36x13 - It Is Game Time Kids

[bunniefuu]

Jeff: welcome to the finale
of "survivor: ghost island."

It has been such a fun season.

Tonight we crown a winner.

There is still a lot of game
left to be played, I can

Guarantee you that.

Let's say hello to the stars of
this season over here, the early

Blind sides, they're tough.

We lost some good players
straight out of the gate.

Over here, our jury so far, we
have chris, libby, desiree,

Jenna, michael, chelsea, and
kellyn.

And down here, our final six
still in the game, sebastian,

Domenick, donathan, wendell,
angela, and laurel.

Three of these guys are going to
be voted out and go to the jury.

Three of them will make it to
the end with a shot to wind.

We are live in los angeles.

It's "survivor" finale night.

I love finales.

[Cheering and applause]
all right.

Thank you.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

I love the love.

So look, ghost island,
admittedly a big, some would say

Corny, idea.

The players embraced it.

You guys embraced it.

I'm happy to report, wednesday
night at 8:00, "survivor" is the

Most-watched show of the season.

Thank you.

Because 18 years and 36 seasons,
that's due to your loyalty.

Okay.

Parents, I just want to say
thank you for letting the kids

Stay up late tonight.

I know it's a big deal, and
kids, you got to do your part,

The minute the show is over, you
have to go to bed, otherwise

They won't let you do it next
time.

All right.

Here we go.

It's the finale, "survivor:
ghost island."

35 Days ago these 20 americans
were abandoned in the islands of

Fiji to take part in the
greatest social experiment on

Television.

Now only six players remain.

Sebastian.

For 35 days he has played only
with his heart.

I'm happy, smiley, gigy,
piece of laffey taffy, banana

Flavored.

Jeff: but now with an extra
vote already misplayed once this

Season by kellyn --
oh, hell, yeah.

Jeff: -- he's poised to
make his first big strategic

Move in the game.

Can he reverse the curse?

There's so much adrenaline
rushing through my body.

You know, my chest is...

Everything in my heart is going
to go into winning this game.

Jeff: donathan, he started
the game a fish out of water but

Quickly adapted, becoming part
of a strong four-person

Alliance.

So it's you, me, wendell and
donathan.

We can open this game up.

Jeff: as he enters the
final phase, his game centers

Around truth bombs.

Domenick's going to be hard
the beat at the end.

I'm not voting for you if you
and him sit there.

I'm voting for dom.

Jeff: and causing chaos at
camp and tribal council.

You have some desire the
spew --

When I'm working with people,
I need to be truthful with them.

I'm going to be blunt about it.

Can I say something?

No.

Jeff: will they be his
ticket to the end?

I have nothing to lose at
this point.

If it gets me to day 39, I'll
have a great story to tell for

The jury.

Jeff: laurel, she has built
strong bonds across tribal

Lines.

I love you and wendell.

I would rather work with you
guys.

Jeff: and shown unwavering
loyalty.

Are you 1,000% top four with
us?

Yes.

Jeff: but with the end in
sight, she has a big decision,

Stick with the alliance that got
her this far or cut ties and

Sprint to the end?

It could be the difference
between $1 million and a seat on

The jury.

While it's been great to work

Of the game, now it's the finish
phase.

This is what it all comes down
to.

Now is the time to strike.

Jeff: angela, this w*r
veteran has been on the outside

Of nearly every vote.

Kellyn, that's three, that's
enough.

You need to bring me your torch.

Jeff:but she now finds hersel
position of being a possible

Swing vote.

This is going to happen.

It's going to be epic.

No this could be the break she
needs to get herself to the end

And a shot at the money.

I feel that I'm a little bit
different than most people here.

They're making these
connections.

They're making all these loyal
bonds, but I see them almost as

Collateral damage.

I'm not here to make friends.

I'm not here to make bonds.

I'm here to win $1 million.

Jeff: wendell, his
laid-back style masks a clever

Social game and his partnership
with dom has offered protection.

If we go at each other, we're
both going to die out here.

Yes.

Jeff: but with a hidden
immunity idol and $1 million on

The line, he's a clear threat to
win, and everybody is trying to

Take him out.

I've had my hands on the
wheel, and I've been driving

This thing.

Now it's really the end.

This is the super bowl.

I'm going to put everything into
this.

It's going to be a slug fight.

Jeff: domenick, his brash
style rubbed some the wrong way.

Theson of a b*tch wants me
dead.

He's got to go.

Jeff: but his game play has
been will be trick.

I still think we should do
kellyn before donathan.

Jeff: with real idol and a
fake idol, he has the tools to

Make moves.

Your opportunity to gain power
lice in the ability to use this

Fake idol the fool another
player.

Jeff: but his partnership
with wendell may be his biggest

Obstacle.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to
kick some a*s at final tribal if

I get.

There it's going to be another
challenge, another thing I need

To overcome and see if I really
have what it takes to beat the

Best out here.

Snow and with one last visit to
ghost island and one final $1

Million decision to be made,
this game is still far from

Over.

Who will have what it takes to
outwit, outplay, and outlast all

The rest to claim the $1 million
prize and the title of sole

"Survivor"?

Captioning funded by cbs

That was a fun one.

That was a barn burner I
thought.

At tribal donathan went
bananas.

He almost said, look, I'm
declaring w*r on you guys, and I

Don't want any part of this
alines moving forward.

If he would have told me he
was voting against you, I could

Have got you off of there.

Should have took your shot.

It's just such a wacky
situation because a few minutes

Ago I feel like the guy was
working with us and now he's

Sticking is sword in the sand
and he's saying, I'm ready to

Go.

You almost voted yourself out
of the game.

I don't know why they kept me
tonight, to be honest with you.

They would have voted you out
tonight if they wanted to.

They didn't.

I was nervous tonight, and I
should have been.

I seen my name.

So going into tomorrow I'm still
nervous because I did kind of

Blow their games up tonight, so
they're probably not going to

Work with me no more, but they
don't know what they're dealing

With I guess.

I thought we were voting
donathan.

That's why I was like what
the... So far I've been hiding

Behind the shelter of the big
boys, letting them call the

Shots.

To be honest with you, I'm
getting sick of it.

I'm a big boy, too.

So I got this little vack in --
advantage in my pocket, which is

An extra vote.

I'm just tired of being in their
shadow.

So it might be time to make a
big move.

Okay.

Here's the issue: 24 hours ago
we had donathan voting with us.

I wanted to let don-don have
it, man.

Yeah.

I still don't think it should be
him next.

We know who it needs to be next.

Look, I'm 100% on board.

I was thinking that all night.

Donathan is no threat in any
way.

No.

Dom and I have been working
together but at the same time

Trying to get rid of each other,
but we both have idols in our

Pocket, which makes it very
difficult.

So next best option might be
sebastian, who has played a

Clean, fair game.

Everybody loves him.

Very athletic.

He can win challenges, which
makes him a big threat.

We know what we got to do
today.

I know you're going to put it
all out there.

If you win today, we're both
safe.

Boom.

Exactly.

If he doesn't win, it might
be a true blind side.

If he doesn't win, it might
be a true blind side.

Jeff: come on in, guys.

Oh, my god.

What the hell?

Jeff: the expressions on
your faces as you take in one of

The biggest mazes we've ever
done on "survivor."

All right.

Shalg we get to today's immunity
challenge?

Yeah.

Jeff: first things first,
laurel, I have to take back the

Necklace.

All right.

Jeff: thank you.

Yep.

Jeff: once again immunity
is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, you're
going to race through a giant

Maze collecting bags of puzzle
pieces along the way.

Once you have collected all the
bags, you'll use the pieces

Inside to solve the puzzle.

First to finish wins immunity,
safe at tribal, guaranteed a one

In five shot at getting to the
end.

Losers tribal council where
somebody will become the eighth

Member of our jury.

In addition, you're playing for
reward.

Oh.

We always like, that jeff.

Jeff: the winner of this
challenge will have waiting back

At camp steak dinner, baked
potato, bread, dessert.

Big stakes.

We'll draw for spots.

We'll get started.

You like that?

All right.

Here we go.

For immunity and reward,
survivors ready?

Go!

We're each collecting three bags
of puzzle pieces in the biggest

Maze ever done on "survivor."

Good luck.

Everybody scoping out the maze,
trying to find their path.

You can get lost in a hurry.

This is "survivor" day 36.

It will not be easy.

Laurel is first to her station.

Sebastian is at his first
station.

Domenick at his first station.

Three people at their first bag.

Angela at her first station.

Wendell at his first station.

Once you have the bag untied,
then you got to make your way

Back before you head out again.

Donathan still searching for his
first bag.

Sebastian back with his first
bag.

You can head back out.

How did it get in here?

Jeff: domenick way at the
far end of the course, a long

Way back.

Laurel drops her first bag.

Angela drops her first bag.

Wendell's back with his first
bag.

He can head out.

Everybody looking for their
second bag except domenick, who

Is trying the get back with his
first, and donathan, who has

Nothing.

Wendell sprinting.

Wendell is first to his second
station.

Sebastian right behind.

Sebastian has his second bag.

Laurel at her second station.

Angela at her second station.

Domenick finally gets back.

Laurel, angela, sebastian,
wendell all getting their second

Bag.

Donathan finally gets to his
first station.

There are three bags in total.

You need all three before you
can start working on that

Puzzle.

It is sebastian and wendell both
racing back to the start.

Both guys drop their second
bags.

Laurel drops.

Here comes angela.

Both heading out looking for
their third and final bag.

Domenick has his second bag in
hand.

Now comes the race to get back.

Donathan now heading back out
looking for his second bag.

Sebastian the first to his last
station.

Wendell at his third station.

