Challenges

Reward/Immunity Challenge: Swing Break
The tribes will use an ax to chop through a log, breaking a rope to drop a large boulder. They will then maneuver the boulder under a cargo net and hoist it up a steep ramp. Once the tribe has gotten the boulder to the finish line, they will then use another rope to hoist the ball up and use it as a wrecking ball to break four wooden targets. The first tribe to break all their targets wins.
Reward: Pizza, beer and soft drinks.
Winner: Yontau

Voting Confessionals

• First Vote
• Revote

No voting confessionals were shown in the first vote.

Tejan's confessional was shown during Thoriso's final words.

	Tejan	“	(voting against Thoriso) I'm so sorry, Thoriso. […] But it's perhaps too soon to ruffle feathers. […] I would have really loved to have worked further with you in this game.	”

Final Words

	Thoriso	“	I definitely played a far better game than I did the last time I came out because I recognized the value of human connection and that is something very real and a critical component of this game. I just couldn't bring myself to write Felix's name down and had I done that, he would've gone home instead of me, so I guess I'm not as clinical as I thought. […] I'm just thrilled I got to play again. I think that's the main thing.	”
