Original subtitles

Previously on Survivor, at Samburu, the gap between young and old widened when

Silas took sides with his own generation.

Straddling the fence is over. I am no longer with the older people, and I

don't care if they know that. They're immature.

They're trying to get under their skin, and it's working. Buran rebounded from

their losing streak, winning their first reward challenge.

Then they bared all to claim immunity, sending Samburu to their first tribal

council, where the young-old split caused a deadlock tie between Lindsey

and Carl.

With no previous votes between them to break the tie, a sudden death

competition sent Carl packing.

True.

The tribe has spoken.

And Lindsey returned to camp with four votes.

13 are left.

Tonight, one more will go.

All right, make that fire big.

Big fire.

Porches by the flag?

Yeah. Well, we had our first tribal council. We voted dock off.

All eight of us went in there, split four and four.

I'm still here, and I'm smiling big.

Anything could have happened. It was literally a crapshoot.

Whoever won, won that tribal council, basically won the majority, and

basically more or less took over the tribe.

This is the deal. If you guys want to go to the water hole or whatever, We

understand that. But, I mean, just, you know, let us know and we'll go. We'll

either go as a group or you guys can go.

And the people that get up right away need to just be patient for those that

need a little extra sleep that may have stayed up a little bit later.

By the time I got back to camp, I felt really angry, just like it all hit me,

just like, oh, my God, they picked me, those bastards.

You know, and I just got really angry and I just wanted to lash out and just

be mad at those three people for voting for me. Seriously pumped to get an award

tomorrow. Seriously pumped.

And trust me, when I'm pumped, you don't want to fuck with me.

Don't underestimate me, people.

The thing about Lindsay, of course she handled it wrong. We needed their

support, and we needed to be kind to them, but, boy, she really just kind of

flew off, you know, the deep end. Trust me.

It was difficult hearing comments when they came back, like Lindsay was saying,

they fucked with the wrong girl, and comments like, okay, so come here, team,

and they really meant the four of them.

Tomorrow morning we are like a full-on team again, so let's just have one more

moment.

There was no accident because I was standing right there where Silas was

over by the fire and they got him. And I thought, oh, God, that's mean.

Tomorrow is a new day.

It can be.

It's got to be.

It don't got to be. I mean, it can be.

Now it's a new day.

Yeah, sure, we're outnumbered four to three, but basically they run the show,

you know.

Damn you, Carol, for leaving me with a bunch of misfits, you know, to go

camping with, because it's going to be pretty miserable the next couple of

days.

18.

18? That's for you.

Yeah.

How's it looking?

Looks like we don't have as much as we thought we had. That was very generous

in the beginning.

Very good. Breakfast is served.

Breakfast of champions.

You know, I worry about Tommy. Tommy's not eating.

A lot of what we have to eat is cornmeal, and he has a really tough time

eating it. I don't think it's a taste thing. He physically just doesn't like

the way it goes down.

All it is, really, is just grits, like you would serve it with breakfast.

Well, grits...

It's a nice thought for this stuff, but going down a hatch, it reminds you

more of something that rhymes with grits.

But basically, no grits.

We've got to find a little something we can munch on.

You hit that?

I hit that.

You sure you hit that?

Hell yeah, I thought you'd watch me. The big country bear saw the palm trees.

The palm trees have what's called a dome palm fruit on it. The palm tree that

Tommy found was about 50 feet in the air.

He was silly enough to think he was going to climb it.

Tommy, Tommy, hell no, hell no. Get down, man.

Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. Your big country ass is climbing a tree in the middle of

Africa. You realize that, don't you?

You come down.

I thought he was nuts.

So finally he got down and we just

started throwing rocks at it trying to get something to happen.

And we actually got two of them down. Look at Tom!

And then after that, we've hammered ourselves to death trying to get the

daggone thing open.

Looks like you're getting a nice slice there.

Throwing for over 30 minutes, getting two, then taking 20 minutes to open one.

We had something about the size of your thumb there that you could eat.

In my opinion, it ain't worth it. I mean it's not as good as coconut.

