42x06 - You Can't Hide on Survivor/The Devil You Do or the Devil You Don't

[bunniefuu]

"You can agree
to secretly work together

and each earn
an advantage in the process."

HAI:
I have to consider whether
or not I need to take them out,

because this thing
becomes more powerful.

OMAR:
"If both players choose to risk
their vote, then both players

lose their vote
at the next Tribal Council."

Go for the gusto,
and risk the vote.

Did I just do it?
Did I just find an idol?

It's the classic case
of the bunny rabbit

having dinner at the mailbox.

This potato has skin.

We have skin.

Are we just all potatoes?

There's such grace in the game
of soccer that it makes me cry.

MARYANNE:
Now all three idols have power.

I know that my head's
on the chopping block tonight.

I feel like my head is
also on the chopping block.

DANIEL:
Chanelle needs to go.
She did not have my back.

So why should I trust her
going forward?

CHANELLE:
Daniel has one arm.

He hasn't competed
in any challenges.

HAI:
Chanelle or Daniel.

The merge is coming up
any day now,

so tonight's Tribal Council
is monumental.

Daniel, the tribe has spoken.

The tribe has spoken.

♪ ♪

HAI:
What a vote.

LYDIA: I feel like that
was a pretty good blindside.

Chanelle, you really fought
for your life.

I am so impressed.

CHANELLE:
Thank you.

Oh, my goodness.

The saga of Chanelle

versus Daniel.

Guess who came out on top.

I did.

(laughs)

Just like I knew it.

Please.

-Chanelle came for his neck.
-(laughs)

Tribal was incredible,
but it was also very scary.

You know,
I threw a vote Mike's way--

just in case Daniel
played a Shot in the Dark.

I'm sorry that I had
to write your name down.

It was a game-time decision
where I...

I don't know what
the accomplishment was.

That's what I don't know.
Why my name?

Well, I was gonna tell you,
but you-you keep interrupting.

I just don't understand
the reason

why you would
write my name down.

So I thought that, uh,

you and Dan were teaming up...

-You think I believed
Dan's snow job?
-CHANELLE: Wait, wait. No. Wait.

MIKE:
Chanelle put my name down
for no reason other than

to save her own hide.

Expected? No. Surprise? No.

I gave you my word today.
I said, "I guarantee

you'll be here tonight,"
and you're here.

-I told you that.
-CHANELLE: I thought,
I thought you were playing

-some Jedi mind tricks.
-MIKE: No.

Let's-let's be unified...
We just, we...

MIKE:
I'm not mad.
It's gameplay. It's cool.

-Yeah. We got...
-MIKE: Listen, we're together
now. It's four of us.

-Either we stick together
or we're divided.
-CHANELLE: No, I know.

-HAI: We're strong.
-CHANELLE: No hard feelings.

-It's all fair
in love and Survivor.
-Yeah.

-Come on. G-Give me a bro hug.
-HAI: Yeah.

-Bro hug!
-I love you.
-I love you.

-Vati four.
-I love you.

MIKE:
I act like no big deal,
it's gameplay.

It's fine. No hard feelings.

Which is not true.

I will never trust Chanelle
ever again.

Please don't write
my name down again.

I-I won't. (laughs)

MIKE:
Hai and Lydia

I will take a b*llet for.

Unfortunately, Chanelle,
I will step to the side,

because that's what
she did to me tonight.

Oh, my...

♪ ♪

In the produce aisle today,
we have...

limes.

Do you need help?

-ROCKSROY: No.
-Nice.

ROCKSROY: Ever since I came back
from my journey,

every time I turn around,
there's Tori bothering me,

trying to find out
what this journey entailed.

TORI:
Did you have fun at all?

-A Survivor experience?
-I did not have fun.

It is not fun.

TORI:
Rocksroy went to the summit,

and he must have found some
type of a clue or something.

Seriously...

No, I believe, I believe you.
I believe you when you say that.

I'm saying, do you know
exactly what it was?

That's what I'm confused about.

ROCKSROY:
Yeah, I know exactly
what it was.

Oh, but you're
just not telling me?

I'm not telling anybody.
I didn't tell,

I didn't tell Romeo
and I'm not telling Drea.

TORI:
Mm-hmm.

He won't give me
any information, and, like,

it doesn't make any sense
to me, and it's...

"Infuriating" is the best word
I could use to describe.

Just so you know, I wouldn't
have thought you were disloyal,

had you taken the advantage.

It's not a disloyalty.

-I don't know...
-But do you see
how that's a little sketchy?

It's clear he doesn't want
to work with me,

so I'm done with him.

Can you just respect
the fact that what I did

-was in the tribe's benefit?
-Sure.

But you don't believe me.

I'm predictable,

and it's good to have someone

that's predictable
a part of your alliance.

Tori is not predictable.

She's not someone that I want
to take far in this game.

If you don't trust me
saying that to you...

I trust
what you're saying is real.

I just want to know
the other information.

ROCKSROY:
So what do you think?
You think I have an advantage?

TORI:
But you're
leaving something out.

DREA:
It's never just, like,
calm with Tori.

Tori can't just, like, chill.

ROCKSROY:
Maybe I gave up something
so that all the four of us

-could move forward.
-Uh-huh.

ROCKSROY:
Do you understand
what I'm saying?

TORI:
I want to know what that is.

That sounds great.

ROCKSROY: But you keep asking,
and I'm not gonna tell.

DREA:
She continues to do things
that start chaos in camp.

That's a big con for me.
You know?

I would just like
to get her out,

but she always somehow slips by.

All right,
this is gonna be a fun day.

So, back in 41,

we did a historic merge twist
where one group

sent one player away,
not knowing

they would have the power to go
back in time and change history.

That player was Erika,
and she did seize the power,

and she changed history
and ended up winning the game.

But what's fun is, we sh**t
our seasons back-to-back,

so the S-42 players
have not seen season 41,

which gives us the opportunity
to do the same thing,

only tweak it a bit
to see if we can change

their decision-making process.

So here are the three variables
we're gonna change.

First of all,
the food is from Applebee's.

