE I SEE AN AX AND IT SAYS "DIG."

AT FIRST I THINK THERE'S AN IMMUNITY IDOL, BUT IT'S A CLUE

TO WHERE THE IMMUNITY IDOL IS SITTING.

I'VE BEEN LOOKING SINCE DAY ONE FOR AN IDOL.

I LOST IT.

NO WAY.

NO THE MARINE IN ME, WHEN THERE IS A MISSION OR A TASK TO BE

DONE, IT IS GO TIME.

RIGHT NOW I HAVE MAP.

I HAVE AN OBJECTIVE, AND I'M GOING TO GO GET THE JOB DONE.

MY MISSION NOW IS TO GET TO THIS IDOL.

YOU KNOW, I'M SWEEPING THE AREA LIKE I WOULD CLEARING A ROOM.

IT'S GOT TO BE RIGHT AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE.

YOU HAVE TO KEEP A KEEN YOU OUT FOR SOMETHING THAT LOOKS OUT OF

PLACE.

AND I HAVE TO FIND THIS, BUT YOU HAVE TO KEEP A CALM AND COOL

HEAD, THINK QUICKLY, BUT THINK CLEARLY.

A CLAY POT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOOK.

A BIG CLAY POT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HOOK.

A BIG CLAY POT IN THE MIDDLE OF A HOOK.

OH, MY GOSH.

THANK YOU, FAMILY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I FOUND AN IDOL ON "SURVIVOR."

I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN HAPPY IN MY ENTIRE LIFE TO WEAR A DARN

NECKLACE OF SHELLS.

HUGE.

HUGE.

AT THIS POINT THE SEVENTH BLOWING UP AND MY NAME HAS BEEN

THRUN AROUND.

I'M BEING CALLED KING ARTHUR.

SO I NEED THE IDOL.

AND I AIN'T TELLING NO ONE ABOUT IT, BECAUSE NOBODY AROUND HERE

CAN KEEP A DARN SECRET.

OH, MY GOSH.

THIS GETS ME ONE STEP CLOSER TO A MILLION.

OH, MY GOSH, I NEEDED THIS SO BAD.

AND I BELIEVE MY WIFE HELPED ME FIND THIS IDOL.

SO THANK YOU, HONEY, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU, AND THIS ONE IS FROM

YOU.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GET TO TODAY'S IMMUNITY CHALLENGE.

FIRST THINGS FIRST, LAUREN, GOT TO TAKE BACK THE NECKLACE.

THANK YOU.

ONCE AGAIN IMMUNITY IS BACK UP FOR GRABS.

FOR TODAY'S CHANG YOU'RE GOING TO BALANCE ON A TRIANGULAR

PLATFORM WITH YOUR FEET PERCHED ON VERY NARROW FOOTHOLDS.

AT REGULAR INTERVALS WE'LL MOVE UP MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT.

IF AT ANY POINT YOUR HANDS TOUCH THE STRUCTURE OR YOU FALL OFF,

YOU'RE OUT.

LAST PERSON LEFT STANDING WINS IMMUNITY, SAFE FROM THE VOTE.

LOSERS TRIBAL COUNCIL WILL SOMEBODY WILL BE THE TENTH

PERSON VOTED OUT AND BECOME THE THIRD MEMBER OF OUR JURY.

27 DAYS INTO THIS GAME, THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TALK ABOUT

ALLIANCES, A ROUNDTABLE, A SECURE SEVEN.

WELL, IF YOU FEEL REALLY SECURE WITH YOUR POSITION IN THE GAME

RIGHT NOW, I'M GOING TO OFFER YOU SOMETHING THAT MAY BE HARD

TO PASS UP.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> Jeff: YOU CAN FOREGO THIS CHALLENGE THAT'S GOING TO BE

CERTAIN PAIN AND INSTEAD INDULGE IN SOMETHING THAT IS GUARANTEED

PLEASURE.

>> OH, GOD.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> Jeff: YOU CAN SKIP TODAY'S CHALLENGE AND INSTEAD FEAST ON

PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE.

>> OH, WOW.

>> OH, GOD.

>> OH, MY GOD.

>> Jeff: I'LL GIVE YOU A MINUTE TO THINK ABOUT IT, AND

WE'LL GET STARTED.

ALL RIGHT.

DECISIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.

DEVON, BEN, AND LAUREN DECIDED TO SIT OUT OF THE CHALLENGE AND

PARTICIPATE IN EATING CHOCOLATE AND PEANUT BUTTER, GIVING UP

THEIR SHOT AT IMMUNITY, WHILE MIKE, ASHLEY, RYAN, CHRISSY,

JOE, AND J.P. SAID, NOPE, I'M NOT THAT SECURE, I'M GOING TO

TRY TO WIN IT.

ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS HEAVY.

THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN EAT IT ALL.

>> OH, MAN.

>> Jeff: YOU CAN EAT UNTIL THE CHALLENGE ENDS.

EVERYBODY TAKE YOUR FIRST POSITION.

HOLD ON UNTIL YOU GET COMFORTABLE, AND THEN I'LL COUNT

YOU IN.

>> COME ON, MIKE, WE GOT THIS.

>> Jeff: FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE...

ALL RIGHT.

EVERYBODY IS IN THEIR FIRST POSITION.

AND THIS CHALLENGE IS ON.

WE'LL BE HERE 20 MINUTES.

HANDS CANNOT TOUCH, BUTT CANNOT TOUCH.

THIS WOULD BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DO ON A FULLY RESTED, FULLY

FUELED BODY, LET ALONE AFTER 27 DAYS ON "SURVIVOR."

YOU'RE TESTED ON EVERY LEVEL, AND NOW YOU'RE OUT IN THE MIDDLE

OF THE OCEAN BALANCING ON A TRIANGULAR PLATFORM.

MIKE, WHAT WILL YOUR KIDS THINK WHEN THEY SEE THIS, YOU AND YOUR

FILTHY YELLOW SHIRT STILL COMPETING ON "SURVIVOR" WITH

ONLY NINE PEOPLE LEFT?

>> I JUST HAVE TO CONVINCE THEM I'M NOT CRAZY, JEFF, AND THEN

THEY'LL BE PROUD OF ME.

>> TOO LATE FOR THAT.

>> COCONUTS, MIKE.

>> YEP, WE'RE THE COCONUT.

HE'S COCOA AND I'M NUTS.

>> Jeff: A LITTLE WATER MOVEMENT.

THERE AND J.P. ALMOST GOT CAUGHT OFF BALANCE.

THAT'S HOW FAST YOU GET LULLED INTO SLEEP.

YOU'VE GOT TO STAY LIMBER AND LOOSE.

ANTICIPATE.

RYAN WITH A NICE ONE.

IT WILL CATCH YOU QUICKLY.

YOU FEEL IT.

IT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE.

JOE REALLY STRUGGLING.

IF YOU TOUCH, YOU'RE OUT.

J.P. WITH A BIG STRETCH, NICE RECOVERY.

>> HEY, JEFF, DO YOU WANT TO GET DOWN ON THIS?

>> NEW YORK I'M GOOD.

THAT'S FOR YOU GUYS.

THANKS, BEN.

A LOT OF FUN BEING HAD OVER HERE.

IT'S AMAZING WHAT PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE DOES FOR THE

SPIRIT.

>> Jeff: J.P. ANOTHER NICE SAVE.

J.P. HAS BEEN ALL OVER THE PLACE BUT HAS NOT FALLEN.

>> HE'S GOING DOWN.

>> Jeff: J.P. CAN'T HANG IN ANY LONGER.

J.P. IS FIRST OUT.

NO SHOT AT IMMUNITY.

WE ARE DOWN TO FIVE.

YOU'RE HALFWAY THROUGH THIS SECTION.

THEN WE'LL MOVE UP.

ALL RIGHT.

IT IS TIME NOW TO MOVE ENTER YOUR FINAL SPOT, WHERE YOU WILL

BE FOR THE REST OF THE CHALLENGE.

EVERYBODY IS SAFE.

YOU CAN TOUCH.

HOLD ON UNTIL YOU GET YOUR BALANCE.

EVERYBODY MOVE UP ON TO THAT TOP LEVEL NOW.

>> WHOA, THAT IS NOT EASY.

>> Jeff: NOW IT GETS FUN.

HERE WE GO.

FIVE, FOUR, THREE, TWO, ONE.

AND WE ARE BACK.

CHRISSY CAN ONLY HANG FOR A SECOND.

MIKE ALMOST DROPS.

NICE RECOVERY.

JOE WITH A NICE SAVE.

JOE REALLY STRUGGLING TO STAY UP THERE.

JOE CAN'T DO IT.

JOE IS NOW OUT.

WE'RE DOWN TO THREE.

THREE VERY DIFFERENT POSITIONS.

MIKE SIDEWAYS, TURNED AWAY FROM EVERYBODY.

ASHLEY HEAD-ON LIKE SHE IS SURFING, AND RYAN CROUCHED, ALL

FIGHTING FOR IMMUNITY 27 DAYS INTO "SURVIVOR."

>> I'M IN THE HEAVING "SURVIVOR" WITHOUT WINNING AN IMMUNITY.

>> Jeff: ASHLEY FLIRTING WITH DISASTER.

RYAN PLAYING WITH FIRE WITH THOSE HAND, BALANCING ON ONE

FOOT AND THEN THE TOES OF THE OTHER, BUT HE DOESN'T WANT TO

TRY TO MOVE.

TOO RISKY.

ASHLEY REALLY STRUGGLING.

RYAN CAN'T HOLD HIS POSITION ANYMORE.

RYAN DROPS.

WE'RE DOWN TO TWO.

AND THEY ARE SIDE BY SIDE.

IT IS DR. MIKE AND ASHLEY, A HEALER AND A HERO BATTLING IT

OUT ON DAY 27 FOR IMMUNITY ON "SURVIVOR."

ASHLEY ROCK SOLID.

>> THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR.

>> Jeff: MIKE RIGHT ON THE EDGE OF DISASTER.

FATIGUE NOW STARTING TO SET IN.

ASHLEY WITH A LITTLE BIT OF MOVEMENT.

MIKE OUT OF NOWHERE DROPS.

