1 Oh.

Right now, I don't know what to trust.

I don't know who to trust.

I had no idea this was coming.

I mean, the only person that was more blindsided was Brad,

and he went home.

I thought we were voting JD.

- So-so now, now I know. Hold up. Hold on.

I'm on the bottom of this.

Hold on. I know... I...

- Hold on. Well, guess what.

You guys do your own food.

I'm-a do my own food.

And you guys work as hard as you want,

and I'll work as hard as I want for myself.

I've been, like, feeding them, dude.

I've been, like, the mom.

I've been, like, in the kitchen.

I know nobody wants to do that ....

Nobody wants to tend to the fire.

If you don't want to work with me,

I'm not taking care of you guys. I'm not.

Genie, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna squash this right now,

and I'm gonna tell you something, okay?

And nobody else knows this,

but Brad had an advantage that he didn't tell you about.

He got the, the Steal a Vote.

He only told me that.

I was Brad's number one.

Brad wasn't taking you anywhere, boo.

- Wow. - And he didn't...

He kept you out of the loop on that.

That's crazy. Bro, kudos to him. Played me.

I'm mad because when Shan found out

that I was not telling her about my extra vote,

she made me feel terrible about it.

I, literally, gave her my advantage.

And then for me to find out that

she was actually withholding information from me, as well.

I was like, "You played me."

I don't understand why I was kind of raked over the coals,

in a way, for not telling people about my advantage,

and then there's just all this information

that I had no idea about.

Brad told me that in confidence.

That's his stuff.

You won something.

Yeah, that's my stuff.

I'd like it back in my bag.

Oh, okay.

You can have it back. You can have it back.

You know, I think she gave me the extra vote back

'cause she actually does trust me.

And now that bad boy is back in my bag.

But fool me once, shame on me. And that's it.

That's the end of it. You're not gonna fool me twice.

Come on in.

Luvu and Yase getting your first look to the new Ua tribe.

Brad voted out at the last Tribal Council.

All right, let's get to your first reward challenge.

- All right. Oh, wow.

For today's challenge,

you're gonna race out with a ball,

toss it into an overhead track

and then catch it on the other side.

Once all four players are through,

you're gonna dig under a beam,

and then, one at a time,

attempt to land those balls on a perch.

The first two tribes to finish win reward.

Want to know what you're playing for?

- Yeah. - Yes.

The winning tribe will have a visitor

waiting for you back at camp.

- An expert at living off the land in Fiji.

They will teach you lessons you can use the rest of this game.

The second tribe to finish...

-...one beautiful fish to share. - Ooh.

Wow. Losers, you're on your own.

Luvu, you're sitting two people out.

Keeping in mind, whoever sits out of this challenge

must participate in the immunity challenge.

- Naseer and Erika. - And Erika.

Naseer and Erika gonna sit out.

Everybody else, give you a minute to strategize.

We'll get started.

Let's do it!

All right, here we go.

For reward.

Survivors ready?

- Go! - Come on, Xander. You got this.

It is Deshawn, Ricard and Xander

- taking it on first.

Xander lands it down the track, and he's moving fast.

Xander has it. He's good.

- Deshawn is good. Nice. Nice. Nice.

- Good job. - Good job. Yes.

Ricard is through.

Heather's working for Luvu.

Yes. Ah, damn. Almost. Almost.

You got this, Shan.

There you go.

Wow, Shan, trying to catch it.

Can she get there?

- Yes! - Nice job, Shan!

- Yes, go, go, go, go... There you go. There you go.

You got it. You got it...

Liana, wow!

Whipped through that course. Nice job.

Yes, yes, go, go, go...

JD's got a shot.

- But he stumbles. Can't do it.

JD's got to go back.

They're not getting it. There you go. We can.

- Oh, my God. Heather still working for Luvu.

There it is! There it is!

You got this. You got this.

You got... Turn around, turn around.

- Yes, yes, JD, go. Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

JD is through. Go!

- It's Genie, the last member for Ua. - Come on, Genie. Come on, girl.

- Go, go. Yes, yes. There you go, Tiff.

Here goes Tiffany.

Wow, she's got a shot.

Yes! Yes. - And she's got it.

- Go, Evvie!

- Go, go, go! - Evvie's got a shot.

It's the first reward challenge of the season.

