JEM: My heart's beating really superfast.

It's a friggin' lockbox. It says,

"The location of the key will remain a mystery

until after your tribe loses a future immunity challenge."

Oh, my God.

PROBST: Previously onSurvivor...

BHANU: Tiffany and Q

-are really tight. -Amen.

And Kenzie's a mastermind.

LIZ: He tells us everything.

It is a gold mine of information.

[sobbing]: I need a miracle.

Q: Bhanu is a liability, but Kenzie is a threat.

So I want Kenzie to go home.

Oh, my God.

-LIZ: Hey, Doc! -RANDEN: Hey, it's Jeff.

PROBST: Randen, it's about your arm.

Just being very cautious about your health,

we are pulling you from the game.

Randen was pulled from the game,

which means no Tribal Council tonight.

[gasps]

PROBST: Nobody going home from this tribe.

[laughing]

Q: Kenzie got lucky.

She has no idea

how close she came to going home.

♪ ♪

I can't-I can't believe it.

Believe it.

I know. I am.

We are lucky.

For the first time.

-For the first time, we're... -It took seven days. We're lucky.

I think this little break really could change

the Yanu tribe's trajectory.

You know, we've been going like this.

All we need is one little spike in the market, you know,

that's it, to shoot back up.

BHANU: Group hug.

-I love you guys. -I love y'all.

-Yeah. -I love you. Second chance.

We're not out of the race yet.

This could be the turning point.

We've got a good base,

and now we've got a chance to build upon it.

I'm feeling good about it.

Why?

I said something wrong.

TIFFANY: What?

I said, "Kenzie's the mastermind here."

I just...

That's one thing I said.

And they... they-they said,

"Are Tiff and Q, like, close?"

I was like, "Yeah, they're close."

There's nothing wrong in that, right?

Is that close? Is that-is that bad?

I kind of don't really want them to know

how close me and Q are, 'cause then they're

-gonna try to split us up. -But they always see you guys like this.

So they've asked me that one question.

I-I'm just, like, being so clear.

So there's just, like...

'Cause then they're gonna try to break us up.

That's all I said. And that's it.

-Yeah. Yeah. -Mm.

Huh?!

Boy...

If you can't realize that going

to a journey to meet two other people

from other tribes, and they're asking you questions

about players on your tribe, that they're

pumping you for information, you are a liability.

-He going over there telling people that we close? -I-I can't.

I can't. I-I can't.

-There's no more going back to it. -Bro, like...

Now, he put a target on Kenzie back,

and he put a target on both of our back.

-He got to go. -Yeah.

TIFFANY: And I wonder what you said about yourself.

I'm sure he's probably like, "You know, I'm just

on the bottom right now, and I'm on my way out the door."

Probably made himself look like some friggin' sob story.

And everybody looks like a big threat except for him.

Yep. Done.

TIFFANY: If I would have voted out Kenzie and kept Bhanu

and then found out all this information,

I just would have jumped headfirst into the ocean.

I'd have been so pissed.

About the Kenzie thing?

About all of it.

Did I say something wrong?

Q: Not only did he put a huge target

on Kenzie's back, which I don't

really mind. Now

the target on my back is not only "curious, young,

"he's athletic, he's a physical threat.

"Oh, by the way, add the fact that...

he's a duo with Tiff."

Oh, man.

That "yes" had so much meaning.

Ah, ...

BHANU: I shouldn't have said that to them,

but I said it in good faith because I wanted

to be honest with my tribe.

[groans]

BHANU: The target on Kenzie was on and we were going to Tribal Council.

Everything is gonna go according to the plan,

and me just spilling everything out...

[sighs]

It just messed the whole game for me.

And he was like, "Yeah, that's because she's the mastermind,

and she's running the show over there."

Bitch.

Target number one, two and three-- me, you and Q.

He just...

Aah!

Like, I'm so mad at him.

-Are you dumb? -After we reamed him at Trib--

about the Jess Tribal?

He's literally

like a toddler. Like, when the oven is hot,

and you're like, "Don't touch the oven."

And he does and then he cries.

TIFFANY: Why would you ever say that?

-In Survivor... -'Cause he doesn't know how to play Survivor.

-And... -Why did he even come out here?

He could have just gone camping.

-Like, what was the point in him even... -Deadass.

-If you want to win a million hearts, go volunteer. -Oh, my God.

I still want to win

and I still want to stay tribe strong, but Bhanu

-is a liability. -TIFFANY: What...

MARIA: Jem, you looked in here, right?

JEM: I did not.

Every time that we would go to the water well,

I can see it.

But my job is to act like it's not there. I was like,

"Yeah, I think it might be hanging somewhere."

