Celebrity Treasure Island - Season 7 Episode 6
Transcript
00:01Previously on Celebrity Treasure Island.
00:03Will you be my ally?
00:05This is why we're here.
00:06Alliances were formed.
00:08I feel like it would be smart to try and rope Ben into it.
00:11And an unusual face-off result.
00:13We've got a draw?
00:15Simon, who from Takapu will be going up tonight?
00:17Led.
00:17Led to a strategic plan.
00:19Don't love your teammate getting tossed into elimination?
00:22Switch them out for someone else.
00:24Zion takes out this challenge.
00:26Yes!
00:26That saw Kahu saying goodbye once more.
00:31Zion, I think he's just revealed to all of us how strong of a player he is.
00:59Don't let the party go.
01:02Or whatever.
01:05Think of it, don't let the party go.
01:10Here he will.
01:17What?
01:22You're all weak.
01:24Oh!
01:28I'm a guy.
01:43It's day six on Celebrity Treasure Island, and usually about now I'd be making jokes
01:49about rice and beans or teasing Alliance chats, but not today.
01:54Because in just a few hours, something will happen that'll turn this entire game on its head.
02:03I don't know what this means.
02:06I'm racking my brain thinking about all the episodes I've watched and the seasons I've watched,
02:11and I've never seen this.
02:13But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's start with the rice and beans.
02:18Or trying to avoid rice and beans.
02:23Not when you're all f***ing living on rice.
02:26And of course we can't forget about making new friends.
02:29Did you do, like, fitness training?
02:32Friends that we may have to say goodbye to.
02:35Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself again.
02:38I'll cool my jets. Let's just do the episode.
02:41Or did you just go for long runs kind of stuff?
02:43The long running sort of, they were phasing it out.
02:46It's been really nice spending time with Mataw Frank.
02:49I've adopted him as uncle, hearing his rugby stories, stories about him and his whānau.
02:54It's been really nice to connect with such an amazing legend of New Zealand's rugby, of New Zealand history.
03:02How good was Zion last night?
03:05Oh, man.
03:06He's confident, but he doesn't have a lot of self-confidence, you know?
03:09When you don't believe in yourself, it can make life a whole lot more difficult.
03:14He's come in, and I wouldn't say he's timid, but he's reasonably quiet.
03:18But, man.
03:19Being here has done wonders for him as a person.
03:23I think his problem, too, he was intimidated a bit by Vinny.
03:26Now that Vinny's gone, it kind of allows us to really start picking them off.
03:31The more Takapu people we can get to the merger will be really, really great.
03:34That's got to be the aim.
03:35While the athletes plan the demise of Kahu, someone else is in need of a confidence boost.
03:40I just really appreciate you going up in my place last night,
03:44and I just felt really guilty that there was a potential that you could be going home instead of me.
03:48Something that I wasn't expecting was to, like, feel everything so intensely.
03:54I'm just trying to remind myself to breathe and remind myself it's all part of it.
03:58I'm just trying to figure out a way in which I get to the ELIMs and not be like...
04:02and instead be, like, more ready for it.
04:05Liv and I do have a brother-sister relationship.
04:07We both said from day one that, you know, it's the little things that worry us.
04:11We can take comfort in each other feeling like that, and we can help each other through it.
04:15I think what helps is if you find something that you go,
04:18Oh, you know, this is me.
04:20Yeah.
04:20Put your hand up and just own it.
04:22Yeah.
04:22Because that will give you heaps of confidence.
04:24I reckon people underestimate her.
04:25When it comes down to clues and figuring things out, she can go very, very far.
04:30Your time will come.
04:31You've got to beat him.
04:32You've got to beat him at that point.
04:33Yeah.
04:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:35Yeah.
04:35I feel like this ELIM.
04:38Left.
04:38Left.
04:40Right.
04:40Right.
04:42Oh.
04:43Right over to kahu.
04:45I actually heard you sleep talking.
04:47Then I heard Nyx say, do you want to go and get some kena?
04:50Yeah, like, just as the sun was coming up.
04:54I get down there, and then as I'm walking in the dark, I'm thinking, oh, I'm getting scared.
05:01First time in my life, I actually did a karakia.
05:05I just was praying that, you know, all I want is some breakfast.
05:10Tangaro.
05:12God of the ocean.
05:16I'm hungry.
05:18Don't knock me down with a wave.
05:20Don't get an octopus on my arm.
05:23I'm just a harmless girl looking for breakfast.
05:27I'm just a girl standing in front of the sea asking her to love her.
05:31Yeah.
05:32Nyx hasn't seen Notting Hill clearly.
05:34That was a killer line.
05:36No.
05:36Oh.
05:36Oh, my gosh.