That's big, that's emotional.

That's home.
That's hard to turn down.

Plus, we're gonna
tell them in advance

that the player
they choose to send away

will have the power
to change the game.

That's huge power.

And then finally--
here they come--

the winning five will determine:

do they want to send somebody
away and give them that power,

or do one of the five want to
give up everything they just won

and keep that power?

It's designed to test

if anybody at this point
in the game will choose power

over the instant gratification
of food

and perceived safety
in the game.

What would you do?
Here we go.

Come on in.

♪ ♪

Get your first look
at the new Vati tribe.

Daniel voted out
at the last Tribal Council.

Ooh.

PROBST:
All right,
shall we get to it?

Yeah.

You have entered
the next stage of the game...

...where tribes are no more

-and the game
has become individual.
-(gasping)

Everybody drop your Buffs.

(cheering)

LYDIA:
Oh, my God!

So, is this called the merge?

Not exactly.

(groaning)

PROBST:
In fact, you are not merged.

You will not be
officially merged

until after
the next Tribal Council.

(groaning)

Like everything else
in this game,

you are going to earn
your way into the merge.

-LINDSAY: Wow.
-PROBST: So right now,
you are without a Buff,

and you are without a tribe.

-What?
-PROBST: Let me explain
how it's gonna work.

We're gonna draw
for colored rocks

and divide into two teams.

On my go, you're gonna dig up
a massive boulder

and push it through
a series of obstacles,

collecting keys along the way.

When you get to the end, you'll
climb to the top of the tower

and use those keys to unlock
a 75-piece Survivor puzzle.

(exclaiming)

First team to finish
earns their Buff.

-MARYANNE: Wow. Oh, it's purple!
-The merge Buff.

You will also earn immunity

at the first Tribal Council,

which means
you don't have to compete

in that first
individual immunity challenge.

-You're safe.
-MARYANNE: Oh, my gosh...

PROBST:
You'll still vote,
but you can't be voted out.

You will also earn the biggest
food reward of the season.

-TORI: Come on, baby. Come on.
-PROBST: Want to know
what you're playing for?

-Yeah.
-Yes.

It's good. It's big.
It's Applebee's.

TORI:
Oh, my God!

I love Applebee's.

-Oh, my gosh!
-Oh, my God!

We'll start
with some appetizers.

-No. (whimpering)
-Crunchy Onion Rings...

with honey barbecue sauce.

Oh...

Double Crunch Bone-In Wings.

Crispy on the outside,
tender on the inside.

Wings.

And do you want burgers?

You'll have
your choice of three burgers.

I'm a burger kind of guy.

The Applebee's brownie.

-Oh, I love brownies.

-Oh, my gosh.

is the Shark Bowl.

-Yeah!

MIKE:
Hell yeah!

Losers, no Buff,

no immunity, no food.

-Holy crap.
-CHANELLE: Wow.

PROBST:
And you will have to compete

in that first
individual immunity challenge

for safety
at the first Tribal Council.

There is one more twist.

-DREA: Obviously.
-Oh, God.

Two of you will
draw gray-colored rocks.

-MARYANNE: No.
-PROBST: You will not compete.

Your fate will be decided
by the winning five.

-PROBST: Shall we draw
for our teams?

All right.

Everybody, let's reveal.

Oh, no.

You are not competing.

-Let's see our teams of five.

For orange,
it's gonna be Lydia,

Jonathan, Maryanne,
Hai and Tori.

Running for blue,
Drea, Mike, Romeo, Omar

Lindsay and Rocksroy--

All right, here we go.

Biggest stakes of the season.

Survivors ready.

Go!

LYDIA:
Go.

PROBST:
First, you got to dig up
a massive boulder.

And I mean massive.

LYDIA:
Good.

TORI:
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

PROBST:
12 days into Survivor 42,

it's gonna take
everything you have

at this point in the game.

This boulder is heavy,
and it is deep in the sand.

PROBST: Jonathan gonna see
if they can get it out.

This would be a very fast move.

Jonathan putting
his shoulder into it.

Got a little bit of nudge,
but not enough.

-JONATHAN: Let's all try
pushing together, guys.
-Okay.

-JONATHAN:
Let's all try pushing together.
-Okay.

-One, two...
-PROBST: Orange gonna

give it a go again.

They've been moving fast.

And they've got momentum.

-Can they get it out?
-(grunting)

PROBST:
Yeah!

-Big early lead by orange!
-JONATHAN: Push fast. Push fast.

PROBST:
Now blue feels
momentum shifting.

Jonathan is leading his tribe.

Got to slow that ball down now.

TORI:
Orange, over here.

CHANELLE:
Go, go. Go.

Blue is now getting it
out of the sand.

-Everybody putting
their shoulder into it.

PROBST:
That's how you do it
on Survivor!

You're in this.

trying to untie that key.

Blue trying to get
over that obstacle.

PROBST:
Tori's down.

Slides on the butt.
That'll leave a mark.

MIKE:
One, two, three.

Here comes blue now.

Jonathan pushing

I-I am, too.

LYDIA:
Mm-hmm.

JONATHAN:
One, two...

Big push by orange!

Jonathan single-handedly
almost pushed that ball over.

Blue trying to stay in it.

Gonna be Romeo

Orange working
together very well.

Now you got to slow
that ball back down

But orange with a nice lead.

working on the key for blue.

Get ready, get ready.
This is it.

MIKE:
Come on down.

Blue's back on the move!

TORI:
Coming down.

Orange out of the way.

Now you put it in its holder.

Jonathan, he's the ladder.

-Lifts Tori.

Up here.

Mike gonna be first up on blue.

Scraping that body
against the ball.

-It's right here.
-Oh, nice.

PROBST: Maryanne and Lydia have
a big advantage right now,

but that is a big puzzle.

Good job, girls.

Drea out of gas.

Beating up her body.

Good job, girls.

Drea trying to get some wind.

-12 days into Survivor
makes this very, very tough.
-MIKE: Drea.

Drea literally gonna grab on

who's being held on to
by Omar and Chanelle,

who's being held on to by Romeo.