MARIA: Wait, guys.

CHARLIE: Did you just actually find it?

MARIA: I literally just looked right there.

CHARLIE: Oh, my God.

-TIM: Is that it? -Yes, it says Beware Advantage.

We're just gonna have a look. "Beware Advantage.

"If you take it it's yours and you must do what it says.

Otherwise, leave it."

MARIA: It's a little kumbaya

I'm gonna go for it, because without taking this risk,

there's no way I'm gonna

get that extra advantage, if it is one.

PROBST: Getting your first look at the new Nami tribe.

Randen was pulled from the game.

-Oh. -Oh, man.

Oh, my...

Hi.

All right, so just to catch everybody up,

Randen was suffering with an issue in his arm.

It was a pinched nerve, but our medical team

was very concerned about possible

long-term damage,

so we had to make the tough decision to end

Randen's journey in favor of his long-term health,

which means there was no Tribal Council.

Nobody from Yanu went home.

That tribe stays intact.

TIFFANY: Thanks, guys.

Shall we get to today's reward challenge?

-Yes. -[whoops]

PROBST: All right, for today's challenge,

you're gonna paddle your boat in from the ocean,

collecting a key along the way.

Once you reach the shore,

you'll use that key to unlock four rings.

Each player is then responsible for getting

one of those rings up and off that pole.

Once you have all four rings, you'll dig under a log

and race to toss those four rings back onto another pole.

First two tribes to finish win reward.

-Want to know what you're playing for? -Yes.

Food. Show me food.

You want food? You got food.

LIZ: PB&J!

[all exclaiming]

Told you.

PROBST: First tribe to finish,

ten decent-sized fresh fish

delivered to your camp,

along with a bamboo cooker and a diagram for how to use it.

Second tribe to finish,

smaller but just as appetizing.

-Five decent-sized fish will be delivered to your camp. -Yeah, let's go.

All right, sit-outs.

Nami, you're sitting one person out.

Who's it gonna be?

Venus gonna sit out for Nami.

Siga, you're sitting two people out.

Who's gonna sit out?

-Yeah. -Me and Moriah.

PROBST: Moriah and Ben will sit out.

All right, sit-outs, take a spot on the bench.

-Wow. -You're okay. Don't cry.

PROBST: All right, Yanu, you've earned ten fresh fish,

good size, delivered at your camp.

But I know what you're thinking.

You don't have flint, so you have the option

to trade this reward for an earlier one.

So if you wanted to trade for the large tool kit

and the large tarp and give up the fish, you can do that.

Those fish will not do us any good right now.

So the large tarp and tool kit.

Large tool kit, large tarp will be waiting for you back at camp.

-Hopefully that will change your lives quite a bit. -LIZ: Yeah.

Hell yeah.

Nami, five fresh fish will be

-waiting for you back at camp. -Thank you, Jeff. -Thank you.

PROBST: Nami, grab your stuff, head out and enjoy those fish.

-TEVIN: Thank you, Jeff. -Thank you. -We sure will.

PROBST: Siga, got nothing for you. Grab your stuff, head out.

Yanu, grab your stuff, head out.

Well done. Welcome to the game.

KENZIE: We didn't only win,

we demolished.

We beat them by a landslide,

which is the opposite

of what's been happening to us this entire time.

It's, like, the momentum that we needed.

Our core four is finally getting it together.

And that is why you never give up on Survivor.

I really wanted to cut and clean the fish

and I haven't done it

since I did it with my dad.

♪ ♪

I had been trying to go fishing with him for about three years,

but I was so busy with my career

and I kept being like, "Oh, I can't do it."

You know, "I can't do it. I can't do it."

And then the time to do it is eternally past.

My dad passed away

about ten months ago.

And so I didn't get to fish with him that one last time, so...

It was just nice to do something today that was just, like...

Dad's right here.

We had a very powerful relationship.

When I didn't have a car,

he gave me his one and only car,

so that I could get back and forth to high school.

And he had no transportation.

And he called me every single day just to say,

"Hey, how are you doing?"

One of the hardest parts about him passing was that,

the day after he passed, my phone didn't ring.

-SODA: Wow! -LIZ: Wow.

We ready.

-Beautiful. -TEVIN: Here they are.

-SODA: Aw. -Um, my dad taught me how to do this.

And this is, I think, the first time I've done it without him.

-But, like, I did it. -LIZ: Oh, wow.

SODA: That's the way to fish, baby!

TEVIN: So I was filled with pride to know that something

my daddy taught me is coming into play right now.

And I'm about to give this thing that I have crafted

to these people who need it,

which is what he was all about.

So he lives on.

[gasps]

Wow.

-Fantastico! -We did it!

