"It's day 13, and the game
is about to change"!

-Yeah!
-[cheering]

PROBST:
Previously onSurvivor...

Congratulations.

You have made the merge.

[cheering]

Let's go!

[whooping, laughing]

PROBST:
This is over.

Sophie wins first
individual immunity challenge

of Survivor49.

[crying]

It's been, like,
forever since I got to...

-I know.
-...see my, my squad.

The original Uli think
that they have me and Sage,

but our goal is

to take these guys out.

You tell me to vote,
I'll write it down.

I appreciate you so much.

At the moment,
I've got the original

Hina members, and I've also
got Sage and Jawan.

So...

we have the majority.

SAGE:
I'm getting a taste of revenge.

All hell is gonna break loose.

RIZO:
Jeff,

we'll play
a little show-and-tell.

So, I do have it with me.

Uh, I'm-a be honest.

I do plan on playing it.

If anybody has an advantage or
an idol and you want to play it,

now would be the time to do so.

MC:
Jeff.

I'm not sure I need to use it,
but I'd rather secure my spot.

Okay.

Eighth person voted out and
the first member of our jury:

Nate.

-The tribe has spoken.
-Yes, sir.

♪

JAWAN:
Tribal Council went perfectly.

We pulled off
the biggest move of Survivor49,

and it feels amazing.

This is sweet because
I started out this game

kind of on the bottom, and...

nothing is sweeter
than a little bit of revenge.

[sputters]

-Yeah.
-ALEX: Top ten.

-KRISTINA: Top ten.
-SAVANNAH: That's crazy.

-Ten percent chance.
-Top ten.

STEVEN: Tribal Council
solidified where the lines were

and in such a sweet way.

The group that's
in control right now

is the Hina members
with Sage, Jawan and Alex.

We have seven members
that are working together,

and we have the majority.

This is so awkward.

STEVEN: It's so interesting
how people's personalities

and dynamic change
when they're on the top

and when they're on the bottom.

I feel like Savannah, Rizo, Nate

and Soph felt like
they were running the show.

Now it's
a totally shifted dynamic,

and they're spooked.

It's about time they feel what
it's like to be on the bottom.

SOPHI:
I just want to tell you that...

And I was like, "Okay, I haven't
really talked game with Steven."

-Like... So...
-STEVEN: Yeah.

-No, I-I totally get it.
-Yeah.

Oh, my God.

I was completely
bamboozled today.

And, God, was I wrong, you know?

Oh, my God. There's something...

Aah! Sorry.

God, was I wrong.

So I'm kind of
freaking out right now.

Where do I go from here?

ALEX:
No one is mad at you at all.

But I wrote down Steven's name,

and he's still in the game.
That's the problem, but...

I mean, Steven's
going for Savannah and Rizo.

Like, they're gonna
get broken up the next vote.

SOPHI:
As emotionally attached
as I feel to Rizo and Savannah

at this moment,

it's very clear that

they're gonna
anchor me down in this game.

And so, if me going forward
means having

to cut Savannah and Rizo,

unfortunately I have to do that.

-I know.
-I know.
-[chuckles]

I know. There's
a lot of up in the air.

-Does she have it? Does she not?
-ALEX: No...

MC:
I played my idol at Tribal.

I didn't need it, but...

I needed just one Tribal Council
to see who's really on my side,

and then I can know
who I can trust in the future.

I know. I know...

And some people felt
a little bit more hurt,

but that's
the game ofSurvivor.

You can't
show everyone your cards.

So people got to get over it.

[laughs]

I understand.

JAWAN:
I told MC the plan.

I told her
that she had me and Sage,

and we had
the majority of votes.

She still played her idol, so
that means she doesn't trust us.

So...

I want to keep my options open.

-You're still my boy.
-Yeah.

-I still care about you.
-100%.

-I'm sorry.
-I'm telling you right now,

you don't have to apologize.

JAWAN:
So when we got back to camp,

I tried
to do my best "damage control."

It was better Nate than me,
so...

I appreciate that.

I promise you,
it wasn't gonna ever be you.

But...

next on the hit list
is Savannah and Rizo.

So I want them to think

that they're
still able to work with me,

but I have no intention

on working with them
moving forward.

-L-Look at me.
-Yeah.

-I-I'm-- Game aside...
-Yeah.

...I told you,
from the bottom of my heart...

-Yeah.
-...you don't have to, like, you
don't have to defend yourself.

-Yeah.
-This is what
you thought was the best.

And I'm still here.

Forget the past.

You don't have
to do damage control with me.

The fact that Jawan and Sage
blindsided me is not ideal,

but there's a lot of pros
to what just happened.

I kept my idol,
and I did not go home.

And now,

with Nate leaving,

it makes the opportunity for me
to play a more fluid game.

-Yeah, yeah.
-I mean it from the bottom
of my heart, bro.

-There's no hard feelings.
Love you, dawg.
-Appreciate you.

RIZO:
I would love to work with Sage
and Jawan for the time being.

And I can't wait

to see
what this game has in store,

'cause even though
I might be on the bottom,

don't count
your boy out just yet.

We are now the minority.

Right.

RIZO:
But we cannot be bitter.

-I'm not... No.
-We cannot be mad.

SAVANNAH:
Tribal Council

was really a huge wake-up call

that I have
no idea what's going on.

I know.

SAVANNAH:
I don't have
any allegiances anymore

other than Rizo and Soph
right now.

This has been maybe the hardest
part of my game so far,

but there's a way out.

So, right now

I got a lot of repairing
to do with these people.

I thought
my butt was on the line,

and so I apologize.

I want to say thank you

for keeping me here,
and I'm so proud of you.

Congrats on the first
official blindside.

