(SOBS)
..after an explosive tribal council,
Jordie found himself all alone...
Last night, George ousted me as a traitor.
..and his last hope was to stay close with Liz and Shonee.
Whatever happens, us three I know can have fun.
Yeah, absolutely.
And when Shonee found an immunity idol...
Stunning.
..she kept it secret from the Spice Girls alliance.
I'm so happy.
At the immunity challenge...
Simon still has an idol. Thank you, George.
Yes, I do still have an idol.
Interesting.
..power duo Shonee and Liz...
Keep going.
..proved they were unbreakable.
It's OK.
Villains win immunity,
sending Heroes to tribal council.
At the Heroes camp, Gerry returned with a vengeance.
Are you, you know, strong?
If you bloody turn on me, I'll turn on you.
Yep, OK.
And when he outed the alliances...
..Ben realised it was him and Gerry on the chopping block.
At tribal council...
..Ben played his idol...
Playing this for yourself? I am.
..and threw Sharni under the bus.
The tribe has spoken.
16 are left.
Who will be going home tonight?
MAN: Hang on a minute.
Yes. Oh, this is a dream.
It's the auction. Oh, my God!
God, we are spending big today.
(ALL CHEER)
Yes! How good!
Villains, get your first look at the new Hero tribe.
Sharni voted out last tribal council.
Oh, really?
So, David, are you surprised to see Sharni gone?
I mean, there was a lot of chat during tribal.
I think she was surprised that it was her.
I think it's fair to say that.
But, yeah, that's all I'll say.
Full-on.
Alright, in case you hadn't already guessed,
welcome to the Survivor auction.
(ALL CHEER)
Let's get to it.
First item has a little something for everyone.
Ooh.
Wanna see what it is? ALL: Yes.
It is...
..time to drop your buffs.
(ALL EXCLAIM) We are switching things up.
God. What?!
This is what you've been waiting for. Take 'em off.
(EXCITED CHATTER)
I want it to be even. Even now.
Alright, this is how it's gonna work.
You're gonna come up one at a time, take a buff.
You're gonna open it up.
If you have a yellow buff, you're gonna go back to the Heroes bench,
if you have a purple buff, you're gonna go back to the Villains bench.
Alright, who wants to go first?
Go, Nina. Nina. Right out of the gate.
Stay true! I just wanna get it over with.
OK. Open it up.
What's it gonna be?
Villains. (ALL CHEER)
Come on, Ben. Come on up.
Cannot get away from the Heroes.
Go, Sammy!
(ALL LAUGH AND APPLAUD)
Alright, Gerry. (ALL CHEER)
You're back.
George.
SHONEE: I am 100% praying that myself, Liz and George,
the Spice Girls, do not get split up.
That will be a travesty.
Yellow buff. (ALL CHEER AND APPLAUD)
I'm going, I'm going. Go, Liz!
Here we go, Liz! This is it!
(SQUEALS)
MAN: Oh, back to the dark side. (ALL CHATTER)
Go, Shonee.
SHONEE: I'm in two minds about picking my new buff
because two of my closest allies are both on different tribes now.
I want a refund, Jonathan.
(ALL CHEER)
Yay!
Whoo! Hero tribe.
I'm feeling distressed and depressed.
I'm away from my BFF Liz.
Welcome, Shonee.
But luckily I have George on my side.
(ALL CHEER) Another one joins the dark side.
Alright, Shaun.
Oh, Shaun!
(ALL CHAT EXCITEDLY)
Alright, Simon.
Yeah!
BEN: Come back, Matty.
Back to where you belong, golden boy.
(ALL EXCLAIM)
Alright, Stevie. Tell me what you want.
Yellow. Think yellow.
Yeah!
(ALL EXCLAIM)
Yeah, it was always gonna be purple!
(ALL CHEER)
JORDIE: I'm still with Simon.
And I have immediately swapped into a minority.
My biggest worry was that if Simon got
anywhere near that big group of alpha boys,
he was gonna run straight over to them, and I can already see it.
The Survivor gods work in weird ways, don't they?
Hey!
(OTHERS APPLAUD)
JORDIE: We've got a lot of muscle in this tribe.
Being around that makes me very uneasy.
Alright, let's see who we've got on our new tribes.
For the Villains we have Nina, Jordie,
Liz, Hayley, David,
Sam, Shaun and Simon.
New meat tray. New meat tray. New meat tray!
The meat tray's extended.
And for the Heroes we have Gerry, Paige,
Flick, Shonee, Matt,
Ben, George...and Stevie.
(ALL CHEER)
George, are you worried about the meat tray?
No, I don't concern myself with meat trays
'cause historically they don't do very well at this game.
And if you think that's the only thing that matters
in the eighth season of Survivor...
..you truly don't understand the game.
Alright, shall we get this auction started?
ALL: Yeah!
This is how it's gonna work.
You are gonna bid as individuals just like a regular auction,
but each tribe will have a kitty of only $2,500 to spend.
Oh.
So every item you win will be paid for by your tribe.
How selfish or considerate you are
with your tribe's money is up to you.
There's a $500 maximum bid per item.
Like always, the auction can end without notice,
so if you see something you like...
..I suggest you bid on it.
About $320 each, guys.
Small bids.