We finally won something.

[singsongy]: First place. Who would have thought?

That's crazy. We really bodied that whole challenge.

KENZIE: Yeah, we did.

TIFFANY: We blew those other teams out today.

Oh, that's real big.

But this win was bigger than us just

winning a tarp and some tools.

This could definitely be a turning point for our tribe.

If we could really get our stuff together,

we might not have to lose anymore.

Go to your right.

Go to my...

Opposite side of the girls right now.

I'm exactly at the opposite side of the girls.

-Go to the other side of the shelter. -KENZIE: Go that way.

Onto the girls' side.

TIFFANY: No, we-- You are on the girls' side. Go to the other side.

Q: I know that if we go to Tribal next,

Bhanu is the one that's going home.

But if he's going to be around,

I have to make sure

that Bhanu is the best player

that he can be.

Just stay in the moment, stay in the current.

But I think there's so much

that Bhanu don't understand and don't know

about the game ofSurvivor.

We have to fix your social and strategic game

to where it's not a liability.

So what I'm doing is taking my time to actually train him,

and that is my job as the coach.

We're having coaching sessions.

Hopefully I can teach him

how to keep his mouth shut.

You need to be thinking about every moment.

From here on out, start playing conversations in your head.

In this game,

you have a lot of people who want to manipulate you.

They ask you questions and they buddy you up.

-Mm. -And you feel like,

"Oh, my God. I got to give something back."

No, the ... you don't.

My training with Bhanu is training his emotions,

training his speech.

So you don't want me to talk strategy at all?

Teaching him techniques

to use in general conversations with others.

Tonight, who you voting for?

I don't know who I'm voting for.

-Would you vote Tiff tonight? -Oh, yeah, sure.

So you're voting Tiff?

So that right there was a bit too much,

'cause you jumped on it too quick.

Oh...

Q: And I'm teaching him

how to talk at Tribal.

So, Bhanu, what's going on

at your camp? We're merged.

This is Jeff talking to you.

We're vibing with everybody.

You know, it's-it's cool.

And when you say "we," who is we, Bhanu?

Everybody. I'm vibing with all of them.

Perfect, Bhanu.

BHANU: Is that Jeff or coach talking?

Oh, okay.

Q: I'm not very optimistic

about his approach going forward,

but if the little bit that I can teach him can help,

I'm going to continue to try.

What did you learn? Tell me.

Ask me the same question, coach.

-KENZIE: Just-just tell me... -No, just tell her what you learned.

BHANU: So, this is what I learned.

When Jeff asks, like,

"Hey, Bhanu. So what's going on?"

I would be like, "Things are good, you know?

We're all vibing with each other."

I'm glad you're practicing.

I want to practice with you, too.

We'll have more sessions.

-I'll have more. -Mm-hmm.

I'll-I'll have it with Kenzie, too.

-Kenzie? -Yeah?

I am helping you.

Oh, no, no, no. Yes, you are now.

-I will help you. -Yes.

I just want to enjoy our win for, like, five minutes.

-I want to not talk about strategy. -Oh, sorry.

I'm just gonna walk away.

You have the patience of a saint.

I snapped at Bhanu because

you are probably 15 years older than me.

Like, I...

shouldn't have to help you play Survivor.

And, of course, Bhanu is like, "I'll just walk away."

I'm like, "Okay. Go."

I'm over it. I'm over babying Bhanu.

It's so annoying.

BEN: Let's start with the positives.

This was just a reward challenge.

And I want to say that even in

the face of all the insanity,

you guys were still a team

and I couldn't be more proud of y'all.

So, you know, Maria,

I know you feel like the weight is on your shoulders

because it was that whole situation.

But I still did it.

-You still did it. -Yeah.

But, yeah, also, every single person out there believed in you

and trusts you and doesn't put any ounce of blame on you.

JEM: And we don't even--

-It's just fish, Maria. It's not that big a deal. -CHARLIE: Yeah.

MARIA: You know what? As immigrants,

success was survival for my family.

And so we grew up

where we had to be perfect.

And so I never wanted to fail.

So many times I wondered, like, "Am I enough? Am I good enough?"

You know? And this was, like, a big, big place...

to fail in front of a lot of people.

Growing up, our parents wanted so much for us.

They came from Lebanon to this country

and worked so hard.

And so, you know, we-we were pushed hard.

We were pushed with this sort of fire in us to succeed.

And when

there were moments in life when I didn't,

you know, I was hard on myself.

What I've worked on the last couple years

is shedding the shame... [sniffles]

the shame and the guilt behind not succeeding.

And just knowing that it's a moment in time,

and that doesn't define who I am.