- Yes! That's how you do it!

- Start digging. Let's go.

Heather still working it for Luvu.

- Oh, my God. Hustle! Hustle!

Genie, she's on track. Hustle, hustle, you got it!

And that is good. Start digging.

Come on, guys. Dig.

To the right. To the right.

To the right. There you go. Same throw.

Heather is in trouble right now.

Heather, yes! Let's go, Heather!

She will never get to that one.

Heather has got to get through this.

Good job, Liana.

You're good, Yase. Go.

Okay.

Put 'em all in the basket.

You're good, Ua.

- It's gonna be Xander now.

And JD.

- There it is! - Yes. - Yes.

JD with the first one for Ua.

It's Ua in the lead.

First and second place on the line.

There's no quit over here.

- There you go. To the right... Luvu nowhere close.

Come on, Heather. Never quit, Heather. You got it. - Straight up. There you go.

Heather struggling. Will she have a shot?

Let's go, Heather. Dive!

- Move! Move!

Oh. It's okay. - Oh, ....

Just be prepared to catch it when you come out, okay?

It's okay. We got time. We love you.

- You're all right. - You're fine. You're fine.

We love you, Heather. - Sorry.

No. Stop.

Don't give up.

- Yes! Yes! Come on, Genie. - Ricard lands his second for Ua.

It is Ua in the lead with two.

- There you go.

Yase lands their first ball.

- Again. - Same routine.

- Go, go, go, go, go! - Let's go, Heather! Yes, Heather! Yes!

Be ready to catch it. Be ready to catch it.

Heather.

We want to see you do well, Heather. Keep going.

- So sorry. - No, you're fine.

- Heather. - You're fine.

Heather! Heather! - As soon as you throw it, take off.

- Take off. - Heather! You got it, Heather. Come on.

You got to admire Heather

if for no other reason than she has not given up.

She has not lost faith.

- Yeah! - Ua with their third.

Genie lands a third for Ua.

Oh, my God! - Genie wins it for Ua with one toss.

We're looking for second place.

- There's a second for Tiffany.

Oh.

- You got it. - Got it.

- Tiffany lands a third for Yase. - There you go. One more.

- Come on. Come on. - There is one ball left.

Oh, no!

- There it is! Yase wins reward!

Giving Luvu their first loss of the season.

Hey. Hey, it's not... Hey, hey, Heather. Heather.

Heather. You all right?

I'm so sorry. - Listen, you don't have to apologize to us.

- We win or lose together. - It's fine. This is a reward challenge.

- It's all right. I'm so sorry.

- No. We're gonna go fishing. - You got to get out of that. You got to get out of that.

- I know, but I let you down. - You got to get out of that. No.

We-we all fail sometimes. That's how it works, all right?

You can't win 'em all, all right?

You didn't, you didn't quit.

We still, we still...

You know how hard you tried?

Don't cry. You tried hella hard.

Come on. Get up. We hold our heads up, okay?

- We're Luvu. Let's stand up. We got it. Mama, we love you.

- We love you, Mama. - We got it. Come on. You got it, Heather.

Good job, Heather!

- We love you. You got it.

Good job, Heather. Heather, good job, baby.

- It's not easy. You got nothing to apologize about.

- You went out there and gave it everything you got. - We love you, Mama. We love you.

Right? That's what I'm talking about.

- Good job, dude. - It's all about not giving up. That's what matters.

- Head up. You never gave up. That's what matters.

All right, Heather, a couple of things happened out there.

- One, you struggled.

Two, you never gave up.

And three, when it was over,

everybody here acknowledged your efforts.

So what are you feeling right now?

It's okay. It's okay.

I let myself down, and I don't quit.

And I feel like I let them down.

Danny, can you let yourself down

when you're trying to do something you've never done

and have no expectation to know how to do it?

Absolutely not. The only way you can let yourself down

is if you don't give 100% effort, and she gave it.

And, Heather, I just got to say, for me,

one of the reasons I'm still here,

21 years later,

is because of moments like that.

I love the gameplay of Survivor,

but I really like it when somebody's vulnerable

and lets us watch

- and then is rewarded with love from their competitors. - Mm-hmm.

That's got to make you feel a little better.

It does. It does.

All right, now let's get to the victors.

- Ua, your reward is waiting for you back at camp.

