My god! Yeah!

Hey, hey, hey, let's go!

Previously on survivor

I'm just letting you know.

- Thank you for letting me know. - Yeah.

I think I might be a little bit

of a mastermind right now, you know?

Rome just talks, talks, talks,

and it's crap, crap, crap.

Rome is now, in case anybody wants to know,

my number one hit.

First opportunity, Rome's outie.

Everybody here would be very happy

voting Rome tonight.

I would love it if there was a second name.

- Yeah. - Are you guys okay with Andy?

If it's Andy, it's Andy.

Yeah.

Andy.

Sixth person voted out of survivor 47: Rome.

The tribe has spoken.

Yes, congrats.

Yay.

Right now, I am feeling

so, so, so, so good about what happened at tribal council.

Rome, my biggest source

of paranoia and stress in this game,

was collectively voted out.

And not only is the amulet advantage

out of my hands.

It was also played on me

so that I didn't even have a chance of going home.

- Congrats. All right? - Congrats.

But beyond that, sol

is the only known person who wrote Andy's name down,

and he needs to do some damage control, because

obviously, Andy's gonna be upset with that.

I did not want to do that.

I promise you with all my heart,

- I did not want to do that, okay? - Yeah.

I genuinely believed Rome had an idol.

- Right. - I really did.

- Okay? - Yes.

And if he puts my name down...

- And everyone is on Rome... - Yeah. - I'm gone.

Okay, so you're very confident - yeah.

That he has an idol and he's gonna play it.

Right.

That means you're very confident that you're sending me home.

Well... Of everyone on god's green earth,

- right. - You chose me.

Right.

- Why? - Okay.

Me voting for Andy gives me some work to do.

I knew there was a chance that Andy would still be here,

but I had to protect myself, so now

I know I have to give up some things

to earn his trust back, and, I have no problem with that.

I didn't want to do it, Andy,

but they were all coming back to me,

and were like, "hey, Rome wants you."

I was like, "okay, fine, but we have to have a backup."

Okay. Okay.

- So that's when I was like... - Who-who, exactly?

It was Sam.

Sam is the one who said

that you're the backup, okay?

I did a lot of work to get out of gato alive and have

a decently strong alliance with Sam and Sierra,

but I feel like,

as time has gone on, little things have started

to not add up in terms of how they're moving in this game.

And when sol tells me that they are using me

as a sacrificial lamb, I wasn't shocked.

I wasn't that surprised, but I was, you know, sort of

woken up, and things became very clear to me.

Based off what you're telling me, - yeah.

I need significant help from real allies.

So, I want some protection from this in the future.

And what I want is an alliance - yeah.

Where people are not gonna be throwing my name

as a backup option.

- Do you want to be a part of that? - Absolutely.

- You... - The next, like, three, four moves,

you need to make are just... Need to be exactly how I expect.

- Okay, man. - And we get rid of gata.

You got it, man. My man.

After this vote, I realize

if I'm gonna survive the second half of this game, like,

I need to flip the switch.

I need to take control and have authorship

over how the rest of this game is gonna go for me.

And right now, that means I should just gun

for my gata tribe mates, because

if they're gonna come for me,

I need to get them first.

Whatever you need, Sierra.

Do you want my shot in the dark?

I can give you my shot in the dark.

I mean, I would love that.

I'm so thankful for you.

- Yeah, man. I got you. - Let's go.

- You know I got you. - Yeah, I do.

It was Sam.

Sam is the one who said that you're the backup.

Last night really got my head spinning

because I really feel like I invested

in those relationships with Sam and Sierra

on the early days of gata.

But I'm realizing that I am a third wheel

and ultimately, very expendable.

Not even just at the endgame, but even now.

And so, I'm reevaluating my game

coming into this merged tribe.

I feel like I have an opportunity

to find, really, sort of my people

that I can really roll with for the long term in this game.

And, long story short.

I want to swing away from gata.

Did you have an okay sleep?

I slept okay.

Tribal council was interesting, obviously.

I know.

My god. How are you feeling?

I really just need to know how to go forward, like...

Last night, my number one went home, and I'm, like

I'm not taking a second to mourn it.

"All I'm thinking is," okay,

I'm in the market for a new ally,"

and top of my list is Andy.

We need to find a way to, like,

not just be the singles, you know,

- because the singles, no one's afraid of. - Yes.

- Yeah, let's do something about it. - Yeah.

Like, let's take the game into our own hands.

I love that.

After the first immunity challenge,

Andy had what I can only describe

as a moment of, like, true, raw, vulnerable panic.

But I really felt for him in that moment,

and he's still here.

I think, probably, because people were using him

to further their agendas, but now he has an agenda

and I have an agenda, and if we can

work together, we can take back a little bit

more power at this stage in the game.

Okay, so if there's 12 of us, we need seven.

So, if you and I always have,

like, open conversations, we can kind of figure out

what's going on and who's telling what to who.

You know what I mean? Like... I have a vision.

I have a vision for how this game could go for us.

- Okay. - And I like it.

Is it good? Is it a good vision?

- Yeah, it's a good vision. - Yeah.

It could be, like, a big sneak attack

- in this game. - Yeah.

