Ethics Don't Exist

This is the season finale of Survivor: Grenada- Temptations!

Challenges
Reward Challenge (Day 36): Bow Didley Castaways must stand on an angled balance beam while balancing a ball. At regular intervals, they would move further down the beam, making it harder to keep steady. The last person standing wins. Reward: The Temptation, plus a night at a resort, including spending the night in a bed. Winner: TBD

Immunity Challenge (Day 37): Stacked Up Using a fork, castaways must maneuver a disc through a wobbly maze and then stack it on a platform. They'll continue this until they have all twelve discs on their platform. If at any point their stack falls over, they must start over. The first person to finish their stack and free stands for at least three seconds wins. Winner: TBD

Night 35
(Following Jamie's elimination, the camera picks up as the Final Four. return to camp. Amidst the normal sounds of torches being leaned against trees and bags being put back in the shelter, what started as a few tears from Kendra has turned into audible sobbing as she struggles to keep it together.)

Kendra: (sobbing) I'm a horrible person! I'm a terrible, awful friend! I don't deserve friends!

Samantha: No, Kendra, that's not true. You just made the move you thought was best.

Kendra: It is true! The way he looked at me... he was so hurt... he hates me! Everyone on the Jury hates me! (her shoulders shake) Everything is so hopeless now... I might as well just spend the next few days bleating because I'm a goat now!

Eddiot: Bleeding? But if you bleed for a few days you'll die.

Kendra: Bleating, not bleeding. Bleating, like the noise a goat makes. Shut up!

(Kendra continues sobbing and walks into the shelter.)

"mitra"

- I'm such an awful person! I betrayed Jamie. I was so selfish, after everything we went through together I just turned on him like that. I didn't even tell him! I let him walk into Tribal thinking he was staying, and then when he looked at me... (sobs) with the most pained look in his eyes. I'm the worst friend in the world. I don't deserve friends and I keep hurting people. I thought about what Samantha said, and thought I needed to get Jamie out to have a chance at winning... because if I left it until fourth it was going to be even worse, but nope! I made the wrong choice and ruined everything, just like my friends all said I would! How am I ever supposed to win now if even Jamie hates me? When he gets there, he's going to turn Shivani and Meiling against me, and Brooklyn's going to hate me for abandoning her, and... I'm never going to win!

(Brooklyn sighs and heads into the shelter to talk to Kendra, while the other two are tending to the fire. Samantha is seen ushering Eddiot away as he looks like he is about to burn himself. The camera then goes back to Brooklyn.)

Brooklyn: Kendra?

Kendra: I know you hate me! You don't have to say it!

Brooklyn: What? Of course I don't hate you. I'm just confused as to what happened. We agreed to take Jamie out at fourth. I thought you were down for that.

Kendra: I know I was... I know I said that. It's just, when I thought about it, I thought getting him out at fourth would be worse, because... then people would just think I was a huge goat who was just trying to steal Jamie's game! I had to prove I could play strategically!

Brooklyn: That doesn't sound like something you'd say... (sighs) Did Samantha talk to you before Tribal, by any chance?

Kendra: ...Yes?

Brooklyn: Kendra, Samantha just manipulated you.

Kendra: What? No she didn't!

Brooklyn: Yes she did. It's what she always does. She plays on your weaknesses and exploits them to her advantage. She got into your head and made you scared and got you to flip on Jamie. Trust me, at this stage of the game, she may act like your best friend, but all she cares about is herself and getting to the end. I love Samantha, I think she's a great person, but I know the type of player she is. If you keep letting her, she'll screw with your head even more.

Kendra: Oh my God...

Brooklyn: I'm sorry that she got to you, but you can't let her do that again. We agreed to get Jamie out at fourth, we could have booted Samantha and then just taken Jamie out next and it'd be us three in the finals. Jamie didn't even know he was going-

Kendra: Don't you think I know I lied to him? I should have just stayed to our plan! Now everyone's just going to hate me and I'm going to look like a massive idiot.

Brooklyn: You're not an idiot, you just need to realise how dangerous Samantha is.

Kendra: I... so you're literally telling me that the strategic move I made to make sure I made one wasn't even my move?

Brooklyn: I'm sure it was at the back of your mind, but what I'm saying is that Samantha played on all your weaknesses to use to her advantage, and she'll do it again and again and again... unless we stop her.

"mitra"

- I should have known that Samantha would wriggle her way out of this. (laughs) Oh my God... when I saw she didn't play her idol, I actually thought we'd pulled it off, but nope! Samantha did what she does best, exploit people's weakness and use it to her advantage. She got to Kendra and got her to turn on Jamie a round earlier than we'd planned because she convinced her the Jury would hate her even more if she did it then. (sigh) And here I am coming back to camp having A) voted against Samantha and B) lied to Eddiot, which puts me in a pretty freaking bad position. I turned down that $50,000 because I thought I could win, and I am not going to live to regret that decision by getting out in fourth! Over the next couple of days, I'm going to have to do everything in my power to turn these two against Samantha and just pray she doesn't win the god damn necklace. If I can't do that, then there's a seat on that Jury bench with my name on it.

(Brooklyn then goes out of the shelter. Eddiot approaches her.)

Eddiot: So, uh, why'd you lie to me? Kinda sucks. I mean, it's dope that Jamie's gone, so that part doesn't suck, but you said to me that I was getting votes and you were voting Jamie. Then, what actually happened was Samantha got votes and Kendra voted Jamie, but you voted Samantha. So...

Brooklyn: (sighs) I'm sorry I had to lie to you, but I had to look out for myself and protect you. The only way I could do that was vote Samantha and tell you the votes were going on you. Trust me, I'll explain it more in the morning when we can get away together. I care about you, Eddiot.

Eddiot: Yeah, I care about you too, but it still sucks that you lied. Not gonna lie.

Brooklyn: I know I've lied to you again, but when I explain this in the morning, you'll understand.

Eddiot: Alright, dope.

(Eddiot and Brooklyn go their separate ways, the camera focusing on a disappointed Eddiot.)

"mitra"

- Alright, camera people, so I got lied to by Brooklyn again. This wasn't just a small lie, but a super big, lots of things, lie. She was like, "Yeah I had to lie to protect you, I'll explain in the morning" so I guess I'll listen to her. It sucks, because I really, really like her, she's my best friend out here, but she keeps lying to me and keeps trying to turn on Samantha for some reason. Like, Samantha told me that she, me and Brooklyn were all going to three, but Brooklyn keeps voting against us? It's hard, because I do like Brooklyn better than Samantha, but Samantha has been more loyal to me. I guess they're still gonna be targeting each other and, uh... I really don't know what I'm gonna do if that happens, but I wish people would just be straight with me like I'm straight with them! I kinda get why Kendra flips her every time people lie to her now. It's super annoying! (laughs)

(From Eddiot's confessional, the camera picks up as he goes back to Samantha.)

Samantha: See, I told you everything would work out the way we wanted!

Eddiot: Yeah, and I didn't say anything, just like you said, and now Jamie's gone! It sucks that Brooklyn voted you though.

