Original subtitles

Previously on Survivor.

For the first time, 18 former castaways returned to the game as three tribes.

Shapira, Mogomogo, and Soboga.

And they soon found out just how crucial fire would be.

This ain't a little boy's game. It's for the big boys.

Because no fire meant no water. You can't drink it right out of the well.

There's potential brain parasites.

At Shiboga, Rudy approached Rupert with a plan. Me and you ought to think about

an alliance.

Me and I will stick together through the end of the game.

And at Shapira, Boston Rob and Amber made a connection.

What do you think? Do you want to make an alliance?

I don't know if I can take you seriously or not. I'm being 100 % serious.

Go!

In a very close immunity challenge, Shiboga fell behind, giving Shapira and

Mogomogo shared immunity.

Back at camp, Jenna campaigned to vote out the previous winners.

Tonight, I think it's important to take out the two winners first.

At tribal council, Ethan felt vulnerable.

But Tina was the first all -star voted out.

Tina, tribe has spoken.

With all the tribes denied fire for three days, the Castaways faced severe

dehydration. 17 are left.

Who will be voted out tonight?

Coming back from tribal council without fire was devastating.

With Tina gone, pouring rain, dying of thirst, them thinking

that we're going to bring fire home so we leave a pot of water, of well water,

contaminated water in the pot instead of an open, empty pot to catch rainwater.

It's a bad way to end day three.

I don't think I've ever gotten this far without food.

Last night was the most miserable night of my life.

I tried to sleep. I didn't get a single wink of sleep all night long. I sat

upright in the seltzer all night rocking back and forth trying to stay warm

because we were all soaking wet.

Vietnam is the same as this place. You get wet and your boots never dry.

You were in Vietnam?

Yeah. We were down in the Mekong Delta.

You ever scared?

Was I scared?

Yeah, the whole year.

Rudy is one of a kind.

He sleeps on the ground when the rest of us are squeezing together in our

shelter, and he was drinking well water before we could boil safely, even after

we've been told specifically that there are some crazy parasites in there that

will put you in a coma.

Rudy, are you still drinking that well water? Hell yes, he is.

Well, at this point, he's drank so much.

This is made like rot.

I'm still standing at noon. I don't drink it.

Water contamination will hit you pretty quick.

But once Rudy decides he wants to drink the well water, there's no telling him

no. He does what he wants.

There used to be a little bar next to where we lived in Muto.

You know, they'd serve ice, which was rare. And I asked them, where'd you get

the water? They said, the reservoir.

At any given time, you could see six bodies floating around that reservoir,

know?

Did you drink it with ice?

Yeah. I should worry about that.

Wow.

Dehydration may be our biggest concern at this point. We haven't been able to

achieve fire.

Thus, we have not been able to boil the water from our water source.

Our tongues have turned white.

It was just so hot. We were just dying of thirst.

Initially, the rain came, and you're thinking, okay, I've got to keep dry.

But after a few minutes of that, the light bulb went on, and all of us

that fresh water had fallen from the sky.

Never thought I'd be so happy with this tropical rain.

We were like animals gone wild. I mean, we had to have water.

That water was so sweet.

I think if it keeps going like this for a few more minutes, I'll drink myself.

Hopefully it'll rain for quite a while. It's nice and warm.

It's just wet, wet, wet, wet, wet.

My take on Richard's choice to be a nudist out here, honestly, it doesn't

me in the least. Every time he drops trowel and comes, just... stumbling back

into camp without a stitch of clothing on. It's hilarious.

Nice out there.

Not cold. My thing is sitting under there trying to avoid drop to get cold.

The bad part is, the rest of us are becoming comfortable with it. That's

even spooky.

We got an overweight, gay, naked man walking around, and no one seems to let

bother him. I don't know.

Unfortunately, I think he wants us all to be naked and natural walking around.

That... I don't see happening.

We got some water.

We got some water.

We got some water.

You would have thought that maybe we were drinking champagne, but it was just

getting water from the rain.

Nobody knows the words, but it's all good today.

Don't open.

Very valuable. Keep going.

We see a big crate. There's three padlocks on the crate.

So we have no idea what's inside.

Let's think we're playing synthetic bees, yeah?

I don't know. It feels like something substantial, whatever it is.

Maybe it's an animal.

And it's always interesting when they give you boxes.

You know, you go through all the options of what you want to be in there.

Food. Matches or something.

Anything at this point that you get to open is fun because it's like a gift.

