#Survivor begins with the tribe coming back from Tribal after the blindside of Wigglesworth. Jeremy wants to talk to Tasha to smooth things over. He tells her they couldn’t tell her and Tasha says once you have the voting block, they don’t tell anyone else.
She says she’ll give them this one but if they leave her out again, that’s it. Joe talks to Tasha and Jeremy about it. He’s mad and is trying to hold it in check. They ask about who voted Wiggles. Spencer says he and Jeremy and the girls did. Joe says they don’t need to let the girls get a leg up. Joe is worried because his allies are falling away and he says he must win immunity again.
On night 24, the rain is beating down on Orkun and all day on day 25. The tribe sits huddled under the shelter shivering. Ciera is feeling pretty good about her position in the game but says the rain ruins everything. She can’t have one on one conversations because they have to hide in the shelter. Then lightning starts and they wonder if they can eat dry rice.
Keith says he can sit in the rain for a million bucks. His toes are shredding. He says Survivor is not fun, going on a cruise is fun. He says – this ain’t fun, golly… The tribe meets Jeff for the reward challenge. Tasha says the weather is exhausting them. The rain keeps pouring down on them. Jeff says the reward is to get away from the rain to somewhere with a roof.
He says they will be warm, have blankets, and food. They will see a Cambodian circus too. They have to battle for a ball and toss it into a basket. The first team to three wins and it will take place in the water. They do a schoolyard pick for teams. They ran this in season 18 and Fish scored the winning basket back then. Joe, Spencer, Ciera face off against Jeremy, Fish and Wentworth.
Spencer misses and Jeremy sinks a basket for green. Next is Kimmi, Wentworth and Keith vs Tasha, Abi and Joe. Joe throws Kimmi out of the way and Keith hangs on to it. Kimmi grabs Joe’s foot and he shoves her down then shoots and ties it up. Next is Jeremy, Kimmi and Fish vs Joe, Ciera and Spencer. Spencer tackles Jeremy. Jeremy runs for the basket and Joe knocks him down. Jeremy misses.
Spencer sinks it and purple takes the lead 2-1. Next is Joe, Abi and Tasha vs Jeremy, Wentworth and Kimmi. The brawl is non stop – this is jungle ball. Kimmi clings to Tasha’s leg and Jeremy has Joe in a headlock. Tasha gets loose and sinks it to win reward. Tasha, Ciera, Abi, Spencer and Joe get the reward. They are loaded right onto a boat and head out.
Jeff tells them he has nothing for them and sends Wentworth, Jeremy, Fish, Kimmi and Keith head back to camp colder and with nothing to show for their efforts. Spencer and the others watch the show while they sit under warm blankets with food. He says this feels as important as immunity. Ciera says she likes seeing the kids and it makes her miss her kids. She cries a bit.
Later, they sit and talk. Ciera is ready to work on an advantage. She tells the group they have a chance to take out Fish since he has the advantage. Joe has wanted Fish out for a while and hopes this will happen since Stephen has been targeting him. Back at camp, life is miserable for the five losers. Jeremy says this sucks but they need to push through.
Kimmi says she has sit at the hospital with her son for more than 40 days with his kidney disease and that was worse so she can do this. Keith takes one of Joe’s shirts to warm up and says – to hell with him. Jeremy comments about Joe pushing all the girls down. Keith says someone needs to stop Joe from winning all the challenges.
Wentworth is thrilled to be part of a voting block against Joe. Fish is happy they are all on the same page to make sure Joe doesn’t win immunity. Fish is happy to have the advantage and wonders if he can use it against Joe. It’s a stormy night and the others are back now. Everyone is miserable and Fish starts having horrible stomach pains.
They all feel bad for him. Fish cries and says he thinks his body is breaking down and he can’t go on like this. They haven’t been able to eat since they can’t start the fire. On day 26, it’s more rain still. Fish says the rain won’t stop and his stomach is tearing him up. He says he just needs the sun for 15 minutes and he’ll be better.
Fish is bawling and upset. He says he doesn’t know what he’s going to do. Jeremy says he feels bad for him and says Fish is in bad shape with messed up stomach and swollen feet. Jeremy says he needs Fish there as an ally. Now the tribe heads to the #ImmunityChallenge. Jeff gives them each one black rock and one white rock. They take them.
Jeff takes back the necklace from Joe again. They have to balance on one foot on a block and hold a ball against a post with an oval stick device. This one was played in Keith’s season and he lost. The good news is, the rain is stopped. Fish says it’s been terrible and says it was a personal life low. Jeff says they still have half a month left.
