Day 38
All the members of the final 4 were pumped for the final immunity challenge, as it would be the most important. At first, everyone except Natalie seemed to have a shot at winning the challenge, but shortly after, Phillip's chances severely dropped as well, only really leaving Ashley and Boston Rob in contention of winning. When they reached the final puzzle part, they "helped" each other out, but both stated that they didn't have anything figured out. In the end, Boston Rob won the immunity challenge, making it his 9th immunity challenge win overall. Boston Rob told Phillip and Natalie to vote off Ashley. Phillip was completely on board; Natalie, however, was unsure. Ashley pleaded twice to Natalie to vote off Phillip and to alert her if her name comes up, but Natalie didn't tell her when Rob told Natalie to vote off Ashley. In the end, Ashley was voted off 3-1 and she became the 9th and final member of the jury. Natalie shed some tears in her friend's departure.
