Original subtitles

Previously on Survivor.

People that don't play this game, even half as bold as me, pisses me off.

Coach thought he was in the driver's seat.

But Debbie turned on her old ally.

It is not good for me to be attached to Coach. People are tired of him. Okay.

So he's going to think we're going to knock Tosh. I think we need to go ahead

and get Coach out. But it has to be every single one of us writing it down.

the Jalapal 3 and Aaron decided Debbie was too dangerous to keep around.

Jesus. Yeah,

she goes.

Coach was clueless as he watched his longtime ally go home.

Debbie, the tribe has spoken.

Can Coach regain control?

Five are left.

Who will be voted out tonight?

I'm in shock.

Tonight at Tribal, I thought I was the one going home when I saw my name.

And then it was Debbie, Debbie, Debbie.

Doug? Yes, sir. The number one ally I was doing for you tonight.

You know who wrote your name down, right?

What?

You know I'm not.

I say you wrote your name down.

I think I can't grasp that.

I'm like the lamb led to the slaughterhouse around here. That's what

like.

Oh, my goodness.

But we thought if we told you about it beforehand, you wouldn't believe us.

I was like, wow, JT.

Aaron and Taj and Steven mounted a counterattack against Debbie to save me.

it would have been very easy to vote me out. You know, I know I'm a dangerous

player in this game. And so I'm just shocked.

Thanks for protecting me. I mean, it was... Holy cow.

So what's the lesson in this? I think that the game is still being played with

truth.

I think the game is still being played with honesty.

I think this is the first time in this game that I'm almost speechless.

Almost.

Yeah, sorry to lay that one on you before bed.

Yeah.

Now I just want to talk to JT and Steven and just ask them, when am I going?

Just tell me when I'm going, because obviously Coach Wade's no longer in

of this game, and I don't know what's going to happen next.

I can't, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Yeah, oh my goodness.

I just

want

to be in agreement with you guys on what you want to do.

Man, my lungs feel like they don't like that.

I feel like I scarred my lungs yesterday. We were sitting around the

just breathing in that smoke, and my lungs feel like I smoked 20 cigars in a

yesterday and inhaled all of them.

But, I mean, like for me, it's whatever you guys want.

I was talking to the guys about exile, and I don't want to go to exile. Nobody

wants to go to exile at this point. I just hope my asthma doesn't play up.

That's a horrible excuse.

You know, that's my only fear.

I'm just making it out here. This asthma is kicking my ass. My back is killing

me every day. So, you know, how do I handle that adversity?

So what do you think, Coach?

You know what I think is the noble thing is that we send JT or myself, but the

cold, calculating competitor in me

wants to send Todd or Aaron.

It's really up to you guys what you think. I just want to all be on the same

page.

Oh, God. I mean, JT and I are eager to send Coach to exile.

He's been so skittish about it. He's been selling out everyone, trying to get

them to go to exile before him. I mean, you know, Coach has mentioned ailments,

you know, a back problem, asthma, but it never seemed to really affect his

performance. So I'm not entirely sure Coach can build a fire and cook the food

by himself.

I don't know.

I think he's scared.

Coach,

he's just really scared to go to exile.

Such an adventurous, soulless coach.

Shouldn't really be scared to go to exile.

So, you know, I'm ready to test him. And also, we're planning on sending Coach

home to the next tribal council. So it would be nice for him to come very weak

to the next community challenge.

He's a lost man right now.

Come on in, guys.

What's up, Final Five?

Hi. How you doing, Zay?

You guys ready to get to today's challenge? Yeah.

For today's challenge, you will race through a maze.

You must then build a pole long enough to retrieve a sandbag.

You'll swing the sandbag in an attempt to knock over three targets, raising a

flag.

First person to raise their flag wins.

One more element to this challenge.

You will run the entire challenge with your feet shackled together.

Want to know what it's planned for? Yeah.

The winner of this challenge will be taken on an overnight reward.

You will leave camp. You will be taken to the governor's retreat where you will

enjoy a bed, a shower, a feast.

