Immunity Challenge: Triage

Using a triangular-shaped stretcher called a "travois," each tribe must locate their tribemates at the accident locations and bring them back, one by one, to the "first aid tent." First tribe to rescue all of its members and cross the finish line wins.

Reward: Additional camping supplies and a vanity kit.

Winner: Kucha

Immunity Challenge: The Maze

Each tribe must race against the other, collecting five medallions in a specified order while navigating through a giant maze. First tribe to collect all five medallions in order and to exit the maze wins.

Winner: Ogakor

Day 13
On Day 13, all sorts of things are happening at Ogakor camp. For one, the nearby forest fire continues to rage, sending waves of smoke towards camp. For another, Colby's tribal council switcheroo has blindsided Jerri and Amber, who are now in the minority in their tribe. Jerri tries to convince Colby to stick with her instead of Tina and Keith, but Colby is non-committal.

On Kucha, it's time for the tribe to feast on another chicken. Kimmi again voices her displeasure about killing the chickens. She and Alicia get into a heated argument. Alicia says that Kimmi is complaining too much, while Kimmi accuses Alicia of being rude. "Don't wave your finger in my face," says Kimmi. "I will ALWAYS wave my finger in your face," Alicia retorts. The encounter increases the tension between the two. Meanwhile, the rest of the tribe has gotten annoyed by Kimmi's tendency to not bathe. Kimmi says she has no intention of bathing in the "incredibly gross" water.

Day 14
Each team gets treemail telling them to build a three-sided stretcher called a travois. They then use the travois for the reward challenge, in which two people must rescue their three tribemates by carrying them on the travois. In a close race, Kucha wins yet again, sending Ogakor's Amber into tears. "I'm so tired of losing," she laments. Kucha wins shampoo, toothbrushes, and spices.

Back at Kucha camp, the tribe members use the reward to clean themselves up, even Kimmi. They boast about their domination of Ogakor thus far. On Ogakor, the demoralized tribe prepares for the next challenge.

Day 15
The tribe reconvened for their fifth Immunity Challenge. From the start, Ogakor works together more smoothly than Kucha does, and Ogakor finally pulls through to snap their challenge losing streak. The tribemates celebrate. Back at Kucha, Alicia and Jeff think they have a consensus to vote off Kimmi. Elsewhere, though, Elisabeth and Rodger note that Alicia has a strong personality, and that the tribe might get along better without her.

At Tribal Council, though, it's unanimous-- Kimmi takes six votes (her vote is for Jeff) and gets the boot. Kimmi is the fifth victim of the Australian Outback.

Voting Confessionals
''Jeff, Michael, Rodger and Nick's confessionals are only available on DVD. '' "kucha"

- My vote is for Kimmi. She and I have not get along from the beginning. And the whole food thing is really becoming an issue that separates her from the rest of the tribe. So it's time to let her go.

"kucha"

- We need to keep the tribe strong. There is too much split going on, so for a strong Kucha, this is the best vote.

"kucha"

- This should be Alicia, but I hear other people voting for Jeff.

Final Words
"kucha"

- I knew for a long time that my head was on the chopping block. It doesn't surprise me at all. I am glad that I stayed true to myself and my morals. I know that Alicia and I have not gotten along since Day One. If that's what they felt they had to do then, you know, power to the team!

Trivia

 * Jeff Probst claimed that the maze they used at the Immunity Challenge was made up up 46 tons of lumber, 3 miles of burlap and took two weeks to build.
 * This episode's Immunity Challenge was the third time a tribe with a numbers advantage was not required to sit anybody out, following the bug-eating challenge of the previous season.
 * In both of their times at Tribal Council, Kucha suffered a rainfall.