-Yay.
-[laughter]

I feel very grateful
because I know that

it could have been me tonight,
and it wasn't.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Right now
I do have a lot of self-doubt,

because I'm in a place where
I know people don't trust me.

So I'm just kind of
in self-preservation mode,

and it makes me really scared
for my game moving forward.

SAGE:
Are we gonna have

the coolest banner ever?

Dang, that shark is crazy.

You seriously nailed it.

STEVEN:
Sophie, that looks amazing.

SAGE:
Okay, artist.

SOPHIE:
Now I'm gonna pimp it out

with the yellow.

JAWAN:
Oh, yeah.

SOPHIE:
I've always loved makeup,

and in college,
there was a makeup class.

-I took it as an elective.
-JAWAN: That's cool.

SOPHIE:
I thought I was gonna
be learning how to,

like, contour. No.

It was makeup for the stage.

-I was learning how to,
like, age myself.
-[overlapping chatter]

SOPHIE:
It was so crazy.

I love that.

SOPHIE:
Once I had to make myself
into, like, a bird.

I had to, like, glue feathers
to my face. It was a blast.

[clucks]

ALEX:
I'm sure MC is kicking herself
in the butt right now,

because she played
her immunity idol last night.

And...

when an idol is played,
it goes back into the jungle.

On old Kele, I had an idol.

Right now I have no coverage,

and I want
to feel comfortable again.

So...

if you can get
a good group to say,

"Let's just go look together,"

that's better.

STEVEN:
I looked over
by the water well already.

And I looked over here.

I feel like
maybe let's go this way.

Hindsight,
it would have been great

if MC didn't play her idol,

because now we have an idol

that's out in the jungle.

This is not
an offensive idol search.

This is a defensive idol search.

We are trying to block Soph,

Savannah and Rizo
from finding that idol.

It's like, could it
be tangled up in branches?

I don't know.

Ow.

I always hurt myself.

KRISTINA: It's legit been
15 days of idol searching,

and it is the most
exhausting thing of my life.

It's very tiring.

There's a lot

of bugs involved.

And it really just feels
like you're looking for

a needle in a haystack.

Truly, it's like,
where in this big old jungle

could this little piece
of parchment be?

♪

ALEX:
No way.

STEVEN:
Wait, you found it?

No way. Kristina.

Dude.

I finally found something.

I'm so excited.

-ALEX: Wow.
-[Kristina exclaims]

-[Alex exclaims]
-STEVEN: No way.

KRISTINA:
I didn't have
to do a Beware Advantage.

I didn't have to risk anything.

Like, it's just
a certified idol right there.

"Congratulations.

"You have found
a hidden immunity idol.

"When played at Tribal Council,

"any votes cast
against you will not count.

"The last time this can be used

is when there are five players
left in the game."

Okay.

My best-case scenario
was to find an idol by myself.

But if I was gonna find it

with anyone,

then I'm really happy that
it was Alex and with Steven.

-ALEX: Phew.
-Please keep it a secret.

-Yes, of course.
-Yeah, just us three.

'Cause I-I will for sure use it

-for one of y'all if I can.
-ALEX: No, no.

I know, I know.

Of course I'm bummed

that I wasn't the one
to find the immunity idol,

but Kristina
just said she'll play it for us.

And I'm eating it up
because I want the power.

I have this information,

and now if I'm in dire need
at some point,

maybe I can convince her
to use it for me

or, if I have to, throw her
under the bus by sharing

this information
about Kristina's idol

with everyone else.

And so knowing that Kristina
has an immunity idol

is gonna help me
so much down the road.

♪

JAWAN:
I'm so glad you're here, bro.

STEVEN:
Me, too, buddy.

I think we're sitting
in a good spot.

-Like...
-Yeah.

I think there are, like, obvious
targets ahead of us that,

-like... So...
-Yes.

Now I feel like

-the games
are really gonna begin.
-Yep.

STEVEN:
At the last Tribal Council,

I trusted in mission control

that we had
the right flight plan

and that we were
gonna hit the launch window

and be smooth sailing.

And, thankfully,
that's exactly what happened,

because this is the first time

this crew has come together
for a mission.

And now Savannah, Soph
and Rizo are on the bottom.

Out of all of those three,

I would love
to see Savannah go next.

She's rubbing some people
the wrong way.

That's good for me.

Maybe I will just
let her continue doing that.

JAWAN:
I think Savannah is interesting.

She's very friendly,
but deep down I'm like,

"Oh, man."

I kind of want her out
sooner rather than later, bro.

I think sh-she... her...
she would be my next pick,

if I had to, so...

JAWAN:
Last night we turned
on our original Uli members

and put them
in a minority, right?

But now

my worst nightmare

is freaking Savannah the Savage.

She's so fierce in this game.

I'm afraid of her.

So I want to make sure,
whatever happens next,

Savannah
doesn't come for my neck.

[laughs]

-Really beautiful.
-It is.

After the Nate vote, I'm trying
to still do damage control

and not put too much
of a target on my back.

And I really like Soph.

She's someone I would absolutely
love to have by my side,

at least for the time being.

So this is me trying
to rebuild trust with you.

And I don't know
if it's intentional,

I don't know
if it's unintentional,

but Savannah, this whole time,

has just, like, continuously
made, like, digs at me.

-Really?
-Has been kind of condescending.

So, like, for example,
her and Rizo were saying, like,

"Oh, God, if Sage gets the
chicken, she's gonna bug out."

And she's, like,
naming it General Tso.

Oh, wow.

And she just keeps doing
stuff like that of, like...

She's, like, picking on you.

-...trying to get
a reaction out of me.
-Yeah.

I feel for you.
And that's why I'm, like,

I don't--
I'm not attached to her.

