JONATHAN LAPAGLIA: Previously on Australian Survivor...
Drop your buffs.
(ALL CHEER) We are merged!
..the day they've been working towards finally arrived...
The whole game changes now,
with exactly seven Rebels and seven Titans.
(MIMICS TURNING UP INTENSITY ON MACHINE)
It's overdrive.
..with the biggest reward of the season up for grabs...
60,000 bucks and a free pass at Tribal.
..Valeria was not going to let it slip away.
That was the fastest 60 grand I made in my entire life.
Taking charge of merge,
Caroline and Kitty thought they had reunited the OG Titans.
In this merged tribe right now we form a majority with Ri and Alex.
Instead, Mark and Valeria were out for revenge.
We need to get Kitty out of the game.
You, Winna... MARK: Yeah.
..Kirby, Scottie, Aileen. Raymond and Feras.
There shouldn't be anything
that can prevent us from tonight's game plan.
And when Scott had a crisis of conscience...
I feel like you should be worried tonight.
Oh. I've heard your name.
But from who, though? It's Mark.
Val and him are definitely leading it.
..they realised they had been betrayed
and Kitty's claws came out.
There's a big chance that I could go home tonight.
But I know who put my name out there.
And I'm gonna be gunning for you hard.
Until an emotional decision...
I might not mentally be in the game right now.
OK, so you want to leave the game?
Yes.
..brought an early end to Tribal Council.
Love you!
Tonight, Scott, you have spoken.
What an awfully big adventure.
13 are left,
who will be going home tonight?
(SOBBING)
CAROLINE: Tonight, Kitty and I,
we were absolutely shafted by Mark and Val,
and now we're screwed.
Come have a chat.
So, after tonight's Tribal Council, I think you'd be inhuman
if you didn't take it a little bit personally.
Yeah. Of course. Yeah. Of course. Come sleep with me. It's alright.
Don't worry.
I'm just like, "Mark, you arsehole."
The thing is, yeah, I just...
Same. Same.
Yeah. Because there's, like, no space.
Yeah, yeah. Alright. Come on.
After merge,
I honestly thought that we'd come in OG tight and strong,
and look at us.
There's no way we can be OG tight and strong.
Mark and Val...
Never felt more like I was sleeping beside the enemy.
Yeah. Yeah.
You know that? Yeah.
So lucky.
So, at last night's Tribal Council,
when I thought that my head was on the chopping board,
I thought, "Oh, you know what? Bugger it.
"If I'm going to go out, I may as well go out with a bang."
But I think that sort of put a bit of fuel on the fire.
I was super stressed-out.
It was the wrong thing to do.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Val and Mark,
they are absolutely gunning for us hard now.
But I am determined to get my head off the chopping block.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know who's having,
who's leading, what conversations... Conversations, yeah.
Because at the moment, I'm not leading any. Yeah.
I feel like I'm starting to get things in order, and I just...
And until I can get it in order in my mind,
then I can kind of stand...
And now we're on different alliances. Yeah.
Well, let's just park this for now.
Yeah. Makes sense.
Kitty does these long, deep looks into your eyes,
and you kind of sit back.
I'm a reserved person, and I like my personal space,
but she likes to communicate from about here.
Anyway, whatever happens, happens.
Yeah.
She's coming, guns blazing,
trying to take herself out of the firing line.
But I don't think it's working. (CHUCKLES)
Jay, I want to, like, I want to see us through to the end.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is really important to me.
I'm not being weird.
I think Kitty's, um,
she's feeling the paranoia right now,
and it's really, really getting to her.
Yeah. I think she is in trouble.
Yeah, OK. I think so.
Yeah. Yeah, I think that's what she's saying her gut feel is.
I just... I just don't want to go home. OK.
And I'm sure you don't want to go home either. No.
Yeah. Jaden, I actually wanted to catch you.
Yeah.
Yeah. No, no. Me neither.
Yeah, yeah.
I am not a paranoid person, but my paranoia is like 200% now.
It's true.
Caroline and Kitty are on the move. They are everywhere.
Yeah. Have you seen them talk to everyone?
We can be better together if we work together.
I think that everyone is noticing it.