05:38Oh, come on, Nyx.
05:39It's a classic.
05:40Sorry, guys.
05:41Sorry, guys.
05:42I'm just a TV host standing in front of a bunch of celebrities asking them to...
05:50Get in here, you lot!
05:57Oh, it's a race.
05:59I look forward to charity challenges, and not just for the opportunity to win something.
06:03You know they're going to be fun.
06:05Kia ora.
06:05Team Takapu, welcome to today's charity challenge, where you guys will duke it out to win that
06:10$5,000 for your worthy cause.
06:13The gang's all still here, which means you guys have been on quite the run.
06:18Liv, what do you put that down to?
06:19Currently, our main goal is to bring everyone home, and so we feel really unified, and I
06:24think that's an important reason as to why we're all still here.
06:28What would you say are the roles within the team?
06:30Like, is there a mum and dad?
06:32Is there an auntie?
06:33Is there an uncle?
06:34Go on, dad.
06:35Mum and dad.
06:36We've got our hats up.
06:39Alright, should we give it a nudge?
06:41Yes.
06:41For this one, you'll be all sporting a very stylish Hessian sack.
06:46On go, you'll have three minutes to collect as many balls as possible and shove them into
06:51your sacks.
06:52The small balls will be worth five points, and the large balls will be worth ten.
06:57But look out for those red balls, because they're bad news.
07:01They'll cost you points.
07:02However, you could strategically place them into someone else's sack if you catch my drift.
07:08We'll play this one in rounds, and the winners will go head to head in a final.
07:13Alright, who's ready to go balls to the wall?
07:15Because it's time to sack up.
07:16It's ball time, baby.
07:20Alright, our first round, Zion versus two rugby players.
07:25What am I supposed to do?
07:27Go!
07:28Frank strategically grabbing those big balls.
07:32Here comes Portia.
07:33Oh, she's chasing Frank.
07:35That is terrifying.
07:39Zion trying to stitch Frank up.
07:41Here comes Portia from behind.
07:42Let's go.
07:43Zion, how can I pick on him?
07:46Shall we just have some fun with Zion?
07:48I don't think I've done bad stories about them.
07:50I've never criticised them whatsoever.
07:53Go away!
07:54Go!
07:55Portia!
07:56Go for Zion!
07:57Go away!
07:58I think that's that killer instinct that they both have playing at the highest level.
08:04Target the weak guy and run him over.
08:07It's all over!
08:08Stop the clock!
08:12I know how Polly feels now.
08:14See you soon.
08:18Round two.
08:20Round two.
08:20We've got Louie versus Ben versus Ria versus the human wrecking ball, Les Parker.
08:26Go!
08:28Round of four makes it a little more tight within that circle.
08:33My strategy is just stick to my own, get as many balls as I can.
08:37Everyone, focus.
08:38Gathering.
08:40Stay away.
08:41Let me clean my balls.
08:42Oh!
08:43Get it out of here.
08:44Get it out of here.
08:45Everything's fun.
08:45It seems like a Christmas family game.
08:48Is that all of them?
08:48So you just start trying to ram the red ball in anywhere we can.
08:52No!
08:53No!
08:54Run away!
08:55Don't help me!
09:01Run!
09:01Run!
09:03I'm gonna stop you there!
09:09All right, finals time.
09:11Our winner for round one, Fright!
09:16Woo!
09:17We're very close.
09:18Let's just try it.
09:18We'll be going head to head with our winner from round two, Louie.
09:23Woo!
09:25It feels like I'm versing my uncle.
09:27I'm gonna give him my best nudge, and I know he would want me to.
09:31Go!
09:32Come on, guys!
09:33Woo!
09:34Different strategies could come into play.
09:37Frank gathering like his life depends on it.
09:39So's Louie.
09:40Fast as he can.
09:41Fast as he can.
09:41Fast as he can.
09:42$5,000 on the line.
09:44I'm trying to hold it, and I'm trying to get away from him,
09:46and I'm also trying to fill things up.
09:48You look around, and there's nothing left but red balls.
09:50Not the red ones, Frank!
09:51Okay, okay.
09:52All right, here we go.
09:52Oh, now they try and duke it out.
09:56Oh, no!
09:57I'm gonna knock this guy over.
10:00Frank trying to get away from Louie.
10:02He goes down.
10:03It's strategy.
10:04He was trying to put one, so I thought the only way he can stop that is to try and
10:08pull him down.
10:09And then he fell on top of me, and I'm thinking, oh!
10:12He's a big man.
10:14Louie sits on, Frank!
10:16I'll tell all my mokopuna at the time, I bumped off an all-black legend.
10:23Great!
10:23He's won it at the end.
10:25That's it.
10:25All over.