Start the bids small. Wear them out.
Alright, first item.
Here we go! Here we go!
Cheeseburger with fries... MAN: Oh, my God!
..and an ice-cold beer.
(LAUGHS)
I got 40.
40 to Gerry.
200. Oh.
Just straight to 200? Yeah.
200 to Liz.
220. 240.
240 to Liz.
I do want the beer.
It's the beer for you?
You've got up to 320. Yeah, go 320.
260. 260 to Gerry.
Do I? Do I? Do I? 320.
320 to Liz.
It's alright. Wow. We got a real showdown.
It's all yours. Oh.
You've given up? Yep.
You're out? Alright.
320 to Liz, going once.
Going twice.
(ALL CHEER)
GEORGE: I'm so happy for you, Liz!
(GUFFAWS)
What an expensive cheeseburger and beer, though.
You wanna take a bite of that burger? Right now?
Yeah.
BEN: Oh, is it good? Is it good?
(ALL EXCLAIM)
Savour it, mate. Savour it.
(ALL CHATTER)
I'm gonna just smell it. Smell it.
Can I smell the beer?
Here we go, next item...
..will remain covered.
(ALL EXCLAIM)
Yeah, like a letter or something.
I reckon it could be.
320.
Ooh!
Ben jumped straight to 320.
Anyone else wanna get in on this?
I don't think we should let them have it.
360.
Oh.
Oh, good, they're burning their money.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
360 to Sam.
Going once.
Going twice.
Oh, I wonder what it is. Go, Sammy!
Is it good or bad? Let's see what you got.
Chocolate! (ALL EXCLAIM)
No way!
A huge block of milk chocolate.
Enjoy, Sammy. Thanks, brother.
(OTHERS LAUGH)
Alright, next item...
..is a scroll...
Oh.
..that you need to read here.
120. 120 to Stevie.
200. 200 to Flick.
400.
400 to Ben.
Wow. Anyone else wanna get in on that?
NINA: He's already on the chopping block.
Going once.
Going twice.
Sold.
OK.
OK, best speaking voice.
(LAUGHS) (OTHERS LAUGH)
(READS) "Congratulations.
"You have won a voucher.
"Please hand Jonathan this scroll to redeem
"one brown onion."
(ALL LAUGH AND GROAN)
Oh, my God!
Thank you, Jonathan. There you go.
$400.
That's so bad. Sorry, guys.
Nice try, Ben. No.
Oh, Ben.
You took a shot, Ben. I took a shot.
Don't cry over it. No, it's OK.
I'd eat it. I've eaten that.
Get it in ya. I'll eat an onion.
Sorry. Oh, God.
Alright, next item is an insanely massive
spag bol.
SAM: Oh! Spaghetti bolognaise!
Wait.
You're gonna need something to digest all those carbs.
Oh, and wine. And there's wine, isn't there?
(ALL EXCLAIM) Glass of red wine.
250. 300.
Go, Matty. Go, Matty. 300.
Wow, it's a scramble.
300 to Matt. 400.
500.
500 for Shaun. He maxes it out.
I'll trust ya. Mate, that is huge!
Oh, that is massive.
Next one is
the biggest beef tacos you have ever seen.
Guacamole, salsa, sour cream...
And...
..with a frozen margarita.
(ALL SCREAM)
300. 320.
340. 360.
Wow, ferocious. 400.
400 to Nina.
480. 480 to Flick.
Can we go to 500? Big discussions going on at Villains.
Nah, we're good. Alright, 480 to Flick.
(SQUEALS)
I trust you.
Oh, they're big tacos.
You've earned that. You've earned that.
Wow!
Yeah, scull it. Scull it. Scull it. Scull it.
Oh.
Brain freeze? Brain freeze.
Next item is...
..a video call home.
Oh, my God. OK, Jordie needs this.
Jordie needs this. Oh, my God, Jordie.
Matty. Matty... Matty's expecting a kid.
So am I.
Oh!
No. Up to you, Matt. It's up to you, Matty.
No, you go, fella. You go. You're alright. You go.
Go, mate. Just go. Jordie.
Go. Take it, bud.
If you want it, go for it. If you want it, just bid.
Is anyone bidding on this?
Uh...200.
200 to Matt.
Congratulations.
Jordie. Jordie. Jordie.
It's alright, just go for it, brother.
I'm not gonna muck around with someone's kid.
No, go for it, mate. No, but it's you as well.
Yeah, it's alright. Do it. Don't even think about it, do it.
Do it.
Matthew, this is really fascinating.
I've never seen two tribes
debate about who's gonna take the item.
I think you just know how much it means to them
and how much it means to you.
But you can have it if you want.
I know that the scan went all good, so I'm good.
My wife's fine.
How far along is she? 14 weeks.
And do you know that the baby's healthy.
I know that they're fine, yeah.
Do it. Do it, trust me.
Go for it. You have our blessing, man. Go.
Yeah, you do. Do it. Do it!
Are you sure, mate? Yeah, 100%.
Jordie, if you want it, it's gonna cost 220.
We got 220, mate. Gender reveal?
Alright, 220 to Jordie.
Come on up. (ALL CHEER)
Thank you so much, man.
Good on ya, Matty. You're a good bloke.