In addition, the winner will send one person to Exile Island. Worth playing

Yeah. I know it is. We'll drop our spots. We'll get started.

Here we go for a reward.

Survivors ready?

Go!

JT in the lead.

Is he right? Everybody following JT except Taj. She's going her own way.

Somebody's going to be right. Somebody's going to be wrong.

Steven hits a dead end.

Taj hits a dead end.

JT's on the right course.

Coach right behind.

Coach taking the smart strategy. He's just going to follow JT.

Let him lead.

Aaron going to follow Coach and JT.

Follow the leader.

JT and Coach through the second section of the maze.

Aaron right in it.

Taj and Steven falling out of it.

JT having no trouble at all with this maze.

Coach having no trouble following him.

JT and Coach entering the final section of the maze.

JT is through the maze.

Coach right behind. Now you've got to start working on that pole.

Guys, help me out here. Aaron, Steven, Taj now very far behind.

Right now this challenge is between JT and Coach.

Come on, JT.

Coach would love to win a reward.

Damn right about that.

Back, back, back, back, back.

JT already working on his pole.

Coach still untying his pieces.

Tosh through the maze.

Aaron through the maze. Stephen through the maze.

Everybody's now working on their pole.

JT has a nice pole coming along.

Coach picking up the pace.

JT with a bit of a lead.

JT now has four pieces of pole together.

Once you think your pole is long enough, reach for that sandbag.

JT has his pole together and has reached for his bag.

Coach needs to pick it up.

JT knocked over his first target.

Good job.

There are a total of three targets you have to hit.

JT's knocked over his second target. One target left for a big reward.

Coach now in on it.

Will his pole reach?

JT wins rewards.

JT, come on over.

First order of business.

Send one person to Exile Island.

They will not go on the reward. They will not go back to camp.

They will have another hot, probably wet, stay away from all of the politics

what is going on in these last few days.

Exile is the one place you do not want to be on day 34.

The volunteers.

Let's be noble, coach.

Okay. Let's do this. Yep. Me and you going through the head and being, man.

bet. Thank you, Richard.

Coach, how do you feel about going to exile?

I'm good. I'm going to take the monastic approach. I'm not going to build a

fire. I'm not going to eat.

I'm just going to meditate.

He's going to take the martyr approach.

So when he comes back, he can not have eaten, not have slept, not have had any

water to do it, minimizing experiences of some, I feel like, and have an excuse

when he doesn't win immunity when he gets back.

That's pretty harsh.

That's kind of how I feel. Sorry. Is there something to what Aaron said about

maybe trying to...

Put yourself in a position so that you've had the worst experience at

I want it to be tough on me.

That's for sure. I'm not going to minimize everybody's experience. In

disappointed that Erin would say that. You know, since the beginning of the

game, she wanted to try to cut me down a little bit. And a lot of times when

people do that, it's to vault themselves over. I think maybe she wants to leave

here with the toughest exile experience. And I don't want to take that away from

her. As far as coming back and winning immunity, my body is about this close

right now from...

Total disaster.

I've got discs on the right side that have ruptured. I feel my left one is

ready to flip.

My asthma is choking me up so bad I can't breathe. There's no excuse about

win immunity or if I don't win immunity.

I make no excuses.

So, you know, you can throw stones at me. You can.

Everybody else can. And I go like this.

Give me your best shot. Hit me with your best shot, Pat Benatar.

Doesn't matter to me.

All right, Coach. Grab your personal items.

Head out.

Yep. Coach, we'll return in time for the next community challenge.

I bid you guys adieu. Thank you, Coach.

All right, JT, let's get to the reward. You're going to take one person with

you, meaning you're going to leave two people behind.

Maybe the best reward so far.

Who are you taking with?

I got to take the only person that took me, I guess, Stephen.

Thank you, Jess. Y 'all don't hate me.

We'll be fine.

Erin, Taj?

Got nothing for you.

Grab your stuff, head back to the field.

Hello, guys.

Enjoy. It looked like he was going to go without a fight, but Aaron had to try

to rub it in his face. I mean, he's just shooting himself in the foot.

