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

Silas took sides with his own generation.

The straddle on the fence is over. I am no longer with the older people, and I

don't care if they know that.

They're immature.

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

their losing streak, winning their first reward challenge.

Then they bared all to claim immunity.

Sending Samburu to their first tribal council, where the young -old split

a deadlocked tie between Lindsay and Carl. With no previous votes between

to break the tie, a sudden death competition sent Carl packing.

True.

The tribe has spoken.

And Lindsay returned to camp with four votes.

Thirteen are left.

Tonight, one more will go.

All right, make that fire big.

Big fire.

Porches by the flag? Yeah.

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

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

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

Anything could have happened. It was literally a crapshoot.

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

more or less took over the tribe.

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

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

either go as a group or you guys can go.

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

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

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

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

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

at those three people for voting for me.

Seriously pumped to get an award tomorrow.

Seriously pumped.

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

Don't underestimate me, people.

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

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

off the deep end.

Trust me.

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

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

and they really meant the four of them.

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

moment.

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

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

Tomorrow is a new day.

It can be.

It's got to be.

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

Now it's a new day.

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

Damn you, Carl, for leaving me with a bunch of misfits to go camping with.

going to be pretty miserable the next couple of days.

How's it looking?

We don't have as much as we thought we had. That was very generous in the

beginning.

Very good.

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

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

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

goes down.

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

Well, grits.

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

more of something that rhymes with grits.

But basically, no grits.

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

You get that?

I can get that.

You sure you get that?

Hell yeah, it's out here watching.

The big country bear saw the palm tree.

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

Tommy found was about 50 feet in the air.

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

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

Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.

Yo big country ass is climbing a tree in the middle of Africa. You realize that,

don't you?

You come down.

Come down. You know that little safety harnesses?

I thought he was nuts.

Duh!

He's still in there.

So finally he got down, and we just started throwing rocks at it, trying to

something to happen.

All right, brother, rock and roll here.

Watch your head.

Down, Tommy!

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

And then after that, we've hammered ourselves to death.

Trying to get the daggone thing open.

You're getting a nice slice there.

Throwing for over 30 minutes, getting two.

Then taking 20 minutes to open one.

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

In my opinion, it ain't worth it.

I mean, it's not as good as coconut. It's got a bad appetite.

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

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

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

Let's see.

We have mail.

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

Oh, yeah, that was great.

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

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

Hey, guys.

Hate to wake you up.

We got mail, buddy.

And we got 30 videos.

Oh, my God.

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

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

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

Who would like to read? You read it.

No, no, no.

Why don't one of you read it?

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

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

you'll be celebrating as your bellies get

wider.

It's a beautiful day.

Make it happen, dude.

It's a food reward.

Anybody hungry?

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

bearings. All right, guys, it's a reward, baby. This is the big one.

Frank, come here. Linda, you guys come here for a second.

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

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

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

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

you know, and we're so still.

Still. Still. Still.

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

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

and just whatever.

Maybe it's genuine. It seems.

So cheesy to me. Let's get fired up here and win this. Can I make one

suggestion? Please, please do.

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

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

know. And that made it go.

You have to understand this, though, too, Linda. What if that was you on the

cutting board? There's no way I would have come back and said to the three

people, hey, team, team, come here. And there's no way I would have said this.

But that girl, revenge, revenge.

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

know. It's over.

We're coming together now. It's over. Thank you!

So I'm sorry that it happened.

Yeah, we gotta go.

I've been dying to be on this team.

Let's be on the team.

Linda, this morning really came unglued.

She has two very, very different sides. Like the sweet, little New England mom.

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

I'm ready to be on the team.

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

Give me a hug.

Why can't you hug me?

Come on, Frank.

Can we demonstrate a hug?

This is a hug, sweetie.

Come on.

Did your mama ever hug you?

There you go.

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

okay, great. Let it go.

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

I don't know, I had a knife in my hand or she was going to, it was awfully

strange. Why don't you give me a real hug?

