No turning back
Jonathan and Candice, the two mutineers left their tribe last week to join Raro. Now, there is no turning back. Although Candice seems happy with her decision, Jonathan comments, “I regret jumping.” He says that it was a “mistake”.
Reward Challenge
The tribes compete in the rewards challenge. They have to use a compass to find coordinates, dig under the ground, retrieve several chests, and use those chests to uncover seven nautical flags that need to be arranged to spell victory.
The prize
The tribes were playing for a trip by airplane to a neighboring island where they will participate in a huge feast complete with pork and home brew.
The mighty underdogs
After Aitu once again defeats the large tribe of Raro, they are taken to the other island where they are given a warriors welcome as they ride on the shoulders of the islanders. They had a blast, eating the food, participating in their celebration, and dancing. A fat woman even gave Yul some sort of lap dance.
Immunity…up for grabs
At the immunity challenge, survivors have to swim, dive down, unclip bundles containing island names from underwater, swim back to shore and repeat this process. Once all bundles are collected, the survivors will untie them and arrange them on a table to decipher a puzzle.
Champs again!
Aitu wins once again. I nearly shouted with glee when they sent Candice back to Exile Island again.
The mysterious bottle
The losers will face tribal counsel, and they are sent back to camp with a bottle that Jeff says contains vital information about the game, but they must keep it sealed. Tribe members predict it is about a merger. They all plan to vote off Rebecca because of her poor performance during challenges. As Adam says, “I’m tired of losing.”
Tribal counsel
At tribal counsel, the tribe votes out Rebecca, but the twist came when the bottle was opened after she was voted out and Jeff announced they had to vote off one more person. With no time to strategize, the survivors were thrown off guard. When Jenny was voted off, Jonathan appeared shocked and relieved while Jenny looked infuriated.