Samantha: Yeah... after our deal and everything. At least we have each other's backs!

Eddiot: Yeah, I'll stick by you!

Samantha: And I, you. We've only got one more round until we get to the final three, so let's stick it out.

(The camera focuses on Samantha as she is smiling, and the camera cuts to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- (wearing her unused idol around her neck) Look at my beautiful souvenir! Tonight went perfectly. Brooklyn certainly tried it, but I couldn't let her get the upper hand on me again, could I? (laughs) My relationship with Kendra was pretty much for exactly this and it worked brilliantly. I knew about her insecurities and planted a seed in her head that she'd be ruined unless she voted my way, and I knew that I'd gotten to her, so I didn't play my idol. Now, my biggest threat is gone, I've got one back on Brooklyn and she looks like a douche for lying to Eddiot. Amazing! So as far as things go, Eddiot knows I've been loyal to him, and I know my magic can work on Kendra. I think the plans are pretty set in motion for the end at this stage. All I need is for Brooklyn to go next and I'm home and hosed. It does concern me a little that we might be in for a final two since it's Night 35 and there's four of us left, but with the Temptations doing this, that, and everything, they could be allowing extra days for something big. I'm more than capable of winning my way out of trouble if something goes wrong, and I'm sure Brooklyn will try turning the tides against me, but you know what they say: If at first you don't succeed, give up and destroy any evidence you even tried, because if you try a second time, Hurricane Samantha will destroy you. (cackles)

Pre-Reward
On the morning of Day 36, the camera opens up as the castaways are relaxing around Camp Mitra. Brooklyn then goes to Kendra and asks her to come for a walk. Kendra obliges, and the camera focuses on Brooklyn as she walks into the forest with her.

"mitra"

- I know that I'm skating on thin ice right now and Samantha is sure to be targeting me again now that I've taken a swipe at her and missed. I'm pretty sure I only have a couple of days to swing people, and that's not even taking into account the reward challenge. I need to work very hard to get Kendra and Eddiot on my side today, because just from speaking to them last night, Kendra fell for Samantha's manipulation and Eddiot is upset with me for voting for her because he thought she'd take me to the final three. It seems like Samantha has them in her grasp, so I need to make them see through her, or at the very least convince them that I'm better to go up against in the finals. I'm not going to stoop to dirty tactics, but I am going to have to remember that I'm going up against a cutthroat master manipulator, so I'm going to have to be ferocious.

(The camera picks up as the two of them walk into the forest.)

Kendra: So I really need to know what happened last night, no bull or manipulating or anything like that. I just wish, for once in this game, that people could be honest with me!

Brooklyn: Well, here's the truth: Samantha manipulated you, and she'll do it again if it fits her game. You just can't fall for it.

Kendra: How are you so sure she manipulated me?

Brooklyn: What did she say?

Kendra: Well, I told you most of it last night. Basically that I was going to be even more hated if I took Jamie out at fourth, because four is a betrayal and five is a move, and how I'd just be stuck going to the end with Jamie.

Brooklyn: And, right before she talked to you, you were perfectly okay with our plan to get Samantha out at fifth and Jamie fourth, right? Because, when I explained it to you, it made sense?

Kendra: Yes...

Brooklyn: Did Samantha mention anything else?

Kendra: That my friends back home would laugh at me because I had the perfect opportunity to win the million dollars and wouldn't have taken it if I didn't vote Jamie out, which was so right! That's not manipulation!

Brooklyn: Kendra... yes it is. Think about this: You were perfectly fine with voting Jamie, right up until Samantha talks to you. Samantha convinces you the Jury will hate you, and your friends will make fun of you. What's your biggest insecurity in this game?

Kendra: That people will hate me and I'll make the wrong choice and my friends will make fun of me for it?

Brooklyn: And did Samantha know that?

Kendra: Yeah, we talked about it a lot.

Brooklyn: She manipulated you. She used your biggest insecurities against you to scare you into voting Jamie out and it worked.

Kendra: You mean... she deliberately...?

Brooklyn: Yep, that's exactly what she does. She did it with Topher, too. How do you think she got Topher to switch? Played up that she saved him, when really, we were just getting rid of Taihlaura.

Kendra: Oh my God...

Brooklyn: And trust me, she will get into your head again and again if it benefits her game. Even if you don't believe this, you surely can't think going to the end with Samantha will do you any favours. With a few conversations, she was able to pull you away from Jamie, who had your back since the start of the game. She will stomp you and Eddiot. But you need to trust me, Samantha's not good for you, she's cutthroat and playing to win. She'll do whatever she can to get to the end.

Kendra: So what now? We just get rid of Samantha?

Brooklyn: Yep, we just have to make sure she doesn't win immunity, and then remember that, no matter what she says, she has to go.

Kendra: Ugh, now you're putting all this pressure on me! I hate pressure.

Brooklyn: I'm not trying to pressure you...

Kendra: Well, you are! We have to make sure Samantha doesn't get immunity. You haven't won any, I've won two, which means you're putting the pressure on me to win! I always crack when people put me under pressure!

Brooklyn: I haven't won immunity, but I've won two Temptations, so I'm going to be right in there. And we have Eddiot-

Kendra: Who sucks at puzzles and won't win if there's one there, and who says he'd even vote with us anyway? He'll never vote for Samantha!

Brooklyn: I'll deal with that, don't worry. Eddiot will end up voting with us. Just remember, anything Samantha says is just her trying to get into your head. We need to make sure that someone other than Samantha wins, then we can get her out.

Kendra: Stop putting pressure on me!

Brooklyn: Sorry, sorry. Just remember that I have your back, okay?

Kendra: I know. I just can't believe this is happening.

Brooklyn: I'm gonna go speak to Eddiot right now and take care of this.

(Brooklyn walks away to go and find Eddiot. The camera focuses on her before cutting to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- It took a while to get through to Kendra, but when we talked it out, piece by piece, I think she realised that Samantha had played her. Right now she's fragile, and she's getting worked up about having pressure put on her, which I don't want. If she's in that state of mind, Samantha could get to her again. So, it's key that I get Eddiot on my side because that way, the pressure can go off Kendra and the two of us can fight for immunity to beat Samantha out. I honestly feel awful for Kendra. Samantha found out her weaknesses and exploited them, but at least Kendra seems to be aware of it now. Things will be bad for everyone if Samantha makes the final three, so hopefully I've opened her eyes enough to turn on Samantha if she doesn't win the next challenge.

(The camera then changes focus to Kendra, who is frowning deeply.)

"mitra"

- I don't know what to think right now, but what Brooklyn's saying is slowly starting to make sense. Samantha knew about my insecurities, and when she talked to me and brought those up, I changed my vote. So... Samantha must have manipulated me. I just can't believe Samantha would stoop that low! I feel like I have to get her out now, because she'll destroy me if she goes to Final Tribal, and with Jamie being so hurt and everything else happening, I won't have a hope in winning. I just hate there's so much pressure on me now! If Samantha ends up winning, then I'll be in a really bad position, because Brooklyn will get Eddiot and they'll vote together, then we'll have to go to fire and there'll be so much pressure... I don't know what the hell to do. I just can't let Samantha get to the end if she's been manipulating me like this. Everyone will ruin me, both here and back at home.

