Day 25
On Day 25, the tribe's food supply is running low. They're down to just one supply of rice, and stormy weather has made it impossible to fish. The tribe gets treemail about the reward challenge, telling them to divide themselves into pairs. The tribe decides to draw names out of a hat. Jerri ends up with Colby, while the other teams are Amber/Keith, Tina/Rodger, and Elisabeth/Nick. The challenge, an obstacle course, promises a majestic trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Jerri and Colby beat out Amber and Keith to claim the prize.

Day 26
Back at camp, the helicopter arrives to take Jerri and Colby to their reward. Jerri says that winning two rewards in a row may irk her tribemates, but "I couldn't give a flying crap." During a meal of sandwiches, fruit, and champagne, Jerri tries to flirt with Colby, but he ignores her come-ons. They then go snorkeling at the reef. Jerri calls it "one hell of a first date." Colby calls it a nice break from the game.

Day 27
When the duo returns to camp, Colby gives each tribe member a piece of coral that he took from the reef.

The Ogakors discuss which Kucha to target at the next vote. They agree on Nick, who is a challenge threat, though has also been feeling sick lately. The immunity challenge is a tug-of-war on platforms in the water. Two people will square off at a time. The final round ends up pitting Colby against Nick. After a hard-fought battle, Colby falls in the water and Nick wins a much-needed immunity.

With Nick safe, Rodger and Elisabeth feel vulnerable as the only other Kuchas. Jerri and Amber settle on booting Elisabeth. But Colby, Keith, and Tina are unsure. They know that it may be strategically safer to stick with Ogakor, but they don't like the idea of keeping the annoying Jerri over the extremely kind Elisabeth. At Tribal Council, the tables are finally turned on Jerri, and she is shocked to find herself booted by a 6-2 vote. "Checkmate," says Jerri as she gets her torch snuffed. "You guys got me." Jerri will then join Alicia on the Jury.

Trivia

 * During a reward trip, Colby broke an Australian law by breaking off coral from the Great Barrier Reef which could have resulted in a fine of AU$110,000. The helicopter pilot involved in the reward trip also broke an Australian law as he flew over sea bird rookeries. Survivor's producer Mark Burnett apologized on behalf of Colby and the production team after the season had aired.
