00:00:01Previously...
00:00:02Oh, big push from Barron, big push from Gowdy!
00:00:06And Harry's done it!
00:00:07In an epic season of Australian Survivor so far...
00:00:10Go, go, go, go!
00:00:11Ben is a monster!
00:00:13Please!
00:00:15And he makes it!
00:00:1724 players hit the beach, hungry for redemption.
00:00:21Oh, ho, ho, ho!
00:00:23Just take it!
00:00:26Go, go, go, go!
00:00:27They clawed their way through brutal challenges.
00:00:30Simon, give this one to me, mate.
00:00:31Simon, drop!
00:00:32Don't drop.
00:00:33I can't, mate.
00:00:35Shocking blindsides.
00:00:36My dirty, Harry.
00:00:38Don.
00:00:40Try to spoil it.
00:00:41And savage betrayals.
00:00:43Beauty and the beasts.
00:00:45It's a fairy tale.
00:00:47We're taking the game into our own hands.
00:00:49That no one saw coming.
00:00:53Asha.
00:00:55Simon is dead to me.
00:00:58Last time.
00:00:59I've been eaten up by paranoia that Faith and Keeley are going to turn on me.
00:01:04Mark was losing faith in his strongest alliance.
00:01:07There's only four votes.
00:01:09We've got three boys, load on Faith, and Faith will go home.
00:01:12I love it.
00:01:13And with an idol in his pocket, he was ready to make his move.
00:01:18I wanna hug.
00:01:19He's so hope alive.
00:01:22Executing a brutal blindside.
00:01:25Faith.
00:01:25Faith never saw coming.
00:01:3113 are left.
00:01:33Who will be going home tonight?
00:01:53I know this might be too soon, but I'm gonna throw you in your face, guys.
00:02:02Oh my god, that was sick as a survivor fan.
00:02:05That was so sick, and I'm still here.
00:02:10Oh my god.
00:02:13Sorry, I shouldn't be cheering so much when people are sad.
00:02:17I know that's really offensive.
00:02:20Shocked.
00:02:22Really, really shocked by what's just taken place.
00:02:25I can't believe Faith was voted off tonight.
00:02:29That was a serious blindside.
00:02:31Yeah.
00:02:31Can I put something out there, just in case it's not clear?
00:02:35Yeah.
00:02:36I was totally in on all of that.
00:02:38Really?
00:02:38Yeah.
00:02:41Whoa.
00:02:42Enlighten me.
00:02:43I wouldn't mind doing one-on-one.
00:02:45Okay, yeah.
00:02:46Whoa, okay.
00:02:47Wow.
00:02:48Wow.
00:02:49Crazy.
00:02:50That was a totally mind-blowing.
00:02:53I'm not disappointed.
00:02:54I'm not angry.
00:02:56If anything, I'm thinking, how do I now one-up Mark?
00:03:00Because we were even there, and now he's really taken a big step up, and I've got to match that.
00:03:09Crazy.
00:03:10Do you have any thoughts?
00:03:12Yeah, I have a few.
00:03:14Go on.
00:03:16It was a very good move, so kudos to you.
00:03:19Oh, thank you.
00:03:20Yeah, I'm very impressed.
00:03:22Very impressed.
00:03:23But I'm going to leave it there, because I don't want to even get a big head.
00:03:25Oh, that's fine.
00:03:27Julie basically said to me, I'm going to put you on the jury, and you will vote for me until
00:03:33we end.
00:03:34And I was like...
00:03:36She's so frank.
00:03:37Our interests were diverging.
00:03:39Sad faith is gone.
00:03:41Me too.
00:03:41But it was a really good move.
00:03:46Stop it.
00:03:47I know that you do this.
00:03:49Like, it's so...
00:03:50What do you mean?
00:03:52You're giving very heartfelt compliments to my head.
00:03:56I can see it.
00:03:57In this instance, I'll let it slide.
00:03:59But please stop it.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:01Bring it in, bring it in.
00:04:02Yeah.
00:04:02All right.
00:04:05I missed you too, mate.
00:04:08We should pour one out for Faith.
00:04:10Yeah, we will.
00:04:11Let's have a toast.
00:04:12To Faith.
00:04:13We miss you.
00:04:14We miss you.
00:04:14We love you.
00:04:15We love you, darling.
00:04:16Bye.
00:04:17Pour it out.
00:04:18Oh, yeah.
00:04:18Let's go drink it.
00:04:42Come on in.
00:04:47Oh, gosh.
00:04:49There's a lot of different barrels.
00:04:51Wow, this is fun.
00:04:53It's giving endurance, isn't it?
00:04:56Aaron, getting their first look at the new bounty tribe.
00:05:01Sal.
00:05:01Sal is there.
00:05:02Who is it?
00:05:05Faith?
00:05:06Faith.
00:05:09What?
00:05:10What?
00:05:12What?
00:05:12What?
00:05:13What?
00:05:13What?
00:05:14What in the world?
00:05:15Wow.
00:05:15Wow.
00:05:16Crazy.
00:05:18Oh, my God.
00:05:19The guy.
00:05:24Hey, Ben.
00:05:26You're surprised to see Faith gone.
00:05:28I'm shocked.
00:05:29I am...
00:05:30I don't know what to fill.
00:05:32I'm like, what the hell?
00:05:33I've never been more shocked in my life.
00:05:36Goddamn.
00:05:39Geely, you want to fill them in?
00:05:45I think I'm the right person to fill everyone in.
00:05:48Who is the right person?
00:05:50Could be me.
00:05:54Faith is a good friend.
00:05:56Good ally.
00:05:57But, uh, she's an honest person.
00:06:00And she shot herself in the foot when she told me a few things, so...
00:06:05I looked after the business.
00:06:11Well, after 25 days, it sounds like you have been burning for redemption.
00:06:17Yes.
00:06:19So let's add a little fuel to that fire.
00:06:22Baron and Bounty are no more.
00:06:24Drop your buffs.
00:06:26We're moved.
00:06:28Let's go!
00:06:40Coming into this game as one of four returnees, my odds were stacked against me.
00:06:46I love you, man.
00:06:47Well done.
00:06:47I'm so proud of you.
00:06:48Thank you so much.
00:06:49I have made it.
00:06:54Bloody hell, that feels good.
00:07:06It feels electric to have made it to Merge.
00:07:09Oh my God, it's so clean.
00:07:10Alright, that's great.
00:07:11The past is in the past.
00:07:13Now, I've got the ability to change my game and to free myself from the holds of the Keeley
00:07:19and Mark alliance and to find myself some new best friends.
00:07:24Guys, this is a fresh start in the game.
00:07:28And now is each and every one of you's time to grab it with both hands.
00:07:33Do not sit at the end without a story.
00:07:36Let's go!
00:07:38Keeley, how does it feel to make Merge?
00:07:40Feels great.
00:07:41It was the surprise I needed, not the one I got last night.
00:07:47Mark, what about you?
00:07:48You've been at Merge before.
00:07:49Any words for your fellow tribe mates?
00:07:51Just don't give up and keep pushing hard.
00:07:55Like, last night was hard.
00:07:57You know?
00:07:59I did a kick-ass thing, but it also hurts.
00:08:02And, um, that's the beauty of Survivor, mate.
00:08:05Like, I didn't come around here to come third or come fourth or want to win.
00:08:11But on that journey, you build relationships.
00:08:15But I still think about what happened last time.
00:08:18And that gives me a lot of bloody fuel, mate.
00:08:27I feel sad for the people I voted off.
00:08:30Honestly, I do.
00:08:31But then there's still so many awesome people here still.
00:08:34So, I'm looking forward to voting them off too.
00:08:40Alright.