(Following Kendra's confessional, there is a transitional nature shot, before the camera focuses on Brooklyn and Eddiot walking together.)

Eddiot: So, what were you gonna say to me?

Brooklyn: I just wanted to talk you through what happened last night. Even though we've voted differently the last two times, I never went back on my loyalty to you. Do you remember how I promised at the merge that I'd protect you?

Eddiot: Yeah, I remember.

Brooklyn: That's what I was doing last night Yesterday afternoon, they came up to me wanting to vote you off, because they thought Samantha had an idol. I told them I'd only vote for Samantha.

Eddiot: They were gonna vote for me?

Brooklyn: Yep, but I also wanted Samantha out because I knew she wasn't going to take me to the final four. I know you said she would, because she's probably told you that, but I know she wasn't going to. She was going to take you and Stanley, then when I took him out, she was going to take you and Kendra. I want you to do something for me: think back to a time when you had conversations, just you and her. Did she ever talk about voting me out?

Eddiot: Um.... yeah, actually, she did. That one time when you had that Temptation and it was between you and Ashanda, 'cause you were all like "I don't wanna vote Jamie now."

Brooklyn: Yeah,

Eddiot: She was thinking about it, 'cause she was like, "What if she never votes out Jamie?"

Brooklyn: Alright, so she talked about voting me out.

Eddiot: Yeah, but I told her I didn't want to. I never wanted to vote you out, like, ever, and I told you I'd have your back.

Brooklyn: I know you'd have my back, but answer me this: if you were really going to take someone to the end of the game, would you have even talked about voting them out?

Eddiot: Well... no, I wouldn't, but you can't say that's why you knew she wouldn't take you, because I only told you about that just now. I know Stanley and Samantha didn't tell you, and I know you weren't there when we talked about it, unless you, like, shapeshifted into a tree or something.

Brooklyn: (cracking a smile) No, I didn't turn into a tree. I'm not saying that's how I knew, but that proves that I was right. You know how strong a player she is and how she doesn't pull punches. She cut Topher without even thinking about it, and I know it was him or me, but she was so cold about it. She went and scared poor Kendra into flipping. Someone who's willing to go to those measures wasn't going to take me to the end. She's going to take people she thinks she can beat, and right now she thinks she can beat you and Kendra. That means she's cutting me at fourth, and I always knew that's what she was doing, so that's why I voted Stanley and that's why I voted Samantha last night. But through it all, I never doubted your loyalty to me and I never broke my promise to protect you.

Eddiot: Woah, yeah... she did do all that. I guess if she talked about voting you out and just went and scared Kendra into flipping, she would take you out at fourth, right?

Brooklyn: Did you know she had an idol? She could have saved herself, but no, she went and scared Kendra into flipping instead.

Eddiot: How do you know she had one?

Brooklyn: She told me and showed me. and she made me promise to keep it to myself. This should prove to you not only how cutthroat is, but how seriously I take my bonds of loyalty. Even when I went against Samantha and was trying to get her out, I never let her idol slip. Likewise, even when I was going against you, I always made sure that I upheld my promise to protect you. That's why I didn't tell Kendra that Samantha had the idol, because they would have switched their votes to you. I know you wanted to go to the end with us, but Samantha wasn't taking me, and that's why I've been flipping the last two votes. All this stuff should prove that.

Eddiot: ...Woah.

Brooklyn: You believe me, don't you?

Eddiot: Yeah, I do. It's kinda dope that you went with voting Samantha anyway, even though you knew about her idol. Kinda sucks that she didn't tell me.

Brooklyn: I know. But you know now that Samantha's a devastating player and she'll tear right through you to get to the end. If she gets there, she's getting all the votes, probably except for Stanley and Meiling's, which will go to you and Kendra respectively. I can't stress enough how I've always kept you at the back of my mind, even when flipping. I promised I had your back, and I'm keeping that promise, even if we don't always vote on the same side. You know you can trust me, and I need you to have my back here. We need to make sure Samantha doesn't win immunity and we need to vote her out. If it comes down to her and me, I need to be able to rely on you to save me. Can I?

Eddiot: Yeah, sure. Man, now I feel bad for being mad at you. I didn't know you were doing all that.

Brooklyn: It's okay. You know I care about you.

Eddiot: Yeah, I care about you, too!

(The two of them walk together. The camera focuses on Brooklyn, who is smiling.)

"mitra"

- If there was one regret I had about flipping, it was that Eddiot was upset with me, so clearing things up with him felt good for my heart as well as my head. I'm so glad Eddiot and I are on the same page and he understands that I never lost my loyalty to him even when we voted on different sides. He told me that Samantha had actually talked about voting me out at seven and when I told him about Samantha's idol and her cutthroat nature, he understood that she might not have been truthful in what she told him. I adore Eddiot, that's no secret, and I've protected him from everything in this game. He means a lot to me, I'm glad he's seen that and I think we'll continue to have each other's backs, even against Samantha.

(The camera then focuses on Eddiot, who also has a happy look on his face.)

"mitra"

- I'm not mad at Brooklyn anymore, camera people! She told me Samantha had an idol, which had me, like, mega shook because Samantha never told me. I think it's super dope that Brooklyn stuck her neck out for me like that, taking the votes off me even though she knew Samantha had an idol. I'm kinda starting to think she was right about Samantha not taking her to the final four. If she's doing all this stuff she, like, really wants to win, and she talked about voting Brooklyn out, so... I mean, I wouldn't have done it or even talked about it. If I deal with you for the four then I'm taking you guys to the four, so... I guess that means she wasn't? I dunno what I'm gonna do now. If Brooklyn has had my back and it's gonna be her and Samantha, I guess I'll have to vote Samantha out. But highkey I'd vote out Kendra before any of them, and I haven't even asked Samantha about all this, so I'm not gonna jump to plans just yet, y'know? Gotta give everyone a chance to make their way into that brain of mine! Not that my brain's gonna do much, but... yeah!

(Following Eddiot's confessional, the camera picks up as he goes back to Samantha, who is waiting at camp.)

Samantha: Well, what did Brooklyn say to you?

Eddiot: Yo, why did you tell Brooklyn you had an idol necklace, but not me?

Samantha: Oh, that.

Eddiot: Yeah, and why'd you work to flip Kendra if you could've just used your idol necklace anyway?

Samantha: Okay, to answer that second one, I didn't want people to just go "Oh, Samantha didn't do, she just used an idol and got a freebie. I wanted to try and flip the votes on my own and use an idol as a last resort so people would actually see that I did something. And as for your first question, you know I love and trust you, but the risk was too high you would've accidentally blabbed. Even you know you might've done it.

Eddiot: Well... yeah. It's like Natalie always tells me, "Eddiot, your mouth runs marathons but your brain is a couch potato." I don't even know what that means.

Samantha: What she's saying is your mouth goes a lot faster than your brain does and there's no time for your brain to catch up. Which proves my point.

