My Only Shot

This is the twelfth episode of Survivor: Hawaii - Blood vs Water

Challenges
Day 31 Reward/Immunity Challenge: Paddle Out TEach person will balance an oversized paddle on a stand. They will each roll a ball down the paddle and attempt to land it in a hole. The first person to get one ball in each of the six holes wins Immunity. Reward: A horseback ride through Hawaii along with lunch and dessert. Winner: Ray Gains (Brought Jamie Kurt and Megan Fink)

Day 33 Immunity Challenge: A Bit Tipsy The players will each pull on a rope, which balances their wobbly table. While trying to keep their table balanced, they will race out to collect a series of wooden blocks. They will bring the blocks back one at a time and place them upright on the table. If their table wobbles and the blocks fall, then they will have to reset them before heading back out. The first person to place all ten of their blocks wins Immunity. Winner: 

Night 30
The final eight return from Tribal and instead of going right to bed, they split up into their respective alliances of four where they agree to vote out the leader of the other alliance (with Jamie, Ray, Megan, and Hannah agreeing to vote Laura and Laura, Cody, Chris, and Andrew voting Jamie).

"molokai"

- Jamie and I started out as close allies but as the game went along, I realized it's not in my best interest to go any deeper with her. So right now, I need her out next.

Day 31
In the morning, Cody tries out spear fishing. He goes out on a boat with Chris and attempts to catch fish. However, he is unable to catch any big fish, only tiny fish. He returns with five small fish.

"molokai"

- I thought I was good at fishing but today just showed otherwise. We're running low on food so we need all the fish we can get.

Chris and Laura go off on their own to talk about his fake idol. Laura suggests using it to try and get someone to flip if things don't go their way after Tribal. When asked who to try and trick, Laura suggests Hannah, as she hasn't seen many idols and would probably fall for it as Chris's fake idol looks real.

"molokai"

- If the other side gets the numbers after the next Tribal, my last attempt is this fake idol and Hannah would be the best person to receive it.

The final eight then meet Jeff for their next challenge. Jeff informs them that someone will win immunity and reward. Someone will also be sent to Exile but return in time for Tribal. Megan gives immunity back as Jeff explains the challenge. Hannah and Andrew struggle early, not being able to balance their balls on their paddle. However, Ray flies through the challenge. Chris attempts to catch up but his haphazard speed causes three of his balls to fall off his paddle. Ray gets his sixth ball in his hole, winning him immunity. He sends Andrew to Exile and brings Jamie and Megan with him on reward.

"molokai"

- I'm glad I got to keep this necklace away from Laura so that we can get rid of her ass tonight.

Andrew spends the majority of the day looking for the idol. However, even with all the clues he has, he is unable to find it. He comes to the conclusion that either Ray or Chris have found it and worries about his position.

"molokai"

- If Ray or Chris have the idol, then I don't know if I'm in such a good position as I originally thought.

Meanwhile, Jamie, Ray, and Megan enjoy the horseback. After the ride, they sit down for lunch. Megan worries about Laura, Chris, and Cody trying to convince Hannah into flipping and voting out either her or Ray. However, Jamie reassures the two that Hannah is sticking with them and won't flip on her.

"molokai"

- They can't worry about Hannah because that worries me. Hannah is with us guys, just relax!

Just like Megan feared, Laura, Cody, and Chris try to work on Hannah into voting for her mother. Cody states that getting rid of Jamie would be a huge move and say something about Hannah as a strategist. Hannah agrees, saying it is tempting but is worried about the backlash she would receive from Ray and Megan. Chris states she can't worry about them as they would backstab her in a heartbeat and it's best to do it to them before they do it to her.

"molokai"

- Voting out my mom is very tempting. It could be my only shot to win this game because I haven't played a very flashy game, I've just been skating along. This move could be the move where I can look to the jury and say 'Yes, I played this game hard. Vote for me.'

Ray, Megan, and Jamie return from reward and Hannah, surprisingly, doesn't tell the three about her conversation with the other alliance. She states that they kept their distances and did chores. However, Ray sees through Hannah's lie.

"molokai"

- I don't believe Hannah for a second. I think she's gonna join them which is why who I play my idol on is super important.

At Tribal, Andrew is brought in from Exile and they begin the QnA. Chris states the alliances are four against four and would most likely go to rocks. Laura makes a plea to Hannah, without mentioning her name, saying that if she goes to rocks, she would be in danger of going home and, even if she stayed, could be seen as passive. Jamie tells her alliance to ignore the other alliance and just stick with their plan. The tribe is then called to vote.

When Jeff returns with the votes, Ray plays his idol on Jamie. This negates four votes against her and sends Laura, who received the other alliances votes, to the jury.

The final seven return and Chris is visibly upset to see his wife get voted out. Cody and Andrew try to comfort him but he asks to be alone.

"molokai"

- Watching Laura leave like that...it hurt. It really did. I need to do this for her to make it up to her.

Voting Confessionals
"molokai"

- I hope if Chris has the idol, he uses it on Laura.

"molokai"

- I can't let my wife go so early.

"molokai"

- You're a threat, plain and simple.

"molokai"

- I can't vote out my mom. I'm sorry.

"molokai"

- We were once allies but I need to do this for me.

"molokai"

- May the best woman win.

"molokai"

- You're a very influential woman. You have to go if we want a shot.

"molokai"

- Look at that, Jamie destroyed your game again.

Final Words
"molokai"

- I feel like I played a better game than I did last time while staying true to myself. I don't regret a thing and wish Chris luck.