It's got a bad aftertaste.

I had mentioned it to Linda and Teresa. I said I was taking it out of fifth gear

as far as responsibility, you know, accountability, organizing things. And I

was going to sit back. They're the majority. Let's see how they run a

household.

Let's see. We have mail.

When Frank and I got mail this morning, I was loving it.

Oh, yeah, that was great.

If anything, that'll drill in the, you can't just sleep late. Our water is low.

Now we don't have time to get to the water hole.

Hey, guys.

Hate to wake you up.

We got mail.

And we got 30 minutes.

Oh, my God.

We were sleeping late, and Linda had gotten tree mail and came up and woke us

up and said we had a half an hour to go to our reward challenge, which was just

huge and shocking. So we'd all gotten up, and we're all very groggy and

cranky. Who would like to read? You read it, you read it. No, no, no.

Why don't one of you read it?

You'll have to decide how high you should climb.

But if your team's better and quick like a spider,

you'll be celebrating as your bellies get

wider. Oh!

Rise and shine!

It's a beautiful day.

Let's make it happen, dude.

It's a food reward.

Anybody hungry?

And we tried to sleep in, and we were awakened, and now we're struggling to

get our bearings.

All right, guys, this is a reward, baby. This is a big one.

Frank, come here. Linda.

Hey, you guys come here for a second.

Come here, Frank, for just a second, man.

Guys, you know what? Dead gum it, man. I know last night was a,

you know, we went in there 50-50. I realize the situation right now, guys.

Let's come together right now as a team. I mean, we're so unorganized right now,

you know, and we're so... Still.

Still. Still.

Silas with the knee, I've seen him on the knee twice, and I looked at that,

and I guess, I don't know, that's like a football thing where the coach gets down

and just whatever.

Maybe it's genuine. It seemed so cheesy to me. Let's get fired up here and win

this. Can I make one suggestion?

Please, please do.

Please. If there were several things last night that were stated, and what

that did, that, you know, we were all willing to do this, totally willing to

do this. I know. And that made it go... You have to understand this, though,

too, Linda. That's all. What if that was you on the cutting board? There's no way

I would have come back and said...

to the three people, hey, team, team, come here. And there's no way I would

have said, with that girl, revenge, revenge.

There's no way I would have disrespected any of you that way. No way.

Kim, you know. It's over.

We're coming together now. It's over.

Thank you!

So I'm sorry that it happened.

Yeah, we got to go.

You know what, Linda? I've been dying to be on this team.

Let's discuss this chapter.

Linda, this morning, really came unglued. She has two very, very

different sides.

It's like this sweet, little New England mom.

And then there's this, I don't know, crazy woman side, too.

I'm ready to be on the team.

Ready to be on the team, honey. Can I have a hug? You're even hesitating. Give

me a hug.

You know, why can't you hug me?

Can we demonstrate a hug?

This is a hug, sweetie.

Did your mama never hug you?

There you go.

They were saying, oh, it was just because anger and like, let it go. I'm

like, okay, great. Let it go.

Let's hug. And her arms went like this. And she has, she got that look in her

eyes. Like, like, I don't know. I had a knife in my hand or she was going to, it

was, it was, it was awfully strange.

Why don't you give me a real hug?

It was hard.

The whole situation was hard. Okay, you're not ready to. I understand. I

respect that. I saw a side to you that I'm really nervous about.

Well, you know what anger is? Anger is a cover-up for sadness.

Whenever we're angry, sadnesses get there. Well, it's funny. I think it's,

you know, no matter if it went the other way.

It's all right.

Just try it. Just try it. But I respect your space.

Just everything sort of hit me this morning, and I just started to cry

because I felt just...

i felt sectioned out of my little group even though they're totally supportive

of me i felt like the older group picked me and how can i face them again and i

just felt sad

good

morning guys

How's the cornmeal taste? Getting a little bland? Getting.

It was bland to begin with.

All right, hopefully we can do a little something about that today. Today's

challenge is a food reward.

Behind us, on a rope web, 12 items that will dramatically improve your meals.