You're a real good bloke, Matt.
Oh, dude.
This is... I've never seen you this emotional.
Oh, man.
WOMAN: Hello? Babe?
Babe! Oh, my God!
Hi! I can't believe you won, you little legend.
Look, it's Dad!
Dad's on the phone.
Oh.
Oh, look at your face.
Are you alright?
I'm good. I'm good. I'm happy. And I'm healthy.
How's the baby?
Babe, everything has come back absolutely perfect.
It's healthy. (OTHERS CHEER)
It's growing...it's growing so well.
Everything's perfect.
Do you know what we're having? Yeah, I do.
What is it?
(LAUGHS)
We're having a baby boy.
(ALL CHEER WILDLY)
(ALL TALK AT ONCE) Congratulations.
Oh, that's so nice.
Look at his feet.
Oh, he's huge! He's huge!
(ALL EXCLAIM, APPLAUD)
That is amazing, honey.
Oi, look what else I've got for the baby. Ready?
Let's see. (LAUGHS)
He's got a little denim overalls.
Oh, yeah!
Babe, that is cute as.
I love you so much. How are you?
I'm OK. Are you good?
Yeah. Are you happy?
I'm OK. Yeah, I'm having fun, honey.
I'm having fun.
I don't want you to worry about me, OK?
Or feel guilty.
I can't stop thinking about you. I can't.
It's been really difficult.
(SNIFFLES) I know, babe.
I know.
I miss ya.
I miss you so much.
We think about you every single second of the day.
And our family... we're so lonely without you.
But we're really proud.
And I don't wanna hear from you until you go all the way, OK?
So don't worry about me. I love you so much.
I'm so proud of you.
Keep going, OK, baby?
Tell everyone to be nice to you, OK?
Sam says you have to be nice to me.
(ALL CHEER, LAUGH)
Love you, baby. Congratulations, baby.
I'll see you soon. Thank you.
Congratulations. Thank you, Jonathan.
Bye. Bye, Jonathan.
Look after my boy.
Dude, thank you so much, bro.
Alright. Thank you.
Congrats.
Thank you, bro. Are you alright? Yeah, yeah.
Are they happy tears or sad tears? Happy for you, mate.
Alright, next item will remain covered.
That looks heavy. It looks heavy.
$20. 20 to George.
80.
Oh, 100. 100.
120. Oh! 140.
120 to Paige. 140 to George.
240.
260.
300. 320. We're burning it.
320 to George.
Nup, you have it, mate.
Paige, you gonna let him have it? Yeah.
Alright. 320 to George.
Go, George, do it. Come on up.
There you go. Alright.
What did I win?
Let's find out.
Oh.
WOMAN: Oh, no. You get to read this one right here.
OK. Whoo, I'm shaking.
OK.
(READS) "Congratulations.
"This is an invitation to be the guest of honour
"at the Survivor surprise party."
Oh!
"You will leave the auction immediately
"for an afternoon of food, fun and surprises."
(ALL EXCLAIM)
"You can invite any two people to join you,
"be they Hero or Villain."
George! "Have fun."
George! Wow!
It's a social game, and you want to know us better.
I'm going to take...
..Shonee and Liz.
(SCATTERED APPLAUSE)
Are we going now? Yes, you are.
The Spice Girls! Whee!
GEORGE: It's absolutely devastating that the Spice Girls alliance
was broken up by the tribe swap.
This is worse than when Ginger Spice broke up the Spice Girls.
And now I'm caught in a minority on this new Heroes tribe.
Bye, everyone. Love you.
But at least I can have one last surprise party
with all three Spice Girls together.
Let's go, girls! Congratulations.
And then I will become the king of this new tribe.
Whoo-hoo! (LAUGHS)
That's dangerous, man.
So dangerous. George.
Yeah, I know.
Well, I hope everyone got what they wanted
because this auction is over.
(ALL CHEER)
WOMAN: Oh, my God. GEORGE: It's a feast.
Oh, my God, there's a cheese board! There's a cheese BOARD!
Oh, my God, party pies! Party pies. We love party pies!
And treats! (ALL CHEER)
The three Spice Girls are gonna have
the time of their lives at this feast.
We're gonna eat every single block of cheese, every bit of meat,
and munch on as much cabanossi as we possibly can.
(LAUGHS) OK, George, go.
Alright. What's in this box? "Guest of honour."
Whoo! It says, "Set For Life."
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
What have we won?
(READS) "Surprise. You've hit the jackpot.
"Your optimism at the auction has paid off.
"And congratulations, you've won $5,000 on Replay for 12 months,
"thanks to Set For Life!
"Now you can enjoy the surprise party and a life-changing prize!"
(ALL CHEER)
Oh, my God! I just won 60 grand!
George! Oh, my God!
Oh, my God. Wow.
This is gonna change my family's life.
Oh, Georgie. Oh, my God.
I can't wait to tell my mum.
Alright, let's feast.
Wow, is this Persian fetta? Oh, my God, stop.
It is Persian fetta.
(ALL LAUGH)
This literally looks like the same one
that I get at my favourite discount supermarket.
(LAUGHS)
This is great. We're gonna eat every single piece of this.
We need three idols as well. Is there?
We'll look...we'll look at the end.
