The reward challenge is good enough to sing for when Jeff announces what is on the line for the winners. At tribal it's a toss-up when two players on the bottom begin to target each other.
Tribal Council was a complete shock. David was my number one ally, and he's gone. So, yeah, it feels demoralizing. Eva, Shauhin, Kyle and Joe… all the bulky, hulky, strong, herculean people completely played me and David. Ahhh, at the bottom again.
I really like Mary, and I don't want to have bad blood between us. That's why I'm being straightforward and telling the truth, but I've picked my people I want to work with, and she's not part of that. I have a strong four that I'm working with now, being myself, Joe, Shauhin and Kyle. We really hold a lot of power because I've built up an artillery of weapons to protect me and my allies, I have the Hidden Immunity Idol, I have a Safety Without Power. And with all that, we can get to that final four and everyone else can't really do much about it.
The revolution has been started. The big people are about to get ate by the piranhas, and it's gonna be too sweet. They won't see it coming because they're so big-headed that they think everything is all, like, peaches and cream, and it's not. Really, it's as brown and dirty as the coconut I opened last night.
We're not going out without a fight, and Joe's strong ass needs to go. So, yeah, we are part of the people who are standing up for what's right. We don't have the 300-pound biceps, but what we have is spirit, and spirit goes a long way.
Mitch is hilarious, likeable, fun to be around. Like, the mailman thing is just unbelie… that's one… that's the hardest I've ever laughed. Mitch is in a pretty good spot right now. He's a free agent in this game, along with Kamilla. And they are the ones who we’re trying to keep the closest because if Kamilla and Mitch wake up and realize that they're on the outside of the four - me, Kyle, Eva and Joe - maybe they'll just start thinking, 'we need to make a move and we need to make a move now.' So we want to get to those free agents first.
The group that has probably the most power right now are myself, Eva, Kyle and Shauhin that have kind of locked up as a four. We linked in Mitch and Kamilla. Survivor is a dog-eat-dog world, and you feel bad saying Mary and Star are at the bottom, but they are. They are.
We got eight days left in the game. I just think we're in a great spot, and I've never felt so solid with my alliance. We're right there, and we got a shot at getting to the end.
This is how you know Mitch asleep. It will be silent for, like, three seconds, and then, you'll just hear… (snoring noises) Bro, I can't take that snoring no more.
The only reason why I'm tempted to keep Mitch is because we need him for the numbers. Right now, me, Mary and Kamilla are on the bottom, but we're not going out without a fight. So I have to convince Mitch to be a part of the revolution.
Star is like, 'would you be open to go to rocks?' And if any other people were coming to me with this, I would for sure be thinking about it. But when it's Star… hah, it's the biggest joke in this game. She's all over the place, and she literally just wrote my name down at the last Tribal council.
I think the alliance running this game is Joe, Eva, Shauhin and Kyle. I do 100 percent trust Kyle, but I'm definitely not part of the core alliance. I'm being used as just a number. That's not cool with me. It just feels like they just want to take competitors to the end, and I'm like, 'I'm not physical at all. So either I can sit here and get picked off or I can flip and go join the people at the bottom.'
The thing is, me and Kyle are, like, number ones in this game. Nobody knows that. He's always sharing information to me, I'm sharing whatever information I can with him.
Kamilla wants to take a shot at Joe, who's a very good friend of mine. I've shared things with Joe that just go beyond this game. You know, I've talked to Joe about some of the darkest times in my life. And he's been there for me. On top of that, I have burned literally every jury member to date. So, this is where I'm drawing the line. I'm done betraying people's trust.
I owe a lot to Kamilla, who I've navigated this game with, um, so gracefully. And so, maybe I try my best to get her at least a chance to take a shot at Joe. I'm not gonna give her the final number, but I'll let her pull the trigger. And if she misses, that's on her.
This is an incredibly tricky part of the game, because I am smack dab in the middle. When you look at Survivor, you think that that's, like, the perfect way to play, um, because, you know, you have so many options. But you also need to think about people's feelings. Our season's been about emotional connections. And, I don't know if strategy and backstabbing and those sorts of traditional Survivor game moves are what the jury's looking for.
I feel like Kyle dumped me on a date and took three other people out in front of me, which makes me think, 'does he love me? Like, are we tight?' Like, I'm disappointed with Kyle. And I feel like I just can't catch a break in this game.
This reward is amazing. We're going through this channel, these gorgeous islands up around us, in Fiji. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We know we will be back home very soon, and it will be like a dream, and we will want to come back here immediately. So, just taking it all in and, like, trying to hold it. We are a lucky bunch, for sure.
Food changes everything. Without food, you're so depleted, you can barely stand up. I don't think people at home realize that one meal actually does make all of the difference. Shauhin pelting me with a handful of whipped cream made me feel so joyous. Obviously, I'm big fans of Kyle and Shauhin. And Kamilla is so cool in her own right. We're just having a great time. And I don't picture anyone trying to make a move on me or my core people. I feel unconcerned with the next few votes.
I am genuinely happy for us that we're on this reward. But every single decision today was a strategy decision, especially the people that I did not choose for the reward. I need Mitch, Star and Mary as pissed off as they can possibly be. And that way, they might go with Kamilla so she has a chance to get rid of Joe. I've kind of operated and played this game with little pushes. Everybody expects these big moves. But I think Survivor is a game that's won in the margins. And so, this is something I did for Kamilla to at least show that I'm at least trying to help her.