IT'S OVER.

ASHLEY WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY, SAFE FROM THE VOTE TONIGHT AT

TRIBAL COUNCIL.

WHAT A CHALLENGE.

ASHLEY, COME ON OVER.

[APPLAUSE] ASHLEY SAFE TONIGHT AT TRIBAL

AFTER 27 DAY, WILL NOT BE VOTED OUT OF THIS GAME.

AS FOR THE REST OF YOU, I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS OUT HERE.

I KNOW 39 DAYS IS A GOAL.

FOR SOMEBODY TONIGHT THAT WILL CUT SHORT.

TENTH PERSON VOTED OUT, THIRD MEMBER OF OUR JURY.

GRAB YOUR STUFF.

SWIM OUT AND SEE YOU AT SURVIVAL.

>> J.P., CHRISSY AND RYAN DIDN'T WIN, AND THAT WORKS PERFECTLY

FOR OUR PLAN.

I'M LIKE A GIDDY LITTLE KID ABOUT THIS VOTE TONIGHT.

NOW IT'S TIME TO PULL THE TRIGGER AND MAKE IT HAPPEN.

>> AWESOME JOB, ASH.

>> GOOD JOB, ASHLEY.

GOOD JOB, MIKE.

I WAS IMPRESSED, MIKE.

BALANCE ISN'T USUALLY YOUR THING.

>> MIKE, YOU HAVE MANY MORE SKILLS THAN YOU LET ON.

>> I WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT BEN, LAUREN, AND DEVON CHOSE TO

EAT.

I THOUGHT WE HAD A JOB TO DO IN TAKING OUT JOE AND MIKE.

WHAT AM I, A ROMANIAN GYMNAST, LIKE I'M GOING TO BE DOING

BACKFLIPS ON THE PLATFORM?

THAT LED A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH, AND LUCKILY ASHLEY WON.

NOW WE GET TO DECIDE WHO WILL STAY BETWEEN MIKE AND JOE.

WHAT ARE YOU THINKING FOR TONIGHT?

>> I GUESS MIKE IS STARTING TO BECOME QUITE THE COMMANDER.

>> I WOULD BE HAPPY WITH EITHER ONE.

>> JOE IS MORE LIKELY TO FIND THE IDOL.

>> I DON'T CARE.

JUST LET ME KNOW.

>> I DON'T CARE.

THEY'RE BOTH THE SAME.

>> I'M WITH YOU.

>> I FEEL VERY COMFORTABLE WITH OUR ALLIANCE OF SEVEN.

WE'RE DEFINITELY UNIFIED IN WANTING TO GET OUT JOE OR MIKE.

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET RID OF BOTH OF THEM, BUT GETTING RID OF ONE

OF THEM WILL BREAK UP THIS NEW COCONUT ALIKE, WHICH IS MAKING

US ALL BANANAS.

>> EVERYBODY EXPECTS JOE TO GO NEXT.

I THINK IT WOULD BE A LITTLE BIT FUN TO VOTE OUT MIKE AND LEAVE

JOEL UNTIL THE END.

I FEEL LIKE THAT WOULD BE FUN.

>> BOYS ON MIKE, GIRLS ON JOE?

>> OKAY.

>> I LOOK AT CHRISSY AND RYAN, AND I SEE THE POWER BLINDING

THEM.

I SEE THE CLUELESSNESS IN HOW CONFIDENT THEY'RE ACTING.

IT'S MIND BLOWING.

THAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED, AND MYSELF ALONG WITH MY ALLIANCE IS

GOING TO BE THE ONE TO CHANGE THAT.

>> LOOK, THIS WHOLE TRUST IN THE SEVEN ALLIANCE IS CRAP.

WE HAVE TO THINK ABOUT OURSELVES.

THERE'S NO POINT IN GETTING RID OF JOE AND MIKE.

WHO DO WE TAKE OUT FIRST?

RIGHT NOW IS THE POINT IN THIS GAME THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE

CONTROL AND BREAK UP J.P., CHRISSY, AND RYAN.

THEY'RE ALL THREATS, IN MY OPINION.

CHRISSY IS JUST A HUGE THINKER.

SHE IS SUCH A MASTERMIND.

J.P. IS A HUGE THREAT BECAUSE HE MIGHT NOT BE GOOD AT BALANCING,

BUT HE IS GOOD AT EVERYTHING ELSE.

AND RYAN IS A HUGE THREAT BECAUSE HE HAS AN IDOL.

THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO FLUSH THAT IDOL AND GET RID OF HIM.

STARTING TONIGHT, THE GAME IS REALLY ON.

>> IT'S UP TO US TO TAKE CHARGE.

>> WE DON'T DO IT NOW, THEN WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THE

NUMBERS.

>> IT'S GOING DOWN TONIGHT, BUT MOVING FORWARD, WE NEED THE

MAINTAIN CONTROL.

AFTER THE BIGGEST BLIND SIDE YET, SO I'VE COME UP WITH A PLAN

TO DO IT VERY SUBTLY.

>> HEY, BIG GUY.

>> HEY.

>> WHAT'S UP?

>> THIS IS WHAT I THINK.

I THINK YOU SHOULD VOTE MIKE.

>> REALLY?

>> BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY BEN'S WITH US.

WE DON'T WANT BEN TO KNOW.

WE DON'T WANT JOE TO KNOW.

WE DON'T WANT MIKE TO KNOW.

BEN IS WITH US, YET HE'S GOING TO PRETEND LIKE HE'S NOT WITH

US.

SO AFTER TRIBAL COUNCIL, CHRISSY, RYAN, OR J.P., WHOEVER

IS LEFT, WILL COME RUNNING TO HIM.

THEY'RE IN FOR A RUDE AWAKENING, AND IT'S GOING TO BE CLASSIC TO

SEE THE LOOKS ON THEIR FACES.

I MEAN, THIS IS WHAT "SURVIVOR" IS ALL ABOUT.

BUT BEN'S VOTING WITH THEM, WE NEED MIKE AND JOE TO VOTE WITH

US TO JUST KEEP NUMBERS.

>> IF THEY KNOW BEN IS A PART OF IT, THEY COULD SWITCH OVER.

>> ALL RIGHT.

I'M DOWN WITH THAT.

ARE YOU DOWN WITH THAT?

>> MY MISSION NOW IS TO STAY ON THE INSIDE OF J.P., CHRISSY, AND

RYAN, AND INFILL TRAIL WHEN WE GET BACK THE TRIBAL.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?

>> I'M GOOD WITH MIKE.

>> WE'LL HAVE THE NUMBERS.

>> THEY'RE GOING TO BE LIVED.

>> TRIBAL COUNCIL IS GOING TO BE FUN TO WATCH.

BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO PULL THE RUG OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THEM.

SO I GOT TO GET ME ACTING SHOES ON, AND THEY NEED TO GET MIKE

AND JOE.

>> WE WANT THE TALK TO YOU GUYS.

THEY STILL THINK SEVEN STRONG AND YOU TWO ARE OUT.

>> YEAH.

>> THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

>> FAIR ENOUGH.

>> US FIVE, AND BEN IS STILL GOING TO THINK IT'S SEVEN

STRONG, AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, YOU'LL SEE AT TRIBAL, YOU'LL

BE HERE.

>> OH, MY GOSH, IT'S HAPPENING.

THE SEVEN HAS SPLIT, AS I KNEW THEY WOULD.

>> JUST TALK TO ME.

>> I WILL VOTE WHOEVER YOU WANT ME TO VOTE FOR.

>> ALL OF A SUDDEN THE COURT JESSER THE HAS BECOME MERLIN AND

I'M GOING TO MAKE THEM DISAPPEAR ONE BY ONE.

>> CHRISSY, J.P., AND RYAN HAVE NO IDEA THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY

TRICKING THEM, WHICH IS THE FUNNY PART.

THEY THINK THEY'RE IN CHARGE, AND I'M GLAD THAT'S THE PACE

THEY'RE ON, BECAUSE I'M A PAGE AHEAD OF THEM.

YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT EVERY LITTLE SCENARIO, BECAUSE ONCE

YOU MAKE THE PLAY, THERE IS NO TAKING IT BACK.

TRIBAL IS GOING TO BE A HUGE BLIND SIDE.

I MEAN, THE SEVEN IS GOING TO GET BLOWN UP, AND IT'S GOING TO

BE FIREWORKS AT CAMP TONIGHT.

FOURTH OF JULY IS COMING EARLY.

>> Jeff: NOW BRING IN THE MEMBERS OF OUR JURY.

DESI AND COLE VOTED OUT AT THE LAST TRIBAL COUNCIL.

SO DR. MIKE, LAST TRIBAL COUNCIL THE HEALERS WERE IN TROUBLE.

YOU PLAYED AN IDOL, COLE WAS VOTED OUT.

WAS THERE ANY FALLOUT?

>> YOU KNOW, IT LOOKED LIKE I WAS CRAZY AT THE LAST TRIBAL

THE REALITY WAS I NEEDED TO REINVENT THE GAME.

I NEEDED TO SAY THE SAME THING THAT JOE SAID BUT BECAUSE I'M A

DOCTOR HOPE THAT PEOPLE BELIEVE IT BECAUSE I SAY IT.

>> Jeff: THAT'S CRAZY THAN WHAT HE SAID LAST TRIBAL

COUNCIL, THAT BECAUSE HE'S A DOCTOR, PEOPLE WOULD BELIEVE

HIM.

IT'S AS IF MIKE AND JOE ARE JUST THESE LITTLE TOYS YOU ARE

PLAYING WITH, BATTING BACK AND FORTH.

>> WELL, WE'RE NOT NECESSARILY PLAYING WITH THEM.

I THINK COMEDY ROUTINE STARTED WITH THE TWO OF THEM, AND THEY

ARE GIVING US A SHOW.

ALL DAY LONG.

>> Jeff: MIKE, IS THAT AN ANGLE, JUST TIR THEM ENTER

THINKING I'M SO NUTS THEY BECOME CHARMED BY ME?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

LOOK AT US, WE'RE TWO VOTES.

THAT WAS THE GOAL OF LAST TRIBAL.