Let's just eat. Yeah, let's just eat.
Let's just chew on the cabanossi.
Yes!
I'm grabbing sausage, dipping into Camembert.
There's blue cheese.
I'm drizzling maple syrup into my mouth.
I mean, I am in heaven right now.
(LAUGHS)
Wow. Take a seat, guys.
Oh. Oh! Ooh.
Please be an idol, Shonee.
Yes!
Yes! We've got a reward!
"Congratulations.
"You have found a hidden immunity idol.
"You may keep it secret or tell others that you have it."
Absolutely not. We're not telling anyone.
No, absolutely not.
SHONEE: I came in here with very limited accessories,
and now I've got two idols.
Things are definitely looking up.
I'm getting more glam as the days go on.
My first idol, not a soul knows about.
I'm so sneaky.
And this one, Liz and George know about it.
OK, so, what are we thinking about the new tribes?
Well, I almost started crying.
Flick was telling me at the auction not to trust Ben.
So that could be, like, a first option that's a consensus.
Thankfully, I'm with, like, strong people.
You are so good.
But if we do lose, I'm worried.
In the event that the Villains lose,
we have an idol that only three of us know about.
We must not tell a soul about...
I'm not telling anyone.
OK? This is the Spice Girls' secret idol.
Secret idol, cheers. Cheers.
SHONEE: If I get back to the Heroes tribe and I feel secure,
and Liz, on the other hand, doesn't, then I will give this idol to her.
I literally look like the Hungry Caterpillar right now.
Like, I'll need to go do a workout now
'cause I'll need to shred after this.
Well, you can do a workout with me. I'm the alpha on our tribe.
(ALL LAUGH)
I wanted to explain a few things to you.
Yeah. Yeah. What's the rules?
So, basically, everyone helps out around here.
No-one slacks off. Great. Yeah.
And I won't stand for anyone slacking either.
So, um... Awesome.
Our tribe is a bit of a flop.
We don't have our muscle men.
I just like to do things around. House improvement is my...
It's my forte. Yeah.
I can do that for you.
We have five OG Heroes and three Villains in the new Heroes tribe,
George, Shonee and Steve.
I'm so... feeling so great right now.
Oh, good.
Oh, we're stoked you're here.
Having Benji on our tribe is a bit concerning.
I'm so hungry.
Ben's definitely a snake.
He twisted my words at previous night's tribal.
George is not trustworthy also,
but I could work with George for the first couple of tribals,
get who we need to get out.
Scrub this pot...
And I'm going to do the rice.
Cool. Yeah.
Hey.
I just think if Benji... Yeah.
..if Benji and, um...
Put the knife down.
If Benji and George work together, we're (BLEEP).
Oh, I know.
We can send Ben down the river. We can throw him under the bus a bit.
Rice.
Yeah.
You eating tonight, Flickie?
I'm so full. I might just have the tiniest bit.
I want you guys to have a lot. Yeah.
What?
So, my target would be Benji.
I want him out of here. I don't trust him.
I'm used to dealing with snakes where I come from,
so getting rid of one won't be hard.
This is so nice, this beach.
I just can't put into words how excited I am.
Like, I'm more relieved.
Like... Yeah?
Yeah, I don't think we could be happier with the swap either.
What a power team, power tribe.
This has to be the most stacked and jacked tribe...
..in Australian Survivor history.
And I am so glad to be a part of it.
My old Villains tribe were getting absolutely pillaged
at every challenge.
I could only carry them through so much.
This is like a breath of fresh air. You have no idea.
So, now this new stacked super Villains tribe
are going to absolutely kill it.
Literally, man, to be here with you and Sam.
You are two of the people who, like, inspired me to play.
It's great to play with all these people.
I know. It's unreal.
It's been a crazy ride so far.
The reason that I was the target from the girls,
you know, I had my idol to be able to get through.
It was almost like, hey, it sucks. It's no good.
It's no good. Right?
And how are you feeling about this game coming back,
having a lot of big boys around and stuff?
Like, it's good coverage for you, right?
It's brilliant, mate.
Which is why I, like I said, from the start of the game,
I was like, my goal is to take big boys.
That's why I was excited about the swap,
not just because of how physically good our team is.
But you were there. Yeah.
I saw you guys come over.
I'm like, "This is only good for my game."
The Beast joins the Me train.
So, we have Shaun, Sam, David and myself.
And we are going to shred this game apart.
Do you do a sport? I did.
But body building has been my thing over the last few years.
25, 26, got into body building and stuff.
Yeah.
Yep. I'm still with Simon.
Fantastic. Yay. So good, buddy.
Seeing you guys in that first season was like, wow, I would...
Look, I grew up watching this. Oh, did you?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, so you loved it.
Yeah. Loved it. Loved it. Loved it.
Simon is crawling his way into that big group of alpha boys
little pocket, leaving me at the bottom of the tribe.
So I need to try my hardest to blend in with those boys
so that I don't stick out like a sore thumb.
I recognised your face straightaway.
I've watched you play for years. Oh, really?
Yeah, dude.
Because obviously...
..South Australian boy. Yeah. South Australian.
The thing about big muscly boys
is you need to sort of drop yourself to their level. OK?
Footy, footy, footy. That's the dream?