10:28Let's talk scores.
10:29One of you scored 260 points.
10:33Wow!
10:34The other a whopping 350 points.
10:40Wow!
10:42With back-to-back charity challenge wins, it's Louie Davis!
10:45Woo!
10:46Woo!
10:49$10,000 for a community organisation like Te Oroho will go a long way.
10:54They help rangatahi achieve all their aspirations so they have a fair crack.
10:59My old man, he grew up without a dad, and they made a massive difference in his life.
11:04And because of them, I got to have an awesome dad.
11:06I appreciate you sharing that with us.
11:08Amazing work, mate.
11:09Another 5K going to those guys.
11:11Well done.
11:14But the fun time is over.
11:17It's time to head back to your kaya, because that team face-off is just around the corner.
11:21We'll see you there.
11:22See you guys.
11:23Off you go.
11:23Get out of here.
11:27Going into this next team face-off, we have eliminated three of team kahu, so we're feeling strong.
11:35But as with everything on Treasure Island, we have no idea what is coming up.
11:39Shit, team face-off.
11:50So I know you said the other day that you didn't feel like we, you know, should have an alliance
11:55or anything, but I feel like we're getting to that point.
11:57I guess I am feeling nervous about approaching Ben, just because he had said the other day when it kind
12:04of came up in conversation.
12:05I personally wouldn't feel any more uncomfortable if I had to proverbially throw you under the bus than I would
12:12with any other member of our team.
12:13I guess the risks are, he's not keen, and then we've showed our cards to him.
12:21So Portia and I have teamed up, and wondering if you wanted to as well.
12:28So what does that mean exactly?
12:30Well, we just try and protect each other from...
12:32From elimination as long as we have.
12:34Just until the merger.
12:36Okay.
12:37So you're just inviting me to come into a nanny type situation.
12:44That's not really instilling a lot of faith.
12:47I don't know that he's feeling any sort of particular alliance with me.
12:51I'm not saying yes, but I'm not saying no.
12:55Okay.
12:56Well, that's just on the table, so let us know somehow.
13:00I don't know.
13:02Okay.
13:03You know, it's obvious that Portia is a real threat in this competition.
13:06So, I don't know, we'll have to wait and see.
13:08I don't know, I don't know where his head's at.
13:11Alright, thank you very much.
13:12While Ben may not know where his head's at,
13:16Zion's is firmly in the game.
13:21Advantage block.
13:22Someone trying to get clever, use this card to block their advantage.
13:27When the other team plays their advantage,
13:30cancels that out.
13:31It's very powerful.
13:32The game's starting to get real, eh?
13:34Yeah.
13:34You can certainly feel it.
13:35The emotions are higher.
13:36The stakes are higher.
13:38The stakes are even higher when you're down two players.
13:41Hey, Simon.
13:43You know, I did wake up this morning thinking about that.
13:44So there's five of us now, and seven of them.
13:48Seven of them.
13:48We are seriously going to have to talk now.
13:50You know how this show works.
13:52I'm the kind of guy that will lead by democracy,
13:55and I don't want to form alliances.
13:57But I certainly don't want to force anybody to do anything.
14:01If you guys want to, that's up to you.
14:03You don't need to tell me,
14:03because I get that there's part of the component of that.
14:05But I also feel like, are we as good as our word?
14:08And we don't do that.
14:10We actually breathe and live what we sort of say we do,
14:13which is it's kind of a special bond.
14:15I want to see all of us in the top five.
14:18Well, that's what I was just about to say.
14:20Do we stick together when the team merges,
14:22or we go down together?
14:23Yeah.
14:24I like that.
14:25It feels yuck.
14:26It feels so yuck having to go behind you guys' backs.
14:29I told myself that I would come into this game fun
14:32and not revealing how much deception
14:36and how much strategy actually exists in here.
14:39Are we all committed to doing that?
14:40So we're actually saying we're not going to do alliances?
14:43No.
14:43This is our alliance.
14:44This is the alliance.
14:45We're doing one alliance.
14:46Top five.
14:47And it's just a good feeling to know
14:49that none of that deception is going to be towards my own team,
14:51and that we've got a target.
14:52I've been just hanging out in the background,
14:55analysing everything that's been happening throughout this whole game.
14:58Well, with that in mind, we have to win these challenges.
15:01That's how we're going to get all five.
15:03We can't lose a team challenge.
15:07Whenever we go out for the challenges,
15:09those are the moments that I can attack.
15:10We need more information about how the other team is working
15:13and how we can pick that apart and use that to our advantage.
15:19And now for something completely different.
15:22So, I've been doing a lot of thinking about this alliance.
15:27Jokes!
15:28It's another alliance chat.