IT'S TO KEEP JOE AROUND FOR US TO BE A TWO-VOTE BLOC, AND WE'RE

OUT THERE.

TWO VOTES.

>> RYAN, IS THAT PART OF THE THREAT, THAT THEY'RE COCOA-NUTS.

>> IT'S A PACKAGE DEAL, BUY ONE GET ONE FREE, BUT MIKE'S PITCHES

TO ME ARE COMPLETELY INACCURATE ABOUT WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING

WITHIN THE SEVEN BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN SO STRONG.

YEAH, YOU COULD USE MIKE AND JOE AS THE SWING VOTE, BUT IT JUST

DOESN'T MAKE A LOT OF SENSE, BUT AGAIN, I GIVE THEM CREDIT FOR AT

LEAST TRYING.

>> Jeff: JOE, RYAN IS SAYING, IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A PITCH,

THE PITCH HAS TO LINE UP WITH MY VISION.

>> THAT'S THE PROBLEM.

ME AND MIKE MAY LINE UP WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S VISION.

>> Jeff: WOW, DEVON, JOE JUST SAID A FEW WORDS, BUT HE SAID

I DON'T HAVE TO LINE UP WITH EVERYBODY, JUST SOMEBODY.

>> THAT'S ALL THESE TWO NEED, THEY'RE LOOKING FOR CRACKS.

MAYBE ONE DAY THEY WILL FIND ONE, MAYBE THEY WON'T.

THERE'S NO SAYING.

>> Jeff: SO LAUREN, IF IT IS SEVEN STRONG, IS THIS THE CALM

BEFORE THE STORM?

>> I HAVE A FEELING IT'S GETTING READY TO BE A PERFECT STORM.

THIS CAN ONLY LAST FOR SO LONG.

YOU KNOW, I WISH THERE WERE SEVEN SEATS AT THE VERY END,

THERE ISN'T, THERE'S ONLY THREE.

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, THE SEVEN IS ULTIMATELY STILL A MIRAGE, AS

LAUREN SAID, THE GAME DOESN'T END WITH SEVEN.

>> WELL, CLEARLY WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT RELATIONSHIPS WITH

EACH OTHER.

SOME OF US HAVE JUST BEEN ON TRIBES WITH EACH OTHER LONGER,

SO I DON'T THINK THAT ANY OF US HAVE THE SAME EQUAL RELATIONSHIP

WITH EACH OF THE SIX OTHER PEOPLE ON THE TRIBE.

THE QUESTION IS: HOW DO WE MANAGE OUR OWN WAYS TO THE END.

I DON'T KNOW.

>> Jeff: JOE, THAT'S THE OPENING THAT YOU AND MIKE ARE

LOOKING FOR, IS WHEN ONE SMALLER GROUP TRIES TO FIGURE OUT

ANOTHER SMALLER GROUP AND YOU TRY TO GET RIGHT IN THERE AND

SAY, I'M THE MISSING VOTE YOU NEED.

>> SHE SAID ONE OF THE OTHER SIX.

WE'RE NOT IN THE TRIBE.

THEY DON'T EVEN CONSIDER US.

WE'RE THE TWO KIDS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, WE WANT THE PLAY

"SURVIVOR," BUT THEY DON'T LET US PLAY.

THE SEVEN DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT WE'RE TWO SOLID VOTES.

>> Jeff: LAUREN, YOU ALL HAVE SAT HERE AND TALKED ABOUT THIS

SEVEN.

BUT THE MINUTE WE ACTUALLY GET DOWN TO IT, EVERYBODY DOES SEEM

TO BE IN AGREEMENT, YEAH, I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S SOME

ALLIANCES WITHIN THE SEVEN.

>> LET'S JUST SAY WE'RE NOT ALL SITTING AT THE FIRE AS SEVEN,

SAYING, OKAY, WHICH ONE OF US SEVEN IS GOING TO GO NEXT.

WE'RE NOT DOING THAT, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

>> Jeff: RYAN, WHEN DOES THAT MOMENT HAPPEN?

>> IT HAPPENS WHEN PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING.

IF YOU DON'T THINK IT'S HAPPENING, THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW

IT'S HAPPENING.

>> ON TOP OF, THAT YOU CAN'T GET TO PLAN "B" UNLESS YOU GET

THROUGH PLAN "A."

SOMETIMES YOU GET CAUGHT LOOKING SO FAR DOWN THE GAME YOU FORGET

WHAT'S HAPPENING IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE AND BEFORE YOU KNOW

IT, YOU'RE THE ONE GOING HOME.

>> I DON'T THINK WE'RE PLAYING THIS GAME AS POORLY AS JOE WOULD

LIKE TO THINK.

WE'RE NOT ALL THINKING THIS IS A MAGICAL SEVEN, BUT IT TARTS

THERE.

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, WHAT RYAN SAID IS LATE TERRIFYING.

IT'S HAPPENING WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW IT'S HAPPENING.

>> WHICH IS WHY YOU CAN NEVER STOP PLAYING THIS GAME.

YOU HAVE TO PLAY IT WHILE YOU SLEEP.

YOU HAVE TO PLAY IT WHILE YOU EAT.

WHO -- YOU HAVE THE PLAY IT WHILE YOU PEE.

THE MOMENT YOU STOP PLAYING, THERE ARE CONVERSATIONS BEHIND

YOU AND YOU'RE REQUEST IN THE DUST.

>> Jeff: IT'S EXHAUSTING.

>> I THINK THE BEST WAY IS TO FIND THE PEOPLE YOU TRUST IN

YOUR GAME.

THEY ARE YOUR EYES AND YOUR EARS.

IT GIVES YOU A BREAK BECAUSE YOU KNOW THEY'RE THINKING WITH YOU.

>> Jeff: BEN, HOW COMFORTABLE ARE YOU THINKING THAT YOU COULD

LOOK AT SOMEBODY IN YOUR ALLIANCE AND SAY, YOU IN

PARTICULAR, I BELIEVE I CAN TRUST?

>> TRUST IS GOING TO GET YOU TO THE END OF THE GAME.

YOU HAVE TO TRUST TWO OR THREE OTHER PEOPLE.

THAT'S A FACT.

BUT FINDING TRUST IN A GAME OF SO MUCH DISTRUST IS THE HARD

PART.

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, HOW CONFIDENT ARE YOU THAT YOU CAN

TRUST THE PEOPLE IN YOUR ALLIANCE THAT YOU'VE ONLY KNOWN

27 DAYS AND THOSE 27 DAYS HAVE BEEN ON "SURVIVOR"?

>> I WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE THAT I CAN FULLY TRUST THE PEOPLE IN

MY CLOSEST ALLIANCE, AND I FEEL THEY HAVE COME THROUGH FOR ME IN

THE PAST AND HAVE PROVEN THEIR LOYALTY AND THEIR TRUST.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT.

IT IS TIME TO VOTE.

RYAN, YOU'RE UP.

>> SEE YOU LATER, COCOA-NUT.

>> Jeff: I'LL GO TALLY THE VOTES.

IF ANYBODY HAS A HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL AND YOU WANT TO PLAY IT,

NOW WILL BE THE TIME TO DO SO.

ONCE THE VOTES ARE READ, THE DECISION IS FINAL, PERSON VOTED

OUT WILL BE ASKED THE LEAVE THE TRIBAL COUNCIL AREA IMMEDIATELY.

I'LL READ THE VOTES.

FIRST VOTE, MIKE.

JOE.

MIKE.

TWO VOTES MIKE.

ONE VOTE JOE.

MIKE.

THREE VOTES MIKE, ONE VOTE JOE.

J.P.

ONE VOTE J.P.

J.P.

THAT'S TWO VOTES J.P.

WE'RE TIED.

THREE VOTES J.P., THREE VOTES MIKE, ONE VOTE JOE.

J.P.

THAT'S FOUR VOTES J.P., THREE VOTES MIKE.

ONE VOTE JOE, ONE VOTE LEFT.

TENTH PERSON VOTED OUT AND THE THIRD MEMBER OF OUR JURY, J.P.,

YOU NEED TO BRING ME YOUR TORCH.

J.P., THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN.

TIME FOR YOU TO GO.

>> DAMN, THEY GOT ME GOOD.

>> Jeff: WELL, BASED ON THE SHOCKED REACTION, IT SOUNDS LIKE

RYAN HAD IT RIGHT.

WHEN IS IT HAPPENING?

WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW IT'S HAPPENING.

GRAB YOU TORCHES, HEAD BACK TO CAMP.

GOOD NIGHT.

>> CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED?

SO HOW DID THAT PLAY OUT?

>> IF WE'RE GOING TO TELL YOU, ABSOLUTELY NOT WE'RE NOT GOING

TO TELL YOU.

DO WE LOOK LIKE IDIOTS?

WE'RE COCONUT, BUT WE'RE NOT IDIOT.

JUST BE LUCKY IT WASN'T YOU.

>> IT WAS WELL PLAYED COMING FROM A GUY WHO SAID HE WOULD

NEVER BE A PUPPET.

>> YOU COULD BE UPSET AND BITTER.

ME AND MIKE HAVE BEEN IN THE BOTTOM FOR HOW LONG?

WE'VE NEVER BEEN BITTER.

WE'VE BEEN HAPPY AROUND CAMP.

JUST BE HAPPY YOU'RE AROUND CAMP.

>> I'M UPSET ABOUT THE BLIND SIDE, BUT I'M MORE UPSET ABOUT

THE WAY THAT THOSE FIVE TREATED US THREE WHEN WE GOT BACK TO

CAMP.

AM I ALLOWED TO ASK HOW LONG...

WHEN THE PLAN WAS CRAFTED?

AM I ALLOWED TO ASK THAT?

>> YOU CAN ASK, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO ANSWER?

>> BLIND SIDES ARE PART OF THE GAME, BEING SNARKY TO YOUR

FRIENDS IS NOT.

THAT IS THE PART THAT'S FRUSTRATING TO ME.

CLEARLY THEY'RE NOT FRIENDS.

WHATEVER.

>> THANK YOU FOR SAVING ME, YOU KNOW.

>> SO I TRIED TO BE VERY GRACIOUS.