It was hard.

It's hard.

Okay, you're not ready to. I understand. I respect that.

I totally respect that. Well, you know what anger is? Anger is a cover. for

sadness whenever we're angry well I'm good at it and I just get there well

funny I think it's you know no matter if it went the other way don't don't it's

all right just trying just trying but I respect your faith just everything sort

of hit me this morning and I just started to cry because I felt I felt

out of my little group even though they're totally supportive of me I felt

the older group picked me and how can I face them again and I just felt sad

Good morning, guys.

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

It was bland to begin with.

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

challenge is a food reward.

Behind us, on a rope web, 12 items.

That will dramatically improve your meals. Things like olive oil, sun -dried

tomatoes.

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

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

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

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

reward. Losers get squat.

Make sense?

Wait for my go.

Here we go, guys.

Survivors ready?

Go! Go, B!

Go, B!

A lot of stuff in there.

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

immunity. All right. See you guys.

We lost the challenge.

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

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

good. And it's hard.

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

Sorry. Great job.

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

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

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

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

we're like, you suck.

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

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

actual winning.

Let's just drink a lot.

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

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

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

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

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

awful.

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

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

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

It was a good thing.

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

We've got golden chicken blend.

Nice. What's it put in the mush?

Olive oil.

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

We won soup mix, you know, rice.

We want, like, jelly to put on stuff. I mean, it's flavor for the food that we

have. And that's key.

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

water. I would give it all up for water. We'd do a water run right now.

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

gores, all the water gores.

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

water. We have to boil the water.

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

of the water people getting the water going.

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

We were

in

a real water crunch. I mean, we were all dehydrated

from the challenge, severely.

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

get...

Completely gone. Well, guys, last leg. We're almost there.

Gone.

And we came home, lost another pot completely.

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

drinking water. We have to boil it.

Is it leaking right now?

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

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

and more.

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

Things began to slack off, you know. The water rations went down. My plan of

attack was, you know, to let the comfort level drop completely low, and they

would, I know they would break down. And you could see that things were falling

apart. Oh, my gosh.

We now have completely shattered all of our pots.

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

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

make do, we'll make do.

Still like, God, this tribe, can we get our act together?

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

You know, we crack pots, we whine, we complain, we have problems, people are

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

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

Sometimes you do get comfortable, a little bit comfortable here. And, you

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

call.

Tom had his eyes up. Thank God.

We've all...

We've done our homework, and we all know that that is the one animal that we

need to be most careful of.

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

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

made a lot of noise.

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

All right, guys, let's go.

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

a little bit left?

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

be real.

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

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

thing is very real.

Danger is here.

Bad neighbor.

Good morning, Kent Samburu.

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

morning. Just a little watering hole I conditioned.

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

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

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

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

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

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

It's nice and cool, all right?

All right. Come on, guys.

Frank, we just hit the snooze button.

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

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

Come on, it's getting hot already.

Who agreed on this?

Shut up. Shut up.

I know, I know.

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

Living like nomads means moving around.

Do well at this challenge. You may stick around.

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

your hike to council begins.

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

March with it, too. It isn't just like pushing her off.

All

right,

first thing I need to do, take back the immunity idol.

Give it up, Clarence.

Immunity back at stake again today for today's immunity challenge.

We're going to look to our African hosts for a little inspiration.

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

camp. That's what you guys are going to do today. Each tribe has a camp with a

hut, an animal pen, flagpole, and various camp supplies.

First tribe to relocate their camp up to your new home 200 yards up the hill and

recreate it exactly as it is here wins immunity.

Here are the rules.

Two members from each tribe will be your architects.

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

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

camp. They will be up at the new location.

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

circle. The other members will be responsible for actually physically

the camp.

Last rule.

The flagpole is the last thing you put in.

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

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

of the hill.

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

Brandon and Linda will be your architect.

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

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

Immunity at stake. Survivors ready?

Go!

I don't know where I'm going, so lead me to victory, guys.

circle before you put that flag in, Tom.

