Previously on Survivor...
Caryn felt alienated after her only ally Dreamz was voted out, leaving her to lash out at everyone on her tribe the next morning, causing a heated discussion between her and Marissa. Meanwhile, Pete and Andrea were questioning Tony's loyalty after he eliminated their close ally Dreamz, despite Pete's warning. At the reward challenge, Jeff revealed that the castaways would be playing as individuals, but the Anarchy twist would still remain. At the first challenge, it came down to a battle between the two powerhouses Aras & Terry. In the end, Aras pulled out a win, making him the first captain of the season. Back at camp, Francesca tried to see where Andrea's loyalties lie, causing her to fear Andrea's loyalty wasn't what it used to be, causing her to beg Aras to not choose her for their tribe. In exchange, Aras promised that he would keep Francesca safe. In discussion as to how tribes would be picked Aras and Terry took different approaches, Aras chose people he knew would be loyal to him, while Terry tried to pick the strongest people. In the end harmony won as Aras and Ke Thu earned another victory. Back at camp, Tony and Marissa tried to strike a deal with Yau-Man and Terry to boot Andrea from the game. Trying to make a bigger move, Terry informed Andrea that she was being targeted, leading Andrea to question Tony's loyalty even further. In the end, Tony and Marissa managed to convince Andrea they were on her side, turning the tables on Terry, making him the next person voted out. 9 are left, who will be voted out tonight?