People are so dumb in this game. I mean, they talk way too much.

So it's going to hurt her, not me.

Wyatt. I love it.

And it's a nice sunny day.

Good. There will be no shade for Coach.

Yeah, I don't want that sand to be burning.

JT won and put Stephen on reward, which is fine. The guys can go out and have a

good time. I'm not worried about it at all. I feel very confident in my

with Stephen and JT. We vowed that we'd go to the final three together, and we

will.

Well, interesting day, if nothing else.

I'm happy.

Yeah, me too. I'm feeling a little guilty.

Why? About what I said.

It was not an appropriate venue to say that. Like, it's a conversation I

probably should have had with him. No, no. He's a jerk.

He's a jerk. To say I'm not going to eat.

Give me a break.

You're sitting here suffering from asthma, broken disc, isn't that, and

not going to eat? Why wouldn't you, like, try and make yourself feel better?

that makes me sick. I'm so ready to send his air call.

I know, me too, but... And you know what kills me? He talked all smack about how

he's so broken down, but he was perfectly fine when he was on JT's

won, the warrior would have been back. Oh, I know, I know.

Yeah, I just, I don't understand the man. I don't understand his motives.

I would hate, hate, hate.

for anything that I said today to send me home before him. Don't worry. Please

don't worry. Okay. Do not worry. My strategy definitely is to go as far as I

with JT and Steven. I would hate for anything I said to change the way that

Steven and JT view me, but this is really the time where you do start to

really paranoid about this stuff.

This is going to be like a vacation for me.

A little fun time out here.

All those wishy -washy people at camp with no character.

Coach Wade Foundation is built on a rock. Inside here,

unbreakable, unbending, unyielding,

immeasurable, immovable, invincible.

Stay out here for a week without any food.

Only make me a better, stronger person.

You guys won't be able to get old Coach Wade down at all, I'll tell you that.

I will not have anything to eat.

It's going to be like the ancient American Indians that are my ancestors.

They used to go out into the wilderness for 48 hours, and they would commune

with the creator of the universe, and they would become men.

Well, I'm already a man, so this would just make me more of a man, but this is

going to be an adventure.

Thank you for creating me as an individual.

I ask that you would help me to forgive Aaron if he's back in camp thinking

negative thoughts about me.

At the challenge, Aaron said, well, I think Coach is just being a martyr, but

just let her have it.

Dragon Slayer thinks it's Dragon Kane.

Whether it's because I'm speaking such truth that nobody can deny it, or

I'm so eloquent, whatever the case, I got the last word.

And I hope she goes home next. She's certainly going to get my vote.

Coach Wade's body might be failing him in many ways, but Coach Wade still has

what it takes to outlast anybody out here in this environment.

Period. Paragraph.

Oh, wow.

This is how I like to travel.

When I woke up this morning, I never would have imagined I'd be in a private

plane. Look at this. This is the freak of life.

This was the best reward I could have possibly asked for.

A private plane to the governor's retreat.

I just really stoked it up. It's always been a dream of mine to have a private

plane and to be able to fly in one like that.

It was really awesome.

Woo!

Man, we're getting low.

Bye. Ciao, guys.

Thank you.

Oh, man.

Hello. Hello.

Hey. Welcome to Pousada Cantão, the governor's retreat.

Oh, my God.

Wow. Oh, man.

This is ridiculous.

I mean, this place is just beautiful.

You can tell there were some big parties thrown at this place.

All right. Thank you.

You're welcome.

We were taken to our room. Oh, my God. A bed.

Sour.

Oh, wow.

Oh, my gosh.

This is what I look like.

Wow.

I have a beard. All right. I think it was a little trim.

When we stepped into the bathroom, we looked at ourselves in the mirror, and

that was a shock. I mean, I haven't seen myself in over a month.

I was like, man, I've got to get a shower, get

out of here. So, oh, man, it was like heaven.

Oh.

Oh, man.

Can't get enough of this soap.

34 days.

I have not washed my neck until.

Oh.

Soon as we were clean, we left our room and went for our feast.

