Night 8
The camera fades into the Sahka camp. Ominous music plays as the four remaining tribe members slowly make their way back to camp. After placing their torches down, Beth gives Freddy a thankful hug.

Beth: Thank you so much, sweaty.

Freddy: No problem.

Victor is seen in the shelter, growing more and more furious at his tribemates. Freddy, wanting to keep the mood calm, approaches him.

Freddy: I just want you to know it wasn't personal, I just had a bad feeling about going with you guys.

Victor: I can't believe you took the word of two bitches over me and Nick.

Freddy: Dude, you pretty much confirmed I was after Beth with your reactions.

Victor: Now it's game on.

Charley chuckles, shaking her head.

Charley: Alright, game on then.

*intro plays*

Day 9
The scene fades in to the first reward challenge of the season. After a few establishing shots, we see Probst.

Jeff: Come on in, guys!

Komi and Tuva are the first two tribes to arrive to the challenge. After they step onto their mat, they turn to the path they previously walked down to see who was voted out of Sahka.

Jeff: Komi and Tuva, getting your first look at the new Sahka tribe. Nick voted out at the last Tribal Council.

A few people, namely William, Jeffery, and Jamie, are seen shocked at the Tribal results. Sahka steps onto their mat and Jeff begins to explain the challenge. Jeff then asks for sit outs from Komi and Tuva. Komi sits out William and Katie while Tuva sits out Max. For Komi, the caller is Glenn, the roamers are Madison and Jeffery, while Lisa stays at the platform. For Sahka, the caller is Freddy, the roamers are Charley and Beth, while Victor stays at the platform. For Tuva, Gordan is the caller, Jamie and Jacob are the roamers, and Sasha stays at the platform. Gordan barks out orders to Jamie and Jacob. However, he gives them clear directions, giving them the lead over the other two tribes. Glenn and Freddy's voices get buried under Gordan's boisterous voice, making their tribes confused. Glenn's voice manages to break through Gordan's, giving Jeffery and Madison some clear direction, while Freddy is still struggling. Jamie and Jacob return with their fifth item, Jeffery and Madison with their second, while Beth and Charley continue to run into objects on the field. Jamie and Jacob rush to get their flag, causing Jamie to flip over one of the obstacles. As Jamie and Jacob get their flag, Beth and Charley finally get their first item as Madison and Jeffery get their fourth. Jamie and Jacob return with their flag and, with the help of Sasha, hoist it up. As soon as Gordan grabs it, Jeff announces Tuva as the first place winner. Sahka finally scores their first point as Komi scores their fifth. Jeffery drags Madison, rushing to try and get their flag before Sahka is able to catch up. He grabs the flag and rushes back, much to Madison's annoyance. As Charley and Beth get to their second object, Jeffery puts the flag down and begins to hoist it up. As Glenn grabs it, Jeff ends the challenge and declares Komi the second placers. As Jeff announces this, Victor throws his blindfold on the ground in anger. The scene then shifts to Jeff addressing the three tribes.

Jeff: Tuva, come get your reward. Congrats.

Tuva happily walks up to their crate of chickens and leave the area.

Jeff: Komi, a smaller reward, but here are the eggs. Head back to camp.

Katie takes the eggs and leaves with her tribe. Jeff then turns to Sahka.

Jeff: Sahka, got nothing for ya. Head on back to camp.

The scene goes into slow motion as Sahka leaves to go back to camp.

The scene changes to the Sahka camp. The tribe comes back empty handed and disappointed. Victor, who was carrying the tribe flag, slams it on the ground.

Victor: That was pathetic.

Charley shakes her head, annoyed at Victor.

Charley (To herself): Here we go.

Victor: You killed us, Freddy. Absolutely killed us.

Freddy, trying to ignore Victor, lays in the shelter with Beth.

Beth: Just ignore him.

Freddy: I know.

Victor: You are pathetic.

Victor goes off on his own to collect his thoughts. Once he is away, Charley joins Beth and Freddy.

Charley: Nothing's changed? We still voting him next?

Freddy: Oh yeah.

Charley: Good.

The scene then shifts to Victor in the forest. We see a montage of him looking around for any signs of the idol. He searches high and low but is having a tough time.

Victor: Come on you son of a bitch.

Victor goes into a small river and begins to look around but comes up empty handed. He swears under his breath before walking back to camp.

Victor returns to camp while the other three sleep in the shelter. He takes a pan full of water and pours it over the fire. The sight of this shocks the other three, with Freddy being speechless.