They brought this so we could stare at it and wonder what's in it for the next

two hours.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Hold on, I just had an idea.

You guys want to open it? When we first got that box, my first inclination was,

forget about the note, let's stop it over here. Just smash it open.

No. I don't want to ruin our chances. You win the challenge.

Then all of a sudden, everybody else is here. Oh, no, we don't want to do that.

We might upset pretty boy probes or something.

Come on in, guys.

Moga moga. Shapira getting the first look at the new Saboga tribe.

Tina voted out. First tribal council.

Okay, let's get to today's reward challenge.

We're building a staircase to the stars.

Here's how it works. There are five logs tethered out in the ocean. On my go,

five members of each tribe will swim out and get the furthest log.

Once there, you'll unclip the log, bring it back.

Put it in the staircase as the first leg. Then four tribe members. Then

Then two. Until we get to the last log, one tribe member will retrieve the final

log, place it in the staircase. First tribe to get all five pieces and get to

the top of the platform wins reward.

This is going to be grueling, especially for your anchors because they're

swimming every leg.

Now you want to know what you're playing for.

Playing.

Blanket. Keep you warm at night.

Nice. Come in handy.

Shapira, Moga Moga, because you have one extra member, you're sitting somebody

out, keeping in mind you cannot sit out the same person in back -to -back

challenges. Shapira, who's sitting out? Big Tom. Big Tom.

Moga Moga, who's sitting out? Jenna.

Jenna. Everybody else, wait for my go.

Four rewards.

Survivors ready.

Go. Go, guys.

Women out to the furthest log first.

I'm stuck in sea water. Let's go.

Here, first at their log.

Unclipped, heading back.

Toboga heading back.

Mogamoga heading back. We're dead even.

Stay with that log, guys. Stay with your log.

Stay with the log. It's not us. Go. We're all right. Let's go.

Let's go.

Got to be together.

Come on, Ruth.

We need you, buddy.

Come on, Marie.

Come on. Diana working with Rudy.

Come on, dude. You just have to get to the beach.

Moga moga together.

Prepare us together.

Good job, guys.

Hang in there, Rudy. You're there.

Place it once you have it in. All three tribes are neck and neck.

Diana sitting out for moga moga. Rudy taking a sit.

Alicia taking a sit.

Four tribe members now swimming out for the fourth log. Let's go. Keep moving.

You can rest tonight.

Saboga has their second log.

Mogamoga has their second log.

Let's go, guys. We're doing great.

Shapira unhooked and heading back.

Let's go, guys. Let's go.

Mogamoga first out of the water.

Mogamoga right behind them.

Saboga with their second step in the ladder.

Mogamoga heading back out. Here comes Shapira.

Let's go, guys. Jenna's sitting out. Kathy's sitting out. Rob, Amber, Sue,

back. Swimming really taking its toll.

They're flying downhill.

Turtle wins the race.

The Boga has their third log, heading back.

Mogamoga has their third log, heading back.

Sue, Rob, and Amber still struggling.

Once again, Saboga first out of the water.

Can't put it in until everybody's there.

Go, Mogomogo, you're still in this.

Rupert and Ethan heading back out.

Max and Richard heading back out for Mogomogo. While Shapira comes in with

third log.

Austin, Rob, and Sue heading back out. Can they close the gap?

Savoga with a big lead.

Come on, you guys!

Rupert looking strong as ever. Ethan right there with him. Come on, let's go!

Savoga again first out of the water. Mogo Mogo on their tail.

Catch it up!

Go, Mogo Mogo, you're still in this.

Ethan taking the last leg for Savoga.

Hatch has a lot of ground to make up on Ethan. Can he do it?

Mariano taking the last leg for Shapira. You're catching up. Let's go.

This is everything, Ethan. Come on.

Come on, Ethan. Come on. Ethan, we love you. A lot of swimming with no food and

no water in your belly.

Fox and Rob having a tough time.

Go, you, Ethan.

Here, here, here. Ethan close to winning it for Saboga. Hatch, still a lot of

ground to make up. Ethan with the final log for Saboga. Got to get to the top.

Go, Ethan, go.

Saboga wins rewards!

Come in here, Rudy.

All right, Saboga, congratulations and your reward.

Blanket. Before you take the blanket, I want to make a proposition to you. Each

tribe today received a lockbox.

I'm going to tell you what's in the lockbox. Right.

The only problem is that lockbox and the rice in it does you no good because you

need three keys to get it open. And even if you had it open without fire, you

can't cook the rice.