We're going to have tonight the authentic Brazilian churrasco.

Oh, yes.

It's a Brazilian barbecue with many kinds of meat.

Eat as much as you want.

Thank you so much. See you later.

Oh, yeah. Oh, wow.

Feliz Navidad.

Oh, wow.

Oh, my God.

This meat is incredible.

It is.

Yeah. Oh, my.

Is there more?

Of course.

Yeah.

We were having a meat festival. We had steak. We had pork.

We had a grilled pineapple.

We were filling up, and basically by the time we were done with the meat, we

were stuffed.

Well, buddy.

There's a final two in this game. Final two.

Oh.

I mean, we got this thing, man. There's no reason why you and I are sitting in

the final two.

Coach totally depends on us.

Coach is totally with us. And I will take Coach in final three.

I mean, Aaron went at him today, and that was a dumb move by her part.

Did the reward challenge.

Aaron goes on a little bit of a rant about how.

Well, Coach doesn't want to have to perform in the next immunity challenge.

giving himself excuses.

There was no reason to sort of rub salt in his wounds.

She can't really control what she says, which is not a great trait in a

potential ally.

Erin doing that, it kind of makes me want to keep her less.

What does it do for her? That's not strategic.

You never tell, man.

That's when people get screwed over.

And hopefully she's going to get screwed over.

My exile experience was no sleep, starving, no food,

very little water, and it was freaking awesome. It was a great experience to

be out here and once again test myself and have nothing.

Been in the Amazon, the Congo, the Orinoco, the Darien Gap.

Chalk another one to the left.

The dunes at exile.

Yes, I'm walking slower.

Yes, my asthma is still at the forefront of things.

Yes, it's going to take me longer to get to the challenge today. I do not feel

tired.

I do not feel hungry.

I feel nothing but incredible mental focus on the task at hand, which I have

accomplish today, and that's winning immunity.

Marcus Aurelius once said, through our greatest adversities come our greatest

successes.

I plan on winning immunity today.

We'll now bring in Coach, returning from Exile Island.

Oh, my God, Coach.

What's up, fellas? You look beat. Come on, bring it in.

I'm feeling great.

I'm feeling great. I'm feeling great.

When Coach returned from Exile with his cane, and he's limping, and I'm

thinking, this guy is such a drama queen.

He's so dramatic.

A 37 -year -old man who thinks he's a dragon slayer belongs in a mental

institution. They need to come get him. When we have tribal council, he'll be

free and they can take him home.

How'd it go down?

I was freezing.

I didn't get any sleep.

I didn't have any water, no food, no fire.

I had the best time of my life.

It was euphoric.

All right, you guys ready to get to today's challenge?

Yep. First things first, Stephen, take back the immunity necklace.

Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, you're going to use your arms to brace yourself between

two walls while your feet are positioned on very narrow footholds.

Every 15 minutes, you'll move to an even smaller foothold, and you'll be doing

this barefoot. When you reach the third and final foothold, you will stay there

for as long as you can.

When you fall off, you're out.

Last person, left standing.

Wins immunity is guaranteed a one in four shot of winning this game.

Losers, tribal council, somebody going home.

Let's take our spots. We'll get started.

Here we go.

All right, everybody's got their arms inside the frame, their feet on the

peg. This challenge is underway.

You cannot use your butt, your back, or your hips to lean against the wall and

give you support.

This is where mental toughness is going to win out.

All right, we're going to get ready

to move to the next smaller foothold.

I'm going to count you into this.

Five, four, three.

Two, one.

Take your time. Get yourself settled.

Everybody's looking good.

Coach, do you think the time you spent on exile meditating may have

prepared you for a challenge like this?

You know, deep down inside the pit of every man's stomach is the feeling that

he's no longer going to be invincible.

So for me to go out there and to put myself in the most extreme, situation

I could, I did it because I wanted for my mind to once and for all tell my body

that you still have it. Perfect opportunity to put that philosophy to

in this challenge because this is about mind over matter and it will get

difficult.

We're going to now move to the final foothold.

Five, four, three, two, one.