The more Caroline and Kitty are scrambling,
I think it makes them look nervous, weak, and potentially untrustworthy
in this critical moment in the post-merge game.
This is great for me!
They're in damage control, because all Kitty said last night,
she was like, "I've got to go on the attack."
Hmm. "I've got to go on the attack now."
I think that they're putting a massive target on their back.
Last night at Tribal Council, we didn't vote anyone off.
However, the situation that I'm in right now is pretty good
because I know the people that I can trust.
Yeah. KIRBY: Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
So, yeah.
We've got Kirby, and therefore Rihanna.
So I'm hoping that those two join us four -
me, Winna, Jaden and Valeria,
which makes us six.
That's quite a formidable crew.
OK, OK. 5-6-7-8.
And the walk, and walk,
and walk.
Yes!
Yeah!
Ooh!
There's a bit of a swagger there.
I'd better run if I want to do that hot date but!
Even though there wasn't a merge vote,
there are some really clear battle lines
that are being established right now.
That's bold, Winna!
(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)
I'm uncoordinated. What are you doing with your legs?
WINNA: Don't you reckon? Yeah. There you go!
Mark is doing the crab dance!
Scott's departure definitely did not change my plan at all.
We want to take Kitty out.
Come on in.
JADEN: Where's the challenge?
MARK: More torture.
So, Valeria,
we're over halfway through the game.
What's the mood like at camp these days?
Since post-merge, we didn't have a proper Tribal Council.
Everyone just got way too paranoid.
So it's a little bit of a mess in the camp.
So, Feras, is Valeria, right?
Yeah. I think, uh, Valeria is right on the money.
Usually the first Tribal Council sets the pace,
and it shows where the numbers lie.
And that first Tribal Council is quite difficult for us to see
who we can and can't trust.
So, Kitty, if your name ended up in the mix last Tribal,
is today's immunity challenge a must-win for you?
I guess so. (CHUCKLES)
I, uh, obviously feel a bit nervous.
So, yeah, I'm going to give it my best shot today.
Alright. Are you ready to get to today's immunity challenge?
ALL: Yes. Winna, give it up.
Thank you very much. Thank you.
Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.
For today's challenge..
..you're gonna hold onto a rope attempting to perch on a small knot.
At regular intervals, you move further up the rope,
making it more difficult.
If at any point you fall off, you're out of the challenge.
Last person standing wins immunity and is safe from the vote.
Losers - Tribal Council, where somebody is going to become
the 12th person voted out.
Let's draw for spots and let's get to it.
Winging!
Wee!
Alright, everyone's in position.
For immunity, this challenge is now on.
Not only is that knot small, but the rope...
..is pretty thin.
It's hard to get a grip on it.
It's gonna start to hurt your hands.
Yeah.
This is hard as!
This is really hard. (THEY LAUGH)
Oh, yeah.
This is what you signed up for.
This is why you came out to play Survivor.
Now we're having fun.
Fun?
This is not comfortable.
You're on the biggest knot right now,
so if you're struggling at this stage,
you could be in trouble.
KITTY: Ri's solid, aren't you?
Wee!
Having fun, Alex?
Oh, mate, I'm just hanging!
Ha-ha! Just hanging.
Waiting for everyone else to drop.
It's so hard.
KADEN: Give up, Kirbs, so I can give up.
You want to? Yeah.
If you go, I'll go. If you give up, I will straightaway.
Ready? Go!
One, two, three. Go!
Did you give up? No, did you?
No! (THEY LAUGH)
This hurts, man! It hurts hard!
Oh, crap.
Seven minutes in,
and Mark is out.
There you go, Kirbs.
Oh. Did you give up, Mark? Yeah.
Thank you! (LAUGHS)
Jaden and Kirby right after him.
Dropping like flies.
Now we're down to ten.
Hmm...
Whoa! Oh!
Big slip from Alex.
Nice save. Phew!
Alright, you've been at it for ten minutes.
Now we're going to make it a little more difficult.
Feras, out of the challenge.
This is a live transition.
I'm going to count you in on ten
and you're going to move up to the next knot.
Here we go.
Ten...
EDEN: Great work, Ray. Nice job, Aileen.