That'll serve us both so well.

- Yeah. - That would be so good.

In order to change my fate,

here's what I'm missing right now:

A real number one in this game.

I've worked closely with a few people.

I've worked closely

with Sam, but that's drifting away.

And until now,

Genevieve is someone I didn't know left from right.

I didn't really know where she stood.

I didn't know what her game plan was.

But I'm kind of seeing her, really,

as a pretty good opportunity for me

to pick up that one person who also doesn't have a number one.

- I'm excited for what we could do. - Yeah.

The possibilities.

Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

Wait, sue. They told me

I can't believe you don't play pickleball.

I'm, like... Being a tennis player.

I have played it, but it's not...

- It's not? - I play racquetball every day.

- Yeah, so that's... - So, and then...

She needs her adrenaline high.

This morning, we're just getting our buffs,

we're just officially making it into the merge.

And it's, like, there's been so much going on at once.

Like, we're trying to, like, all chill at camp.

And then, of course,

Genevieve comes about, and she's like

I have tree mail.

In survivor,

you can't let your guard down, and it's, like,

actually the most exciting part, but also terrifying.

"A nerve-racking situation,

"the vote looming overhead.

"Lose your focus and lose this test,

tonight, your game just might be dead."

Nice.

So at this point, I'm, like, really

trying to look ahead, and I'm really trying

to see who I'm clicking with.

Got to get out of this blazer before we friggin'

- I love that you have a blazer. - My god.

Right now, I feel really good about the tuku women.

I feel really good

about, I mean, most of the women in this game, honestly.

I think that, ideally,

I'm going to find six to eight of these people

that I really feel like can work together,

and we can start kind of

picking off "the other side," quote, unquote,

you know, whoever that may be.

Like, we all...

Exactly.

- Dude, that'd be... sick. - Yes.

I would love...

And we have the power to do it, so let's do it.

In the survivor lexicon, I feel like

the all-girls alliance is almost, like,

mythologized at this point.

It's been done before.

We've seen the black widow brigade

pull off some of the best moves in this show.

Since then, it gets snubbed before it even

gets a chance to kick off and start.

But the way that I would dream to play this game

is to form an all-women's alliance and eat all the men.

That's, I mean, just an ideal-case scenario for me.

And I really like the ladies here,

and I think that we could all get on the same page.

So, who are... who are some prospects? Like...

My god, I... Like, me, personally... I'm sorry.

Gabe is a threat.

There are more

women than there are men in this post-merge sequence.

But for me, I have to really start

to weigh the options of if I want

to continue to stay in this tuku five

or if I want to completely flip ship

and try to form genuine connections

and a genuine alliance on the other side, because

I think that this is a perfect opportunity to get Gabe out.

I've been wanting Gabe out since the beginning.

I feel like I cannot trust this man.

But no matter what, I want people to see me

as an individualized player, and that

I can make my own moves on my own time, in my own way.

Come on in!

Day 13, the merged tribe of survivor 47.

So, Andy,

the last tribal council, you voted out Rome.

It wasn't unanimous, but it was the vast majority.

You've got the 12 people

that you want to move forward with

- and battle against. - Yeah.

So now how does the game change

as we head into the next challenge?

It's just gonna get a lot tougher.

I feel like we got into the same beach,

and one person sort of

sunk their own game, immediately.

And that's a really good consensus-builder.

That built this community.

But, now, it-it just starts.

It gets that much more dangerous.

We don't know who the next target is.

We have to play survivor

and see what shakes out tonight.

All right. Well, let's get back into the game, then.

First things first. Kyle, got to take it back.

Yes, sir. Thank you.

Thank you.

- You're holding onto that. - Yeah.

Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.

For today's challenge, you're gonna need balance,

concentration and endurance.

Here's how it works.

You're gonna stand on a narrow beam

while balancing a ball at the end of a very long pole

while holding the pole above your head.

At regular intervals, you're gonna

move farther down the beam,

making it more difficult to balance and concentrate.

And the longer you're in the challenge,

more difficult to keep that pole above your head.

If at any point you fall off or your ball drops,

you're out.

So, now that you have the community you want,

let's divide that community

and pit you against each other.

Here's how it's gonna work today.

We're gonna randomly divide into two groups of six.

The one person who lasts the longest

for the entire challenge wins,

for their group, immunity.

- My god. - Everybody on that team

will be safe tonight at tribal council.

You will watch tribal council but you won't cast a vote,

and you can't have a vote cast against you.

You are safe. You will see

- day 14 of survivor 47. - Wow.

The person who lasts the longest for the losing group

earns individual immunity, and you will need it,

because that group is going to tribal council,

where somebody will be

the seventh person voted out of survivor 47.

And as a penalty for being voted out,

you won't even make the jury.

In addition,

- you're playing for reward. - All right.

Want to know what you're playing for?

The winning six will go back to camp and enjoy

an afternoon of baby back ribs.

- My god. - No!

- No. - Potato salad.

- Potato salad. Potato salad. - Yes.

- Potato salad. - Corn on the cob.

No. Shut up.

Beer and soft drinks.

- My god. - My god.

Losers, nothing but a date with me tonight at tribal council.

Big enough stakes?