Jeff says they can improve their shelter. He says a construction crew is at their camp. They will waterproof it, get a fire going in the center and more. They have to have five people step out of the immunity challenge to get this incentive. Spencer says this is an I and We dilemma. A white rock means they give up the chance at a challenge.
A black rock means I have to play. Jeff says this is about trust. They have to vote with a rock in their hand. They reveal. Joe and Keith are the only ones with a black stone. The other eight flip a white rock. Jeff says they will have a big shelter when they get back to camp. Keith says he’s a competitor and he wants to play and figured Joe would play.
Joe says he was back and forth then figured the rain would affect others more so they would vote for the shelter. Only Joe and Keith will face off for the challenge. They step up and get their balls balanced and the challenge begins. You have to hold your arms up over your head to keep the ball in play. It looks excruciating. Jeff talks while they hang there.
Jeff says the fatigue has to be setting in. Joe has a bit of movement. Spencer whispers that he’s slipping. Keith’s moves a little and then he loses it. Joe wins his fourth individual immunity. Fish is not happy. Jeff sends them back to camp. Fish says Joey Amazing wins again but at least with the new shelter, they can play again. He plans to target Ciera instead.
They head back and see their new shelter and they also got cookies and hot tea and coffee. Spencer says this is great and the shelter is incredible. But he also says he feels like they sold their souls to the devil. Fish talks to Jeremy and Kimmi about targeting Ciera. He thinks she’s dangerous. He doesn’t want to use the advantage right now.
Joe talks about voting out Fish and Abi calls Stephen poopy pants. Joe reminds them all he has an advantage. They wonder about splitting the vote and agree to split it between Kimmi and Fish. Tasha talks to Spencer about this being the Ciera show. Tasha says Ciera has unhinged groups and if they take her out, they could use Wentworth and Abi.
Spencer agrees but he wants Fish out of the game and has to convince people to move with them. Joe and Spencer talk to Jeremy and Tasha about voting out Fish. Jeremy says he thought Ciera. Spencer and Joe tell them the girls are definitely going after Fish. Tasha says Ciera is a bigger threat. Joe wants both Ciera and Fish gone.
He says he knows Ciera is a liar but Fish has an advantage that none of them know. Spencer says they need to blind side him before he can play it. Jeremy argues. He says two idols but wants Fish in the game since they trust each other. Jeremy says Ciera is a free agent. Spencer talks to Jeremy about the importance of getting rid of Fish’s advantage.
He says Fish can flip more easily. Jeremy still pushes back. They head off to #TribalCouncil and Spencer says this will be close. He says he and Jeremy are both convinced they are right in this and he hopes Fish will go home but has no idea what will happen tonight. They head in and take their seats then the jury of Kass, Savage and Wigglesworth come in and take seats.
Jeff talks about the weather. He talks to Kelly about being at the reward challenge. She says the water was warmer than the rain and says it was the first time she’s cried in Survivor. Fish says he had severe gastrointestinal stress at the peak of the storm. Jeff says he offered them a shot to change up their shelter and Ciera says her first thought was giving up her spot.
But she says she wondered who else would also give up. Tasha says she wondered who would be selfish and unselfish. Joe speaks up and says if he put out that white rock, he knew he would go home tonight, no question. Keith says he’s a competitor and was trying to kill the golden boy. Spencer says Keith’s choice won’t sway the vote against him.
Fish says there are many clusters of power here and he has no idea what’s coming. Jeff asks Jeremy about voting blocks. He says there was a plan and then people start walking off and it changes. Tasha says there has been a lot of talk about Fish’s advantage. Fish says he knew he would be a target when he went for the advantage.
Jeremy says everyone knows it so it’s bad in a way and is a disadvantage. Fish says you have to vote for the best thing for you right now. Ciera says this complicates things because there are no lines. Ciera says this is an exciting vote and says it would be suck if she’s blindsided and if turning her white rock up could be a million dollar mistake.
The votes start. Abi votes Fish. No other votes are shown. Jeff comes back and calls for immunity idols. Jeremy plays an idol and says it’s for Fish. That drops jaws. Fish thanks him. The votes are: Fish, Fish, Fish, Fish, Fish, Ciera, Ciera, Kimmi, Kimmi and the last vote is Ciera. Ciera is sent packing. She tells Jeremy well played.
