00:01Previously on Celebrity Treasure Island.
00:04Here they come, fresh, fearless and totally unprepared.
00:09Getting off the boat, I've done something through personally.
00:13Fourteen celebrities arrived in the far north to meet their new teams.
00:17Orange, your team is Kahu.
00:19Blue team, Takapu. Wisdom versus Fury.
00:23I interpret that as just old versus young.
00:26A surprise twist meant the very first battle.
00:31Presented power to choose a legendary captain.
00:36Portia, one of the greatest athletes this country has ever produced.
00:40Or, Simon.
00:43Simon.
00:45Idiots.
00:46But in the first team face off, it was Takapu who took control.
00:51Snatching a massive day one advantage we've never seen before.
00:55The winning team's Kaihotu will get to choose one person from each side to fight it out in the first
01:01elimination battle tonight.
01:03Oh no.
01:05It's really, really cruel.
01:06I feel like I may have put a target on my back.
01:32To be errado by going.
01:40I shut that target.
01:41invece my hero behind the client in looking for two to have��s.
01:45I'm going to go.
01:51Assume previously.
01:52It's, actually obeso.
01:52It's pretty stressful because there's no way of bringing me justice here is going to address.
01:53Make sure that you should be content to keep up to the aspiringry biol良 For lack of being our arrival
01:53of Phantom.
01:53You'll be very well and more collective treasures as taver pow Arts slopes.
02:24Island and we've already thrown more twists and turns at these teams than they've bargained for
02:29and now one contestant has to choose who's going up for elimination.
02:37Kia ora, take a seat. Best of luck Portia.
02:44Honestly I have no idea who I'm gonna put up.
02:50One challenge under my belt and I have to make this decision like my hands are shaking for it.
02:58I guess I'm gonna have to make this decision when I get up there.
03:04Real vibe killer, real vibe killer and it's freaking me out. Harrison, he's getting stressed.
03:11Vi said he's definitely not getting put up but he hasn't shown any of his strengths yet.
03:16Whatever happens, love you guys. Yeah, love you guys.
03:20I am stressing for Vinny.
03:23I do have a strong feeling that it will be me. I'm not ready to go.
03:28Not, not before even spending a night with these people.
03:33Welcome to elimination. Tonight one of you will be the first to fall, leaving the island and the game.
03:43And the power to decide who fights. Rest in one person's hands. Portia, come on up.
03:50My heart is breaking right now that I have to have someone eliminated today.
03:57Portia, you've only been in this game for an afternoon.
04:00How difficult was this decision to make?
04:03Oh, it's extremely difficult. I've created a connection.
04:08Not only for my team, but even getting to know the opposition. It's not been easy.
04:13Alright Portia, from team Kahu, who will be the first person going up for elimination?
04:28So Sammy, we're going to put you up.
04:34Not at all what I was expecting. I'm not prepared for this.
04:39Alright Portia, in from your own team.
04:41I don't know how she's going to make the decision. I just know that it's going to be me or
04:46Ben.
04:51Ben, I believe in you. I'm going to put you out there too.
04:58Got this Vinny.
04:59I think I know what this challenge is going to be.
05:03And at least I'm going to have a pretty good chance.
05:08Sammy, talk me through your thoughts and feelings.
05:11Um, I mean I'm flattered if you think I'm a threat or if you think I'm easy pickings. Either way,
05:17you thought about me and I love that you thought about me for sure.
05:21But I am obviously, I'm pretty nervous. I just hope that my team has faith in me and then I'll
05:28pull through.
05:29Well, battlers, this is a game of focus and control.
05:35Each player must stack five blocks on their platform, then pull back on the rope to keep them standing.
05:41You must then move back down the rungs one at a time, keeping those blocks standing.
05:46If at any point the blocks fall, you must start again.
05:50First person to reach the end of their ladder wins.
05:53Winner stays in the game and gets a valuable advantage.
05:56Loser goes home, missing out on the $100,000 grand prize for their charity.
06:03Sammy, Ben, take your marks.
06:08The tallest man I've ever seen stands up next to me.
06:11So whatever strengths I may have had, he's probably got that doubled.
06:16Ben, tell us who your charity is.
06:18It's Heart Kids New Zealand. Heart Kids have been wrapping support around the 12 kids born in New Zealand
06:23every week with a congenital heart defect and I'm very proud to be standing up here representing them.
06:31And Sammy.
06:32I'm playing for Annie Bloom.
06:34I grew up with scoliosis so I decided to have found a charity that would support those affected
06:39by scoliosis as well as our youth in New Zealand living with disabilities.
06:45Come on, Sammy.
06:49Fighting for your place in this game.
06:51Ben.
06:53Sammy.
06:58All right.
07:00And both players are off. Ben is first to get his blocks on his platform.