Laurel at her third station.

Everybody has been neck and
neck.

Sebastian heading back now with

Angela at her third and final
station.

It is sebastian, wendell,
angela, and laurel all in it.

Domenick trying to stay in it.

Donathan trying the get in it.

It's going to be sebastian back
first.

Big time lead.

He's already untying that first
bag.

Immunity on the line.

You do not want to go home
tonight.

Domenick at his third station.

Here comes laurel with her
third.

It is now sebastian and laurel.

Here comes wendell.

Got to get all your pieces on
that table before you can start

Working on the puzzle.

Donathan drops his second bag.

He's got one left.

Domenick back with his third
bag.

You can start working on the
puzzle.

Donathan looking for that third
and final bag.

Everybody else with a big lead.

Not a good feeling with tribal
council tonight.

Nope, it's not.

Jeff: puzzles very
difficult in the beginning.

They get easier as they start
the take shape.

These initial pieces take some
experimenting.

Wendell continues to make
progress.

Sebastian with another piece.

Survive tonight's tribal, an you
make it to that final five,

Where anything can happen.

I made it, jeff.

Jeff: donathan finally
finds his third bag.

The crowd erupts in celebration.

He's back in it.

New york I'm not.

Jeff: wendell with another
piece.

Now wendell in the lead.

Domenick trying the catch
wendell with sebastian trying to

Stay close.

Here comes donathan.

Donathan can empty his bags now
and try to get in it.

Laurel and angela have made
virtually no progress.

Sebastian tries the place
another piece.

Won't fit.

Domenick with another piece.

Wendell places another piece.

Getting closer.

Come trying to pick up the pace
now.

He places another piece.

Wendell calm with another piece.

He's down to handful left.

Dom continues to fight.

Dom with another piece.

Immunity on the line.

Damn.

Jeff: wendell places
another piece.

Got the make sure that puzzle
stays together.

Domenick trying the place
another piece.

Wendell down to one piece left,
but his puzzle is barely staying

Together.

Jeff probst?

Jeff: what?

I think I've got it.

Jeff: wendell wins
individual immunity, safe at

Tribal council, guaranteed a
spot in the final five.

Wendell, come on over.

[Applause]
welcome to the club, brother.

Wendell, your first individual
immunity win, guarantees you a

Spot in the final five.

You will not be voted out
tonight.

You have a steak dinner waiting
for you back at camp.

Choose one person to join you.

You will be rewarding somebody
and fueling your competition at

The same time.

I got to repay the favor.

Sebastian, come on.

Jeff: sebastian, come on
over.

Thanks, buddy.

Jeff: absolutely, bro.

Good news is there is enough
steak for one more person.

Who are you going to choose?

My thought is that I kind of
want to share the wealth a

Little bit.

So I'm going to have to pick
ang.

Jeff: angela, come on over.

Does that surprise you?

Absolutely.

She deserves it, man.

Jeff: laurel, explain the
dynamic.

Some have had food, some
haven't.

Those who are not are going to
get it.

Do you buy it?

I think wendell is a
competitor, so I find it's hard

To believe that's his reason.

It seems like a strategic move,
the people he wants the fuel up,

But who knows.

Jeff: here's what's going
to happen, wendell, sebastian,

Angela, you go back the camp.

Steak dinner for you.

Donathan, laurel, domenick,
everybody grab your stuff, head

Back to camp.

See you tonight on tribal.

I'm lived, wendell wins the

Are my biggest enemies.

I don't feel good about my
ahynes.

The gloves are off now and I'm
coming after them.

Jeff: wendell, first
victory, buddy.

How does it feel?

You were on my heels.

I had to let you have one.

I don't know how the hell you
do these puzzles so freakin'

Fast.

I can't figure it out.

I finally won individual
immunity.

It feels great.

I don't want to get ahead of
myself, but I'm at least

Guaranteed if I use this and I
use my idol to be in the top

Four, and that feels so great.

On top of, that I get to feast.

We're about to eat good.

I think I literally just
drooled.

Thank you, wendell.

Thank you guys for being
amazing people.

I feel horrible that I might
blindside sea bass tonight, and

I still want to curry favor with
him before I send him to the

Jury so he has a good feeling
about me.

Easy vote dom tonight.

100% Dom tonight.

He's not the same when he
started.

Absolutely.

He started with a great story.

I don't think he could

I genuinely like the kid,
genuinely like the kid.

But not his game play.

Right now it seems like
donathan is going home, which

Sounds good for me, but if
domenick and wendell get to the

End, they probably have a lot
more on their resume than

Someone like me, but I got this
extra vote in my pocket, and

Tonight's the last night I can
use it.

It's one of those situations
where if you don't put a line in

The water, you're not going to
catch a fish.

So tonight I might be going
fishing, and I want somebody

Big.

I'm lived.

Why?

Why is he taking on reward
the person that's supposedly

Going out the door and giving
him food and leaving the one

Person he needs to beat in the
challenge.

I do not understand why he would
do that.

I cannot believe that wendell
took sebastian and angela on the

Reward.

I'm the one that's vulnerable.

I don't have an idol.

So I need to beat ang in the
final five immunity but he takes

Ang and fuels her with steak and
potatoes.

I'm so mad I don't know if I can
trust them.

I'm assuming you guys decided
together.

I didn't say anything.

Yes, you did.

I nodded and I agree that ang
needs a reward.

She hasn't been on anything in
forever.

Why are we making decisions
based on goodwill.

Laurel's not happy about
wendell's decision, which to me

Made complete sense.

But unfortunately laurel's being
superemotional, and I'm

Concerned.

Let's just keep our wheels on
the cart.

Sea bass goes home.

We got to do it tonight.

This could ruin everything for
us, because this late in the

Game, if she wants to shake
things up, she certainly can.

Domenick and wendell haven't
talked to me today, so I do feel

Like they're going to aim for
me.

I don't think so.

What options are there?

That's what I'm saying.

Wendell's safe and dom's got an
idol.

D.'S got one were were to?

He says he has two.

He's golden if he has two
idols.

I think he has one.

I think he has one two.

I wonder if he could put
votes on dom and cross our

Fingers.

That would be wonderful.

Want to do it?

I got nothing to lose because
they're probably going to ax me

Next.

Sebastian says, I'm game with
getting domenick out.

It's like, that sounds great to
me.

I'm the obvious target after
this last tribal I had.

But if we can convince domenick
not to play his idol, maybe we

Can blind side him.

You're really good with that
tonight?

Yeah, and I'm about to tell
you why.

I have an extra vote.

So we don't even have to tell
laurel.

Wow.

This would be an epic move.

It would be so perfect.

I like the opportunity of
being part of a plan, especially

If it is not against me.

There's been a lot of times at
tribal I've been left in the

Dark.

But today I'm in the loop for
once.

And it feels amazing.

I feel like I have a little bit
of power right now.

How did it go today?

Ang, what's going on?

Well, I can tell you
something, I probably shouldn't,

Because it's going to ruin my
game, but one of them have an

Advantage.

How do you know that in
because they told me.

You're going to get sketched
out.

So sebastian has an extra vote,
and they're gunning for you.

Holy crap.

Apparently sebastian has this
extra vote, and he is talking to

Donathan about pulling fast one
on me.

Thank god angela is a loose
cannon.

She just has diarrhea of the
mouth.

She just does not know how the
keep a secret.

Well, if that's the case, you
got to put your vote on

Sebastian tonight.

That's what I thought.

No one is taken me out.

I have two idols.

He thinks you have one.

So he thinks you're holding your
one for tomorrow.

This could be trouble.

Sebastian thinks that I only
have one real idol, which is

True, so now I may have to play
it tonight, which I don't want

To do.

You're with me and wendell?

I promise.

I think I have angela on my
side, but with donathan and

Sebastian's extra vote, all he
needs is one other person to

Come with him, and laurel is
pretty angry.

If she flips, I'm in trouble.

You can't say anything, but I
may with staying.

Sebastian has an extra vote.

If domenick doesn't play his
idol, I won't be going home.

You okay with that?

Yeah.

I've chosen to work with dom and
wendell this whole time, and

It's worked out well so far, but
the only chance that I have of

Winning this game is by making a
big move, and tonight I have a

Chance to decide my fate by
taking out one of the biggest

Players in the game.

Yo.

A lot just went down.

Sea bass has an advantage, an
extra vote.

He's going to try to take me out
because he thinks I only have

One idol.

Just so you know going into it.

I have a real idol and I have
david's fake idol from

Millennials versus genx, if I
can save the real one for next

Time, that guarantees me a walk
into final four, but it's a huge

Gamble not playing it.

I'm rolling the dice either way.

I hope I don't crap out, because
if I make the wrong decision,

It's game over.

It's game over.

Jeff: we'll now bring in
the members of our jury.

Chris, libby, desiree, jenna,
michael, chelsea, and kellyn

Voted out at the last tribal
council.

All right.

So day 36, final six.

Laurel, can you feel that
pressure building around camp?

Yeah, I think we all feel
that pressure.

You can see that the finish line
is near, and you're wanting to

Make big moves, but you also
want to make the right moves.

I think those are decisions that
you wrestle with every day.

Do you go big, and how do you
also go smart.

Jeff: donathan, is it like
caged tigers trying to get out

And do something?

Yeah, definitely the pressure
has been building, but today I

Never had really any
conversation, so the pressure is

Released from me.

Today is probably my time
officially to go.

Jeff: donathan, I have
heard that story from you

Before.

Why is today different?

Because of the tribal last
night and the repercussions that

I'm dealing with today from it.

Jeff: sebastian, does that
ring true?

Is donathan in trouble, or is
this part of his game play?