Charley: Dude!

Victor: Go ahead, vote me out. Try and start the fire without me.

Charley: We will!

Charley tosses the wet wood away before stacking up the dry wood to try and restart the fire.

Charley begins to try and spark a flame but Freddy, feeling awful, walks up and kneels next to Charley.

Freddy: Let me try.

Charley: It's ok, I got it.

Freddy: He did this because of me, let me just help.

Charley, knowing Freddy feels awful, hands him the flint and machete.

Freddy strikes the flint a few times before a small fire is ignited. Victor looks disgusted and leaves the camp as Charley and Freddy build the fire.

The two rejoin Beth in the shelter to continue their previous conversation.

The scene changes to the Tuva camp. Gordan and Max carry in the chicken coop and places it near their tribe flag. Sasha is seen to be extremely happy as she and Jamie share a hug.

Sasha: We're gonna eat tonight, boys!

Max: Good, I need some food besides rice.

"tuva"

- Winning the chickens was a big boost in moral for us. Tonight, we're gonna devour chicken and live like kings and queens!

The scene shifts to a few moments later. Jacob is seen cooking the chicken as Jamie, Max, and Sasha talk in the shelter. Gordan is glaring at Jacob, jealous that he is cooking the chicken.

"tuva"

- I won those chickens. Not anyone else. I should be the one who cooks the chicken because they're mine. I have no idea why Jacob thinks he gets to cook the chicken.

Gordan: Remember to keep stirring it.

Jacob: I know dude, chill.

Gordan: Well you're doing it wrong.

Jacob: How do you stir wrong? How?

Gordan: Don't test me kid.

"tuva"

- Jacob as a s--tty attitude and that's gonna be the reason I take him out.

"tuva"

- I have no idea what is wrong with Gordan. For some reason he does not like me. The feeling is mutual since he's just a complete ass.

Gordan, still angered, leaves Jacob and joins everyone in the shelter.

"tuva"

- I'm just letting him make a fool of himself so the next time we go to Tribal, everyone will vote him.

Gordan lays down next to Jamie, who seems to be upset that Gordan has interrupted her conversation with Sasha and Max.

Gordan: I'm so glad he's the next to go. He doesn't deserve to be in this game.

Jamie: Just chill out, don't need drama.

"tuva"

- I got my tribe on lock. They will do whatever I say.

"tuva"

- Gordan is a piece of work. He thinks he's some mastermind but really he is the cancer to our tribe.

Gordan, now asleep, snores loudly while everyone else eats a bit of the cooked chicken. Jamie looks at Sasha with a look that says 'Really?!', causing her to giggle.

"tuva"

- I think I should just cut my losses and send him out of the game. He's just too much to handle.

The scene changes to the Komi camp. The tribe happily returns to camp with Katie still carrying the eggs. She places them on top of a nearby tree stump as everyone relaxes after the challenge.

Katie cracks two eggs over the pan to start cooking for the tribe.

Madison and Glenn sit in the shelter as they watch Katie cook. Jeffery, Lisa, and William are off somewhere else so Madison takes this time to talk to Glenn.

Madison: Did you guys talk to William about Jeffery possibly having the idol?

Glenn: Yeah, he's on board on getting Jeffery out.

Madison: Alright sounds good, now we can relax even if we go to Tribal.

Glenn: Yeah.

The scene switches to Jeffery and Glenn by the fire, enjoying the eggs Katie cooked. Madison is napping in the shelter, giving Glenn time to talk to Jeffery.

Glenn: You know about Madison, right?

Jeffery: Yeah, Lisa told me the first day.

Glenn: Well she's spreading rumors about you having the idol.

Jeffery: Damn man, you don't believe that, do you?

Glenn: No, I trust you when you say you don't have it.

Jeffery: Thanks.

Glenn: Everyone is on board to get her out first if we lose.

Jeffery: Alright, that sounds good. But I at least want to talk to her.

Glenn: If you do, please don't mention I told you this.

Jeffery: I promise.

The scene changes to Madison and Jeffery taking a walk down the beach.

Jeffery: So we never really got a chance to talk so I was wondering where your head is at.

Madison: Honestly, I'm worried I'm on the bottom because people barely talk to me.

Jeffery (Chuckles): You and me both, sister.

Madison: Honestly, I do want to work with you going forward.

Jeffery: Same, I feel like I can trust you.

The two hug.

Madison and Jeffery walk back to camp as Madison sits by the fire.

After Madison's confessional, the scene fades to black to go to commercial.