-Yeah.
-It was just, like,
a circumstantial thing.

Like, I didn't know
anybody else.

-You know?
-Totally, totally, totally.

But, like, this is a different
part of the game.

And, like, I'm ready to shift.

-I met you.
-Yeah.

And, like,
if you're willing to, like,

-put that trust into me,
too, I'm down.
-Yeah.

Like, we could
take control of this game.

SAGE:
The first merge vote,
like, I was advocating

for Savannah to go first,

but the group felt that Nate
would be a better option.

And I'm not gonna, like--
I can only push back so much

before the target turns on me,

but I would love Savannah gone

because she's
definitely not seeing me

as, like, a potential friend.

She's seeing me as a game piece,

so, like,
now I will see you as a pawn.

And you can
continue being a mean girl.

I'm not gonna
let it affect me anymore.

And I can be a mean girl, too.

Oh, how you feeling?

Honestly, like...

I'm cool with everything.
Like, I get it,

but I do feel
awkward this morning.

-Not with you.
-Yeah.

-Well...
-Like, you know...

No.

No, we're good.

Uh...

Do you know what you and Jawan
might do, like, next?

SAGE:
Genuinely, no idea,

because, like, yes,
the numbers were with Uli,

-but now
it's kind of even field.
-SAVANNAH: Yeah.

And, like, I don't necessarily
feel like I'm on the top, so...

-Uh-huh. Okay.
-...like, I genuinely
don't know what I'm gonna do.

-But once I do, I'll tell you.
-Okay.

-Thanks.
-SAGE: What about you?

-I literally have no idea.
-Yeah.

Like, for the first time
in this game, I can be like,

"I have no idea
what's going on."

Yeah.

-Well, welcome to the club.
[laughs]
-SAVANNAH: I know.

I feel like I finally, like--
was, like-- felt I got included

-in something, so...
-Yeah.

I don't think Sage really knows
how good she has it out here.

Everybody wants to work with
Sage or include her in the vote.

Everybody's constantly asking
her to go down to the beach.

And it's really hurtful

that she's painting me out
to be this person

who is so conniving,
and has all this power

and is
this strategic mastermind.

It feels almost like

she's painting herself
as a victim here.

But, like, you can't

paint yourself as a victim

if you're the one
who actually has that knife

and is doing all the stabbing.

It doesn't work like that.

-SOPHI: Ready?
-SAGE: Yes.

SAVANNAH:
I know that these people
probably do, genuinely,

not want to see someone sad,

so, like, I'm trying not to,
like, let it show, but...

right now, like,
I am feeling left out,

and I'm feeling like

no one wants
to have anything to do with me.

And I'm feeling like
the pariah of this group

and like I'm just like,
like, a loser.

[chuckles]

And... [exhales sharply]

...like, it brings up a lot
of really tough emotions for me,

because
I've felt like this before.

Did I tell you about my,
like, traumatic work situation?

-No.
-Um...

I was brought onto this team,

and, essentially, like,

the team thought
that I took someone's job

and that I didn't
deserve to be there.

So they, like, iced me out.

And, like, it was so bad.

Like, they wouldn't talk to me

unless we were, like,
in a group setting,

and, like,
it was, like, for show.

God, but, yeah,
it's like, it was a lot.

It was a job where I was
on camera, so, you know,

when the cameras are on,
they would talk to me.

And we would laugh
and we would make jokes

and everything would be good.

And as soon as it was
commercial break, nothing.

When we weren't on-air,
there was nothing.

They wouldn't talk to me.

They wouldn't even look at me.

They would all
get in their group,

and I could hear them, like,

even from, like,
literally six feet away,

just talking about me.

[breathes sharply]

And so, like, I went through
that for, like, two years.

Two years?

SAVANNAH:
Yeah, I was
under contract there,

so, like,
I literally could not leave.

And I'm like,
"Oh, my God, this sucks."

And then, uh,
it-it was so stressful

that it messed up
all my hormones.

So my body
was basically in flux.

I stopped getting a period.

I can't have kids naturally.

Like, it was so stressful,

it literally impacted, like,
the rest of my life.

-Whoa.
-Isn't that nuts?

-That's insane.
-Yeah.

So, like, that's why, like,

being on the outs here,
I'm like, "Oh, my God."

Like... [sniffles]

You know, it...

...it brings up
a lot of trauma that, like,

you almost, like,
forget about, right?

It's part of the reason
why I am who I am,

and I'm-I'm grateful for it,
in a weird way, but...

It's crazy what stress can do.

So...

That's heavy.

Yeah.

Being out here, like,

I knew
it was gonna be stressful.

I knew it was gonna be hard.

I knew I was gonna
probably cry a lot.

But, like, I had no idea
it was gonna be this trigger

for this wave of emotions
that I thought I had buried.

But trying to put my head down
and do whatever I need to do

in order to survive,
and I'm ready.

This is what I'm here for.

Come on in.

You can sort of see day 26.

Everybody is playing to win.

SAVANNAH:
I'm nervous as hell.

I thought Tribal Council
was gonna go one way,

and it went
totally the opposite.

I was in a severe minority.

It was a good play.
I respect it.

And I'm ready
to hopefully make some amends

and see what
we can do going forward.

All right, shall we get
to today's immunity challenge?

-Do it.
-Let's do it.

PROBST:
First things first, Sophie.

Got to take back the necklace.

-Thank you.
-Thank you.

-Are you good?
-You ready?

Yeah.

It's about to go down.

Once again,
immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge,
you're gonna use

your hands and arms
to brace against two walls

while your feet balance
on very narrow footholds.

At regular intervals,
we'll move down

to even smaller footholds,
making it more difficult.

If at any point you drop,
you're out.