I encourage you to soak up as much as you can.

This guy is an expert.

Grab your stuff, head back, enjoy.

- Good job, guys. - Good job.

Yase, one fish for the tribe. Come grab it.

- Thank you. - You're welcome.

Oh, he's so pretty, or she.

Luvu, got nothing for you.

Grab your stuff, head back to camp.

- Thank you. - Thanks, Jeff.

When you fail at something,

it hurts like hell and you're embarrassed.

But with every failure, you're told

it molds you into who you are.

And it sounds so cliché, but it does.

At 52 years old, I'm already coming out here

with a disadvantage,

but I didn't give up.

I just felt so proud of myself.

This personal victory made me even stronger.

And that's why I loveSurvivor.

Can't you just see it now?

It's like, "Previously on Survivor...

Yase suffered a devastating series of losses."

Yase has been a disaster

in challenges this entire season.

"But with the core remaining four,

they were on a winning streak."

There it is! Yase wins reward!

"Unstoppable."

"Challenge after challenge."

"And since Tiffany is completely motivated by food..."

- Clearly.

The tribe is doing so well

because I'm kicking some ass. I mean...

Did you see the last few challenges we had?

It's not just 'cause of me. I was joking.

It was a group effort.

And in Survivor,

it's such a "me, me, me" game,

at the end of the day,

that the teamwork often gets put aside.

Ah...

Doesn't that look incredible?

God, that's a lot.

We've now learned to work together.

And once you get a little bit of momentum under you,

it just starts to go the right way.

Wait, really?

See them? Oh, my God. There's so many of them.

Where, where, where?

- Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Hundreds of baby turtles.

- Look at them. - See all these little guys moving.

Look at them. Whoa. They're so cute.

Dig deep, little guys.

Give 'em Jeff motivation. Dig deep.

"You got to dig!"

These are the little Yase turtles.

So strong. Like, they're small, but they're so strong, you know?

The Yase tribe, everyone counted us out,

and it looked like there was no way

for us to succeed in this game.

- Oh, it's scaring me. Please don't hurt yourself. - He's taking such a bad route.

- I don't like it. No, no, I don't like it, either.

We just flopped our way

through every hurdle that's come our way.

We've just never given up and keep trying.

And those little turtles, they were doing the same thing.

Come on, little guy. Get out of the hole. You can do it.

- Yes, that way. Good job. - Yay!

Go, guy!

It doesn't even make sense that a turtle that little

should be able to get

from wherever they hatched to the ocean,

and yet they just never, never gave up.

- Bye. Good luck. - Bye.

And that's the story of the Yase tribe, you know?

People counted us out, but we're not out.

Oh, he's so cute. Bye, little guy.

Oh, God.

- Nathan! What are you doing? Oh, my God.

That's not human, dude.

- Wow. That's incredible.

Oh, my God, Nathan. You're 25 feet high.

I love superheroes.

I'm a huge comic book fan.

And our local Fijian Nathan, this dude just, like...

Like Spider-Man or something.

That dude is superhuman.

What?

Bula.

-Bula!

He flipped upside down.

It was like Cirque du Soleil

and the best stripper you've ever seen.

- Oh, ho-ho-ho. That's it.

We were floored.

- What?

And you're gonna use the milk of the coconut, the brown one.

- The brown one. Okay. - For the fish. Oh, delicious.

And how do we catch these fish?

It's going for the low tide.

He is one with nature.

This man is, like, one with the island.

He knows this land. He's lived it.

His parents have lived it. His grandparents have lived it.

I'm gonna show you how to, like, in Fijian way,

we do, like, uh, kokoda.

All right, y'all, we're about to eat three big old fish.

He had so much wisdom,

and I don't know that Survivor's ever been soSurvivor

until season 41.

We have to work very hard for everything.

Best reward to win, hands down.

This is Gucci right here, like, this is a pot of gold.

We struck gold with Nathan.

My body says, "Yes."

My body's like, "Thank you, Nathan."

Beyond good.

The fish was amazing.

I'm happy, and what's funny is,

24 hours earlier, I was being yelled at

by Genie.

Take care of my own fire,

and she's not making us nothing anymore.

And so now I think, "Oh, we don't need her."

Because we got to meet Nathan,

we don't feel discouraged in our surroundings anymore.

Thank you.