00:08:41Are you ready to get to your first individual reward challenge?
00:08:45Yeah!
00:08:49For today's challenge,
00:08:51you're going to stand on a wobbly barrel
00:08:54with your feet perched on narrow holes
00:08:56to balance a spool on a track.
00:08:59As time goes on, you'll move down to different holes,
00:09:03making it more difficult.
00:09:05Fall off your barrel, drop your spool, you're out.
00:09:09Last person less standing wins reward.
00:09:12Want to know what you're playing for?
00:09:13Yes!
00:09:15Oh, yes!
00:09:17It is...
00:09:20A brand new...
00:09:24Mahindra Scorpio four-wheel drive.
00:09:37This seven-seat Mahindra Scorpio is equipped with autonomous emergency braking,
00:09:4418-inch alloys,
00:09:46and a seven-year warranty.
00:09:49All valued at just under $50,000 on the road.
00:09:53Wow!
00:09:55Nice job!
00:09:57Wow!
00:09:58I know that's worth playing for.
00:10:01Yes!
00:10:02Hey, Mark, you're sitting out of this one.
00:10:05You've done it already.
00:10:06Hey, you can never have too many wheels, brother.
00:10:08Ha ha ha!
00:10:10Ha ha ha!
00:10:15All right, guys, take your positions!
00:10:21Ooh, this is tough.
00:10:26Come on.
00:10:28Grab your spool, put it in the track.
00:10:39There's my rope.
00:10:42Wah!
00:10:45All right, this challenge is now on.
00:10:51Shit.
00:10:55It's not just balance on this one.
00:10:58It's focus.
00:11:03I'm feeling wobbly.
00:11:07Lose that focus for a split second,
00:11:09and you are out.
00:11:12Oh, I'm out.
00:11:13Keely can't hold her spool.
00:11:15The first one out of the challenge.
00:11:17Devastating.
00:11:19You have to control every muscle fibre in your body
00:11:24to avoid tipping that barrel.
00:11:29Oh!
00:11:30Out of nowhere, Blanche.
00:11:32Loses her spool.
00:11:34She's out.
00:11:39No!
00:11:41Mark's out of the running for this car.
00:11:45First big reward on the line today.
00:11:48We get to see where everyone stands
00:11:51in the individual challenges.
00:11:54Oh, my God.
00:11:58I'm in.
00:12:04Ben, what would it mean to you to win a Mahindra?
00:12:07I haven't been driving my car for the last three months
00:12:09because the engine shat itself.
00:12:12So I don't have a car right now.
00:12:14What about you, Brookie?
00:12:16Growing family.
00:12:17New car would be nice.
00:12:18I feel like I look really cool at drop-offs with that car.
00:12:23My car is battered.
00:12:25It got a kick dent in it.
00:12:27I couldn't afford to re-get the door done.
00:12:30So, yeah, I need this car.
00:12:32I'm doing this for the dead car
00:12:34that is in my driveway right now,
00:12:37which I can't afford to get fixed.
00:12:38That's what I'm doing it for.
00:12:43All right.
00:12:44You guys have been up there for 20 minutes.
00:12:49Well done, guys.
00:12:52Let's kick it up another gear.
00:12:54Oh, come on.
00:12:56I just started getting my groove.
00:12:58Oh, my God.
00:13:00We're going to move down to the second set of footholds.
00:13:05This will be a live transition.
00:13:07If you drop your spool, you will be out.
00:13:11All right.
00:13:13Counting down from 10,
00:13:159,
00:13:178,
00:13:197,
00:13:206,
00:13:225,
00:13:234,
00:13:243,
00:13:262,
00:13:281.
00:13:29Amazing, that's it.
00:13:35Everyone makes the transition.
00:13:38A lot of spools on the run now.
00:13:42Stop moving.
00:13:50Get back to the middle, boy.
00:13:52You're home.
00:13:54You're too good for your home.
00:13:57That wider stance means the smallest movement can send this spool flying.
00:14:04Whoo!
00:14:09Sally completely locked in.
00:14:12Spool dead in the middle.
00:14:19All right.
00:14:20You've been up there for 45 minutes.
00:14:23Woo!
00:14:24Wow.
00:14:25Well done, guys.
00:14:28Ten people still in this challenge.
00:14:32Ben,
00:14:33Brooke,
00:14:34Caleb,
00:14:35Cameron,
00:14:36Jackson,
00:14:37Oz,
00:14:38Muddy,
00:14:39Rich,
00:14:40Sally,
00:14:41and Simon.
00:14:43So let's take it up a little bit further.
00:14:46Yeah, mate.
00:14:47We're gonna go no ropes.
00:14:54You touch the ropes,
00:14:55you're out of the challenge.
00:14:58$50,000 Mahindra Scorpio on the line.
00:15:04I'm gonna count you in.
00:15:075,
00:15:094,
00:15:113,
00:15:132,
00:15:141.
00:15:15Ropes down.
00:15:18Richard's out.
00:15:19Jackson's out.
00:15:21Everyone's falling like dominoes.
00:15:26Sally holding on.
00:15:28Go, Sal.
00:15:28Go, Benny.
00:15:32Lottie and Sally, the only ones left in it.
00:15:38And that's it.
00:15:39Sally has won the Mahindra!
00:15:42No, no, no, no, no!
00:15:45Wow!
00:15:47Oh, my God, Sally!
00:15:49I love it!
00:15:51No, Sally!
00:15:53No, no, Sally.
00:15:54No, no, Sally!
00:15:56No, no, Sally.
00:15:58No, no, Sally!
00:16:05Sally, get over here.
00:16:08.
00:16:15What does that feel like?
00:16:17There's a lot of emotion.
00:16:18You've battled back from Redemption Beach.
00:16:21Wow.
00:16:21And you've just won a brand new major.
00:16:24Oh, sad.
00:16:28It feels amazing.
00:16:30I mean, there's been so many days out here.
00:16:34I know everyone can relate where I've just told myself, like,
00:16:37I'm not cut out for this game.
00:16:40You know, and I've just heard my brother saying to me,
00:16:43Sal, you got this?
00:16:44And I heard him saying it today when we dropped the ropes.
00:16:48And I just chatteled his voice, and he got me a car,
00:16:52so I'm pretty stoked.
00:16:53Yeah.
00:16:57So good, Sal.
00:16:59Best person ever.
00:17:00Well, I think you've firmly proved that you belong in this game.
00:17:04And here it is, Sal.
00:17:05Oh, my God.
00:17:05Enjoy.
00:17:06Yeah.
00:17:12Congratulations.
00:17:13Oh, my God.
00:17:15Oh, my God.
00:17:16Oh, my God.
00:17:17I don't even have a car.
00:17:19Oh.
00:17:21Oh, my God.
00:17:22Is it made if I smell it?
00:17:23Yeah.
00:17:27All right, everyone.
00:17:28Well done.
00:17:29Grab your gear.
00:17:30Hit it.
00:17:31Oh.
00:17:31Oh.
00:17:34Sorry, I forgot.
00:17:35Oh, here we go.
00:17:37Hang on.
00:17:38Please, say it.
00:17:39What better way to celebrate merch than with a feast?
00:17:45Oh, my God.
00:17:57Oh, my God.
00:18:00A traditional Samoan feast.
00:18:04Oh, my God.
00:18:05Everything you need to set you up for the next stage of this game.
00:18:11That's what I'm talking about.
00:18:13Alright, grab your gear, head on out, enjoy that beat.
00:18:19I love you!
00:18:21I love you too.
00:18:23Hey, go! Go!
00:18:25Move! Move!
00:18:27Move! Move!
00:18:28Move!
00:18:32Oh!
00:18:38Let's go!
00:18:39Holy feast.