Eddiot: Yeah, I guess it does. I totally would have accidentally dropped it to Stanley, but why'd you tell Brooklyn if you didn't want people to know?

Samantha: I had to tell someone, in case I had to pull it out. I wasn't telling Topher, Trinity or Stanley, and I couldn't tell you in case you accidentally blabbed, which left Brooklyn.

Eddiot: And she kept it, even last night, which kinda makes me think she was being serious about you not taking her to the four.

Samantha: You're gonna believe her after one conversation when I've been behind you the whole time? If anything, her keeping the idol secret and trying to vote me out anyway proves you can't trust her, because if I'd played my idol, Jamie would have gone anyway. Did she care? Nope, she let them walk right into it.

Eddiot: Well, she was like, "If Samantha was gonna take me, she wouldn't have talked about voting me out."

Samantha: No, do you remember what I said there? I was worried that she'd be emotional and not be able to get rid of Jamie. And what has happened since then? Final six? She voted with Jamie. Final five? Oh, she voted with Jamie. Both rounds since then, so I was definitely right to be worried.

Eddiot: Oh.... yeah, that makes sense.

Samantha: You can't let Brooklyn just get into your head like that. Remember, she lied and said you were getting the votes. She lied to you. She wrote my name down. She's been trying to play to the Jury and she's going to be dangerous for us. You know you can't trust her now, no matter what she says.

Eddiot: Oh... well dammit, now I don't know who to believe.

Samantha: Only one of us has never betrayed you, never lied to you, and never written down the name of one of our alliance members, except when faced with no other option. Think about that.

Eddiot: Hmmm... yeah, I guess I should.

Samantha: If Brooklyn hasn't been loyal to us, we have no reason to be loyal to her.

Eddiot: Yeah, I guess... I'mma walk that way now.

(Eddiot walks away, looking confused.)

"mitra"

- Dammit, camera people, now I don't know what to do! This whole "she said, she said" stuff is too smart for my dumb brain, dude. (laughs) The stuff Brooklyn said makes sense, but so does the stuff Samantha said! Brooklyn protected me, which was super dope and I like her heaps, but... Samantha was like, "I knew you'd accidentally blab so I didn't tell you" and I totes probably would have, and then she was like "Brooklyn lied to you, bro" and then it was like "Ohhh yeahhh!" Brooklyn did tell me that I was getting the votes and I didn't. So like, when you look at all the stuff, Samantha was more loyal to me, but Brooklyn went out of her way to protect me... even though she lied, and even though she was kinda more loyal to Jamie the last couple of times and she still kinda lied to him too. I like Brooklyn more, but... I just dunno. Who am I meant to believe?

(The camera then focuses on Samantha, who has a satisfactory smile.)

"mitra"

- I'm not surprised Brooklyn's trying to get a shot at me again. If I were her, I'd do the same, but if she's expecting me to roll over and die... I'm not gonna do that. Eddiot's a bit of a worry because he believed most of what she said and I think he's sort of coming around to her again. I'd like to think I could rely on Eddiot's vote, but he found out I didn't tell him about the idol and started to doubt whether I was really taking Brooklyn to the finals. Of course I wasn't, but if he figures that out, her flips are justified. My next move was to discredit Brooklyn, paint her as two-faced and untrustworthy. I love the girl, but from a strategic point that wasn't hard to do at all. I mean, she kept my idol secret but led Jamie right into voting for me, so that's the textbook definition of being a two-faced player of both sides, and when Eddiot saw that, I got back into his head. I told him that I'd been loyal and never voted out our alliance members unless there was no other choice, which is statistically true, and that we have no loyalty to Brooklyn if she doesn't to us. Painting that she didn't wasn't that hard, because she lied to Eddiot and wrote my name down. I am a little worried he'll still go with her, though, because he likes her a lot and a conversation got his head swirling. I'm gonna have to keep tabs on him the next couple of days.

Reward Challenge
Jeff: Come on in, guys!

(The final four walk in and stand on their mat.)

Jeff: You guys ready for today's reward challenge?

Castaways: YES!

Jeff: For today's challenge, you'll stand on an angled beam while balancing a ball. At regular intervals, you'll move further down the beam, which will make it harder to balance. If the ball falls off, or you fall off the beam, you're out. Last person standing with their ball wins. Wanna know what you're playing for?

Castaways: Yes!

Jeff: In addition to the Temptation, which could be very valuable at this stage, you'll be taken away to have a ngiht of luxury. This includes a three course dinner, a spa, and at the end of it all, some fresh clothes and a bed. That's right, for the first time in thirty-six days, the winner of this challenge gets a bed to sleep in! Worth playing for?

Castaways: Yes!

Jeff: We'll draw for spots and then we'll get started.

(The castaways are awaiting Jeff's signal.)

Jeff: For the Temptation and a night of luxury... Survivors ready? GO!

Challenge Summary:
 * The castaways all last for about fifteen minutes, including moving down the beam a couple of times. Kendra is the first to lose her balance, as she loses track of the ball and falls off the beam.
 * The other three last another fifteen minutes, before Samantha falls off the narrow beam, leaving a final two of Brooklyn and Eddiot.
 * The two of them go for another twenty minutes, both moving down the beam comfortably and keeping track of their balls. Eddiot's ball begins to move, but he saves it. Brooklyn steadies her ball, too. In the end...


 * Eddiot's ball goes on the run again, and he is unable to save it without slipping off the beam. This gives Brooklyn the win. '

Jeff: BROOKLYN WINS REWARD!

Brooklyn: Woooooo!

(Samantha rolls her eyes as Brooklyn celebrates, while Eddiot looks excited for her. There is a timeskip and the castaways go back on their mat.)

Jeff: Brooklyn, come on over!

(Brooklyn is applauded as she goes over and stands next to Jeff.)

Jeff: This is your third Temptation win, and it could not have come with a better reward, I'll give you the envelope. (he hands it to her) In addition, you're having a night of luxury, but dinner and bed is no fun with just one person. Who's coming with you?

Brooklyn: Eddiot, you ready for dinner and spa with your best friend?

Eddiot: WOOOOOOOOOOO!

(Eddiot runs over and hugs Brooklyn, even taking Probst by surprise by pulling him in for a bro-hug.)

Jeff: (laughs) Alright, you two. Head out behind us and the boat will come and pick you up.

(The two of them head out.)

Jeff: Kendra, Samantha, I have nothing for you. You guys can head back to camp. I'll see you at the immunity challenge.

(Kendra and Samantha leave the challenge area.)

Reward
The camera picks up, with jovial music accompanying the shots, as the boat speeds towards the resort. The two disembark eagerly, with Eddiot running inside and looking around.

Eddiot: I freaking love spas, and on my last reward I got one, too! So this is awesome!

(Eddiot immediately jumps into the spa and lets out a relaxed sigh. Brooklyn follows in a ltitle more slowly, laughing as she climbs in beside him, letting out the same relaxed sigh.)

Brooklyn: I can't wait for the three courses! I wonder what we're gonna get?

Eddiot: Food is food! As long as it fits in my mouth and tastes good, I'm happy!