There is a twist

-to today's challenge.
-SAGE: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

-[groans]
-SOPHIE: Classic.
-SOPHI: Of course.

You're going to randomly
divide into two groups of five.

You will compete
against each other as groups.

Here's how it works.

The winning group,
everybody earns immunity.

-Everybody's safe.

That group will not
go to Tribal Council.

-Wow.
-Oh...

earns an advantage.

Can she outlast
Sophie and Sage...

Sage, we got this.

...and secure immunity
for herself

and the rest of yellow?

Sophie, Sage, y'all got this.

-ALEX: You're good. You're good.

It is Savannah for yellow.

Sophie for blue.

This is for all the marbles.

One woman
is gonna win for her group...

The other will lose,

go to Tribal Council

no advantage.

PROBST:
Savannah's so confident,
she's asking about records.

JAWAN:
You're good.

You're gonna break the record,
Sophie. Let's go.

It seems to annoy Sophie.

Stay humble.

Sophie won
the first individual immunity.

This would be
back-to-back wins for her.

It would be Savannah's first
win, and from the sounds of it,

it couldn't come
at a better time.

SOPHI:
This would be
everything for you today.

We go here until we're done.

There is no
more narrow foothold.

You are
on the thinnest piece of wood.

JAWAN:
You're good, Sophie.

Whoo!

Savannah, Soph, Kristina,

Immunity tonight.

-No Tribal Council.
-KRISTINA: You did it.

SOPHI:
I'm so happy for you.

PROBST:
Meanwhile, Jawan,
Rizo, Sage, MC and Sophie,

Tribal Council tonight.

Nobody's safe.

Somebody going home.

What a challenge.

Man.

-Huge effort.
-I could hear you guys

-the whole time. Thank you.
-You were amazing.

First of all, let me just say,
that was a great showdown.

Sophie,
I know you're disappointed,

but that's all you can give
out here is all you got.

You clearly did.

The result
is victory for Savannah.

-Well done, Savannah.
-Thanks.

Great job, Savannah.

-Amazing job.
-Amazing job, dude.

PROBST:
Here's what's gonna happen.

Savannah, Soph,

Kristina, Steven, Alex,

you're gonna go back to camp,

where you will have an afternoon
of do-it-yourself sandwiches.

When the reward is over,

Savannah, you'll go to tree mail
for your advantage

and no Tribal Council tonight.

What's that feeling right now
for you, Savannah,

given that you said,
before we went,

you were terrified
of Tribal tonight?

Honestly, Jeff, the way
that things went last night,

I thought that,
if I didn't win today,

I would be the one
who was going home.

And, like, I feel like
I just needed this.

Also, like,

this is my one-year anniversary
with my boyfriend today.

And, like, the whole time,

I was just thinking about him
up there, and I could hear

people down here just saying,
"Do it for Brandon."

And it just feels like I've
always wanted to win immunity,

and it couldn't have come
at a better time.

Great work, dude.

PROBST:
All right, Savannah, Soph,
Kristina, Steven, Alex,

grab your stuff, head out.

Enjoy the afternoon.

[exhales deeply]

-SOPHI: Guys, sandwiches?
-KRISTINA: And the cookies.

STEVEN:
I forgot about
the chocolate chip cookies.

SOPHI:
Me, too.

PROBST:
All right, Sophie,
Jawan, Sage, Rizo, MC,

you're going to leave here,
and you're going

to go to the old Uli beach.

That means no communication

with the other five,

no eye signals,
no checking in, nothing.

Sophie, what's going
to happen this afternoon--

you are literally going
to be on an island

with these four other people
and then head to Tribal.

You know, this is a five that
hasn't all ever been together

as a fivesome before.

And we're missing the other half
of our tribe.

Right now my world has shrunk.

I have gone from a beach of ten.
I'm just on a beach of five.

If you don't make it out
of the beach of five,

it doesn't matter
what plans you had

for those other five folks
up there.

So, right now
this is all I'm looking at.

All right, you're going
to go to the old Uli camp.

I'll see you tonight
at Tribal Council,

where somebody will be
the ninth person voted out

and the second member
of our jury.

Grab your stuff, head out.

SAVANNAH:
I walked
into the immunity challenge,

and I knew I had to win this.

The whole time, I'm just like,

"This is my day.

I'm going
to turn my luck around today."

And coming from the bottom
at the last Tribal Council,

I'm like, "This could not have
happened to a better person.

I am so deserving of this."
[laughs]

RIZO:
Great job, guys.

MC:
That was a freaking
tough challenge.

SOPHIE:
I'm sorry. Really.

MC: Hey, you literally
don't need to apologize.

SOPHIE:
Today is not my best day
onSurvivor.

I do not like to lose,
but I especially

didn't want to lose today

because I didn't want
to lose to Savannah,

and I felt so much pressure
to win for my team.

Damn.

One person is going home
tonight, and

it could be anyone
because none of us are safe.

But, look, I'm down,
but I'm not down and out.

I can bring in MC,
Sage and Jawan,

and then we'll all vote Rizo.

But it gets complicated

because Rizo has an idol.

You guys need
to tell him it's me.

Like, "This might be the only
chance you can get Sophie out."

But, like, I don't want us
to seem, like, way too, like,

"Oh, let's all get Sophie,"
like, 'cause it'll seem fake.

But, like, the reality is,
I got second.

"What if she wins again?"

I feel like
there's a case to be made here,

-and we'll all just vote Rizo.
-Okay.

SOPHIE:
I mean, I am putting my game
in your hands,

but I think it makes sense.

JAWAN:
This plan could work.
Him and Savannah--

-they are both dangerous.
-SOPHIE: Yeah.

So this is gonna be a big move.