00:18:41Yes!
00:18:42Fish. Oh my God, the prawns.
00:18:45Crab.
00:18:46The whole thing.
00:18:48Let's get started.
00:18:50I got a toast.
00:18:52To our tribe mates, gone.
00:18:55To our friends we mourn.
00:18:57To us climbing deeper,
00:18:58and climbing higher,
00:19:00till we find the soul survive.
00:19:01Oh!
00:19:07I'm cracking into this pig.
00:19:09Oh my God, what a date.
00:19:12Whoa, look at that.
00:19:14Wow, I've been dreaming about this.
00:19:16Oh, yeah.
00:19:18This is worth it.
00:19:20Rich, I heard you had a good name for merge tribe.
00:19:24Oh yeah, I've got a name for us.
00:19:26A little bit of research beforehand.
00:19:28The Samoan word for redemption.
00:19:30We wouldn't use it if it wasn't a cool name,
00:19:32but it's a cool name.
00:19:34Yeah.
00:19:35Toggiola.
00:19:36Oh!
00:19:37Toggiola!
00:19:38Rich, how many tribals are you into?
00:19:40I've done nine of twelve.
00:19:41Oh!
00:19:44I've had the hardest road out here.
00:19:46I've been to three quarters of the tribal councils.
00:19:49Yeah.
00:19:50But one thing I've done in this game
00:19:52is not create enemies.
00:19:54In fact, with this tribe,
00:19:55I'm in an alliance with everyone.
00:19:57On the other tribe, well,
00:19:59I want to rekindle all these legacy relationships
00:20:01from O.G. Bounty.
00:20:03Like Lottie and Loz.
00:20:05I've, um, come in a relationship.
00:20:07All right, Dan, do we have crabs and prawns?
00:20:09Send them down.
00:20:10Crab.
00:20:11Okay.
00:20:11Don't just say all life.
00:20:13I don't trust Justin as far as I can try.
00:20:16He's moving it.
00:20:16No, I ain't.
00:20:17He's gonna go.
00:20:19The fucking truck is still living, brother.
00:20:21I told Simon that I won't work with him again
00:20:24until he's gone.
00:20:25Guys, how are you having to do that?
00:20:27Because I now deal into it.
00:20:28Yeah.
00:20:31Not feeling great about my position in the tribe.
00:20:34Post-Asha vote.
00:20:36I'm on the bottom.
00:20:38But it is a new day.
00:20:40It's a new tribe.
00:20:41It's a merged tribe.
00:20:42So hopefully, with a little bit of work,
00:20:45I can crawl my way up from the bottom.
00:20:47Are you missing Asha?
00:20:50Yeah.
00:20:51Yeah, but it is what it is.
00:20:54I haven't really had her.
00:20:55Your, uh, post-Asha is amazing.
00:20:57They're close.
00:20:59Which has been hard, man.
00:21:01No, it's because you have a corner.
00:21:05That's very true.
00:21:07With your peace.
00:21:09I would love to work with Sal.
00:21:11I have nothing to base that on other than vibes,
00:21:13but she looks like a good time.
00:21:15You've been a big fan of Survivor for a while?
00:21:17Um, your season kicked it off for me.
00:21:20Really?
00:21:20No way.
00:21:21I loved your season.
00:21:22It hooked me.
00:21:23Yeah.
00:21:23From the second episode, I was like...
00:21:26Yeah.
00:21:26Wow.
00:21:27I was rooting for you the whole time.
00:21:29Oh, thank you.
00:21:30I was.
00:21:30I definitely like Mark's game.
00:21:34If he wants to pick me up, I'll take it,
00:21:36because I'm desperate.
00:21:37Does anyone know how to actually carve a suckling pig?
00:21:40Because I have no idea.
00:21:42If only we had a chef.
00:21:43I knew it!
00:21:44I was thinking about it.
00:21:49There you go.
00:21:50There you go.
00:22:10Yeah!
00:22:12I did it!
00:22:14I never thought I'd make Merge.
00:22:16Here we are!
00:22:19It's nice here, isn't it?
00:22:22It's pretty cool because you see the sun, like, fully disappear on the horizon.
00:22:28I can't believe it! I'm on a beach with all these new people I don't even know!
00:22:32And I kind of feel like I'm back on day one!
00:22:34Tell me about how long it took us to have a chat!
00:22:38Can you believe that?
00:22:39We lost a few soldiers on the way.
00:22:42Ash was a huge wiser.
00:22:43Yeah.
00:22:44I didn't know about that.
00:22:45Didn't you?
00:22:46That's rough.
00:22:47That's rough because it threw me straight to the bottom.
00:22:51The game is completely changing.
00:22:54You've got people who are on the top are now knocked down.
00:22:59People who are mainly on the bottom and now might rise to the top.
00:23:03Hey, Sel Sel.
00:23:04I just have to say really quickly though, I've got one second.
00:23:06If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even be here right now.
00:23:09Sel, everything happens for a reason.
00:23:10You've said that so many times.
00:23:11I know.
00:23:12But honestly, it's because of you and Rich last night.
00:23:14Hey, I'm glad you're here.
00:23:16It changed the direction of this game for me.
00:23:18And I just want you to know how grateful I am.
00:23:20Yep.
00:23:21It's a little scary.
00:23:23She's always a splitter.
00:23:24Every single time.
00:23:26It's like, can we think of something new?
00:23:27Yeah.
00:23:32I feel like now's time where I need to start making new friendships and start making some
00:23:37serious moves.
00:23:41I'm finally going to get to, you know, shake the game up.
00:23:44Shake the game.
00:23:49I've got a fight.
00:23:50I've got that fight!
00:23:53I've got that fight!
00:23:53I've got it!
00:23:54I've got that fight!
00:23:55What the hell!
00:23:56They've caught him fish!
00:23:58I've caught him!
00:23:59Yeah!
00:24:20I've taken out Faith, who was my ally from night one.
00:24:24It's a huge move, and hopefully I have gone from public enemy number one
00:24:29to, like, number three or something.
00:24:30That sounds reasonable.
00:24:33I'm very, very excited to see, you know,
00:24:38who's going to be in the middle of the night.
00:24:41I don't know how long it's going to be.
00:24:44But as a returning player, I've got a huge target on my back.
00:24:48Bring it in. Bring it in.
00:24:50Oh, my gosh.
00:24:51Oh, my God, it's been so hard
00:24:53pretending that we don't even like each other on the other side.
00:24:56I'm like...
00:24:57All I was doing is just trying to catch your eyes every time
00:25:00but being as subtle as I could.
00:25:02Same.
00:25:05You have been my number one since the start.
00:25:07Same.
00:25:08And I want to go to the end with you.
00:25:11I have an idol.
00:25:12Oh, my God.
00:25:13Yeah.
00:25:14I haven't told anyone.
00:25:18Oh, my God.
00:25:19Oh, my God.
00:25:22Oh, my God.
00:25:22Oh, my God.
00:25:23Who would have thought you guys were here?
00:25:25I just took an opportunity to sneeze out again.
00:25:27Oh, my God.
00:25:28Hey, this is so solid.
00:25:31We're going to run the shit away.
00:25:32Yes, absolutely.
00:25:34I've already got a name for us.
00:25:35Why did you?
00:25:35With the boomerangs.
00:25:36Because we always come back.
00:25:41The boomerangs.
00:25:48Me, Simon and Brooke, we have this returnee truce,
00:25:53this pact that we want us to protect each other.
00:25:56No returnees going early.
00:25:57We have the brain power, the muscle power,
00:26:01the social power and the survivor experience
00:26:04to dominate the merge.
00:26:06Hey, Simon, you're playing a good game, right?