You know, I think he does
ring trouble today.

I would say there is a good
chance of donathan going home

Tonight.

Oh, jeff, I don't buy it for
one second.

He's been speaking every tribal
council, all of a sudden he's

Got nothing to say?

Who's buying that?

I'm not buying that.

I believe there's something
going on that he's not telling

Us, so I'll let him start.

And if he has nothing to say,
I'll take over the story.

Donathan?

Take over.

Jeff: got nothing?

I want to make sure, you're
going home tonight, there's in

Evil plan the take me out of
this game.

You're not working with anyone
here right now?

Nope.

Jeff: not even with my
friend sebastian over here, him

And his extra vote that he's
holding on to?

Nothing like that going on
tonight, right?

Nope.

Jeff: nothing?

I'm just saying, you like to
blow it up at tribal, let's blow

It up at tribal jowrks going to
work together with sebastian

With his extra vote and maybe
another person or two to come

Get me.

Jeff: sebastian, do you
know what he's referring to?

Yeah, I have an extra vote.

I'm not going to lie.

I don't know how the cat got out
of the bag, but I do have an

Extra vote.

Jeff: sea bass, you want
the play ball with donathan to

The end of this game.

I know I'm not going anywhere
tonight, so good luck.

I know their pockets were
loaded, that's why I'm certain

I'm going home.

My pockets are loaded and I'm
just prepared to break out my

Pockets.

Enough is enough already.

I got gear.

I got gear.

I got merchandise, all right.

Here we go.

Okay.

Here's my two idols.

My andrea idol I found on day
two, and this is my jay idol,

David from millennials very vs.

Genx.

Jay played this and was voted
out because it was fake.

It's come to life tonight.

I'm ready to play ball, if you
think things are going to go the

Other way, I can promise you,
it's not going to work out as

You hope.

Jeff: wow, donathan, one
little comment.

Any regret that you sat down and
said that?

I do feel like I'm going
home.

I'm an honest person.

That's exactly how I feel.

But I tried to make things
happen today, and that's what

You do in "survivor."

Donathan, we had a solid
thing since day ten.

I have been nothing but honest
and open with him.

I haven't lied to him once, and
for some reason he feels the

Need to turn on me for no reason
when we were going to sail

Through this game together.

I did have a thing with them,
but I want to make my own game

Out here.

I don't want to go by wendell
and dom the whole time.

If they're intim dated by that,
then by hell, let them be.

It's not intimidation.

It's just us trying to figure
out what your game plan is, man.

Why don't you just say, hey,
let's get to the final four...

That's what you're telling me
to do.

I'm here to play my game.

Okay, so if I pull this
out...

Which I know you have.

When does this save me?

Tomorrow?

Yes, because that's the last
time you can play it.

But what if I have a plus one
to the party that I could have

Used for you but instead maybe
I'll use it for somebody else.

You can do that.

These could have been used
for you, bro.

You never let me in on those,
bro.

Why do I need to let you in
on what's my possession, bro.

Because it's an alliance,
bro.

I'll throw this one on two,
if I can.

Got a lot of jewelry here
tonight.

We're trying to work with you,
donathan.

I don't want your work no
more, wendell.

That's fine.

Jeff: dom, you're back in
your bag.

Yeah.

Jeff: what's going on?

This is david's authentic
fake idol that he played with

Six people left in the game, and
being that there are six people

Left in the game, I'm ready to
give it to you now.

I'm going to keep this if you
don't mind.

Okay.

Thank you buddy.

It's in the real.

Jeff: sebastian, domenick
made a big move.

What does that do to the game?

It's very interesting move to
make it before we vote,

Especially given all the talk
about an extra vote.

I'm not sure what to make of
the early idol, but I don't

Think my game plan has changed.

It's part of his game plan, and,
you know, he's ready to say I'm

Safe, and that's a great feeling
in this game, especially at six.

Jeff: wendell, where are we
right now?

It's a tricky night here,
because dom clearly just played

An idol.

Sea bass may or may not be using
an additional vote, and donathan

Might have something up his
sleeve.

So I don't know where I'm voting
yet.

Jeff: laurel, is it hard
given everything that's being

Said right now to have any
certainty that what has been

Said is the truth.

It's impossible to know if
what's been said is the truth.

But I do believe that something
was in the works.

Jeff: do you believe that
it's still in the works?

I do believe it's still in
the works.

Jeff: all right.

It is time to vote.

Angela, you're up.

Angela, you're up.

I'll go tally the votes.

If anybody has a hidden immunity
idol and you want the play it,

Now would be the time to do so.

Wait.

Real quick, jeff.

So you already have my idol
here.

Anyone will notice, this note
looks a little short.

It was a few additional words
that go with it.

This taintedded idol has not
matured into a real idol.

Instead your opportunity to gain
power lies in your ability to

Use this fake idol to fool
another player.

This idol is a million dollar
gamble I'm taking right now.

If it goes bust, I can't say I
didn't try.

Jeff: domenick is telling
the truth.

This is not a hidden immunity
idol.

Any votes cast for dom will
count.

I'll read the votes.

First vote dom.

One vote domenick.

Donathan.

Sebastian.

We're tied, one vote domenick,
one vote donathan, one vote

Sebastian.

Sebastian.

That's two votes sebastian, one
vote donathan, one volt

Domenick.

15Th person voted out and
the eighth member of our jury,

Sebastian.

Oh, man.

Jeff: that's three, that's
enough.

You need bring me your torch.

You're the best guy ever.

Sebastian, the tribe has spoken.

You guys have no idea how
much fun I had with all you.

It was truly a pleasure.

Jeff: well, it is one of
the toughest parts of this game,

Trying to read when someone is
telling the truth and when

They're bluffing, and if you
guess wrong, you could be gone.

Grab your torch, head back to
camp, good night.

I am so freaking stupid.

Dom is such a good actor.

I had such good numbers on my
hands, and he made me keep my

Extra vote in my pocket.

That extra vote is cursed.

Whoever gets that next, I hope
you can play it right.

I think that was a million
dollar mistake.

Good job, buddy.

Jeff: was it a $1 million
mistake?

This is the parchment.

It got mckayla.

It got kellyn earlier in the
season.

And it just got sebastian.

Yes, it will be coming back.

For those of you keeping track,
so far six of the seven ghost

Island relics have cursed again,
so say what you want about bad

Mojo.

You know, you couldn't do a
season like this without a

History of bad decisions, so we
thought it's only fitting to

Have some of those early players
who made those notorious bad

Decisions here with us tonight.

Here are two of our favorite,
eric and james.

[Applause]
they have been great sports for

Years letting us call them the
dumbest moves and all that

Stuff.

We'll talk about what it was
like for them to relive this all

Over again, and I have an
apology for both of them.

More ghost island finale coming
up.

Jeff: come on in, guys.

And then there were five.

Shall we get to today's immunity
challenge?

Yes, sir.

Jeff: first things first,
wendell, I have the take back

The necklace.

It's all your, jeff.

Jeff: thank you.

You're very welcome.

Jeff: once again immunity
is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, you're
going to swim to a platform,

Climb up, slide down.

You'll then make you way through
a series of obstacle, collecting

Bags of puzzle pieces along the
way.

Once you reach the finish,
you'll use the pieces inside to

Solve a four-piece pyramid
puzzle.

First to finish wins immunity,
guaranteed a spot in the final

Four.

Losers tribal council where
somebody will become the ninth

Member of our jury.

We are getting down to it.

Draw for spots.

We'll get started.

All right.

Here we go.

For immunity and a spot in the
final four, survivors ready?

Go!

37 Days.

Everybody looking surprisingly
strong in the swim right now.

You got to get on to the
platform, climb up, and then

Slide down.

Wendell first.

Here comes laurel right behind.

There's domenick.

Here comes donathan.

Angela struggling to get to the
platform.

She's the last there.

Got to climb up it, angela.

Let's go.

You got to dig!

Wendell in the early lead.

You're going under this first
obstacle.

Wendell untying the first of two
bags.

Here comes laurel right behind.

There's domenick.

Donathan losing his shorts.

Angela still struggling to stay
in this but not giving up.

Wendell's over first.

Wendell working toward that
second bag now.

Laurel has her first bag.

She's heading toward that second
bag.

Donathan has his first bag.

Domenick has his first bag.

Everybody working on their
second bag except angela.

Wendell has his second bag.

He's first to the finish
platform.

He can start untying those bags.

Head starts matter because
there's a learning curve.

Laurel is right behind him.

There's angela with her first
bag.

She's heading to her second bag.

Donathan has his second bag.

Domenick has his second bag.

Angela still dead last.

It is a four-piece pyramid
puzzle, four measly pieces of

Wood might be the only thing
standing in between you and $1

Million payday.

First to get it together
guaranteed a spot in the final

Four.

Lose you go the tribal council
where anything can happen.

Angela has her second bag.

She makes her way to the
platform.

Angela's back in this now.

Domenick, wendell, donathan,
laurel, and angela, 37 days into

"Survivor" want to win right
here.

You will know when you're right.

There will be no mistaking this
puzzle when it's finished.

It will be a pyramid.

Anything short of that is wrong.

Everybody here has won
individual immunity at least

Witness except donathan.

This will be a perfect time to
join that group.

Jeff.

Jeff: out of nowhere,
wendell quietly builds the

Pyramid that guarantees shame
spot in the final four.

Wendell wins individual
immunity, safe tonight at tribal

Council.

Wendell, come on over.

Nice job, brother.

Jeff: back-to-back wins,
safe again tonight at tribal

Council.

Cannot be voted out of this
game.

Guaranteed a one in four shot.

At for the rest of you, 7 days.

Final five is impressive.