-Drea gets kicked in the face.
-ROMEO: You okay?

CHANELLE:
One more time, Drea.

OMAR:
Don't worry, Drea.
It's a huge puzzle.

MIKE:
All right, Romeo...

PROBST:
They're gonna change
their strategy.

-Romeo gonna have to
go back down now.
-MIKE: Where's Romeo?

Go down. Climb down on me.

Mike with a good idea,
which is to help Drea get up.

Maryanne,
while she's working on that,

why don't you flip the pieces
so you can see all of 'em?

No, that's all good.
We have time.

MIKE:
Use my body. Use my body.

PROBST:
Drea on Romeo's back.

CHANELLE:
Yes, Drea!

Climb, girl.
Everything in you, Drea.

-Yes!

Drea's up.
Romeo now trying to get up.

Romeo's up. The strategy worked.

Blue is good.
Now Mike's the last one.

-Now you got another
ladder you got to build.

Right here.
You know you can do this.

I know.

Mike climbs on Omar.
Mike is up.

There you go. There you go.

Now, can Omar get up there?
Here we go.

Omar has Mike.

Can he pull him up?

That's how you dig,

MIKE:
All right, we're good. Go.

It is Chanelle and Omar
working quickly now.

It took them a long time to
get up here, but they're here.

DREA: Let's go, Chanelle.
Let's go, Omar.

Lydia and Maryanne continue

Y'all are doing amazing,
but don't get comfortable.

Yeah.

Thank you for the reminder.
It really means a lot.

no idea what
is happening up here.

Their fate will be in the hands

Piece by piece,

orange getting closer and closer

to winning the biggest reward
of the season.

at the first Tribal Council,

and Applebee's on the line.

TORI:
Nice.

PROBST:
Shark Bowl, the brownie,
the burgers,

-the fixings, the fries.
-(overlapping chatter)

PROBST:
Chanelle, Omar struggling
to get back into this,

but it won't matter.

This one is over now.

It's just a matter
of these last few pieces.

Tori, Jonathan,

Hai, Lydia, Maryanne,
for the win.

-And they've got it.
-(cheering)

PROBST:
Biggest reward of the season.

And this challenge is over.

Wow.

-(excited chatter)
-Mwah.

PROBST:
The biggest challenge
of the season.

Everybody put in
a ton of effort,

but the victory went to

Maryanne, Jonathan,
Tori, Hai and Lydia.

So here's what you just earned:

your Buffs, immunity
at that first Tribal Council--

which means
you don't have to compete

in that first
individual immunity challenge--

plus Applebee's.

A very nice afternoon.

Here's a big decision you have
to make before you leave,

as a group.

Lindsay and Rocksroy,

you're gonna determine
their fate.

One of them is gonna join you.

-Oh, wow.
-And for them,
it is as though they won.

They get the Buff,
they get the immunity,

they get the food.

The other will be sent away

to another island and exiled
for two days and two nights,

where they will live alone
with no Buff, no immunity,

no food, no shelter,
no company, nothing.

And to complicate your decision
a little more,

the person you send away

will have the power
to change the game.

So the question
you have to decide,

do you want to send one
of these two away,

knowing they will be
in control of the power,

or do one of the five of you
want to give up everything

you just earned to be sure
you're in charge of the power?

You have two
big decisions to make.

Who do you bring
with you and who goes?

PROBST: Both Lindsay and
Rocksroy will have their game

altered dramatically
by the decision that is made.

Walk me through
the thought process

about who you want
to bring with you, Hai,

because it's a very big
strategic decision

to give this gift to a player.

HAI:
Jeff, it was simple.

One of them looks like
they really need to eat.

That was our reasoning
for the decision today.

I'm sorry, Rocksroy,
but we're bringing Lindsay.

I'm so sorry.

Yeah.

PROBST: Lindsay joins the five
that now becomes six.

Now, the next
equally big question.

You gonna send him away,

or are one of you
gonna take the spot?

We're sending him.

PROBST:
Okay. Rocksroy, you're gonna

be taken to another island

where you will
live alone for two days,

-two nights.
-TORI: You got it, Rocks.

For the winning six,
there are your Buffs.

Head out for a nice
afternoon of Applebee's.

MIKE:
Congrats, guys. Congrats.

Chanelle, Mike, Romeo,
Omar, Drea.

Normally,
I'd say I got nothing for you,

but after that effort, there
is a small consolation prize--

one serving of rice.

And you'll be heading
to the Vati beach.

That is gonna be
where everybody lives.

Grab your stuff, head out.

Get used to your new home,
and enjoy your rice.

Come on, guys.

♪ ♪

PROBST:
So, Rocksroy, what's the feeling

when they had a choice
between you and Lindsay,

but they still sent you away?

ROCKSROY:
Actually, I was
hoping it was Lindsay to go

when you said that the person
that's coming back

would have a little bit more
of an advantage in this game.

Yep, if there is a silver
lining, Rocksroy, it is that.

You will have power
to change the game.

And that's gonna be the question
as you sit out there.

What is the power,
and what will you do with it?

Everything
will be revealed in time.

For now, you got to head out.
Boat will pick you up,

take you to your new home.

See you soon, Jeff.

-PROBST: Good luck.
-All right, buddy.

They said they took Lindsay
because she needed food.

Uh, no, we all need food.

We're all hungry.

So I'm not sure
what the reasoning is.

Maybe Tori sent me out here
to weaken me even more.

But I'm not
disappointed about it

because in Survivor

this is what you want.

You want it to be hard,

because it shouldn't be so easy
just to get a million dollars.

So today
I'm eating like a king.

Those wings are to die for.

Back home,

Come on, man. Talk to me.

JONATHAN:
But I'm a bigger guy,

and I'm worried about that,

because that's
already a target on my back.

So I have got to lay low
as much as I can...

my social game is enough

to keep me around.

You're gonna love it.

How am I gonna finish that?

LYDIA:
Dude...

Oh, my God.

I feel like
I went from zero to hero.

Like, not only
did we win Applebee's,

I'm the only person from Ika.

And not only that,

Rocksroy was the one
who was outcasted.