All right, gonna do a rock draw.

- My gosh. - Always twisting, Jeff.

- Always twisting us up. - All right, take a rock. Don't look at it.

You know I love this part.

Which color are you gonna get?

Which color do you want?

Who else is gonna have the same color?

Who are you gonna be competing with?

Who you gonna be competing against?

Let's see what we have.

Everybody, put out your palms,

and let's reveal.

If you are blue, come right over here on my left.

- Yellow, the far end. - Okay.

Feel like we got some endurance in here today.

All right, so let's see how this worked out.

We have Genevieve, Sierra, teeny, sol,

Andy and Sam.

Sam, what do you make about this draw?

Yeah, I mean, it's three gata, three lavo,

and I think this is now a team of six because

if one of us can clutch up for the other five, we're all safe.

So, I'm trying not to think too much about the dynamics

and trying to focus on how can I make sure

that all six of us, feel good tonight.

All right, the other six.

We have Rachel, Caroline, sue, tiyana, Gabe

- and Kyle. - Wow.

Tell me, sue. You've got your hands out.

We have our whole tuku tribe.

- Plus me. - Plus Rachel.

Rachel. On one hand,

if you lose, things, on paper, might not look good.

- Yeah. Sure. - Five versus one.

But we're in the merge. Everybody's wearing purple.

Yeah. I mean, there are other dynamics in play here.

And if worse comes to worse,

and we're the group going, like,

I'll-I'll do everything I can to stay safe.

I am terrified.

I look down the line and see

the entirety of the tuku tribe and me.

So, I need to win today

or I'm leaving the fate of my game

in the hands of five tuku members.

I cannot believe that this is happening.

All right.

Here we go.

Everybody has their Poles above their head.

Balls are balanced.

This challenge is on.

Everything that you are focused on right now

is about one thing:

Balancing that ball.

Do not let it drop.

The stakes are big.

The person who lasts the longest overall

wins, for their group, immunity and food.

The person who lasts the longest

for the losing group earns for themselves

individual immunity, which you will need, because

the losing group is going to tribal council.

Andy drops. Set your pole down.

Take a spot on the bench.

My god.

Rachel's ball on the move.

Rachel cannot survive the first round.

Set your pole down, take a spot on the bench.

Just like that, we are down to five

in each group.

Now we're gonna move to the next section,

and it's a live transition.

You have 15 seconds to do it.

Starting now.

You got to have both feet in that next section of beam,

the wood section that isn't painted.

Now, with everything else you're doing, you've got to move.

Sierra can't do it. Sierra's out.

Tiyana drops. She's out.

Genevieve, you're good.

Gabe, you're good.

Everybody's good.

Back to concentrating.

We're down now to four on yellow

and four on blue, just like that.

You are earning it every single day on survivor.

Tribal council tonight.

You don't know who you can trust, who you can't.

Person voted out tonight will have no say

in how this game plays out, won't make the jury.

All that work, you make the merge,

but you're one day short.

One tribal council, and it's over.

Sol drops. Sol takes a spot on the bench.

We're down to three for yellow.

Remember, all it takes is one person in your group

to outlast everybody else, and you are safe.

Day 13, survivor 47.

This is it, right here.

This is the only thing you care about right now, nothing else.

All right, start making your move to the next section.

Tiny steps.

You got time.

Sam, you're good.

Teeny, you're good.

Genevieve, you're good.

Gabe, you're good.

Caroline, good.

- Kyle, good. - Thank you.

Shoot.

Sue drops. She's out.

And we're down to three on three.

It is a showdown right now.

Sam, teeny, Genevieve taking on

Gabe, Caroline and Kyle.

Comes down to one person.

Who can last the longest?

Keep concentrating.

Check in on your ball.

Little movement with Sam, but a nice recovery.

Nice.

You are vying for immunity

for your yourself and, potentially, immunity

for everybody else on your team.

You want to be a hero, here is a moment.

- Nice job, teeny. - Big food reward,

security tonight. It will be worth it.

Yeah.

This is where you got to get into that tank.

You've got a little gas in there. You know you do.

Caroline really shaking, but still in it.

Nice recovery.

All right, here we go.

Let's move to that next section.

I will tell you when you're good.

Everybody start making your move

down the beam. This is a live transition

to the last section.

Gabe can't do it. He's out.

Caroline, you're good.

Caroline drops. She's out.

Genevieve, you're good.

- Sam, you're good. - Keep going, Kyle.

- Good job, Kyle. - Kyle's ball is on the move.

Sam drops. He's out.

Kyle trying to hang on.

Teeny fighting to hang in there.

Genevieve fighting to hang in there.

No.

Kyle's out. That's it. It is over.

Just like that.

Teeny, Genevieve, you don't have

to compete anymore.

Kyle's earned individual immunity.

It doesn't matter on yellow.

The entire group has immunity.

Wow.

My god, I didn't think I'd last.

Good news for Genevieve, teeny, Sierra,

Andy, sol and Sam.

Group immunity, no need for individual immunity.

Nobody from your group going home.

You will go to tribal council tonight.

You will watch tribal council.

You will not cast a vote,

and nobody can cast a vote for you.