It is still short of the
ultimate goal.

For one of you that will be the
case.

Tonight somebody going home,
become the ninth member of our

Jury.

It won't be you.

Grab your stuff, head back to
camp.

See you tonight at tribal.

Congrats.

This is a big opportunity for
me.

I have big opportunity for me.

I have individual immunity and
an immunity idol.

This is me thinking how can I
posture myself in front of the

Jury.

Domenick may be loud and
boisterous, but maybe somebody

Needs to outsmart you tonight.

This is my move now.

Good job, wendell.

You k*lled it.

Thanks.

Good job, man.

I don't know why, in my mind I
was convinced the top would be

Flat.

Wendell's caught himself up to
me.

He's got two victories under his
belt, the same way I do.

I can't get rid of him.

We both have idols.

Every time I think I got the
edge on him and I pull ahead a

Little bit in this race for the
best game, sure enough, he comes

Right back and bites me right
back in the butt.

No excuse.

Good job.

Congratulations.

Had it been a flat top, you
would have won.

Going into tribal tonight,
being I have real idol to play,

I'm safe.

What I'm now trying to determine
is what makes sense for me going

Into final four.

Angela's not really a threat to
anyone.

So far the only thing she's been
really good at is eating weird

Food.

And I'm pretty sure that's not
going to be the challenge going

Into final four, so donathan is
the obvious vote, but this is

Not an easy decision.

I want to ask you a question,
hypothetically speaking,

Tomorrow's individual immunity
challenge, what are your

Thoughts if you win whom are you
taking with you?

You.

You're taking me?

Oh, yeah.

Wendell and domenick can easily
decide to do whatever they want

To tonight because they have
safety in their pockets.

And I'm thinking, damn, this
sucks.

The only game plan that I have
from here on out is if domenick

Presses me enough that I will
take him to the final three.

So I hope I can solidify that
relationship and say, I'm ready

To have like a head-to-head with
somebody that's played a great

Game out here.

I'm honest.

I want to pick you.

I want to compete against the
best.

I'm not going to b.s. You.

I'm weighing options.

And I don't want to put my fate
in a fire-making challenge.

Donathan said, I'm definitely
taking you, like that.

It's called a snap call in the
poker world where we say,

Someone made a snap call means
they gave their response without

Thinking twice.

They put their chips in without
even thinking about it.

A snap call most of the time
represents a bluff.

I don't know if I'm buying it,
but the advantage to taking

Donathan is that he is super
weak in challenges.

And having a weak player there
could help my game, because on

The other hand, laurel's won
challenges.

And so that makes laurel my
number-one threat.

I feel very nervous and
exposed, not because I don't

Trust you guys, just because
it's final five, and I feel like

This is a big one.

We have your back.

I know, but I feel like I'm
the biggest not-safe target on

The board, so I'm nervous.

I know I'm the biggest
challenge threat left for dom

And wendell in this game.

If they're playing a logical
game, it doesn't make sense to

Keep me.

I had chances to flip on them
but I didn't, and now I'm at the

Morrissey of dom and wendell
tonight.

There was one concern about
you, I'll tell you honestly.

Let's say you win the final four
challenge, you'd take don-don,

Right?

I feel like I need donathan
on the jury so I can get one

Vote for sure.

Of course don-don would vote
for you, but if you were to take

One of us out, wouldn't that be
a resume boost for you?

I see your point.

I just think my best shot is
that you guys split votes.

People are torn between you, and
then I pick up enough of the

Remaid their aren't split
between you.

Laurel basically said, look,
my only shot at winning this

Game is the votes being split
between you and wendell and

Maybe there's some bait left
over for me, some scraps for me

To pick up.

And I mean, it just sounds too
ridiculous.

Everyone wants to feel that they
have a legitimate shot out here,

So the flag goes up, the red
light goes on, and you tell

You're, this is not really
someone who I want to trust

Deciding my fate.

If she ends up winning the next
challenge.

I think laurel's full of it.

You think she is?

Well, we need to again
consider laurel beating us.

I think she is the only threat
to us tomorrow.

I want the bring a
non-factor.

I want it to be about me and
you.

I'm willing to let her go if
that's what you want to do.

It's hard me me the say, that
but I'm not opposed to making

Any moves tonight.

Tonight I have power in that
I have individual immunity and I

Have an idol some it's a matter
of how I use eric's idol to

Protect one of the three people
remaining.

Laurel, ang, or donathan.

This is my opportunity to make a
big move, and shift the jury in

My favor.

But this is a very risky
decision.

Eric made a terrible decision
with his idol when he gave it

Away.

I will be here tomorrow, but
whatever I do tonight could

Screw up my game going forward.

I would love to be able to
reverse the curse, and I'm going

To try my best.

Hopefully I'm making the right
choice.

Hopefully I'm making the right
choice.

Jeff: we now bring in the
members of our jury.

Chris, libby, desiree, jenna,
michael, chelsea, kellyn, and

Sebastian voted out at the last
tribal council.

All right.

Laurel, last tribal council a
lot went on.

There was grandstanding, there
was bluffing.

This is a big tribal tonight,
because if you survive tonight,

At the very least you got a shot
at making fire to get to the

End.

So what was the vibe back at
camp?

There was a lot of pressure
back at camp.

I mean, wendell won again, so
he's safe tonight.

We know that dom has his idol.

So all three of us are on the
line tonight.

Jeff: but angela, all three
of you can't really be on the

Line tonight, right?

Yeah, I definitely think so.

I mean, I saw domenick and
wendell talking together,

Running ideas back and forth.

You know, tonight is a huge
decision for those two.

Jeff: donathan, agree with
that, that domenick and wendell

Are debating which one of you to
send to the jury and which two

To bring with them.

We're on the bottom and we
have to lay out what we think is

Going to make their game better
for them.

I've not won individual
immunity.

These girls both have immunity
wins.

So you may have to make a chance
with me because I may be the

First out in the challenge
tomorrow, and these guys could

Really face that challenge
tomorrow.

Jeff: domenick, it's
interesting that there could be

A turning point where never
having won becomes an asset,

Because you don't want to bring
somebody tomorrow that could

Beat you.

Absolutely, jeff.

What he's saying makes sense to
me.

You can have played the greatest
game up to day 37 and then have

The biggest blunder in your game
by picking the wrong person to

Go and move forward with you.

So my mind is not made up.

Jeff: wendell, does all of
the talk of cursed idols or

Cursed advantage, does it add
even more awareness to the fact,

Wow, that's right, every
decision matters out here?

I've definitely thought about
that, jeff.

I have probably the most cursed
individual immunity idol in the

History of survivor, eric's
necklace.

I keep thinking if the decision
I make is going to curse me

Going forward in this game.

I have the unique ability to
save one out of the three folks

In front of me or I can hold it
for myself.

It's a difficult position to be
in.

Jeff: domenick it's
interesting that wendell within

Saying I have something of
power, I don't need it, maybe

I'll give it to somebody.

Did you have any discussion?

It's up to him.

He holds the power.

I can only protect myself
tonight.

Jeff: wendell, I feel like
we're right back in a big game

Of bluff.

There's no chance everybody is
being completely transparent.

We have a lot of
conversations, and we've been

Working together a lot.

It's no secret.

But he doesn't know what I'm
doing with this idol.

I'm not throwing him any more
bones.

Now it's an individual game.

Jeff: laurel.

This is what you want, something
to crack.

Yeah, I mean, them
disagreeing is a good thing.

I mean, I have been working with
these guys a long time.

They've saved me quite a few
votes, and I've saved them quite

A few votes.

For me I'm hoping that loyalty
outweighs the strength vote.

We're at the nitty gaza city,
hony.

We're going down to where we
can't rely on loyalty anymore.

It's about getting yourself to
that three.

Like I mentioned earlier, I have
not had great immunity wins.

I struggled in challenges.

It will be an advantage for
those two back there if they

Pick me tonight for whatever
lies for tomorrow.

Jeff: all right.

It is time to vote.

Angela, you're up.

Angela, you're up.

I'll go tally the votes.

If anybody has a hidden immunity
idol and you want the play it,

Tonight is the last time you can
do so.

I'll let you go first.

You got a big finale you're
going to do?

A little one.

All right, jeffrey.

This is the season 26 idol,
andrea had this in her pocket.

Cochran blindsided her.

She went home with.

This I am looking to reverse the
curse.

Jeff: you're playing it for
yourself?

Playing it for myself, yes.

Jeff: okay.

This is a hidden immunity idol.

Any votes cast for domenick will
not count.

May I say a little something,
jeff?

Jeff: sure.

A few weeks ago someone came
in this game and weed up, and

She reminded me of someone from
back home.

She reminded me of 'y sister
iran.

I told her I would be loyal to
her like I would be loyal to my

Sister, so laurel, I want the
play this for you.

This might not be smart
strategic move, but I'm standing

By you, and I appreciate all
that you have done for me and

Our alliance.

Wendell, thank you.

All right.

Well, can I play this for
myself.

Jeff: thank you, laurel.

Thank you.

Jeff: this is a hidden
immunity idol.

Any votes cast for laurel will
not count.

I'll read the votes.

Laurel.

Does not count.

Donathan.

One vote donathan.

Donathan.

That's two votes donathan.

16Th person voted out and
the ninth member of our jury,

Donathan.

That's three.

That's enough.

You need to bring me your torch.

Last malolo.

Give it hell, girl.

Jeff, I have had the wonderful
most experience of my life.

Jeff: donathan, the tribe
has spoken.

Time for you to go.

Thank you, jeff.

Jeff: angela, domenick,
wendell, laurel, you have made

It to the final four.

Tomorrow you'll compete in your
final immunity challenge.