Like, it just, it couldn't
have been more perfect.

I was like the one person
on my tribe Rocksroy

would not have wanted
in the position of, like,

making the decision
if he went or not.

-JONATHAN: Yeah.
-I don't know.

Uh, you two
don't really get along?

No, it's very rare that
I don't get along with someone.

Oh, also he voted for me last
Tribal Council, as well. Yeah.

-Oh.
-They also, yeah,

tried to get me out
last Tribal Council, as well.

I am letting
all the secrets out.

I'm airing all my tribe's
dirty laundry. I don't care,

because my old Ika tribe
didn't want to work with me.

So we just don't get along.

So I didn't really want him here
because I wanted to enjoy this.

-OTHERS: Yeah.
-I'm trying to make myself
known as, like,

"Hey, you want a number? Like,
me, right here. Work with me."

And Rocksroy, he only cares
about the shelter and the fire.

So honestly, he's probably
loving being by himself.

-(laughter)
-TORI: I've been waiting

for the individual part.

And it was so scary, because
I almost didn't get here.

But now that I'm here,

I'm gonna do what I want to do
with other people, not Ika.

-Cheers to us, y'all.

We'll always have Applebee's.

-CHANELLE: Do you guys think
we're gonna have a merge feast?

-DREA: No.
-MIKE: The rice we're gonna have
is gonna be our merge feast.

Man, losing that challenge
hurt on a visceral level.

Like, I'm absolutely starving,
but I didn't come here to eat,

I came here to play and to win.

And so not having immunity
is probably the hardest part,

because the chances of me
going out just got higher.

It really sucks.

Do you want me to pour
the rest of the rice in, or no?

We got a little bag of rice.

It could have been a bag

celebrating.

That looks amazing.

We have been starving.

I'm starting
to look like a skeleton.

So, sorry, America,
I look like crap.

I can't wait to know
what Rocksroy comes back with.

And he actually said to them,
"Are you sure you want to s...?"

DREA:
He kept on saying that.

You never know,
he might come back

and be able to say that
he can switch it to where

-they are not immune and we are.
-Ooh.

That's why he was like,

"You sure one of you guys
don't want to go?"

-That would be amazing.

DREA: Fortunately, Rocksroy's
a part of my alliance,

he can change the game,

it would be
in my benefit as well.

However, I can't rely on that.

put clothes out there?

all about grabbing power.

I just need to figure out
who's gonna strike first.

Exactly. Knowing that, like...

-We just got to just lay low
and let things happen.

These past 12 days,

I didn't have much power

-OMAR: Yeah.

I have an extra vote.

I have trusted my gut that I'm
aligned with the right people.

We need to stick to the eight.

So I wanted to tell them
about the extra vote,

because it could really build
connections with people.

We've caught Tori in so many
lies, and she does it so well.

We need to get her out.

OMAR:
But she's safe right now.

DREA:
We don't know what
Rocksroy brings home.

Oh. Unless immunity...
Unless Rocksroy changes it.

But everyone votes.
But everyone votes.

Either Chanelle or Tori,
'cause they're separated.

JONATHAN:
Yep.

This first vote is tricky,

because we've been subdivided
into two groups--

people who are safe
safe from the vote

and those that are
vulnerable to go home.

But fortunately, we have some
early low-hanging-fruit targets

for the first few Tribals.

-I'm telling you,
Chanelle is k*ller at Tribal.
-Yeah.

And she's coming right now.

-OMAR: Okay.
-HAI: Yeah.

OMAR:
We have to make Chanelle feel...

Yeah, 'cause the last time
she came, we split up, so...

-just talk.
-Yeah.
-HAI: Chanelle has proven

that she's not loyal to me,
since my very first Tribal.

And there's only one more person
on my hit list

that betrayed me--
and that's poor Chanelle.

We're talking about, like,
we all have good vibes.

And they all really like you.

DREA:
Yeah.

HAI:
Yeah.

DREA:
Yeah.

-JONATHAN: I'm gonna go check
that spot for spearfishing.
-HAI: Yeah, I'll come with you.

-I'm gonna go get the scuba
gear. You want to come with us?
-I actually want to enjoy

-the beach, too.
You want to enjoy it with me?
-OMAR: I'll enjoy the beach.

CHANELLE:
Yeah.

Yeah.

Let's go get 'em hot.
Get 'em hot. Get 'em hot.

Yippee ki-yay.

Oh, yeah, buddy.

Jeff!

-Hey!
-Rocksroy!

-Welcome to the pad, buddy.
-What's up?

Wow. You got a shelter.

Yeah, I built a shelter.

I had to rush everything,
but, you know.

This is impressive.

ROCKSROY:
Jeff's coming to visit me, okay?

So I was like, "Wow."

But at the same time,
I'm a little nervous,

'cause there's always some type
of twist and turn in this game.

I'm sorry, I may interrupt you
to take my rice off.

-(chuckles)
-I love it.

So, how are you feeling,
being out here?

I really wanted to experience
what it is to, like,

not only be on Survivor,
but a survivalist.

But I think having
this moment of zen, kind of,

I think it helps me.

So it's like a pause,

-and then the next stage
of the game.
-Exactly.

-So let's recap
where we are, all right?
-Mm-hmm.

Right now we have
the six that are safe.

They got the Buff.
They don't have to compete

-in the immunity challenge.
-Yeah.

You and the other five,

you will have to compete
in that immunity challenge.

One of you will win,

and one of the other five
will go home.

Doesn't have to be that way.

Huh?

Where's that hourglass?

(grunts) The one I've been
trying to figure out

-what the heck it's here for?
-Yeah.

I've been counting it out,
trying to see

if it's a real hour.

-This one.
-That one.

Yeah, set it between us.

So, the sand at the bottom

represents time that has passed.

-Correct.
-History.

Yes.

You can leave things
as they are.

-Right.
-Or you can go back in time...

...and change history,

by reversing the outcome
of the challenge.

They would lose their Buff,
they would lose their immunity.

You six would be safe,

and one of those six
would be voted out.

Whoa.