But for now, the six of you are going back to camp.

Baby back ribs, potato salad, corn on the cob,

beer and soft drinks.

- Yes. - On the other side, Kyle, come on over.

For the second straight time,

individual immunity is yours.

Well, you're still struggling.

- Man, that's no joke right there. - Yeah?

That-that messes with a guy.

- Good job, Kyle. - Kyle,

for the second straight time this season,

individual immunity is yours. That means you are safe tonight,

cannot be voted out of this game.

- Thank you, sir. - You're welcome.

Have a spot back with your group.

All right, for the six of you... Gabe, sue,

Caroline, tiyana, Rachel and Kyle

you are not going back to your tribe camp.

You're gonna go to the old lavo camp,

where you will spend the afternoon

with no food, nothing but time to figure out

what's gonna happen tonight at tribal council.

You'll go to tribal council directly from that camp.

Tonight, the seventh person

voted out will not make the jury.

Biggest stakes so far in this season.

Grab your stuff, head out. See you tonight at tribal.

- Thank you. - Thanks, Jeff.

We're going to tribal.

And even though I was, like,

trying to herd cats with this alliance at tuku sometimes,

we have a great contingency plan

because Rachel's the only person who wasn't on the tuku tribe.

We have an easy vote out

with Rachel, in my opinion.

However, the easy vote might not be a smart vote,

and I want to make a smart move.

- Let's go. - My god.

Holy cow.

Potato salad looks like the best thing I've ever seen in my life.

- Who wants a beer? - Yes, please! -I would love a beer.

Today was another fantastic day in Fiji because

I surprised myself and maybe everybody else

and helped win the challenge for the yellow group

which included safety for all six of us.

It included food for all six of us, and we all

have the certainty knowing that we made the jury.

So, today was, like, chef's kiss, perfect day.

This looks like the best potato salad I've ever seen.

- More ribs? -Please. - Yeah.

I feel like I'm not even taking the...

The proper amount of time to, like

- I know. - Appreciate the fact

- that we are all safe tonight. - My god.

- We make it to... - We made the journey.

No matter what happens, we are here

to vote for the winner.

I want to know what's happening.

I want to know what's going on.

- We're gonna watch it. - Are we watching

or, like, participating?

We're watching.

- Really? - Only watching, not talking, yeah.

Yeah.

- Poor Rachel. - I know. Can we talk about

Rachel being the only one?

- I think she's in trouble. - I think... - Really?

My former gata members

and I get to bond with the former

lavo members, a-and really kind of solidify

some trust and common happiness

and joy with sol, teeny and Genevieve.

But then, I realized,

my gata girl Rachel's over there with the losing group.

She's sitting there with five tukus,

the entire tribe.

She's the odd woman out. Like,

if things hold to form,

she's just getting picked off tonight

and there's nothing that I can do to save her.

The fact that that tuku group is...

Five strong is scary.

So, if it is Rachel tonight and Rachel goes,

I would like to see this six

- vote together in the next... - Yeah.

- Truly. - Thing.

I know.

I think we need to knock off some of those tukus,

- especially if there's five of 'em. - Yeah, we would.

- If they stay strong tonight. - I agree.

Because there was a triple amulet played

at the last tribal council, which acted as a full idol,

I think it's possible that there could be some sort of idol

or advantage hidden, which would be massively important.

And if anyone were to find it, then it could change everything.

I think someone's gonna find an idol.

I think it's gonna be a crazy tribal.

My gut is just on the ground.

This is worst-case scenario.

There's just nothing you can do in certain situations

if you draw the wrong-colored rock,

and you just get put between a literal rock and a hard place.

You can always hope that there's divisions and cracks

within original tribes, but you can't look

at five tuku members and one gata member

and not think, "well, that's easy."

Look, guys, I know it's a pretty

precarious situation for me.

So, if you guys want your time, I will give it to you,

but I'd also appreciate everybody else's time.

Of course. Yup.

Rachel was somebody who has been perceived

as a very big threat in this game early on.

She's very personable, she's very charismatic.

She's also very smart.

So to have her in this vulnerable of a position

is very advantageous

for everybody in season 47 right now.

Yeah.

Okay.

The way that rock draw at the challenge played out

was also perfect for tuku

because it's one more tribal

that all five of us get to survive.

All these people are in this game

are tools for me to use,

and having this tuku majority survive

as long as it can is a very valuable tool.

Yeah.

The thing is, though,

that means when Rachel leaves, they have six now,

with three lavos, three gatos.

They're gonna come after one of us.

From the outside looking in,

Rachel is the obvious vote. It's super easy.

However, I know with my whole frigging heart

that if we go back to our camp

with five strong of tuku,

we are going to be picked off

because we don't have the majority

and we totally blew our cover.

We technically lied to everyone else

about how close we were.

So, not only are we really, really strong, but we're liars.

What are we supposed to do with that?

This kind of seems like the perfect opportunity

to get Gabe out.

- Yeah, it is a perfect opportunity for it. - Yeah.

"Right away, I kind of was like, "Rachel, you're doomed.

No doubt about it."

But then I realized it doesn't have to be Rachel.

This could be the prime opportunity to get rid of Gabe.