Things like olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes.

So a big food reward. Here's how it works. One at a time, tribe members are

going to make their way up the ramp, across the netting, and up the rope web.

You're going to grab one item, bring it back. Once you cross the line, the next

person goes. The first tribe to get all items back in their basket wins the food

reward.

Losers get squat.

Make sense?

Wait for my go.

Here we go, guys.

Survivors ready?

Go! Go, B!

Go, B!

Vroom!

Ready for your second run. You're still neck and neck.

Zamburu, it's your last basket. Ron, still got two.

A lot of stuff in there.

We'll take your prize home, have a good meal. I'll see you guys tomorrow for

immunity. All right, see you guys.

We lost

the challenge.

Unfortunately, you know, It came down to Kim went really slow.

I feel terrible for her. She couldn't feel good, and I know she doesn't feel

good. And it's hard.

It must be really... I'm glad I'm not in that situation.

Sorry. You did a great job.

Well, also, I mean, I don't like to be that terrible at something.

That's like really terrible. You know, we all fell.

We all took our time. Every one of us fell down. We all said, you know, good

job. You did the best you could. But, you know, really, she's like, I suck.

And I'm like, you suck.

I could tell from your faces everybody gave it their 100%. You know, in

competition, it's not about giving it your best sometimes. Sometimes it's

about actual winning.

I just got to hope we get out there and get them next time. Let's just drink a

lot.

I wonder what immunity is going to be. I don't know.

The thing that was most difficult about today's challenge was my having to face

the reality that Kim is definitely not up to some of the more physical

challenges. There's nothing good about losing, Lex. Nothing.

If our team is just real losers and we lose everything, that's going to be

awful.

This morning was a little tense, but we really pulled together today, and we won

some food. And all in all, it was an unbelievable victory today.

So it boosted up morale, boosted spirits, boosted everything, confidence.

It was a good thing.

Let's pull them out one at a time and tell me what it is.

We've got golden chicken blend.

Nice. Spice. Oh, to put in the mush.

Olive oil.

Yeah, olive oil. The basket we won was just amazing.

We won soup mix, you know, rice.

We won, like, jelly.

They put on stuff. I mean, it's flavor for the food that we have.

And that's key.

When we fry up our krispies, we have avo to fry.

I cannot be any more excited about the fact that we got food, unless it was

water. I would give it all up for water. We do a water run right now as a team.

We're going to have a huff of a hike, though. We're carrying all three big

gores, all the water gores. We should take some rests, I think. Sure.

One of the big focuses in our group is water, obviously. We have to go get the

water. We have to boil the water.

Frank and Doc were the two people who took that under their wing. They were

kind of the water people getting the water going.

And our group was going, they're doing all the work.

fine with us. We won't do any of it. We were more focused on the split in the

tribe and manipulating people and doing that than we were about any other part

of surviving out here.

You take a breather. I'll fill this one. We'll rotate through fillers here

because I know you and Linda usually fill these things.

We were in a real water crunch. I mean, we were all dehydrated from the

challenge severely.

And I'm sure to prove a point to us, Frank and Linda and T let the water

level get

Completely gone. Come on, guys. Last leg. We're almost there.

We're just going with the flow.

And we came home, lost another pot completely.

Pots are extremely vital because that's the only way we have to have clean

drinking water. We have to boil it.

Is it leaking right now?

Yeah. One of our pots now is completely unusable, and the other one is still on

its side, and it's crumbling. Every time we put it in the fire, it crumbles more

and more.

Let's fill it up. Who's got a gourd?

Things began to slack off. The water rations went down. My plan of attack was

to let the comfort level drop completely low, and I know they would break down.

And you could see that things were falling apart.

Oh, my gosh.

Guys, we're in a heap of trouble.

We now have completely shattered all of our pots.

So it's a horrible situation that we got ourselves into.

We are not in good shape, boys and girls. I'll just say that right now.

We'll make do. We'll make do.

It's still like, God, this tribe, can we get our act together?