There are pros and cons
to doing it or not doing it.

I immediately think
of the con of doing it.

There's a huge target on me.

"Why did you do that to us?"

On the other hand,

I have Drea and Romeo
that's already in my alliance.

So those are people
you would be helping.

-And maybe they will
somewhat protect me for a while.
-Mm.

Because at least
I protected them.

It's a big decision.

If you decide to do nothing,

then just do nothing.

If you decide to change history,

at any time between
now and tomorrow morning,

when you return to the game,

find that mallet,
smash that glass.

That's your decision.

ROCKSROY:
This is the biggest moment

in the game so far.

And the decision lies with me.

Awesome.

Wow. Now it's time to play.

I am a honorable player,

but the five that
are currently vulnerable

lost, fair and square.

Hey, not everyone gets a trophy.

You lost--
better luck next time.

But if I leave it
and I don't smash it,

I'm gonna be vulnerable.

The six that are safe
right now--

would they look out for me
and not vote for me?

How much weight does
it carry for me going forward?

And then there's
the Tori factor.

That's the big factor.

Where does she stand?

Tori's a loose cannon,
and right now she's safe.

But with one swing of a hammer,
she's vulnerable.

It's tremendous power.

Ah, it's just a tough decision.

Do I smash the glass

or do I just walk away?

You know, the devil you do
or the devil don't.

how are you?

Two days, two nights. Long time

-How'd it go?

It was tiring. Had to do
everything by yourself.

Blessed that there was no rain,
um, but it was tough.

It was real tough.

PROBST:
All right.

When you sent Rocksroy away,

you gave him
the power to change the game.

Rocksroy has the power to leave
things exactly as they are.

Whatever happened,

being safe, but it's time to...

-PROBST: Tori,

you can hardly
look over this way.

TORI:
Keep in mind we sent you

not just to be exiled
for two days by yourself.

We sent you knowing
that you had power.

So I'm pretty pissed off that
that ended up happening,

because I actually was
doing that to maybe help you.

(laughs softly)

So, Tori, you're saying
that your decision

to not take the power yourself
and give it to Rocksroy

-was a gift to Rocksroy.
-(laughter)

Partially.

I mean, I really,
I know Rocksroy.

I got to live with him
for quite a few days,

and I feel like if he had
the choice between food

or gaining power in this game,

he was gonna choose power.

ROCKSROY: But what can I do?

Tori, you should know that

if I'm sent someplace,
I'm gonna stick with how I feel.

I'm gonna make a decision.

PROBST:
All right.

-Cannot be voted out tonight.
-Yes.

Go ahead and put your Buffs on.

Wow, it smells clean.

All right, let's get to it.

For today's challenge,
you're gonna pull

on a rope
while balancing a wobbly table

and stacking letter blocks.

If at any point
your stack drops,

you have to start over.

First person

from the bottom to the top.

MARYANNE:
I-M-M-U-N-I...

PROBST:
If your stack drops,
you got to start over.

Everybody racing out
with that first letter.

Six people, who, moments ago,
thought they were safe...

...now fighting to be safe.

Jonathan back first.
Has his second block.

He's heading back out.

Everybody else pretty even.

-Good job, everyone.
-PROBST: Couple of different
ways to play this.

You can be very slow
and steady...

...or, if you're behind,

-you may have to get
a little more aggressive.
-Whoa.

But as your stack grows,

that wobbly table
becomes much more important.

Oh, no.

Maryanne dropped...
Oh, Maryanne let everything go.

-(laughs)
-PROBST: I'm not sure why.

MARYANNE:
I dropped one.
I don't want to mess up.

It's easier just to start over.

All right, that makes sense.

Jonathan places
his second block.

Tori places hers.
They're even.

It is Tori and Jonathan
right now.

Here comes Maryanne--
still smiling.

(laughs)

PROBST:
Hai places his second block.

Here comes Lindsay
out with her second.

-Let's go, guys.
-Eight letters total.

-OMAR: Good work.
-Still a lot of challenge left.

Hai places his sixth block.

It is Hai in the lead
right now.

Then Jonathan, then Lindsay,

then Tori, then Lydia

and then Maryanne.

I-M-M-U-N.

PROBST:
Hai is now two blocks away from
winning individual immunity.

Now you're gonna see the
adrenaline start to kick in...

-Ah.
-as Hai gets closer and
closer to closing this out.

Tori trying to get out quickly
with her sixth,

as Hai reaches for his seventh.

Let's go, Hai.
You got this, buddy.

PROBST:
He has two left.

Lydia drops.

Lydia's got to start over.

It's still Hai in the lead.

He's coming out
with his seventh block.

Hai loses everything.

It is now Tori and Jonathan
in the lead, just like that.

Tori now overtaking Jonathan.

Tori places her seventh letter.

She has one left.

Jonathan coming out with his
seventh letter, still wobbling.

-Jonathan drops everything!
-(gasps, groans)

He's out.
It is now Tori in the lead.

Lindsay the only one
that can catch her right now.

Tori heading back for her eighth
and final letter.

Jonathan, frustration.

So close.

You got to keep fighting

because anybody could drop
at any time,

and suddenly,
you're in the lead.

DREA:
Take it easy, guys.

PROBST:
Lindsay places her seventh.

-She's heading back
for her eighth.
-Easy.

PROBST:
Tori slowly reaching
for that eighth.

You have to be very careful.

You don't want to drop here.

Lindsay has
slowly increased her pace,

but it's making a difference.

She is gaining on Tori.

Tori still in the lead.

You got to get all the way out.

Then you got to get
all the way back to win this.

PROBST:
Lindsay is on the platform.

Now she's got to reach
for that eighth block

as Tori reaches
to place her eighth block.

Lindsay has it.
She's heading back out.

-Aw.
-PROBST: Tori has
her final block

and a time advantage.

Lindsay will have
to make up time,

or Tori will have
to make a mistake.

-Aah!
-(gasps)

PROBST:
Lindsay drops everything.

One little hesitation
on that rope,

everything is gone.

Lydia places her sixth.

And... drops everything. Done.

It is now Tori and then
Maryanne, and that's it.