There's a very good chance that it could stick.

You have a better connection with Rachel than I do.

- Do you think you could pitch it to her? - Okay. Caroline?

So, we need Rachel to be all in on this.

We need her to not play that shot in the dark because

we're about to make something awesome happen.

I'm gonna be, like, totally straight-up and honest with you.

I want to work with you, and I know that, like,

you are also close with, like, Sierra, and, like,

you make good connections

because I feel like you're a genuine person.

I feel really good about you ladies.

Like, so good.

So... my game plan

that I just brought up to Kyle

I'm gonna pretend like it's five strong.

But I've been itching for an opportunity to get Gabe out.

Okay.

I mean, I love to hear it. I wasn't sure because,

you know, like, it's hard to read the dynamics.

E-Exactly.

And, like, you do a good job of, like, you know,

- seeming very tight, so... - No.

Tiyana comes up to me and says,

"I actually want to get Gabe out."

I mean, that's music to my ears, obviously.

I'm gonna vote for whoever that's not me

to get me out of this very sticky situation.

The thing is, it all comes down to, I think, Caroline.

But I know she's a smart girl.

She knows, moving forward, if we go back with five, we are

- completely screwed. Like, there's no... - Yeah, I get it.

Everyone is gonna gang up on you.

- Everyone is gonna gang up on us. - Yeah.

And honestly, what better way to prove that we have cracks

- than to vote out Gabe? - Yeah.

What tiyana's saying is completely true.

Tuku is already a very threatening presence as it is.

And to go back and show that they are united

in voting out someone who, you know,

is pretty much on "the bottom,"

as far as anybody can tell

I was left out on the Anika vote and now

I'm the freaking underdog here... like,

that's not a good look for them.

And so, tiyana has, like, a very good point that

taking out someone like Gabe would be really smart.

So, if tiyana can swing Caroline

and Kyle wants to also go along with this Gabe plan,

like, I'm in.

Wow.

I don't normally like ribs, but those are amazing.

So psyched we won that.

I'm full. I don't even want to say it.

This has been a very interesting and weird season

in terms of advantages.

They've all shown themselves early.

A lot of advantages have come out

and kind of just been flushed sort of preemptively,

or in weird situations, like at last night's tribal council.

And when those leave the game,

new ones come to replace them, typically, and so,

finding an advantage could be

a very, very, very beneficial thing for me.

Andy has just been somebody

we've been keeping around because we needed his vote

on gata, so I am not surprised

that Andy is searching for an advantage.

And he's a sloppy player, plain and simple.

He's just all over. You can't, like, track him.

And I'm like, that's just not somebody I can work with.

Now that I'm working with Andy,

I cannot stress enough how important it is

for him to be careful.

I honestly feel like if you go looking for an advantage

this early into merge,

you have to be sure that you can find it.

I'm at this amazing reward.

I'm loving everything about life in this moment.

We're all just kind of chilling, you know,

getting our, food comas on, taking naps,

and, I'm just not tired, and

I'm like, "hey, sometimes there's something on these,

rewards, some type of advantage."

And so, I start creeping around, you know, taking a look,

and I'm making sure everyone's got their eyes closed.

So, I feel like I have free rein

to go searching for an idol.

I'm, like, looking, you know,

around the plates and everything.

And so, I'm like, "ain't nothing here."

Then, all of a sudden, on the corner of my eye, I see

and the way it was positioned,

it was hidden very, very well

because it almost camouflaged.

Like, it was right next to me for an hour,

and I never saw it.

Feels so good to just lay in the sun.

I'm just, like, taking it in.

This is amazing.

I've been looking for so long.

I do my very best to be chill, be calm,

"but inside, and I'm like," damn,

this could shift the game."

- Look at it. - My god.

- I don't like that. - It was so good.

Look at it. Bones!

- Well, hey, we did that. - Bones.

- You guys did it! - Well done. Look at that.

Okay. We talk out loud.

This is not... I'm not saying that I'm

- going to do it. - Let's purely brainstorm. Yes.

Purely brainstorm.

You would never think of actually

getting Gabe out, would you?

Are you debating?

Let's... I want to hear your...

'Cause, like, the whole thing is that this is an alliance

- where we talk things through. - Right. Exactly.

- Yes. - Like, I just know,

keeping the five strong would be awesome.

But we can't.

If we come back with five...

- We are screwed. - Yeah.

Tiyana mentioned, you know,

going after Gabe is an option,

and it's something we should debate.

And there is a fear that

if we successfully vote out Rachel,

five tuku strong,

we get picked off one after one after one.

I think you're right

in that they're gonna come after us

- yeah. - When we're five.

Here's the thing. I think they will go after us,

but they're not going after us.

They're gonna go after Kyle if he doesn't

get the necklace. And if he does

- get the necklace, it's Gabe. - Yeah.

Here's another thought. I personally think Rachel is

the most dangerous player in this game,

and I actually think it's much easier for us

to get numbers with girls with Rachel out,

because Rachel's the one who's connecting everyone.

Rachel is the best I've seen in a long time.

I personally think Rachel is the glue of the gata tribe,

and if we get rid of her,

a lot of options open up for tiyana and I.