Ron!

Ron keeps immunity.

See you guys tomorrow night at Tribal Council.

This morning, Frank's birthday, got us, gave him a birthday hug, and he was

whittling on his torch, and he was carving his children and his wife's

I thought that was just beautiful.

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

Jocelyn and Sage, to name the beyond that.

For not only now the strength, but even when I leave, you know, I want it to be

carried with me. They were with me all the time.

So that was important to me to do that.

I'll tell you one thing.

We could have used Carl's yesterday.

We might have won.

Oh, yeah.

It's a tactic today. We're wondering about that.

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

When you get there, fly low.

You can get there. When I get there, I think I'm going to go behind Adam's

lines. Are you?

That's hysterical.

What a change. What a difference.

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

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

I'm so happy.

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

it, even personally for me.

We had won immunity and the other team was going to the tribal council so we

the whole day to ourselves no chores so we decided to explore a little bit

when our tribe climbed up that mountain you

know that i got that feeling back about why what was really important and why i

was there everyone's happy and the

tribe's happy and we're all having fun and it was just So pleasant. It was like

we're here, like we're in Africa.

It's obviously D -Day.

We go to tribal council this evening.

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

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

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

neutrally and casually.

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

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

So who's going tonight since we're so open?

Yay, I like that.

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

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

It doesn't matter.

Hold up, because I agree with Brandon.

I don't want the day to be bad.

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

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

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

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

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

Except for Lindsay. Except for Lindsay.

This is the key.

Right. This is the key. I never thought I'd say, vote for me three times

tonight. Come on.

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

you know, once the merger happens.

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

us? Nothing.

Please stick with us on this.

And just think about it and vote for Lindsay. I'll be honest. I care. But,

if I'm the person who's going this evening.

I'm not going to do that.

Because there's totally been nothing for me.

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

to follow.

You know, us.

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

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

the ship?

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

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

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

I don't trust him at all.

There's something up there.

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

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

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

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

in it for me?

So why in the world would you know? There's a bitter taste in the mouth

there. I really don't know which way they're going, but...

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

decide to take each one of us off.

Let's drop this.

Let's drop this.

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

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

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

going to get there.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Lindsey to get a vote against you.

And so that was hard, Jeff.

But after that, the second day, much better.

We came together as a unit.

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

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

the tribe? Were you guys concerned?

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

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

There are two tribes within one still.

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

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

you need numbers.

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

about this whole entire game?

Yeah, I can tell you one sure thing.

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

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

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

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

be the exact same thing but reversed.

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

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

you know, to happen.

So you have a game plan.

Absolutely. You're sticking to it.

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

I'm a walking mistake.

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

Oh, no, it's Brandon.

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

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

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

going to go next. And, you know, you lose sight of reality because it's not

reality. It's just a game, and we're trying to keep that in perspective, and

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

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

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

Always. I'm always with them.

These are my friends.

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

that. Yeah, definitely.

It's time to vote.

Lindsay, you're first.

your time to go.

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

It's only a game. Play nicely.

I'll go tally the votes.

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

leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the votes.

First vote.

Silas.

Silas.

Silas. Three votes, Silas.

Linda.

Linda.

Linda. Three votes, Silas. Three votes, Linda.

Final vote.

Linda. You need to bring me a torch.

Play

nicely.

Linda.

Travis spoke.

It's time for me to go.

Bye, guys.

Bye.

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

Lindsay, you now have four votes against you.

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

councils. It could most definitely come into play in future votes.

We know very well. I'll leave you with this final thought.

Silas, you said it best. This game changes minute by minute.

It certainly does.

You guys can head back to camp. I'll see you tomorrow.

Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.

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

first.

Every friendship, every alliance will be shattered.

Oh, my God.

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

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

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

People's Alliance, was very significant.

Honor is very important to us. Integrity is very important to us. To me, it's

not whether you win or lose.

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

I've learned. It's just been great.

Namaste.