Win, you are guaranteed a spot
at the final tribal council.

Grab your torches.

Head back to camp.

Good night.

I had the most amazing time
playing this game.

You know, I've always
underestimated myself.

So to come out here and do as
great as I did, it's worth more

Than $1 million to me, because
the lessons that I learned out

Here, I can apply to real life
now and, you know, it's

Something that I'll always
remember for eternity.

Jeff: donathan, he went
down fighting with those truth

Bombs.

Let's bring him out.

Come on, donathan.

[Cheering and applause]
he was a true fish out of water.

Hello, jeff.

Jeff: donathan, we watched
you play this game, and when you

Started, you really were a fish
out of water.

And day by day we watched you
find your voice and gain more

Confidence.

I heard from so many people, did
you change as a result, because

You talked about back home you
weren't always supported and you

Felt picked on at times?

Yeah, as -- sorry.

I'm so nervous.

At the age of eight I started
jim newscastics, and as 13 I

Came out as a guy guy in a
particular area that that

Doesn't happen.

Along the way I lost my voice.

And I got bullied a lot.

But coming on "survivor," I
wanted to show people I had a

Voice and I was going the break
some walls down while I was out

There, and I think that I did
that.

[Cheering and applause]
jeff: well, you definitely

Did, and I want to share
something.

I was going to ask you another
question about how many people

Responded, but then honestly,
just about 20 seconds ago

Backstage you have another very
big fan.

We sort of have this "survivor"
ben factor fan in sia the pop

Star.

A few seasons ago she was so
proved by ty's story that she

Wanted to be involved in his
life.

And this season she was so
touched by the way you have

Dedicated your life to your
family that she wants to give

You $10,000 to help you take
care of your family.

Thank you so much.

Jeff: thank you.

You are awesome.

More "survivor."

We're down to four.

A lot more show left.

We'll be right back.

Jeff: come on in, guys.

Here we are.

Started with 20.

We are down to four.

Day 38, your final immunity
challenge.

Shall we get to it?

Yeah.

Yes, sir.

Jeff: first things first,
wendell, for the second time if

A row, got to take back the
necklace.

Thank you.

No problem.

Jeff: for the last time
immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge you're
going to balance on a wobbly

Beam while using a long pole to
stack ba*ls on stands.

At any point your stack drops.

You got to start over.

First person to stack all six
ba*ls wins immunity, is

Guaranteed a spot at that final
tribal council where you will

Get your opportunity to state
your case, why you deserve the

Title of sole survivor and the
million dollars.

In addition, you get to choose
one person to sit next to you at

That final and force the
remaining two to showdown in a

Fire-making challenge.

Let's draw for spots and get it
on.

Final challenge.

All right.

Here we go.

Final immunity challenge.

Survivors ready?

Go!

This is what it comes down to
right here.

38 Days of competition is going
to require a base that's very

Firm and hands that are really
surgeon-like.

Wendell off the a quick start.

Places his first ball.

Angela right in it.

Domenick places his first.

38 Days can make the simplest
thing difficult.

Wendell back with his second
stand.

Everybody here has won
individual immunity.

Everybody knows what it feels
like.

But nobody knows what it would
feel like tonight.

Wendell with his second ball.

Here comes domenick.

Domenick working on that second
ball.

Domenick fighting, losing it,
trying to adjust it and he does.

Domenick has his second ball.

Nice recovery.

You've got to make sure that it
is looking straight, because the

Higher it gets, the tougher it
gets.

It is wendell with his fourth
stand, then angela.

Here comes domenick with his
third stand.

Laurel with her second ball.

Laurel with that fourth ball.

There are only six ba*ls total.

He's got it.

Domenick trying to get back in
it.

Domenick places his third stand.

Domenick loses everything.

He's got to start over now.

A huge setback for domenick.

Here comes the fifth ball for
wendell.

It would be his third individual
immunity win in a row.

Wendell still looking pretty
straight.

Will it stay?

Yes.

Laurel still struggling to get
back in this.

Laurel drops.

She's got to start over.

Angela places her fourth ball.

Here comes domenick with his
second.

Wendell placing his sixth stand.

Wendell has one ball left.

That stack is leaning.

Will it stay?

Will it hold?

38 Days, and it comes down to
this, a backyard challenge

Potentially for $1 million.

And wendell loses everything.

Just as he's coming up with his
final ball.

It is now angela in the lead.

She resets now taking her time.

She's got a big lead.

She can slow down for a minute.

Angela's wobbly at the bottom.

And angela drops.

It is domenick now in the lead.

This is why you never give up
time and time again on

"Survivor."

You are reminded to keep
fighting, and this is why.

Anything can and often does
happen.

It is now domenick in the lead
with three ba*ls coming back

With his fourth.

Domenick places his fourth ball.

It is a race to catch domenick.

Domenick is just trying to build
it tall enough and straight

Enough to put this baby in bed.

Wendell quickly back in it
placing his third stand.

Domenick with his fifth stand.

Angela trying to get back in it.

Wendell places his third ball.

Laurel with her second.

Domenick places his fifth ball,
really taking his time, which

Opens the door for wendell to
catch him.

Wendell back with his fourth
ball now.

This is the showdown of the
final immunity challenge.

Here comes domenick with his
sixth and final stand.

And he's got it.

Laurel loses everything again.

Wendell with his fifth stand.

He's working hard to make up
time.

Domenick now coming back with
his sixth and final ball.

This would do it right here
guaranteeing him a spot at that

Final tribal.

Wendell continues to dig, coming
back with his fifth ball.

This is what you want on day 38
in the final immunity challenge

On "survivor."

Domenick places the sixth ball.

He's got to get back to the
start.

And he does!

Domenick wins individual
immunity and a guaranteed spot

At the final tribal council.

[Applause]
good job, dom.

Oh, my god.

Jeff: domenick, come on
over.

Final individual immunity.

You are going to the final
tribal.

I can see the emotion already.

I don't know, man, it's
just... 38 Days of just non-stop

Emotion, and it's still not
over.

We got work to do still, jeff.

Jeff: all right.

Dom said it.

It's not over.

You still have a big decision to
make.

Tonight you are going to decide
which one of these three sits

Next to you at that final tribal
and which two have to battle it

Out in a fire-making showdown
and earn it.

Should make for a very
interesting afternoon.

It's not going to happen back at
camp.

The four of you are going the
leave here for one final visit

To ghost island, where you will
get your chance to plead your

Case to dom.

In addition, you also have one
final task.

Read this in private.

Grab your stuff, head out the
ghost island.

See you tonight at tribal
council.

All right.

Jeff: congrats.

Thank you.

Jeff: all I needed was just
to win immunity.

Domenick is the man with a lot
of power.

I know he wants to get me out of
here.

So I have one task.

I have make fire before whoever
is next to me.

If I mess up, I got to sit in
the final three.

This has been a dream of mine

Tonight is do or die for me.

I can't believe it.

I won the challenge.

After 38 days of ups and downs,
lefts and rights, wheeling and

Dealing, I've secured my spot
into the final three.

I'm happy I'm going to see ghost
island not as a victim but as,

You know, a winner, but this
game is far from over.

Because I have a huge decision
to make on who to bring with me

To the final three, and if I
screw that up, it's going to

Cost me $1 million.

Welcome to ghost island.

Here it is.

Look at this.

Wow.

One bad decision can haunt
you forever.

It feels terrible being back at
ghost island, especially under

These circumstances.

I lost the challenge.

Now dom is immune tonight.

He gets to pick who goes with
him to the final three, and then

The remaining two have to battle
it out making fire, nd I know

He's not choosing me to go
forward, because he doesn't want

To be next to me, because I
think he's a little scared of

The game I played, you know?

However, I feel confident in my
fire-making ability, so I think

I should be all right.

Mr. Wendell.

I'm proud of you for doing
that, and tonight I'm going to

Make some fire.

How do you feel about the
other two?

I feel like I could beat
either one of them, but you're

The power man, so the ball is in
your court.

Obviously wendell is my
biggest concern out here.

We've been working together.

But he knows that I can't bring
him.

I can't hand him an invite into
the final three.

He's played a great game.

And I think he has the respected
of a lot of the people on the

Jury, and that's a threat to me.

So I got to figure out which of
those girls have the best chance

Of beating him.

I'm going to take some more
time to consider the situation,

But just practice.

Do what the competitor laurel
would do.

So you're saying it's me?

You don't know?

It's not a bluff.

I cannot beat him in fire.

I'd love to be bad a*s and make
fire, but I'm not the one to

Take him out.

I am so frustrated because this
is the hurdle I have to get to

Get to final three.

I know I am not good at making
fire.

I've seen wendell do it.

I've seen dom do it.

I have not practices as much
as I should have.

I know that's the cardinal rule
of "survivor."

Know how the make fire.

So I'm in a tough spot now.

I don't want him thinking I have
a shot at.

This I mean, angela is a lot
better with fire than I am.

If you take him out, you win
$1 million.

It's not me that's going to take
him out, it's ang.

I don't know if laurel is a
viable option at this point.

She's kind of given up on
herself out here saying, don't

Make me fight for fire.

Let me just come with you.

I don't respect that.

You're on "survivor."

What the heck was she thinking
not practicing making fire.

We all knew this was coming.

So I may have to go with plan
"b."

I haven't made up my mind yet.

I feel like you're the strongest
that could take wendell out in

The fire.

I don't want to put my faith in
laurel to do it.

I want to put my faith in you
because I believe if anyone is

Going to kick his a*s it's you.

He's good.

Domenick wants me to go against
wendell.

I know how the do it.

I know the basics.