00:26:08Hey, I'm sorry.
00:26:09Can you dug the...
00:26:10I've already said congratulations.
00:26:11It's coming up.
00:26:12It's coming up.
00:26:13Well done, man.
00:26:14I'm really proud of you, man.
00:26:15Can I come to you?
00:26:16Yeah.
00:26:18Boomerangs.
00:26:19Boomerangs.
00:26:20Oh, absolutely wrong.
00:26:21Yeah, let's do it.
00:26:22Great idea.
00:26:33Great idea.
00:26:38I can't believe I'm finally on TV and I'm not tan.
00:26:42When I wrestle, I play fake tan.
00:26:44Do you?
00:26:45Yeah.
00:26:46Do you reckon anyone's got an idol?
00:26:50Round five, actually.
00:26:52I'm loving Caleb and Blanche just having a romantic dip.
00:27:01Who would have picked that as a showman sort of this season?
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:10What's happening in playoff?
00:27:12What's up, Richard?
00:27:13Well, I feel like it's week one.
00:27:15Yeah, I know.
00:27:15It's a little pro-back.
00:27:16At the moment, I'm so solid with my boy Cam.
00:27:21I feel really solid with Blanche.
00:27:27And Loz and I have rebuilt trust after the Arsh vote.
00:27:31But Merge gives me so many new opportunities to work with new people and I really need that
00:27:36right now.
00:27:38I'm excited.
00:27:40I think Merge came at a really good time for me.
00:27:42Yeah.
00:27:51Caleb and Sal have also been on the bottom for a while now.
00:27:55So, match made in heaven.
00:27:57There's going to need to be a time where we need to start getting the attorneys now.
00:28:03It's almost embarrassing.
00:28:05Like, I think it is a fight in the survivor game watching this and I'm like, what are we
00:28:09doing?
00:28:09Yeah.
00:28:09Yeah.
00:28:10Why are we keeping the best players in the game?
00:28:13Because everyone wants to see us.
00:28:15Woo!
00:28:16Woo!
00:28:16Hey!
00:28:17We're also forgetting here that now that we've all come together, there's a lot of power in
00:28:23our numbers.
00:28:28I think there's some new boots here that are way too big for them boots.
00:28:31Yeah.
00:28:33You know, I wouldn't mind.
00:28:35Yeah, yeah.
00:28:38Well, that's exactly who I'm talking about.
00:28:45Yeah.
00:28:46Me, Sal's are Carl, Cameron, Blanche, Wallace, Rich, but there's seven of us than me.
00:28:56We have a lot more power than we are giving ourselves credit.
00:29:09For me, I just think right now I'm keen on meeting everyone because I've not met the
00:29:15majority of people here.
00:29:16Yes.
00:29:16Like yourself and there's so many people I haven't met yet.
00:29:19And so I'm keen to do that before anything else.
00:29:24Post-merge, I'm feeling very loved at the moment.
00:29:28Sally and I are great.
00:29:30Mark and I are very close.
00:29:33Marley is a tight couple.
00:29:37How are you, numero uno?
00:29:39You call me numero uno?
00:29:41Yeah.
00:29:42Really?
00:29:43Yeah.
00:29:43I'm really touched by that.
00:29:44You're my numero uno.
00:29:45Yeah, I know.
00:29:46I tell Richard he's my number one because that's what he's saying to me and it's really important
00:29:51to keep up appearances.
00:29:53The reality is he's not my number one.
00:29:56I don't have a number one.
00:29:58It's only me who's number one in this game.
00:30:03Everybody loves you.
00:30:05It's a good spot to be in.
00:30:08Yeah.
00:30:09Whatever you've done this whole time has worked.
00:30:13It's funny.
00:30:14Mark's done like, Mark's done one thing and I've done something else.
00:30:17Yeah.
00:30:18Like very different ends of the spectrum.
00:30:20Yeah.
00:30:20Totally different ends.
00:30:21Yeah.
00:30:22You're very smart.
00:30:24You're a good strategist, Simon.
00:30:27I love that you get it.
00:30:28I love that you see that as well.
00:30:31Simon, he is a great challenge threat and I am not, but I also know that he needs a strategic
00:30:39powerhouse.
00:30:40Um, what are your thoughts on Blanche and Califf?
00:30:46Because I do think that that could create something quite powerful.
00:30:52Caleb, Blake, Lottie, Cameron.
00:30:56Yeah.
00:30:57Yeah.
00:30:57If they came together.
00:30:59Yeah.
00:30:59Which I think they could.
00:31:04Is that not a threat though?
00:31:06Is that not a concern?
00:31:09Yes.
00:31:10Okay.
00:31:12Lottie's very smart.
00:31:13Very smart.
00:31:14I'm sure she's already figured that out.
00:31:15She would essentially be the leader of the resistance in my opinion.
00:31:19Yeah.
00:31:19100%.
00:31:20That's what I'm most worried about.
00:31:24Lottie can be a real threat.
00:31:26She made a bit of a reputation for herself before Merge and I think that she could do that
00:31:32again.
00:31:33I don't underestimate Lottie for a second.
00:31:36I feel like between the two of us, we can also kind of keep Mark in check a little bit.
00:31:42I can manage Mark.
00:31:44We can manage Mark.
00:31:46Like, we'd like...
00:31:47I'm not worried about him.
00:31:50I think if Simon and I did combine forces, we would have challenges and strategy completely
00:31:56covered.
00:31:57You know, I thought my redemption in this game was going to be like playing an idol correctly.
00:32:00Mmm.
00:32:01I just realised my redemption was playing this game well.
00:32:05I like that.
00:32:07Yeah, you're really smart.
00:32:09Like, only...
00:32:10Really, really smart.
00:32:24Come on in.
00:32:26Ooh.
00:32:28Look at that rainbow.
00:32:32What the hell is that?
00:32:35This looks like torture.
00:32:37Definitely going to be hot.
00:32:40Good looking tribe.
00:32:43Richard, does the new tribe have a name?
00:32:45We've used a Samoan word related to redemption and it's Tongiola.
00:32:51Tongiola?
00:32:53This tribe really wants redemption.
00:32:55Yeah.
00:32:56Hell yeah.
00:32:57Jackson, the feast, the best way to start the tribe off on the right foot?
00:33:01Brother, we were vibing back at camp.
00:33:04Belly's full, we couldn't move so all we could do was talk to each other.
00:33:08And we're actually still pretty gassed up from it but now it's time to get down to business
00:33:13and fight for immunity again.
00:33:15There we are.
00:33:16Alright, you ready to get to your first individual immunity challenge?
00:33:20Yes, sir!
00:33:22First things first, I have to take that back.
00:33:24See you later.
00:33:25Oh man, we don't need this anymore, Dave.
00:33:27Thank you, sir.
00:33:32Tribe immunity is no more.
00:33:35From now on...
00:33:43This is what you're playing for.
00:33:45I want that.
00:33:46Individual immunity.
00:33:50Fancy.
00:33:51With this around your neck, you cannot be voted out of the game.
00:33:54Amazing.
00:33:55Without it, you're vulnerable.
00:33:57What's that?
00:33:58Yeah.
00:33:59Now, for today's challenge.
00:34:04We use a knotted rope to hold on to a heavy pole.
00:34:08As time goes on, you'll move further down the rope, making it more difficult.
00:34:21Last person holding on wins immunity, saved from the vote.
00:34:27As for the rest of you, tribal council tonight where someone will become the 12th person voted out of the
00:34:33game.
00:34:35All right, we're going to draw for spots, and then let's see who wants it.
00:34:38Woo!
00:34:39Oh, yeah!
00:34:40Oh, yeah!
00:34:41Oh, yeah!
