Challenges

Reward

Challenge: United We Stand
Castaways are divided into two teams of five. Teams will have to transport one member using two poles from one platform to another. Once the member made it to the second platform, the team will have to swim to another, much smaller platform where they much get all members on the platform. The team who gets all of their members on the final platform with their feet at or above the platform, wins.
Reward: Ice cream feast delivered to camp.
Winners:Yellow Team

Immunity

Challenge: Uncomfortably Numb
The castaways must balance their feet on a very narrow perch attached to a pole, while grasping two handles located behind them and above their head. If at any point they let go of the handles or a foot comes off the perch, then they are out of the challenge. The last person left standing wins immunity.
Additional Stipulation: A while after the five-minute mark in the challenge, Jeff will offer the castaways with a feast of fast food and beverages. The offer is one-time only, and no more food was offered after the 10 second window closed.

Final Words

“	First and last Tribal Council. Of course, it turns out to be bittersweet and I deserve it. I was beyond confident tonight. This was a blindside, for sure. I just didn’t see what they were pulling and I have to give them props for that. I'll still be overconfident and cocky and arrogant, but I should’ve punched before they did, and I just didn’t. That’s all.	”
—Nick Maiorano