Still, the idea definitely makes
me nervous, and to be honest, I

Think dom going to the end with
laurel would be a huge mistake.

Here's my problem with that.

She's never pissed anybody off
and she's sweet.

She's nice.

Everybody likes her.

I don't have those bonds.

Because nobody talked to me.

I know.

I know.

Jeff: that's the
difference.

I know.

This is so tough for me.

Dom, she knows the game.

She's a yale graduate.

She's a talker.

Laurel is going to discredit
me.

Big time.

She is going to fuel the fire.

She will go down fighting.

What lang is saying does make
sense.

But wendell is still the biggest
threat out here, and I think

Angela might be able to help me
get rid of him.

She's a tough cookie, and I'm
just like, you have made it 38

Days.

I think you got what it takes.

I believe in you.

So you need to believe in
yourself.

Wendell is the battle I have
to beat.

And if I can help you take him
out, we can be sitting there at

The end.

All right.

The military preaches prior
planning, so they always say

Prior planning prevents poor
performance.

You're going to start with
this.

Right.

I'm very scared.

But I'm not going to quit,
because anything can happen.

There you go.

That's it.

I'm still here.

I'm still going to work hard,
and I'm going to make sure

They've done everything I can to
get me, you know into, that top

Three.

I'll read my message real

Quick, see what that's about.

After winning the challenge,
jeff gave me a little note.

I had no idea what to think.

So I made my way up this trail
to the top of ghost island to

Read it.

It was a little intimidating
actually, and I started to get

That whole ghost island feeling.

There are real curses out here
from seasons past, monumental

Mistakes made in the game that
cost people in this game $1

Million, and it plays with your
mind.

Oh, my god.

All right.

Let's see what this says here.

Congratulations.

You have earned your spot at the
final tribal council, but you

Have one decision left to make.

Who to take with you.

It's the same decision colbie,
wu, and culpepper faced.

They made the wrong decision and
it will haunt them forever.

Tomorrow night the jury will
place their votes in one of

These cursed urns.

Choose one and bring it with you
to tribal council.

This is a $1 million opportunity
for you to reverse the curse.

This is just another thing to
think about.

You're staring at these relics
from the past that are just

Looking you in the face and
saying, are you going to make

The same mistake as I did?

These are the authentic
survivor voting urns from three

Iconic seasons.

Second season, survivor
australia, colbie chose tina.

The winner of "survivor" the
australian outback, tina.

Tina won.

28Th season, wu chose tony.

Jeff: the winner of
"survivor," tony.

Tony won.

34Th season, "survivor: game
changers," culpepper chose

Sarah.

Jeff: the winner of
"survivor: game changers" sarah.

Sarah won.

Just a little reminder before I
go into making this huge

Decision, it's k*lling me.

I don't know what to do.

As I was looking at these
urns, I had this thought.

I'm not sure that angela can
beat wendell in fire making, so

What if I give her my necklace
and step into that ring with

Wendell in the fire making
challenge, because if I put

Myself up against wendell and
take him out of this game, it

Would show everyone on that jury
that I deserve to win the $1

Million.

I have to make a serious
decision right now.

God.

The question is, do I take this
crazy gamble and make a

Monumental move that could put
me on the map as one of the

Greatest players to ever play
this game, or do I take the safe

Route and potentially be one of
those people who are haunted by

This poor decision for the rest
of their lives.

I'm going to go with the cagayan
urn.

I'm hoping people will see my
game is played as well as tony's

Was.

I would be crazy to do this, but
I ultimately do believe in my

Ability to make fire better than
any of the three out here, and I

Am a huge gambler.

That sounds crazy, but I might
be sick enough to do that.

All right.

All right.

Do what you got to do, brother.

In the event something goes
haywire, it's been great.

It's all love, great game.

It's all good, man.

All right.

I love you, dude.

Thank you for everything, for
real.

You can play this game great
for 38 days.

You can make every move perfect.

But if I make the wrong decision
tonight, it was all for nothing.

And I think the only thing I can
do is trust what I've trusted

For 38 days out here, and that's
my gut.

This is a million dollar
decision.

If I screw up that, I would
never be able to live with

Myself.

Jeff: we'll now bring in
the members of our jury.

Chris, libby, desiree, jenna,
michael, chelsea, kellyn,

Sebastian, and donathan voted
out at the last tribal council.

All right.

So we have our final immunity
challenge.

Domenick, you win, and in doing
so guarantee yourself a spot at

The final tribal council
tomorrow night.

You also gained the power to
bring one person with you, but

Instead of going back to camp,
you guys all get in a boat for

One final visit to ghost island,
where I'm guessing laurel,

Angela, and wendell plead their
case.

Yeah.

It was quite an afternoon.

The theme of this season is one
bad move could haunt you

Forever, and I do not want to be
part of that legend.

I want to know that up to this
point I have made decision after

Decision the right way.

It's terrifying.

It's just terrifying.

Jeff: so laurel, what was
your plea?

What case did you make to
domenick?

My case is domenick has made
it clear that he's trying to

Take wendell out.

If that's his goal, I'm not the
person to do it.

Ang is the queen of fire at our
camp.

She tends to the fir every
single day and every night.

If he's trying the take a shot
at wendell, I'm not the person

To do it.

Jeff: angela, what's your
case?

Laurel is a talker.

She has just as many friends and
allies that I do, and she's

Convincing.

She's likable.

I don't think she's made anybody
mad.

Jeff: so your case is it's
risky to bring laurel, she could

Beat you.

Absolutely, yes.

I definitely think she can if
she's up there, she'll beat dom.

Jeff: wendell, you guys
have been pretty open that you

Have been working together for a
long time in this game.

My case was a big hug.

I told my bro I love him and I
told him I'm going to try my

Best to make fire tonight.

Jeff: you didn't even think
there was chance he would bring

You.

Not a chance.

And I wouldn't bring him.

So I'm going to fight my butt
off tonight.

Jeff: domenick, was that
understood between the two of

You that if you got to four this
is where we break up.

We've been working together
for so long, but we've also

Talked about who is going to cut
whose throat first, because we

Both realize we're playing a
pretty decent game.

There's no b.s.ing each other.

But tonight presents an
opportunity for me to take one

Last shot at getting rid of this
guy, but as long as I sit at the

Purple table, I feel like I have
a good shot.

Jeff: I can tell you, that
based on the seat you're sitting

At, you would be sitting at
orange.

You got any paint?

Jeff: that is interesting
that on day 38 the orange curse

Still resonates on some level.

That color has been scaring
me for the last 38 days, jeff.

Jeff: so domenick, your
last task was to choose one urn

And bring it with you.

Right.

Jeff: because tomorrow
night the votes will be placed

In that cursed urn, and we will
resolve ghost island.

Which urn did you choose and
why?

Well, I brought the urn from
cagayan, season 28, where wu

Could have won like that by
taking cass with him, and

Instead he insisted he wanted to
play this game with the best out

There, and that was tony, and
that reminds me of my buddy

Right here.

If it ends up biting me in the
butt that I went with him, the

Curse will continue, but I have
faith in myself, I have faith in

My game.

Jeff: all right.

I'll take that from you.

Thank you.

So let's get to it.

Domenick, who you going to take
to sit next to you at final

Tribal?

Jeff, it resonated throughout
the day, an I'm making this

Decision because I have faith
that my girl ang is going to

Give my friend wendell here a
run for his money tonight, so

I'm going the take laurel with
me to final three and I want to

Just thank her no matter what
happens, both of these people

Here, they've been great, and
let's see what they got.

Jeff: so laurel, you will
be at the final tribal council

Tomorrow night.

It's a huge weight off of me.

I'm kind of speechless right
now.

I'm so thankful.

And I'm so excited.

Thank you, dom.

You got it.

Appreciate it.

Jeff: uh-huh.

So we have two of our final
three.

Angela, wendell, you're going to
show down.

You can take your spots at your
fire-making stations.

Lang is at purple.

Wendell is at orange.

If you want...

I don't make the call.

I don't care where I sit.

Jeff: let's explore this.

You don't care where you sit.

I date of birth care where I
sit.

Jeff: and you deeply care
where you sit?

Absolutely.

Jeff: well, if you want to
switch.

It's okay with me.

Thanks, ang.

Jeff: it's amazing, isn't
it?

Wendell is petrified of orange,
wants nothing to do with it.

You don't care.

Yet both of you have the same
thing at stake, $1 million.

If it makes him feel better,
I'm okay, because it doesn't

Bother me.

Jeff: we're looking for our
third bern to join the final

Three, wendell versus angela,
fire-making competition.

You both have the same amount of
supplies.

First one to build a fire high
enough and hot enough to burn

Through the rope and raise the
flag will join laurel and

Domenick at the final tribal
council.

The loser will become the tenth
and final member of our jury.

You guys both ready?

Go.

38 Days.

Fire is a way of life out here.

Two very similar approaches out
of the gate.

This is it.

Potentially a $1 million fire
right here.

Wendell within quickly starts
shaving magnesium.

Angela now getting into it.

This could go very fast or we
could be here a while.

There's a bit of a breeze.

You want a shot to plead your
case, you have got to make fire

Faster than the other person.

Wendell already trying to get a
spark going.

Angela still scraping, trying to
build a pile.

Quickly wendell has a flame.

Whoa.

But it goes out.

Jeff: that wind is going to
be an obstacle.

Angela sparking now, trying to
get something going.

Angela's got a little fire.

Go, ang.

It goes out.

Jeff: wendell sparking
again.

Angela sparking.

Angela has a little fire.

Can she keep it going.

Wendell's got fire.

Angela's goes outs.

Wendell's doesn't.

That wind is blowing.

Very hard the contain that fire.

That tinder will burn fast.