Once Rachel's gone, it's easier

for us to be in the mix.

If it was anyone but Rachel, I'd be down.

I agree with you.

That's so... For Rachel, man.

I like her, too. That's the issue. Guess what?

Out of all of them, I liked her the best.

I do like her the best.

- She's that good. - Right.

Caroline does bite just a little bit,

but she does have some reservations.

And since Caroline is not on board,

it really is disappointing, because

I wish, wish, wish

that there was a way to get Gabe out of the game.

I think tonight can be

- one of two things, right? - Yeah.

We can go tuku strong, five deep.

But, like, what problems does that create

- when we get back home? - Yeah, definitely.

And I think it creates a lot of big problems

- when we get back home. - A lot of big problems.

Or we can get somebody we've been wanting to get out

for a bit now out of the game.

Everybody on tuku seems to be on the same page:

It's Rachel tonight.

The dilemma is how can we get her

to not play her shot in the dark?

Because if she plays her shot in the dark

and it hits, then we got to cannibalize each other,

and we don't want to do that.

We can go back,

and we don't have this tuku majority

- target on our back anymore. - Right.

And that's the thing that I'm most scared of.

Y-You know, I'm no dummy.

If we were to take all five of us back,

I'm not the last person on the list

- that people want to get out. - Yeah. Yeah.

- I'm gonna be high on that list. - Yeah.

Gabe's plan... because he is also

so adamant that if they go back as a strong five,

that he'll be next or he'll be the one after next

he wants Caroline out.

I want to believe it, but all the bs

that I've bought along the way in this game

it's felt so good, it's felt so right.

In that moment, it made sense, and yet it was all fake.

If nothing else, you, me, Kyle

could throw a three on Caroline,

and in our worst-case scenario, we're going to a tie.

But then what happens?

I mean, I would go to rocks

- over that, because... - Genuinely?

Well, I mean, what the... am I supposed to do at that point?

Yeah.

Because then it's like, "hey, Caroline, like,"

- I put your name down." - Yeah.

And then, "okay. Hey, I'm sorry."

- Yeah, valid, valid. - Like, i-I'll backtrack,

and, you know like, "okay, let's just do Rachel."

Yeah.

- So, it's, like... you know? - My god, Gabe.

I mean, you're giving me so much hope here.

It's, like, the best thing I could have ever hoped for

and it sounds so implausible at the same time.

Either tuku is completely playing me

or maybe I have some kind of hope in this game,

and I'm still figuring out which-which one it is.

- Well, thank you. - So... yeah, of course.

- Can I hug you? - Of course.

- Yeah, of course. Of course. - My god.

This is by far the most precarious place

I've been in this game,

because at least in the other situations,

I wasn't actually the person on the chopping block.

If I screw up tonight, I will not be

on the jury, I will not be in this game anymore.

And I... That's... terrifying.

No foul balls over here.

Change up. Change up.

I found my first advantage in this game.

I was cool, calm, and I found it.

And so, I'm pretty sure no one else saw it.

In fact, I know nobody else saw it.

Otherwise, they would have said something.

Home run!

So now, I'm gonna have

to put on my Oscar-winning performance

and go off all by myself,

because in this game, secrets are very, very rare.

But for me, I'm keeping it to myself.

So right now, no one else knows

in this game what I'm about to pull.

Come on, come on. What is it?

What is it? What is it?

I got a lot of power right now.

I finally get to use an advantage in this game

and change the outcome of some things.

My god. That's gonna be so great.

What this advantage does is it gives

someone the opportunity to block a vote.

Which is simply, if someone writes a vote, you can say,

"nope, that's not gonna count."

Or they can have safety without power.

So, in the middle of tribal council,

they can literally just leave tribal council,

go back to camp, and they're safe.

I got to think about this.

It's a good day, baby.

I just want go to tribal.

My god. It's close to sundown.

I think we're leaving soon.

I want to go to tribal right now.

- Like, right now. I can't. - I can't think of that now.

Like, I'm... Like, my entire body is just

- I just want to get it over with. - Yeah.

This is a big decision, and

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do yet.

I could give it to Rachel, but I'm not sure

if that's actually good for my game.

And if I don't give it to Rachel,

then I could build incredible bonds

with someone on the tuku tribe

and have another option to get to the end.

Ultimately,

what it's gonna come down to is what's gonna help my game.

I want to help somebody else,

but this decision is based on what's best for me.

My heart is beating very, very fast,

and I just can't wait to get it going.

Now bring in the other six.

All right. So, last tribal council,

we had everybody... 13 people.

Now we're back down to small numbers.

Six people chosen randomly, and we had the most

lopsided draw we could have with five tuku

the most people left in the game from one tribe,

and Rachel. On top of it, you have to

make this decision in front of six people

who can just watch because they're not in trouble.

They don't vote. But, man, they can observe.

All right, so let's look at the obvious.

If there was no emotion or game play

and it was just numbers, take out Rachel.

But any time you hear the word "easy" on survivor,

you should be terrified, because survivor is never easy.

Caroline, five tuku.

Maybe this is a time to make a move.

Maybe you don't want to be part of all five tuku.

Here's an opportunity, because you have Rachel as a vote.