Thank you. God bless you.

Bye, Nathan.

You might be the coolest man I've ever met in my life.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah. No, for sure. No, I'm...

The challenge proved

that Luvu is not an unbeatable tribe.

And I felt so bad for Heather.

The poor thing struggled so much,

but to be honest, I'm okay with losing.

To be here on day eight,

and to not have voted, like, I don't even have a torch yet.

Part of me feels restless.

I know that I'm small, that I'm a sweet person,

but I am actually a lion dressed like a lamb.

As much as I wanted to keep this, like, innocent act up,

like, I'm so ready to take off my little lamb costume

and show my teeth a bit more.

Let's turn things up a notch and get some people out.

Sydney cannot keep her emotions cool.

She's very reactive and she's, like, very impulsive.

And I'm realizing, like, that behavior

is what's going to sink the ship as we move forward.

Seeing Sydney react to not being able to make fire.

- Yeah. - It, like, told me a lot.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

This girl is, like, very emotional,

and she gets a bit nasty.

Yeah. You think?

I've always been a little apprehensive of Erika.

Somebody who's that quiet all the time is a little bit sus.

And I know she's a really smart girl.

Her Survivor IQ is high

even though she tries to make it seem like it's low.

- Yeah, I would do it. Yeah. Shh. - Okay.

We have to keep this, like, airtight,

because if, like, anything gets to Sydney,

- then, like, you know how, you know how she reacts. - Yeah. Yeah, right.

If we take a shot and we miss,

- it's gonna be a mess. - We can't. Yeah.

- We have to be able to get it. - It's gonna be a mess.

The thing is, I definitely trust Sydney

much more than I trust Erika.

Erika is sneaky, sneaky, sneaky.

Yeah. Yeah.

So I want to

just cut the head off the snake

before it gets too much of a problem.

I don't want to give her that opportunity

to play the slow beginning game

and then emerge at the end and-and take me out.

Oh.

It makes sense to hear that Erika said my name.

I am like the threat of threats.

Like, I'm savvy as hell.

I'm good looking.

I'm a physical threat.

Exactly.

Wow. Like, what is it about me?

I think they just hate me.

They love to hate me.

They hate me 'cause they ain't me.

- Oh, no worries.

Her thing is, she wants to take out Sydney.

Yeah.

She is definitely going to kill us, uh, come merge.

I have this master plan to get rid of Erika,

and she has zero idea

that she's going to be the vote if we lose the challenge today.

Is it bad if we lose?

- Yes. - Why?

Just think about it long-term.

We can win, and that's great.

We go into a merge with Luvu six.

They're picking us off one by one

'cause that's the easy vote.

We need to take control of something, bro.

And if we don't make this move now, we could be screwed,

but... just throwing it out there.

Deshawn really, really wants

to throw the challenge and get Erika out,

which makes sense to me, but

as a professional athlete, this would be a sin.

But I want to compete and I want to win.

Throwing the challenge-- that goes

against everything that I've ever worked for.

I'm not sure if I can do it.

Come on in.

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

- Yes. - First things first. I got to take back the idols.

- Thank you, Deshawn. - Yes, sir.

- Thanks, Tiffany. - You're welcome.

Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge,

you're going to race through the water,

collecting three bags of logs along the way.

You're going to then push those logs through a tunnel,

releasing a key at the other end.

You will use the key to release three rings and attempt

to land those three rings on a series of targets.

First two tribes to finish win immunity,

will live to see day ten.

Losers-- Tribal Council where somebody goes home,

and I'll take your flint.

Luvu, you have two extra people. Who are you going to sit out?

Erika and Naseer sat out the last one. They must participate.

- We'll do it. - Not like pushing... - Sydney and Heather,

take a spot on the sit-out bench.

Everybody else, get a minute to strategize,

and we'll get started.

All right, here we go.

For immunity.

Survivors ready.

Go.

You got to move as a group.

You're getting to that first bag of logs.

You got to untie them,

carry them and move on to the next bag.

Xander crawling up quickly for Yase.

You've got to stay together as a group.

Ua has their bag. They're in the water moving on.

- Luvu has their first bag. Come on, Luvu.

Yase has their first bag.

- Go! Luvu struggling

- to get to their second bag. Go.

Ua moving together nicely. They're to their bag.