Aaron drops out before getting on the final foothold. Aaron will take a spot

the bench.

No shot at immunity.

Vulnerable at Tribal Council tonight.

There's no time limit now. This goes until only one person's left standing.

There's no way to prepare for a challenge like this physically. This is

your head.

Steven drops out. He's on the bench.

Taj digging in.

Taj cannot hang on any longer. Taj is out of the challenge.

We are down to two.

JT and Coach.

The listener and the talker.

The young buck, the older warrior, battling it out for a guaranteed spot

in the final four.

Any food, Jeff?

If I wheeled out a big old steak, a six -pack, you'd step down?

Probably so, Jeff.

Well, then you might as well step down unless you're trying to vote me off

tonight.

Can't believe you don't trust me, Coach.

I do trust you. I trust you implicitly, JT. You know that.

Good. You are a man of your word.

Few and far are those left in this world.

This is just how you want it, isn't it, Coach?

Battle against the best.

You've been talking about it for 36 days. You're getting it today.

And if they're 50 minutes now, you're going to have to fight the pain.

Your feet will recover.

No way to recover if you're voted out.

You ain't going to let me try a necklace on, are you, Coach?

Nope. Don't blame me. I got something to prove coming back from exile.

Don't hurt your back anymore. Don't.

JT has won individual immunity.

Oh, my God, man.

Are you okay, man?

You did awesome.

Be hard -headed. Get up. Come on. Are you okay?

My back was fastening up there. Can you stand up now, though?

Oh, man.

You did an incredible... Come on, stand up.

You don't have to stand up if you can't yet.

Where are you feeling it?

My back spasms while I was up that last 10 minutes.

Oh, my God, man. I felt something go.

I tried. I couldn't do it.

You going to want medical to look at that? Nope.

Nobody's taking me out of the game right now. If medical would really look at my

back, I wouldn't be here. So, no, please don't have them look at my back.

JT, congratulations.

JT is safe at tonight's tribal council.

Coach, Steven, Taj, Aaron, one of the four of you going home after 36 long

out here.

Grab your stuff, head back to camp. I will see you at tribal.

It's going to go a lot longer, huh?

Yeah.

It looked like Coach had really been suffering.

You know, he looked like he was all been really tough.

You know, I definitely felt bad for the guy.

But, you know, Coach is still the Dragon Slayer and a really strong competitor.

If I want to win this game, I want people I can beat in the finals.

Coach was really

ridiculous today. I mean, he walks in like he can barely move, and then he's

standing up on these things for, like, near an hour.

He's been walking around since we've been back.

Like, you're not as broken down as you're trying to make yourself look. And

really, like, I'm ready for him to go home.

No,

you don't want him to look at it because they're going to tell you there's

nothing wrong with you. There's absolutely nothing wrong with you.

He needed an excuse for not winning.

That was a classic struggle today, man.

How much longer could you have gone?

About 30 minutes.

As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.

Our ancestors would hope and pray for somebody worthy in battle to defeat

and I think that that definitely played out today with JT and myself. I was

honored by the defeat and the way that I went down.

JP reassures me, tells me, hey, everything's cool, man.

Don't worry, Aaron needs to go tonight because of the comments he made the

day. It was unforgivable.

It's just her time to go. It's been her time to go for a while.

I mean, if they're sending me to exile, supposedly, mentally, I'm supposed to be

down. So she's trying to kick me while I'm on the ground. Oh, yeah, that's it.

That's all she's doing.

And, you know, a lot of my bravado is just because I'm trying to tell myself,

hey, you're still kind of the man.

Hey, come on down. Her only option is to try to get Todd. Me and Steven ain't

breaking up. So you really want to send Aaron home tonight? I was really pissed

off. When she went to exile, we were all, like, patting her on the back, more

than, like, trying to kick her. Because, you know, I mean, I just thought it

was, like, so tasteless and classless.

Vicky and I sat down with Coach, and we reassured him that Warrior Alliance was

good and was going home tonight.

And, you know, JT is going to vote for Aaron because he feels like he promised

Coach that he would, but I don't know what I'm going to do. I mean, it's

tricky right now.