BEN: Listen, Maria, you're gon--

I know you're taking this loss hard,

but it's gonna be a lesson for you

in more of that letting go of shame.

-Yeah. -BEN: You know what I'm saying?

So either way, whether we had the fish or not,

-it's gonna be a positive. -OTHERS: Yeah.

-BEN: All right? -Thank you.

[Charlie whoops]

Let's not forget, we also have a Beware Advantage

we can look for, too.

-Yeah. -All right?

Because of Maria.

-All right? -CHARLIE: Yeah.

JEM: That was good.

CHARLIE: This Beware Advantage, it drives me nuts because

Maria and I didn't get to control

this potential really valuable

piece of information.

-MORIAH: Ready to do this? -MARIA: Diggy, diggy.

CHARLIE: She got so excited

that she told the whole damn tribe

and, all of a sudden, this whole

big group effort is going on.

That's reason one to be frustrated.

I mean, this is insane.

This is under a tree.

This is, like, we're digging in a tree's roots.

Reason two is we can't

freaking find the thing.

We've dug so far under this crazy tree.

-This is a serious hole we dug. -This is, like, unreal.

CHARLIE: And there's nothing. So what the heck is going on?

Because the next most likely option

is that someone planted it there.

This feels, like, comical.

We've dug out as far as you can go under the spot.

So, like, where is it?

Either that or somebody's being sneaky

-and found it in another tree. -MARIA: Someone-- Exactly.

BEN: Jeff, where is this thing, dude?

Jeff don't lie.

A few fundamentals inSurvivor:

One: Jeff will never lie to you.

Two: Jeff will never give you anything impossible.

TIM: If Jeff put this in the tree, he's good,

'cause this is absurd.

MORIAH: So maybe Jeff

is not the reason we're digging there.

JEM: It's great.

My game is going the way I intended it to go,

'cause I wanted the suspicion to be off of me

-and onto someone else. -Ah.

What's the suspicion?

MORIAH: We're thinking Tim might've planted it.

JEM: 'Cause, Maria, nobody else

was, like, going as hard as he was.

He's overcompensating

to take all the suspicions off of him.

I mean, that's a massive possibility.

JEM: The idea that Tim might have the hidden immunity idol--

like, that's what I wanted.

I came to playSurvivor, and I'm playing

as hard as I can with what I'm given.

♪ ♪

People want to, like, chill, lounge, and, uh, you know,

Bhanu is a stupid ass.

And so, the stupid ass is gonna go and do stupid ...

I left the camp because, all of a sudden,

Kenzie-- she just, like, snapped at me.

I'm being treated like... nobody.

They're not respecting me.

I'm so stupid.

I had so much power in the game and now I'm like a puppet,

and they're the puppet masters.

They're like, "Do this, do that, do this, do that."

And this is what I get.

I've seen all the seasons ofSurvivor as a superfan,

but when it comes to social skills,

it's still not sinking in me.

Everyone feels like I'm a dumb dumbo.

"Oh, we need to teach him

how to walk, how to talk."

So I became a robot, so I'm no longer a Bhanu.

I'm just, like, you know, I...

They're like puppeteers and I'm a puppet.

It feels... it... I-I don't like that.

Take your moment.

I'll go apologize. I don't want him to spiral.

I snapped at Bhanu, and then,

because I know he's emotional, I know

that I have to go run damage control

so that Bhanu doesn't think everybody's mad at him again.

Bhanu?

I'm, like, one foot in front of the other

just trying to find this man so I can apologize...

Bhanu?

...when any other person would be like,

"Maybe I shouldn't enlist her to, like,

"train me on how to do the thing

we came out here to do right now."

But we have to make Bhanu feel good because

if we go on a winning streak and we take Bhanu to the merge,

we need him to stay loyal to Yanu.

I'm sorry I snapped at you.

Like, we are a tribe.

We want to keep our numbers.

We need you to be successful at Tribal.

Like, I'm here to help you.

-Thank you. Thank you. -'Cause we need you.

And I know it's hard.

I feel so bad that here is this old child-man

-that needs help. -It's okay.

I love you. All right, we'll get through it.

BHANU: Kenzie came to me and said like,

"I really... I apologize."

Makes me feel better.

And I was like, "Okay, you know what?

Uh, bygones, bygones."

Thank you for understanding. Cool.

BHANU: I can take some lessons.

Like, you know, I know it's very important

for my game, for everyone's game.

If so many people are putting work into me,

I think I need to put some effort in it.

-LIZ: Perfect. -TEVIN: There you go.

All right, I'm gonna wash shirt, pants, socks.

LIZ: If anybody sees

some dirty orange underwear...

-TEVIN: Ooh. -SODA: Right there. -...holler at me.