07:09They need five and then they have to work their way back down the ladder.
07:14Ben, getting a feel for those blocks.
07:17The way to win this is very clear to me.
07:20I have to use my strength and I have to use my body weight to keep those two ropes as
07:24taut as I possibly can.
07:27Can he make it down the first rung?
07:32Jeez Louise.
07:34Struggling to get five blocks standing.
07:38I'm not mentally prepared the way that their team would be.
07:42But I definitely want to give this my all and I want to stay here.
07:51Tammy lands her fifth block.
07:57Ben, pulling away now.
08:01I'm trying to balance it while copying his method a little bit.
08:06No.
08:08All right.
08:09Sammy's blocks fall.
08:10She'll have to start again.
08:13And it's not working for me the way it is for him.
08:16Sammy feeling the pressure as she builds back her blocks.
08:21Ben, super focused.
08:24Sammy starts to make her way back down the rungs.
08:27Sammy, still fighting. She's still in this.
08:30That's it, girl.
08:33Ben has one more rung to go.
08:40Take it slow.
08:45Three, two, one.
08:49Ben wins the challenge.
08:53Staying in the game.
08:55Sammy, going home.
08:57Well done.
08:58It's not on you, don't worry.
08:59Yeah, it's gutting.
09:01It's really sad.
09:03He put up such a good fight and I thought I could do better.
09:09But it just wasn't my challenge.
09:15Sammy, no one wants to be the first person to go home, but it is in no way a mark
09:20on you as a player.
09:22Personally, for me, in the challenge earlier today, you were a standout.
09:27By the looks of it, you're going to be deeply missed.
09:30Do you have any final words?
09:33Oh, I love my team so much.
09:36I'm just getting emotional because you're all crying over there.
09:39Stop!
09:40Stop!
09:41Shut up!
09:42I've had the best time, even if it was only one day.
09:51Sammy, your time on Treasure Island has come to an end.
09:54Oh.
09:54Haere rā.
09:57Say your goodbyes, then head on out.
10:00This has been an amazing opportunity, and I will remember it forever.
10:04I'm proud that I was able to represent my charity.
10:07Bye!
10:08A lot of people, they don't know they have scoliosis.
10:11Awareness is the most important thing, and I'm really proud to represent that here.
10:19Oh, we bonded too hard, eh?
10:25I'm the reason she got put in that challenge.
10:27I'm the reason she's lost.
10:30I'm the reason she's going home and she can't do any more for her charity.
10:33I am so heartbroken, but also have to think that this is a game.
10:39I have to come back and do what's best for my team.
10:45Ben, congratulations. That was incredible.
10:48You were focused the whole time.
10:49Thank you. I didn't, this is a real shock.
10:52I didn't expect what hit me this deep to see someone from the opposing team sent home,
10:58but personally and for my team, I'm really proud.
11:05You have also earned yourself a little advantage.
11:14Go take a seat.
11:24Just 15 of you remain on Treasure Island.
11:27Every day you play is one step closer to victory and the all-important treasure.
11:33Get back to your kāinga. Rest up.
11:36Hea pōpō.
11:37Hea pōpō.
11:38Hea pōpō.
11:42Day one, and they've shown us their cards.
11:46At least we got the job done. We got our people home.
11:49The games have begun.
11:52Man, that's actual ruthless.
11:55So, Ben, are you going to share that advantage with me that you just won?
11:59Oh, hey.
12:00Oh, yeah.
12:01What did you get?
12:03Or you could just share it with your whole team, I guess.
12:06Reward.
12:08Jealous of what the other team just snagged.
12:12Snatch it for your team.
12:15Oh, I can see it now. They celebrate. They've all hugged. They've won burgers. And it's like...
12:22Oh, my God. It's brutal. That is brutal.
12:25It is.
12:28I'd keep that a secret for now, Ben, as I don't think Kahu is ready to hear the newsflash.
12:37You guys got along like a house on fire, eh?
12:39I know. We just, like, became best friends straight away and had lots of time together.
12:47Yeah, I'm really sad. I can't stop crying.
12:57The whole team's gone off really well with it.
13:00For me to be crying, and I don't cry, that's like saying, whoa, what the hell are we doing to
13:07each other?
13:09Love yous, but you're not what I would usually be drawn to.
13:14Like, I'm just saying it.
13:17A part of me felt really, really responsible that we had lost, you know, the heart of our group.
13:23Because I know that if we had won that slingshot challenge, then we may have had the upper hand.
13:30I think it was a cheap move.
13:32Yeah, I agree.
13:33By the other team.
13:34That was dirty.
13:35I think, um, you know, the semi they assumed was one of, you know, our weakest.
13:40They took advantage of that.