I can guarantee you that was running through people's minds.

We have to realize numbers are numbers,

and it's gonna look threatening.

But it sucks, 'cause I see pros and cons both ways,

and it's hard to figure out

which one is gonna hurt my game less.

Gabe, one of the premises of survivor

is numbers. You got to have the numbers.

But if you have too many numbers,

then you got to get rid of some of the numbers

because too many looks threatening.

I look around and I see the five people

that I've been with for 13 days so far.

And I know, on the surface, it looks simple,

but any of those five people might say,

"tonight's a hell of a night to make one of those moves."

So, Rachel, the minute the challenge ended

and you had lost and you knew you were coming here,

you could not have predicted to hear,

"Rachel's not a for-sure.

There are opportunities all over the place."

I mean, yeah.

This rock draw, nobody can deny that this is, like,

the worst-case scenario.

But I don't know

if Gabe is blowing smoke up my ass right now.

If you're actually a tight five,

and you're trying to stay together,

the plan would be to convince me that you have cracks,

and to get me not to play my shot in the dark.

So, it's scary.

It's not been an easy day for me.

Kyle, once again,

you have individual immunity, and it does give you

just a little bit of breath

that you can stand back and say, "I'm noticing some things."

What'd you see?

Yeah, so, Rachel did a good job today.

I mean, she took time to pull everybody aside.

She talked in groups,

she went on solo adventures with people.

She did her job, trying to find cracks,

and may have found some, and... And she did her little wiggle.

Tiyana, I find it fascinating that you have

five tuku members, all maybe independently thinking,

"how could I use Rachel?"

You really just put our pickle on blast, Jeff.

That's exactly what I've been thinking all day long because

this is a very important vote. Like,

being able to make the jury, for me, personally,

it just means the absolute world,

and I know it means the world to everybody here.

So, I got to go with my gut,

and honestly, with the vote tonight,

I'm just hoping that I send a message

to the people that I really trust

that I can be worked with and I'm someone that

can be trusted in an alliance.

Caroline, tell me more about

the importance of making the jury.

I think the universal feeling that

I want to say almost every single survivor player has

who actually cares about the game

you want to have an impact on the game.

It's not that we're sitting here dreaming of being on the jury,

but we're dreaming of having an absolute, tangible,

irrefutable piece of evidence

that we made an impact on this game.

All right. So, Rachel, for you, this afternoon,

the subject line is easy.

"Vote, vote, vote. I'm a vote."

But you're not just a vote.

You want this vote to have some impact tomorrow.

Well, I think

sometimes in survivor, you can plan three steps ahead

and sometimes you just have to get through the night.

And today was one of those days

where I just had to get through the night.

And so, today was

anybody else that I can possibly, like, hope

that these people want to vote out that isn't me.

When you went from person to person,

was your hope meter undulating?

It undulated. There was some chaos.

There was some paranoia. There were stories

that were not cross-checking, and

this has been the hardest day of survivor for me.

So, sue, given where we are in the game,

and all the uncertainty, maybe the five tuku,

for tonight, take out Rachel. That's the easy move.

"And we all make the jury and we'll figure it out."

Yeah, that is the easiest move,

and it's almost like the most obvious move.

But, you know, I learned real quick,

this game basically changes almost on the hour.

You can't predict anything.

You can say, "okay, I'm set in stone this way."

Next thing you know, you're totally flip-flopped.

So it's just, like, my head is spinning.

It's really, really... this is very difficult for me tonight.

Tiyana, part of playing survivor is making a move,

but also, maybe to not make a move.

Is that part of the discussion that tuku was having?

"We could just vote out Rachel"?

Absolutely, that was always an option.

I mean, just look at five versus one.

It kind of seems like the obvious option,

but you want to make big moves

because if I just go for it and I swing for the fences

and it doesn't work out, at least I know I went for it.

What happens if tomorrow, I didn't take that chance

and I go home with regrets?

That is, like, my biggest nightmare

from this entire experience is going home with any regrets.

This is your shot. This is your opportunity.

You got to go for it or you're gonna miss it.

Caroline, the risk is

the tuku five blow it tonight.

You had five. This was easy.

And you make a move and it was a little too soon.

I think you're hitting the nail on the head.

In the new era, there's such an emphasis on big moves,

and granted, big moves win you the game,

but it's big, smart moves.

There's a very big distinction between a big move

that changes things

in a way that's not good for you,

in a way that blows up your game.

And that's what I'm playing my game on, is

what are the smart moves that I can make?

Sometimes they're not always flashy,

but I'm making the moves that are best for my game

and for my alliance.

So, Rachel, it all centers around you.

The tuku five are in charge.

The question is can you find a way

to get at least one or two of them to come with you

and try to make a move? What's the feeling?

Is it optimistic, pessimistic or hopeful?

You know, still anxious, but anxiously hopeful.

I think that I know what the plan is tonight,

and I think that I'm a part of that plan,

and I have given my word that I'm gonna do something

and I intend to do it and I just really hope that

no one's giving me a shakedown.

Gabe, concerning at all that Rachel's saying,

"hey, man, I was told there's a plan and I'm a part of it

and if it works, I'm gonna be here tonight"?