I haven't washed my shorts at all,

and then these two undies.

I feel like my game's going pretty well.

There's five people in this tribe.

I personally feel like there's a solid three

with Hunter, Tevin, and I, which leaves,

on the minority, Liz and Venus.

LIZ: I found my underwear!

Yay!

But you have a lot of downtime

when you win because you do not have to go to Tribal.

Guys, I just realized something.

Those two little triangles at the bottom of our flag

look like slices of pizza.

Even though I'm pretty good at just being, like, kumbaya,

your head has to constantly be in this game.

You know, I like to check in and stuff,

see where people's heads are at.

You know I really want to connect with you.

I want to stay connected to you.

And you are my confidant out here.

Like, it's 100% me,

Liz, you, Tevin and Hunter.

There's nothing that this fab five cannot do.

If you're even out of the game for a second

and you get stuck, that's it.

You will be out like a light. You'll be gone.

-Like, what... -I feel like she knows

that, like, we are tight,

and I feel like that three going into the merge is gonna

be super powerful three.

And I know this is tight, so I'm not worried.

Hmm.

Soda is a social butterfly, as am I.

However, she's playing the game a little too hard for me.

-Soda. -TEVIN: There's moments where I'm watching her,

and it seems like she's having

little whisper moments behind my back.

-We're all vibing, but... -Yeah.

I'm down for individual vibes because I love everyone.

TEVIN: I'm just a little worried that she may be playing me

just as she's playing everyone else.

And it breaks my heart to say it because I do

have a connection with her that is so deep.

But the target in which I am seeking to hit now

is shifting.

And so now I need to be the one

to get into everyone's head and plant seeds.

For tribe strength, I would rather get rid of Venus

than Soda, but you already know

that Soda is playing a real...

game.

I would rather keep our game alive

and have a weaker tribe than...

So are you saying,

just making it seem like it's Venus,

and then we just switch it to Soda?

HUNTER: I think that's the safest 'cause...

TEVIN: 'Cause she wouldn't expect it?

HUNTER: She wouldn't expect it.

Yeah.

I actually have wanted Soda out for a while

because she's my competition for closeness with Tevin.

So whenever Tevin started expressing doubt

in Soda, you know,

that sounds great to me. Let's do it, right?

I just want to ask, if we have to go to Tribal Council,

how do you feel if we were... had to vote Soda?

Because my gut is telling me,

"Tevin, you got to play the game."

And if playing the game means that I have to

get somebody out of this game

who I think is manipulating everyone...

To be honest with you, I think she's the one to beat.

This is great news for me because

I really have this feeling

that if Soda makes it to the merge,

Soda is on her way to final Tribal Council,

and I cannot have that.

Yeah.

TEVIN: As far as we're concerned,

me, Hunter and Liz are on board.

Like, Soda got to Go-da.

-MARIA: Day nine. -MORIAH: Day nine?

-MORIAH: Your day, Maria. -Yes, it is.

This is the moment I've been waiting for.

Ooh!

[Moriah gasping]

-Jumping off something. -MORIAH: Jumping off. -CHARLIE: Yup.

The buoys?

Jump off, grab a key, into the water.

-CHARLIE: Buoys. -MARIA: Yeah. Yup.

MORIAH: Oh, my God.

Homegirl can't jump.

And coming out here, even my friends were like,

"You know, Moriah, you're gonna have to tell them eventually."

And I'm like, "No, no, no, no.

It's fine, it's fine, it's fine."

And then we get to tree mail

today and immediately,

my heart sinks

like the dense gravity

that I apparently have in my body.

I feel like we've been ready for this moment.

I am worried about jumping, to be honest.

We believe in you.

-We can do that. -You guys haven't seen me jump yet.

-JEM: It's okay, Moriah. -It's okay. We've seen you dive.

CHARLIE: Remember, you're gonna get a running start

-Yeah. -and you're gonna be good.

-MARIA: Yeah. -Oh, that's easy.

MORIAH: This is such a Siga thing.

We're very, very open as a tribe

of what our advantages and disadvantages are.

Squat down, arms down, and this is your motion.

MORIAH: And part of our spirit is that

we work together to think of a solution that will

get us that extra inch.

For you to know,

this is the vertical you're dealing with.

-[laughing] -Okay.

BEN: Moriah-- she cannot jump.

I don't know if David Lee Roth will be proud of that one.

You know what I'm saying?

-[grunts] -Up.

Here we go, Mo.

-Explode. -Nice.

Okay.

CHARLIE: Moriah's jumps were not, um...

great. It was... it was not great.

-[grunts] -Very nice.

But we want

to inspire confidence in Moriah.

-BEN: Let's go, Mo! -Let's go, Mo.