I JUST SAID, GOOD MOVE, EVERYBODY, WELL PLAYED.

EVEN THOUGH I'M INFURIATED.

I THOUGHT I HAD IT MADE.

I'M JUST HAPPY TO BE HERE.

>> YOU'RE FINE.

>> IT'S A VERY NEW FEELING BEING ON THE BOTTOM.

I REALLY NEED TO THINK HOW I'M GOING TO RECOVER FROM THIS.

>> I NEVER MAKE A MOVE AND SHARE.

>> YOU DIDN'T MAKE A MOVE.

YOU GOT DRUG ALONG.

>> GUESS WHAT...

>> THE GREAT PUPPET GUY WHO WILL NEVER BE A PUPPET.

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.

>> IT WASN'T YOU, BEN.

>> MIKE AND JOE ARE PRETTY MUCH IN THE DARK OF ME WORKING WITH

ASHLEY, DEVON, AND LAUREN, BUT JOE IS WALKING AROUND LIKE IT

WAS HIS DAMN IDEA TO BLIND SIDE J.P.

>> BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE.

YOU KEEP ME, MIKE STICKS AROUND.

>> HE DID WHAT A GOOD LITTLE PUPPET WOULD DO.

YOU PULL THE STRINGS, YOU MAKE SURE YOU WRITE J.P., AND HE DID.

WHAT WAS THE REASON FOR J.P., OUT OF CURIOSITY?

>> YOU GUYS ARE ASKING CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

>> I SHOULD GET AN AWARD FOR THE PERFORMANCE I PUT ON AFTER I GOT

BACK THE CAMP.

I'M DOING MY BEST DOUBLE AGENT WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT.

I'M PLAYING THE ROLE OF BEING ON THE OUTS WITH CHRISSY AND RYAN

TO GATHER INTEL WHEN I KNOW THAT I HAVE MY ALLIANCE OF FOUR IN

LAUREN, DEVON, ASHLEY AND MYSELF.

>> J.P. GOING HOMEWORKED OUT AS PLANNED.

AND IT WAS PERFECT TIMING BECAUSE IT GAVE US THE UPPER

HAND.

IT JUST REVERSED THE ROLE.

CHRISSY, J.P., AND RYAN FELT LIKE THEY WERE ON THE TOP.

NOW RYAN AND CHRISSY ARE SITTING ON THE BOTTOM.

THEY KNOW IT.

>> WELL PLAYED.

>> THAT WAS REALLY WELL PLAYED.

>> THAT WAS GOOD.

CHRISSY AND RYAN THINK THAT I'M IN WITH THEM.

>> YEAH.

>> AND I'LL GET RYAN TO PLAY HIS IDOL.

>> AND YOU ARE GOING TO TELL US.

>> YEAH.

>> DUDE, I HAD TO DO IT, MAN.

>> YOU KNOW I'M IN THE MAD AT YOU.

>> I KNOW, I KNOW.

I KNOW YOU'RE NOT.

>> I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR MY TRUST WITH DEVON.

DEVON AND I HAVE BEEN TOGETHER SINCE DAY ONE.

I HAVE GIVEN HIM EVERY SINGLE OUNCE OF INFORMATION THAT I'VE

HAD IN THIS GAME.

AND HE BLIND SIDED ME.

HE COULD HAVE SENT ME HOME.

>> THE REASON YOU DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS VOTE WAS BECAUSE...

WELL, YOU TOLD ME THAT I WAS GOING, YOU AND ME.

>> >> NO, YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE I

TOLD.

>> EVER SINCE RYAN LIED TO ME ABOUT HIM AND I BEING THE ONLY

ONES ABOUT THE IDOL, THAT LIE CAUSED ME TO NO LONGER TRUSTED

HIM ANYMORE.

>> I HAVE NEVER WAVERED FROM ME, YOU, AND LAUREN FROM GOING TO

THE FINAL THREE.

I VOTED THE WAY WE SAID WE WERE GOING TO VOTE.

>> I TRUST ASHLEY AND I TRUST LAUREN AND I WANT TO TRUST YOU,

BUT THAT SCARED ME.

TO BE HONEST, THAT REALLY SCARED ME.

WE'VE HAD AN ALLIANCE SINCE DAY ONE, BUT IT IS A SELFISH GAME IN

THE END.

AND I HAVE MY OWN PLAN TO GET ME TO WIN THAT MILLION, AND HE'S NO

LONGER A PART OF IT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

EVERYONE COME GET A SEASHELL.

>> THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU.

>> I GREW UP WATCHING "SURVIVOR," BUT YOU DON'T

REALIZE HOW MENTALLY STRAINING IT IS, AND MY WHOLE GAME UP

UNTIL THIS POINT HAS BEEN VERY CLOUDY, BUT NOW EVERYTHING IS

BECOMING MUCH MORE CLEAR.

IS IT JUST ME OR ARE YOU FEELING LIKE REALLY GOOD?

>> I'M REALLY GOOD.

>> YOU DID SO WELL.

BUT YOU REALIZE WE VOTE OFF ONE MORE PERSON AND WE'RE GUARANTEED

FINAL FOUR, BECAUSE THEN WE HAVE THE MAJORITY AND THEN WE CAN BE

OPEN.

>> ALL RIGHT.

>> WE DON'T EVEN HAVE TO HIDE.

>> EVEN RIGHT NOW WE HAVE LAUREN'S VOTE.

IT REALLY DOESN'T MATTER, BECAUSE ONCE WE HAVE US FOUR A

MAJORITY, WE'RE SET.

HAVING BEN BEING OUR SECRET AGENT, I KNOW WHERE THE IDOL IS.

I KNOW WHERE THE ADVANTAGES ARE, AND I KNOW WHAT EVERY SINGLE

PLAYER IS THINKING.

>> IT'S BETWEEN CHRISSY AND JOE FOR SURE.

THE ONLY REASON I WANT THE KEEP JOE OVER CHRISSY IS I THINK

CHRISSY'S MORE OF A CHALLENGE THREAT THAN JOE.

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THIS GAME I'M CALLING THE SHOTS, AND I

DON'T THINK ANYONE KNOWS THAT I'M AS GOOD AT THIS GAME AS I

AM.

SO I'M SITTING IN THE BEST POSSIBLE SEAT IN THIS GAME.

SO I'M SITTING IN THE BEST POSSIBLE SEAT IN THIS GAME.

>> Jeff: COME ON IN, GUYS.

ALL RIGHT.

LET'S GET TO TODAY'S REWARD CHALLENGE.

FOR TODAY'S CHALLENGE, WE'RE GOING TO RANDOMLY DIVIDE INTO

TWO TEAMS OF FOUR.

ON MY GO, YOU'LL SWIM OUT THE A BOAT, THEN PADDLE TO SHORE,

COLLECTING THREE BAGS OF LOGS ALONG THE WAY.

YOU'LL THEN USE THOSE LOGS TO PUSH PUZZLE PIECES THROUGH A

TUNNEL.

ONCE ALL THE PIECES ARE OUT, YOU WILL USE THEM TO COMPLETE A

SURVIVOR PUZZLE.

FIRST FOUR TO FINISH WINS REWARD.

WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PLAYING FOR?

>> YEAH.

>> THE WINNING FOUR WILL ENJOY A SURVIVOR SPA.

YOU WILL ENJOY A NICE SHOWER.

>> WOW.

>> Jeff: YOU'LL THEN ENJOY MASSAGES.

AND THEN YOU'LL EAT CHICKEN, VEGGIE WRAPS, FRESH FRUIT, AND

FOR DESSERT, KEY LIME AND PECAN PIE.

>> NO, WAY.

YUMMY.

>> PECAN PIE.

I LIKE IT.

>> Jeff: LOSERS, NOTHING.

WE'LL DRAW FOR TEAMS.

WE'LL GET STARTED.

LET'S DO THIS!

ALL RIGHT.

WE RANDOMLY DIVIDED INTO TEAMS.

WE HAVE LAUREN, RYAN, MIKE, AND CHRISSY TAKING ON BEN, ASHLEY,

JOE, AND DEVON.

FOR REWARD, SURVIVORS READY?

GO!

FIRST YOU GOT TO GET EVERYBODY IN THE BOAT.

MIKE IS TRYING TO GET UP IN THE BOAT FOR RED.

DEVON TRYING TO GET UP IN THERE FOR BLUE.

START PADDLING.

RED FINALLY HAS EVERYONE IN THE BOAT.

IT IS BLUE OFF TO THE EARLY LEAD NOW, WORKING TOWARD THAT FIRST

PLATFORM.

DEVON'S GOT FIRST BAG.

AND THEY ARE HEAVY.

BLUE WITH THE EARLY LEAD.

HERE COMES RED.

>> WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

>> PUSH IT DOWN, PUSH IT DOWN.

>> Jeff: CAN RYAN GET THAT BAG OFF THE PLATFORM?

IT WEIGHS MORE THAN HE DOES.

HE'S GOING TO NEED HELP.

NOW IT'S IN THE WATER.

>> GIVE ME YOUR HAND, GIVE ME YOUR HAND SO YOU WON'T FALL.

>> Jeff: RED FINALLY HAS THEIR FIRST BAG.

BEN NOW HAS THE SECOND BAG FOR BLUE.

THE BLUE BOAT NOW HAS PADDLED AWAY FROM BEN.

HE CAN'T PUT THE PIECES IN NOW.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET BACK THE THAT PLATFORM.

>> COME ON.

GET THE PIECES IN.

>> Jeff: BLUE STRUGGLING NOW.

>> COME ON, THEY'RE STRUGGLING, LET'S GO.

>> Jeff: BEN MAKES IT.

YOU'RE GOOD, BLUE.

RED NOW HAS MADE UP A LOT OF TIME.

MIKE HOPS OFF.

HAS THE PUZZLE PIECES FOR RED.

BLUE HEADING FOR THEIR THIRD AND FINAL BAG OF LOGS.

HERE COMES RED.

MIKE IS GOING TO JUMP OFF FOR RED.

BLUE WITH A MUCH EASIER TIME THIS TIME.

PADDLE TO SHORE NOW.

RED HAS THEIR THIRD BAG.