Yase struggling in the water. You've got

to get to your second station.

- Come on. Go, go, go. - Go, go. - Luvu has their second bag.

Ua has their second bag.

It is Ua and Luvu side-by-side.

Yase in last place, a spot

they are way too familiar with this season.

Erika back up for Luvu, Shan back up for Ua.

Yase finally has their second bag.

Good job, Erika! - Come. Come on.

Luvu has their third bag.

- They're heading in. Good job, Luvu!

Ua has their third bag!

So, me and Deshawn-- we decide

that we're going to throw the challenge.

And I look back, and I see Deshawn,

and he's moving slow as snail's pace.

I am trying my hardest

to throw this challenge. Like,

I'm walking in the water. Like, I'm, like,

-doggy-paddling. - Go! Go!

Naseer is like, "Go!

Go!" And I'm like,

"Bro, I don't want to go right now."

Go!

Day nine taking its toll.

- Nothing is easy on Survivor.

Come on, Deshawn!

Yase finally has their third bag.

Yeah.

Very heavy bags. - Let's go.

Yes! - Now you've got to untie all the logs.

- Come on! Go! So, I'm just trying

to, like, swim as slow as possible, and I look back,

and freaking yellow are still in the water.

And I'm just like, "Dude,

what can you guys do right?" Like,

even when I'm trying to throw the challenge,

you guys still can't win.

Evvie's swimming the wrong way.

"A" for effort.

Maybe a B-minus for direction.

So I get to the knots, right, and this is like

the point where I'm just desperate.

And I just start retying knots. Like, literally, I'm just

sitting there tying, tying, tying. I might have retied,

like, three or four or more knots.

And I'm just like, "Damn.

I hope they don't see me."

Ua now working. - Get to the box.

Here comes Yase. Keep digging, Yase.

Luvu still working on their logs,

like they're on a picnic,

taking a lot of time.

You got to get all those logs out

before you can start pushing.

- All right, assembly line, let's go. - Luvu,

you're good. Start the assembly line.

- Got you. - One, two, three, go!

That's how you do it.

One, two, three. Go!

Got to get all these pieces of wood out of this tunnel.

- Then you grab the key. - One, two, three. Go!

Here comes Ricard.

- Let's go, Ua! Come on!

Yase still in this.

You've been in last before.

You know what it's like, and you know how to pull it out.

One, two, three! Go!

- One, two, three. Go!

- Luvu getting closer and closer to the end. - Go!

- Go! I'm, like, trying my hardest

-not to push these blocks. - One, two, three. Go!

But Naseer is an animal at this point.

He's just, "One, two."

Go!

Like, goodness.

- One, two. Go! - That's it, Luvu.

- You're good. Yeah, you're good.

Ua getting closer but starting

to slow down, and that's opening

the door for Yase to catch up.

You got it. Go, go, go.

It's now Xander

using his chest to push 'em through.

Now Luvu is looking for a key. There is one key

in one of those pieces of wood.

- There's blocks behind... I'm hoping and praying

that I'll find this freaking key in this block,

'cause I'm gonna toss this block so far away.

- Come on. - You got it?

They've got the key. - Go, I got it.

Freaking Erika finds the key.

Unlock the rings.

- Ua-- one more log will do it.

You're good, Ua. One more for Yase.

- You're good, Yase. Let's go. Go. Come on.

Let's go, Deshawn!

So I step up and do some rings.

I'm like, "Yes, this is my prime opportunity

to freaking throw the challenge."

Got it. You got it.

Xander now has the key.

- You got it. - Look at this.

Yase quickly found their key.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Here comes Shan.

She's got her key for Ua.

- You got it... - Can I go?

Tiffany's up.

And Tiffany lands the first one.

- It is Yase now in the lead. - Yes!

- Yeah. JD sticks one for Ua.

Deshawn for Luvu.

- Just short. - Come on, Liana.

- Gonna be Liana. - Yes!

- Liana with her first toss. - Yes, Liana.

Yase's one ring away from winning this.

You got it, Liana, just like you did

- the first time. - Just short.

JD trying to tie it up.

- Just misses. Come on, JD!

Let me know if you want to switch.

- Ah. Hold on. Deshawn short again.

Going to take more than that.

Here comes Naseer.

So I'm trying to drag that part.