Brooklyn: True, true. This is gonna be such a fun night, just us, a spa and a bed... no Samantha to get in our heads and nobody to bother us about anything. No freaking rice, no collecting papayas, just a spa and some relaxation and some delicious food!

Eddiot: That sounds like a dream day for me! I've eaten so many freaking papayas, man, and they're delicious but I'm glad to have a break.

Brooklyn: Me too! Honestly, they taste nice and all but after eating them constantly for over a momth I don't think I could eat another as long as I live. (She moves to the end of the spa, shakes off her wet hands and grabs the Temptation envelope, which she had previously set beside the spa) Let's see what this crazy thing says, huh?

Eddiot: Yeah, get it out of the way and then we can have some fun, and then I'mma hunt these resort people down and find out when the food is coming! (laughs)

Brooklyn: You do that!

(Brooklyn opens her Temptation, takes one look at it, pauses for a moment, then begins laughing hysterically.)

Brooklyn: (laughing) Oh, God, no! Not happening!

Eddiot: (laughing) What? What is it?

(Brooklyn, laughing, shows Eddiot the Temptation.)

YOU MAY CHANGE THE FINAL TWO TO A FINAL THREE

BUT

YOU MUST SIT OUT OF WHAT WILL BE THE FINAL IMMUNITY CHALLENGE

Eddiot: Ohhhh.

Brooklyn: I am not taking this. No way.

Eddiot: Wait, so there's only two people going to the end now?

Brooklyn: Yep! And I'm not changing that. Giving Samantha another reason to come after me guns blazing? No thanks. At least in a final two I have a better shot of getting there.

Eddiot: What if I voted with you?

Brooklyn: I'd still have to go to fire, against Kendra or Samantha I'm not sure, but I wouldn't want to take a risk in the fire challenge. So... I'm not taking it,

Eddiot: Alrighty!

Brooklyn: Get this evil thing away from me! (she puts the envelope underwater) Drooooowwwn!

Eddiot: (laughs) It's that bad, huh?

Brooklyn: Yeah, if I sit out the Final Immunity Challenge, forget it, I'm as good as gone, even if Samantha has to see to that herself. (She takes the soaked envelope out of the water, tears the soaking paper, gets out of the spa and puts it in the trash.) Goodbye, evil Temptation!

(Brooklyn heads back to the spa and sits, content, as the camera cuts to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- I took one look at that Temptation and threw it in the trash. There is nothing on this Earth that would have me even considering it. I'm in enough danger as is: if I sit out of the challenge and make it a final three, I might have Eddiot's backing, but Samantha will think I've got some huge advantage and orchestrate my elimination in a fire tie, even if she has to see to it herself. The only way I could guarantee safety is by winning immunity, and even then I'd be in a firemaking tie, so I'm not leaving my game to chance. Knowing it's a final two now actually puts me at ease a bit, because I can use that to my advantage with Samantha. Eddiot's smarter than she thinks he is, he knows what's going on, and the likelihood of Kendra or Eddiot taking Samantha in a final two situation is slim to none. Kendra knew she was being manipulated and I doubt she'd fall for it again, and if she did, Samantha would come off as the world's most horrible person, so I doubt it'd be good for her. Having me in the final three suits better for anyone, 'cause everyone gets a fighting chance at making the last spot without winning immunity. There's hope for me yet and I'm so excited.

After this, Eddiot hops out and starts looking around for the waiting staff, but there is no need as they quickly come to him and Brooklyn to state that the first course, bruschetta, will be arriving soon, and asks if they want anything to drink.

Eddiot: (in the worst imitation of a British accent ever) The lady and I will have some raspberry lemonade, sir.

(The waiter walks away. Brooklyn turns to Eddiot and starts laughing.)

Brooklyn: What was that?

Eddiot: (laughs) Just me having fun!

Brooklyn: Well, don't give up your day job, okay? (giggles) You dork.

Eddiot: Yeah, but you love me!

Brooklyn: I do! I wouldn't have survived this long without you making me laugh.

(The two of them sit down at the provided table and the waiter returns with the raspberry lemonade, pouring each of them a glass, and notifying them that the food will come shortly. He then disappears again.)

Eddiot: What even is bruschetta? I've never heard of it.

Brooklyn: You'll love it, it's delicious.

Eddiot: Cool! (laughing) Hey, want me to make a pirate hat out of this big-ass napkin?

Brooklyn: ...You know how to make a pirate hat but you can't solve a puzzle?

Eddiot: Uh... yeah, because making a pirate hat isn't boring! Watch.

(Eddiot takes his napkin and folds it until he makes a pirate hat, which he then puts on his head.)

Eddiot: (in his best pirate voice)I Yarrrrr! I am the great.. uh... Eddiotbeard! And I am the most scariest pirate in all the land! I demand you give me a million dollars!

Brooklyn: Oh, no, but I don't have a million dollars! Whatever can I do?

Eddiot: Yarrr, then the great Eddiotbeard demands that you simply declare him the bestest most scariest, most awesomest pirate to ever walk the Earth... and give me half you dessert! (laughs)

Brooklyn: (laughs) You may have a quarter of my dessert.

Eddiot: A fair trade, as long as you say the words!

Brooklyn: (smirks) You are the bestest, most scariest, most awesomest pirate to ever walk the Earth.

Eddiot: Yarrrrr, that I am!

(The two of them laugh, as the waiter comes out with their first course and presents it to them, shooting Eddiot a quizzical look before heading back.)

Eddiot: (looking down at the bruschetta) ...It's tomato bread.

Brooklyn: Yeah, and it's delicious!

Eddiot: (taking a bite) Yeah, it tastes really good, but... why not call it tomato bread?

Brooklyn: Because bruschetta sounds fancy, I guess. (laughs as she takes a bite of hers)

Eddiot: Yeah, some fancy rich dude walks into a restaurant and is like, (in his poor imitation of a British accent) "I will have the bruschetta."

Brooklyn: (giggles) That accent is terrible but so funny.

Eddiot: Yeah, you're right... bruschetta does sound fancier. Imagine that same rich dude going in and saying "I will have your finest' tomato bread."

Brooklyn: (shrieks with laughter) Eddiot, seriously, you're killing me over here.

Eddiot: Don't die! That's not allowed. Although if you did, I guess I could have all your dessert.

Brooklyn: (mock offense) Glad to know a dessert is worth more than me!

(The two of them finish their bruschetta and soon, they are given the main course, which is a mozzarella-stuffed chicken breast. Both of them delight in this, as Brooklyn says she has been craving cheese for a while, and Eddiot is excited to have chicken. They continue to laugh and joke throughout the main course, which is eventually finished. This is followed by dessert, which is a huge piece of red velvet cake.)

Brooklyn: That... is one huge piece of cake.

Eddiot: All the more for me to eat!

Brooklyn: Still want a quarter?

Eddiot: Yarrrr! Hand it over!

(Brooklyn gives him a quarter of the cake, which Eddiot subsequently demolishes, finishing well before Brooklyn despite his extra cake.)

Eddiot: That was delicious!

