Challenges[]

Immunity Challenge: Cling Ons
Six tribe members will stand against a wall, supported by a series of numbered pegs. Meanwhile, two tribe members will use sandbags to strike at a wall of numbered coconuts; if they knock over a coconut, their opponents must remove the corresponding numbered peg from their wall, making it harder to keep their balance. Once four sandbags have been thrown, the other tribe takes their turn to knock over the coconuts, and the cycle repeats until every member of one tribe has fallen off their wall. The last person standing in the challenge wins for their tribe.
Winner: Brains

Voting Confessionals[]

Ursula and Noonan were shown writing down each other's names. Part of Noonan's confessional was shown during Ursula's final words. Full voting confessionals were posted on the Channel 10 website.[2]

AJ
(voting against Ursula) Out of my four hostages, I think you're that I should send overboard here. But, Paulie might have just cooked his game. So, let's hope people stick to the plan.
Karin
(voting against Ursula) You're a great competitor, just not a good player.
Paulie
(voting against Ursula) I hope you'll still invite me around for some arancini.
Kaelan
(voting against Ursula) Sorry, I tried to help you but AJ gets a bit stuck in his ways.
Logan
(voting against Ursula) I'm so sorry, I was outvoted tonight. Your name is not the one I wanted to put down.
Kristin
(voting against Noonan) Noonan, we haven't worked together so far, and I have no intention to work with you.
Noonan
(voting against Ursula) You are one incredible competitor and a crazy cool mum. But, third times the charm.
Ursula
(voting against Noonan) Because I'm sick and tired of your lies.

Final Words[]

Ursula
Seeing my name on the chopping block tonight was nothing new. I have been at the bottom pretty much from the start. I've had to plead my case to everyone, but Noonan got me in the end, but everyone's true colours will always come out. They'll see that Noonan is not who Noonan says she is, they'll see that Paulie is not who Paulie says he is and they'll see AJ's pulling the reins.