..nine...
..eight...
..seven...
..six...
..five...
..four...
Eden and Valeria struggling with that rope.
..three... Yes!
..two...
(BLEEP) No.
..and one.
Valeria unable to make the transition, she is out.
Now we're down to eight.
Eden,
Winna,
Caroline,
Alex,
Raymond,
Aileen,
Kitty,
and Rianna.
You still haven't voted as a new tribe yet.
You don't really know where everyone stands in this game.
The only way to make sure you don't end up in the pot tonight
is to walk out of here with that necklace.
(THUNDER RUMBLES)
And after 15 minutes,
here comes the rain.
Gonna make the rope wet.
Make it more difficult to get a grip on the knot.
CAROLINE: I'm slipping.
If your feet slip, it's going to make it hard
to get a grip on it so you can hang on.
Ouch!
I'm gone.
Done. FERAS: Great work, Ray.
Raymond drops.
He is out of the challenge.
Caroline drops out.
Winna's out.
Now we're down to five.
Eden,
Alex,
Kitty,
Aileen,
and Rianna.
KIRBY: Good job, Ri!
Still battling it out for the necklace.
Guaranteed safety at tonight's Tribal.
CAROLINE: Good job, Kit.
KITTY: (QUIETLY) Argh!
MARK: Oop.
Oop!
Argh! (BLEEP)
Out of nowhere, Kitty drops. She's out.
Oh, well.
Alright, you've been up there for 20 minutes.
We're going to go to the top knot. (BLEEP)
Oh, my God.
Remember, this is a live transition and I'm going to count you in.
I've got 10 seconds. I'm gonna go for it at the end.
Ten...
..nine...
Is Ri up already?
CAROLINE: Ri's up and Aileen's up.
..eight... (SIGHS)
I was hoping that they wouldn't get up. Ha-ha!
..seven...
Get up, get up! Alex, you're gonna struggle. Get up.
..six...
Perfect. Great transition.
..five...
..four...
Oh!
Eden can't make the transition.
He's out.
I don't think I'm gonna beat these guys! (CHUCKLES)
..three... Give it a shot. Give it a shot!
..two...
..one.
Ah! Alex.
Ooh! Painful dismount.
He's out.
And we have a showdown between Aileen and Rianna.
Another showdown between those two.
Who's it gonna be?
MAN: Great work, Aileen.
Aileen won a challenge for her tribe.
She'd love to win one for herself.
I hate this so much.
Rianna.
Looks like you could do that all day.
This is my jam.
Good job, Aileen!
I'm struggling.
Aileen's trying desperately to find something comfortable.
I got this all day, girl.
(CHUCKLES)
If you want to let go, you can.
FERAS: Yeah, yeah.
(PANTS)
You can see the pain on her face now.
I'm gonna go.
That's it. Aileen is out
and Rianna wins individual immunity.
(CLAPPING)
Ri-Ri, well done, mate.
WOMAN: Good job, Ri.
Thanks, guys.
Rianna, congrats.
Your first Individual Immunity win. (OTHERS CLAP)
Does it feel good?
So good. Thank you, guys.
Congratulations. You cannot be voted for tonight.
As for the rest of you, Tribal Council tonight,
where one of you will become the 12th person voted out.
Won't be you. Well done.
You can all head back to camp. I'll see you tonight.
Thank you.
VALERIA: I am super happy Kitty didn't win the challenge.
This is a perfect opportunity.
I mean, this is our time to take her down.
Kitty, see you later.
I'm feeling so good.
Having this necklace and an Immunity Idol...
Good work.
..I feel like it's a weight off my shoulders.
Where does, like, um...
Anyone sit? Yeah.
Mark's posse and their posse...
Oh, they're just gunning for each other.
It's great. You just watch it unfold.
I think we have options.
I think there are so many options.
That's all I'm thinking about.
Yeah, I'm happy with that.
I know I trust you, so wherever you go, either way,
you will always land with me.
Alright. So you think about it.
RIANNA: After merge,
the dynamics between everyone changes so dramatically.
So that's hard to navigate.
I've got close to Caroline and Kitty,
and now we're at merge I'm over with Kirby
who's my ride or die girl.