That didn't last long because Naseer run up

at the freaking ring toss.

Like, really? Of course Naseer would do this.

- Yes! - Oh!

Naseer snags one for Luvu. - Ah! Go, Naseer!

Come on, guys. Let's go.

Luvu has one now. - Oh!

Naseer with a second one

- for Luvu. - Yes, Naseer, yes!

Luvu with two, Yase with two.

- Naseer could win this. - So close.

Just a little bit harder.

- Yes. Naseer just got hot

and could win it for Luvu right here.

- Oh! - Just short.

- Xander could win it. Take your time. Take your time.

- There you go. - Yes!

Xander does it for Yase!

We're looking for one more.

- Oh, my goodness. - Yes!

It is now Ua and Luvu.

- Ua with one, Luvu with two. - Ah.

Come on.

JD with his second. We are tied. Here it is.

JD versus Naseer.

- On and off again.

- That was in and out. - It's got to stick. JD.

On and off. Naseer. On and off.

- Unbelievable.

- Don't look at it. - Both guys so close.

Aah!

- Naseer wins it for Luvu!

- Yeah. Sending Ua

- to Tribal Council. - I'm sorry, guys.

Sorry, guys.

The win very much felt like a loss to me.

Naseer was just the man at that challenge.

He-he had his moment.

And I'm proud of him because Naseer is a good guy.

He deserves the moment.

I just didn't want that moment to be at that challenge.

Yase, congratulations.

- Nice to have the big idol.

Yeah.

No Tribal, nobody going home.

Luvu, no Tribal Council, tribe stays tight

- at six. - Thanks, Jeff.

Grab your stuff, head out.

Yase, grab your stuff, head back to camp.

Enjoy the night off.

Ua, head back to camp. I'm gonna keep your flint.

See you tonight at Tribal.

Genie might be the one on the outside,

but JD wants to be the superstar.

He's so concerned about looking like Allen Iverson. He's like,

"Money!" and it doesn't land.

We're like, "There's no money there.

"You should have shouted out 'Tribal!'

Because that's where we ended up."

It's me, dude. It's got to be me.

- I mean, the original... - They blindsided me.

They didn't want to tell me what was going on.

Shan was in on it.

Ricard is a mastermind.

This is what I'm thinking.

- I'm gonna throw that die. - Yeah.

And if you can just write down "Ricard."

The second go-to name would be him.

That's-that's the only game plan I have.

Are you 100% rolling your die?

I think so. I don't want a souvenir.

I'm gonna play that.

It's like a Hail Mary.

I'm thinking about playing the Shot in the Dark.

However, if you roll the die, you cannot even vote.

So that is very risky.

I'm terrified tonight. I would probably

be crying right now

if I didn't already lose all of my liquids through sweat.

- I'm up against the wall. - Yeah, I know.

I feel like I'm in the same spot.

It could be either of us who...

- And I don't want to roll my die, you know? - Yeah.

- You know... - That's a balls-to-the-wall move.

I'm lying to Genie.

I had to convince her that

I'm so dedicated to her so she doesn't roll her die.

If she rolls her die and gets safety,

I could be going home. My mindset is,

"Genie, Genie, Genie, Genie, Genie.

I have to get rid of Genie."

I trust you, and

I trust Shan, 'cause we're a three.

But, like, Genie wants me to put a vote on you.

I'm not doing that. That's freaking stupid.

I need you and Shan.

Look at Miss Sneaky Genie.

That's the thing. - Ricard?

- Yeah. - No, Genie. I think we're...

- No? - Okay.

I think you can trust...

Ricard more than you could trust JD.

Bottom line-- Ricard's been my number one since day one.

Now Genie wants to vote Ricard, so now my work is

having her think that JD is the target

to convince Genie not to roll her dice

'cause we're voting out Genie.

I'm just afraid I'm gonna get blindsided.

But all I can give you is my word.

- Okay. - And I'm-I'm trusting Ricard, too.

- All right. - But JD is not trustworthy.

He's not stable.

I'm also

deeply concerned that if Genie doesn't feel comfortable,

Genie could team up with JD because JD has the extra vote.

Then we could go to a tie,

or a blindside could potentially be pulled off.

I've got to... I've got to figure that out.

I've got to address that.

I'm gonna act paranoid. I'm gonna say to him, "JD,

"I feel like you're working with Genie.