So here's the offer. You can trade the blankets for this. The first clue to

finding the first key to get in your lockbox. Flint, you'll have a constant

source of fire and a pot to cook that rice in.

There's a rub.

If you take the pot with the clue and the map, and

the flint instead of the blanket mogo mogo gets it as well as shapira

here we

go

believe they ousted tina holy oh my god that is that is i would have put a lot

of money that rudy was gone holy crap that thing kind of blew me out of the

water tina first one out big targets on the winners except me no big target on

me hey we'll see i mean yeah i'm surprised but at the same time it's cool

because it sets the tone for the whole game

We all know what business is tough.

That was tough.

That was probably the toughest challenge I've ever experienced in any survival.

When we showed up to the challenge and I saw Tina was voted out of the game,

that made me very excited because...

i think that she's big phony and if it means that the winners are going next

that's all right by me but last time i checked i didn't have a million dollars

yet you want to get some fire going let's try to get the fire let's go

tommy first try yeah there's a coating

on the flint you got to get all the coating off

I came back here and I knew exactly how to build a fire and get it started.

But, of course, Boston, Rob, and Big Tom, these guys are so macho. They're

men. They're the men of the tribe.

I'm going to get a spark already.

Can we build a nest right on it and light it from here as opposed to that

little? Well, really, that's great.

Can I try it? Yeah, try it.

Right now, old farm boys just got to keep his mouth shut. It's too early in

game to be both in. I think we got four or five bosses and maybe one Indian.

Make sure it's fluffy. Scrape a little bit of the magnesium on the hair.

Scrape a little magnesium on it.

Awesome. That's good. That's it. That's all you have to do.

Alicia's just talking a little bit too much. Don't move away from the fire. She

walks around giving orders constantly.

It's her nature. She's got a big mouth. She needs to learn to shut it.

You got it.

There you go. You got it. That's it. That's all we needed.

Beautiful. Yee -haw.

We got it. We got it going on. There you go.

There'll be no more rubbing them sticks together.

Oh, my God.

That was great.

oh my god in the first two minutes oh my god i'm getting excited

they're gonna be very hard

this is showing me that i'm not you know i thought i was the outdoors man

and i am with a lighter i don't know

You're much stronger than I am. You don't think I'm the biggest after my

today? You don't think I'm the biggest target out there right now?

Yeah.

I felt really bad for Ethan because he knows he's on the chopping block.

And then it was even worse at the reward challenge when he did so well. And I

went to congratulate him like I did everyone else. And I was like, great

And he's like, yeah, because he knows it's all for naught.

We don't know when we're going to lose a meeting.

We might not lose.

It might be nine days. Who knows?

just give it a couple days rest okay i already had a talk with jenna lewis she

says well you know maybe we'll keep you around a little longer you know that's

what you wanted thanks jenna you know thanks for granting me that one wish

like she's like so cocky calling the shots and stuff and it just bugs me

Don't go too hard. We're just going to blow it out.

There's the fire. There's the fire going.

Here, some more sticks.

There you are. Here you go.

Some more, some more.

More sticks.

I'll blow up from this side. We got plenty of sticks.

Woo!

Damn it. I'm all right.

Stupid me. He puts my face two inches in the butt.

Swap! It singed all of the hair off the front of my head.

So we have fire.

It's like the power of the God.

We got fire!

We

made

a huge effort to try to make fire.

I don't know what the deal is. I don't know if at this point it's a function of

our materials or our level of energy, that there are too many conditions that

are working against us and the humidity is so high.

Let me blow from the bottom.

It's going to pour in a second.

Should we maybe consider not making fire until the storm passes? No.

Why not keep trying?

I don't want to waste material on our platform.

Can we have the opportunity to make fire?

Why not?

It's so cold.

I hate the fact we don't have fire.

Oh, we should have done the fire right when we got back. I know.

We're freezing because our lame boys didn't make the fire.

Lex now regrets that we didn't get on it.

So I'm just trying to warm up because we're all soaking wet.

I'm having a great time.

Any more fuel sticks?

We finally got fire.

And, I mean, fire is everything. It's food. It's water.

You know, it gives you a purpose.

Oh, my God, we've got fire.

I think

it's that way.

We decided to go look for the key for one of the three locks on the treasure

chest of what I guess now we found out is right.

What?

No, I found it.

Put it back. I wanted to see where it is.

Cool fox.

Here we go.

Let's see, let's see, let's see.

Found it, no problem. It was deep within the cave.