15:30We're in Portia.
15:31I am very happy to say that I accept that offer.
15:35Awesome call.
15:36So going forward, we will look out for one another.
15:38There is definitely a benefit of having Ben in the alliance.
15:41He's Kaiho too.
15:43He can make decisions.
15:44If either of you end up getting taken to the other team,
15:47to team Kahu,
15:48as long as I retain the captaincy,
15:50I will not put that person up for elimination.
15:54Three, two, one.
15:56Tuck the hood.
15:59Tuck the hood.
16:21Tuck the hood.
16:23Tuck the hood.
16:24I'm keen to give this a go.
16:26I'm internally hyping myself up,
16:29hoping that I can be a good and worthy member of the team.
16:33Nomai, haramai,
16:34and welcome back guys to another team face off.
16:38Kahu, I'd like to know, day six in this game,
16:40what's the most interesting thing you've learnt about your fellow teammates?
16:44I don't have to say it's Simon's beauty regime.
16:48His toiletry kit is more, like, diverse than mine.
16:51How many steps, Simon?
16:53Look, I've got a few steps, Brie,
16:55but it's probably the nose little trimmers and the tweezers and...
16:59Are you waxing top to bottom?
17:00I shave. I don't wax, Brie.
17:03Very aerodynamic of you, Simon.
17:05How about you, Tuckfu?
17:06That was a great bit, by the way.
17:08You guys have to match that.
17:11We know each other's poo routines.
17:13I guess that's probably the most exciting part about our team.
17:15We've kind of, like, singed up.
17:17We poo in a rhythm. It's part of the cycle of nature.
17:20I wish I didn't ask.
17:21Yeah, we don't know what he's talking about either.
17:23Well, on the back of that, let's get into the whiru.
17:29Today's challenge is an all-out battle of strength.
17:33Each team will push the platform to the other end,
17:35while the opposing team tries to push it in the opposite direction.
17:39We'll be playing in rounds.
17:41Match-ups of my choosing.
17:423v3 women, 2v2 men, and so on.
17:45First team to win four rounds takes out the game.
17:48Okay, today is not the day that I prove myself as a really worthy member of the team.
17:54I'm so keen to get amongst it.
17:56I want a one-on-one.
17:57I don't really care with who.
17:58I want a one-on-one with someone.
18:00Now, to even things up,
18:02takapu, you'll be sitting out two males.
18:05I'm excited because I can't sit out because I sat out yesterday,
18:08and there's not a single person that they can put on the other side
18:12that I won't roll their thing over.
18:17Brute strength isn't the only thing that brings home the win.
18:21The kaihotu of the winning team will get to choose one person from the opposing team
18:25to battle their own kaihotu in tonight's captain's coup.
18:29Tonight, nobody's going home.
18:34Now, this is a silly question, but who's hungry?
18:36Oh, my God.
18:38Very silly.
18:39Well, if you win today, I don't think you're going to be
18:42because I've got meat, meat, a little bit of salad bread, but mainly meat.
18:48Hold yourself back.
18:49A barbecue to feed the whole whanau.
18:53All right, who thinks that's worth playing for?
18:54Yes, my God.
18:56Then let's get into it.
18:57Woo! Woo!
19:00All right, for takapu, we have Ria, Portia, Liv, for kahu,
19:04we have next Georgia, te ao.
19:06Some could argue that Vinny was the muscle of our team.
19:11Clas, kwaari te.
19:13Aye.
19:13But we've got three strong wahine on here.
19:17Three, two, one.
19:21We are not to be messed with.
19:23Tumata!
19:34We're locked in.
19:36You don't feel a single move, and I'm like, ooh, damn.
19:39No, no, no, we got this.
19:41Here come the girls from Kahu, though.
19:45Get takapu, hold it.
19:46They're going, they're going, they're gone.
19:48Come on, kahu, get the first point.
19:52Yes!
19:54Winner, winner, winner, chicken dinner.
19:57Wahine for?
19:58Nice work, girls.
20:00First point on the board.
20:02That feels good.
20:03Right, for kahu, we have David and Simon.
20:06For takapu, we have Louis and Ben.
20:09I've blown my calf muscle.
20:10I've done this one seven times, this one four times.
20:13But I don't want to tell the team,
20:14because then they might have to do it all on their own.
20:17So I'm going to do it.
20:19Players, kua rite!
20:20I used to be an Olympic weightlifter.
20:21I think I might actually be able to, like,
20:23finally show some of my strengths in this game.
20:27Three, two, one.
20:29Tumata!
20:31Takapu get a strong start!
20:33For some reason, I think David is a powerlifter in his past life.
20:37But I'm still looking at him like,
20:40I'm going to roll you over.