"The only way I'm willing to work with you

"is if you give me your advantage

"and we vote Genie because I feel like

you're gonna use that against me with Genie."

What I'm trying to get is that advantage.

It wouldn't matter if you had that vote. It wouldn't matter.

I think you're working a blindside with Genie on me.

Why?

I don't know. I just get that feeling.

I promise you, that's not what hap... what's happening.

For someone who plays so well, plays so well--

she's a very good player--

she freaks out so easily.

- I don't... I... Her name has not even been in the mix.

You're not gonna play me, right?

I'm not playing you, Shan.

Shan, you're getting a little, like...

You're not voting me tonight that you're not gonna...

- I'm not. - So you're not gonna use your advantage?

- That'd be dumb if I used it. - So can you leave it here?

I'm not... Like, what if something pops off at Tribal,

- and I need to use it? - I'm not... I'm not not...

I'm not... I'm taking you with me, though, unless you're not

- taking me. - I am.

So then why... so then...

You should always bring your advantages to Tribal, though.

I don't want to be that dummy

who leaves their advantage back at camp.

I came to contribute

to the evolution of the game,

not become one of the dummies who ruins it.

You can get it tomorrow, 'cause we'll all still be here.

All I'm asking is for a token of trust.

If that... if that will make you trust me, I'll do it.

You know, again, like, when I'm up to something

that I probably shouldn't be doing,

I hum this song.

You can kind of see in her eyes

that she's genuine about actually thinking that

I'm gonna blindside her, and me giving her that vote

showed her, "I trust you. I'm giving you this."

Thank you... for trusting me, trusting you.

I've done all

I can do to convince her I'm with her,

and once I get that extra vote back, it's not going anywhere.

I promise. This time for real.

Number one-- how the heck did that just happen?

Number two-- I feel like I have

some power in my pocket that I didn't actually have

to go off to an island to get.

Number three-- I'm thinking,

"Oh, my goodness, what if I just

"keep the extra vote for myself and

vote out JD?"

It's in my back pocket.

That would be a big move to get

his extra vote for good.

I might never get this opportunity again, but JD

has become family to me. He's like a little brother,

and I love him.

There we go.

Ah, good job.

And I don't want to be a villain,

but I-I do want to be an assassin.

With Genie, you know, she's hurt.

We blindsided her with Brad.

I just feel she doesn't really trust me.

So this is a hard vote. I feel like tonight I'm holding

both of their lives in my hand.

And so, I go to my song in my head.

Wow, Genie.

Your face, your body language.

I'm exhausted. I...

I'm-I'm playing from the bottom.

It's not a good day for me.

This is clearly a turning point for this tribe.

I can feel it. I felt it at the challenge when you lost.

So, Ricard, help the audience

understand what these moments really feel like.

It's so weird, going from audience member

to now being in this seat.

You know, you want to pick off the people

that you hate when you're watching them on the screen.

But with every vote out, it genuinely hurts our feelings.

Yeah, we're bonding so that

we can survive the jungle.

Like, we're close, we're farting on each other,

we're burping on each other, and everybody does it.

- I don't care. - I didn't do that.

Everybody lets a little gas go at night.

- I hear it, okay, so...

You know, and then it just juxtaposes the reality of, like,

your life ends here, like, this is the end of the road.

- So it's hard. And, JD,

when you're watching at home, it's easy.

You're sitting on your sofa, bag of chips. You're like,

"I'd cut him, no problem.

Wouldn't have any emotion at all."

Then you get out here-- to Shan's point-- not so easy.

Yeah. On the other hand,

leaning more on strategy, what the viewer has

- that we don't all have is information. - There you go.

They know everything that's going on-- who's lying to who--

and that's why I'm sitting on the couch, being like,

"Malcolm, what are you doing, bro?

- Like, they're coming for you."

So, Genie, let's get back to you.

You walk in, and the first thing you say is,

"I'm playing from the bottom."

I mean, the last Tribal, I was just as blindsided as-as Brad.

So, you know you're on the bottom of the tribe.

Because you didn't have the information.

I didn't have the information,

and nobody wanted to give it to me.

And-and... and I was really thinking

we were gonna win that immunity challenge

because we got a lot of energy from that.