Anybody looking would think of today as huge, given that we got water and fire

and a key to the trunk.

That's all extraneous crap to me. That's not Survivor.

The game's all the interpersonal stuff.

Yeah! You know, roar! We got it! Whoa!

You know, that's outside the game. That just isn't in me.

He's kind of stumbling and just walking over those rocks.

But he's walking. He's getting around. He's, you know, a full man.

My foot hurts when I walk.

You know, it sort of makes me limp a little.

I don't know what's wrong.

Probably in a week it'll be back to normal.

How's it doing today? Any better?

No.

Why don't you sit down and take it easy?

I wanted to see if I could run. I can't.

Rudy's not doing okay.

His feet, he's got a big blister, but also he did something to the bone inside

that's been really hurting, and he tells me he can't walk, he can't run.

I sure hope it's not a running challenge today, because we'll be dead alive.

First things first.

Thank you, Amber.

And shared immunity for two tribes. Back up for grabs.

Ready for today's challenge?

Each tribe will start out on a floating platform.

On my go, all five tribe members will dive out, get to the bottom of the ocean

floor, where you will find a sunken boat loaded with 14 very heavy crates.

Untying a series of slip knots, you'll release the crates. Then you have to get

the crates out of your boat.

Once all 14 crates are out, the boat will float to the top.

You'll drag it back to your platform, flip it over, and start bailing out the

water. Get your paddles. It is a race back to shore. First two tribes to cross

the finish line with all members and their boat wins immunity.

Shapira, mogo, mogo. Because you have extra members, you're sitting somebody

out. Or Shapira, who's sitting out this one?

Alicia, mogo, mogo. All right, Sheehan, everybody else swim out.

Here we go guys! For immunity!

Bombers ready!

Go!

Everybody got to get a hand on the pontoon!

Start diving!

Make your time!

2 ,000 pounds of weight in that boat!

back for Savoga to the platform.

Savoga, the first tribe with their boat up, dragging their boat back to the

platform.

At the platform.

Shapira with their boat up. Mogo Mogo has their boat up.

Shapira catching up.

The Mogo already bailing.

Push it up, push it up.

It's bailed, it's bailed.

Shiboga bailing water. Shapira starting to flip their boat.

Mogomogo almost back to the platform.

Shiboga still bailing water. Shapira trying to flip their boat.

Shapira, Mogomogo trying to get their boat flipped.

Shapira flipping their boat.

Shapira's boat is empty.

Mogomogo working on flipping that boat.

Caboga still bailing water.

Mogomogos flip their boat.

Shapira takes the lead.

Mogomogos trying to bail water.

Caboga trying to bail water.

Saboga paddling while they bail. A risky strategy.

Saboga was the first drive back to the platform.

They are still at the platform.

Saboga forgets to paddle. Another mistake.

Hatch takes a dump.

You'll have a shot. First two tribes win immunity.

Congratulations.

Immunity. Once again, safe from Tribal Council, three more days out in Panama.

Mogo Mogo, who wants it?

Safe from Tribal Council, three more days out in Panama.

What's to say, Saboga?

Great effort, another tough challenge, another visit to Tribal Council, another

tribe member going home.

I'll see you there.

You guys can head back to camp.

We played stronger. We didn't play smarter.

So, Francis, I wanted to get going. I know. Then once you and Jerry climbed

it sunk again, and we had to lift it back up.

One stupid mistake.

Today's immunity challenge was a huge letdown, and each one of us is blaming

ourselves for some part of what happened.

I like to smack myself in the head.

Okay. Hey, Jerry.

We're holding on to the boat. I know.

And I said get on the boat.

Ethan gets way too excited at challenges.

This time, even though he helped so much in the beginning, he heard us at the

end of the challenge and he knew it.

Are you going to see if you can catch fish?

Well, tonight we've got to go to tribal council. And based on last tribal

council, you know, I'm going to go tonight.

And it's scary, you know. I'm in limbo. I'm hanging on by a thread right now.

I've got to make sure people want me here, so why not try to start

However, if they or we expect to win any more challenges, you know, Rudy has to

go home.

Rudy is most definitely a hero.

More so than any other person here.

He deserves to be here.

75 years old and doing psychic?

It's killing me to be here.

Rudy came to me on the first day saying, I need a buddy.

I know what he's saying. I adore him.

But we're losing God.

Even though right now discussion is about voting off Rudy because he's our

weakest link.

He's tough as nails.

He never once complained about anything out here. Not once.