He's got to get something to
take.

One big gust could take it out.

Angela still fighting.

That flame has a long way to go.

It's got to get high enough, hot
enough, and be in line with the

Rope.

Angela still working to get
something going.

Wendell now piling on.

That flame is starting to burn
taller now.

Angela's got to get something
going.

Very quickly wendell has a
decent fire.

Looking over at dom as if to
say, I'll be seeing you

Momentarily.

Angela trying to make sure that
does not happen.

She's got to get something
going.

Wendell's fire burning taller
now, brighter, starting to burn

The rope.

The flame is burning hot.

Just got to burn through that
rope.

The wind keeps moving it around.

Angela not giving up, though,
continues to fight.

That wind continues to push that
flame around.

It's on the rope then it's off
the rope.

Angela going crazy now trying to
get it going.

And there it is.

Wendell within makes fire.

Wendell will join laurel and
domenick at the final three

Tomorrow night at final tribal
council.

Angela becomes the tenth and
final member of our jury.

In a million-dollar fire-making
showdown.

Angela, 38 day, a little short
of the goal.

It is a long time to survive on
"survivor."

You become the tenth and final
member of our jury.

You need bring me your torch.

All right.

Ang.

See ya.

Thanks, babe.

Jeff: angela, the tribe has
spoken.

Time for you to go.

Good luck.

Love you.

Jeff: laurel, domenick,
wendell, congratulations.

You accomplished what everybody
wants to achieve and very few

Actually do.

You've made it to the final
tribal council.

Tomorrow night the power in this
game shifts to the jury.

Ten people that you played
alongside and voted out will

Decide who they think is most
deserving of the title of sole

Survivor and the $1 million
prize that goes along with it.

You have one more night out
here.

I hope you can get some sleep.

You will most definitely need
it.

Grab your torches.

Head back to camp.

Good night.

I made it this far.

I'm proud of myself, but my goal
was to win.

While I believed in myself, it's
very hard for me to accept that

I failed.

Obviously everybody comes out
the win, but there is only one

Winner.

This is it.

This is it, baby.

I'm not going to cry.

I hate you.

I hate you.

Can we arm wrestle or something?

Day 39, oh, my goodness.

As a super fan, this has been a
dream of mine for a decade

Pretty much.

It's great.

It's the best feeling in the
world.

We're all deserving of it.

Not one that's more or less.

It's just the way it is.

It's go time.

But there's still work to be
done, and I think I can plead my

Case and win against anybody.

I was like a silent assassin,
quietly in control of this game.

I found ways to connects with
all these people all the while

They were sent to the jury based
on my decisions, and I made it

To the end.

Season 36, we love you.

39 Days.

Wow.

I feel like I can win this game
if I bring my a game.

Yes, bagels.

Fruit, veggies.

This everything is we need.

It's been a huge growth
experience for me.

I look back on day two or three.

I was terrified.

And now I just feel so
confident.

Great friends.

Congrats.

Cheers.

I feel like I'm the underdog.

When you're the underdog, you
have nothing to lose.

Listen to that sizzle.

My challenge is going to be
making sure the jury knows the

Moves that I have been making.

Can I get some?

Cheers, guys.

Cheers, guys, we earned it.

I played from the bottom of
this entire game.

I was on a tribe that got
decimated.

In order to save myself, I found
people that were willing to work

Across tribal lines and work
with them.

Though my game wasn't as flashy,
most of the jury votes came down

To my decision.

I saved dom and wendell multiple
times.

I played a hard game.

I'm going to go out there and
fight for it.

Such a huge swing between
first and second place.

It could be a difference of one
vote.

Once I stepped foot on this
beach, what I realized was

There's no turning back now.

Me playing this game was no more
about me doing it for me.

I owe it to my family back home
to win this game and the $1

Million, because they were with
me every step of the way out

Here.

You really have to watch your
tone in front of the jury.

Really?

Yeah.

It's like huge.

I'll take note.

Tonight's not going to be easy.

I know I'm far from done,
because I know laurel's the last

Malolo standing.

She's got a lot of love on that
jury, and wendell scares the

Hell out of me.

This wendell guy is going to
give me trouble tonight.

I know it.

But this is season 36, and
juries respected great game

Play.

It is game time, kids.

I believe in my heart that I had
the best game play out here.

I think I had the ability to
explain that and justify it to

This jury, but I hope my edge
isn't too sharp, because I don't

Want to come off in a way that's
like, I'm better than you.

I kicked your as.

This is the toughest part.

This is what 39 days of work,
effort, and energy has come down

To is this one night.

I think we're going to see an
epic tribal council, and I know

That it's going to be one for
the ages.

That it's going to be one for
the ages.

Jeff: we'll now bring in
the members of our jury.

Chris, libby, desiree, jenna,
michael, chelsea, kellyn,

Sebastian, donathan, and angela.

All right.

So laurel, domenick, wendell,
you've outlasted 17 other people

In the game, survived 39 days.

You've dealt with switches and
twists.

There was ghost island and
curses to reverse.

But here we are.

For the jury, it's a process of
discovery for you to get all the

Facts so you can write the name
of the person you believe played

The best game and place it in
the urn that domenick brought

Back from ghost island to finish
out this season.

I'm going to give you a minute
to gather your thoughts.

We'll get started.

Jeff: okay, first portion
of "survivor" is the outwit part

Of the game, the social part of
the game, alliances, any ethical

Or moral dilemmas, the lines you
might have crossed.

Kellyn, get us started with the
social part of the game.

Hi, everyone.

Congratulations on sitting there
and not here.

In some ways we all envy you,
and in other ways I'm glad that

I'm not the three of you tonight
because of what might be coming

Your way.

So I'd like the hear what your
plan was coming in and how you

Thought you were going to play
the game socially with alliances

And relationship building.

Laurel, do you mind starting?

Yeah, coming into the game I
came in as an athlete and I

Planned to play a really
physical, aggressive game.

Unfortunately, I was on malolo,
and I was put in a position

Where I was playing from the
bottom from day one.

So I managed to use my social
game the find a way to hang in

There vote after vote after
vote.

I aligned with two of the most
powerful players in the game, so

I didn't plan coming into this
game for my game to be largely

Social, but it absolutely was.

For the record, I'll give you
the credit, not only were you in

Malolo and down on numbers, you
were the only one of the three

On all four times.

You were put in a harder social
position having to make new

Relationships every couple days,
but you were glueded to two of

Them, letting them pave the way.

I want the clarify, I don't
think I rode with them.

If you think their moves were
great, I was part of all their

Moves.

We always felt like we had a
little power in this game

Because we could switch it up
when we wanted to.

I think they were flashier
about it and smoke more about it

At tribal, but they wouldn't be
here without me.

Des came to me with a plan.

I exposed it to save myself, to
get myself one step further away

From the chopping block.

Just putting one more person
in front of you is not really

Anything to brag about.

You knew that these two were a
huge problem that needed to be

Separated.

You had the chance to make a
huge move, and to obtain power

And to really switch the game
up.

But I wasn't scared to make
big moves.

I was receptive to plenty of
options.

With these guys I was in the top
of the majority alliance.

I'm not dumb.

I know that sitting next to
these guys is the toughest

Competition out here.

I do think that dom played
the best social game.

He had pretty strong
relationships with all of us.

He was always having
conversations.

Wendell, you and I also had
great conversation, but I feel

As though you were always off
making your next creation or

Whatever it was, while, you
know, maybe dom was out

Connecting with somebody.

I totally understand where
you're coming from, but domenick

Is a big talker.

He's a new york guy.

He's the domenick show.

I think conversations that I had
with people were super genuine,

Like we had great conversations
about your father.

I talked to libby about her love
for food, so I tried the make

Her a whole pantry.

Des and I argued night after
night about kanye versus chance

The rapper versus other rappers.

Yes, I took myself out of the
game for some mental space, but

I also invested a lot of time
and sleepless nights in the

Game.

I'm not going to vote for you
off of a music conversation.

I need you to tell me just a
little bit more about these

Sleepless nights where you were
digging deep and doing all this

Stuff, because I don't really
understand what it is that

You're talking about.

Okay.

Well, ang came to me on the
second day and said, what are

You thinking?

We're thinking dom.

And I'm like, whoa, this is day
number the work and we're

Already throwing names out
there.

It's "survivor."

For the first couple weeks,
all I did was damage control to

Protect this guy, my brother,
from mr. Noble.

From day one chris and come were
after each other.

I thought I could find a way to
bring these two guys together.

You would have been right here
on our three.

That's now how it would have
worked.

Here's the deal, guys, if you
want that $1 million, someone

Needs to tell me who is the real
mastermind in this alliance?

From my perspective, I was
the mastermind.

I was the --
go ahead.

May I finish?

Let me hear it.

From my perspective I was the
mastermind.

I had this alliance of five.

It lasted three days.

This alliance of five.

But go ahead.

Let's hear him first.

Sure.

The alliance of five, nothing
happened to them because we kept

Winning.

When the swap happened, that's
when I pull in laurel.

You?

I have a conversation with
laurel.

Laurel, who pulled you in?

Domenick came us to four
malolo and said, I'm willing to

Slip and let's get angela out.

We got nervous and decided to go
with morgan and that's why

Morgan went down.

Thank you, donathan.

That's true.

I appreciate that, thank you.

Chris, there is no mastermind.

Let's stop with the nonsense.

Do I look like the type of
person the take orders from

Anybody?

Wendell may have said, dom, your
name is floating around.

This was on dame two.

But chris noble was on my team,
and I went victory after victory

After victory, and the one
challenge we lost, luckily for

Me, he gets sent to ghost
island.

So I approached donathan.