00:34:41Let it rip.
00:34:48All right, here we go.
00:34:51For immunity, this challenge is now on.
00:34:57Yay!
00:34:59First immunity, that is a very pretty necklace.
00:35:02It is real pretty.
00:35:03It is really pretty.
00:35:05You look great on your heels.
00:35:07This challenge is not just about pole management.
00:35:10It's about threat management.
00:35:12Where do you want to sit in this tribe?
00:35:19Your pole is 35% of your body weight.
00:35:25Brooke, your pole is probably like a kilo.
00:35:29Easy now, but it's going to get a lot harder very fast.
00:35:34Yeah.
00:35:35Oh, I'm scared!
00:35:37First vote after merge is always a doozy.
00:35:43You really want to walk into tribal with that necklace tonight.
00:35:47Hell, yeah.
00:35:49It's hot out here.
00:35:51It's a sweaty one.
00:35:53All right, you've been up there five minutes.
00:35:55We're going to do our first transition.
00:35:58We're going to move below the second knot.
00:36:02Copy.
00:36:02Yeah!
00:36:03Yeah!
00:36:05From five,
00:36:07four,
00:36:09three,
00:36:10two,
00:36:12one.
00:36:15Everyone holding.
00:36:17Puts a lot of pressure on the lower back.
00:36:19By now you should be feeling this in your forearm.
00:36:22It's in your back.
00:36:24Biceps working.
00:36:26Survivor Gym in full effect.
00:36:29How are your hands doing?
00:36:31They're burning or what?
00:36:33Yeah.
00:36:33Yeah.
00:36:35Yeah.
00:36:37Oh, my God.
00:36:40Oh, my God.
00:36:41Yeah, two hands it is.
00:36:49All right, you've been going for 25 minutes.
00:36:51Whoa!
00:36:53Everyone still looking strong.
00:36:55Why is no one dropping?
00:36:57Now we're going to make things a little more interesting.
00:37:01Send it, Dave.
00:37:03Let's do this.
00:37:04We'll be moving down below the third knot.
00:37:08I'm going to count you in.
00:37:10Five.
00:37:11Woo!
00:37:12Four.
00:37:13Three.
00:37:15Two.
00:37:16One.
00:37:19That is spicy.
00:37:21Brooke fully locked in.
00:37:28We've got our first drop.
00:37:30Lottie out of the running.
00:37:35I feel a bit sick, guys.
00:37:38And that's it.
00:37:39Loz drops.
00:37:41Hold on, Lottie.
00:37:44This sucks.
00:37:45I don't like it.
00:37:47I'm in Spain.
00:37:49I just can't find the air.
00:37:53All right, that's 40 minutes you've been up here.
00:37:56Woo!
00:37:58Lot of people hanging on for that necklace.
00:38:01We're moving down to the fourth knot.
00:38:03Bro, those adjustments are hard now.
00:38:05In five.
00:38:06Four.
00:38:08Three.
00:38:09Two.
00:38:10One.
00:38:12We're on.
00:38:15Now it's really starting to burn.
00:38:20That's it.
00:38:21Sally's out of the challenge.
00:38:23Good job, Salzo.
00:38:26No, no, no, no.
00:38:27No!
00:38:28Jackson's out of the challenge.
00:38:35Cameron's out of the challenge.
00:38:38Now it's getting very serious.
00:38:42This section is heavy.
00:38:46All that weight in your shoulders, in your back.
00:38:49Triceps.
00:38:49Your grip.
00:38:51Sweat dripping down your hands.
00:38:54What?
00:38:58That's it.
00:38:59Mark is out of the challenge.
00:39:05Keely goes down out of the blue.
00:39:07Keely, amazing.
00:39:09Simon almost goes.
00:39:13Lot of weight in those poles for Ben and Simon.
00:39:16This is the burden we carry, Dave.
00:39:20Big boys.
00:39:21Big poles.
00:39:25Ben.
00:39:27Loses it.
00:39:28Switches to one hand and Ben's pole goes down.
00:39:33Oh, sorry.
00:39:34Hang in there, brother.
00:39:36Come on, Si.
00:39:37Just let me beat you once.
00:39:39What have you got to offer for me, Blanche?
00:39:40Nothing.
00:39:42I wish I had something to offer, but I don't.
00:39:44What about a vote?
00:39:46A vote?
00:39:47That's what bargaining chip you've got.
00:39:49You want me to vote for you?
00:39:51No, vote with him.
00:39:52Oh.
00:39:53Okay.
00:39:54I'm interested.
00:39:56Question is, will one vote be enough tonight?
00:40:04You've been up on that challenge for one whole hour.
00:40:07Oh.
00:40:08Well done.
00:40:11Massive effort.
00:40:13Eff it.
00:40:14Keep it up.
00:40:14So let's take it up to the last level.
00:40:18You're going down to the end of your rope where there is no knot.
00:40:23Five.
00:40:25Four.
00:40:26Three.
00:40:27Two.
00:40:29One.
00:40:31Everyone survives the transition.
00:40:34Nowhere to hide now.
00:40:35Nowhere to get comfortable.
00:40:37Oh, my hands are going.
00:40:41Blanche is out.
00:40:44Richard loses control of his body and Richard is out of the challenge.
00:40:55Simon is out just like that.
00:40:59It's all down to Brooke and Caleb now.
00:41:02Individual immunity on the line.
00:41:07I'll make a deal, Brooke.
00:41:08Yeah?
00:41:09You drop this one, I'll drop the next one.
00:41:11Absolutely not.
00:41:12You won't be at the next one.
00:41:15Brooke proving why she has the title of challenge beast.
00:41:18Caleb, you know who you're playing against, don't you?
00:41:21I'm the best.
00:41:21The best.
00:41:22How badly do you want it, Caleb?
00:41:25Oh, pretty bad.
00:41:27How about you, Brooke?
00:41:28Are you in trouble tonight?
00:41:29I think now.
00:41:30Now I might be if I drop.
00:41:34It all comes down to this.
00:41:36Two people left.
00:41:37One necklace on the line.
00:41:39Showing no emotion because my heart's machine.
00:41:41Caleb talking to himself, trying to find a little something extra.
00:41:45I should remember just doing it.
00:41:49Brooke steadies herself.
00:41:56Caleb's struggling now.
00:41:59Trying to bend over.
00:42:00But he's screaming!
00:42:11And that's it.
00:42:12Caleb is out of the challenge.
00:42:15Brooke wins first individual immunity.
00:42:18Caleb!
00:42:19Oh, my God.
00:42:20Oh, my God.
00:42:21Oh, my God.
00:42:22Oh, my God.
00:42:23Oh, my God.
00:42:25Oh, my God.
00:42:29Oh, my God.
00:42:30Oh, my God.
00:42:31Oh, my God.
00:42:35Oh, my God.
00:42:36Brooke, congratulations.
00:42:37Come on over.
00:42:38You're welcome.
00:42:39Yeah, Brooke.
00:42:40That was great.
00:42:41First individual immunity.
00:42:44It's all yours.
00:42:45Oh, my God.
00:42:48Thanks, guys.
00:42:48Want to talk out?
00:42:49Yeah.
00:42:50Well done, Mum.
00:42:52All right.
00:42:53Everyone else, one of you will become the 12th person voted out of this game.
00:42:58Congratulations, Brooke.
00:42:58It's not going to be you.
00:42:59Thank you, Dave.
00:43:00Get back and join the tribe.
00:43:04You are amazing.
00:43:05Seriously.
00:43:05You are inspirational.
00:43:06You are inspirational.
00:43:07Grab your gear.
00:43:08Head on back to camp and I'll see you tonight.
00:43:13Merge has been really beneficial for me.