20:41Can David and Simon hold them off?
20:44I can't!
20:46Takapu!
20:46Take out a point!
20:47We've got one apiece!
20:49I'm so gassed.
20:50I've just given everything that I can for this challenge.
20:52So I'm really quite scared.
20:55All right.
20:56Breathe.
20:57Do you want to pick a match up?
20:58David, I have not thought about that.
21:01This is what I want.
21:02Kaihotu versus OG Kaihotu.
21:05Simon versus Portia.
21:08Let's go, baby!
21:09Let's go!
21:11I'm excited.
21:13This is something that I was waiting for.
21:15Somewhere till I express my power.
21:18Okay, Bree.
21:20Oh, man.
21:21This is going to be so fun.
21:23Three, two, one.
21:26Tumata!
21:28We've got a stand-up.
21:30We've got the two mystery guests going back and forth.
21:33Battle's on, man.
21:35Who will take this out?
21:37Y'all know this is going to make the promo.
21:40I've got nothing to lose.
21:42If I beat Porsche,
21:43then I've beaten one of the greatest rugby players of all time.
21:46Porsche, I think, would really be gutted if she doesn't beat me.
21:49I know it.
21:50Takapu at one point!
21:51Kahu at one point!
21:52Who can get the second?
21:57This is going to annoy me for the rest of my life if he beats me.
22:00I can't let this man beat me.
22:02Go, boys!
22:03Race!
22:04Come on!
22:06Go, Simon!
22:07Who will get tired first?
22:10Who will raise that pin?
22:15Portia!
22:16Has she taken Simon?
22:19Oh, no!
22:20Oh, no!
22:21I felt Simon just pull away.
22:24And instantly he looks and he's in pain.
22:27I'm worried about Simon now.
22:30Oh, oh!
22:31You all right, Simon?
22:32Yeah, all good.
22:34No, I'm not actually.
22:35It's definitely torn.
22:37That's all right.
22:39Get that at 58.
22:40Get it!
22:41As soon as I launched, I just felt my calf go.
22:44I've done it so many times, I know exactly the feeling.
22:46I've definitely torn it.
22:48Oh, what?
22:49Yeah.
22:50Yeah.
22:50Have you done it before?
22:51Yeah.
22:52So I don't think there's anything you're going to be able to do.
22:55I would have really loved to do that proper, because I think it would have been actually quite a good
22:59contest.
23:00I think we would have been like two balls, butting heads for a long time.
23:03That was awesome.
23:04It was a pleasure to go against you.
23:06I just feel so bad.
23:09I just wanted to beat him, but I never wanted to hurt him in that way.
23:14Simon, sorry that happened to you, mate.
23:16How are you feeling?
23:17I just gutted, because I've always had weak calves, so as soon as I saw the push, I just had
23:23a gut feel my calf was going to go.
23:25But these guys still got a job to do.
23:28Awesome, Simon.
23:29All right, quick recap.
23:31We've got two points to Takapu, one point to Kahu.
23:34We're going to do a 2v2 mixed.
23:36Step on up, please.
23:40All right, for Takapu, we have Ben and Ria.
23:42Now for Kahu, we have Nyx and David take the weight.
23:46Three, two, one.
23:48Teematha!
23:50Straight back to a standoff.
23:52Can Kahu even these points up?
23:54They get a big lurch.
23:55It's a real good battle, and I can tell Ben does not want to give in.
23:59Can they hold it?
24:00Ben's feet slipping.
24:02Can he get his grip back?
24:03I tell you what, Nyx is a powerhouse, and David's also there.
24:09Kahu pushing that!
24:10They steamroll over us.
24:13Like we're not even there.
24:15I channeled that weightlifting.
24:19I haven't channeled that energy in a really long time.
24:22Kahu!
24:23Take their second point!
24:25I'm thinking, okay, we got this.
24:29Kahu two, Takapu two.
24:31Next up, we're going 1v1, female.
24:34Georgia up against Liv.
24:36Ricking ball!
24:37I don't know if Georgia knows who she's up against.
24:40The prospect of the challenge is daunting, but knowing I'm doing it against Georgia gives me a little bit of
24:46ease.
24:46Not because I think that I can take her out, but just because she seems like a really nice person.
24:52Players, are you ready?
24:54Yeah.
24:553, 2, 1.
24:57Ti Mata!
24:59Georgia gets an early lead in the game.
25:02You know when a gust of wind is just like...
25:05Liv, fighting with all she's got!
25:07You just have to give in to it.
25:09Can she hold it?
25:10No!
25:10No, she can't!
25:12Kahu!
25:12Take another point!
25:14We've got three to two!
25:16This moment with Simon's just happened, we're all feeling that, but then also, like, we have to keep winning.