-Let's go! -Here we go, Mo.

It's all about building up in her mind,

"You can crush this."

-[grunts] -[Jem laughs]

Jem, we're supportive!

That was a great jump.

It was really good.

[laughing]: Oh, my God.

Okay. Come on.

MORIAH: I don't know if I actually

got better

at jumping.

Better. Better. Not bad.

MORIAH: But I know that I felt more confident

and I felt like, "I can give 'em my all, and, heck,

I might even be able to do it."

-Ow. -PROBST: Look at us

all back together on day nine, Survivor46.

[whooping]

All right, shall we get to today's

-immunity challenge? -[all voicing assent]

First things first. Got to take back the idols.

Thank you. Thank you.

Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, one at a time,

you're gonna climb to the top of a tall tower

and leap out into the ocean.

You're then gonna climb up onto a crate,

jump back into the ocean.

Two players will be responsible

for releasing a net full of buoys.

Once everybody's at the finish,

one player will attempt to land those buoys

in three baskets.

First two tribes to finish

win immunity, safe from the vote.

Losers, Tribal Council

where somebody will be the fourth person

voted out of Survivor46.

And as a penalty for losing, I will take your flint.

Yanu, day nine.

You are still

fighting to get yours. All right.

Sit-outs. Siga, you're sitting out two people.

Cannot be the same people in back-to-back challenges.

Who's gonna sit out?

It's gonna be Jem and Maria.

All right, Nami, you're sitting one person out.

-Who's it gonna be? -I'll sit out.

PROBST: Tevin gonna sit it out.

All right, sit-outs, take a spot on the bench.

Everybody else, give you a minute to strategize.

We'll get it on. Let's do it.

[applause]

All right, here we go.

For immunity.

Survivors ready?

-Go! -[applause]

It's Q in the water,

Tim in the water, Hunter in the water.

TIFFANY: Good job, Q.

PROBST: You got to get up that net

to the top of a tall tower.

And once you're up there,

might as well jump.

SODA: Oh, Hunter, go!

PROBST: Hunter-- whoa-- nearly jumps

right onto the platform.

Tim gonna jump for Siga.

There goes Q is in the water.

Hunter quickly up and over and diver down.

TEVIN: Wow.

PROBST: He's got the buoys

about as fast as you could do this leg of the course.

There goes Tim for Siga.

MARIA: Go, Tim!

PROBST: Tim has the buoys for Siga.

Q for Yanu.

Q with a nice face-plant.

Somebody get me a doctor.

And he's got the buoys for Yanu!

[overlapping shouting]

PROBST: Hunter, got to get up on that platform

with your buoys.

-Go, Nami! -LIZ: Let's go!

PROBST: Gonna be Soda in the water.

LIZ: So fresh, baby!

Here comes Tim. You got to get up on that platform.

Go, Tim! Get 'em in the basket!

-Go, Siga! -MARIA: Go, Ben!

PROBST: There's Ben in the water for Siga.

Soda, it is tough getting up that net.

That is not easy, and that's

the easiest part of this challenge.

-Go, Soda! -LIZ: Yeah, Soda!

PROBST: Soda gonna be to the edge.

That's how you do it!

-Ben up at the top of the tower. -CHARLIE: You got this.

PROBST: It's Moriah in the water.

Here comes Bhanu.

Bhanu! Bhanu!

Bhanu! You got to go back and do the crate.

Big setback for Yanu.

Here comes Moriah.

Go, girl!

Hunter pulls up Soda. You're good!

TEVIN: All right, let's do the thing.

PROBST: Here comes Moriah.

You're good, Siga!

Charlie in the water for Siga.

There goes Charlie.

Here comes Bhanu.

He's exhausted.

Go, Yanu!

It's Tiff in the water

-for Yanu. -MARIA: You got it, Charlie!

PROBST: It's Siga still in the lead.

You're good. Start releasing your buoys.

You're looking for three buoys with your insignia.

There goes Tiff.

Here comes Liz.

PROBST: It's gonna be Tim...

who tries to jump on the platform.

Hold onto it.

-MARIA: You got it! Yeah! [yells] -[Jem yells]

Tim nearly falls off.

Let's go, Tim.

PROBST: Tim just short.

You're good, Nami! Go!

It's now Venus, the last person for Nami.

Look at Tiff moving through that water.

[Jem and Maria screaming]

Tim scores the first basket for Siga.

JEM: Yes, Tim!

PROBST: Here comes Venus.

No messing around.

Here goes Kenzie in the water.

Give it a five and a half.

Tim trying to extend the lead.

Tim just short.

-PROBST: Here comes Venus. -TEVIN: Come on, V.