Jeremy whispers to Spencer that he would do the same thing for him. Ciera wishes them luck and leaves. Jeff says it’s another big move and sends them back to camp. Ciera says it was her night to go and she got people to play a little harder and is happy she went out with a fight and can go home in peace.
The survivors head back to camp after tribal and Joe calls Jeremy sneaky sneaky. Kimmi says it was classy. Fish says he had no idea that he had an idol and says he saved his life and now he owes him. Jeremy tells him the other dudes don’t trust him. He thanks Jeremy and says he’s got his back. He says now he knows Stephen will take him to the end.
Jeremy says he knows there’s a target on him now but says he’s got wiggle room to make another mood. Jeremy then goes and tells Spencer not to be paranoid. He says he would do the same thing for Spencer. Spencer feels betrayed though and is ready to jump ship on that alliance. Rain again on day 27 and Fish is annoyed he didn’t see it coming.
He talks to Kimmi about last night and he says he knew nothing last night when he usually knows what’s happening. Fish’s feet are swollen and he puts them by the fire. Fish says his feet are swollen to monster size and he can barely walk and can’t sleep. The survivors come to a nighttime challenge. It’s #SurvivorFolklore.
Jeff will them some Cambodian history and they answer trivia questions. The first to answer five questions wins. The winner gets picked up by helicopter to go to a spa resort for steak, chicken, cocktails and the works. Jeff tells the story about a Cambodian king from the 12th and 13th centuries. He talks about the king’s armies. Angkor Wat was the largest city in the world back then.
He gives the history of the city and says it was as big as LA. But the king was Buddhist and changed the state religion and built the Bayon temple. It’s the length of three football fields. That’s the whole story. They now head into the woods. There’s an idol clue in one of the packets. They take off running into the jungle. They ask about the king’s religion and the stone of the temple.
They all run back with a packet. Keith is wrong, Spencer is right, Kelly and Fish are right, Jeremy, and Abi got it right too. Keith is wrong again. Joe is wrong. Fish has two right ones. Spencer has two. Wentworth gets the idol clue and shoves it in her pants. Spencer has a third right one and takes the lead. Only Keith has one. Abi gets a third.
Fish gets a third and Spencer gets a fourth and just needs one more. Fish lied to Abi about an answer she didn’t know. Jeremy gets a third and Abi misses and Spencer gets it wrong so now Fish can win it if he hurries. Spencer and Fish have four each and they are both unwrapping. Fish wins it with the fifth questions. Spencer lost it by seconds.
Fish will get the spa reward and Jeff says to choose one person to come along. He took Tasha and then Jeff says choose one more and he takes Jeremy. Fish said he needed to mend fences with Tasha. Spencer says Fish made questionable choices by taking them and now he knows that he’s not as tight with them as he thought and he needs to make a move.
Plus Jeremy was furious that Fish didn’t pick him first after he gave him an idol so that was dumb. He should have chosen Jeremy first. The survivors come back to camp and Fish says running on his monster feet was hard. Kelly is happy to have an idol clue and it says she has to pick the right moment. The idol is under the shelter. She tries feeling around while it’s dark.
She decides to wait until tomorrow when the three are gone on reward. The chopper takes Fish, Jeremy and Tasha to the resort. Fish says Tasha wrote down his name at Tribal so he’s worried about her. Fish says he feels tight with them and tells them what his advantage is. He says he can steal a vote and he can have a second vote.
They all agree that the first time Joe loses individual immunity, he has to go. Back at the camp, the others talk about how tight Fish, Tasha and Jeremy obviously are. Kimmi leaves and the others talk about what they want to do. Spencer says get rid of Fish because of that advantage. Abi worries he would use it against her.
She says let me win the challenge and Joe says no. Abi thinks Joe and Spencer are sketchy. She’s not sure she will go with the plan. They talk about going with Tasha or Fish depending on who wins immunity. Kelly is focused on getting the idol. Joe and Spencer decide to go fishing and Keith and Kimmi go look for crabs. Now it’s just Abi at camp.
Kelly is desperate to get her out of there before the others come back. Kelly fakes sleep and Abi goes to the hammock. She has her back to the shelter and Kelly climbs under the shelter. She tries to get it loose and then everyone comes back. She gets it and skitters out. She says this was stressful but has it and is ready to shake up the game.
It’s day 29 and time for the next #ImmunityChallenge. Jeff takes back the necklace from Joe. This challenge is to use just your feet. They release a rope, drop blocks and stack blocks then place a flag in the middle. This was played back in Keith and Jeremy’s season and Jeremy was sent home that night when he didn’t win it. Jeremy thanks him for the reminder.