25:22We've got to, like, band together as a team and try and just push through.
25:27All right, we've got three points, Pekahu.
25:30Two Fatakapu.
25:32This is match point.
25:33Fatakapu, we have Ria, Louie, Portia, Pekahu.
25:37We have Piao, David, Nyx.
25:40Me and Nyx get caught up.
25:41Last time, she beat me.
25:44This one, I'm taking her out.
25:47It's me this time.
25:50Three, two, one.
25:53Timata!
25:56I was so ready for this challenge.
25:58I start pushing, and as I placed one of my legs down...
26:01Ah!
26:02F**k!
26:04F**k!
26:06I heard a noise that I'd definitely heard before.
26:11Something had snapped.
26:14F**k!
26:16You all right, David?
26:25I'm feeling pretty gutted.
26:27I didn't want to let down the rest of my team.
26:31I was ready to give it my all.
26:32It just really sucks that it ended up like this.
26:36This couldn't be going any worse for Team Kahu.
26:39David and Simon are sat side by side, each have a leg taped up.
26:43What is happening here?
26:45All right, teams, we're going to call this one here.
26:47We're going to call it a draw.
26:49David, Simon, stay where you are.
26:50We'll get medics to come and check you out.
26:52Everyone else, back to your kainga.
27:17Kahu's been taking a beating.
27:21We just get something, and then it's boom, just like the waves.
27:28We just get up, and then they crash.
27:33There's so many unanswered questions, and I'm in absolute shock.
27:39I'm just processing once again what this means for our team.
27:44I can't believe it's just us.
27:46Like, what if they end up going home?
27:48What's going to happen with us?
27:51The ideal outcome would be for our team to come back and still be,
27:56Hey, actually, it was nothing.
27:58I just got a cramp.
28:02But I've got to be realistic.
28:04As much as I want them here with us,
28:06I would prefer them to be somewhere comfortable being looked after.
28:11Of course, I would rather that.
28:14Honestly, like, I'm racking my brain thinking about all the episodes I've watched
28:18and the seasons I've watched, and I've never seen this.
28:21I feel like we're just really getting the hits after one or the other.
28:23We're getting hammered.
28:25I can't.
28:26But we're not going down without a fight.
28:29No.
28:30Regardless of what happens, if we do some sort of merge or swap or something,
28:34I think we're still—
28:35It's us three.
28:36It's us three, yeah.
28:36It's us three, yeah.
28:37It's us three, yeah.
28:38Let's get our togs on.
28:39Go cleanse in the moana.
28:40Finish the shit.
28:41Yeah.
28:42I wonder if Takapua are also feeling the need for a cleansing swim.
28:49As soon as David's calf went, like, no joy, no fun in the game.
28:55I was like, this sucks.
28:56Yeah.
28:57Who wants to win that way?
28:58You want to beat people because you beat them.
29:01You beat them with strategy.
29:02You beat them with fair play.
29:04Not because of an accident.
29:06They have three players that can play the game now.
29:10Three players that aren't injured.
29:12We have seven.
29:13It feels crazy to be playing seven versus three.
29:18You can't even come up with scenarios because it's supposed to be a captain's coup.
29:21A car whose captain is injured.
29:23What's going to happen next?
29:25I think there's a lot of twists and turns coming tonight.
29:28Yeah.
29:29We're all really, really lost.
29:32I know a thing or two about Simon's determination and his drive.
29:36I went up against him in 2015's Dancing with the Stars.
29:39He took that out.
29:41We're just making the assumption that David and Simon are both going to leave.
29:44Holly could hardly walk.
29:45She stayed until she was eliminated.
29:47You never know.
29:48Going into this captain's coup, I will be more surprised if Simon doesn't turn up.
29:54I want them to stay.
29:56I want them to stay too.
29:57Because I kind of feel like even though they're on the opposing team, we're all in this together.
30:02Well, Ben, this time the power is out of your hands.
30:07I'm the one with all the answers, so get on down here.
30:13There's my girls.
30:14My girls.
30:16Come on in.
30:21We noticed that Simon and David aren't there.
30:24That makes me really nervous.
30:28Oh, my God.
30:29If it is me, Georgia, T against all these Takapu, let's go.
30:38Tēnā koutou i tēnā ahi ahi.
30:40And welcome back, everyone, to a very different Captain's Coup.
30:45After receiving medical attention,
30:49Simon and David had to be withdrawn from the game.
30:53They were obviously devastated, but they're okay.
30:57Simon made a profound impact on me.
31:01Simon.
31:02I'm Georgia. Nice to meet you, Georgia.
31:04We present to you your crown.
31:07I know that it's not goodbye,
31:10and I'm sure we will stay connected in the outside world.