00:43:15I've made some new connections.
00:43:18And Jackson, I just can't trust.
00:43:22So, we are voting Jackson off tonight.
00:43:37The queen of endurance strikes again.
00:43:42Well done.
00:43:43Well done.
00:43:44Thank you, guys.
00:43:45Congratulations, everyone.
00:43:47Brooke, you have won the first individual immunity post-merge in every season you've been
00:43:54going on.
00:43:54Oh!
00:43:56Go, Brooke!
00:43:59I love that Rich just has these stats in his mind.
00:44:07Nobody wants to be the first person eliminated after Merge.
00:44:11Tonight's vote will make it very clear to see who's in positions of power, where the alliances
00:44:16are, and who's on the bottom.
00:44:18Who do you think will point the gun at?
00:44:21What I'm feeling immediately is that Blanche, Caleb, Lottie, Cameron, all these different
00:44:27individuals and loose ends are the problem.
00:44:32I think it's Blanche or Caleb.
00:44:34I think it's Blanche.
00:44:35Currently, the Beauty and the Beast is my main alliance with Brooke, Ben, Simon and Loz.
00:44:42If we go Blanche, it's an easy vote, and it gives Caleb and Lottie one less ally.
00:44:51I think Beauty and the Beast, plus Mark, plus Keely, I think they're pretty locked for a
00:44:59vote, and that's already a majority.
00:45:01Hopefully.
00:45:03Hopefully.
00:45:04So the B&Bs plus the Brainiacs of Mark and Keely put us in a majority in this Merge
00:45:12tribe, and that is a majority I'd love to be in, at least for the next couple of votes.
00:45:16I'm so happy about rice.
00:45:18Well done.
00:45:20Chef.
00:45:20I'm not a chef.
00:45:23Perfect timing.
00:45:29It's our first tribal post-Merge, and these votes are never simple.
00:45:36I want Jax to move so fast.
00:45:38Me too.
00:45:38I think it's me and Rich.
00:45:39He ran the numbers, and that's what's on the table.
00:45:42Yeah, I want him gone.
00:45:43Yeah.
00:45:44Me too.
00:45:46I want him gone so badly.
00:45:48He's got no idea.
00:45:49No, he's become bigger than his own boobs, I think.
00:45:52Yeah.
00:45:53I don't like it.
00:45:54Ah.
00:45:55Ah!
00:45:57Ha!
00:45:57Is it between us and Rich?
00:45:59Mm-hmm, Jackson.
00:46:00It's pretty much an edge.
00:46:02You get on your arm.
00:46:04You.
00:46:05Me.
00:46:07Simon.
00:46:08Rich.
00:46:09Can.
00:46:11Can.
00:46:12An escalated.
00:46:14Katie did it.
00:46:16I think this is really good.
00:46:18...yes, I'm so excited to think about it.
00:46:21If you can get people to unite on a vote post-merge,
00:46:25it's a much safer option
00:46:27than everyone scrambling all the way through tribal.
00:46:30And I've been able to connect with a few different people.
00:46:33So tonight, we're piling in on Jackson.
00:46:35We were all, as a seven, going either.
00:46:40And in the event that Jackson has an idol,
00:46:43the plan is that we'll go home.
00:46:45We only need three votes on Ben.
00:46:49I'm on Ben.
00:46:51Blanche's on Ben.
00:46:52Caleb's on Ben.
00:46:53I think everyone else is on Jackson.
00:46:56Sally, Hughie, and Brooke all along with her Jackson.
00:47:00It should be very straightforward.
00:47:01Yeah.
00:47:02I feel good about tonight.
00:47:03I do feel like I'm in a good spot.
00:47:05The majority are agreeing to vote Jackson.
00:47:09Everyone is loading on Ben and Jackson.
00:47:13That's the split.
00:47:14I've only heard the name Jackson.
00:47:15I hadn't heard Ben.
00:47:16No, so where are we?
00:47:17I feel like...
00:47:18We're all wrong.
00:47:20If everyone does what they say they're going to do with their vote,
00:47:24we're laughing,
00:47:25and it seems like an easy ride through.
00:47:37Do you want to go down there?
00:47:38Yeah.
00:47:38Go this up.
00:47:39Yeah.
00:47:40Oh, OK.
00:47:45How did you do with Ben this week?
00:47:47Good.
00:47:48Yeah.
00:47:48Yeah.
00:47:48Really good.
00:47:50There's no mark train, by the way.
00:47:52Yeah.
00:47:53But I think tonight's vote, we need to end goal on Lottie.
00:47:58OK.
00:47:59As well.
00:47:59Perfect.
00:48:00Yesterday, I had a really good chat with Simon about working with him going forward to vote
00:48:06out Lottie.
00:48:08Give Lottie a chance.
00:48:09I think she would lead the resurgence to get the returnees gone.
00:48:15Caleb, the way his brain is working right now, I don't know if it's up about Lottie.
00:48:20No, neither.
00:48:21Yeah, not even lots of women.
00:48:22Like, it's just something we're going to have to deal with.
00:48:24Deal with afterwards.
00:48:26I know that Caleb and Lottie have some weird close connections.
00:48:30Hello, my fishing boat I made last time I seen.
00:48:32Oh, what?
00:48:34That would work for sure.
00:48:36I don't want word getting out to Lottie that it's her.
00:48:41Should we have a little ball wave?
00:48:42Yeah, we'll have a little ball wave.
00:48:46Sal, like, there's been a few plans floating around.
00:48:49Like, one of the, like, some for Bayou.
00:48:52Yes.
00:48:54Lottie and Co.
00:48:56I can't basically come into a band man, Jackson.
00:49:00Would you be keen to go to Lottie?
00:49:02Really?
00:49:04Yeah.
00:49:09Hey.
00:49:11Come on in.
00:49:12Come on in.
00:49:15Hey.
00:49:16I think we did so well today.
00:49:17Oh, okay.
00:49:18No, you did.
00:49:20We smashed the club.
00:49:21We'll just be special.
00:49:22We'll just be special.
00:49:23Okay, cool.
00:49:26Ideally, I'd like to get him gone.
00:49:30I mean, I can get behind you.
00:49:32You can get behind?
00:49:33Yeah, of course.
00:49:33What about you, Sal?
00:49:34If that's the vote that you want to do, okay?
00:49:37Let's do it.
00:49:38I reckon you'll do it.
00:49:39Let's do it.
00:49:40Let's do it.
00:49:40Done.
00:49:41Done.
00:49:41Done.
00:49:42And done.
00:49:42Done.
00:49:43Okay.
00:49:44Yes.
00:49:44Let's do it.
00:49:47Let's do it.
00:49:58Lasin.
00:49:59Yeah.
00:50:00Yeah.
00:50:00Yeah.
00:50:01Yeah.
00:50:27The vote has landed on Lottie tonight.
00:50:31Because I decided that that is what would be best.
00:50:38That crew all think that we're voting for Jackson as number one.
00:50:42And then on this, but yeah.
00:50:44But everyone else is on Lottie.
00:50:48Tonight I'm hoping to keep my hands clean.
00:50:51Because Mark is a hustler and I know that he is going to go and talk to everybody twice.
00:50:57We've done Lottie.
00:50:59Yeah.
00:51:00Cool.
00:51:00That's it.
00:51:04That's it.
00:51:05That's massive.
00:51:06Yeah.
00:51:07That's really massive.
00:51:12I'm going to put some more thought into it.
00:51:14Yeah.
00:51:14Have some thought.
00:51:17I like the fact that we had this idea from the session.
00:51:19It's when you and I.
00:51:21And now Mark's going in and just cut it.
00:51:23Yeah.
00:51:24That's amazing.