-(Tori groaning)
-PROBST: Maryanne
heading back out

with her seventh block.

Maryanne could be in the lead
if something happened

to Tori's stack.

-Ooh.
-Oh.
-(indistinct murmuring)

PROBST:
Tori with a lot of movement
on that stack,

but it's staying together.

Oh, my God.

PROBST:
Tori is two steps away
from winning this challenge.

All she has to do is
get both feet on that platform

with all of her blocks

-intact.
-Oh.

PROBST:
Maryanne places
her seventh letter.

PROBST:
There's one.

Get it up there, girl.

First individual immunity
of the season.

Yeah!

You are safe, cannot be voted
out of this game.

-Oh, my God.
-You will make the final 11.

You will at least be
on the jury.

You're not going home tonight.
Maryanne, Lindsay,

Lydia, Hai, Jonathan,

one of the five of you
will be voted out.

Your dream will come to an end.

Everybody's voting tonight.

But you have one
of five choices.

-Won't be you. Congratulations.
Grab your stuff.
-Thank you.

-Head back to camp.
-MIKE: Yeah, great job, Tori.

PROBST:
See you tonight at Tribal.

LYDIA:
Tori and Chanelle were
in trouble,

and now they are both safe.

So it was basically worst-case
scenario for everybody.

And now we have to completely,
you know, 180

and have
to have a whole different plan,

and it is going to be,

like, every... just chaos.

-MARYANNE: Yeah, first immunity
of the season!
-Thank you.

We haven't put it in yet, man.
We're waiting for you.

-Good to meet you, bro.
-Good to meet you.

I hear you're
the fire guy over here.

ROCKSROY:
I am safe for tonight.

I am safe for now.

Guys that-that
did the challenge,

you know, I feel for you.
I really...

-Yeah.
-I definitely did.

There's literally
no hard feelings from me.

ROCKSROY:
Because I've been away,
I'm gonna have to build

alliances pretty quickly.

Yeah, man, I'm gonna go see
if I can spear something.

Come on, man.

ROCKSROY: But I don't know
what's been happening

in the last two days.

I don't know what alliances
have been made. I have no clue.

Can you get me a boat?
I'll go back to that island

I was on for a couple more days.

Uh, like you, Rocksroy,
I'm-I'm a straight sh**ter.

I'm straight sh**ting.

I'm not just saying this 'cause
you're here. You can ask Drea.

She already put you
in this alliance.

-We got eight people.
-Okay.

I mean-I mean,
it would be stupid.

-He's gonna win everything.
-Yeah.

This is our chance. If we don't
do it now, we're dumb.

-ROCKSROY: Shut the front door.
-Yeah, bro.

-ROCKSROY: Oh, baby.
-Oh, my gosh.

-That's right.
-Aah.

ROCKSROY:
He's spitting.

You see, these guys are
doing the guy...

-(guttural groaning)
-I know. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Already.
I mean, did you not see it?

-Yeah. Yeah.
-Get out of here.

I mean, Mike is so far up
Jonathan's ...

-it's disgusting.
-Yeah.

-He's a beast, man.
-TORI: Golden boy.

-Man after my own heart.
-TORI: Yeah. For sure.

He is. He's a man's man.
I love that.

-You know how I am.
-TORI: Yeah.

-ROMEO:
He sleeps next to him.
-TORI: Yeah.

ROMEO:
He... They wake up--
"Let's go see the sunset."

-Get out here.
-The energy.
Did someone give you food?

-Oh, my gosh.
-No, I'm just, like, honestly,
this is sort of...

-Yeah. They're...
-This is the second part
of Survivor.

-Yeah.
-And this is where
Romeo comes out.

-Oh, come on. Yes. Yes.
-You know... you know who I am.

-You know who I am.
-Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

ROMEO:
I was terrified
because I didn't have a Buff.

Now it's like
I have power again,

and I just feel like
a different person.

I'm power hungry,
I want control again, and

I want Jonathan gone.

Here's the thing. If it's not
him, it's gonna be you.

-I know. I know.
-They're not gonna vote
for one of the girls.

I know that physicality
is the merge boot. Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

MARYANNE: I really don't want
to vote for Jonathan,

but the thing is,
options are limited.

It's, like, my butt
is on the line, too,

and I'm talking
and I'm strategizing

and I'm scrambling, 'cause,
like, there's only five people

not safe for this Tribal--
Jonathan,

Hai, me, Lindsay and Lydia.

Jonathan is going to be
a very physical threat,

I think, going forward.

-He's terrible
with puzzles, though.
-Is he really?

And he's super helpful

-with having food.
-Which is fine, yeah.

-And, like, all of that.
-Mm-hmm.

-I mean, I'm-I'm open.
-Yeah. For sure.
-Yeah, me, too.

-But, like, Maryanne--
she's all over the place.
-Yes.

LINDSAY:
Like, she's going crazy
in her head,

so many different things,
and she's super strategic.

-Jonathan's not as strategic.
-Yeah.
-For sure.

Do you think she has anything
other than the Shot in the Dark?

-Yeah?
-(Lydia gasps)

LINDSAY: My biggest pitch
is Maryanne-- that she has

a lot of hidden a*mo.

And I don't want to pitch Hai

because I want
to work with Hai.

Secondly, Hai told me that him

and Lydia were gonna go
for rocks for each other.

So the only option left

is Maryanne.

-Good chat.
-We can talk later. Yeah.
-Yeah.

LINDSAY:
I need people
to be more fearful

of the power that she has versus

a potential threat of me
or Jonathan,

'cause that's what it seems
like it's coming down to.

-No.
-No. Did it for you?

CHANELLE:
I see right through it.

Lindsay's put her pitch out
to protect herself and Jonathan.

He catches food,
and people are mesmerized

by the "golden boy"
kind of thing.

He's not golden to me.

Like, he could go on streak,
and that's always scary.

-Because, you know?
-CHANELLE: Yup.

CHANELLE:
Kind of seems like a no-brainer.

-Yeah, I'm definitely down
with that. Like, it's not...
-Mm-hmm.