They draw for spots and start. They all get their blocks except for Spencer who is struggling with the initial knot. His finally fall. Fish is slowest because his feet are bad. Jeff says his feet look prehistoric. Spencer catches up and is doing well. Wentworth takes the lead with Joe close behind. Keith and Spencer are close behind them. Wentworth is struggling.
Jeff says if Joe wins this, he joins an elite group but then he knocks some over. Keith’s stack takes a tumble. Spencer takes over the lead and Joe is close behind. Spencer is one block ahead. Joe is catching up. Spencer puts the last block on his top row. Spencer has to put the flag in the middle. Spencer struggles to get his flag in as Joe puts his last block in.
Joe’s blocks tumble as Spencer gets his flag in and wins individual immunity. Spencer wins and break Joe’s streak. Joe is worried that he has no safety tonight. He’s nervous. Back at camp, the others congratulate Spencer and Fish is excited that Joe will be available for elimination. Fish has his shot and is ready to make a move.
Joe goes to lay in the hammock and Fish asks the others about voting Joe out. Jeremy says Joe is a big challenge guy and could keep winning. They agree to tell Joe they’re voting Abi and tell Abi the plan only if they ask. Kelly says she has five people and goes to Keith and tells him they need to take out Fish. Joe says he’s relying on his social game tonight.
Wentworth says they have a solid five. Joe hopes the Fish blindside goes through. Abi talks to Fish and he tells her Joe. She says yeah and thanks him. He says she sounds like she doesn’t believe him. Then she gets angry and asks what else he wants from her. Fish says Abi is insane and suspicious of everyone. Fish now needs to convince Joe he’s going after Abi.
Joe says Abi thinks it’s her. Abi thinks Joe is shady for talking to Jeremy and Fish. Abi tells the others she’s not sure and will vote at Tribal. She says she thinks Joe is playing her and Kelly but Kelly says stick to the plan. Abi says she has decisions to make. Wentworth is ready to play the idol if she has to. Abi goes to Spencer and he says it’s Joe.
He tells Abi she has nothing to worry about. She says she’s ready to go home if she has to. She says it doesn’t matter who goes home and says she’ll decide her vote at Tribal. Spencer is worried that she will not vote for Fish. He says they have to vote for Fish or this won’t work. Fish then goes to Jeremy and says Abi is all over.
Fish says maybe Joe has an idol but Jeremy says he doesn’t. Fish wonders about using his advantage. He says they lose Abi and Joe with his advantage. He tells Spencer he’ll use his advantage tonight and says they should split the vote for Abi and Joe. Fish tells Spencer what his advantage is and now Spencer is worried about that plus Abi.
He says their plan is to take out Fish but that’s a risk. They head to #TribalCouncil. The jury comes in – Kass, Savage, Wigglesworth and Ciera. Jeff says Joe isn’t wearing immunity since the merge. He says he just hopes the trust he’s built will take him further. Abi says there are alliances clearly and it all depends on which alliance is most loyal to you.
Jeff mentions all blindsides this season. Tasha says the voting block may not hold going forward and they need to build a core and move forward. Wentworth says Fish said that Tasha was in his alliance at the reward challenge. Fish says advantage is scary and he knows why it threatens people. He says last tribal showed that they can vote his way.
Spencer says this is insanely complicated and there are so many possibilities. Abi says there was a lot of talk and a lot of names being thrown. She says she has a headache from all this. Fish says there’s a 33% chance of a blindside. Tasha says a shift is happening and says you need people you can trust to get you to the end. Jeff calls for the vote.
Then Fish plays his advantage. He says he can steal a vote and cast it. He says he’s stealing Joe’s vote. Joe says that sucks but it’s the game. The vote starts. They show no votes except Fish who votes Abi and Joe, one for each of them. Jeff goes to count the votes and then comes back. Jeff calls for a hidden immunity idol. Wentworth doesn’t play hers.
Votes are: Joe, Abi, Fish, Joe, Abi, Abi, Fish, Fish, Fish. Holy crap – he sent himself out by splitting his two votes. He could have sent Abi home. Joe is thrilled to see his nemesis voted out. Jeff says the only predictable thing is the unpredictability. Fish says Spencer must have flipped on him – they show the votes and he did.
Kimmi voted for Abi, Jeremy for Joe, Tasha for Abi and then Fish voted one for Joe and one for Abi. That means Spencer, Wentworth, Abi and Keith blindsided Fish.
THE END!