Yeah. I think this could work.

So everybody vote Rizo.

JAWAN: Coming back
to my old stomping grounds

with basically
a one-in-five shot

of going home-- it sucks.

One in five is scary.

But we have myself,

Sage, Sophie and MC.

So you would think, "Hey,

easy breezy,
Rizo's out of here."

The kicker is,
my man still has his idol.

So our goal is

to make Rizo feel safe
so he doesn't play his idol.

This is an opportunity
to kind of rebuild trust again.

-Yeah.
-If we come up with a name

and we stick to it,
that would make me feel good

'cause I love both of you guys.

Are we thinking
of leaning towards MC

-or Yellow Sophie?
-I don't care.

Genuinely,
whatever you want, I'll do.

Because either-or...

JAWAN:
Here's where I stand.

MC hurt my feelings
by not telling me information.

-Yeah.
-So part of me feels like

-I can't trust her
moving forward.
-Yeah.

-On the other hand,
Yellow Sophie's a badass.
-Yeah.

She's going to be
in every freaking challenge.

SAGE:
But she's going to come close.

My gut is telling us
to do Yellow Sophie tonight.

RIZO:
Thank God
that I rebuilt trust with Jawan

because I don't have
to play my idol.

Here's the thing.

Nobody wants to go home
with an idol in their pocket.

But being in tenth

or being in fourth
makes no difference for me.

I'm here to win this game.

So if this is another risk

that I need to take
to further myself in this game,

that's something
I'm willing to do.

So, okay, here's the deal.

It will hopefully be
the three of you on Rizo.

Ideally,
he does not play his idol.

One asterisk is--

and I'm only telling this
to you--

I will just throw one vote
on Jawan.

If he plays his idol,

then it'll be a tie
between me and Jawan.

And then it would be, we have
to vote for you or Jawan?

-Yeah.
-Okay, got it.

-I see.
-Yeah.

MC: Sophie mentioned to me
she's putting a vote on Jawan,

just in case Rizo uses his idol.

But I also don't necessarily
want to send Jawan home.

Because I played my idol
last Tribal Council,

Jawan felt a little bit hurt
that I didn't trust him,

but I do have that trust
in him now,

so now it's my turn to show him
that he can actually trust me.

Yesterday

-you showed me
that I can trust you.
-Mm-hmm. Yeah.

-So I'm going
to tell you something...
-Okay.

...to show you,
like, you can trust me,

but it cannot go anywhere.

-Locked in.
-Okay.

Goal is for Rizo
to not play his idol.

-Yeah. Yes.
-That's the primary goal.

-And we all vote him, right?
-Yep.

And then he will probably
put one vote on Sophie,

but Sophie is going
to put a vote on you.

Hmm.

Gotcha.

That shook me to my core.

That made me realize

Sophie's here to play.

I saw my name written down
one time.

I don't want to see it

written down again.

-After the tie...
-Yeah.

...it would be us four having
to choose

-between you or her.
-Gotcha. Yeah.

-I don't want to send you home.
-I appreciate that.

I don't want
to send her home either.

-Yeah.
-[sighs] And I...

Like, this is...
Like, literally,

like, me telling you this
could blow up everything.

-I just wanted
to let you know...
-Yeah.

...there could be
numbers on you.

-Thank you so much.
I appreciate you.
-Mm-hmm.

JAWAN:
Sophie is up there

with the most dangerous people
in this game.

Not only is she
a physical threat.

Now she's throwing my name out.

I don't know if I want to play

with people
that are on that speed.

She is a problem.

[overlapping chatter]

-ALEX: Can we do a toast?
-SAVANNAH: Oh, yeah.

Wait. Final nine, you guys.

[overlapping chatter, cheering]

SAVANNAH:
Winning immunity and being safe

could not have come
at a better time.

I feel so much relief.

For the first time,
I can actually just breathe.

Plus,

Jeff told me that there is going

to be an advantage
waiting for me at tree mail,

and I'm so excited.

But I'm also a little nervous,
depending on what it could be.

Can you imagine having
to scramble now?

-Oh, my God.
-No. I know.

-It's going to be a mad dash.
Like...
-SAVANNAH: Yeah.

...are they going to go back
to the Uli roots,

you know, of just, like,
"Let's just stick together

for this one, like,
and get on the same page"?

Half of our tribe-- they are
going to Tribal Council tonight.

We don't know
what to expect at this point.

And if they put all the votes
on Rizo

and he plays his idol,

he can decide
who goes home tonight.

-I wish we could go watch.
-ALEX: I wish we could see.

-STEVEN: I know.
-ALEX: Yeah.

ALEX:
I'll be honest.

KRISTINA: I think
it's going to be Sophie, too.

-Really?
-ALEX: Yeah.

I think Sophie just looks
like the biggest threat.

-You think?
-KRISTINA: Yeah.
-ALEX: Yeah.

ALEX: Sophie has been killing
challenge after challenge,

and getting her out tonight

opens up immunity challenges
for the rest of us.

She's a tough cookie.

Sophie going home tonight means
better luck

for me moving forward,
but people have to strike.

This is the chance
to playSurvivor.

And, hey, if I don't have
to get any blood on my hands,

even better.

All right, well, I'm gonna go

-check tree mail.
-ALEX: Whoo!
-KRISTINA: Have fun.

SAVANNAH:
Thinking about what
this advantage could be.

Maybe it'll be a Steal a Vote,
a Block a Vote, maybe

send someone an advantage at
Tribal or something like that.

I have no idea
what this could be.

Love this.

Oh, my gosh.

Been dying
for some jewelry out here.

And I know it looks good.

All right.

Let's read this.

"Your advantage
gives you the power

"at tonight's Tribal Council
in the form of a vote.