00:51:24Yeah, he's excellent.
00:51:25He's excellent.
00:51:26It's always worth consulting Mark because he does the overtime.
00:51:30It's very, very exciting.
00:51:31I'm like so excited.
00:51:32I think we're going to have a lot of fun.
00:51:34Yeah.
00:51:34Heels.
00:51:35Yeah.
00:51:35Very, very good.
00:51:3813 is a very difficult number.
00:51:41There's a lot of people that you need on site.
00:51:44This may just come down to the people in the swing vote.
00:51:47And that is actually Loz, Sally, and even Rich there.
00:51:54But I know that Loz is close to Lottie.
00:51:56So I need to work out if she's on board.
00:52:03If we decide together to stop the resistance in its tracks before it actually gets going,
00:52:12who would that be, who would be the brains behind the resistance in terms of the scoop
00:52:19everyone up from the bottom to create something against the beauty of it.
00:52:24Like the body.
00:52:25Yeah.
00:52:26She's very good.
00:52:27She's very, very good.
00:52:29There's an opportunity there to unite the rest of us, knowing that Jackson and Ben can wait.
00:52:39Right now, I'm in a bit of a pickle.
00:52:42I feel like I'm sitting in the middle of the tribe.
00:52:45One side looking to do a Jackson vote.
00:52:49And on the other side, looking for a potential Lottie vote.
00:52:56My head's up.
00:52:59It doesn't like to stay with the numbers and do Lottie.
00:53:04Like we want to be on the right side of the vote.
00:53:05100%.
00:53:06But it also doesn't make sense.
00:53:08Like she's not threatening in challenges.
00:53:09She's got no power right now.
00:53:11Yeah.
00:53:13She's...
00:53:14Will vote with us?
00:53:15What do you think?
00:53:17The most important thing for me is I want us to align with you through this and us to be
00:53:23voting in parallel.
00:53:26Well, what about Lottie that...
00:53:28Is it just giving Mark more power?
00:53:33Like this...
00:53:34I mean, is this him driving another vote and another move for him?
00:53:39Don't trust Mark, I haven't worked with him yet and he's such a massive player.
00:53:43This is going to be a hard one.
00:53:45He's the worst for me so far.
00:53:48Yeah, okay.
00:53:49And I have a good relationship with Lottie.
00:53:52Lottie and I still feel pretty solid.
00:53:54And I'm not a big Jackson fan right now.
00:53:58I would prefer Jackson.
00:54:02The Jackson?
00:54:03Yeah.
00:54:05So, are you paranoid?
00:54:06I'm like...
00:54:08Closing.
00:54:12Tonight is not for me who I want to vote out.
00:54:14That's who I want to vote with.
00:54:16Oh, God.
00:54:16You said it so well.
00:54:18Yeah.
00:54:19I've had to play from the bottom for the majority of this game.
00:54:22Because I've been under the thump with Mark and Keely.
00:54:26And tonight's vote is once again being driven by Mark and Keely.
00:54:32I feel like, um, your game has just changed gears since the merge.
00:54:37Yeah.
00:54:38Like you're in kind of a different sound.
00:54:39Yeah.
00:54:40I have to be.
00:54:41Because now I've actually got the option, thank you so much, of having agency.
00:54:45Agency.
00:54:46Tonight's vote is not just about tonight.
00:54:48I mean, you hear all the time about lines being drawn in the sand.
00:54:52This is the time that that's really, really clear.
00:54:55Getting on the right time in this way, you know, it sets you up your hole again.
00:55:05Where's the good Lottie's?
00:55:07Lottie.
00:55:08You're kicking, you're coming there.
00:55:09Oh.
00:55:09I bet.
00:55:19There you go.
00:55:20There's a second pack, man.
00:55:21Oh, yeah.
00:55:22Yeah, might as well look for an item.
00:55:24It's because I am having a panic attack.
00:55:39In a tribe size of 13, it is a very delicate vote.
00:55:44Back looking for violence.
00:55:47Gosh, dang.
00:55:49Because it only takes one or two people to change their vote, and the whole plan gets derailed.
00:56:03I can't trust everyone in this tribe that they're going to vote tonight to keep me safe.
00:56:09It's so easy to jump on a name when there's so many names around.
00:56:16I need to hope and pray that my alliance is strong enough that this is not the last day that
00:56:20I have in this game.
00:56:39I need to hope and pray that my alliance is strong enough that this is not the last day that
00:56:43I have in this game.
00:56:54Good tribal.
00:56:57Very cosy.
00:57:02Mark, you've been to one or two tribals.
00:57:05If you could sum it up in one word,
00:57:07how would you describe this moment in the game?
00:57:11Evolution. The game's evolving.
00:57:14Everyone's been going hammer and tongs for weeks now,
00:57:17but it doesn't get any easier.
00:57:19The game just keeps evolving and it's a critical vote tonight.
00:57:24Keeley, the merge vote often sets the tone for the rest of the game.
00:57:28What do you think this vote tonight is going to say
00:57:30about the game moving forward?
00:57:33Oh, that's an interesting question, Dave.
00:57:36Um, it certainly is going to set the tone.
00:57:39I think it is going to tell people who's solid with who,
00:57:45who you can work with and perhaps who you can't work with as well.
00:57:49You know, perhaps tonight is going to be...
00:57:54..unanimous or close to, but we'll just have to wait and see.
00:58:00Jackson, a much bigger tribe means a lot more connections.
00:58:03Have you been seeing some of those connections at work today?
00:58:06Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:58:08Yeah, man.
00:58:10Uh, most definitely.
00:58:11You know, it's getting me actually a little paranoid, David.
00:58:16The golden rule of Survivor, right?
00:58:17If they're not talking to you, they're talking about you,
00:58:19and that's where I find myself currently.
00:58:21I can say, hey, there's 13 people here,
00:58:23you can't get around everyone,
00:58:25but, um, it does make me a little bit paranoid.
00:58:31Sally, do you feel like you're moving forward tonight?
00:58:33I definitely feel like I'm moving forward tonight.
00:58:35I think my plan for Merge was to really strengthen
00:58:42old relationships, new relationships,
00:58:45get on the right side of the vote.
00:58:47And while I'm feeling good right now,
00:58:50I am still a little bit paranoid, like everyone else,
00:58:53because this game really has kicked into gear.
00:58:58And it's a good point, Mark.
00:59:00Being on the right side of the votes is very important,
00:59:03but aren't we at the stage of the game now
00:59:04where orchestrating those votes is just as important?
00:59:08Yeah.
00:59:09I, um, I like being on the right side,
00:59:12but, um, I also like having a crack too.
00:59:15As you said it when we merged, David,
00:59:16you said, uh, make sure when you get to the end
00:59:19you have a story.
00:59:20And I think that, um,
00:59:23I take your advice seriously as a former winner.
00:59:29Richard, how many people right now
00:59:31do you think have a story?
00:59:34Uh, not many, actually.
00:59:37Uh...
00:59:37Oh.
00:59:37Yeah, I mean, to have a story,
00:59:40you need to be influencing the game
00:59:42and changing its direction.
00:59:43And the reality is we do have a lot of passengers
00:59:46who have been along on the right.
00:59:49And maybe that's because they haven't been
00:59:51to many tribal councils,
00:59:52or maybe they've been lost in the crowd.
00:59:55Um, but that doesn't mean
00:59:56that that has to be their story.
00:59:59Their story can change tonight,
01:00:00where they can shape the game
01:00:03the way that they like.
01:00:04It's never too late to make an impact.
01:00:07And, uh, my story,
01:00:09my story's been one of, uh,
01:00:11a lot of struggle in the, uh,
01:00:14in the tribe swap.
01:00:15But I'm proud of that story.