You know, there's still that hanging over my head, like, what is wrong with

us? You know, we crack pots, we whine, we complain, we have problems, people

are fighting, da-da-da-da, whatever.

And I'm like, God, when are we going to get this together?

What's up ahead, Tom?

Sometimes you do get comfortable a little bit comfortable here and you know

you think you're all safe and everything's great And then you get a

wake-up call Had his eyes up thank God

We've all

done our homework, and we all know that that is the one animal that we need to

be most careful of. It's considered to be the most dangerous animal in Africa.

It was scary, and it was there, and it was huge. So when we saw this thing, we

made a lot of noise.

And then we realized at that point we needed to leave the springs.

You want to head a little left, Tommy? Y'all all in agreement that we should go

a little bit left?

I can still see him too. I don't want to move.

Not a single one of us came here thinking that all of this

danger was going to be real. Our camp's right over there to the left. We're

finding on a daily basis we're having these kind of sobering experiences that

remind us every day that we need to respect the land and that this whole

thing is very real.

Danger is here.

Bad temper.

Bad neighbors.

Good morning, Kent Samburu.

Rise and shine, don't plug into curling irons. I had no beauty contest this

morning, just a little watering hole I conditioned.

This morning, I took a long shot. First thing before the sun even got up, I got

them up. The water thing, I can't ignore.

Believe me, if it was just me and them, I'd let them fall flat on their faces.

I don't give a damn, you know, but I can't do that to Teresa and Linda. I

feel compelled to, you know, want to protect and make life easy for them as

well. You can take a nice little morning hike. You got it. Get it out of the way.

Life's nice and cool, all right?

Come on, guys.

Frank, we just hit the snooze button.

Oh, don't tell me you guys are those snooze button type of people.

No, you don't need a snooze button. You've been sleeping most of your lives.

Come on, it's getting hot already.

Who agreed on this?

Shut up. Shut up.

I know, I know.

We'll just buy a little more time. I know, then we don't have to.

Living like nomads means

moving around.

Do well at this challenge, you may stick around.

Now if you fall behind and the other tribe wins, it's immunity for them.

As your hike to council begins.

It is physical, but I'm sure you have to do...

Smarts with it too. It isn't just brute like pushing a rock

All

right,

first thing I need to do take back the immunity idol give it up clearance

Immunity back at stake again today for today's immunity challenge We're going

to look to our African hosts for a little inspiration.

The tribes of East Africa are nomadic, thus they are constantly relocating

their camp.

That's what you guys are going to do today.

Each tribe has a camp with a hut, an animal pen, flagpole, and various camp

supplies. First tribe to relocate their camp up to your new home 200 yards up

the hill and recreate it exactly as it is here wins immunity.

Here are the rules.

Two members from each tribe will be your architects.

Their job is to remember how the camp looks here and to make sure that it gets

recreated exactly the same way in your new home. They will not help move the

camp. They will be up at the new location.

And they can only help you rebuild once your pieces have been placed inside your

circle. The other members will be responsible for actually physically

relocating the camp.

Last rule.

The flagpole is the last thing you put in.

Samburu, because you guys are still one member ahead, somebody's sitting out.

Once you've made that decision, send that person with your architects to the

top of the hill.

All right, Samburu, you're sitting out Teresa.

Brandon and Linda will be your architects.

Ron, you've selected Kelly and Kim as your architects.

All right, architects are in place at the top of the hill.

Immunity at stake. Survivors ready?

Go!

Lift it up.

Lift it up.

One more.

One more. Come on.

Let's go.

I got it.

Just go!

Move it!

Come on, let's go!

Turn, turn, turn!

Back it up, back it up!

A little back this way.

Move, Frank!

Move!

Let's go!

Drop, drop, drop!

Lift it up!

What about the basket free?

Wait, wait, wait.

Come on, you're doing great. This is excellent.

Let's go.

Kim, get on it with your shoulders. I have it.

Excellent work.

Good job, Tim.

Sam burrow you still need the walls to your hut I

don't

know where I'm going so leave me the victory guys

Okay. All right.

Up, up, up. Yeah, you guys are doing great.