13:45Well, that's why we have to go hard tomorrow in the team challenge so that Kahu has got the control.
13:54I think we can all feel that now that I can, that we need to get them back.
14:00We're all set to get some revenge.
14:10It's the very first new morning on the island after the very first sleepover.
14:16Perfect timing to spill the beans.
14:19Who wants beans?
14:22First night in camp.
14:25It's fun.
14:26It's like new flatmates coming in.
14:29And, you know, you're kind of learning everyone's like quirks.
14:32Ria and Ben are like camp mum and dad, you know.
14:35What did you do to this one as opposed to yesterday's one?
14:39Yesterday we cooked the rice and beans separately.
14:43Louis is next to me on the top bunk, so we're kind of like brother and sister.
14:47I do feel sorry for him because I am extraordinarily gassy because of the beans.
14:53He is the loudest snorer of all time.
14:56There were different snores going on at the same time at different rhythms and pitches.
15:00The you snore, you snore, I snore debate started to happen.
15:04It was quite musical.
15:05No one pointed at Frank though, even though he was definitely in the group.
15:08Frank doesn't get fingers pointed at the snoring.
15:10Were you having a nightmare?
15:11I heard someone just like, not screaming, but like, you know.
15:14They're screaming.
15:15Already this bizarre little family vibe, you know.
15:21The mood's not quite so perky down the beach at Kahu this morning after last night's elimination.
15:29There was a mouse in my clothes.
15:31Jesus Christ.
15:33Breaches and stuff everywhere.
15:34My God.
15:36The vibe today's a little bit flat.
15:38Yeah, everyone's a little sad that Sammy's gone home.
15:40Like, I think we're all going to take a while to get over that.
15:44We do need to get over that.
15:45I literally just pulled up my jacket and then a mouse came out of it.
15:48Are you serious?
15:49Yeah.
15:49Nah, you're joking.
15:50No, I'm not kidding.
15:52And then I looked and I was like, oh, it did a poo in my jacket.
15:55And then the poo started moving.
15:56I was like, oh, these are bugs too.
15:57It's a real bummed out vibes right now.
16:00It just feels like the game's started now.
16:02And it feels like it's very real.
16:05And there is no motel that we go back to.
16:09There is no secret food that we're allowed to eat.
16:12And once you get eliminated, you get eliminated.
16:16Wow.
16:16Nothing like a comedian to really hype up the dream holiday.
16:20Come on.
16:21We're going for a team swim.
16:22You're a team swim?
16:22A team swim.
16:23Yeah.
16:23All right.
16:24OK, because we're doing that then.
16:27I guess we're doing whatever you want, Simon.
16:29Yeah, we'll do whatever you want.
16:32Yeah, Fresno did suck.
16:34But Simon, he's an awesome leader.
16:36So I feel like he's a really, he's a bit of a glue when it comes to Team Kau.
16:45No jeepers.
16:47Shower.
16:48Enjoy that swim, orange team.
16:51We're going to just stay alive.
16:55It's the team spirit, I think.
16:57Don't worry, Tarkapoo.
16:59I've got your team spirit sorted today because things are about to get slippery.
17:05Get in here, you lot!
17:11OK.
17:12Yeah, you already know what this is.
17:17When I see the slip inside, awesome.
17:21Tarkapoo, welcome to your very first charity challenge.
17:25I'll be alternating between camps each day with one of these fun challenges,
17:29which we'll see one of you pick up $5,000 for your worthy cause.
17:33Yes!
17:36Woo!
17:36You guys are meant to be the wisdom team, but I feel like this one is all about throwing
17:40yourselves headfirst into the chaos.
17:42I like to call it Human Shuffleboard.
17:45And here's how it works.
17:47You'll each be assigned a random pool toy.
17:50You'll then hurl yourselves down the runway in an attempt to land in one of these marked out
17:55point zones to collect as many points as possible.
17:58The person who has the most points at the end will pick up that $5,000 for their chosen charity.
18:05Sound good?
18:06Yes!
18:06That sounds great.
18:07Three, two, one, lift off.
18:08Let's go, baby!
18:13First up, we've got Frank.
18:14You ready?
18:15I'm ready.
18:16Let's go!
18:17He lines it up.
18:21Frank Barnes goes down so smoothly.
18:25He's off to a good start!
18:27Oh, he's holding on!
18:2815 points!
18:30He's like James Bond.
18:33Here we go, Zion.
18:35My inflatable is a shark, and looking at it, I think, yeah, this is going to be a bit awkward.
18:41Rides that shark like a horse.
18:43That was crazy.
18:45That's definitely going to be kept in.
18:5210 points to Zion.
18:54Porsche Woman hit the deck!
18:56Oh, that is great!
18:58Throw from Porsche!
18:5920 points to Porsche Woman!