Like, we're in it together.
And she's built these other relationships with Val and Mark.
So I'm kind of at this dilemma about which side I'm meant
to be going towards.
VALERIA: For tonight's vote, I feel like it's pretty easy.
We all would like to stick to the same plan to take Kitty out.
So I'm definitely working towards the numbers that we need.
I'm going to be chatting with Feras.
Yeah.
Yeah. With Alex, Alex is super...
So many times someone has told him a plan,
and then he goes and stuffs it up.
So I reckon...
You need to be really careful with him, but..
I know, I know, I know.
I still want to speak to him. I want to risk it.
Of course. Yeah.
I think so, I'm going to check it.
Yes, she will be. Yeah.
I'm pretty sure.
CAROLINE: Tonight's Tribal is critical.
I know Mark is gunning for Kitty.
Yeah.
So we have so much work to do.
MARK: (LAUGHS) Yeah.
Where's your head at?
Well, what numbers have you gathered?
Yeah, of course. OK. That's it.
Done deal? Done deal.
Look, our plan is to get Mark out, but we don't have the numbers.
We're literally scrambling.
Wait, what?
Yes.
I can guarantee, I've had a relationship with you guys
that is much closer than I am with Val, or...
I know, but they...but they want a vote with Kirby.
Do you know what? If they...they think that, great.
OK.
I know.
I think Mark's just gonna keep coming for me until I'm dead.
If we're doing Mark, I'll vote Mark.
Um, and that's where I'm standing, 100%, I'm voting with you guys.
OK. I'm backing it, so..
100%, are you doing...? Everyone's voting Mark?
Well, I don't know, are they?
I don't know, I think so. Yeah.
OK. OK.
Alright. Come on.
I didn't hear your name.
Yes, you did.
I swear I didn't hear your name.
But at the end of the day, if I go home tonight,
I'm going home.
VALERIA: Kitty is definitely in the desperation mode right now,
and I must admit this is pretty entertaining.
And it also gives me a very good idea.
I reckon because we keep using Kitty's name all the time.
Even she's already paranoid, which is great.
Yeah. Um, stressing out.
Yeah.
I reckon because we keep using Kitty's name all the time,
let her stress out
and let's put it on Caroline.
MARK: Yeah.
That was a bit of a Godfather-like move, I think.
(LAUGHS)
Valeria wants to flip the vote away from Kitty and put it onto Caroline.
I'm definitely happy with this
because we've lost the element of surprise from last time,
so now it's much more of a head-on, front-on collision.
Yeah.
When we saw her, it was just Aileen and I talking,
and she came in and she's like,
"You guys aren't saying my name, are you?" Literally.
We were just like, "No, no, we're not. We're just talking."
Yeah, yeah.
So, you guys happy with that? Yeah. I'm fine with that.
OK. Awesome.
I am creating a strong foundation to vote off Caroline.
And for me, it's easy.
Everyone wants to take her out.
Do you..? Well, I mean, like, we're sort of coming for them,
and we're here as well.
I think they're probably going to come for me.
So, um, yeah.
We'd love to have you on our side. Yeah.
Caroline.
Yeah. Yeah, sweet, awesome.
Even though we're all a bit unsure about Alex,
I still think that he's willing to work with me
because he's dying to have a home
and vote with someone to be in a majority.
Two days ago, like, I was trying to do this, but then Scott happened.
This is the plan part two, so...
The only name that I want tonight would be Caroline.
Caroline?
We came for Kitty last time. Right.
And then this changes...
She's getting paranoid that she's trying to do her job.
I like the plan. I really do.
It should be pretty easy.
Are you cool with that? 100%. Yeah.
How are you doing?
Yeah.
You OK, my friend? Yeah.
I think Mark is trying to get into everyone's ear right now.
I almost feel like he feels a bit smug.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Aside from Kitty and Eden, everyone else...
..I don't think they're with us.
Which means we're screwed.
So we're going to have to do something pretty crazy
just to survive.
(GRUNTS) Nice!
That's right. That's right.
Oh, it's a goodie.
Yeah.
But for now, I mean, for now. For now, yeah.
So we'll talk to Feras.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, OK.