That's the dream.
Oh, how about the footy, eh?
And what are you doing now? Oh, I'm doing stock market stuff.
Yeah. Really?
Yeah. Are you a crypto guy?
You want a crypto guy?
This is how you bond with these boys, right?
And I'm putting in the work.
He's huge.
Has he cut the sleeves off his T-shirt?
I'm going to do that.
I probably won't look as good as he does.
I've grabbed one of my T-shirts and I've gone,
"Shaun, can you show me how you cut the sleeves off your shirt like that?
"You're so clever."
Yeah. I'm next. Mine next.
Yeah.
Liberating. How good does that feel?
That's it. Look, very similar.
Some of my best work.
How many coconuts are you eating a day?
Uh...a fair few.
Yeah. So, we'd like...
Hayley actually got really good at cracking them.
Did ya? Yeah.
I'm good... Coconut queen.
Tribe Swap is the scariest time in the game.
But we have five OG Heroes and three OG Villains,
so, we do have the numbers advantage here, which is really great.
Too true. You're right.
Cool.
Simon's clearly desperate to get in with us.
Tell everyone that you're shit.
Yeah.
But we can't let that happen.
I want to be OG Heroes strong
so I can be running the show with the people that I trust.
Come on in.
GEORGE: Oh, slow down, Gerry. Slow down.
Hello. Hi, friends.
Simon, when you look around at your new tribe, is it unbeatable?
I tell you what, in the history of strong tribes,
I reckon this has to be one of the strongest,
definitely a stacked tribe.
Nothing's set in stone in this game,
but we'll be coming in harder than ever.
Alright.
Are you ready to get to today's immunity challenge as new tribes?
ALL: Yes.
First things first. Need that.
Thank you so much. No worries.
Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.
For today's challenge...
..one member of your tribe is going to be locked inside a cage
that the rest of you will transport through a tunnel under a heavy gate.
Up a ramp,
down a slide.
Into a water trap.
Once you're down the other side, you'll free your tribemate.
And then two of you will attempt to solve a puzzle.
First tribe gets it right, wins immunity, safe from the vote.
Losers, tribal council
where somebody's going to become
the eighth person voted out of this game.
Give you a minute to strategise and we're going to get it on.
Yeah.
OK. Puzzle.
So, I'll do the puzzle with Steve.
Yep.
My chariot awaits.
Alright, here we go.
With Hayley in the cage for the Villains.
OK, it's coming down. It's coming down.
Shonee for the Heroes.
This is the most comfortable lie down I've had in weeks.
Yeah. Exactly.
And we have Nina and Steve waiting with the keys to unlock the cages.
Let's go, Villains!
For immunity. Survivors, ready?
Go!
You got to drag that cage all the way through the tunnel
one foot at a time.
Slow work. It requires clear communication.
ALL: One, two, three.
One, two, three.
Villains, right out of the gate have a nice rhythm.
One, two, three.
Wow. Villains have made quick work of this. They're almost through.
You can feel the adrenaline.
One, two, pull.
Heroes struggling already in this challenge.
Pull!
You're gonna need to pick this up if you want to stay in this.
One, two, pull.
One, two, three.
Villains are through first.
Now you're going to pick up that cage, stick it in the track.
One, two, three, lift.
Great communication, guys.
Villains are ripping through it.
One, two, three.
On?
Jump back.
It's Sam and Simon on the gate for the Villains.
Here we go. Ready? Same time. Let's go.
There we go.
They have it open, everyone else sliding the cage through.
Keep going, keep going.
One, two, pull.
Meanwhile...
One, two, pull.
..Heroes still struggling in the tunnel.
Double hands.
Finally, the Heroes have made it through the tunnel.
OK, now one-handed.
Get it in the track, Heroes.
Come on, let's pick this up.
Alright, guys. We've got this.
Villains are through.
Working together very well at this stage.
Moving on to the ramp.
Go straight up.
Now you've got to get that cage all the way to the top of the ramp.
One, two, three.
It's going to take everyone giving it everything.
One, two, three.
Hayley hanging on for dear life.
One, two, three.
Villains, almost at the top of the ramp.
All that extra meat clearly paying off here.
One, two, three. Villains...
(SHRIEKS)
..sending Hayley on her way.
That's how you do it.
You're good, Villains.
Everyone needs to be on the mat
before you can start unlocking the cage.
Go, go, go.
Nina unlocking Hayley.
Three... Push!
Heroes still struggling.
62-year-old Gerry and jillaroo Paige on the ropes.
Push, push.
Finally through the gate.
One, two, three, push.
Let's go. Let's go.
Heroes moving on to the ramp. Reposition.
Villains have a nice lead.
All good. All good. All good.
Can they keep it going on the puzzle?
It's Hayley and Nina on the puzzle for the Villains.
You've got time. You've got time.
Purples. Pinks.
Alright.
Don't stress. Take your time.
We're not on the rail. We're not on the rail.
Push.
Oh, rough ride for Shonee.
One, two, three.
Heroes desperately trying to catch up.
Yay! Almost there.
Yay!
One, two, three.
Finally, the Heroes at the top of the ramp.
The back. Lift the back.
Come on, keep going.
Wee! Down she goes.
Nice entry for Shonee.
