Banana Split

Survivor: Vieques
This is episode 4 of Survivor: Vieques. This episode is titled "Banana Split". This episode chronicles Days 13-14.

Reward Challenge
'''This reward challenge is important, for it determines what tribe will me dissolved into the other two. Each tribe must use whatever means necessary to get a crate to a dock in the water, then use an axe on the dock to open the crate. Once opened, there will be four bags. Each person must, one at a time, swim a bag back to shore to the puzzle station. Once all four members are at the puzzle station, they must work together to solve a very difficult puzzle that, when finished, will read "Still A Tribe". Once the winners are crowned, Jeff will give each member of the losing tribe an egg. The egg must be smashed on your chest, and whichever color is revealed, you will join said tribe. '''

Winners: Yaureibo & Bieque (Cacimar is no longer a tribe.)

Immunity Challenge
'''This immunity challenge was a surprise to each contestant, as it was an individual immunity challenge to grant two people; one from each tribe, immunity for the double tribal council that was scheduled. The last person standing from each tribe would win immunity. This is an endurance challenge, in which all you had to do was hang onto a pole for as long as you can. This challenge was done in Cook Islands, as the first individual immunity challenge. '''

Winners: Jessie & Mackenzie

Cacimar
Cacimar lost the challenge, and was vanquished...

Yaureibo
Yaureibo returned to their camp with two new members, Andrew and Jessie. They all introduced themselves and got to know each other.

As the day progressed, and everybody got acquainted, Autumn and Jonny pulled Cassie aside and made mention that the Yaureibo original needed to stick together. It would be detrimental for the tribe to get too close to the other two. Cassie, who has taken a liking to Andrew, with them being the same age, reluctantly agreed. Cameron was delighted when Andrew offered to go fishing with him and they had a bonding moment, catching more fish than Cameron ever caught previously. The two of them combined played a great provider role, and Cameron was happy with his new tribe.

Bieque
With three new members, Paul, Colleen, and Jason, the new Bieque tribe was happy to see some more muscle, which would surely help them in future challenges. The three new members quickly got together and decided to stick together, and Mackenzie immediately saw this as an opportunity to get numbers on her side. She approached them and offered to join them to get numbers. Paul, who didn't buy her story, told her they needed to talk about it. They weren't sure where idols came into play in this tribe, and they talked it over the course of the night.

"bieque"

- Why would a Bieque member approach us? Is that genuine or what? I'm not sure. She does seem a bit on the outs with the other three. Maybe it's worth it. I don't know yet.

Day Fourteen

Yaureibo
Yaureibo was unfortunately headed to tribal council tonight, along with Bieque. Yaureibo, however, had a tough decision. The only new member who is elligible to be voted out is Andrew, who was a great addition to the tribe. They also all got along with him, and Cassie had taken a liking to him. If it wasn't Andrew, it would be either Jonny or Autumn, who both were weaker in challenges, and weren't part of the core alliance. Andrew, Jessie, and Cassie discussed their options, to which Cassie promptly assured them that she could persuade Malik and Cameron. When she approached Cameron, he said it would be unfair to go against original Yaureibo, but Malik agreed, claiming that Autumn was the weaker member and they needed to win challenges.

Andrew, who was still worried about Cameron's vote, and trust, he took him aside. He showed Cameron the idol, and Cameron was impressed with Andrew's concern. He truly believed Andrew at this point, and agreed to vote with him.

Bieque
The original Bieque members had been outnumbered. With three new members, and Mackenzie, they had been pushed to the edge. Although they were mostly out of options, they were concerned with which of them would be voted out. Connor, who desperately wanted to stay, approached Jason and told him that he is voting for Cynthia. Jason was at odds. They still had the numbers to vote off somebody, and Connor just painted a target on his own back. Jason, Colleen, Mackenzie, and Paul all decided that it was Connor who deserved to go.

"bieque"

- Jason, please listen to me man. It's a good plan. Cynthia is not trustworthy. I am. Not her...

"bieque"

- Man! Connor, you intrigue me. We had no reason to vote for you tonight, until you came up to me and put a target on your own back! You shouldn't have said anything. Now I'm just worried that Mackenzie is b-s'ing me. We'll see tonight.

Yaureibo headed to tribal first, because they came in last at the immunity challenge. Bieque would follow.

Voting Confessionals
"bieque"

- You did this to yourself buddy...

"bieque"

- I told everybody to vote for you. It's in the best interest of the tribe.

"bieque"

- Uhhhh... I have no idea... what's going on?

"bieque"

- This sucks. This merger screwed us all over.

"bieque"

- Time for Cacimar to truly take over Bieque.

"bieque"

- In a game of numbers, it most definitely feels good to be on this side.

"bieque"

- Nice...

Final Words
"bieque"

- This damn game is so unpredictable. I should have kept my mouth shut. I am so pissed. This sucks! Peace, and good riddance.

Next Time on Survivor...
Another twist sends the tribes back into disarray and one dominant alliance starts to take control.
