Story
The boys have a 3-2 numbers advantage over the girls, leaving the girls in danger.
Day 34
While the contestants are at the Reward Challenge the firewood that Butch Lockley had collected caught alight and set the camp on fire, destroying the shelter and everybody but Heidi Strobel's personal items. Matthew von Ertfelda wins the reward, which is a new car and a barbecue. He chooses to bring Rob Cesternino along to the barbecue since the two are close allies. After returning from the challenge the whole tribe is shocked to see the camp has been burnt down. Heidi feels guilty due to the fact that her personal items were not destroyed while everyone else has nothing left.