19:02Liv Parker gives us the moves.
19:04I feel like I've got this.
19:05I can do this.
19:06Here she goes, she hits her!
19:10Bounces back!
19:1310 points!
19:15All right.
19:17Do you know what I'm going to do, I think?
19:19Is I'm going to get Bri to push me.
19:25I'm not going to be able to stop myself.
19:27I don't know, I'll just land where I land, I guess.
19:31She gets 15 points!
19:35She runs, jumps on the track.
19:39Right in the first square, minimum points.
19:42Here he goes!
19:43Got the water shoe on for good luck!
19:46He hits all!
19:4815 points to Louis!
19:51All right, second round.
19:53Give it a home!
19:54Come on, Benny!
20:02There's gasps.
20:04Squares.
20:10There's indistinguishable noises.
20:14The whole thing's just confusing.
20:17I'm all good.
20:19No, don't help her.
20:20Let her go.
20:21Yeah, I'm fine.
20:22I won't help her.
20:23I'm actually doing really quite well.
20:28Oh!
20:32It's an amazing moment to watch.
20:38Ah, well, I'm disappointed, but I had a good time.
20:43Exciting first charity challenge.
20:45I'll tell you what, after reviewing the points, we have a playoff.
20:51Portia versus Louis, it's going to be sudden death.
20:54Ready?
20:56Go!
21:04Oh, no, she's gone to the minus five.
21:11Louis, ten points and the winner of this charity challenge.
21:17That charity challenge is going to be hard to talk.
21:21And a big congratulations to you, Louis.
21:24You've picked up the first 5k for your chosen charity.
21:29Can you tell us a little bit about where that money's going, mate?
21:32They work with rangatahi to make sure, despite what kind of start they may come from,
21:36they have all the opportunities they deserve to pursue their dreams.
21:39I hope that 5k is going to help out a lot of people.
21:42Good job, mate.
21:42Well done.
21:43It's time to head back to your kainga and get ready for that team face-off.
21:47Let's see if you can go back to back.
21:49I'm backing our team, but I think the other team have some surprises up their sleeve.
21:56They're going to want to redeem themselves.
22:13It's only day two on the island, and I'm getting the impression not everyone's thrilled with the menu.
22:19Oh, look at that. That looks like shit.
22:24We had so much leftover rice, so chucked it in the pot, put heaps of water on it, and just
22:29made some congee.
22:31That's not congee. It's gruel, dude. It's just boiled water and rice.
22:36Nah, it's yum.
22:40Oh, nah.
22:41Nah, can't do it.
22:42Can't do it, bro.
22:43Can't hack it.
22:43Can't do it.
22:44Can't hack it.
22:45This is the stuff that Oliver Twist was eating.
22:48You guys want to cook some rice tonight as well, and I'll teach you guys so that if I get
22:53eliminated.
22:54Not even eliminated, but we'll learn just to help.
22:57So the first thing is we leave this until it's boiling, and then we chuck the lid on top.
23:03All right, you can get eliminated then.
23:04Yeah, yeah, easy.
23:05While Kahu are busy swapping rice recipes like my mum's Facebook group,
23:11Takapu are actually plotting their next move.
23:14I think the cool part is I know people now, other than just walking straight and going,
23:18OK, you're doing this.
23:20After yesterday, I'm feeling like we've got some gamers on our head.
23:26We've got Portia, we've got Ben, and we've got a group that's starting to bind together.
23:31I feel like everyone's looking out for each other.
23:33No one's making Polly's knee feel like a problem.
23:36I feel like whatever it is, we can do it.
23:38I reckon they're going to come in hot because they'll feel like they need to redeem after yesterday.
23:44Yeah, yeah.
23:45I think they're going to have a good strategy.
23:47Much more focused, much more grounded.
23:50Oh, yes, they're so much more grounded and focused.
23:54Look at this.
23:54How do we do, how do we do?
23:55Look at this.
23:57That's tight, team.
23:58I love my team.
24:00I love my team so much.
24:01Oh, she could probably do one in yours.
24:03My team's going to work really well under pressure.
24:06How sensitive is your scalper?
24:07They're snot.
24:09All good, see?
24:10Because we've got such a good energy.
24:14Team morale and team connection is so important.
24:18Yeah, love that.
24:19Love that.
24:21We've got this.
24:22Looks like everyone is battle ready, so it must be time for today's face-off.
24:30Tākāpū, looking fired up, wanting to take out their second team face-off.
24:35That's right.
24:38Tākāpū, looking to avenge their fallen friend.
24:48Tākāpū, looking to avenge their fallen friend.
24:54This one is called Reel in the Puzzle.
24:57The Kaihoutu will split the team into four carriers, three puzzlers.
