Challenges[]

Immunity Challenge: Big Oar Deal
The tribes would play a lacrosse-like game on the water. Each tribe member would be on a raft and have a paddle. Each round, Probst would toss a ball into the water. The castaways would paddle around the playing field, using the paddle to pass the ball from one tribemate to another. The first tribe to throw the ball three times into their opponents' goal would win.
Winner: Kota

S17 matty t
Matty
(voting against Jacquie) Jacquie, this wasn't my decision and sorry I had to do this, but, uh, good luck.
S17 ace t
Ace
(voting against Kelly) You know you voted for me last time, there's nothing like returning the favor.
S17 crystal t
Crystal
(voting against Jacquie) It was great knowing you, but you gotta go.
S17 kelly t
Kelly
(voting against Jacquie) Sorry.
S17 ken t
Ken
(voting against Jacquie) Jacquie, I'm really sorry, but it's so hard to trust anyone right now, especially if they just came to our tribe. I wish I got to know you a lot sooner.
S17 gc t
GC
(voting against Jacquie) My vote is for Jacquie, I don't really want to cast this vote, but unfortunately, this is how my girl wants to vote tonight. I think you are a strong player and it would have been smarter to keep you but unfortunately, that's just how it is.

Final Words[]

S17 jacquie bw
Jacquie
So, I just got voted out of Survivor, and I'm so upset. I'm… I… kind of thought I saw that coming, if I would have stayed in one more round, I feel like I could have made it all the way in this game. So they were probably smart in saving their own butts. But I'll be waiting for when they get kicked off.