You guys can do what you want,
'cause, like, I have no...

-I'm safe, and I have no vote.
-No, it's fine.

-So, ultimately, it's your game.
-Mm-hmm.

OMAR: My first instinct,

knowing that I'm safe
and I don't have a vote,

is to just shut the heck up
and not say anything.

Because why?
Why would I jeopardize

my position in the game?

But the more I thought about it,
I'm like, "This is terrible."

Omar, this is the time
that I need your help.

I know. That's why
I'm hustling for you.

-Help me.
-I am. I am.

JONATHAN:
I'm obviously
the biggest threat out here

when it comes to physical,

and if I were them,
I would vote me out.

But I'm gonna keep

fighting in this game
'till I'm dead.

I'm voting for Maryanne,
and, uh,

stick with me.
I promise, I'm loyal.

Well, if someone has to go,
then it's gonna be Maryanne.

Here's the problem, though.
The fact

that I have
to put my trust in people

that I met a day
and a half ago is very scary.

But we're supposed to be
an alliance of eight, and, uh,

I am confident in Omar

keeping people off my back.

Yes. Yes.

Um...

But I did speak to Lindsay,
and she was saying, like,

-Maryanne is, like,
a huge liability.
-Oh.

So, it's, like, it's really
what does your gut say--

-Jonathan versus Maryanne?
-(sighs)

It feels like you're swayed
Jonathan over Maryanne.

I just want to do majority.

There is eight of us that want
to all work together, but

there is just this point
where I'm, like, "I just

want to go with the numbers."

I don't want to be the one
on the bottom.

And I kind of feel like

we could be good.
We could be good,

but this game changes so fast,
so, actually, who knows?

I'm so worried. Like,
you can't prepare for anything.

Okay.

-Yeah.
-(laughs)

OMAR:
Lydia says to me,

"Like, I'm really torn."

And I'm like,
"This is opportunity."

Like, you're telling me

you don't know if you want
to stick with the eight.

And that's my opening to say,

"Sacrifice little Lydia."

Thing is, now I feel
it's between Lydia and Maryanne.

-Positive?
-And then I think
it's going to be something.

While it will be Jonathan
and not you.

I feel like you and Lindsay were
really on the Maryanne train,

-which I-I see, long-term.
-Mm-hmm.

But right now, it's too early,
and she's useful to us.

OMAR:
I'm trying to bring Taku
back together because,

at this point,
Maryanne has an extra vote

and a hidden immunity idol,
and I don't want either one

of those things
going out of the game

because I'm gonna need weapons,
I'm gonna need arsenal,

and I'm gonna need an army.

You were the primary at first,

but I'm trying
to shift it to Lydia.

-Why was I the primary?
-I don't know.

There's rumors
that you have an idol,

so I think
other tribes know about it.

-Okay, just be chill, okay?
I need you to be chill.
-Okay. Yup.

-Because if you blow it...
-It's gone.

I'm shifting things to Lydia.

Okay,
so I write down Lydia's name?

At Tribal, you need
to write down "Lydia."

And if I'm not successful...

That's fine.

My jaw just dropped.

I was like, "Why me?"

Like, I don't want to go out
before the merge.

I've worked so hard
to be here, and

I'm so terrified. All I want
to do is cry and scream.

But, like,
I know that in this game,

I have to go, and I have

to center myself,
and I have to stay calm.

I feel as if me playing my idol

right now--
it all comes down to Omar.

The plan is obvious.
We need to switch to Lydia.

-Oh, wow.
-Yeah.

Yeah?

OMAR:
In this game,

you take a little bit
of information, and that's

where you weave in your own lies

or your own truths
to prime them of the fact

that Lydia's maybe not
on their side, long-term.

But Lydia right now is Hai's
number-one ally in the game.

This is one of

the toughest jobs I've had
out here since I've started.

I didn't want
to upset the eight

-before it got to the point.
-Right. Right.

-So I didn't think
it was my place to say it yet.
-Right.

OMAR:
But Lydia is like,
"At some point

within the eight, we need
to go after the bigger players."

I think Jonathan--
it's too early for him, but now,

it's, like,
Maryanne's the only one,

-and she has an immunity idol.
-Yup.

If she plays that,
it's one of the eight.

So, Lydia is the choice here.

♪ ♪

But I want to make sure
all three of us are

-on board for the plan.
-MIKE: Hai,

if that's what you think,
I'm with you.

HAI:
Not an option at all.

Lydia and I have been day ones
out here, and I gave her

my word
that I would protect her.

So now I have to

scramble and get her
the numbers to stay.

Okay, and now I need to get
enough votes for Maryanne.

It's Jonathan and Maryanne.

Tonight's tricky.
There seems to be

a group who wants to target

the more physical players,

such as Jonathan.
which I don't like,

'cause I consider myself

one of the more physical
people here.

I want to win more
individual immunities, okay?

And I feel like
you would stand in my way.

HAI:
Which is why I need Maryanne
to go home tonight.

However, the issue is,

we know for a fact
that Maryanne has an idol.

Exactly, so we might be...
we might just slip by.

HAI:
In Survivor,

your relationships
take precedent,

and Lydia going home
will only hurt my game.

This game is wild.
Moments like these

are where good players

fold, and great players

prevail.

Wow. Everybody here.

-First time.
-It's a good-looking bunch,
huh?

It really is. I was just kind of
taking everybody in, yeah.

-And we love you, Mr. Jeff.
-(laughter)

-PROBST: Mr. Jeff. Yeah,
I'm getting used to that.
-Yeah.

(laughter)

PROBST:
All right. Hai,

how do you feel about this?
Is this

-a defining vote tonight?
-It is a defining vote,

but things are a lot more fluid
this season.

Tribal lines are typically
with your starting tribe.

However, this season,
it's very fluid,

it's always moving,
and everyone's in conversation.

OMAR:
Everyone said,

"Let's go get firewood,"
but that firewood is empty.

LINDSAY:
I noticed that.

(laughter)

PROBST:
So Romeo, what do you base

trust on at this point

when you don't know
a lot of these people?