31:14Come on, we're going for a team swim.
31:16Since I lost my wife,
31:20I've really struggled.
31:23Didn't want to do this,
31:25because I'm not really up for getting naked
31:28in front of the seven random celebrities.
31:33But...
31:34Being here is just an extraordinary experience.
31:36I've also met some incredible people
31:39with incredible backstories,
31:41and that's what I've always grown up believing.
31:43Everybody's got a story to tell.
31:44I'm just giving her everything that I've got.
31:48You came in, and you pointed straight to...
31:50You said that I would be a big influence one day.
31:54This that Vinny gave me...
31:56That was such a precious moment,
31:58and it was a moment that was bigger than the game.
32:00How lucky are we
32:01to actually take part in a show like this?
32:06I'm proud of myself,
32:07and I'm grateful to my kids,
32:08if you're watching my grandkids,
32:10for getting me to do it.
32:13Now, get me off as well.
32:17Are you in love at the moment?
32:20I didn't even get my moment,
32:21like the other guys.
32:24You know how jealous I was,
32:26and everyone else crying,
32:27and everyone else...
32:28I wanted that moment too,
32:30and I don't even get it.
32:31Don't even go for the way to...
32:33Don't even go for the way to...
32:35I think coming here originally,
32:37I just wanted to go on a holiday,
32:39chill out, play some games,
32:42win some money for my charity,
32:44but look at this!
32:46I've really made some lifelong friends.
32:48Let's go shower!
32:50I didn't realise how life-changing
32:52this show was going to be for me.
32:54Normally when I'm put in those situations,
32:55I'm thinking about everything else.
32:57What do people think about me?
32:59What kind of work have I got coming up?
33:01Where am I going to go next?
33:03But this time was different.
33:05This time,
33:06I actually got to be present,
33:09and enjoy the moment,
33:10and it just made me really appreciate my life,
33:14and appreciate the people around me.
33:16Love you Jenny!
33:19I might buy a ring soon!
33:22Team Kahu,
33:23you know what the strategy is.
33:25Go hard,
33:26be strategic,
33:27and get Team Blue.
33:29Before Simon left,
33:31he wanted me to hand over his captaincy
33:33to one of his remaining team members.
33:35Nyx,
33:36you are the new Kaihotu of your team.
33:43Why did he do that?
33:53Nyx, how does that feel,
33:54that Simon wanted you to take over
33:56and lead your team?
33:58It's going to make me cry.
34:00Did you guys have a connection?
34:02Yeah.
34:05We talked a lot about my kids,
34:07and the struggle that I've been through
34:09to get back to them.
34:10So maybe he put me in a motherly position.
34:14I hope my kids are proud of me,
34:17and it makes me get a little bit emotional,
34:19because I thought I was going to come on this show
34:22and embarrass them.
34:25I'm just proud of me for that.
34:29They will be proud of me.
34:33Well, if it's worth anything,
34:35I think you'll be a fantastic leader for your team.
34:38Yeah.
34:39Obviously, after the events of today,
34:40it has left the teams very uneven,
34:43and we're about to shake things up.
34:47Everyone, apart from the Kaihotu,
34:49will drop their buffs into this box,
34:51and we will randomly draw new teams.
34:57I'm feeling super anxious.
34:59This amazing team that we have worked so hard to build up,
35:04it's about to be smashed to bits.
35:07Once we've done that,
35:09the Kaihotu will face off against each other
35:11in a head-to-head battle for a game-changing advantage.
35:15Trust me when I say this one is huge.
35:20I feel like I've been punched in the gut.
35:23Things are not going to be the same again.
35:25I could be moving to Kauho,
35:27or I could be losing teammates that I really love.
35:31This has changed the game completely.
35:42All right, how this is going to work,
35:44I'll ask you to come up one at a time,
35:46and I'll randomly select you a new buff,
35:48and that will be your new team.
35:50Let's kick things off with Louie.
35:52Come on down.
35:55Oh, my God, what if I'm captain,
35:58and I've got a team full of takapu
36:00that absolutely want to take me out?
36:08Kauho, go join your new team.
36:13I was with all my mates.
36:15We were winning.
36:16We had so much fun together,
36:19and when I held the orange in my hand,
36:23I felt like that had ended for me.
36:29Kauho, go rejoin your team.
36:32Thank God I've got one of my mates with me.
36:39You're going home.
36:43Okay, nothing personal.
36:45Georgia, come on down.
36:47I just want to stay.
36:49I've had so much change.
36:50I just want there to be one day
36:52of having my people that are left.
37:05Taka poos, your new team.
37:08I'm feeling really overwhelmed
37:11and quite alone, to be honest.
37:14Just what does this mean for me in this game?
