Challenges
Reward Challenge: Austin's Elemental Obstacle Course The tribe will be divided into three teams. The players from each team will be attached to each other with ropes attached to belts around their waists. They will begin by racing through a tunnel of hay. They will then make their way over and under a series of hitching posts. The next step is to grab a bucket, fill it with water and make their way over a giant teeter-totter. They will then pour the water from their bucket into a larger bucket. When the larger bucket is full, it will lower a gate. The team will then race through the gate to solve a plank puzzle. The first team to get it right will win reward. Reward: Trip to a spa with lunch. Winners: TBA

The episode opens to the final nine trudging back into the tribal council area. They place their torches down and stand around the fire. Many of the castaways start congratulating Joe. Marcus simply watches from a distance.

The scene cuts away from Marcus watching the other castaways to Joe and Jacob meeting by a log near the beach.

Joe (quietly): Damn, I can't believe we did it, that was awesome!

Jacob (with a half-smirk): It so was, I am on such a survivor high right now.

The conversation becomes inaudible as the camera focuses on Joe however the excitement is clear.

Joe gets up to leave after they finish their conversation while Jacob remains, thinking joyfully to himself with a smile.

The camera switches to Kathy who is glaring at Jacob from a tree near the fire.

Kathy approaches Joe as he returns and gives him a face as if to say 'what was that?'

Joe (quietly): Don't worry, everything is under control.

Kathy (with a harsh whisper): What do you mean everything's under control? Jacob just flipped and now we're on the bottom.

Joe gestures for her to calm down before explaining.

Joe (whispering): Jacob is with us, he tipped me off about playing the idol for Carl, we're not going home next.

Kathy doesn't say anything but just nods, angry and a little embarrassed about her harsh judgement of the situation.

Joe leaves to go to the shelter whilst Kathy continues to silently fume near the fire. As Joe climbs into the shelter, the camera switches to Cindy who is lying on her side, watching everything that is going on.

Reward Challenge
An aerial shot shows the canopy of a lush, green, forested mountain. The drone taking the shot flies over the hill which ends with an abrupt cliff. It zooms in on a clearing. Within the clearing there are hitching posts, bundles of hay, water troughs, puzzle tables, giant see-saws and Jeff Probst.

Jeff Probst: Come on in guys!

The castaways march into the challenge arena in single file, with Kathy at the front and Pierce carrying the flag at the end. Once he sets it down, Probst explains the challenge. Once finished, he announces the reward will be a spa day with lunch included. This causes several castaways to start 'frothing at the mouth', notably Kathy who is especially excited. After allowing the castaways ample time to react, he announces they'll draw for teams and get started. A shot of the season logo on the puzzle is shown before, the castaways are seen again, in position for the challenge. On the red team is Pierce, Sarah and Kathy, on the purple team is Joe, Carl and Marcus and on the green team is Ali, Cindy and Jacob.

Jeff Probst: Alright, for reward, here we go, survivors ready... Go! Jeff Probst (running over to check): Purple team thinks they have it... No! Something's not quite right! Jeff Probst: GREEN TEAM WINS REWARD!!!!
 * All three teams jump right into it, bolting for the hay stack. Red team is first through with purple right on their tail. Cindy, Ali and Jacob are last through, slowed by the hay.
 * The first two teams make it through without too much trouble, however Joe, Carl and Marcus take the lead as Kathy takes a small fall. Ali makes it over the quickest for green team but she is dragged back by Jacob and Cindy who are struggling.
 * Joe scoops up water for red team and they begin to cross the see-saw, Pierce also grabs the water and purple team slowly follow. The steady balancing act that the first two teams are attempting to pull off allows green team to catch up and as red team's see-saw flips, Ali scoops up water from the trough.
 * Joe pours a huge amount of water in the second bucket, followed by Pierce. Each team scrambles back over the teeter-totter as Ali, Cindy and Jacob carefully make there way towards the second bucket.
 * Cindy stumbles as the see-saw tips and she loses balance, causing Ali to spill some of the water in her bucket. Kathy also stumbles, unable to keep up with Pierce and Sarah.
 * Joe scoops up more water and the three guys head back while Kathy is almost dragged off the see-saw. Ali dumps a small, almost pathetic amount of water into the second bucket and the green team heads back for more water, disappointed.
 * Joe, Carl and Marcus empty their second bucket, lowering the gate as Pierce, Sarah and Kathy's see-saw tips. Cindy, Jacob and Ali pick up the pace, panicking at how far behind they are. As Pierce empties the red teams second bucket, Ali is scooping up more water.
 * Joe and Carl high-step their way through the gate with ease but Marcus, exhausted, trips himself up. The water that red team manages to get over the see-saw isn't as much as their previous efforts but it is enough and their get lowers.
 * As purple team moves their planks onto the puzzle table, red team cross over the gate and green team pour in their second bucket of water. Unlike the first two teams however, it is not enough and they have to go back once again.
 * Marcus, exhausted though he may be, is leading his team on the puzzle and the progress is steady. Pierce, Sarah and Kathy begin to panic as they work on their puzzle. Kathy's complaining about not being good at puzzles doesn't help.
 * Finally, green team returns with their third bucket, it is emptied into the bucket. Ali shakes it to get as much water as possible out. It is just enough and the three, pick up the pace, encouraged by their luck.
 * As they unload their planks, Ali stands back, allowing for Cindy and Jacob to take over the puzzle. Joe, Marcus and Carl are about halfway with their puzzle and still going steady. The red team on the other hand has planks scattered about the place in no particular order as they try to make progress.
 * Cindy and Jacob are making quick progress, working well together, however Marcus, slams his hands down on the puzzle and calls Probst over.
 * Marcus stands back confused and Joe points out the problem and Marcus goes to bring the piece out however it is jammed. Eventually he gets it, shuffles the other pieces to the side and places it in.
 * Cindy calls for Probst and Marcus does too. Cindy is just first however, and Probst goes over to check whilst Marcus looks on, uneasily.

Cindy, Jacob and Ali celebrate, shocked at their success. Carl smiles at Ali whilst Marcus apologises. Joe pats him on the back to tell him it's OK. Pierce half-chuckles at his teams efforts whilst Kathy curses and rolls her eyes in fierce anger. Soon the tribe is all gathered back in single file, facing Probst as they were before.

Jeff Probst: Ali, Cindy, Jacob, come on over, huge come from behind victory, a helicopter will be here shortly to take you to your reward, you've earned it. For the rest of you, got nothin' for ya, grab your stuff, head back to camp.

Cindy, Jacob and Ali all grin, keen for their reward. Ali waves to Carl as he leaves and he waves back. A helicopter flies over head and the three can be seen jumping on. Meanwhile, the other six walk back to camp empty handed and the camera focuses on Kathy who is still glaring at anything and everything.