PROBST: And here comes Kenzie. You're good.

It is Siga with a big-time lead right now.

-Tim just misses. -It's right there.

Got to get your three buoys. You're good.

Yanu has their three buoys. It's gonna be Q.

Here goes Hunter.

Michael Jordan, baby. Michael Jordan, baby. [whoops]

but I am keeping your flint. All right, you have

the afternoon to figure out who it's gonna be.

And-- sorry for you-- you got to swim out.

Back in the water.

Peace out, Tiff.

KENZIE: Wasn't that fun to think that Yanu would win

an immunity challenge?

It was a dream that

just got squandered before our eyes yet again.

But tonight,

we're all voting out Bhanu.

Q: Bhanu's a great guy, but my vote

has to go towards Bhanu tonight.

TIFFANY: Tonight, I think there's only one thing

that needs to happen, and I think that is

Bhanu needs to go home.

[birdsong]

TIFFANY: I'm actually about to go get out of these wet clothes.

I'll be back.

KENZIE: Staying put.

It's an easy vote tonight, so...

-It is. -...we can just chill.

It's not the end of the game for us. [chuckles]

BHANU: Yeah, all three of them--

they're having a conversation there.

Never once, they talk to me.

Never once they include me in anything.

What are we gonna do about Bhanu this afternoon?

TIFFANY: I ain't doing nothing about Bhanu this afternoon.

It's just the frustration of constantly making

somebody feel better about the things

-that they've done wrong to you. -KENZIE: All right.

"It's okay, you put a target on my back. It's okay."

"It's okay, you lied to me."

No, it's not okay. It's not okay.

BHANU: The vote is already decided.

You know who you're voting.

The one person who doesn't have a vote today-- me.

Ugh!

But it's okay.

I need to look for the idol.

I need to look for the idol. God, please help me.

One thing is for sure-- I am not going home tonight.

If I can find the immunity idol,

I can change the course of the game.

[groans]

Jeff, where did you put the idol?

I'm digging deep here.

"Dig deep," he says.

"Dig deep."

There should be some marker, something.

If I have to climb Mount Everest, I will do it.

God is listening.

Like, today is the day. You need to help me.

Help me, help me, help me, help me, help me.

...Jeff hid another idol on this island? -Bruh.

-The best he could do is save himself -That's it.

with an idol that he might find,

which he won't, 'cause I have it.

Where is this damn idol?!

I searched, and now here I am.

No vote, no agency.

No... I can't do Shot in the Dark.

Nothing! Wow!

What a plan, man.

What a plan.

You okay?

I'm not. Here.

I'm mad at myself and I'm mad at Him.

If this is what You wanted, if You wanted

to end my story so soon,

You shouldn't have put me on Survivorin the first place.

I'm so sorry, Bhanu.

I've given it my all for this game.

Ugh!

[sighs, sniffles]

I'm so mad. I'm so mad.

Oh. [sniffling]

What can I do?

Can you find me an idol?

Tiff, you need to help me to... Please?

-No. Please, Bhanu. No. -Please, Tiff. Please.

Get up off your knees. What the hell are you doing?

-No, I will not. I will not. -Ah, bro, please.

-Tiff, you need to help me. You know... -No. Get up.

First of all, I'm not gonna talk to you

if you're on your knees. I'm not gonna do that.

-I need you to stand up. -Tiff.

All right.

I'm gonna keep it honest with you.

I'm gonna write your name tonight.

I'm just being 100% honest. I am writing your name tonight.

Can I-can I ask you what... the reason behind that?

-Yes. Yes. -Please.

I feel like I can't trust you.

I'm sorry that, you know, it has to end like this,

but I hope that you can respect the fact

that I'm at least being honest with you.

-Gotcha. -Can I have a hug?

I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry I screwed it up for us.

It's fine, Bhanu. Don't be sorry to me.

It's fine.

[sighs]

This is it for me.

Nine days is what...

...is written for Bhanu.

I have to just accept it.

Namaste.

Thanks to the island.

Thanks to everything here.

I realize that honesty has no meaning in this game.

A momentary truth caused...

so much.

I learned a lesson a hard way, that, you know,

five seconds of my honesty ruined my game.

That's how hard this game is.

But guess what?

I figured that I'm such an emotional person.

I'm a very good person.

I'm a loyal person, I'm an honest person.

And that's what my journey's been.

I am going home tonight.

But tonight, you know what?

I'm gonna tell my story

because they still don't know my story.

And I'm so glad that I got a chance to playSurvivor.

It's not about the million dollars.

All I wanted to do is win a million hearts.

♪ ♪

PROBST: All right.

I'd like to go back,

since we didn't get to have Tribal last time,

and talk about the journey.