Up. Up.

Lift.

Lift. The other floor.

Somebody help. Brandon, help me on the other floor.

No pegs. Just set it in there. Set it in.

That's it.

Your house is good.

Drop it.

Grab it. Grab it.

Everybody in the circle before you put that flag in, Tom.

We're on.

God keeps immunity.

See

you

guys tomorrow night at tribal council.

more than

Happy birthday.

This morning, Frank's birthday, gave him a birthday hug and he was whittling on

his torch and he was carving his children and his wife's name.

I thought that was just beautiful.

I grabbed my tribal council torch. I wanted my wife and two daughters,

Jocelyn and Sage's name to be on that for not only now the strength, but even

when I leave, you know, I want it to be carried with me. They were with me all

the time.

So that was important to me to do that.

I'll tell you one thing.

We could have used Carl yesterday.

We might have won.

Oh, yeah.

That's your tactic today. We're wondering about that.

But I think you can get to the merge, buddy.

And you get there, fly low.

You can get there. I get there, I think I'm going to go behind it in the lines.

Are you?

Just to steer it.

What a change, what a difference.

Kicked ass in that challenge and we won and it saved Kim's life.

Words can't express how happy I am. I mean, I could just stand here and cry.

I'm so happy.

And the thing that makes me really happy is that I think they're all happy about

it, even personally for me.

We had won immunity and...

The other team was going to the tribal council. So we had the whole day to

ourselves, no chores.

So we decided to explore a little bit.

When our tribe climbed up that mountain, you know, I got that feeling back about

why, what was really important and why I was there.

Everyone's happy and the tribe's happy and we're all having fun.

And it was just... So pleasant. It was like, we're here, like we're in Africa.

It's obviously D-Day.

We go to tribal council this evening.

We know it's either going to be myself, T, or Frank that's going to go.

I wish it had been me. It wouldn't have bothered me at all.

I was just kind of sitting there relaxing, and everyone started opening

up very neutrally and casually.

I think tonight will be better. I think we're calmer, and we're going to

understand what's going on a little bit better, and I won't be voted out.

So who's going tonight?

Because we're so open. Yeah, I like that.

I know this sounds crazy. We know it's one of us.

Wouldn't you rather know if it's going to be you? We're not going to tell you.

It doesn't matter.

Hold up, because I agree with Brandon.

I don't want the day to be bad.

Let me throw this out, and I don't want the day to be bad anyway.

Let's just be real here that we're playing a game.

Lindsay already has four votes against her. If you ever go into a tribal

council with a tie like myself and someone else, the tiebreaker is who has

the most votes is out. None of us have one vote against us. Not one.

Except for Lindsay. Except for Lindsay.

This is the key.

This is the key.

I never thought I'd say, vote for me three times tonight. Come on.

But it'll help us. It'll help us in the end as long as I don't get voted for.

You know, once the merger happens.

Whoever's being voted off tonight should vote for Lindsay. And what's in it for

us? Nothing.

Please stick with us on this. And just think about it and vote for Lindsay.

I'll be honest. I care. But like if I'm the person who's going this evening.

I'm not going to do that.

Because there's totally been nothing for me.

Well, they wouldn't say who's going tonight, but they had a plan they wanted

us to follow.

You know, us.

Now, it's just, it's funny.

Would you rather bring the whole ship down with you, or would you rather save

the ship? The whole ship's not coming down. This is the point, Linda. I do not

want to see Silas win the million dollars. I can see any of the other

three win the million dollars. I don't want him winning the million dollars.

I don't trust him at all.

There's something up there.

I'm not even sure of his name. There's just something not quite right.

One of the three of you has to go. I don't know, Frank and Linda, how you

guys feel.

If I'm going, I'd rather know.

The minute we said we told you and we were about to be honest with you, you

said, what's in it for me?

So why in the world would you go ahead and finish them? That was a bitter taste

in the mouth right there. I really don't know which way they're going, but...

I guess there's a reason they could keep each one of us and a reason they could

decide to take each one of us off. Let's drop this.