PADDLE TO SHORE.

THEY ARE DEAD EVEN AGAIN.

BOTH TEAMS NOW TRYING TO CLIP IN.

YOU'RE GOOD, BLUE.

YOU'RE GOOD, RED.

NOW YOU HAVE TO GET ALL THE PIECES UP THE BEACH.

CANNOT START UNTYING UNTIL YOU HAVE ALL THREE BAGS.

LAUREN TAKING ONE BY HERSELF, AND A LOT OF WEIGHT.

THIS IS NOW WHERE BLUE'S STRENGTH IS COMING INTO PLAY.

THEY GET ALL THREE BAGS UP QUICKLY.

START UNTYING.

>> I NEED HELP WITH THIS ONE.

>> RED REALLY STRUGGLING.

CHRISSY AND RYAN CANNOT GET OUT THAT BAG.

BLUE, YOU'RE GOOD.

YOU CAN START SHOVING LOGS THROUGH.

HERE COMES RYAN AND CHRISSY.

YOU'RE GOOD.

START UNTYING.

YOU HAVE TO GET ALL YOUR LOGS THROUGH THIS TUNNEL, AND AS YOU

PUSH THOSE LOGS, YOU ARE PUSHING YOUR PUZZLE PIECES OUT THE OTHER

SIDE.

THAT IS YOUR NEXT GOAL.

BLUE NOW EXTENDING THEIR LEAD.

DEVON AND BEN ALTERNATING PUSHING THOSE LOGS THROUGH.

AND WITH EVERY PUSH, THEY RELEASE MORE PUZZLE PIECES.

>> GO, LAUREN!

>> Jeff: RED HAS THEIRS FREE.

RED CAN START PUSHING.

BLUE HAS ALL OF THEIRS THROUGH.

YOU'RE GOOD, BLUE.

NOW YOU HAVE TO GET ALL THE PIECES UP ON YOUR PUZZLE TABLE.

LET'S GO, RED!

LAUREN USING HER WHOLE BODY TO PUSH THESE LOGS THROUGH.

WOOD DIGGING INTO SKIN.

SHE DOESN'T CARE.

IT'S "SURVIVOR."

BEN AND ASHLEY STARTING ON THE PUZZLE FOR BLUE.

LAUREN HAS BEEN A WORKHORSE IN THIS CHALLENGE USING HER BODY TO

SHOVE THESE LOGS THROUGH.

THAT WILL DO IT.

GO, RED.

BEN AND ASHLEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF TIME TO START GETTING USED TO

THIS PUZZLE.

>> TO THE LEFT OF IT.

>> Jeff: IT'S GOING TO BE MIKE AND CHRISSY WORKING FOR RED, AND

THEY HAVE A BIG TASK AHEAD OF THEM.

BLUE HAS HAD A BIG HEA START.

THIS WOULD BE A GIGANTIC COMEBACK FOR MIKE AND CHRISSY IF

THEY CAN PULL IT OFF.

BEN AND ASHLEY NOW HAVE TO TRADE PIECES AROUND.

SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.

THAT'S OPENING THE DOOR FOR RED.

DEVON SEES ITS.

SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.

PANIC STARTS TO SET IN AND THEN YOU START THE MAKE MORE

MISTAKES.

MOMENTUM CAN SHIFT QUICKLY.

RED IS STARTING TO MAKE SOME PROGRESS OVER HERE.

>> THAT WAY, THAT WAY, THAT WAY.

>> Jeff: THEY CAN SENSE THEY'RE BACK IN THIS BECAUSE

ASHLEY AND BEN ARE SLOWING DOWN.

>> YOU GUYS GOT IT?

YOU GUYS GOT IT?

SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT ON BLUE.

AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT RED WAS HOPING FOR.

>> THAT WAY, THAT WAY.

>> Jeff: A MISTAKE.

>> HERE, HERE.

>> Jeff: BEN AND ASHLEY MAKING QUICK MOVES.

THEY THINK THEY HAVE IT.

>> WE GOT IT, WE GOT IT, WE GOT IT.

>> HEROES VERSUS HEALERS, VERSUS HUSTLERS.

>> Jeff: YOU'RE GOOD!

REWARD FOR JOE, DEVON, BEN, AND ASHLEY.

>> WE HAD A MINUTE LEFT.

>> WE COULD HAVE GOTTEN IT.

>> Jeff: JOE, BEN, ASHLEY AND DEVON WAITING FOR YOU A SURVIVOR

SPA, WHILE THE OTHER FOUR, LAUREN, CHRISSY, RYAN, AND MIKE

CAN DO NOTHING BUT WISH IT WAS THEM.

GRAB YOUR STUFF.

>> I FELT CONFIDENT WE WERE GOING TO WIN, AND WE WON.

IT FEELS GREAT.

I NO LONGER AM ON THE BOTTOM, AND I HAVE A TRUE ALLIANCE.

THE TABLES HAVE TURNED.

MASSAGE.

>> TO OUR WIN.

>> SALUDE.

>> GOOD JOB.

I'M SO PROUD OF US.

THIS IS GOING TO BOOST OUR GAME.

THE REWARD IS AMAZING.

TO HAVE A SPA DAY AND SHOWER AND GET MASSAGES AND HEAT WRAPS.

IT'S LIKE HITTING A RESTART BUTTON ON MY BODY.

>> TRY ONE OF THESE.

>> BUT THERE IS STILL STRATEGY IN MIND.

SO BEN IS STILL PLAYING THE ROLE OF THE DETHRONED KING, AND JOE

IS STILL EATING IT UP.

>> I LOVE LIVING THIS WAY.

LIKE A KING.

>> RIGHT.

>> YOU SHOULD FEEL RIGHT AT HOME THEN, KING ARTHUR.

>> YOU'RE A JERK.

>> TO KING ARTHUR.

>> CHEERS TO MY DISLOYAL KNIGHTS.

>> IT WOULD BE NICE TO KICK BACK AND RELAX WITH DEVON AND ASHLEY,

BUT I'M STILL PLAYING MY PART AS BEING ON THE OUTS, BUT THAT IS

KIND OF FUN FOR ME NOW JUST BECAUSE I'M MESSING WITH JOE AND

HE DON'T EVEN KNOW IT.

ANY TIME I CAN MESS WITH JOE, I'LL TAKE IT

>> LIFE IS GOOD.

>> WHEN YOUR ALLIANCE TURNS ON YOU, IT'S NOT SO FUN.

DID YOU HAVE THAT PLANNED FROM THE GET-GO, OR WHEN DID... YOU

DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER, BUT...

>> I DON'T KNOW.

>> MY LIPS ARE SEALED.

>> I'D RATHER NOT TALK ABOUT IT HONESTLY.

>> ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S FAIR.

>> THAT'S JUST A MOVE WE MADE AND THE GAME MOVES ON.

>> BEN HAS BEEN THE LEADER OF THIS PACK.

HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY THIS GAME WITHOUT POWER AND CONTROL.

HE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THE GAME OBVIOUSLY, AND WE'RE JUST LIKE,

DUDE, WE'RE NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT IT.

NOW HE KNOWS HOW I FELT.

>> WELL, HOPEFULLY I'M NOT NEXT, THAT'S ALL I'M GOING THE SAY.

>> YOU'RE A DANGEROUS MAN, BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF DANGEROUS

PEOPLE OUT HERE.

>> BEN IS STILL PUTTING ON HIS ACADEMY AWARD PERFORMANCE AS A

VERY DISAPPOINTED KING ARTHUR, AND HE SELLS IT LIKE I'VE NEVER

SEEN A STORY SOLD.

IT'S AWESOME.

BUT HE'S PLAYING A REALLY GOOD GAME, AND THAT'S PRETTY SCARY.

BUT HE'S PLAYING A REALLY GOOD GAME, AND THAT'S PRETTY SCARY.

>> THAT LOOKS GOOD ON YOU.

>> HOWDY, PARTNER.

>> YOU'RE LUCKY WE GOT TO KNOW EACH OTHER THAT WELL.

>> THIS IS AWESOME.

>> WE'RE GETTING TOGETHER.

>> LAST NIGHT WAS LIKE THE TURNING POINT OF THIS ENTIRE

GAME FOR ME AND YOU.

>> YEAH.

BECAUSE WE FINALLY MADE A BIG MOVE.

>> AND NOW EVERYONE IS SCRAMBLING.

>> I'M FEELING LIKE THIS GAME JUST UP TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL

FOR ME.

COMING INTO THE MERGE, I DEFINITELY TOOK A BACKSEAT IN MY

OWN GAME, BUT MY GAME PLAY HAS REALLY EVOLVED, AND I FEEL LIKE

I'M FINALLY PLAYING "SURVIVOR."

>> IT'S GOOD.

IT'S A GOOD FEELING.

>> BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL.

>> MAKING THAT BIG MOVE SET THE PACE FOR SOME MORE BIG MOVES

DOWN THE ROAD.

I HONESTLY FEEL LIKE THIS IS MY GAME TO LOSE.

>> IT WAS A FUN CHALLENGE TODAY, THOUGH.

>> FUN?

WAS IT, THOUGH?

>> WHERE IS FUN IN THAT CHALLENGE?

>> I FEEL LIKE NOTHING IS GOING MY WAY.

I CAN'T WIN A VEGGIE WRAP.

THAT'S HOW BAD THINGS ARE GOING RIGHT NOW.

I HAVE AN IDOL IN MY POCKET, BUT I DON'T WANT TO JUST PLAY IT

ONCE AND THEN JUST GO HOME THE NEXT TIME, SO I NEED TO TALK TO

MIKE, BECAUSE IF WE CAN WORK TOGETHER AND WE CAN SHOW THAT WE

BOTH HAVE BEEN LEFT OUT OF VOTES, WE HAVE BOTH WITHIN ON

THE BOTTOM, I THINK IT WOULD ENDEAR US TO EACH OTHER AND JUST

MAYBE I COULD SWING HIM OVER AND HAVE THE NUMBERS BACK ON OUR

SIDE.

>> "SURVIVOR" IS VERY SITUATIONAL.

>> EXTREMELY.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT JUST FIVE, YOU, LAUREN, DEVON, JOE AND YOURSELF?