You're good, Heroes.
And Stevie, unlocking the cage for the Heroes.
Unlocked.
Heroes got a lot of time to make up here.
Just go for the...
It's Stevie and George on the puzzle for the Heroes.
What do you reckon? Is that good? Do you think that's good?
Double edge. Yeah. Perfect. Cool.
Nina and Haley in a nice rhythm,
working methodically together.
Good work. Good work.
Hayley, a lot of purple goes on the left side of the table.
This one here, I know. Cover across the half.
Yeah. Yeah.
So this is kind of like...
Maybe we can find one where the tones change.
The villains try offering advice.
They had the muscle to get here, do they have the brains to close it out?
Great work, girls. Look at that.
Open them up.
Stevie, that's orange.
Stevie and George, they can really feel the pressure.
Keep communicating.
Stevie, look what I'm doing. Can you see what I'm doing?
Do not touch those. It's correct.
Alright. Alright. Alright.
It's like there. Done. Oh, OK.
We got it. Good.
Get in the zone. Breathe through it. You guys have got this.
This puzzle is deceptively difficult.
See if that one goes there. Does that go there?
All your blocks are the same size,
so it's only the pattern on the front that's going to help you today.
It's a fish. A fish coming in.
It's a fish.
Yes, Nina. Nina has something going now.
Well done.
You're doing well, girls.
Yes, Nina. That's good.
That whole left side is done. Left side is done.
Girls, smashing it.
Just right now, borders on the outside
just so we know they're borders.
You mean orange black ones.
I thought they were...
Stevie pulling out pieces that George previously thought he had right
If they look correct. Was that...?
No. No. It was correct. The black.
Now they're starting to bicker.
Heroes quickly falling apart.
Use the side of the table to lay them out.
Ben itching to get in on the action.
George. Do you want to swap?
You just go in there.
Ben subbing in for George, trying to make up for some lost time.
The Villains quickly coming together now.
Come on, girls. You're doing really amazing.
Just take a breath. Just breathing.
OK. Boom. Yes, yes. Yes.
Let's go!
Villains down to a half dozen blocks.
Let's go. Let's go, let's go.
Fronds. We need some yellow fronds.
Steve, jump out.
George back in now for the Heroes.
Will it be too little, too late?
Villains down to four pieces.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Getting close.
Moving pieces around.
OK.
Do they have it?
Yes!
Villains win immunity,
sending Heroes to tribal council.
(ALL CHEER)
Villains, nicely done.
(ALL CHEER)
Immunity is yours.
(ALL CHEER)
You are safe. Nobody going home.
Grab your gear. Head on out. Enjoy your night off.
Good luck. Enjoy. Good luck.
Alright, Heroes.
Tribal council tonight where one of you will become
the eighth person voted out of Heroes versus Villains.
Grab your gear. Head on out. I will see you tonight.
I'm in a bit of a predicament.
I was thinking Benji at the start.
But the boys want us to go for the big dog, George the King.
The more I think about it, maybe it's time to get rid of George.
Guys, guys. Let me be the first...
Hang on. Just wait till everyone's here.
Righto. Everyone in?
Righto. Now we can debrief.
OK. Thank you.
I am sorry I let you all down in that way.
No, Steve.
We didn't win, and it's not anyone's fault.
Oh, rightio.
So, we don't have much time. So we need to get on the fire.
We need to get food going. So, we need firewood.
I'm going to get the fire going.
We've got to get the rice ready. If you can do that.
Tonight's vote is crucial.
It's the first one since we've dropped our buffs
and it sets the complete tone
for the rest of the Heroes tribe moving forward.
Oh. There we go. Oh.
Stabbing a teammate, eh? Sorry.
Flick and Paige have already told us that they're unhappy with Ben.
So, Shonee and I should be safe on this new Heroes tribe.
Flick.
This place is so big.
We just don't even know where we're going.
OK.
I see a great future with you, me, Paige,
Matt, obviously. Yeah.
Hey, come on in.
Am I allowed?
You don't need permission. We're not...
Come one, come all. Yeah.
How are you guys feeling?
Well Paige said to me it was going to be Ben.
I'm happy for Ben to go. Same.
So, he's been enemy number one...
For a while. ..for a while.
Done. Alright. Alright.
Paige and the original Heroes turning on each other.
And this is really good news for me.
So my plan is simple.
I don't want Ben going home.
And I want one of the other original Heroes to be sent packing.
The real call is this.
Tonight is going to come down
to what you and I tactically think is better.
Think about what God would want.
What would God want?
Stevie, this is like a pathway,
so we try to just keep everything over there.
Steady up or you're gonna smudge it.
Yeah, my... Oh, trust me, I've been doing the fire the whole time, mate.
I don't think God likes Paige.
Let's just get rid of Paige.
At tonight's tribal council,
I think the cowgirl is going to ride her pony home.
Paige won't see her blindside coming.
The two Spice Girls here at new Heroes,
we need to pick up new recruits and we've got fantastic options.
What do you reckon, mate?
Five Spice. Stevie.
I think that's brilliant.
And Flick, is she OK with that?
Oh, my gosh.
I can do that.
What good are two Spice Girls when we could have four?
Old Spice. Gerry.
I like how you're just chilling here, Gerry.