Sounds good.
Feras, Aileen and Ray,
we're not quite sure where they stand right now.
Do I trust them?
No! Absolutely not.
But they come as a strong trio.
Oh, it's so, like...
Tell me.
So...
I'm just going to tell you the truth because I'm beyond the truth.
Yeah. I just want to move forward.
Yep. So...
Yep.
I love that. I didn't think you'd want to get rid of Winna.
Kitty and Caroline are selling me this idea
of possibly working with them.
My first initial thought is, "Hell no,"
because we've never worked together.
But when people are desperate,
you can always twist it to your advantage.
Winna is like that with Mark and he's loved by all.
He is.
I can definitely see him winning this whole thing.
Yes.
Yep.
Done. Done.
The plan to vote Winna out,
I'm completely on board with that.
I really feel like a mafia boss right now, I really do.
It was no secret.
If you'd told me yesterday morning that I'd be in an alliance
with those guys, I would have laughed at you.
But, thank you, Samoan rain gods.
And so we definitely...we definitely
don't want to bring in Ri and Alex?
I don't think so. Don't need to?
I think it'll complicate things. I don't trust Ri.
OK. OK.
OK.
And to vote for Mark. OK, cool.
She is not OK. OK.
This all seems good. Yeah.
Our paths are aligning.
We only need six people to vote Winna out.
So there's a few fake plans going on tonight.
Ri is voting Mark, and Alex is voting Val.
What I've been told on my side is Val.
Because, honestly, I think, I think Val is a huge threat.
Huge... Huge threat.
As long as both Rianna and Alex don't vote with Mark...
..we've got the numbers to snuff Winna's torch.
Do you trust Caroline and Kitty?
So, um...
I actually do trust Kitty,
but them together, hard to trust...
Because you don't know where you sit.
No. So this is what I'm thinking.
We go with Valeria and those lot to vote off Caroline.
Yep.
Not Kitty, because Kitty's going to see it.
And better the devil we know.
Kitty and Caroline, these girls crossed my girl
and got Viola out of the game way too soon.
And I'll be playing my revenge on these people.
Caroline, I'm gonna be your karma.
Tonight we are definitely putting our trust in Feras.
I know that he wants Winna out.
It definitely cuts Mark down,
and that is also good for me.
But if one person decides to vote elsewhere,
this plan could be completely derailed.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)
Good evening, JLP.
Evening.
So, Mark, last Tribal,
you pick a target, you pull together all the votes,
and then Scott puts his hand up and says, "I want to go home."
Yeah.
What's the feeling when you put all that work into a plan
and you don't get to put it into action?
Yeah. Look, Jonathan, uh, it was mixed feelings, actually.
I definitely felt for Scotty.
And I think it was important for him to go home.
Uh, but, you know, time is a funny thing in Survivor.
Things change in 24 hours.
It's not like we're just sort of go back in time
and just have that same Tribal Council all over again
without Scotty.
The game continues to evolve.
We've just got to keep playing.
Feras, do you think people have reconsidered which side of the line
they want to sit on since last Tribal?
FERAS: Yeah, of course.
It'd be crazy to think that everyone
is still on the same page as yesterday.
I think buying that extra day
really helps solidify
where everyone wants to be.
So, Eden, do you think tonight's vote is a defining moment?
Will a line be drawn in the sand for this tribe?
I think the merge vote,
which is, well, technically it's tonight
because we didn't have one at our last Tribal.
It really does define where everyone is in the game,
because you don't know who you're with until you see the vote,
and that's the only way
that you can fully trust or know
that there is any sort of loyalty there.
So this will be huge to understand where everyone sits in the tribe.
But it was literally like Survivor speed dating.
(CHUCKLING) It was..
Everyone went off and had their individual chats
and then it was...ding! and everyone swapped.
Ding! Everyone swapped.
It was like this revolving door.
Aileen, was it really like that this afternoon?
I've never used a dating app, but tonight certainly felt like it.
And it was a bit...
So, Caroline, do you feel like you have new dates this afternoon,
or are you just going to rely on the old faithfuls?
Uh, no. I definitely feel like I had a lot of new dates today.
I think I've got a few matches, actually.