AND AGAIN, I KNOW, YOU DON'T HAVE TO...

>> I CAN'T SAY.

>> I GOT IT.

>> WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHERE I WAS THREE TRIBALS AGO TO WHERE I AM

TODAY, I WENT FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP, AND NOW I HAVE A NICE

ALLIANCE OF FIVE.

WE HAVE A PLAN TO WORK TOGETHER, AND I'M STICKING TO THAT PLAN.

>> I STILL WANT THE WORK WITH YOU, MIKE.

>> YOU NEVER WANTED TO WORK WITH ME.

I GAVE YOU SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK WITH ME.

>> NO QUESTION.

>> FOR A WEEK I GAVE YOU OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK WITH ME.

>> THE GAME CHANGES, YOU KNOW THAT.

>> UH-HUH.

THE GAME DOES CHANGE.

>> I WENT UP TO RYAN EVERY DAY FOR AT LEAST A WEEK AND SAID,

LET'S WORK TOGETHER, AND HE SAID NO.

I THINK I'M PRETTY GOOD RIGHT NOW, UNFORTUNATELY.

WELL, UNFORTUNATELY FOR YOU.

YOU KNOW?

HE SAID TO ME RIGHT BEFORE TRIBAL COUNCIL HE WASN'T VOTING

FOR ME, AND THEN HE VOTED FOR ME, AND HE HAS THE NERVE TO COME

UP TO ME THE NEXT DAY AND SAY, YOU KNOW, MIKE I'VE ALWAYS

WANTED TO WORK WITH YOU.

WELL, ISN'T IT JUST A BUCK LATE AND A DOLLAR SHORT?

>> THIS MIGHT SOUND TOTALLY BIZARRE, BECAUSE YOU AND I HAVE

NOT TALKED STRATEGY.

>> UH-HUH.

>> BUT RYAN AND I HAVE TALKED STRATEGY PRIOR TO YESTERDAY.

>> UH-HUH.

>> I EXPECTED CHRISSY TO TRY TO WANT THE TALK TO ME, AND I JUST,

UH-HUH, UH-HUH, BUT THAT'S AS FAR AS IT GOES.

IT'S VERY ANNOYING.

>> HE HAS TALKED ABOUT GOING FINAL THREE WITH YOU.

I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S MENTIONED IT TO YOU.

>> NO, BUT I MEAN...

>> I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR SORT OF PLAN IS, WHAT YOUR PERSONAL

PATH TO THE END IS...

>> I'LL LISTEN TO YOU ALL DAY LONG, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M

GOING TO CHANGE MY MIND.

>> LET'S START HAVING CONVERSATIONS.

>> WHO ELSE ARE YOU HAVING CONVERSATIONS WITH?

>> WELL, IF YOU WANTED TO WORK WITH ME YOU WOULD HAVE TALKED TO

ME SEVERAL WEEKS AGO AND NOT TODAY.

>> I'VE JUMPED SHIP ONCE.

I'M NOT GOING TO JUMP SHIP AGAIN.

>> I BELIEVE THAT BEN, RYAN, AND I ARE THE NEXT ONES TO BE VOTED

OFF.

SO LAUREN DOES SOMEWHAT HAVE MY FATE IN HER HANDS.

>> I OPENED THE TOPIC, BUT SHE JUST DIDN'T WANT TO TALK

STRATEGY WITH ME.

>> THIS IS SO WONDERFUL.

>> ISN'T IT, THOUGH?

THEY DON'T WANT TO BE SEEN AS DESPERATE, BUT THAT'S HOW I'M

FEELING TODAY.

THIS GAME IS KICKING MY BUTT, AND IT IS A NEW FEELING FOR ME.

AND RIGHT NOW I AM DEFINITELY IN TROUBLE, BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO

>> ARE YOU OKAY?

>> NEW YORK I THINK THAT I'M JUST... I'M JUST HUNGRY.

>> HUNGRY, TIRED OF SLEEPING ON BAMBOO, WET, COLD?

>> DO YOU NEED A HUG OR ANYTHING?

>> BEING OUT HERE, BEING STRIPPED DOWN TO NOTHING IS WAY

HARDER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE, BECAUSE IN THE REAL WORLD,

I'M ALWAYS IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING.

AND IT'S HARD FOR ME TO NOT BE IN CONTROL OF MY OWN FATE.

THAT IS WHY THIS GAME KICKS YOUR ASS.

I REALLY DON'T WANT IT TO BE THE END OF THE LINE.

>> THANK YOU FOR COOKING THE RICE.

THIS HAS BEEN MY YEARS FOR 16 YEARS, AND WHAT I DO AS AN

ACTUARY IS COME UP WITH ALL OF THE POSSIBLE OUTCOME, SO I WILL

ALWAYS KEEP THINKING OF DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS AND

DIFFERENT WAYS THAT I CAN GET MYSELF BACK ON TOP.

I HOPE THAT I CAN HAVE THE LAST LAUGH.

I HOPE THAT I CAN HAVE THE LAST LAUGH.

>> Jeff: COME ON IN, GUYS.

>> WOW.

>> HELL NO.

>> THAT LOOKS HARD.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT.

SHALL WE GET TO TODAY'S IMMUNITY CHALLENGE?

>> YEAH.

>> Jeff: FIRST THINGS FIRST, ASHLEY, GOT THE TAKE BACK THE

NECKLACE.

>> ALL RIGHT, JEFF.

>> Jeff: THANK YOU.

>> HARD TO GIVE UP.

>> Jeff: I KNOW IT IS.

ONCE AGAIN IMMUNITY IS BACK UP FOR GRABS.

FOR TODAY'S CHANG, YOU'RE GOING TO USE A "SURVIVOR" DRIVING

WHEEL TO TRANSPORT A KEY THROUGH A SERIES OF OBSTACLES.

THAT KEY WILL UNLOCK A SET OF BLOCK PUZZLE PIECES.

YOU'LL TRANSPORT THOSE TO THE FINISH AND USE THEM TO SOLVE A

WORD PUZZLE.

FIRST PERSON TO FINISH WINS IMMUNITY, GUARANTEED A ONE IN

SEVEN SHOT AT GETTING TO THE END.

LOSERS, TRIBAL COUNCIL WHERE SOMEBODY WILL BE THE 11th

JUST LIKE THAT ASHLEY IS BACK IN THIS.

HUGE MOVE BY ASHLEY AND IT WORKS.

SHE WON THE LAST IMMUNITY CHALLENGE.

WOULD LOVE TO WIN IT AGAIN.

AND DEVON, ASHLEY, AND BEN ALREADY STARTING ON THEIR

PUZZLE.

CHRISSY DROPS THREE MORE.

SHE'S GOT TO GO BACK.

CHRISSY IS TAKING A LONG TIME, BUT TRYING TO GET BACK IN THIS.

WE'RE THIS CLOSE TO THE MILLION DOLLARS.

YOU HAVE TO DIG IN RIGHT NOW.

THERE IS ONE WORD: YOU SOLVE IT, YOU ARE SAFE IN THIS GAME.

IT WON'T BE EASY.

YOU KNOW THAT.

THIS IS "SURVIVOR."

>> NO IDEA.

>> Jeff: LAUREN COMING BACK WITH HER FINAL FOUR PUZZLE

PIECES.

CHRISSY WITH HER LAST FOUR PIECES.

YOU'RE STILL IN THIS.

LET'S GO!

WE ARE CLOSE.

ANYBODY COULD WIN THIS RIGHT NOW.

CHRISSY PUTTING PIECES IN.

LAUREN PUTTING PIECES IN.

ONE WORD: WHAT COULD IT BE?

YOU CAN SEE THE WEAR AND TEAR OF 30 DAYS, NOT EASY.

EIGHT PEOPLE ALL FIGHTING FOR IMMUNITY, SECURITY TONIGHT AT

TRIBAL COUNCIL.

CHRISSY PLACES ONE LETTER AND ANOTHER.

DEVON STEPPING BACK TO LOOK AT CHRISSY'S PUZZLE, ALL IS FAIR IN

"SURVIVOR."

DEVON NOW QUICKLY RACES UP AND THINKS HE HAS SOMETHING.

DEVON IS MOVINGS A FAST AS HE CAN.

BEN LOOKING FOR SOME HELP.

BEN NOW HAS AN IDEA.

ASHLEY NOW GETTING IN ON THIS.

IT'S GOING TO COMING DOWN TO HOW FAST YOU CAN SOLVE THIS PUZZLE.

CHRISSY ONE BLOCK AFTER ANOTHER, DEVON THINKS HE HAS IT.

BEN THINKS HE HAS SOMETHING.

>> GOT IT!

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, SAY IT: >> INVULNERABLE!

>> Jeff: CHRISSY PULLS IT OUT, WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY, SAFE

FROM TRIBAL COUNCIL.

>> GOOD JOB, BABY.

>> THANKS!

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, COME ON OVER.

>> I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR 16 YEARS.

>> Jeff: REALLY?

YOU ARE BEAMING RIGHT NOW.

WHAT IS THIS DREAMING WHEN YOU DREAM ABOUT PLAYING "SURVIVOR"

AND YOU PULL OFF ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC MOMENTS, WINNING

>> I REALLY NEEDED IT TONIGHT.

IT'S AN INCREDIBLE FEELING TO KNOW I'LL BE HERE TOMORROW ON

DAY 31.

>> Jeff: GUARANTEED A SPOT IN THE FINAL SEVEN.

AS FOR THE REST OF YOU, SADLY FOR ONE OF YOU TONIGHT, 11th

PERSON VOTED OUT, FOURTH MEMBER OF OUR JURY, IT WON'T BE YOU.

GRAB YOUR STUFF BACK AT CAMP.

SEE YOU TONIGHT AT TRIBAL COUNCIL.

IT WON'T BE YOU.

>> THANK YOU.

I AM INVULNERABLE.

FINALLY WON AN INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY CHALLENGE.

I REALLY BELIEVE I WAS THE ONE WHO WAS GOING TO GO HOME, SO

COMING HOME WITH THIS NECKLACE IS JUST BEAUTIFUL IN SO MANY

>> GOOD JOB, CHRISSY.

