Challenges[]

Challenge: Roll With It
One castaway would be strapped into a wooden spherical cage and would have to guide two blindfolded teammates in maneuvering the cage through a series of obstacles to a labyrinth-like table maze at the end of the course. The castaway inside the cage must guide their blindfolded teammates in solving the table maze. The first team to finish the table maze wins.
Reward: A visit to the Survivor sanctuary with iced coffee and an assortment of pastries.
Winners: Blue Team (Cody Assenmacher, Karla Cruz Godoy, and Owen Knight)

Challenge: Battle of Evermore
The castaways must race through an obstacle course while collecting a bag of number tiles. Using the number tiles, they must solve a combination lock to release a key. Afterwards, they must crawl under a net and race up a ramp. At the top, they would use the key to unlock a basket of puzzle pieces, which they must use to piece together a hanging bat puzzle. The first castaway to finish their puzzle wins.
Winner: Cassidy Clark

Final Words[]

S43 cody bw
Cody
Heart is crushed, it is fricking crushed. I can't believe this just happened. My main man Jesse completely backstabbed me and it's a damn good play. I can't fault him on that, I should've known better. I'm going to continue to have the time of my life. I'll keep trucking, I'm going to keep smiling, but [raising both middle fingers] f*** you Jesse, f*** you.