I wouldn't write anybody's name down. I'd write my own name down. Do you want

vote for Ethan?

I'm not writing Rudy's name down.

I know that. I'm not writing Rudy's name down.

The bounce is off.

The bounce is off of him.

Yeah, they're like that big.

Ethan was out there by the rocks trying his new spear, and he came up empty

-handed. I think Ethan was trying to make himself more of an asset to the

and if he could get fish as well as Rupert, it would be harder to put him

And then Rupert walked out into the water, and it's amazing.

We got our first one.

We haven't fished tonight.

Damn straight. Oh, my God.

He's little, but he's got some meat.

Wow.

You know, Rupert goes out. Five minutes later, he comes back with a fish.

Great. Come here. Dig in there.

Wow, that's heavy.

That ain't a bad fish, you know. No, Trigger, he's a great fish.

You know, I'm struggling out here. I'm trying to find my niche, and it's not

working.

So, Rupert, how has fire improved life at camp?

Last time we were here, we were sad.

We were whipped.

Three days with no food and water.

Day four came. We won the challenge. We gave everybody fire. We were the

victors.

It was a great day.

Let's talk about today's challenge.

From where I was watching.

I was trying to figure out who was going to come in second because Saboga

clearly had it won.

And then, Ethan, what happened?

Well, we made a silly mistake.

Instead of pulling the boat up entirely out of the water and dumping it, we

tried to bail it while it was still full.

Jerry, did today's loss set you guys back in terms of now you're going to be

down to four after tonight?

Absolutely. It's our second time in a row here, and that always sucks. It just

sucks coming here, period.

How about you, Rudy?

What is it about this game that continues to appeal to you?

You've survived situations much worse than this.

I really don't know why I'm here again.

I'm three years slower, that's for sure.

But I like it, you know, putting up with the people is the survival part, not

putting up with the elements.

How are you hanging in there physically?

Good. I got a sore ankle, but I think it's going away.

Rupert, new guy on the block, but obviously you could be odd man out.

Oh, yes. I'm always going to feel that odd man out.

My one saving grace right now, I caught a fish. I caught a fish.

I poked it with a stick. I caught a fish.

Rupert starts catching fish. He becomes much more valuable, Ethan.

Yeah. Did you have any reaction when Rupert came in with the fish?

I was psyched that I was going to eat.

I mean.

Yeah, I didn't catch a fish first, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to catch

ten tomorrow.

Ethan, it appeared last time that Tina was voted out, and for no other reason

than she's won this game before, and nobody wanted her to win again.

The only other guy on this block tonight that's won this game is you. So how are

you feeling?

I feel nervous.

Tribal Council's a scary place.

My insides are upside down, flipping around, just like that fish we caught

today. I have a target on my back, and it's out there in the open.

So how do you vote tonight?

Janet, is there a chance that it's still a money issue?

Yeah, there's still a chance. People have voted out of this game all the time

for being too strong, too alpha male, too much of a provider.

What's the difference?

Those people don't deserve to go. They're providing for their child so

see them as competition.

The winners have already won.

That's a strong competition.

So it's just like any other way to vote, if you see it that way.

Okay, it's time to vote. Jerry, you're up.

Rudy, it's an honor to be on your team. This is purely strategical.

and I made a pact and I am not voting for Rudy.

I've got to vote for Rudy.

I'll go tally the votes.

Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be

asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

I read the votes.

First vote.

Rudy.

Ethan. One vote Ethan, one vote Rudy.

Ethan. Two votes Ethan, one vote Rudy.

Rudy.

Two votes Rudy.

Two votes Ethan.

I'll read the last vote.

Second person voted out of the Saboga tribe.

Rudy, you can bring me a torch.

Rudy, the tribe has spoken.

Time for you to go.

Well, Tribal Council is an interesting place.

Always emotional.

Tonight was no exception.

How could you not like Rudy?

75 -year -old, former Navy SEAL, hanging with kids a third of his age.

A hero in anybody's book. I know you didn't want to vote him out, and yet,

somebody had to go.

Which is exactly what makes Survivor what it is.

Complicated.

Grab your torches. Head on back to camp.

Good night.

Good

night.

Perfect. Just what I wanted. While Richard faces off with a shark. Screw

not leaving the thing there. I'm going home with food.

I talked to these people about two hours ago,

and everything was all set up to vote Ethan off.

And I can see Ethan voting against me, but I can't see the other two people

voting against me. And if I was them, I'd stay clear of me.

I got a lot of friends.

That's about all I got to say.