Well, I mean, it's concerning

if you don't know what that plan is.

And depending on what perspective you look at it on,

Rachel could be totally helpless,

drowning in the water, hoping somebody grabs her hand.

But if she can sow enough discord between all of us,

all of a sudden, Rachel might be sitting

on top of the mountain saying,

"I'm choosing who's going home tonight."

And that's a pretty crazy thing to think about

when you really dig deep into it.

So, as we get ready for the vote,

it seems like it is a very simple question.

"Will the tuku five stick together

or are the tuku five going to turn on each other?"

All right, it is time to vote.

- Sue. - Jeff?

About 20 minutes... and I mean 20 minutes

before we left for tribal,

I found a scroll in my bag. And when I ran

into the woods to read it, I discovered that

somebody sent me... An advantage...

Only good for tonight.

Rachel, read your advantage for me.

Sorry. My hands are shaking.

"When Jeff says it's time to vote,

announce that you have the safety without power advantage."

"You will leave tribal council immediately.

"You will not cast a vote

but more importantly, you cannot be voted out."

So, I hope that you all understand.

My husband gave me a couple words of wisdom

before I came out here and one of them was,

"do not go home with something in your pocket."

So, assuming I was getting strays tonight,

this is a lifeline, and thank you to whoever sent it.

All right. So, Rachel's playing

the safety without power. Rachel,

you can grab your torch, head back to camp.

Well, that answers that question

about the tuku five.

My god.

So... Now what?

- Clearly, - this was a shock. - Yes.

Yeah, little bit.

We're going to vote tonight.

It is going to be a tuku member,

and it's going to happen soon. So, Gabe, where are we?

I mean, you know, the game has changed.

- Just like that. - That goes without saying.

The game has certainly changed.

There were many times

where we had to be prepared to go to tribal

as a tuku five before the merge.

People kind of got to wind the clock back

in their head a little bit and think about, "well",

"if we lost immunity with five people,

"what were we gonna do again?" You know?

And so, I think that's kind of where a lot of people's

- heads are at. - Kyle, this is fascinating.

I mean, what Gabe just said

"it's as if we did a time warp.

We're back to the tuku tribe."

So, where's your heart right now?

It's pounding through the back of my... my body.

I-I don't really know.

I mean, yes, of course I'm safe, so, great.

But this vote, whatever happens right now,

is going to propel into the future.

It's gonna have repercussions, right?

And that could break my game apart, like, quick.

Tiyana, you are looking up to the sky,

you're looking for answers from somewhere.

What is the game now?

Damn. This is... I'm not gonna lie to you.

Spending 13 days with people is not something

that I take for granted, and it just is, like

I don't know. My anxiety is, like, really through the roof

and it's hard to think and process words and

I even just told you that the jury means everything.

Like, getting there means everything.

So... I don't know.

It's gonna suck.

Is the emotion more that you're worried

you will be voted out tonight

or is the emotion that you're not sure what to do

because this wasn't the plan?

Both.

Like, it's very, very possible that it could be me,

and that would just, like, devastate me,

and that would be horrible, and...

Damn. But at the same time, I have a pit in my stomach

that I got to send somebody home that

I know really, really wants to be here.

So it's almost like I'm crying for both myself

and others, and it... I've never

done this before. I've never cried for myself and others.

It doesn't even make sense because it's literally

the exact same situation.

I got to say, from here, it makes total sense.

You're terrified it could be you

and if it's not you, you're horrified by the thought

that you have to do it to somebody else.

My family's gonna kill me that I'm crying.

Damn.

Awesome. While I'm crying,

everyone's talking. Okay, cool.

I'm just gonna get up now.

I was, like, "time

for frigging debates to happen over here."

- So, we're back on? - I...

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

So, Caroline, what's in your head right now?

I'll be honest. I don't even know how

to answer your question. My brain is not equipped

to handle this at this moment. It's not.

So it's-it's just overwhelmed right now?

Yeah.

How about you, Gabe?

We all have relationships.

Survivor is a game of relationships,

and you got to trust 'em.

So tonight, I'm trusting my relationships,

and we'll see

if that trust pays off in a few minutes, I'm sure.

All right, it is time to vote.

Sue, you're up.

I'll go tally the votes.

If anybody has an advantage or an idol

and you want to play it, now would be the time to do so.

Okay, I'll read the votes.

Gabe.

Tiyana. One vote Gabe, one vote tiyana.

Tiyana. That's two votes tiyana, one vote Gabe.

Seventh person voted out of survivor 47:

Tiyana. That's three. That's enough.

Need to bring me your torch.

Tiyana, the tribe has spoken.

Time for you to go.

No. No. No, no.

Grab your torches, head back to camp.

Good night.

I see that word "auction,"

and my heart explodes.

Next time on survivor...

War is absolutely coming.

We're gladiators ready to brawl in an arena.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

They're not gonna see me coming.

I thought I could trust the people that were

in my alliance, and I got bamboozled.

To come this far and to literally

be one vote away

from making the jury... I'm beyond devastated right now.

I think I played a genuinely honest game,

and it was true to myself,

and I don't regret the way I played the game.

I just regret who I trusted.