Bhanu, you were selected to go on that journey.

How'd that go?

I went on this journey

and, um, I lost my vote.

Not only that, but I revealed that

Q and Tiff, when I asked, like,

are they working together, I said like, "Yes."

And then I also said, like,

you know, Kenzie is a good game player.

PROBST: Tiff, did you ask Bhanu what

his motive was in giving away this information?

TIFFANY: Yes. I don't know if I've got

an actual answer,

but it seemed like he didn't understand

that by revealing that information,

he was putting a target on all three of us.

Like, I just don't think he understood in that moment

that he was getting played.

PROBST: So, Bhanu, is it that you want to play that way

or is part of it figuring out

how to play Survivorand you're still figuring it out?

Jeff, the first six days has been...

Like, I'm not clicking, like how to play the game.

Sixth day, the moment it clicked,

and then, I spilled the beans to my Tribemates.

So when I'm trying to get the game,

the game took over, and I dug my grave so deep,

I couldn't come out of it.

PROBST: So I'm getting a sense that...

You're already nodding. You finish.

What was I gonna say?

That Bhanu is going home tonight.

-Is that what's happening? -Yes.

I told Bhanu straight up, I'm writing that name down.

-Yeah. -Yeah. -I have to write his name.

And Bhanu, you don't have a vote, which means you can't play

-the Shot in the Dark. -No.

PROBST: It requires a vote to sacrifice.

And this would then make me think

that you've all talked about idols, and you don't have one.

I've searched nine days, Jeff,

for an idol, and

I've done everything, but I don't have anything.

I don't have a vote, I-I don't have an idol.

I don't have alliances.

I screwed up this game big-time.

Well, it's rare when this happens,

but I find it intoxicating

because there's no deception happening.

You're not trying to blindside somebody.

You've all been honest with Bhanu.

-Yeah. -PROBST: Honest. The word

of Bhanu's whole time out here-- honesty.

So, Bhanu, what is your Survivorjourney?

-What has it been? -Jeff, the reason why

I'm on this show is because

I want to share my story.

I told them that I had a very good life,

but that's a lie. [laughs]

I was born into poverty to a teenage mother,

and was abandoned by my maternal father

when I was three months old.

-And where were you? -I was in India.

After a few years, my mom got married,

moved to a different city, and I was living with my grandparents.

And can you describe a little bit

-what poverty is like in India for you? -BHANU: Yes.

So, the poverty is just like the camp.

-That was my house in India. -PROBST: Literally?

-Like, a thatched roof? -A thatched roof, yes.

And that's how I grew up. I grew up literally on streets.

But I learned to be honest and help each other,

and that's how we all survived.

I put in a lot of effort, and I am the first one

in my entire family to graduate from high school,

first one to have a graduate degree,

first one to actually

move to United States.

And I also found my partner.

So, all these things.

So, the reason why I wanted to be on Survivoris because

there's so many Bhanus still out there,

still living in poverty.

So all the Bhanus out there, listen.

There is always hope, and you can move mountains.

And if I can come from that place,

a lot of people can also do it.

But, unfortunately,

this is how it...

it's ending, so, it's on me.

Thank you so much for this opportunity,

and thank you, tribe.

-Thank you for sharing that with us. -Yeah.

Yeah.

Q: You know, Bhanu, I want you to understand, brother,

you've done a great job

with the man you've become today.

And the man that you were in our tribe

showed us that,

man, we could count on you for a lot of things.

PROBST: You know, Bhanu, one time you said to me,

I am your guru,

-which I took as a compliment. -Yes, sir.

But also, remind yourself

you're your own guru.

What you've done with your life is remarkable.

And I say this all the time.

The game of Survivor is about the adventure,

putting yourself in this environment

to see what you're capable of,

and that's what you've been doing.

You won my heart, Bhanu,

-all of our hearts. -Mine, too.

Seriously.

All right, Bhanu, when you're ready.

Bhanu, the tribe has spoken.

Time for you to go.

Thanks for being here.

Love you, Bhanu.

Q: Love you, man.

[Bhanu sniffles]

[crying quietly]

[sniffles]

Grab your torches. Head back to camp.

Good night.

PROBST: Next time onSurvivor...

SODA: Looking for an idol is difficult, but

we don't want it to fall into the wrong hands.

TIM: Somebody's not telling the truth.

Ugh! We're all suspects.

I'm a superfan of Survivor,

and I came here to just be an honest person,

and that's where the game caught me.

But I hope my story reaches out to the audience

and all the Bhanus out there.

Have faith.

Don't ever give up on anything in life.

I came from poverty, and here I am sitting onSurvivor.

Namaste.