25:02Two carriers must first run out and untangle the ropes by flicking them over the posts.
25:07Once the ropes are free, run them back to your teammates.
25:09The next pair will clip them onto the winch and start cranking, pulling across a cargo box.
25:14Once the cargo box reaches the end, unclip the rope, run it back, clip it onto the next box.
25:20Inside are the puzzle pieces.
25:21The puzzlers will then build a three-level tower, making sure each level is even before moving on to the
25:27next.
25:28First team to complete the tower, or after 90 minutes, the first to complete the first level wins.
25:36You can swap puzzlers at any time, but once they step out, they're out.
25:41I am very amped up to do this.
25:44It's the first kind of challenge where it looks like we really have to work as a team.
25:48Now, Brie, how did you feel about elimination last night?
25:52I thought it was a little bit harsh, if I'm honest.
25:55Same.
25:56Well, tonight, the Kaihoutu of the winning team will get to choose someone from the opposing team
26:04to go up against their own Kaihoutu in a captain's coup.
26:09I feel so much relief that there is no elimination tonight.
26:14It's exciting stuff.
26:17So excited.
26:19The risk is huge.
26:21I mean, Porsche is a fantastic captain.
26:23So it's really important that we keep her in that position, because at the moment it's going great.
26:28We want her being the captain for a long time.
26:31You want to talk reward?
26:32Yay!
26:37It's pizza!
26:40We're going to go extra hard.
26:42I think we're all set to get some revenge.
26:45But it would be perfect for pizza, I'm telling you.
26:49Let's get into it.
26:53All right, Porsche, who's sitting this one out for Takapu?
26:56We've got Polly sitting out just to rest her knee a little bit longer.
26:58All right, will Kaihoutu bring the fury, or will the wisdom of Takapu prevail once again?
27:12Go, Vinnie.
27:14Both teams up to a flying start.
27:17Vinnie has cleared two posts already.
27:19Go away, take some of the slack back.
27:21Take some of the slack away, mate.
27:23Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:23Yeah, nice.
27:23Take the slack back, yeah.
27:25Yep, that's it.
27:25We are very lucky to have Ben, because he's tall.
27:29That height advantage is really important for us.
27:36Takapu, untangle their rope, working on their winch.
27:39Yeah, come here, come here, come here.
27:41Kahu, not far behind, they've got one more post left.
27:45Vin's struggling on the third little rope toss there.
27:48I'm trying to figure out already with Vin when to tap in and talk to him and when to let
27:52him do his thing.
27:53Come on, Che.
27:57And then Vin was kind enough to invite me.
28:00That's it, boy.
28:04Kahu untangles their rope.
28:06And I nailed it.
28:07And Kahu moving their first box.
28:11Takapu are already on to their second.
28:16The boys are just pumping along.
28:19And seriously, Simon is jacked seeing his back muscles.
28:24And I'm just like, what the heck, dude?
28:28Both teams working on their second box.
28:30This is an even game.
28:32And they're moving.
28:34They're kind of muscles that you haven't really put under too much pressure in recent times.
28:39Nice, nice.
28:40I'll run it.
28:42Right, your side up.
28:43You're right.
28:44Look at David Correos.
28:46He can move.
28:48He doesn't know where he's going, but he can move.
28:50Yeah, I think I'd describe myself as pretty chaotic.
28:53Even when I'm not trying to be, I'm still chaotic.
28:56That makes me a real liability, doesn't it?
28:58Takapu, pulling in their final box.
29:01Kahu, right behind them.
29:04Come on.
29:05Go strong.
29:07That's us.
29:08Yep, yep, yep, yep.
29:11All right, you're right, Kip.
29:15That's us.
29:16That's us.
29:17Takapu have their third box.
29:19Kahu have their third box.
29:23Kahu into their puzzle now.
29:26And nowhere, anywhere, did I say I was good at puzzles.
29:31Just, what are you guys feeling?
29:33I don't even have a clue.
29:34I think it's just, I don't know, I've, I put my hand up to be part of the puzzling team.
29:40So I'm like, come on now, time to step out of the comfort zone.
29:43Do you think we just, let's just try and let's, we're going so fast.
29:48And then we're like, oh no, this puzzle is really hard.
29:58Liv, how are you guys going?
30:00Um, yeah, just trying to figure it out.
30:05What are you thinking, Simon?
30:06Yeah, we're going to swap in.
30:08Harrison.
30:08Harrison, you're in.
30:10Nick's first puzzler to be swapped out.
30:13That means she is out of the game.
30:15Jayden.
30:16Portia, what do you want to do?
30:18I'm going to swap Zion out for Ben.
30:20All right, Zion, you're out.
30:21Ben, you're in.
30:29All right, everyone, we're 25 minutes in.
30:36Is it just about getting them all level?