>> I KNEW I WAS DONE.

>> A 12-LETTER WORD?

I DON'T EVEN HAVE A 12-LETTER WORD IN MY VOCABULARY.

>> AFTER THE CHALLENGE, EVEN WITH CHRISSY WINNING, THERE ARE

THREE OTHER PEOPLE TO PICK AND SEND HOME, SO NO HARM NO FOUL.

NOW WE JUST NEED TO GET TO GETTING AND FIGURE OUT WHO IS

VOTED OUT NEXT.

>> NUMBER-ONE THING IS WHO WE'RE VOTING OUT.

>> JOE.

WE DON'T NEED JOE ANYMORE, YO.

WE DON'T NEED JOE.

>> WE REALLY DON'T.

LET'S DO JOE.

EASY, SIMPLE, JOE.

DONE DEAL.

>> MY ALLIANCE OF FOUR IS GOING TO VOTE JOE.

NOW, WE HAVE TO COME UP WITH THIS WHOLE NEW PITCH TO JOE AND

MIKE.

SO WHY DON'T WE JUST TELL JOE AND MIKE WE'RE GOING TO USE YOUR

EXTRA VOTE TONIGHT, BUT WE'RE NOT GOING TO USE IT SOME WE'LL

TELL THEM, ME, JOE, AND MIKE WILL ALL VOTE RYAN, AND YOU'LL

SAY YOU, AND ASHLEY AND YOUR EXTRA VOTE WILL VOTE BEN.

THAT WAY WE'RE SAFE, AND THEN WE'RE ONLY VOTING JOE OUT.

I COME UP WITH THIS IDEA TO TELL THEM TO SPLIT THE VOTES BETWEEN

RYAN AND BEN, BUT THE REALITY IS MYSELF, ASHLEY, LAUREN, AND BEN,

ARE GOING TO VOTE JOER AND JOE WILL GO HOME.

>> ALL RIGHT.

WE HAVE A PLAN.

LAUREN'S GOT AN EXTRA VOTE.

>> WHENEVER I WANT THE USE IT.

>> WE'RE GOING TO USE IT TONIGHT.

SO HERE'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO.

YOU, MIKE, AND ME ARE GOING TO VOTE RYAN.

LAUREN, HER EXTRA GEAUX VOTE BEN.

RYAN PLAYS THE IDOL, THEY REVOTE AND WE ALL VOTE BEN.

>> THEY DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE EXTRA VOTE?

>> NO.

>> THIS IS AMAZING.

LAUREN HAS AN ADVANTAGE WHICH GIVES HER THE ABILITY TO

ACTUALLY VOTE TWICE.

SO RIGHT NOW I MEAN I'M ECSTATIC.

I FEEL SO MUCH SAFER JUST KNOWING THAT ADVANTAGE IS GOING

TO BE USED.

>> WE HAVE PLAN.

>> I'M SOLID, GUYS.

I AIN'T GOING NOWHERE.

>> HONESTLY, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE BEN GO.

HE'S THE BIGGEST THREAT IN THIS GAME.

I'M EXCITED FOR BEN TO GO HOME BECAUSE BEN IS THE BIGGEST

THREAT OUT HERE AT THIS POINT.

HE WILL DO ANYTHING TO WIN THIS GAME.

>> SO WE DON'T EVEN NEED THE TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE.

IT'S SET.

>> AND BEN HAS BETRAYED ME MULTIPLE TIMES.

FULL ME ONCE, SHAME ON YOU.

FOOL ME TWICE, SHAME ON ME.

I'M NOT GOING TO LET BEN FOOL ME AGAIN.

>> LET ME SAY, THIS I THINK ANY WAY THEY SPLIT THE VOTES IT'S

GOING TO BE YOU.

>> IF THEY'RE SMART.

>> YEAH.

I MEAN, THEY HAVE TO KNOW THAT WE WOULD VOTE AS A BLOC.

>> WHO WOULD YOU GUYS WANT TO VOTE FOR?

>> I GOT TO GET ASHLEY AND DEVON OUT.

DEVON SCREWED YOU, TOO.

AND ASHLEY SCREWED ME.

>> WHAT ASHLEY DID TO YOU...

>> HOW DID WE GET TRICKED BY TWO 25 YEAR OLD SURFERS?

>> GOSH DANG IT, THAT STINKS, Y'ALL.

>> THIS WHOLE ACT THAT I'M PUTTING ON, Y'ALL, IT IS LATE

EXHAUSTING.

BUT IT'S FOR A GOOD CAUSE TO THIS POINT.

SO I JUST NEED TO GET THROUGH ONE MORE TRIBAL AND PLAY THE

POOR ME, WHY ME, OH, ME CARD.

>> THEY NOVI THE IDOL.

>> EVERYBODY KNOWS.

>> I MIGHT PLAY IT.

I MIGHT NOT.

I DON'T KNOW.

>> I WOULD.

IF I HAD ONE, I WOULD PLAY IT.

IT GETS YOU TO DAY 31.

>> YEAH.

>> WHATEVER HAPPENS, IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE.

>> I STILL HAVE AN IDOL, BUT I DON'T FEEL I NEED TO PLAY IT.

AND FOR TONIGHT TO ACTUALLY HAPPEN THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO

HAPPEN, PUT A SUCKER IN MY HAND AND A BALLOON IN THE OTHER, AN

I'LL BE SITTING THERE LIKE A LITTLE KID IN A CANDY STORE JUST

WATCHING JOE GET HIS TORCH SNUFFED.

>> I'M JUST THINKING, WE WOULD BE CRAZY TO TAKE HIM TO FOUR.

>> I AGREE 100%, CITIZENNING NEXT TO HIM.

>> EVERYONE WOULD VOTE BEN.

>> YEAH.

>> HE'S A STRONG, A LEADER, THE KIDS.

SHOOT, I WOULD VOTE BEN.

>> TIMING IS EVERYTHING IN THIS GAME.

AND IT COULD BE THE TIME TO VOTE BEN OUT, BECAUSE HE HAS MADE BIG

DECISION, AND HE HAS BEEN THE KING IN HIS ROUNDTABLE AND ALL

THAT STUFF.

YOU KNOW WHY DON'T JOE AND MIKE USE THE VOTES WE NEED TO USE

THEM.

ME, AND YOU AND DEVON NEED THE TALK ABOUT US THREE, VOTE BEN

OUT.

>> RIGHT NOW IT'S BEN, MYSELF, LAUREN, AND DEVON.

AND JOE IS THE ONE WE'RE VOTING OUT, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE BEN WOULD

BE A HUGE THREAT AT THE END, AND I REALIZE THAT THIS GAME YOU

HAVE TO BE AGGRESSIVE, AND I'M STARTING TO DO THAT.

>> IT'S NOTHING AGAINST BEN, BUT HE'LL WIN.

>> TAKING OUT THE STRONGER PLAYERS IS I THINK... BEN COULD

GO HOME TONIGHT.

THIS COULD BE OUR CHANCE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.

>> I AM CONSIDERING AN ALTERNATIVE PLAN ABOUT GETTING

BEN OUT.

>> ARE YOU SERIOUS?

>> YES.

>> OH, MY GOSH.

WOW.

>> SHHH.

THAT'S A MOVE RIGHT THERE FOR BOTH OF US.

>> YEAH.

>> BEN'S THINKING OF BIG MOVES.

BEN IS DANGEROUS.

>> AND IT WOULD HAVE TO BE 100% A BLINDSIDE.

>> I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S BETWEEN BEN AND JOE.

>> WHICH ONE DO YOU THINK?

>> THIS IS HARD.

THIS IS A DIFFICULT DECISION.

I'M HAVING A HARD TIME HERE THINKING.

>>THIS VOTE IS NOT AN EASY ONE.

BEN IS INCLUDED IN OUR ALLIANCE, BUT I REALIZE THAT BEN IS A BIG

THREAT.

I NEED TO MAKE BIG MOVES IN THIS GAME TO SUCCEED, SO I GOT TO

KEEP DOING WHAT I'M DOING, AND I GOT TO BE RUTHLESS, BUT ALSO I

HAVE TO BE SMART AND MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION.

>> Jeff: WE NOW BRING IN THE MEMBERS OF OUR JURY.

DESI, COLE, AND J.P. VOTED OUT AT THE LAST TRIBAL COUNCIL.

MIKE, LET'S START WITH YOU.

YOU WALK INTO TRIBAL DOWN SILL, DAY, 30 SMILING.

>> I'M JUST LOVING IT, JEFF.

I MEAN, I'M LIVING A DREAM.

I'M STILL HERE.

MY TRIBE VIBES ME.

I VIBE THEM.

I THINK I'M DOING PRETTY GOOD.

>> Jeff: CHRISSY, YOU HAD A LITTLE BIT OF THAT EXCITEMENT

TODAY.

YOU WIN THIS CHALLENGE, AND YOU SAID 16 YEARS BEEN WAITING ON

THIS MOMENT.

>> I STARTED TRYING TO PLAY THIS GAME IN 2001.

I FINALLY GOT THE DREAM, AND THEN I GOT TO WIN INDIVIDUAL

IMMUNITY SOME YOU CAN'T HELP BUT BE JOYFUL EVEN AT A TIME LIKE

TRIBAL COUNCIL WHERE SOMEBODY HAS TO GO HOME AND IT VERY WELL

COULD HAVE BEEN ME HAD I NOT HAD THIS BEAUTIFUL NECKLACE ON MY

NECK.

>> Jeff: JOE, CAN YOU RELATE THE CRISIS.

EVEN THOUGH TRIBAL IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE VOTED OUT, BUT THERE

IS THIS EXCITEMENT THAT THIS IS WHERE THE GAME IS WON AND LOST.

>> TRIBAL IS EXCITING BECAUSE WE WANT TO SEE HOW STRONG OUR

ALLIANCES ARE AND HOW THIS GAME IS GOING TO GO.

ARE PEOPLE GOING TO PLAY SAFE OR BE RISKY.

>> Jeff: BEN, JOE REALLY SAID SOMETHING INTERESTING.

