 Abi is a humble one after Tribal Council. The group spared her to vote out the immunity threat, Carter. She thanks everyone for keeping her. Lisa still wants to keep beatable people around so she can win the million easier. Skupin points out to Abi that she probably thought she was going to be in the final 5, but, with other people instead of these people.

Abi keeps up with the charade that she has the hidden immunity idol. No one buys it. Her threat level was so high last night that the group speculates that if she had the idol she would have played it by now.

Abi pulls Lisa aside to warn her of the "final 3 alliance" of Skupin, Malcolm and Denise. Lisa does not buy it but she needs to keep her close. Whether to keep her in the game or a vote in the jury. Lisa has options to her likings.

 

Reward Challenge

Players race up and over a slide into the ocean. Once the contestants collect both bundles of rings, they need to throw the rings on 5 hooks. The winner gets food and a whale watching experience.

Go!

Everyone is off to a quick start up the ramp and down the slide. Lisa flies down causing her to barrel roll. This waste time as she is slow to get back on her feet. However, it doesn't stop her and she does not give up. Malcolm, Skupin and Denise are in the lead. Mike lands a few of his rings while Malcolm lands one. Skupin lands ANOTHER!! Everyone catches up and is throwing rings at the pegs. Skupin and Malcolm both have 4 rings on a hook with one more to go. Skupin scores his fifth ring and wins reward. He chooses Malcolm and Lisa as whale watching partners. He gets a helicopter ride, the last time this happened he was evacuated from the game.

 

Denis is in her own personal hell, camp by herself with a bitter Abi. She plays nice and lets her mouth go on and on.

 

The others are having the time of their lives. Skupin is on a sugar high and acts like a bigger buffoon than ever. The 3 make a final 3 deal to oust Denise after Abi. Lisa is skeptical but she goes along with the deal because she knows what happened to turn down deals in the game. Looks at Penner.

 

Denise is in pain. She woke up and she felt something was on fire. She has a sharp stinging pain in her neck. Almost like a knife wound from a backstab. Cough cough looks at Malcolm. Or it is just an affect from spending the day alone with Abi. No one knows what happened but she speculates she was bit. This shows her vulnerable side. I mean, she has been in game-bot mode for 30 something days. This makes her human.

 

The prayer circle then prays for Denise. Remember, she doesn’t believe in the Lord. It didn’t stop her from praying and sobbing. This is so weird how she turned around in a couple of weeks; the power of prayer.

 

Immunity Challenge

 

Castaways use planks to cross a bridge. The planks will be a part of the maze that players will solve to win immunity. Everyone does really well out the gate to cross the rope bridge. Malcolm and Skupin are head to head until the young man falls down. Even Abi is ahead of Malcolm right now. Denise is making great progress. Denise thinks she solves it but one piece doesn’t fit. Malcolm comes from behind and completes his maze. He gets his ball, rolls it down the right hole, and wins immunity. Malcolm is double safe tonight. He has the immunity idol and immunity necklace.

 

Everyone is sitting around the fire. BOOM! A spark hits Michael in the face. Fire is not too kind on the old man. Abi is getting drained from scrambling. She sweet talks to Skupin to persuade him to take her to the final 3. No one will vote for her. She reaffirms to him that if he takes Denise or Malcolm then they have no chance. Skupin, in a confessional, says that hanging around Abi for the next 3 days is definitely worth a million dollars.

 

Lisa and Skupin have a pow-wow. Lisa loves having Abi in the final 3. However, Lisa also needs Denise around for man power to stop Malcom’s immunity win streak. Abi is not going to help Lisa/Skupin win immunity next round.

 

Denise pulls Malcolm aside and asks him if he is going to use the idol, hinting to use it on her. Malcolm doesn’t want to give it to her; he thinks she is safe.

 

Tribal Council

 

Abi is gloomy and doomy. Tears are in her eyes and she pleads a case that she is beatable. Denise pipes in that Abi is lucky that Tangdang never went to tribal. Lisa defends her Tangdang colors by saying their team didn’t rely on Luck but on strength. It was a Lisa vs. Denise mini catfight.

 

Abi then had diarrhea of the mouth. She criticized Denise for being unbeatable in the game, calling Mike an idiot and moron for keeping Denise in the game because she is a manipulator, strong player and physical threat. She venoms out that they will lose to the Matsing survivors.

Tivo Moment of The Night

 

After voting out Abi, Michael skips, dances, jigs, and celebrates walking away from tribal council. His moves are pretty hilarious.