When my buddy Kyle didn't take me on that food reward, it kind of bothered me. It kind of bothered me. And I immediately told myself to shut up, I'm being paranoid. And I thought, maybe he's brilliant in keeping me back here to babysit. Because if he had picked the alliance of four, what would probably happen is smart Mary would be all over Mitch and Star, and that could be a problem. But instead, this is an opportunity for me to connect with people, 'cause this game, to me, is about relationships and numbers. And if I can make it to the end, I'm gonna need friends on the jury.
Joe basically tells me that David went home because of me, that everybody thinks that I got into David's head and turned him. And that everybody was like, 'Mary is this mastermind and is manipulating David,' which is ridiculous. But at this point, everyone thinks I'm the villain.
Clearly, I have a target on my back. And Joe… he's doing jury management. He is thinking he's gonna vote me out and then I'm gonna give him the million dollars, because he was honest with me, which is hilarious. But without a doubt, I'm in a bad way. And my only chance at safety is if this weird-ass motley crew of me, Kamilla, Star and Mitch - if we can band together, force them to go to rocks, hopefully, they'll flip on each other.
I was hopeful that Kyle might pick me instead. It's, like, me being part of the six like, is that even real? I feel like I'm having to humble myself and just do what people are asking me to do, just to make it to the next day. And I'm tired of it.
Yes, Star and Mary wrote my name down and I don't trust them at all, but you have to play a fluid game. These people have four votes, we have four. And it's, like, I don't want to play a scared game here.
Mary wants to vote Joe out. Then at some point, it's like, 'come on, Mitch. Like, you have to make a move somewhere. Like, if you don't make a move now, you don't have a shot.'
I just feel really proud to win three Immunity Challenges. But this challenge is 100 percent made for any dad, because once the kids go to sleep, you cannot be the one that wakes the sleeping bear. That was it. Slow. Doorknob. Slow. So, this is for you, Jade and Jojo. Your dad's out here missing you. That's right. See you soon.
The Immunity Challenge was very, very, very, very bad. Joe won immunity, so, at this point, we need a backup plan. Something that shows the strong people, 'hey, we're not just gonna bow down easy. We're here to fight.'
Mitch told me that I need to play my shot in the dark. So my red flags definitely started going up. Unfortunately, when you're starting and creating or trying to do a revolution, you have people who are scared, weak. If you're not ready to play the game of Survivor, and you just want to sit down and let people pick you off, then you're on the wrong show, baby, 'cause the whole point of Survivor is fighting until you can stay alive, and keep fighting for the million-dollar prize.
For everyone sitting at home who's saying, 'come on, Mitch, you have to make a move, you have to make a move,' you can't make moves with people you don't trust. And I don't trust Mary or Star. As much as I want to make a move here, I just can't do it.
Mitch is the kind of player who wants to play it safe here, which sucks because if Mitch doesn't trust Star and Mitch doesn't trust Mary, then we don't have the numbers and we can't make this move.
Mary was like, 'are you down to get Kyle out?' And I'm like, 'yeah, I'm down to get him out.' When the truth is I would not get him out. Like, we're both each other's number ones. And so Mary going after Kyle is a big mistake. I really have zero faith in her. She's burned everyone here. I just don't trust her. And so I kind of need to throw Mary under the bus to ensure she goes home tonight.
This whole time, Kamilla's lying to my face, Mitch is basically saying, 'I don't know what's happening.' But the reality is Star and I definitely know that it's one of us tonight. I really like Star. But if it's between me and her, it's got to be her that goes.
I've got everything to lose tonight, 'cause I don't even have my shot in the dark. That was something I used at my third Tribal Council. So, at this point, I am fighting just to make it another day.
Going into Tribal, I'm definitely worried. The game of Survivor really shows you and pushes you to your limits. And sometimes, you need to just let it all out. At home, I love to rap. So, let me see what I got up in my tank. Oh this is nice. Let's see here. Mm, uh, uh, I said, mm, uh, uh, I said, mm, uh, uh, my enemies are plottin’, whoa, what, my enemies are plottin’, but where they at though, my enemies are plottin’, on me? On me? Now Mary, that girl been hangin’ since Vula, that girl been staying against Kamilla, on the other hand, she wanna make some plans but now nothin’, silence, and now I’m stuck here, tryna figure out how I can get outta this fiddle, hey hey, put me down for the final three, I wanna see a million dollars, that’s all me, first to sign the papers ‘cause you know it’s true, man Star’s coming through and not know what to do.
I would take out Mary tonight. She's dangerous. She could have won the challenge today. And she's desperate. No offense to Star, but Star's not gonna win any immunities anytime soon, I don't think.
I don't want to write Mary's name down. I really don't. But at the same time, I got to save myself in this game. And Mary is on a sinking ship on her own. And as much as I like Mary, Mary, baby, your boat sank when David left.
People are just such bad liars out here, but I see right through it. In fact, it makes me feel like I'm probably going home tonight. Like, my social game is pretty friggin' bomb. But with this group of people, it's not slapping, it's not hitting, it's not working. So, tonight is about self-preservation and eking out one more day on this island so that, hopefully, something will change the next day.

It was time to go, so they really snuffed me out bro. They really, really, really left me in the dust, yo, time to go. Uncle JP, baby my eviction letter said go man, time to go. Ya know what I came for? I came to win the million dollars, came to spit some bars, it's time to go, and now I gotta go, but that don't mean that the show ends down this road.
