Back from tribal council, Russell (the devil) admits that he had no choice but to vote Ben. Jaison, in his individual interview, saying coming on Survivor is the worst decision of his life. (Then why didn’t he just volunteer to be voted out?)
At Galu, Erik tries to get info from Shambo about the immunity idol. He believes that if one is hidden at Foa Foa, another one should be hidden at their own camp. Then John shows up from nowhere, and Shambo easily gives up what she learned from the note she was given. That’s a really dumb move, she has no alliance in this tribe, Erik or John could easily turn against her at any time.
Both tribes get their tree mails. Each leader much choose two people to go on a quest, which might get them some rewards. Mick, leader of Foa Foa, takes Russell (the devil) and Natalie with him. While Russell (the good) of Galu takes Shambo and Dave. Six people arrive at the beach for the quest, but Jeff doesn’t show up. There is a cage with chickens in it and a pirate chest, but no judge to give them directions. Then, after a few minutes, Russell (the devil) heads towards the chest and everyone react after him. The girls goes for the chichen, Shambo catches two while Natalie only gets one. They then find purple and yellow balls and instrucions for a challenge in the chest.
Still, there is no Jeff. And he doesn’t show up through the whole challenge.
The reward challenge is a bocce game. Each tribe’s members throw their balls towrds a pole, and the one that gets nearest to the pole wins. Russell (the devil) seems to be quite good at this, and it looks like Foa Foa is finally back on track. However Dave destroys their morale again, the last ball he throws lands right next to the pole. Galu wins again, and Foa Foa go back to camp empty handed.
While the others are out for the challenge, Erik tries to distract other people at camp with some jobs, and starts to look for the idol when they are away or sleeping. John finds out what he is doing, but he pretends to sleep and keeps silence later on.
Shambo gets screwed. What’s worse, she let a chicken get out of the cage by accidence and the whole tribe fails to catch it back. Just a reminder, she lost some of the fishing gear in episode 2. More tribe members are targeting her now. She better start praying.
We are happy to see Jeff again at the immunity challenge. Galu sits out Shambo, Laura, Dave, and Russell. In this challenge, each tribe must first race through a net course with blocks in hand, and stack them up when they reach a mat. Then they will race through a rope bridge and untie two bags of blocks and stack them up again.
Galu takes an early lead, again. But Foa Foa just falls behind for a few seconds. Then at the rope bridge, Monica struggle very hard, giving Foa Foa quite a lot time to catch up. And no one could imagine how agile Russell (the devil) moves across that rope bridge. It was fun to watch!
It’s neck and neck at the second mat. Jaison’s height ends up being quite an advantage for Foa Foa. Heidi just stands on him and stacks up the blocks with no difficulties. Foa Foa finaly wins their first challenge.
Monica’s miserable performance in the challenge makes her a target for elemination. Russell makes it clear that he will vote her out. But Yasmin’s laziness at camp seems to make her a bigger target. Russell is pissed off when he heard Yasmin’s on the chopping block. Good news is, Shambo’s safe.
Right before the tribal council, it seems that the tribe dares not turn against Russell.
Yasmin and Monica are the focus of tribal council. First Yasmin is called out for doing nothing at camp, and she fights back, saying that she has done quite well in the challenges. She then turns to Monica, while Monica defends that she did a good job in the challenge.
Then it’s voting time, and surprisingly Yasmin gets all the votes except Shambo’s. Wonder why Russell changed his mind in the last minute.