01:00:17But I'm gonna write a new chapter
01:00:19in the merch.
01:00:20All right, well, we don't have a jury yet, Richie.
01:00:22Do you know any to?
01:00:23All right.
01:00:24I was gonna say.
01:00:27Lottie, if everyone knows how to play the game,
01:00:30do you think everyone here
01:00:31has the same game in mind?
01:00:33Oh, definitely not.
01:00:34I don't think anyone here
01:00:37really has the exact same game in mind.
01:00:39If we did,
01:00:40we would have linked up with them by now
01:00:41and it would have been a wipeout.
01:00:43But I think we're learning slowly
01:00:45what other people's game is
01:00:47and if we might be able
01:00:49to dance with their game.
01:00:51How do you make sure
01:00:51you've found the right dance partner?
01:00:54Take one lap around tribal
01:00:56and see what happens.
01:00:58Loz, if you have found
01:01:00some dance partners,
01:01:02how do you make sure
01:01:02you're the one leading?
01:01:04I think it's been a different game
01:01:05coming in with some returnees.
01:01:08I think our returnees
01:01:10have showed us a few things or two,
01:01:12like a bit of a 101 survivor.
01:01:14We've seen them all in action
01:01:15with our tribal council
01:01:18and at the challenges.
01:01:19So I think we've really had to step up
01:01:21and up our game.
01:01:26Brooke, at this stage of the game,
01:01:28is it okay to be seen
01:01:30as a threat
01:01:30if it means you're able
01:01:31to grab power?
01:01:33Um, to be honest,
01:01:35I really hate the threat word.
01:01:36I feel like it's been haunting me
01:01:38for the last few weeks, but...
01:01:40Too threatening?
01:01:40Yeah, I mean,
01:01:42if you could stop mentioning it to me,
01:01:44that would be really, really appreciated.
01:01:46You're still wearing that necklace, mate.
01:01:49How do you win this game
01:01:50if you're not seizing power?
01:01:52I mean, in my opinion,
01:01:53you can wait
01:01:55till you show your cards
01:01:57a little later in the game.
01:02:00Simon, what is
01:02:01leaving it too late
01:02:02in this game?
01:02:03Um,
01:02:06yeah, leaving it too late
01:02:07will leave you
01:02:07as a zero-vote finalist.
01:02:11Damn.
01:02:13Strong words.
01:02:14You can't take out
01:02:16the big dog
01:02:16at four or five
01:02:18and be like,
01:02:19that's my big move.
01:02:21It doesn't work like that.
01:02:23I've seen it time and time again
01:02:24where it's not enough.
01:02:25So, like,
01:02:27get on it.
01:02:28Are you the big dog?
01:02:29I'm not the big dog.
01:02:32Okay.
01:02:32That was so good.
01:02:34Oh, my God.
01:02:34That's fine.
01:02:35I don't know.
01:02:36Get in there, folks.
01:02:40Got it.
01:02:44Lottie,
01:02:44is it time to take out
01:02:45the big dog now
01:02:46at 13?
01:02:48Um,
01:02:48it kind of sounded like
01:02:49Simon was tempting
01:02:50everyone to do it,
01:02:51but, um,
01:02:53I don't know.
01:02:54If you want to,
01:02:55you want to.
01:02:5613 can be an unlucky number
01:02:58for some
01:02:58and a very lucky number
01:02:59for others.
01:03:01All right.
01:03:02Let's see how united
01:03:03this tribe really is.
01:03:05It's time to vote.
01:03:24Simon,
01:03:29you're up.
01:03:42I came back here
01:03:43to play with the big dogs.
01:03:45And right now,
01:03:46as queen of the resistance,
01:03:48you must stand here by way.
01:03:57Nice love.
01:04:05Lottie.
01:04:15This is your final act
01:04:16tonight, bro.
01:04:17Sorry.
01:04:22Lottie,
01:04:34what's the fear
01:04:35of chaos in you?
01:04:48There are many big dogs
01:04:49in this game
01:04:49and I think
01:04:50one of them is you.
01:04:59I'll go count the votes.
01:05:26If anyone has a hidden immunity idol
01:05:28and would like to play it,
01:05:29now would be the time
01:05:30now would be the time
01:05:31to do so.
01:05:38I'll read the votes.
01:05:45First vote.
01:05:51Ben.
01:05:56Ben.
01:06:02Ben.
01:06:03Ben.
01:06:04That's three votes, Ben.
01:06:11Jackson.

01:06:21Three votes, Ben.
01:06:22Three votes, Ben.
01:06:22One vote, Jackson.
01:06:28Lottie.
01:06:35Lottie.
01:06:36We're tied.
01:06:38Three votes, Ben.
01:06:39Three votes, Lottie.
01:06:40One vote, Jackson.
01:06:45Lottie.
01:06:45That's four votes, Lottie.
01:06:48Three votes, Ben.
01:06:49One vote, Jackson.
01:06:52Lottie.
01:06:56Lottie.
01:07:0312th person voted out
01:07:04of Australian Survivor Redemption.
01:07:07Lottie.
01:07:08That's seven votes.
01:07:09Dirty dogs.
01:07:10That's enough.
01:07:11You need to grab me a torch.
01:07:17Dirty dogs.
01:07:20Dirty dogs.
01:07:23So all my stuff's at camp,
01:07:24enjoy it.
01:07:33Lottie, the tribe has spoken.
01:07:35Yes, they have.
01:07:39Peace, love.
01:07:41Bye, Lottie.
01:07:42Ciao, ciao.
01:07:48Well, it doesn't matter
01:07:49if you dance in a two-step
01:07:51or the foxtrot.
01:07:52Dance with the wrong people
01:07:53and you might find yourself
01:07:55spun out of this game.
01:07:57Oh, grab your torches.
01:07:59Head back to camp.
01:08:01Good night, Dave.
01:08:03Good night.
01:08:07Next time.
01:08:08I don't trust anyone
01:08:10from my alliance.
01:08:12It's the end game.
01:08:13I am getting
01:08:14the rocket launcher out.
01:08:17But the battle for power
01:08:19is only just beginning.
01:08:21I'm not in control
01:08:22of this tribe.
01:08:23I don't hate it.
01:08:25Who will fall?
01:08:26I was an underdog
01:08:27and now
01:08:28I feel like we're top dogs.
01:08:32Who will find redemption?
01:08:33The chiefs are all going to have
01:08:35to be employed at some stage.
01:08:36And who
01:08:37will become
01:08:38sole survivor?
01:08:39If we get tonight right,
01:08:41we will rule the rest of the game.
01:08:46I don't know who the dirty dogs are,
01:08:48but my guess is on Simon.
01:08:50Simon definitely shot
01:08:51before he got shot
01:08:52and congrats to him.
01:08:53He picked it.
01:08:55Well, Lottie,
01:08:56it is Keeley 2
01:08:58and Lottie 0.
01:08:59Better luck next time.
01:09:00It feels like everyone
01:09:02voted for me
01:09:03by the look of those votes.
01:09:04I'm hoping not
01:09:06Loz and Rich,
01:09:07but maybe.
01:09:08This is a tough one.
01:09:09Lottie,
01:09:10you are one of the coolest
01:09:11chicks I've ever met
01:09:12in my whole life,
01:09:13but I'm just not ready
01:09:15to burn my shields yet.
01:09:17I really hope
01:09:18that someone stands up soon
01:09:20and goes for the big players
01:09:21because if they don't,
01:09:22they're going to end up
01:09:23the same way I did.
01:09:24And I really hope
01:09:26that the people that stand up
01:09:27are the new players.
01:09:29Should have seen it coming
01:09:30would be the name
01:09:31of this painting.