37:23Kauho, go join your team.
37:29So many things are going through my mind.
37:33Where does this leave things with me and Portia and Ben?
37:36I'm anxious about what this next chapter is going to look like, you know?
37:44Kauho, mate, go join your new team.
37:50Zion gives off some really cool energy,
37:53and we've seen him in the elimination ring,
37:54so I think he's a weapon.
37:59Losing big players like that,
38:01it's going to cause huge havoc in our team,
38:03so I'm not feeling great.
38:06As there is only blue buffs remaining,
38:08Liv, Portia, you'll stay put.
38:11Losing Zion, Ria, and Louis,
38:15that's pretty much half our team.
38:17Half our whanau is gone,
38:18and your whanau is your base, your support system.
38:21Our base is gone,
38:22and our family's falling apart.
38:26Portia, this has obviously made you quite emotional.
38:31We knew it was going to get to this at some point.
38:33But I think it was just such a shock.
38:35And do you feel like in this game,
38:37your one bit of comfort is your team
38:39that you're building these bonds with,
38:41and obviously to have that pulled out from underneath you
38:44is a huge change?
38:46Yeah, absolutely.
38:47And it's nothing about the other team or anything like that.
38:50It's just you had your comfort.
38:54Georgia, I also just want to acknowledge
38:56that really tough for you.
38:58How are you feeling?
39:00Feels like I've lost my whole team at once,
39:02which is hard.
39:03I know it's tough,
39:04and I appreciate you guys all being here
39:07and playing this game.
39:08And we're doing it for a very special reason,
39:11and that is for your charities.
39:12Totally.
39:13I want to welcome her,
39:14and I want her to feel a sense of belonging into our team.
39:17But I also feel like I've lost my whanau to another team.
39:20All right, onwards and upwards.
39:23Nyx, Ben, let's talk about what you'll be facing.
39:28This challenge is called Flat Stack.
39:33Each of you will start in the middle of a wobbly beam
39:36with a paddle in your hand.
39:38At one end will be a table containing coloured squares.
39:41At the other will be an empty platform.
39:44On go, I'll reveal a board,
39:46showing you the order that you need to place those coloured squares in.
39:49You'll have 15 seconds to have a look,
39:51and then from memory,
39:53you'll need to restack your coloured squares in the correct order.
39:56At any point,
39:57you can ask me for one more look at the coloured order,
40:00but only once.
40:01The first person to restack their squares in the correct order wins.
40:05I'm looking at the obstacle.
40:08Oh, my God,
40:09I don't even get on that at the park with my kids.
40:12But I've always said,
40:14even if I'm not confident,
40:16I'm still going to get in there and give it all I got.
40:22All right, Kaihotu versus Kaihotu.
40:25Nyx, are you ready?
40:29She's not sure.
40:30Ben, are you ready?
40:31I think so, Bri.
40:32All right, turn around.
40:33Here we go.
40:38I'm thinking of trying to come up with some sort of rhyme
40:42to remember the order of those colours.
40:45Go!
40:51I've got a young daughter,
40:52so I've sung a lot of nursery rhymes.
40:55Nyx has more kids than I do, though.
40:58She could be better at this than I am.
41:00Nyx didn't think she'd be here this afternoon,
41:03but she's ready to give it a red-hot crack.
41:06Simon knew what he was doing, and I've seen it too.
41:09I think she's got a lot more skill than she's ready to admit,
41:14and I think she's actually got this.
41:17Ben, been in this arena a couple of times now with a lot of success.
41:23I always remember the things my kids shouldn't have done.
41:30So maybe my memory's not that bad.
41:33Can I have another look, please?
41:35You want it now?
41:36Yep.
41:50Ben, using his second look early in this challenge,
41:54will it pay off,
41:55or will it come back to bite him?
41:58Nyx, moving with pace now.
42:01So conflicted, because I'm like, who do I want to win?
42:07Yep, can I have a look?
42:12Nyx taking her second look, giving Ben the chance to catch up.
42:19I've only got, like, three left.
42:22Now it's just a race.
42:33Ben places his last square at the top.
42:37Can he get it done?
42:41Ben wins this captain's crew!
42:43Oh, nice.
42:44Nice, Ben.
42:48Ben, with the exception of Portia,
42:50is the strongest player in this game,
42:52and we see that over and over again in the arena.
42:56Congratulations, Ben.
42:57You have won this game-changing advantage.
42:59Come and grab it.
43:00Thanks, Ben.
43:04This is big.
43:06I think this is one I'm going to have to try and keep to myself.
43:11Very tough day today, guys.
43:14But let me remind you while you're here
43:16to fight for your charities.
43:19So, everyone, back to your kainga, rest up,