I don't know about them, but for
me, it's always a gut feeling.

How are they interacting
with me?

Do they want
to start a conversation?

Or are they just starting
a nonsense conversation

just to say
that they talked to me?

I can look at somebody
in the eye

and know if they're telling me
the truth or not.

Simple. That's just a gift
I've had since I was a child.

PROBST:
Drea, it's interesting.

Romeo gave
a very specific situation

of somebody coming up and just
starting a BS conversation.

-Right.
-Do you feel like
you can pick up those cues?

DREA:
I'm very good at that,
but maybe

someone didn't come
to talk to you

because they didn't feel
comfortable coming to talk

to you or something like that.

So, I see both sides.

PROBST:
Hai, that's a very
sophisticated approach.

You cannot just wait.

Sometimes you have to stick
your hand out and say,

"Want to talk?"

Yeah, it's the idea of,
are you a driver

or are you a passenger?

You know, for me, growing up,

I didn't have a lot
of confidence,

and I knew coming out here,
I didn't want to be

that version of myself.

I wanted to come out here
and play with confidence

because if you come out here
and you play a fearful game,

you're not gonna get anywhere.

PROBST:
Lydia, I really connected

-with which version
of yourself you want to show.
-Yeah.

When I was in high school,
we moved from Wichita, Kansas

to Seattle, Washington,

when I'm in the middle
of high school.

And I decided I'm going to put
a different version of myself

out in this new high school.

Have you had any of that
yourself

out here in terms
of what parts

of me am I gonna put out
and what parts am I gonna hide?

LYDIA:
Yeah. Growing up,

I-I faked a lot of confidence,
you know.

And leaving my hometown
and just, like,

gaining independence and just
accepting parts of myself

that I never even realized.

You know, it... the confidence
actually became real.

And in Survivor specifically,

you're going
to just play better

and you're gonna feel better

if you are just
your full authentic self.

PROBST:
Jonathan, one of the things

you have to do in this game is
hide your paranoia or your fear.

You know, the "never let 'em
see you sweat" thing.

Does paranoia get to you?

There's a point in the game

where you've done
all that you can do.

And whoever
gets kicked out of here,

I hope that they go,
"I did everything I could do.

"When I had the opportunity
to be on Survivor,

I left it here."

PROBST:
Omar, that would be

the best way to approach
every Tribal Council.

-Yeah.
-Can you do that?

Uh, my younger self would not
have been able to do that.

I think my older self--
now that I'm 30...

-(laughter)
-PROBST: Wow.

Let me just
take that statement in

-for a moment.
-Yeah. He don't know old, man.

-Oh, that hurt.
-OMAR: I would say now

that I've had some
life experience, you can just

look at it factually, and
you know that at some point,

somebody's gonna come for you.

So I feel like
I can just tell people, like,

I'm worried,
and not dwell on it.

PROBST:
Rocksroy,

-you came into this late.
-Yes.

PROBST:
Could you sense a direction
of why the vote

might be going the way
it's gonna go?

ROCKSROY:
Yeah, it's a tough one because

I'm coming in this
two days of not being here.

But one of the things I know
that I can rely on is

the bond that I've built
with my alliance.

And then there's a part of me,
also, that feels pretty bad

because it's, like, my decision
is ultimately is the reason why

one of these people
are going home tonight.

PROBST:
Maryanne, what do you
think the theme

of the vote is tonight?

MARYANNE:
Who can I continue
to work with and

who do I want to work with
for a long span of time?

PROBST:
Drea, you agree with that?

-No, I don't agree with that.
-Okay, that's fine.

'Cause tomorrow,
someone could be gunning for me,

and then I might have to depend
on someone else to save me.

So, yeah, it's always changing.

But you choose your vote
because you think

that person's going
to work with you.

But if they change their mind,
then of course,

you're not going
to work with them.

So then, I feel as if
we're on the same page,

different part of the line.

-Yeah?
-So you agree with me?

-And you agree with me?
-No, I agree that

this doesn't mean that
this could take you long-term.

-It's Survivor. Yeah.
-Exactly. We're on the same
page, I think.

Not really. Agree to disagree.

-And I respect that.
-PROBST: So Maryanne,

for all the charm,
do you worry talking too much

or debating too much
could be a reason

where the group just says,
"You know what?

"I just... I need
to get some sleep.

Let's just vote Maryanne out"?

Obviously,
I do worry about that.

But the thing about Survivor
is I can show

my true self, and, like,
that means not be subdued.

That means that, like,
if I have a weird thing

which I want to say,
I want to say it. Like,

I wanted people
to know me for who I am.

Like, everyone in this tribe

has great qualities,
and everyone

in this tribe has things
that they want to work on.

Some of these things
might be obvious

to everybody,
some of these things might be

less obvious to everybody.

Mine are obviously more obvious
to everyone, 'cause I'm just

like a "Blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, blah, blah." But, like,

I knew that coming into the...
What was your question?

(laughter)

(insect whirring)

-Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
-DREA: What is that?

MARYANNE:
It's, like, a beetle
or something.

-Or a rat.
-It's just a beetle.

-He's on me.
-Big-a*s beetle.

-Look. He's right here.
-No! Aah! Ooh!

-TORI: Oh, my God.
-ROCKSROY: We're in
his neighborhood.

MARYANNE:
No, I know. It's all good.

It's all good. I'm fine with it.

Oh, you actually
do have one there.

-Yeah, he literally does.
It's there.
-Oh, that's cool.

-MARYANNE: Exactly.
-ROCKSROY: Just a beetle.

PROBST:
So Chanelle, are you
better off on Survivor

to try to quiet your quirks?

Or, as Maryanne is,
just embrace who you are?

CHANELLE:
That's what this game

is supposed
to bring out of you--

the fullest version
of yourself

where you are meeting
your highest potential.

And if you're not authentic,

people will
see right through that.

HAI:
Jeff, there are

12 realities here,

and each one of us have
a different perception

of every single other person.

So even if you think
someone's telling you the truth,

it could be a lie, so,
lies will be revealed tonight.

All right,

I got blindsided

it sucks, for sure, but as much