Mate, that's what old people do.
Gerry got really, really burned
when he got sent from the Heroes to the Villains.
And Gerry has made it very, very clear
that he wants to work with me moving forward.
So he's with me as far as I'm concerned.
Mix it up a bit.
Have a bit of fun. That's what we're here for.
We are a majority on the new Heroes tribe.
There's only three votes on Ben.
And Ben's vote, completely irrelevant
whilst I will be putting four votes on Paige.
Paige likes hunting sheep and eating them on her farm.
But Paige is the one that'll be hunted by me
at tonight's tribal council.
I don't know.
I know. I'm the same. Are you feeling pretty good?
I feel good. I know it's not me. No. Good.
It would be a huge thing to take George out for the Heroes.
The boys on the other side are waiting for this move.
And now is the time to hit.
Does anyone want water?
So the boys, I was talking to the boys when we were hugging.
And they said that they want us to go for George.
Just get rid of the biggest player.
Go for George.
It's a huge play, but the boys are terrified
that we're going to trust George.
The biggest threat on Survivor is George.
So I want to blindside George at tribal
and get him gone.
We either stay Heroes strong, right, and vote for George,
or we go...
..and...
MATT: Fill some water up. Yeah, fill some water up.
Perfect, Benji. Just the person we wanted to hear.
Yeah.
I think we go for George tonight.
This is our only opportunity, I reckon.
If we go for George and we actually get him,
our old teammates will be so (BLEEP) proud of us.
Yeah. So I think you're right.
Yeah.
Get George out first, because the more he progresses in the game...
Yep.
I do know, out of anyone here,
just how dangerous it is to play a game with George.
Um, so...
Yeah.
Benji is...is a complex person
and I don't know if I can trust his word,
but I think moving forward,
we need to be able to be Heroes strong.
And we're just going to rely on Benji today.
The only extra step in all of this
is making sure that Gerry's on board
because Gerry is prevaricating. I'm worried about Gerry.
So if we can get Gerry on our side to vote for George,
then we have a majority, like a proper majority.
I can make a pitch to him about remaining Hero strong.
I think we've all got to check in with Gerry, too.
If we want this to work,
we can't just rely on one person checking in with Gerry.
It's gonna be all of us. Yep.
OK. OK.
But we really need to get food on.
Yep, OK. I'll do food.
BENJI: I don't really quite get why Paige is suddenly calling the shots,
but after last tribal council, I made some big moves,
so I have to present a public face that I am a good team player.
That I am the obedient little Asian guy around camp.
Here are beans.
It also actually makes logical sense,
because we in the old Heroes tribe have the majority.
So that's me, Flick, Matt, Paige,
and hopefully Gerry.
OK, so this is my plan, right?
So listen up.
Because it gains trust with the remaining Heroes.
It proves... They're all suss on you and me.
They're suss on you because you've gone to Villains.
They're suss on me as per last tribal council.
I'm going to have a very strong think about it,
but I can't promise anything.
Alright? OK.
So you can understand where I'm at.
I understand because we're in a similar head and heart space.
But it's got to be head tonight.
Why would I be telling you this otherwise?
We're in a very similar position. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You and I, bottom as shit.
Alright.
As I said, I'm just going to have a big think about this.
Yeah.
I'm not sure where Gerry stands right now, and that worries me.
So we've got to have some conversations fast.
On George. What do you think?
I haven't made my mind up yet... Yep.
..what I'm doing.
So I just got to decipher all the information and go from there.
Hey, Gerry, can I speak to you for a second?
Yeah, mate.
I'm thinking longer term and longer game,
and I see massive potential
in us all working together to take out George.
Yeah, yeah. Alright.
And how do you feel about that? I'm getting closer now.
I just want you to know that, you know, if we can make it there,
we can be strong.
Let's do it. Let's do it. Yeah. OK.
I'm keen. Alright, good. Yeah, OK.
Good chat, good chat.
We really need you to be Hero strong.
Mm. Are you with us tonight?
Because you're not on the chopping block at all,
because we need to be Hero strong.
I know, like, because you've been over there and you know them...
We really appreciate that, Gerry. Honestly.
Yeah, feeling pretty confident coming in tonight
that Gerry is Hero strong
and he's going to be voting George tonight.
We need to stick together as a team.
So you're sticking with us?
Really appreciate that. Thanks, Gerry.
Thanks, mate. I honestly appreciate that.
So I'm really looking forward to taking out the king of Survivor.
Being on that blind side, it's gonna be excellent.
MATT: What did you say to Gerry?
Oh, he's on our side. He's voting for the other side tonight.
Oh! SHONEE: Oh, what an afternoon.
GEORGE: Yeah, we put beans on.
Yum.
You got it under control, Gerry?
Yeah.
With the new tribe,
I'm not quite sure about the trust just yet.
I'm still not quite sure where I am,
what I want to do.
We are all on the same page. Yeah.
Paige's page. (CHUCKLES) Yeah.
I've just got to let things pan out
before I actually make a decision, the right decision for me.
Then I know who to align with and who to target.
SHONEE: There is a lot of nervous energy in this joint.
And everyone's just so on edge.
So I'm a little bit suspicious.