30:38It's just getting them all level.
30:39So match them, match up the size.
30:41We're looking at like the, the thickness of the paint on the side.
30:46We're looking at the cut of the wood.
30:48Should we take them all off and then try to match as many sizes as we can?
30:51We're looking at the colours of the wood.
30:53Do you think these are three different colours?
30:55Counting stuff.
30:56One, two, three.
30:58We're putting in patterns, we're doing different levels.
31:02None of it's really working.
31:04I'm going to sub out because, yep.
31:06Yep.
31:10Has to be a correct way of doing it.
31:12So it has to be the colour.
31:14Frank steps up to the plate.
31:19Guys, I think we made the puzzle too hard this time.
31:23It's been 90 minutes.
31:25You just need one layer at this point.
31:28Cheers, Jayden.
31:35But I'm just feeling so determined that we're going to get it.
31:38Nice, George.
31:40That's it.
31:41Between the three of us, it feels like we're onto something.
31:45Can we check it?
31:47Do you want to check it?
31:49And then...
32:06Can we check it?
32:07Do you want to check it?
32:10That's it.
32:13Hey, I can see a gap from here.
32:16No, they haven't got it.
32:17There's a big gap like this much.
32:24Nah.
32:30We don't have it.
32:31If you feel if you're on it, stay on it.
32:34I feel like we're close.
32:36Oi, guys, not bad.
32:39No!
32:45Bro, oh, I was getting excited for you.
32:50Pretty close.
32:51Remember, you just need one layer at this point.
32:55I'm on the sidelines and I know that I cannot help them with the puzzle at all.
33:00This is doing my head in.
33:02I don't know.
33:03Just nothing seems to be working.
33:05I feel like I'm bringing nothing.
33:07Louis, do you want to go?
33:10Nah, I'm like, is there anybody else?
33:13But Frank was already in, so...
33:16OK, fresh eyes.
33:17Yeah.
33:18Louis, Swapina and Faria, the last side from Takapu.
33:22I'm put in just to have a different perspective.
33:26Louis, Frank, Portia, these are Takapu's puzzlers now.
33:30We keep sending people in, who then just end up going,
33:34what the?
33:34What is going on here?
33:39Louis is just sitting like a toddler on the ground with these blocks,
33:43looking like he's at daycare, putting blocks.
33:51And I'm moving my blocks around,
33:58making different towers.
33:59I feel like a little kid that's just playing.
34:03And then, all of a sudden...
34:07Go, go, go.
34:08Put this on, put this on, put this on, put this on.
34:11Then Louis goes...
34:12Quick!
34:13Quick, quick, quick.
34:14Go, go, go, go, go, go.
34:14All right, Takapu, moving pieces onto the board.
34:16Go, go, go, go, go, go.
34:18Make sure it's really flush, really flush.
34:24Check.
34:25Coming down to check.
34:26This could be it.
34:29The big baby at daycare suddenly decides to have a hoon.
34:46Back of the room!
34:47Back of the room!
34:48Woo!
34:49Woo!
34:50Woo!
34:50It gets it!
34:53I've just done my first puzzle.
34:55Woo!
34:55Well done.
34:56Woo!
34:57And there's hugs and smiles and, you know, because that was work.
35:02Oh, my God, it's over. We have won. I don't know if I'm more excited that we won or that
35:09it's over.
35:14One thing I do know, takapu are fizzing for pizza, but let's hope their cooking skills are better than their
35:20puzzling ones.
35:22It feels so good to win. It feels so good to know we're not having beans and rice.
35:33I can't wait to have pizzas.
35:36And remember, you can't wait to talk about the captain's coup either, Louie.
35:40So there's two things to consider. One, it's who do we want to be their next captain?
35:46And the second point is, can they beat Simon?
35:48Do we pick someone strong like Vinny? Or do we pick some... No, right.
35:52For me, I don't want Vinny to have immunity.
35:54Nah. Who would just be the most disruptive to whatever they've got going on?
35:57Or do we not even want to disrupt what they've got going on?
36:00Yeah, we want more of whatever they're doing.
36:05My first concern is, what's going to help us?
36:10I think for me is, like, what's the best thing for our team?
36:13I don't know what the answer is.
36:15If we did want to keep Simon as captain,
36:19if we'd out someone that maybe would feel uncomfortable with wanting to win.
36:24Because they could throw the challenge, right?
36:27So they could throw the challenge so that Simon stays.
36:29But even if it means giving up potential immunity to them...
36:32Well, people have done that.
36:33It feels like Simon's number one priority is peace in his team,
36:38and that's not really working at the moment.
36:41We're currently winning against them,
36:43and we just feel like maybe his style of leadership, you know, isn't working for them.
36:47Maybe.
36:48So let's keep him in.