"You will now join
the losing tribe at their camp,

"where you may participate

in as many conversations
as you want."

Oh, my gosh.

So, tonight I'm going over
to the other group

that's going to Tribal Council,

and I'm going to join them
with my immunity necklace.

And then I'll actually

have the opportunity
to cast a vote.

"Then, when it's time to vote,

"you will enter
the voting confessional

"with an important decision.

"Use this vote tonight
to ensure the result you want,

or secretly save this vote for
use at a future Tribal Council."

Dude, this is insane.

Tonight I have the option
to either vote

or just pass it up

and save up this extra vote
for a later date.

"The boat is waiting.

Get on it now."

This is exactly what I needed
to turn my game around.

I deserve it.

Not only is it cool
that I get to go

to the other Tribal Council.

It is especially satisfying
with this group,

because after what
they put me through

at the last Tribal Council,

this is my revenge.

ALEX:
This was a really great reward.

Like, it was filling
and, like...

-This guy is, like, a lot.
-Wait. Why is there a yellow...?

Wait.

-What?
-Is she there? That's her, no?

-Wait. I'm confused.
-That is Savannah.

STEVEN:
Oh, that is her.

Wait. What?

Wait. Is she going to...?

-Where is she going?
-ALEX: Wait.

SAVANNAH:
This is a huge night for me.

This is going to be so funny.

They have no idea
what is in store for them.

They have no idea I'm coming

and that I'm coming
with a vengeance.

What is going on, Savannah?

♪

She'll put one vote on me.

She was trying to get me out.

Plan "A" was: take out Rizo.

But then MC told me
that Sophie had a secret plan.

If Rizo played an idol,

she would have
wrote my name down as a little

hinky vote to protect herself.

Her and Rizo are sharks.

I'm afraid of both of them.

And if we keep
the wrong dangerous player,

they could really be the reason

why me and Sage will be
in trouble in the future.

I don't think
anybody's going to be mad

by seeing us take out
Yellow Sophie.

They'll be like,
"Oh, that makes sense.

She was so close
to winning and everything."

And then we can double back
on Savannah and Rizo

'cause they'll earn our trust.

We'll get them next time.

So that's where my gut is
right now.

SAGE:
Jawan is just flipping
all over the place.

I'm thinking
we're still on the same page,

and he goes,
"Think we need to keep Rizo."

And I'm like,
"Crap, man, what do you mean?"

And if Jawan's not on board,

the plan doesn't work.

But I would much rather

stick with the original plan
and get Rizo out.

I think Jawan's out.

MC told Jawan

that you were putting a vote
on Jawan.

And so that made Jawan want
to back out of the Rizo vote

and go you instead
because he got spooked.

SOPHIE:
MC has blown up
this whole freaking game.

I had the most perfect plan.

We were going
to get rid of an idol

and somebody that we all
don't want to work with.

I don't know
if she's out to get me.

I don't know
if it's her own paranoia.

But what I'm learning

is that I guess
I can't trust MC.

I... I want to apologize
for throwing your name out,

and I hope
you can understand that.

Like, I-I do trust you and Sage.

-Yeah.
-I have been as honest as I...

-Like, when you get me
one-on-one...
-Yeah.

...I'm not, I'm not bull... you.
I'm telling you all the truth.

I, like... I'm coming clean

that, like, yes,
my plan was like,

if ... goes sideways,

I want to, like...

-I want... I want insurance.
-Honestly, I was like, "Damn."

I was like,
"Hey, that sucks," you know?

-I thought
MC really had my back.
-Yeah.

And I'm just learning more
and more that she maybe doesn't.

This is my darkest day
onSurvivor, but you can't

play a perfect game.

Everyone makes mistakes,
and this is my biggest mistake,

and I'm just hoping
it doesn't cost me my torch.

Oh, my God, it's a boat.

RIZO:
Really? You're joking.

-No. Like...
-RIZO: What?

JAWAN:
No, no, nah, nah.

-SOPHIE: Oh, my God.
-JAWAN: Is that...? Who...?

Is that someone on the boat?

-That is...
-Is that Savannah?

JAWAN:
No.

SAVANNAH:
I'm coming over
like the Grim Reaper.

But like a hot Grim Reaper,
you know? [laughs]

Well, this is a Survivorfirst.

SAVANNAH:
I'm coming over here,

ready, honestly,
to cause some chaos.

What's up?

♪

Hi.

-[laughs] Yeah.
-Welcome.

I'm happy to see you guys.

Do you mind
if I join you for the night?

-Yeah.
-Thank you.

SAGE:
A boat pulls up, and

who else is on it
other than Savannah,

um, looking as lovely as ever?

And she's got
this beautiful immunity necklace

around her neck.

If blindsiding Rizo was still
an option before she got here,

it sure does make things
more complicated,

'cause those two are, like,
thick as thieves.

Towards the end of the meal,
I went to go check tree mail,

and I saw the necklace there.

-RIZO: Nice.
-JAWAN: Nice.
-MC: I was thinking, I was like,

why didn't Jeff give you that
earlier?

I know.
I was thinking the same thing.

-Okay, I'm glad that you got it.
-I know. Me, too.

-But it was just
waiting up there, hanging out.
-Okay, nice.

And then there was a note
attached to it that said

I'm basically joining you guys
for Tribal Council.

-SOPHIE: Oh, my God.
-JAWAN: You're voting, too?
-Full stop.

-You're just a player with...?
-I'm a player with you.

-SOPHIE: Wow.
-JAWAN: Oh.
-Yeah.

-Oh, my God.
-SAVANNAH: Yeah.

-Yeah. Mm-hmm.
-SOPHIE: My God.