AT TRIBAL IS WHERE YOU REALLY TEST THOSE ALLIANCES.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

LAST WEEK CHRISSY, RYAN, AND MYSELF WERE BLIND SIDED.

THE THREE ROGUE NIGHTS AND THE TWO JESTERS HAVE FORMED UP, AND

LOOKS LIKE I'M PROBABLY GOING HOME TONIGHT, JEFF.

>> Jeff: RYAN, SO BEN IS BEING PRETTY CLEAR THAT HE BELIEVES

YOU, HIMSELF, AND CHRISSY ARE IN TROUBLE, AND NOW IT'S NOT A

SEVEN, IT'S A FIVE.

>> I THINK BEN PUT IT PERFECTLY.

YOU HAVE MIKE AND JOE IN THE MIDDLE, AND THREE PEOPLE TOOK

ADVANTAGE OF THEM.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS COMPLACENCY ON OUR PART OR JUST

COMFORTABILITY WITHIN THE SEVEN THAT WE FELT.

>> Jeff: OWE IS ALREADY SHAKING YOUR HEAD.

WHY ARE YOU SHAKING YOUR HEAD?

>> IT WAS NEVER A SEVEN.

BEN FAILED TO REALIZE HE WASN'T KING BEN WITH SIX KNIGHTS.

HE WAS KING BEN WITH QUEENS AND KINGS AROUND HIM.

HE PUT HIS GUARD DOWN AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED.

>> Jeff: SO DO YOU TAKE A LITTLE JOY?

>> A LITTLE?

NO.

I TAKE A LOT OF JOY.

>> I THINK "SURVIVOR" IS ONE OR LOST BY ALLIANCE MANAGEMENT.

I DON'T THINK THEY WERE MANAGING THEIR ALLIANCE APPROPRIATELY.

>> TO ADDRESS JOE'S ANSWER THERE, JEFF, HE CALLED EVERY ONE

OF US PUPPETS, A BUNCH OF GOATS AND SHEEP AND STUFF LIKE, THAT

BUT NOW HE'S SITTING HERE CALLING HIS ALLIANCE KINGS AND

QUEENS BECAUSE HE'S KNOWS HE'S ON THE BOTTOM.

>> Jeff: MIKE, BEN IS BASICALLY SAYING, NOW YOU'RE IN

A GROUP, BUT YOU'RE STILL ON THE BOTTOM BECAUSE YOU AND THE OTHER

COCONUT ARE THE FREELANCERS.

>> YOU CAN SEE WE'RE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE GROUP, BUT THERE

IS AN EQUAL EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION FROM ALL FIVE OF US

EVERY TIME WE GET TOGETHER.

JUST BECAUSE WE'RE THE NEWEST MEMBERS DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE THE

LEAST IMPORTANT MEMBERS OF THE ALLIANCE.

>> HE'S RIGHT, LOOKING FROM THE OUTSIDE IN, THEY'RE TRYING TO

FIND CRACKS.

BUT I FEEL THIS IS A TRUE ALLIANCE AND RIGHT NOW WHAT'S

BEST FOR US IS TO STICK TOGETHER.

>> BUT THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT WAS CRITICIZED ABOUT OUR OLD

ALLIANCE, AND NOW THAT THERE'S A FIVE-PERSON ALLIANCE INSTEAD OF

A SEVEN, IT'S A VERY TIGHT DIVERSION FROM WHAT HAS BEEN

SAID BELIEVE TRIBAL COUNCILS BY THESE EXACT PEOPLE.

>> I LIKE THEY TRY THE SAY THEY DID IT WITH SEVEN AND WE DID IT

WITH FIVE AND WHY WOULD WE EXPECT SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

I LOOK AT IT LIKE TWO SURGEONS GO INTO THE OPERATING ROOM TO DO

THE SAME OPERATION AND THERE IS A DIFFERENT OUTCOME?

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?

THEY'RE DIFFERENT SURGEONS.

BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T DO IT RIGHT DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO

DO IT RIGHT.

>> Jeff: DEVON, IT'S LIKE "SURVIVOR" IS A WHITE BOARD AND

YOU LAY OUT YOUR WHOLE PLAN AND THE MINUTE YOU DO ONE PLAN, YOU

HAVE TO ERASE IT AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE A BRAND-NEW PLAN HOUR BY

HOUR.

>> YEAH, EVERY TRIBAL COUNCIL IS A COMPLETELY NEW PLAN.

AND EVERY TIME YOU VOTE SOMEONE OFF, THAT COULD AFFECT YOUR GAME

PLAN AND TURN IT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DIRECTION.

>> Jeff: ASHLEY, ARE YOU SURPRISED AT HOW MUCH OF THIS

GOES ON IN "SURVIVOR," OR WERE YOU ABLE TO ANTICIPATE IT JUST

FROM BEING A FAN?

>> I THINK THE AMOUNT OF UPS AND DOWNS IN THIS GAME IS IMPOSSIBLE

TO ANTICIPATE, BUT IT IS ALL A TEST OF ALLIANCES, SO YOU HAVE

TO REALLY PAY ATTENTION BECAUSE THE UPS AND DOWNS ARE CONSTANT

>> SO CHRISSY, WE'RE DOWN TO EIGHT.

AT WHAT POINT DOES IT FEEL LIKE MAYBE YOU CAN'T PENETRATE AN

ALLIANCE.

THERE'S JUST NOT ENOUGH TIME AND NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE LEFT?

>> I THINK THAT EVEN IF AN ALLIANCE IS STRONG, YOU ALWAYS

KEEP TRYING TO LOOK FOR THOSE CRACKS.

YOU KNOW, I SUPPOSE THE TIME THAT YOU CAN'T PENETRATE ANY

LONGER IS WHEN THE NEXT TRIBAL COUNCIL BEGINS.

>> TRIBAL COUNCIL IS LIKE PROM.

YOU GO WITH SOMEBODY YOU THINK YOU REALLY LIKE.

AT THE END OF THE NIGHT YOU MAY LEAVE WITH SOMEBODY ELSE.

NOW, I'VE NEVER BEEN TO PROM, BUT I CAN IMAGINE THAT'S WHAT

IT'S LIKE.

>> Jeff: SO JOE, FOR MANY TRIBALS YOU'VE BEEN HANGING ON

THE EDGE OF THE MOUNTAIN.

DO YOU FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE TONIGHT?

>> YEAH, I THINK THIS IS FIRST TIME IN TRIBAL I FEEL

COMFORTABLE.

YOU KNOW, AND TONIGHT I DON'T HAVE AN IDOL, SO, YEAH, I MEAN,

I TRUST THE FIVE THAT I'M WITH.

>> Jeff: SO BEN, THAT'S A PRETTY CLEAR STATEMENT THAT OUR

ALLIANCE IS BUILT BETTER THAN THE OTHER ALLIANCE WAS BUILT.

AND THAT'S WHY IT'S MORE POWERFUL AND GOING TO STICK

TOGETHER.

>> JEFF, THAT'S WHAT EVERY COMFORTABLE ALLIANCE SAYS IN

THIS GAME, AND JUST LIKE US, EVERY COMFORTABLE ALLIANCE GETS

BLIND SIDED.

>> Jeff: ALL RIGHT.

IT IS TIME TO VOTE.

MIKE, YOU'RE UP.

MIKE, YOU'RE UP.

>> YOU'RE A DANGEROUS PLAYER, SO NOW IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GO

HOME.

>> Jeff: I'LL GO TALLY THE VOTES.

IF ANYONE HAS A HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL AND YOU WANT THE PLAY IT,

NOW WOULD BE THE TIME TO DO SO.

>> JEFF.

I'M PLAYING IT.

IT'S FOR ME.

>> Jeff: THIS IS A HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL.

ANY VOTES CAST FOR RYAN WILL NOT COUNT.

I'LL READ THE VOTES.

FIRST VOTE RYAN.

DOES NOT COUNT.

RYAN.

DOES NOT COUNT.

ASHLEY.

ASHLEY.

TWO VOTES ASHLEY.

JOE.

THAT'S TWO VOTES ASHLEY, ONE VOTE JOE.

JOE.

TWO VOTES ASHLEY, TWO VOTES JOE.

JOE.

THAT'S THREE VOTES JOE, TWO VOTES ASHLEY.

ONE VOTE LEFT.

11th PERSON VOTED OUT AND THE FOURTH MEMBER OF OUR JURY.

JOE, YOU NEED TO BRING ME YOUR TORCH.

>> GOOD PLAY, Y'ALL.

YOU'RE GOOD PLAYERS.

>> GOOD GAME, JOE.

>> THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLY TIGHT ALLIANCE.

>> Jeff: JOE, THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN.

TIME FOR YOU TO GO.

>> THANK YOU.

>> Jeff: WELL, THAT'S TWO TRIBALS IN A ROW WHERE

EVERYTHING IS NOT WHAT IT SEEM, WHICH IS WHY THIS GAME IS SO

MUCH FUN TO WATCH AND SO DIFFICULT TO PLAY.

GRAB YOUR TORCHES.

HEAD BACK TO CAMP.

GOOD NIGHT.

FROM OUR NEXT EPISODE.

>> Jeff: NEXT TIME ON "SURVIVOR," YOU WILL BE RUNNING

IN PAIRS WITH YOUR LOVED ONES.

LOVE BRINGS EVERYONE TOGETHER.

BUT IT'S EVERY MAN FOR THEMSELVES.

>> SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY GOING ON AROUND HERE.

COMMUNITY NECKLACE?

I HAVE TO DO WHATEVER I HAVE TO DO TO KEEP MYSELF IN THIS GAME.

>> OH.

THEY DEFINITELY GOT ME.

IT WAS A GOOD CALL ON THEIR PART.

WE HAD AN ALLIANCE OF FIVE, AND OBVIOUSLY THEY REALLY DIDN'T

WANT ME IN THAT ALLIANCE.

THEY JUST NEEDED NUMBERS.

BUT I SAID LIKE I SAYS I WAS GOING THE PLAY.

I PLAYED AGGRESSIVE.

I FOUND A COUPLE IDOLS.

I PLAYED MY GAME.

KUDOS TO THEM.

I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHO IS IN THE FINAL THREE.