Let's drop this.

There's not an event in the future that would alarm me.

I can't wait till the merge because I plan on winning this. You might as well

write the check and hand it to me because I'm shooting for the stars and

I'm going to get there.

Well, guys, we're back for a second time in a row.

Let's go back to the first time you were here.

Pretty intense dialogue was had. When you went back to camp that night, was

there any of the bonding that you guys talked about making the tribe one again?

The first night, you know, there was some emotional times right after the

council. Feelings were hurt. You know, none of us know how it feels except

Lindsey to get a vote against you.

And so that was hard, Jeff.

But after that, the second day, much better.

We came together as a unit.

Frank, after the last immunity challenge, you guys knew you were coming

back to tribal council. What happened when you went back to camp? What was the

tone of the tribe? Were you guys concerned?

Well, obviously the three of us, you know, we knew one of us would be going.

Three of you referring to Linda and Teresa. To Linda and Teresa and myself.

There are two tribes within one still.

It's surprising to me because it's the first time I've ever seen this.

I'm trying to figure out where the logic to this is, because going into a merge,

you need numbers.

Is there a sure thing in this whole game, Jeff? Can you tell me one sure

thing about this whole entire game? Just one. Yeah, I can tell you one sure

thing. If Samburo goes into a merge with four people solid and one not solid, and

Baran goes in with five people solid, Samburo's in trouble. That, I can tell

you for certain. Jeff, you need to take into consideration if...

I wasn't here tonight, one of us would be going and do the same thing. It would

be the exact same thing, but reversed.

Frank, anything you can do to turn this game around at this point?

Oh, there's always something to do. It's just waiting for the proper opening, you

know, to happen.

So you have a game plan.

Absolutely. You're sticking to it.

Lindsey, have you made any mistakes so far? Anything that... Oh, tons.

I'm a walking mistake.

You know, when you hear things, oh, you're the one that's next. No, Kim's

next. Oh, no, it's Brandon.

You panic and I brought some negative energy to the group because I was

frustrated and fed up and I freaked out about the whole manipulative process and

the panic attacks and the feelings of anxiety like you're the one that's going

to go next.

And, you know, you lose sight of reality because it's not reality.

It's just a game and we're trying to keep that in perspective and I'm awful

at it because I'm sensitive. I get my feelings hurt.

Brandon, have you ever taken a walk by yourself and thought, okay, wait a

minute. I don't do anything by myself. I'm always with them.

Always. I'm always with them.

These are my friends.

Even besides the game, they're my friends. I'm not changing my mind on any

of that. Yeah, definitely.

It's time to vote.

Lindsay, you're first.

It's a game.

And it's your time to go.

Well, buddy, this is for Carl, for Frank, and for Teresa.

It's only a game. Play nicely.

I'll go tally the votes.

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

the Tribal Council area immediately.

I'll read the votes.

First vote.

Silas.

Silas.

Silas. Three votes, Silas.

Linda.

Linda.

Linda.

Three votes, Silas. Three votes, Linda.

Final vote.

Linda.

Need to bring me a torch.

Play nicely.

Linda.

Travis spoken.

It's time for you to go.

Bye, guys. Bye.

Well, one very clear result of this split within your own tribe is that,

Lindsay, you now have four votes against you.

Silas, you have three votes. It's a lot of votes after only two tribal councils

could most definitely come into play in future votes.

No doubt. We know very well. I'll leave you with this final thought.

Silas you said it best this game changes minute by minute.

It certainly does you guys can head back to camp. I'll see you tomorrow

Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.

Even if you've watched every episode of Survivor, get ready for a Survivor

first.

Every friendship, every alliance will be shattered.

The Survivors thought they knew the game, but the game has changed forever.

Don't miss the first 15 minutes of an all-new Survivor.

Well, it's been an interesting 12 days. I think our vote tonight, the Older

People's Alliance, was very significant.

Honor is very important to us. Integrity is very important to us. To me, it's not

whether you win or lose.

It's how you played the game. I've grown.

I've learned.

It's just been great.

Namaste.