36:49Yeah.
36:50That's the aim.
36:51So then, how do we go about that?
36:53Before Takapu spill the beans, let's do a quick vibe check over at Kahu.
36:58Morales are okay.
37:00Nobody's going home, eh?
37:02Even though they're in control, I mean, who cares?
37:05It's still our family.
37:06If they pick me, Simon, you're still captain.
37:09People are already talking about throwing the challenge just so I can say captain.
37:17I'm not doing that.
37:18Is there, straight up, is there anybody that wants to be captain?
37:22I guess the one thing that people love about being the captain is it gives you immunity.
37:27Like, why wouldn't you want that?
37:28Why wouldn't you want immunity?
37:30Seeing how they probably saw me in terms of my fitness,
37:35I don't want to be put up for elimination,
37:37so maybe immunity is something I really need to focus on.
37:40Right now, at this stage of a game, how we all are,
37:42I think it'll be, yeah, anyone being captains is fine.
37:46I don't think people are really thinking long game yet at all.
37:49I really think that people need to start thinking about themselves.
37:53I wonder who they think that our team would, like, cross our team,
37:58and, like, try and sabotage each other.
38:01It's good to work as a team, but that's not going to win you $100,000.
38:06Something tells me Ben hasn't forgotten what this game's all about.
38:11You know, I just wanted to have a yarn to you about it.
38:12I appreciate it.
38:13Away from all, you know, all the...
38:15Ben coming out to see me on the rocks,
38:19he's approached me away from everyone.
38:20We literally just finished a team discussion.
38:23I think we want someone to beat Simon.
38:25Oh, OK.
38:25I think out of that group, Simon's the best person to have as leader.
38:29And with a group like that, that are much younger and a bit,
38:31ma, ma, ma, their energy's a bit erratic.
38:35Yeah.
38:35He's a really good person to have in charge.
38:38It is a little bit sneaky.
38:40I don't think I expected someone to do that
38:42in the first two days of the game.
38:46I get he has a strong opinion about things.
38:49He's very vocal in what he wants and what he wants
38:52and what he thinks and how he feels.
38:54Especially after their last two challenges,
38:57they'll be just what they need.
38:58Yeah.
38:59Is that what you're saying?
39:00Exactly.
39:01So I reckon anybody else in the top seat
39:05is better for us.
39:06Even someone like Vinny.
39:09Someone like Vinny.
39:11Another thing that's playing through my mind,
39:13obviously,
39:14is that last time Simon was on CTI,
39:17he came second place.
39:18He was very close to taking it out.
39:21We don't want him in that captain's seat.
39:23Yeah.
39:25I think that's another great idea.
39:28If the captain coup works in my favor,
39:30that means Simon Barnard is up for elimination.
39:33And that
39:34is exactly where Team Taipaboo
39:36wants him to be.
39:53Simon, crew.
39:55Bree.
40:00Tēnā koutou i tēnei ahi-ahi.
40:02And welcome to the very first captain's coup
40:05of the season.
40:08All right, Portia,
40:09you will get to decide
40:10who from the opposition
40:11will go head-to-head
40:13with the kaihotu in the coup.
40:15This is your chance
40:16to throw a cat amongst the pigeons
40:18and shake things up for the other team.
40:22Simon, you must defend your captaincy.
40:24If you win,
40:25then you'll retain your title.
40:27You'll also earn yourself
40:29a game-changing advantage.
40:32If you lose,
40:33you'll be overthrown.
40:35And in that case,
40:36Portia,
40:37you will earn
40:38that game-changing advantage instead.
40:41That does throw me off a little bit
40:43because I'm like,
40:44what could this advantage be?
40:46Is it going to be
40:47really detrimental to us?
40:49Quite a lot on the line.
40:51Big decision.
40:52Portia,
40:53who's it going to be?
40:54Okay.
40:56Uh,
40:59at the end of the day,
41:01I'm going to go with my gut.
41:05Okay?
41:06We've gone for David.
41:08Whoa.
41:11I guess the thing
41:12that's kind of up for grabs
41:13is like,
41:14one thing benefits me
41:15and the other thing
41:16benefits the team.
41:18That's how I work, David.
41:21This game just knows
41:22how to
41:23pull me,
41:24you know?
41:24Well,
41:25David,
41:26I'm going to let you have a choice
41:27from two Treasure Island classics.
41:30Footbuild
41:31or
41:32Kumara in a box.
41:35Oh.
41:37I think
41:38I'm going to pick
41:39Kumara in a box.
41:41I'm shocked.
41:44All right.
41:45Here's how it's going to work.
41:47There will be a box
41:48in front of each of you.
41:49Inside one of the boxes
41:50will be a Kumara.
41:52One of you
41:53will get to look inside your box.
