Challenges

• Reward
• Immunity

Challenge: In The Trenches
In one-on-one face offs, castaways will run through a trench to attempt to ring a bell on the opposite side, while their opponent attempts to stop them. The first person to ring their bell earns a point for their tribe. The first tribe to five wins.
Reward: A crate of comfort items for each tribe member
Additional Stipulation: One member of the winning tribe would be responsible for passing out the items; once someone receives an item, it is considered theirs.

Winner: Contenders

Challenge: Steady As She Throws
Nine members of each tribe will need to first dig under a log. Then, they will carry a plank through a series of obstacles to a fulcrum. Using the plank, they will form a see-saw with the fulcrum in order to raise one tribemate up to reach a set of sandbags. Once they have all of their sandbags, five members of the tribe will hold up poles and the two members that did not compete in the obstacle course will attempt to land sandbags on the poles. The first tribe to get a sandbag on all five poles wins.

Winner: Contenders

Voting Confessionals

	Luke	“	(voting against Susie) Susie, I'd like to, uh- wish you good luck on your next swim... back to Australia!	”

	Janine	“	(voting against Susie) You aren't an all-rounder, you're just not. I do think you're the weakest link in the tribe and I want to win challenges.	”

	David	“	(voting against Susie) Susie girl, I'm a man of my word... outside the game of Survivor.	”

	ET	“	(voting against Janine) Sorry, Janine. The alliance of seven was made on Day 1, I wish you were in it.	”

	Pia	“	(voting against Susie) I need to try and find an alliance, and I'm not in yours, so...	”

	Ross	“	(voting against Susie) Loyalty's one thing, but a promise is a promise.	”

	Susie	“	(voting against Janine) If you think this is a game of challenges and winning challenges, well here you've slowed us down with your strategy.	”

	Steven	“	(voting against Janine) Janine, you're definitely not the weakest link in our team at the moment, and it sucks writing down your name. But unfortunately, we have to stick to the plan for now. Sorry.	”

	Nova	“	(voting against Janine) I'm voting for you today Janine because I think you've cost us the game today.	”

	Simon	“	(voting against Janine) This is purely on the back of an alliance that formed, I'm sorry it's your name tonight.	”

	Abbey	“	(voting against Susie) Unfortunately, it's you for me tonight, and purely because I need to keep this tribe strong. We need to beat the Contenders in challenges.	”

Final Words

	Susie	“	I felt like my alliance was really strong, but obviously it's cracked, it's broken! I know ET and Nova, and Simon, they definitely had my back, but the others? They all just like, y'know- went the opposite. So much for loyalty, nobody cares! It's really a rollercoaster, so whoever wins this is just brilliant, that's what I think.	”
