Challenges

• Reward
• Immunity

Challenge: Human Ball
The tribes will be joined by two SuperSport presenters, Derek Alberts for Selatan and Carol Tshabalala for Utara. The SuperSport representative will be strapped into a wooden spherical cage and will have to guide four blindfolded castaways in rolling the sphere through a maze. At the end of the maze, they will be joined by two other non-blindfolded tribe members in guiding the blindfolded members in solving a table maze. The first tribe to finish the table maze wins.
Reward: A pool party with a braai feast.
Winners: Utara

Challenge: Cannon Ski-Ball
Each tribe has 12 cannonballs and 5 tiles to smash. The tribes will work together to move a chute so that the cannonball breaks a tile when it rolls down the chute. The first tribe to break all five tiles, or have broken more tiles by the time they exhaust their balls, wins.
Winners: Selatan

Voting Confessionals

	Stephen	“	(voting against David) Dave, it's been a pleasure to get to know you, and I'm really sorry to see you go now. Cheers.	”

	David	“	(voting against Stephen) It's all about strategy, not feelings. Pure, pure strategy.	”

Final Words

	Stephen	“	Yeah, it's… not a nice feeling. I don't think it's the best strategic decision on their behalf. What's upsetting me most right now is that I wasn't able to play on an individual level post-merge. I think I really would've loved to take part in some of those challenges and done incredibly well. I think it was my time to shine; I wasn't finished playing. I don't regret anything from the game. If I was to play again, maybe I'd… do a little better in picking the people that I trusted, and I guess that's the- that's the only thing that burned me in the end. And yeah, that's unfortunate.	”
