Challenge: The Plank
The final four will stand next to each other on a set of four planks. One plank will be removed every 10 minutes until they got down to one plank. The last person standing earns a spot in the Final Two.
Additional Stipulation: The first player to fall off will be eliminated from the game for good. The next two people who fall off will face off in another challenge to earn their spot in the final two.
Winner: Vanessa Marawa

Challenge: Water Obstacle Course
Starting from a tower in the water, the contestants will cross a balance beam, climb a rope ladder, and walk over a submerged plank to retrieve a key. They will then make their way back and place their key. Once they have collected three keys, they will head to a raft and unlock a treasure chest containing puzzle pieces. The first person to use their pieces to solve the pyramid puzzle wins.
Winner: Jacinda Louw

Voting Confessionals[]

ZAS1 brigitte t
Brigitte
(voting for Vanessa) My friend, I know I promised not to write your name down again, but in this case I'll make an exception. I think you did extremely well, when nobody gave you a chance, you picked yourself up and you've dragged yourself through it. You did well.
ZAS1 lezel t
Lezel
(voting for Jacinda) I'm really happy that you're someone else that agrees that, uh, it's just a game, and that you don't always have to be emotionally involved, um, to play hard, um, and to play well. So, I have great respect for you, and, yeah, I hope this takes you where you need to go.
ZAS1 gareth t
Gareth
(voting for Jacinda) It is a game, and you played hard. You played it honestly up until the point where I felt everything was a bit fuzzy, but it's just a game, and you deserve this more than anyone else up there.
ZAS1 zayn t
Zayn
(voting for Vanessa) Survivor's all about heart. You had it in abundance. As the game got tough, you got harder, and you got all the street cred you need. Much respect, much love.
ZAS1 mzi t
Mzi
(voting for Vanessa) I've seen in you that you have the ability to go out there and change a lot of people's lives, and you've also shown me the truth of the statement that victory can be to the swift, not necessarily the strongest.
