Survivor, Ep. 33.10

Vinaka Camp
Adam apologizes for not telling everyone about his advantage. Bret said Taylor is gone because he stole food and that's that. Adam wants Jay out of the game for what happened with Taylor and Jay. Jay says that Taylor drug him down with him and he wished he would have stopped talking in Tribal. To try to win back some favor, he dug up some of the remaining food and gave it back to them. He thinks maybe now they won't suspect that he has an idol.

Chris and Bret talk and they think Jay can wait, and they need to go after Jess. They almost have the numbers they need with Sunday and Zeke on their side.

Hannah connects with Ken as they ponder over the beautiful sunrise. Umm...she kind of has a major crush.

Zeke and Will go off and talk. Will said he is ready to get off the sinking ship and he's done working with Jay. Will tells Zeke that Jay has an idol and he knows because he was there when he found it. He said that this can't get back to Jay or he's dead. He's hoping that this will help him build trust with Zeke. IMMEDIATELY, Zeke goes and tells every. single. member. of. the. tribe. Wow. That backfired, and it backfired quickly. That spread faster than wildfire.

Zeke and Chris decide to make Jay think he is the next to go so he uses his idol, and then they will continue with their plan to actually blindside Jess.

Reward Challenge
Challenge: swim to a raft and pull it to a platform, climb a ladder to get a key and go back to shore, then stack colored boxes so no color is repeated on any side.

Reward: floating pizza bar

Teams: randomly drawn and 1 person will have to sit out. David speaks up and says he's not a good swimmer and no one would want him on their team. He didn't want anyone to miss out on pizza because of him. They all said he can do it and he shouldn't give up. He broke down as Jeff said that's never happened where someone wanted to sit out on a reward challenge so they wouldn't hold others back, and then to have the group encourage them.

Orange: Ken, Jess, Chris, David, Will
Purple: Zeke, Bret, Sunday, Hannah, Adam

Jay picked the odd rock, and he has to sit out :(

Orange has a slight lead to the platform to get the 5 keys. Ken dropped a key and has to swim out to get it. He lost a little time, but still easily beat Hannah. Sunday takes a huge fall into the water and is struggling to shore. It's Orange with #4 and Purple has #3. David is bringing up the rear for Orange, but he did well. Zeke beat him in a sprint to the beach, but David has the last key and Purple still has 4.

Orange unlocks all of their blocks first and are ready to stack. Purple is on the 3rd block trying to unlock it.

Chris and David work on the puzzle for Orange. Zeke and Adam work on the puzzle. Right now it looks neck and neck. And out of nowhere, Purple gets it right and wins. Poor David :( At least he isn't the reason they lost. They were in it, the others just figured out the puzzle first.

Reward
Hannah is so psyched for her first food reward. She did feel guilty about those that were left on the beach. She told the others to keep their voices down because the others at camp would be able to hear them.

Bret is glad to have won the reward with Zeke. Zeke is closer to Chris, so he wanted to make that bond.

The waiter comes out with letters from home. Adam bursts into tears. So happy for him! That has to mean so much to him to find out how his mom is doing.

David is kind of breaking down emotionally. He said he's been craving pizza and beer for days. Ken asked him how he was doing because he was genuinely concerned for him. David didn't really want to talk about it because he didn't want to cry again. He said he is so appreciative of everyone's encouragement. It's really changed him as a person. David was glad to reconnect with Ken and said he wants to sit final 3 with him and that hasn't changed since their time together earlier in the game.

David thinks that the Chris/Bret/Sunday threesome needs to be broken up. They bring in Jess and they think they should vote out Chris. Jess is OK with that because her and Chris have never really gotten along.

Immunity Challenge
Challenge: stand on a narrow beam while balancing a statue with a pole - but horizontally...not vertically like the challenge that took out our beloved Joe. They will move farther away to more narrow parts of the beam in intervals.

Ken has ants crawling on him as the challenge begins. What?! Yeah, that's going to make it just a little hard to concentrate.

Order of elimination:

1. Hannah
2. Ken

Adam says that Ken's ants moved to him. And then like dominos...

3. Sunday
4. Chris
5. Will
6. Jay
7. Bret

After Jay falls, he wipes his eyes and said an ant crawled in there. Wow, never before have ants been a contributing factor.

8. Adam
9. Jess - she looked really solid

Down to Zeke and David - quite the unlikely pair. Zeke is struggling, while David looks really solid. Zeke is all over the place moving around but he saves it every time. David starts shaking and just when you think his statue is going to fall, Zeke can't hold on any longer and he falls off the beam.

10. Zeke

Way to go David! What a big moment for him! That's so great to see him take down all of those athletic people. It was cool to see Ken so happy for him.

Vinaka Camp
Jay is worried because he doesn't know what's going on.

Sunday is glad that her group is serious about wanting to vote out Jess. Chris thinks Zeke and his people are with them. They hope to convince Jay he is going so he'll play the idol.

David and Zeke talk and David tells him he wants Chris out. Zeke is close with Chris, but he wants the power. He is hoping to pit the Gen-Xers against each other. Zeke tells David that Chris wants Jess out. David tells Jess that Chris wants her out. Jess tells Adam what Chris is planning. Adam thinks that Zeke is with them,but he's not 100% sure.

Zeke tells Hannah that both sides think they are pulling off a blindside. He has options and it will be interesting to see which way he goes.

Tribal Council
Jay felt like a lone wolf and he still feels like he's on the outs. David said there are different voting blocks in play. He said there could be voting blocks working together. Hannah says she thinks they are actually #TrustClusters. Hannah is beside herself because Jeff just repeated a term that she made up. LOL

Jeff asks if anyone thinks that something they've done could get them votes. Jess said she had a run-in with Gen-Xers way back. Chris knew what she was talking about - when she blindsided him and Bret and voted out Paul. He said you have to have a short memory in the game and she has nothing to worry about - keeping up the ruse to get Jay to use his idol.

The Votes
Jay does NOT play his idol!

Chris
Jess
Chris
Jess
Chris
Jess
Chris
Jess

Chris

#Blindside! Smart move, Jay. He read the room and played it smart. Jay is all smiles, but I think he still has a very rough road ahead of him. They weren't gunning for him tonight, but next vote they could be.