The fish and-and all these things that we were taught

by the awesome Nathan. You know, oh, my God, that guy is amazing.

And then this happens, and now I'm scrambling.

I mean, people are making me promises,

but how am I supposed to really believe them?

- You know what I mean? Like... - It's tough.

- Uh, yeah, it's freaking tough. - So, Ricard,

with four people, it's two-two or three-one.

And two-two would mean

that there are two pairs that are locked in.

- Is that a possibility? - I think it is a possibility.

I hope that's not the case. I believe

that's not the case, but anything is possible.

I don't believe it, Jeff. It's gonna be three-one on me.

I think they're just trying to appease me right now

or whatever, so I don't roll this Shot in the Dark.

It's another new element to the game

- that can cause a lot of havoc. - Absolutely. Exactly.

This is the only thing I have that-that I feel like I can take

- in my own hands. - I respect that play.

Just keep in mind, when you use your Shot in the Dark,

you lose your vote,

and that potentially could be messing up somebody

who is willing to work with you.

Just make sure we all do what we said

we were going to do.

Wow.

That is a complicated statement JD just said.

Does that change how you feel,

or would you reveal it if it did?

I'll probably make that decision when I'm in there.

JD, I can feel the tension.

- Yeah. - Even though I've seen you at Tribal

- enough, tonight is different. Yeah.

I felt like I had to do scrambling,

and I think Ricard felt like he had to do some scrambling.

My name's been written down.

- Genie. - Yeah, my name's been written down, Genie.

You know, so... just as much as I don't want to go home,

these three people don't want

- to go home, either. - Nobody wants to go home.

So, Shan, what's the worst part of going home?

Not getting to the place in the game where you wanted to.

You know, as much as we're all visualizing

sitting in the final three,

grabbing that check from you, um,

17 people are just not going to get that.

17 people are going to be disappointed.

If you get there, you've killed a lot of dreams,

and if you don't, then you've killed your own.

And the worst part of going home

for me would be this idea that I built up in my head,

growing up, that I was going to be some amazing Survivor player.

And I'll-I'll be honest. I have not played the game

that I imagined myself playing.

I checked off a lot of boxes,

but the list is so long,

there's so many boxes that I still want to check.

And, JD, regardless, how long you last, you don't really

know what this journey is going to be about

- until you get some perspective. - Yeah.

I'm just not ready for the perspective yet.

I'm not ready to see the perspective.

I need to... I need to do some more stuff out here.

Then I'll reflect.

In other words, "Probst, enough with the therapy."

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, Genie,

we started with you. Let's end with you.

If it's you tonight, what will you miss?

I mean, I'm going to miss everything about this, but...

I have to say, I think I'm actually gonna...

I'm gonna miss these guys.

Oh, Genie.

Does the emotion surprise you?

I mean, not really.

It's just, you know, you...

We're just... we're just beaten down to, like, our bare bones

and just the emotions.

It just comes out at any time, so...

I mean, a lot of it is exhaustion,

and a lot of it is because I truly believe we bonded.

This game is hard, and we...

- It's not supposed to be easy. - Oh.

'Cause nothing good ever is.

And with that, it is time to vote.

Ricard, you're up.

Sorry.

I'll go tally the votes.

If anybody has an advantage

or hidden immunity idol and you want to play it,

now would be the time to do so.

Okay, I'll read the votes.

First vote-- Genie.

JD. We're tied. One vote-- Genie, one vote-- JD.

JD. Two votes-- JD.

Fifth person voted out of Survivor 41-- JD.

That's three. You need to bring me your torch.

- I love you, JD. - I love you.

- All right. - It's all love.

All right, Jeff.

- JD. - Yeah.

The tribe has spoken.

Time for you to go.

- You rock. - Go, JD.

Grab your torches. Head back to camp. Good night.

Right now, at this moment, we got to fend

for ourselves, so sure enough,

I looked there, and I was like,

"What?!"

I'm absolutely nervous that the women

will have more numbers than us.

Whatever.

With Xander-- I'm on Xan.

They played me, man. Like, good on them. Like, damn.

That was a good blindside.

Shan got my extra vote, but I was trying to play ballsy.

I was trying to play big.

I was trying to play to win the game.

And to be out of the game

that I've dreamt of playing my entire life sucks.

It sucks so bad.

At least my hair looks cool.
