Jalapao ~ Steve scratched Taj’s back. He helped Taj find a hidden immunity idol. It was found under the tree mail. It was put in Steve’s pants for less exposure.
Timbira ~ Brendan & Sierra talked about 4-alliance. She confronted him for not letting her know about 4-alliance. Brendan said he meant to tell her, but he didn’t have a chance. Sierra was glad he told her. High-Fives followed.
Reward Challenge ~ pulling the rope of the giant “thread stool” to make the contestants dizzy before they ran across the narrow balance beams to the mat. Jalapao made 3 points, so it won! Brendan was chosen to go to Exile Island again! He chose Steve since he was part of 4-alliance.
Jalapao ~ the happy winners arrived camp. A big sign read, “Charmin Cafe”. Lots of pastry, coffee, and juices were on the table! There was a new outhouse with lots of Charmin toilet paper! Even there was a sink and shower!! The happy campers feasted on pastry and drinks. What’s more - they got letters from home! They read with teary eyes.
Timbira ~ not much to eat. They wondered why Brendan chose Steve. Rain! The tribe mates had to hide under the shelter during heavy rain. Erinn complained about Coach’s attitude.
Exile Island ~ Brendan and Steve shook their hands. Brendan was excited to tell Steve about 4-alliance. Steve told Brendan that he had an idol. Brendan told him that he had an idol, too. They high-fived. Steve confided that he couldn’t trust people or put his faith in 4-alliance. He had to be careful.
Jalapao ~ Sydney said she dreamed about her boyfriend and could not be without him. Spencer said he was not in hurry and would enjoy his freedom first. Spencer confided that he didn’t tell his tribe mates that he was gay which could affected the game.
Immunity Challenge ~ Steve & Brendan were back. Lacrosse-like challenge. J.T. scored for Jalapao while he lost his tooth! Both tribes scored 4 points each, but Timbira scored 5 points, so it won immunity again.
Jalapao ~ Taj was upset and vented about the immunity losses. She wanted Spencer out. Steve said he would prefer to stay with his idol, but he said he would keep Taj cuz of 4-alliance. Spencer pleaded that he didn’t want to be voted out.
Tribal Council ~ after discussions, Spencer showed his Taj ballot. Taj showed her Spencer ballot. Jeff revealed many Spencer ballots and one Taj ballot, prompting Spencer out of game as 5th person from Survivor: Tocantins.
My Thoughts ~ I thought Steve would use the hidden immunity idol to save Taj. When Steve & Taj didn’t give up the idol, I was concerned that Taj may be voted off. I’m glad she was still in the game! Whew! I feel bad for J.T. to have broken his tooth. I hoped Timbira would lose immunity so that Coach could be voted off. Oh well.