41:54The other will not.
41:56However,
41:57they do get to ask
41:58the other person questions
41:59about what they did
42:00or didn't see.
42:02Once question time is over,
42:03they will need to decide
42:04whether they want to keep their box
42:06or switch it
42:07for their oppositions.
42:08Whoever ends with the Kumara
42:10inside their box
42:11wins.
42:12So ultimately,
42:13this is a game of deceit.
42:16And bluffing.
42:17I really love
42:18deception board games.
42:19Like bluffing.
42:20Just anything where, like,
42:21there's a bit of trickery.
42:22It's always fun.
42:24All right.
42:25To kick things off,
42:26we're going to have a rock off.
42:28Whoever wins
42:29will decide
42:29if they want to have a look
42:30or if they want
42:31the other person
42:32to have a look.
42:33When you're ready.
42:34I think they've made
42:35the wrong decision.
42:36And you know what?
42:36I'm actually kind of stoked.
42:39Because I know exactly
42:40how I'm going to play it.
42:42Bree,
42:42I want to have a look
42:44in the box.
42:45All right, David.
42:46When you're ready,
42:47have a look inside your box.
42:50Okay.
42:51Okay.
42:57What's the first thing
42:58you saw?
42:59Coomera.
43:00What colour was it?
43:01It was red.
43:05I don't imagine
43:06there'll be a coo.
43:06I could be wrong.
43:07But we sort of had
43:08a wee chin wag
43:09with the team.
43:10So I think that's
43:11the way it will play out.
43:12Do they have, like,
43:13little stringy bits
43:14on the end?
43:14I think, like,
43:14at the tip.
43:16On the tip,
43:17it had, like,
43:17little things coming
43:18out the top of it.
43:19How big is it?
43:21This kind of size.
43:23I'm looking at Dave's face
43:24and I'm like,
43:25what?
43:25Is he going to wink at me?
43:27Can you just
43:28describe it for me?
43:30It's the shape of trust.
43:31That's what it is.
43:33And I'm still looking
43:34for the towel.
43:35I'm still looking for the...
43:38Or something like that.
43:40Would you lie to me?
43:41No.
43:42Is that a sign?
43:44There's still that
43:45slight twitchiness of, like,
43:47what if they flick me
43:47and what does that mean?
43:52Are you in love
43:53at the moment?
43:54I am.
43:55Are you going to ask
43:56her to marry you?
44:00Yeah, probably.
44:02See, I've got some intel.
44:03You do.
44:04I feel like the tables
44:05have turned all of a sudden.
44:07All right, Simon.
44:10Do you want to keep your box
44:11or do you want to switch
44:13it with David's?
44:15I'll swap the box.
44:16Okay.
44:17I'd ask you guys
44:18to switch places.
44:20I'm nervous.
44:21I don't know
44:22what's going to happen.
44:22Sorry, I just outed you
44:24on the TV.
44:25You did.
44:26You actually did.
44:28I think you should ask her
44:29before you open the box.
44:31No.
44:31Look down this camera.
44:33Look down this camera
44:34right now.
44:35Hey, babe.
44:37Love you, Judy.
44:40I want to buy a ring suit.
44:42I want to buy a ring suit.
44:43I want you.
44:44Oh, no, no.
44:47Simon, when you're ready,
44:49have a look inside your box
44:51and tell us
44:52if there's a kumara
44:53in there.
45:05There is.
45:07Simon wins this captain's coup.
45:10It retains his captaincy.
45:14I'm actually really happy
45:16that I've retained the captaincy.
45:19A captain's coup sounds like
45:20people are really disenchanted
45:21and unhappy with you.
45:24I talk a big game,
45:26but the reality is
45:27I do care what people think.
45:29Congratulations, Simon.
45:31You are still the kaihotu
45:32of your team.
45:34You've also picked up this,
45:35a game-changing advantage.
45:38Share it with your team
45:39or keep it to yourself.
45:40That part is up to you.
45:42Come and grab it.
45:44Thank you very much.
45:45Yeah, it happened exactly
45:47how we wanted it.
45:48Simon won captain's coup.
45:49They're going to continue
45:50the run that they're on,
45:52which is not doing well.
45:54It's time to head back
45:54to your kaienga
45:55and rest up.
45:56We'll see you again tomorrow.
45:58Great night.
45:59Good night.
46:00Good night.
46:00Good night.
46:01Good night.
46:02Yeah, I think Team Takapu
46:03has made a very big mistake.
46:06Was that all good?
46:07Dude, that was the coolest.
46:09Because I was going to throw it
46:11the whole time,
46:12and now we've got
46:13a secret advantage.
46:20Next time.
46:21The one behind Libby Ria.
46:23Ooh, Jaden!
46:25The game heats up.