I approached laurel.

I approached libby.

I approached them.

I said, I'm willing to work with
you.

They fooled the hell out of me.

They voted morgan out.

It was a brilliant move.

But that's what it came down.

To there was no mastermind here.

I made every decision for myself
from the start, day one of this

Game until this moment that I'm
sitting here.

So if anyone feels like they
worked with the dom and wendell

Show throughout this game, can
you please raise your hand?

In one word, who brought you in
to work with the dom and wendell

Show, dom or wendell?

Laurel?

I believe that I approached
them.

I don't think it was one of them
that brought me in.

Okay.

That works.

Go ahead.

Domenick.

It was come of course for me
too.

Wendell.

So I stuck with wendell.

Domenick for me.

But at the end of the day,
you guys proved forward and you

Have been together.

So I need one of you to like
bury the other one, because I

Thought for sure you had to
knock each other off.

It would be ridiculous for both
of you to sit there.

You think I want to compete
against him?

I even talked to him.

I'm like, bro, when are we
taking each other out.

You know we can't go together,
and it didn't fall into place.

There was no opportunity.

He had an idol, and I had an
idol.

So we just accepted the fact
that, look, let's just work

Together to the end.

But I will say, if I had a shot
at him at final five, I would

Have rally the troops to get his
a*s out of here.

Part of my strategy was to
sit become and let dom be the

Dom show.

In tribal councils you'll always
hear dom.

When we get back, you'll always
see dom.

Some of his neat ricks kind of
hurt people.

And, yes, I made some difficult
moves, but I really just tried

To be a lover out here.

I really did.

It sounds to me like you sat
become and let him do all the

Work and piss people off, which
is hard, you know to, handle in

"Survivor."

Thank you for, that because
you might think that domenick

Did everything, but I knew a lot
of heat was on me.

I saw my name a few times.

I was just trying to make moves
on the low.

Jeff: all right.

Let's move on to the outplay
portion of the game.

This is camp life, challenges,
finding idols, switches, twists.

Laurel, pitch your case that you
outplayed the other two when it

Comes to the outplay portion of
the game.

I won a challenge, and the
changes that I didn't win I was

Always in the running for.

I think the difference with me
is I never felt like I had to

Win a challenge to save my game.

I think if you were relying on a
challenge to save your game

You're, doing something wrong.

Once we got to the end game, I
didn't feel like if I didn't win

Immunity I was going home
because I had positioned myself

In a position where I was safe.

Jeff: wendell?

Okay.

As briefly as I can I'll try the
talk about camp life.

It was part of my strategy to
make it a more comfortable

Situation so we can be happier
and we're all performing a lot

Better.

So I built seating, a tool shed
for the fellas.

I built three beds.

Wendell, I think we're all is
thankful that we had you around

Camp to do everything you did.

It was amazing truly.

But I want to know about both of
your idol dynamics, who knew

What, was what was fake, what
you made.

I think we're all curious what
happened.

As far as idols are
concerned, I think idol

Management is also a key
component of this game.

I found an idol, and I didn't
have to use it.

You guys know me and laurel were
working together a lot.

So I was able to protect laurel
with my idol.

That's the kind of move I made.

I tried everything I could to
prove my loyalty to laurel.

The loyalty pitch doesn't
work for me.

I may for other people.

I don't see it like that.

That's fine.

I appropriate that you judge me
on other merits and me saying I

Was a loyal player.

Can i?

Go ahead.

From an idol perspective.

I'll talk to you about something
that I am very proud of that I

Think was maybe one of the best
moves this game's seen, and that

Was the night of the sebastian
vote.

It is important that you
understand the neat ricks of it

That went down, because I knew
that it looked distasteful to a

Lot of you when I pulled out two
idols --

Distasteful is one word.

Yeah.

I have a lot to say to you,
buddy.

And we can get into it, and
hopefully you'll see exactly why

I did what I had to do.

So what was most critical to me
was that I preserved my real

Idol for final five.

So I called sebastian and
donathan out on this plan

Against me, which was going to
be ex*cuted that night.

So it was my job to change the
fate of that.

Is that what was going to
happen?

That's what was going to
happen, but the way you did it,

You and wendell put your
bling bling on.

It was ridiculous.

Everyone on this jury is like,
what was going on.

This is ridiculous.

Agreed.

Will you let him finish.

I'm sorry.

We were brothers.

I was going to vote you out, but
that was brutal.

I'm a lover, dude.

I played from my heart.

That was my entire game.

I didn't even have strategy, you
know.

You tried the use my truth
b*mb, but my truth b*mb was more

Of an attack.

It was an act.

Have I ever been that aggressive
in this game to anyone?

Yes.

Really?

I don't know.

I feel like most of your game
was a bit of an act.

I'm hurt by that, because I
mean, I had an objective.

It was the only way I could have
sold it.

I needed to pretend that this
fake idol had power and that

Convinced you.

It worked.

It worked.

That's all it was.

I am not an evil, malicious
person.

I don't have a malicious bone in
my body.

I have two daughters at home.

There's no way that's me.

And I'm sorry.

I realize it was aggressive and
abrasive, and I get it, but that

To me was a huge move.

It's a million dollar gamble.

No one got what I was trying to
do.

I thought anyone up there was
fan of the game would appreciate

It.

For the record, I thought
that from a game standpoint

Strategy-wise, it was brilliant,
because it may have swayed

Sebastian's mind knowing you
were guaranteed final five.

And I had a real idol to play at
five and it's a good thing I

Had, because this guy won the
immunity challenge, and that

Would have been his chance the
take me out.

For me personally, dom, you
and I have been at it since day

One, but there is a mutual
respect I have because you did

Play you a*s off.

You played the game hard.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Jeff: all right.

Now we're going the move to the
last portion, which is the

Outlast.

It comes back to you guys.

Did you put the people on the
jury who respect your game more

Than the other two?

This is your last chance to
convince them.

Laurel, you're up?

Yeah, I understand that you
guys view my mistake as taking

These guys to the end.

And in the making a move against
them when I had multiple chances

To do so.

I know that you're craving the
big move, and it would have been

Exciting to take them out of the
game.

That's a big move that would
have benefited probably every

One of you but would not have
benefited me.

If they go out at nine or eight
or seven, I'm the next to go and

I have no options to get to the
end.

I got to final five.

And wendell played his idol on
me.

Not because I wasn't a threat,
but out of loyalty and out of

The relationship that we have
developed.

There is no one else that would
have done that for me if I had

Taken them out.

That secured me a spot in the
final four.

So I understand the craving for
a big move, but for me I had to

Go with the smart move that gave
me a chance to get to the end.

Jeff: domenick?

So I realized a lot of things
I did was unpopular, that I hurt

People out here, I want you all
to know when I speak, I'm

Speaking with confidence and
passion.

I don't want it to come off as
harshness or brashness or

Arrogance or anything like that
because I played a hell of a

Game, and I know it, and I own
it, and I own every move I've

Done.

I wore that necklace three
times.

I found two relics out here.

One was real, one was fake.

I think the fake one I put to
good use, as unpopular as it may

Have been.

Just vote with your heart
tonight and remember that it's

About who played the best game,
not necessarily who made the

Nicest furniture or who did this
or did that.

It's about owning your moves and
playing your heart out out here.

I'm proud of what I did and I'm
proud of what I brought to the

Game.

Jeff: wendell?

Okay.

First and foremost, thank you
guys for letting me come out

Here and live this dream.

When I came out here, I wanted
to bring the true unique pieces

Of me out here.

I wanted to build some things.

I wanted to be a guy who is kind
of athletic, kind of social,

Kind of smart.

I wanted to mesh all of these
pieces of the true me, and I

Also wanted to put my heart out
there and let people know who I

Am.

I tried to play a clean game,
although there are some things

That I'm still apoll jetteddic
for, but as a whole, I hope you

Understand that there are
players in this game that make

Some cool moves that people
would like to see, and there are

Players that really thought
things through and made very

Strategic moves.

Once again I just thank you for
this opportunity.

Jeff: all right.

Jury, nice job gathering
information.

Laurel, domenick, wendell,
handled yourselves very well.

There is one thing left to do.

Jury, I'm going to give you a
moment to take in everything

You've heard, and then we will
vote.

Okay.

We are there.

Final tribal.

This is it.

We did this last year, and we
had a lot of fun with a girl

Named ava.

What's your name?

I'm samantha.

.

Jeff: okay, samantha last
time ava predicted who she

Thought would win.

I'll give you the parch.

By the way, she got it right.

Here's your pen.

Keep it a secret.

Don't say anything, anybody.

Because the next time I come
back, I'm going to announce the

Winner of "survivor: ghost
island," and we'll see if you

Got it right or not, no
pressure.

Ava got it right.

Can samantha get it right?

Hold it up.

Keep it a secret.

We'll come back later.

The winner of "survivor: ghost
island" coming up right after

This.

Jeff: all right.

Jury, after 39 days, it comes
down to this: who do you feel is

Most deserving of the title of
sole survivor and the $1 million

Prize that goes along with it?

For the last time, it is time to
vote.

Jenna, you're up.

I'm not the type of person to
get my feelings hurt.

I respect the hell out of you.

You deserve to win this game.

Wendell, you deserve this.

Wendell, you played a
phenomenal game, but dom, I have

A respect for you.

You played better than everyone
else.

You deserve this.

Dom, I think you were the
brawn behind the operation, but

I think wendell was the
strategist and the brains all

Along.

Jeff: I'll go get the
votes.

Oh, my god.

It's over.

Jeff: all right.

I'm going to read the votes.

What?

What?

I thought he was joking.

Oh, my god.

Jeff: first vote domenick.