Brooklyn: (laughs as she takes a bite) Are you sure you even gave your brain time to register that you were eating a cake?

Eddiot: Yeah, it was amazing!

(Brooklyn soon finishes her cake and the waiter comes back, clears their plates, and says he'll show them up to their rooms shortly.)

Eddiot: Hey, there's a pool table! Want a game?

Brooklyn: Sure!

(The two of them go over to the pool table and pick up the cues. Brooklyn sets out the balls and gives Eddiot first turn. He immediately hits the 8-ball into one of the holes and dabs. Brooklyn laughs.)

Brooklyn: (giggles) That's not how you play pool!

Eddiot: Maybe not, but I made you laugh, didn't I?

Brooklyn: Oh, you definitely did.

(The waiter comes back and shows them up to their room. When they get there, they are amazed to discover a bathroom.)

Eddiot: Dude, Brooklyn, there's a bathroom!

Brooklyn: There's a shower!

Eddiot: Oh, ladies first!

Brooklyn: Gladly! This is amazing.

(Brooklyn walks into the bathroom, shuts the door and then the sound of running water is heard.)

Brooklyn: Eddiot, this is incredible!

Eddiot: Don't use all the hot water!

(As Eddiot kicks back and relaxes on the bed, the camera cuts to his confessional.)

"mitra"

- Wooo! I love you, camera people! No homo to all the guy camera people, but this is awesome! You guys always have dope rewards but this one is super dope! I had the best meal ever, there was an awesome spa, a pool table, and we get to the bedroom and it's a double bed and there's a shower! And I'm spending the whole night with Brooklyn! I could not have more fun on this reward if I tried, dudes. Like, Brooklyn is my best friend out here even though she lied to me the last two times- I'm gonna ask her about that later if I don't forget- and so spending a whole night together is awesome. I just can't wait to get in that shower, and I can't wait to sleep in an awesome bed!

(The camera next picks up as Brooklyn comes out of the shower.)

Brooklyn: That was amazing!

Eddiot: My turn!

(Eddiot goes into the shower. The water is heard running.)

Eddiot: YESSSSSS! This is amazing!

(Brooklyn smiles and lies back on the bed, relaxing. Shortly afterward, Eddiot comes out of the shower, looks at the empty space in the bed, and laughs. With a running start, he jumps towards the bed, dabs in mid-air, and lands.)

Eddiot: Woo!

Brooklyn: That's some impressive skill!

Eddiot: You know it! Hey, can I ask something?

Brooklyn: Sure.

Eddiot: Why'd you lie to me last night and tell me I was getting the votes?

Brooklyn: So Samantha would play the idol on you, if she played it at all, and I could get her voted out. It was the only way I could do it.

Eddiot: Samantha said that made you two-faced.

Brooklyn: Of course she's going to say that. Listen, I promised to protect you, and you know I've had your back since day one. If I had to risk Jamie going home anyway to keep my promise to you, I was gonna do that.

Eddiot: Samantha also said that she was right to think about turning on you because you were, like, all emotional about Jamie.

Brooklyn: I was voting Jamie out at fourth. I'd already made the deal with Kendra, you can ask her yourself. Eddiot, you can't let Samantha get to you. I need to know that I can rely on you. I care a lot about you, and I've always protected you.

Eddiot: Yeah, I guess you have! Plus, like, you're super fun. And I guess you never wrote my name down, and if Samantha was gonna vote you out, you totally had every right to vote her out.

Brooklyn: Would you still save me over Samantha?

Eddiot: Yeah, sure. I'll save you if it comes down to you guys.

Brooklyn: Thanks, hon. I really appreciate that.

(The two of them relax on the bed together. Brooklyn wraps her arms around Eddiot for a hug. The camera focuses on Eddiot, before cutting to his confessional.)

"mitra"

- Alright, camera people, I just got a hug from Brooklyn and it was awesome! Okay, seriously though, we had a great day and I asked her about the lie thing. She told me it was 'cause she wanted to protect me again, and I think it's dope she's protecting me so much. When I asked her about Jamie, she was like, "Nah, I was voting Jamie out next" and if that's right, then what Samantha said isn't right. Man, everyone's, like, trying so hard to win. I told Brooklyn I'd vote for Samantha if it was between the two of them, and I'm gonna do that, 'cause Brooklyn is my best friend out here. It's kinda freaky how hard she and Samantha are gunning for each other, though, like... they're seriously trying so hard to win. I'm, like, not even trying that hard to, but I still want to. I'm just happy chilling and doing whatever my friends ask me to do. But man, it's making me think, should I do something else? Like, these two know how to play the game and they're going super hard, so maybe that's what you're meant to do. (shrugs) Meh, I'll think about it later. I'm having too much of a fun time right now.

Camp
The camera picks up on Kendra and Samantha as they return back from camp and Samantha initiates conversation.

Samantha: That was a tough challenge!

Kendra: (avoiding eye contact) Yeah.

Samantha: Seriously, when we got down to the narrower parts, I was screwed.

Kendra: Yeah, how unfortunate.

Samantha: (noticing Kendra's coldness) Do you want a papaya?

Kendra: Sure.

Samantha: Okay, I'll go grab one.

Kendra: Cool.

(Samantha walks off to find papayas, looking back at Kendra with concern as the camera cuts to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- When we got back to camp, Kendra was giving me the cold shoulder. Luckily she's so forthcoming with her emotions, so I can easily tell when she's mad, and I know that Brooklyn must have gotten to her. With Eddiot being taken on the reward, things aren't looking too good for me. Eddiot has always been a little closer to Brooklyn and I think he's a 50/50 at this point as to where he'd go. That makes Kendra's vote important to me, and if Brooklyn has gotten to her, it's going to be a hard vote to get. I manipulated her once, but I think I'm going to have to turn the guilt tripping up to a hundred to get myself back in contention here.

(Samantha comes back with the papayas, and Kendra ignores her when she tries to make eye contact. Samantha cuts open the papayas and gives one to Kendra, who takes it without looking at or speaking to her.)

Samantha: What's wrong?

(Kendra ignores her.)

Samantha: Kendra?

(Kendra ignores her again.)

Samantha: Kendra, what did I-

Kendra: You know what you did! You manipulated me! You got me to open up to you and used my weaknesses against me to get me to vote Jamie! You never cared! I'm not talking to you anymore!

Samantha: ...What? Kendra...

Kendra: Don't act innocent!

Samantha: I haven't done anything. I wasn't trying to use your weaknesses against you. I was being a friend to you, after you went on that drunken rant. I was genuinely worried about you. Who else was? Jamie? Nope. Brooklyn? Nope. Eddiot? Nope. Just me. I went to you, as a friend, not to exploit weaknesses.

Kendra: Likely story.

Samantha: I have been nothing but nice to you! I opened up to you about my brother and everything. Who told you I was being manipulative? Brooklyn? If you just believed her because of one conversation after that would really hurt my feelings.

Kendra: Stop it! You're just trying to manipulate me again!

