We started this episode off with Jeremy at camp while the Tribal Council was going on. Jeremy talks about how he was losing his mind waiting for everyone to get back. Then he sees everyone walking back and notices that Tyson was sent back to the EOE. Jeremy knows he is in trouble and Ben tells us that Jeremy is his still his target, more now than ever. Kim and Michele are talking about how they were left out of the vote. Michele knows that with Tyson gone, her, Kim, Jeremy, and Denise are in trouble.
While everyone is sleeping, Tony starts looking for an idol because he knows that another idol was put into play after Kim played hers. While he is out looking, Nick shows up and starts asking him where he has looked already. Tony already checked the water well area, but he suggests that they should split up and sends Nick to check the well. After Nick is out of sight, Tony moves a rock and under the rock, there is a hidden immunity idol.
Sarah decides that she wants to show off her creative side and holds a fashion show. Tony doesn’t want anything to do with this and walks off. After the fashion show, Tony and Jeremy go off and chat a bit about how crazy the Tribal was. Tony is acting like he wants to work with Jeremy, Michele, Denise, and Kim, however, Kim is onto him. She tells Denise that Tony is playing double agent and Kim tells us that makes Tony her biggest enemy in the game right now.
Edge Of Extinction
Adam seems to be having a hard time on EOE. While looking for firewood, Parvati and Natalie find a bottle with a clue in it and they realize that the clue points to space under the shelter. Parvati distracts the others and Natalie finds a scroll. It’s an Extortion Advantage. This blocks a player from playing in a challenge and voting unless the player is able to pay the demands.
Back at camp
Tony finds the scroll from EOE in his bag and runs off to read it. He gets the Extortion Advantage and is super excited until he reads the part where it’s being played against him and he has to pay up 6 fire tokens before the Immunity Challenge. The first person he goes to talk to is Michele, but Michele used hers but tells him that she will talk to Jeremy. Jeremy gives him one, but that only gives him 4 tokens. That forces him to have to go to his real alliance for the rest. He is able to get one from Nick and one from Ben to pay it off so he can compete.
Immunity Challenge
In this challenge, the castaways have to stand on a narrow beam with a pole holding up a statue on a post in front of them. If they drop their statue, they are eliminated. Kim is the first one eliminated. Denise drops hers, Michele is right behind her and Sarah drops right after Michele. We are down to five. Nick is out, Sophie loses her balance and is out also. Tony, Ben, and Jeremy are the last three left. Ben is out leaving Tony and Jeremy, but then Jeremy falls right after. Tony has one his second immunity challenge ever! He now has two fire tokens also, who will be pay back? Paying off the extortion demands really paid off.
Pre Tribal Council
Kim joins the other side (Ben, Nick, Sophie, and Sarah) because she doesn’t have a choice. The plan is to have Kim and Sophie throw votes at Michele just in case, but the rest of them are going to vote for Jeremy. Kim and Denise are working together to blindside Jeremy, so Denise will be voting for him also. Tony is now thinking that he is going to flip the vote and get Sophie out because. Tony talks to Nick first and Nick tells Tony he would be willing to vote out Sophie instead of Jeremy. Tony then goes to Jeremy to tell him that everyone is planning to blindside Jeremy, but Tony and Nick can save him. Jeremy doesn’t believe him though. Tony tells him that Jeremy needs to talk to Michele because the votes are being split between Jeremy and Michele. If the four of them all vote for Sophie, Jeremy will be safe.
Tribal Council
There are talks about how everyone in the game is telling half-truths and it’s time to pick who you think you can trust in the end. They talk about how it’s all about timing too and you need to make sure that you are making your big moves at the right time. Ben, Jeremy, Michele, and Sophie talk about how quiet it’s been all day around them. Jeff tells them it’s time to vote! When the votes are tallied, Jeff tells them that if anyone has a hidden immunity idol they would like to play, now is the time to do so. No one plays one, here are the votes:
- Jeremy
- Michele
- Jeremy
- Michele
- Jeremy
- Sophie
- Sophie
- Sophie
- Sophie
Wow! They pulled off the flip and Sophie leaves with an idol in her pocket! Sophie leaves her Fire Tokens to Sarah and Kim on her way to EOE.
