We started tonight’s episode off with the castaways being called out to the beach by Jeff. They are told that sometimes even in a war like this, it’s important to take a moment, lay down your weapons and remember what and who they are playing for. Kim’s husband and three kids are the first to be brought out during the family visit. Ben’s wife and his two kids are brought out next.

Sophie’s fiance, Bobby, is there for her and she couldn’t be happier. Sarah’s partner, Wyatt, and her son are there for her. Denise’s husband, Brad, and her daughter are there to see her. Nick’s fiance is there and Tony’s wife and two kids are there to see him. Michele’s sister, Kim, is there for her. Tyson’s wife, Rachel, and their daughter are there. Finally, Jeremy’s wife, Val and all four of their kids are there for him.

Everyone is told that there is no Survivor Loved Ones Challenge this season, they will all be heading back to camp to spend time with each other. They all head back to camp and went swimming, the kids all played together, and they all let loose.

On EOE, a big boat comes into view and the castaways are all worried that something bad is going to happen. Natalie then notices that it’s their families on the boat! They all got to spend time with their kids, sisters, significant others, and fathers. Amber mentioned that you would have never had known that they were all suffering at that moment because all you can see is pure joy on all their faces.

It is time for this week’s Immunity Challenge! They will be pulling on a rope to balance a table and on this table, they will be stacking blocks to spell out the word “Immunity” without the blocks falling will win immunity and two fire tokens. Tony is in the lead, Tyson and Ben are right behind him then all of a sudden, Tyson’s blocks fall. Leaving Tony with Ben on his tail and Nick close behind that. Nick then loses all his blocks leaving just Ben and Tony. Tony gets his final letter on the stack and has to get all the way back, Ben gets his letter up there and starts heading back. Ben loses all of his blocks halfway back, Tony is able to get all the way back and on the platform. Tony wins Immunity and two fire tokens. This is his first immunity challenge win ever.

Jeremy talks to Tony about wanting to split up Sophie and Sarah because them being that close is dangerous, however, Tony doesn’t think that’s a good idea just yet. Sarah talks to Tony about wanting to get Kim out because she has everyone in her back pocket, but Tony doesn’t agree and thinks that Tyson should go first. Tony then talks to Nick and Ben about blindsiding Jeremy after Jeremy called Kim over to talk. Tyson joins the talk with Kim and Jeremy and agrees that the three of them, Denise and Michele need to work together. Kim also mentions to them that she has an idol. Kim tells Denise that if she isn’t getting votes, she will use the idol for someone else. Jeremy tells Tyson about his safety without power advantage, but Tyson tells him that they need him for a vote. Sarah has a steal a vote too. This is going to get crazy!

It is time for tonight’s Tribal Council! Jeff asks Nick how he’s feeling about the game now, Nick tells him that he thinks that people are ready to play and the whispers have started. People are moving around talking to each other and whispers are continuing. Tony tells Jeff that he feels really good about having won the immunity challenge this week. It’s the only bulletproof vest in the game.

It is time to vote! Jeremy and Sarah both said Jeff’s name as he says it’s time to vote. Then neither of them want to say anything. Sarah tells Jeremy to go ahead, but they don’t. Jeremy plays his Safety Without Power advantage. He is allowed to leave Tribal Council and can not be voted out, but he can also not vote. Jeremy abandoned his squad and Sarah decides to steal Denise’s vote with her Steal A Vote advantage. Sarah will vote twice, Denise will not vote at all.

The votes are tallied and Jeff tells them that if there is a hidden immunity idol that they wish to play, now is the time. Kim plays her idol for Denise! Here are the votes:

  • Denise
  • Denise
  • Sophie
  • Sophie
  • Tyson
  • Tyson
  • Tyson
  • Tyson

With four votes, Tyson is voted out for the second time and sent back to the Edge of Extinction. Kim feels terrible because she almost played her idol for him, but played it for Denise instead.