-SAGE: Nice.
-SOPHIE: Wow.

-Spicy.
-I know.

SAGE:
This is horrible.
Like, the two people

that I was literally
gunning for yesterday--

one has an immunity necklace.

The other one has
a hidden immunity idol.

And

I'm still not convinced

that Savannah doesn't have
more advantage

than just simply showing up
to Tribal.

Anything happen at the reward?

No, but I have the chance
to vote tonight,

or I can save my vote.

Come on. Okay.

It just keeps on getting

better and better.

The fact that I don't have
to use the idol.

And now the fact that my number
one ally has an opportunity

to bank her vote.

It's almost like a Christmas
miracle at this point.

And it almost feels surreal.

But I got to humble myself,

'cause tomorrow isn't promised.

Mm-hmm. That's fine.

Yep, exactly.

Everybody's common target
is Sophie,

so why are we going
to target someone

that other people want out?

Why are we doing
their dirty work?

I'm going to flip the script

and put a target on MC's back.

If we took out
Yellow Sophie now, who's next?

MC's going to have three people.
You get what I'm saying?

But if we don't take out
Yellow Sophie now,

she's a challenge beast.

She's not gonna win
every single one, though.

I don't know, man.
I do see what you're saying.

RIZO:
Yeah.

I feel like the biggest argument

to getting rid
of Sophie is the fact

that she's
this competition threat.

And to me, that's poor strategy.

Anybody can win a competition.

Savannah's won it.

Sophie is not the Terminator,
okay?

Sage is telling me
that she thinks

it's better for you
and Sage's game to keep MC.

-Yep.
-To me,

MC proved that
she did not trust you and Sage

because she played her idol.

So,

in a game of trust,
why would you keep someone

-who showed
that they didn't trust you?
-Yeah.

I think what you're saying
makes a lot of sense.

I'm legit 50-50 on it now.

RIZO:
I need MC
to be the vote tonight because

when I look at MC
and I look at Sophie,

I look at their spiderweb
of connections.

MC--
her web extends pretty wide.

Sophie's web of connections
is genuinely nobody.

So what better way for me
to get an ally in the next vote

than pick up Sophie

and just blindside MC?

-I'm gonna be honest.
-Yeah.

Like, I want to vote
with Jawan and Sage.

I'm gonna try
to get them to vote MC out.

I hope we point
at that direction.

Point at something
in the future.

-And then
you survive another day.
-Yeah.

All of a sudden, Rizo,

who, in theory, should have
been going home tonight,

is trying to take control
of the vote.

So that's insane.

-This is me now saying to you,
like...
-Yeah.

...are you willing
to work with me?
-In the future.

-And then
you survive another day.
-Yeah.

SOPHIE:
He wants to be fluid

and work with different people.

Okay, sure,
but his number one people

he wants to work with
are all his old tribe.

So, like, whatever, taking
that with a grain of salt.

If you all are writing
MC's name down, I will go MC.

What I need to weigh is,

do I go with Rizo's plan
to vote out MC,

or do I stick
with the original plan

to all vote Rizo?

And then...

-Yeah, I would say that.
-Okay. Okay.

And then, if he does
play his idol, though,

then that falls
on probably you or me, though.

Yeah. I know.

It's such a gamble.

Um, which is just...

I'm feeling weird energy,
I'm not gonna lie.

I'm feeling weird energy.

-From you.
-From me?

Yes.

I feel like you're gonna put
my name down tonight.

Be real with me, girl.

I'm doing my best to

make sure I'm on the right side
of the vote, but

the vibe around camp--
it's weird.

I feel like
there's something going on,

and I don't think
Sophie's telling me the truth.

I don't think
it matters what I vote tonight.

-I mean, I...
-Because I think

that they are...
they are picking between us.

I don't...
That's why I don't understand

why we're not sticking
with the original plan.

Rizo is overly cocky,
overly confident,

so I wouldn't be surprised
if he doesn't play his idol, but

people could get spooked
by that idol.

People could change their vote
last minute.

Everyone wants
to be here tomorrow.

Everyone has their own agenda.

We're in the individual game
now.

SAGE:
It sounds like Rizo's going MC.

JAWAN:
I think so, too...

And I want nothing more
than to get Rizo out.

JAWAN:
Me, too.

But with Savannah here now...

-Yeah.
-...you have to look
at every little thing.

Tonight's vote

becomes a debate of: is it

Rizo, Sophie or MC?

If I could take matters
into my own hands,

I would say, let's just
put all the votes on Rizo

and hope
that we get him and an idol out.

But Sophie--
she is a huge challenge threat,

and voting for her would do the
least damage going back to camp

'cause everyone can see
that Sophie's such a beast.

And then there's MC.

Last Tribal, she plays this idol
that she didn't need to play.

So, to me,
I'm seeing MC does not

trust me consistently.

You would think
that having less numbers,

it would be easier
to get on the same page,

but it seems like

everyone's on a totally
different page right now.

And I don't even know

if I'm reading the same book
as everyone.

♪

PROBST:
And now bring in
the first member

of our jury.

Wow.

[laughter]

PROBST:
Okay, let's start
with today's immunity challenge.

The big twist was,

you're divided
into two groups of five,

and only the losing five
will go to Tribal.

Savannah, you have
a completely different story.

You won the challenge today
for your five.

You also won it for yourself.

Part of it was,
you had an advantage.

-Explain to me how you ended up
joining this group.
-Right.

So, after I win our reward,
our group eats.

I get... I go over
to tree mail, and I see

this fantastic
immunity necklace,

which honestly couldn't
have come at a better time,

because I was previously
in the minority.

And I get to basically be here
for Tribal Council.

I get to have a say
in this vote.

It's a big decision.