Samantha: (acting even more upset) I'm a high school teacher, not a monster! I went to comfort you because I've seen so many people in your situation, but nope, apparently I'm just a heartless manipulator. I was just trying to do the same for you because you clearly needed a friend, but I guess it's not appreciated if. I related to you, and I've helped my students through similar situations like this. I told you about my brother. You know how many other people know about that? One. I really thought we were friends, Kendra. But all it takes is one conversation from Brooklyn and you suddenly think I'm this monster and all those conversations, all those times we bonded, and all those times I was there for you, are just manipulative game moves. That really hurts my feelings.

(She turns away as if she's going to cry. Kendra takes the bait and walks over.)

Kendra: N-no! I didn't say you were a monster!

Samantha: What else would I be if I was just stringing you along like this? Isn't it possible that Brooklyn is the one manipulating you, when she's the one on the bottom? What does Brooklyn know about you? Nothing. Was Brooklyn there when you were upset? No. What judge is Brooklyn to know what you're thinking?

Kendra: Samantha, I'm sorry...

Samantha: I can't believe you thought I'd do that to you. Maybe everyone was right. If all it takes is one conversation from someone on the bottom, who doesn't know anything about your personal life, to believe that your friend is just a manipulative demon, then you're going to lose. If this is how you treat friends, Kendra, it's no wonder you don't have any.

Kendra: (starting to tear up) I'm sorry! I shouldn't have believed Brooklyn!

Samantha: No, you shouldn't have, but you did. You know what hurts the most? You got upset when your friends betrayed you, and you know exactly how it feels for people to be talking crap about you. Yet, you just did the exact same to me. And you called Shivani a bitch for not playing her idol, and you ignored Stanley when he wanted to talk to you, and you just accused me of being this manipulator because you voted Jamie, when I was trying to help you win,  because the person on the bottom told you I was and you wanted a scapegoat to blame. I guess that's what I get for trying to be a friend to you.

Kendra: (bawling) I'm so sorry! I am so, so, sorry!

Samantha: I should just go.

(Samantha walks away.)

Kendra: Come back! Please!

Samantha: No, I'm just a heartless emotional manipulator, remember? You don't want to talk to me. Have fun with your new best friend who doesn't know anything about you.

Kendra: (running after her, sobbing) Samantha, wait! Stop, please! I'm so sorry!

Samantha: You really hurt my feelings, Kendra.

Kendra: I know, I'm sorry! I wish I hadn't believed Brooklyn. You're right, she doesn't know me, she doesn't know what I think or how I feel, and she's just on the bottom so she's desperate.

Samantha: Yep.

Kendra: I really care about our friendship, I was sincere about it. I really appreciated everything you did for me.

Samantha: Do you call everyone, whose friendship you appreciate and care about, a manipulator?

Kendra: I'm so sorry! I can't believe I fell for that! Are you mad at me?

Samantha: Yes.

Kendra: I swear I care about you and our friendship! What can I do? How can I prove that to you?

Samantha: Well... you really upset me, but if you were to vote Brooklyn out, it would show that you were really sincere.

Kendra: Done. I'll vote Brooklyn. I swear. I can't believe I fell for the tricks that manipulator was spinning.

Samantha: I can't believe it, either.

Kendra: Please come back and talk to me. I promise I'll vote Brooklyn, I swear I appreciate everything.

Samantha: Okay.

(Acting reluctant and hurt still, Samantha walks back over to the fire to eat her papaya. The camera focuses on Kendra, who looks incredibly guilty.)

"mitra"

- I feel awful! I shouldn't be allowed to have friends. I'm just an awful judge of everything and everyone rightfully hates me. I can't believe I fell for the lies Brooklyn was spinning. Samantha was so right, Brooklyn doesn't know my life, or how I think, and Samantha's been there for me for a lot of stuff. I just hope I haven't ruined the friendship because it means a lot to me. (she starts tearing up again) Samantha was right! I'm such a horrible person to all my friends! She was so upset, so hurt by what I said- no, what Brooklyn said- and she wasn't going to talk to me anymore. If the only way I can prove to her that I was sincere is by voting Brooklyn out, then I'm going to do just that. I can't believe Brooklyn would do that. When I was on the bottom, I never resorted to anything like that. She very nearly cost me a friendship.

(The camera then focuses on Samantha, who continues her manipulative act before flashing a small smile when Kendra isn't looking.)

"mitra"

- That's that taken care of! (laughs) Give me an Emmy, seriously. When I was losing Kendra, I knew I had to step it up and now, I should have Kendra's vote on my side now to at least make it a tie against Brooklyn if Eddiot doesn't budge, and then I should be able to beat her pretty easily. That worked way better than I expected and I don't really care if I overstepped any lines. It's the final four of Survivor. Ethics don't exist. You have to do every single thing you can to get votes on your side. It just so happens one of those things I had to do was manipulate an emotionally fragile person until she was literally running to me crying for forgiveness. That's the difference between me and a lot of players. Most people would stop at gate of immorality, but I'll open it and walk right through. Now I have a fallback if I don't win immunity tomorrow and I can still make it to the end, so... I'm happy.

Immunity Challenge
Jeff: Come on in, guys!

(The castaways walk in and stand on their mats.)

Jeff: You guys ready for today's immunity challenge?

Castaways: Yes!

Jeff: Alright, Kendra, I'll take it back.

(Kendra has the necklace taken off by the time Jeff gets to her. Jeff takes it and puts it back on the pole.)

Jeff: Immunity, once again, back up for grabs. For today's challenge, you'll be using a fork to maneuver discs through a wobbly maze and stacking them on a platform. There are twelve discs in total, all having to be stacked one on top of the other. If your stack falls over, you start over. The first person to have all twelve stacked and have it hold for three seconds wins immunity. Now, before we get to that, Brooklyn, there's the matter of your Temptation. What are you going to do with it?

Brooklyn: Jeff, I'm absolutely not taking it.

Jeff: Alright, then I'll take it back... where is it?

Brooklyn: I kinda threw it in the trash. (laughs)

Jeff: (smirks) You definitely didn't want it.

Brooklyn: Didn't even think about it for a second.

Jeff: The Temptation is out of play and in the trash in a Grenadian resort. With that, we'll draw for spots and get started.

(The castaways are awaiting Jeff's signal.)

Jeff: For immunity and a guaranteed spot in the final three... Survivors ready? GO!

Challenge Summary:
 * The challenge starts out reasonably even as all the castaways get off to quick starts and their stacks go well. Eddiot gets to five before his sixth one is stacked unevenly and topples it, He starts again, but doesn't make it much further than the sixth on each try.
 * The other three keep on track, with Kendra leading slightly, then Samantha, then Brooklyn. As they get to the ninth disc, the pressure gets to Kendra and she goes a little too fast, toppling her entire stack.
 * This leaves a showdown between Samantha and Brooklyn, as they stack their tenth and eleventh discs. Brooklyn tries to speed up a little. In the end, it comes down to a couple of seconds, and...


 * Brooklyn is unable to close the gap. Samantha stacks her disc first and Brooklyn holds her breath, hoping it will topple in the three seconds. It doesn't, and Samantha wins.