Going into tonight's vote, I'm not even sure if I can trust Gerry.
OK.
I don't really want to play an idol,
but as a last resort, I might have to.
Happy tribe.
MATT: Alright, let's get outta here.
It's our first vote together.
And when a camp is this on edge,
it means the tribal council
is never going to be as straightforward as everyone thinks.
Back again.
Regular attendees, us former Villains.
(CHUCKLES)
So, Paige, have the new Heroes lived up to the ideals of the Heroes tribe?
Well, I think it's not even been 24 hours yet,
so I can't really say so just yet.
But I think they're fitting in pretty well.
So, George, this might be a new tribe,
but do you think there are divisions still along old tribal lines?
Um, I think tonight is a line-in-the-sand moment
because the dynamic of the tribe
will be very different moving forward.
And the best route forward
is with the people that you have life goals in common with
or life opinions in common with.
I don't go on goals because everyone here is for the same thing.
But, personally, I don't think everyone is everyone's person.
Is that factoring in to your vote tonight?
Um, yeah, probably most likely.
Flick, the old Heroes certainly presented a united front.
Do you think that's going to be the case again tonight?
Um... (EXHALES)
Tribe swap is always the scariest part of the game.
I feel like it's where you don't have control at all
and you just get dealt the cards and you have to deal with it.
Well, Shonee, if that is the case,
it's three old Villains
versus five old Heroes.
What can you do to shift the power back in your favour?
I guess all you can do is have conversations
and hopefully your plans align
and you can make something work.
And tonight is about showing people
that you do want to work with them long term.
Well, Gerry, you're kind of in a unique position
because you've played on both sides.
Do you feel like your loyalties are split?
Um, my loyalties are still there.
I don't know whether any other people's
loyalties toward me are still there.
But, um, that I'm not privy to.
The old Heroes did vote you out last time.
Yes.
So where are you at with your trust level with them?
Trust is a really funny word.
Trust takes a long time to build,
and, Jonathan, it can take seconds to be destroyed.
So, George, do you see Gerry as one of your own?
Um...I'd like to hope so.
I'd like to hope so.
When you're working together, you're unbreakable.
That's what makes alliances strong in the game of Survivor.
So I think tonight I know who I'm working with.
I think a good person's going home. Mm.
But the proof will be in the pudding tonight.
What about you, Shonee?
Do you share the same confidence?
Um, I wish I did. (LAUGHTER)
Why do you think George is so confident?
George is always confident.
So, Matt, is it a concern that a couple of the old tribe mates
may not be on the same page?
Um...
I mean, the little whispers going around at the moment
is the...the main confusing factor.
Paige, how much confidence do you have
in the conversations you had this afternoon?
Yeah, confident in the conversations I've had this afternoon.
I'm putting my trust where I need to put my trust.
But there are whispers going on.
So things must be changing.
Nothing's changed.
We're still going with what we want,
and we're just backing that up, basically.
George, what would you like to see happen with tonight's vote?
I'd like to see a group of people move forward in unison.
The right tactical decision will win you $500,000
and the crown that we all would love.
Tonight's decision will move that group of people
just one step closer.
Alright, well, I think it is time to find out
if you guys are gonna get closer to that vision.
It is time to vote.
Ben, you're up.
If it goes our way, the king is dead.
Long live the king.
Time to go home, Paige.
I'll go count the votes.
If anyone has a hidden immunity idol and they'd like to play it,
now would be the time to do so.
Me, please.
OK, I'm there.
Quite nervous tonight.
So...
I'm gonna play this for...
..George.
Thank you, Shonee.
Hopefully I'm right.
This is, in fact, a hidden immunity idol.
And any votes cast for George will not count.
I'll read the votes.
First vote...
..George.
Does not count.
George. Does not count.
George.
Does not count.
George.
Does not count.
Paige.
One vote Paige.
Paige.
Two votes Paige.
Eighth person voted out of Heroes versus Villains,
Paige.
That's three votes, that's enough.
Need to bring me your torch.
Stronger united, never divided.
That was very well played.
The vibe was off. Too much whispering, guys.
Not my first rodeo.
Paige, the tribe has spoken.
Time for you to go. Thank you.
Well, in this game, if you don't know where the numbers lie,
might be time to ride off into the sunset.
Grab your torches, head back to camp.
Goodnight.
Another wonderful evening.
Sunday night on Australian Survivor...
Hit it! Hit it!
..who will be next on the chopping block?
If there is a way that I can earn your trust...
..as King George and Queen Shonee
revel in their newfound power.
I could act as a double agent.
This is like the conga line of people on the bottom of the tribe
saying, "Save me, sire. Save me."
But with the OG Villains outnumbered...
This is so hectic.
It's like them and us.
..could a proposition...
We will take you through to merge.
..be the end of the Spice Girls alliance?
This was about destiny.
You either die a Villain,
or you live long enough to see yourself become the hero.
Oh, I actually don't know what happened.
Shonee playing her idol for George was a huge shocker.
Wasn't expecting it.
We kind of thought we had it in the bag.
It was going to be a big move.
Yeah, obviously, we (BLEEP) up.
Paigey, little bit too little...
..a little bit too late, mate.
So I really hope Flick gets the word out.
Don't trust George.
I really hope they take him down.
