—Episode Synopsis

Challenges

• Reward
• Immunity

Challenge: The Gauntlet
One at a time, each tribe member has to traverse a rope swing, three rolling barrels, a balance beam, a 'wobbly bridge', and two-rope hand-over-hand bridge to retrieve a pennant, followed by returning to the starting line. Meanwhile, two members of each tribe use swinging bags to try and knock their opponents into the water as they cross the three middle obstacles. First to ten wins.
Reward: Fishing gear.
Additional Stipulation: If Ulong wins, they will get flint.
Winner: Ulong

Challenge: Heads Up
The two tribes must swim to a pontoon, dive down ten feet to a rope threaded through a barrel, and pull on it to drag a foot locker fifty feet until it is next to the barrel. They will then open it to release eight mess kits, take them back to a solving station on shore, and place them in the right order to spell the Morse code (which was given with Tree Mail for teams to memorize) for "IMMUNITY". The first tribe to do so wins.
Winner: Koror

Voting Confessionals

	Ibrehem	“	(voting against Kim) Uh, Ashlee was the one that picked me to be on this tribe, so I just feel like I have to be somewhat loyal to her right now.	”

	Jeff	“	(voting against Ashlee) I'm a man of my word, and plus, you just bug the hell out of me.	”

Final Words

	Ashlee	“	I'm just so incredibly grateful to have had this opportunity. I'm not surprised by the votes tonight. I think that they all sensed I was ready to go home. The only regret I have is that I did not use the excuse that I was cold to cuddle with Ibrehem because he sure is a cutie.	”