PROBST:
So, Sophie,
what was this afternoon like?

Ooh.
What a difference a day makes.

I went
from sitting like Savannah,

I was on the right side
of the votes,

I had just eaten.

Now I do not have safety
at Tribal Council,

and I'm now at a beach without

a lot of the people
who were in my alliance.

Now there's just
this group of five.

We have three old Uli

plus Savannah, so it's tough.

PROBST:
So, Jawan, what happened

this afternoon when you all
went back to the old Uli camp?

It's been a little bit rocky,

and today's been
a little bit chaotic.

So I'm trying
to stay cool and collected,

but just because
I'm in the "majority," I...

I'm just gonna call
a spade a spade.

I blindsided Rizo and Savannah.

Savannah isn't even supposed
to be here.

So, even though
we might have the majority,

I have
to rebuild some relationships.

PROBST:
Rizo,

how'd you see this afternoon?

For me, truthfully,

and I mean this wholeheartedly,

even though Jawan, Sage and I
didn't vote together last round,

I wanted to repair that.

So I was very open
with everybody here,

and I said my intention tonight
is to stick with them.

PROBST:
Sage, everybody's talking
about the last Tribal,

-but that's a lifetime ago.
-SAGE: Totally.

This afternoon was tough,
I'm not going to lie.

Like, Sophie and MC, like,
they welcomed me with open arms.

You know, Rizo really seems like

he wants to do some repair
and like,

"Hey, like, how can we all,

like,
scratch each other's backs?"

And so, you get out here

and you form bonds,

and it freaking sucks,
if I'm being honest.

PROBST:
So, Sophie,
is it talked about as a group?

Do we have tribal lines or not?

Or is that something
that's just never spoken about?

SOPHIE:
When originally

it was just the five of us,

there was maybe some room
to maneuver.

We were trying some things,
we were trying to wiggle around.

But with Savannah here now,
it's feeling again

like this is a Hina-Uli vote.

And I'm a gambler,

but looking at those numbers--
it's scary.

PROBST:
MC, where do you sit on this?

-Do you agree with that?
-Well, it kind of
seems that way.

I know that, like,

me and Sophie started on Hina
from day one.

And then we had a tribe swap,

and then
we had another tribe swap.

And then I was
with Savannah and Rizo.

And so I feel
more in the middle,

and I've been trying
to make sure

that I'm on the same page

as the majority
of the people here.

But you also don't know
who is lying to your face.

And sometimes energy changes,
and you can tell

that someone's a little bit off,

and then you're like,
"Okay, I'm in danger."

PROBST:
Rizo,
Sophie talked about gambles.

You flaunted,
at the last Tribal Council,

-having an idol.
-RIZO: Yeah.

Said you might play it,
didn't play it.

Did anybody bring that up today?

Oddly, no, which,

for someone
that has an idol, is scary,

because when people
"blindside" people,

it's like, "Oh, my God, like,

"are they going to have
a revenge arc against me?

"Like, do they just want me
to feel comfortable

"and not play it,

and blindside it
with me in my pocket?"

We've seen that so many times
in the new era.

PROBST:
Jawan, Rizo just said,

"Maybe this is all
one big snow job..."

-Yeah.
-"...to get me out
with my idol."

JAWAN:
It could be.

And that would be super juicy.

As a fan, a giant blindside

with someone with an idol
in his pocket would be crazy.

But I don't think
that's gonna happen tonight.

PROBST:
Rizo, also something

somebody would say
if this was theater.

-Bro, no.
No, don't listen to him.
-[laughter]

Don't listen to Uncle Jeff.

SOPHIE:
Jeff, I will

just cut right to the chase.

Tonight, it's me or MC.

And I don't want to go home.

I want to make it to tomorrow.
I'm not ready to give up yet.

I want to live
to see another day.

Wow, MC.

-Sophie was just really clear.
-Yeah.

PROBST:
From her viewpoint, it is

her or you.

MC:
Well, I'd like to say that

if you save Sophie,

Sophie is going to go back
to the same people

that she voted with last Tribal.

And there's going
to be another day

that you're like, "Damn. I wish
we went ahead and did that,

because she keeps winning
individual immunity."

So right now
I'm really trying to just

trust in the people
that told me to trust in them,

and I want them to know
that they can trust me as well.

PROBST:
All right, Sophie,

what's your last pitch
before people go up to vote?

SOPHIE:
It's funny because part

of my pitch is
that I am a threat.

You will never have trouble
getting people

to vote my name down.

I have seen it
and I have heard it

basically
since I started this game.

So use me.
Use that to your advantage.

Let me play with you,

and we can work
on the next vote together.

I want to work with all of you,

and I think I've been truthful
with all of you.

I haven't lied to any of you.

This is not just me
Hail Mary-ing

and then flipping back
immediately tomorrow.

This is me putting my flag
in the sand

that I intend to move forward
with the four of you

after tonight's vote.

PROBST:
All right,

-it is...
-MC: Jeff.

JAWAN:
Hey, guys. Um...

-Let me talk
to y'all real quick.
-Okay.

PROBST:
Sophie, how are you feeling
right now, given

nobody's talking to you?

It doesn't feel great.

-Yeah.
-Okay.

SOPHIE:
It feels like I am

the last person
picked up from school.

But...

Apparently, my mom is here.

[laughter]

So I just want to...

Wow. What a battle.

SAVANNAH:
These people are literally
obsessed with me.

He's coming for you, bro.

Hard.

This is not your game,
this is mine.

This experience has been
absolutely everything.

Although I wish
I had more of a chance

to try
those individual challenges

just to see how I would do,

I know people saw me
as a physical threat

and that made them want
to vote me out.

I found out that I'm stronger

I just proved to myself