She tried to call me out in the very beginning, and I was like, those are the

kind of people that get their ass voted out. Right. Look, Brandon did it. Tyson

started getting sketchy.

Well, I am blown without ever sounding.

And you're totally cool with that?

I mean, I'm just asking, right? I mean, there's not going to be any surprises

tonight, right? No.

I'm done with the surprises at tribal, man.

Warrior Alliance is still going strong.

I've surrounded myself with strong players.

And to this date, it has not backfired on me.

It looks like through all the blind sides, Coach Wade will be the last tribe

member left of what used to be Timbera. I am the last of the Mohicans.

Now bring in the members of our jury.

Brendan, Tyson, Vieira, and Debbie voted out of the last tribal council.

So, Coach, let's start with your stay on Exile Island. When JT picked you to go

to Exile, you made your big thing about, I'm going to do this the hard way.

Erin, you didn't like that.

I didn't.

Like... he's weak and he's this and he's that, and then to go off and not eat or

drink for three days, that just really rubbed me the wrong way, and it just

minimized the entire experience that the rest of us were having here.

Was there a part of you that had just come off one of the roughest days on

exile, feeling a little bit like, you're going to upstage me with your dramatic

exile? Oh, God, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, like, the time that I spent out there sucked.

It was the worst thing I've ever done. I never want to do it again. And you're

standing there going, oh, I totally want to do that. That sounds awesome.

That sucks.

Coach, respect what Aaron's saying. I think that everybody here that's been in

exile had a much tougher time than me. But I had past experiences with which to

draw on, which made it easier for me.

And, you know, a lot of times men drop what they think is a pebble.

But women see a boulder dropping and crashing, an overwhelming sense of

judgment. I certainly wasn't trying to minimize her experience or anybody

for that matter. So there's really nothing else to say. You know, Mark

better for people to think you're a fool than to open your mouth and remove all

doubt. I've already done that. I really don't have any place to go now.

Erin, feel pretty secure about your alliance?

I never feel secure.

Ever.

Do you think the person going home tonight may know it's coming or is this

to be a shock?

For the most part, someone will be surprised. Yeah.

Coach, you think it's going to be a surprise tonight?

No.

Based on what?

Women have great intuition.

So you're saying it's already been said tonight if we listened?

Yes.

All right, it is time to get to the vote. One more thing.

Yeah. I wrote a poem for everybody to hear.

With friend and foe, we march to the battle plane.

Some to seek success, others to seek fame.

We play with honor for the love of this game.

And with armor or without, we will toil in vain so that someday, someone,

somewhere will remember our name.

Can't think of a better way to lead us into the vote.

JT, you keeping that idle? Yes, sir. You cannot vote for JT. Everybody else is

fair game. It is time to vote. JT, you're up.

Dragon Slade.

I'll go tally the votes.

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

last night you can do so.

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

be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately.

I'll read the votes.

First vote, Coach.

Aaron, one vote Coach, one vote Aaron.

Aaron, two votes Aaron, one vote Coach.

Coach, we're tied. Two votes Coach, two votes Aaron, one vote left.

12th person voted out and the fifth member of our jury.

Coach, you need to bring me your torch.

It was an honor, guys.

Thank you.

Coach, Travis Bogan.

Will it clear based on the number of blind sides at Tribal Council? This is

going to be a really fun finish.

Tribe of Torch, we'll step back to camp. Good night.

Stay tuned for scenes from our next episode.

Next time on Survivor. JT ended up voting with Coach for strategic reasons.

JT and Steven turn on each other.

That probably will come off as a villain. Either way, it's done.

And with only four left, all bets are off. This is a game for a million

You have to be ruthless. Join us for the exciting season finale.

There was some...

sadness tonight as i left i cannot imagine why someone would want to keep

over me in the warrior alliance but obviously somebody turned judging by

reaction was steven the wizard was definitely not the white wizard he was

evil wizard in the end it's a travesty death before dishonor and i did not

dishonor myself feel good about how i played the game