(CHUCKLING)
Do you think everyone here knows what's going on?
I know everyone here doesn't know what's going on.
So, Jaden, that means that someone could get catfished tonight.
Yeah, I reckon, eh.
It's gonna be a mad one. Can't wait to see it.
AILEEN: I can't wait to see who gets catfished.
Caroline, how much of tonight's vote is about trust for you?
I think tonight's vote is hugely about trust.
And I know that the conversations
that I've had over today and yesterday
are going to be cemented tonight.
Um, yeah, really looking forward to that.
Jaden, do you think trust will be broken tonight?
Yeah, I reckon.
As simple as that.
(LAUGHTER)
So where are you, Kitty, on the scale of forgive and forget?
Well, look, my head was on the chopping block last night,
so I think it would be silly if I was not worried.
And I obviously shot off a bit last night,
which probably added a bit of fuel to the fire.
But I came out fighting,
and I guess we'll see where the cards lie at the end of the night.
Yeah.
Caroline, do you think Kitty should be worried tonight?
I think...I think we should all be worried.
You know, I think tonight we're going to see where alliances
are really drawn in the sand.
I think we'll find out a lot.
So I feel scared.
I know Kitty feels scared.
Um, yeah, I think there are a few people
that should be worried here tonight.
There's no point stressing, you know.
You've got to let go of things you can't control.
And we're here now, and I think
you should always be confident
regardless of what happens, you know.
Today, that was just chaos.
But what I realised is when there's chaos, there's actually clarity.
Oh! Yes.
So I think after those votes are shown,
we'll all have some clarity with where all of us stand.
That's what I think.
Valerie, do you think it's difficult to trust someone again
once they break it?
Oh, absolutely.
I will never trust someone who broke my trust before.
My Vote is pretty easy, straightforward and logical,
and I actually think this person is the weakest link in our tribe.
And I know in Survivor,
sometimes you want to stick to the weaker players
because it gets you further in the game,
but I believe that person...
..doesn't deserve to play this game.
And on that I think we should vote.
I think we should vote.
Caroline, you're up.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)
(WHISPERS) Sorry, Winna.
I love you, but you keep coming for me,
so I have to write your name down.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
(WHISPERS) Caroline, you voted out my girl Viola,
so I think you should go home.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
I'll go count the votes.
If anyone has a hidden Immunity Idol and they'd like to play it,
now'd be the time to do so.
Alright, I'll read the votes.
First vote - Winna.
Winna.
Winna. That's three votes Winna.
Winna.
That's five votes Winna.
Caroline.
That's five votes Winna,
one vote Caroline.
Caroline.
We're tied.
Five votes Winna. Five votes Caroline.
Mark.
Five votes Winna. Five votes Caroline.
One vote Mark.
Valeria.
Five votes Winna.
Five votes Caroline.
One vote Mark, one vote Valeria.
One vote left.
(HEARTBEAT PULSES)
12th person voted out of Titans v Rebels...
..Winna.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Need to bring me your torch.
(KIRBY EXHALES SHARPLY)
Winna, the tribe has spoken.
Thank you.
Well, it seems that some of you found a perfect match tonight.
The question is, what will become of the broken hearted?
(CHUCKLING)
Grab your torches, head back to camp.
Goodnight.
Tomorrow night on Australian Survivor...
..Caroline is back with a vengeance.
They say that Val fights wolves in Russia.
But wolves are just puppy dogs compared to me.
Can she take down Valeria?
I know she's up to. It's not cute.
This girl. Really?
You should be scared now.
You proclaimed a state of war with me last night.
Or will the game's most unsuspecting player...
JADEN: This tribe is underestimating me 150 million per cent.
..make a move no-one will see coming.
They're gonna get a rude awakening once I start playing this game.
Now it's do or die.
I'm going to avenge Winna.
I was very cocky in that Tribal Council,
but I'm a competitive eater
and I think I could eat maybe, like, 25 humble pies right now.
I hope you enjoy your clarity tonight.
I couldn't believe how many times my name came up.
It just shows how ruthless this game is.
My alliance were clearly outnumbered,
and they're gonna have to do a bit of work now moving forward.