Jeff: SAMANTHA WINS IMMUNITY!

Samantha: WOOOOO!

(Brooklyn sighs, putting her face in her hands, as Samantha has a smile on her face. Eddiot looks at Brooklyn sadly. There is a timeskip as the castaways are back on the mat.)

Jeff: Samantha, come on over!

(Samantha walks over and Jeff puts the immunity necklace on her.)

Jeff: Congratulations! You are guaranteed a spot in the Final Three and will live to see Day 38. As for the rest of you, your quest is in danger of falling two days short, as one of you becomes the seventeenth person voted out and the eighth member of the Jury. You have the afternoon to figure out who it's going to be. Grab your stuff, head back to camp. I'll see you at Tribal.

(Samantha's facial expression changes as the castaways head back to camp. Where one would normally be happy upon winning immunity, Samantha is frowning. The camera focuses is on this, before fading out.)

Pre-Tribal
(Following Samantha's win, the four castaways return to camp.)

Kendra: Congratulations, Samantha!

Samantha: Thanks.

Brooklyn: Yeah, you really deserved it.

Samantha: Thanks.

(Samantha, however, is in no mood to celebrate as she nonchalantly hangs her necklace on the shelter.)

Eddiot: (noticing this) Bruh, why are you sad? You just won.

Samantha: Yeah, but Jeff said I was guaranteed Day 38 and didn't say final immunity or Final Tribal Council. It's Day 37 and we just had an immunity challenge. It's a final two. me.

"mitra"

- When I was heading into immunity today, I thought for sure it was the final challenge and so did everyone else. But nope, I win and I'm guaranteed Day 38. No mention of Final Immunity, Final Tribal... so it's obvious that we've still got another one to go and it's a Final Two. I'm pissed. Seriously. I played perfectly for a Final Three, I had my goats set up, I was pretty much going to just knock Brooklyn off and be done with it. The fact it's a Final Two changes everything now. I may have to re-shift my strategy and keep Brooklyn around. I don't want to be trapped into a corner where I have to win immunity to get out, and my worry is taking Brooklyn out now will do that. (sigh) If Brooklyn ends up getting to the end because of this, I swear to God... but I don't know if Brooklyn going now is in my best interest anymore.

Brooklyn: Well, it's a Final Two, then.

Kendra: Yep. No way would final immunity be on Day 37.

Brooklyn: Well, Kendra, I'll be honest. I'm voting for you.

Kendra: I was gonna vote for you, too.

Brooklyn: 'Kay, that settles it.

(The two of them go separate paths and there is a timeskip. The camera picks up on Brooklyn as she goes to Eddiot.)

Brooklyn: So, Eddiot, are you still gonna vote alongside me, for Kendra?

Eddiot: Yep! That's what I'm planning on. I'm gonna listen to Kendra, though. Like, I'm not just gonna ignore her and be all, "Sorry I'm voting for you so I'm not gonna listen" because that would be level one hundred douche.

Brooklyn: Are you saying you might change your mind?

Eddiot: I mean, I'm gonna listen to what she has to say, so...

Brooklyn: I hope you don't change your mind. I've always been loyal to you, and we were going to vote Samantha out together. I've never written your name down and I don't plan on it. You and I have been so tight since day one.

Eddiot: I know, fam. I've been loyal to you, too. And like I said a billion times, it's super dope that you stopped them from voting for me last time.

Brooklyn: Yeah, because I care about you a lot. We've been by each other's side the whole game.

Eddiot: Yeah, we have so many dope memories together. Like, remember when I found that Idol Necklace and you nearly died because I just pulled it out in the middle of camp? (giggles)

Brooklyn: I panicked so much! What about that time you ran halfway across the camp just to check with me if you were allowed to talk to Jensen?

Eddiot: Oh, yeah, that was so funny. I really did not know the game.

Brooklyn: But now here you are on Day 37! You know what my favourite moment of us is, though? When I held you to let those little kids score on the Grenadian school reward.

Eddiot: You mean when you cheated? (laughs)

Brooklyn: Eddiot, they were little kids and you were being unfair! (giggles) I call it evening the odds,

Eddiot: Tomayto, tomahto, cheating is cheating! (laughs) We so did have some fun.

Brooklyn: Yeah, we did!

Eddiot: I like you a lot, Brooklyn. No hetero, though. I just genuinely think you're awesome.

Brooklyn: (laughs) Ditto, and no hetero to you, either.

Eddiot: I'm pretty sure I'm gonna vote Kendra, 'cause I promised, but if it changes I'll tell you, alright?

Brooklyn: Thanks, babe.

Eddiot: Hey! You said no hetero! (giggles)

Brooklyn: That was no hetero, you dork. (giggles) I'm gonna go talk to Samantha.

Eddiot: Alright, bye... Harlem. (giggles)

Brooklyn: Oh my God, I'm never gonna forget that.

(Brooklyn walks off, a smile on her face, before the camera cuts to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- With Eddiot, I'm about eighty to eighty-five percent sure that he's going to vote on my side. I know he's picked up the game, so there's a chance he could look at me, then Kendra and Samantha, and think "I have a better chance against them" and turn on me. I don't think that's likely, but Eddiot has proven in the late stage of the game he knows what's going on, so it's possible. Being alone with him, I wanted to play up our personal relationship, because we've been very tight since the first day. I wanted him to remember how much fun we had, how much I cared, and I hope that my bond with him over the past thirty-seven days is going to at least get me to fire. After I talk to Samantha, I'm going straight to a path in the woods to practice. I've come too far to let myself go home now, and the fact it's a final two is giving me another card to play.

(Following this, the camera picks up as Brooklyn walks over to Samantha.)

Brooklyn: So, still thinking of voting for me?

Samantha: Of course I'm thinking about it, but the fact it's Final Two could change everything.

Brooklyn: It's not "could change", it's "does change." Listen, I know you played with the mindset of getting me out at fourth and steamrolling that easy win, but as much as you hate it, you need me right now.

Samantha: Oh?

Brooklyn: Yes. Everyone knows you and I are the two biggest threats to win. If I go, there's nothing protecting you. You'd need immunity to get to the end. Don't just think Kendra and Eddiot are slam dunks to take you. Sure, Eddiot's been loyal, but he's smarter than you think and he's picking up the game. It wouldn't take much for him to figure out that Kendra's going to get less votes than you. As for Kendra, I know you've manipulated her, but all the manipulation in the world won't steer Kendra away from the fact Eddiot is probably her only chance at even have a shot at jury votes.

Samantha: I've been thinking about that a lot, what this shift means. Part of me does think I should take you, but if you ended up winning immunity it'd be difficult.

Brooklyn: I know, but having a shot of making the end without immunity instead of being screwed completely without it is a better scenario, don't you think?

Samantha: I've been thinking about what would happen with the final two in all situations and I have to take challenges into account, because I know my strengths and weaknesses. Look, I want to win. You know that.

Brooklyn: Everyone and their mother knows it. I want to win, too. So does everyone here.

Samantha: Exactly, which is why I have to think about everything. I'd be kidding myself if I said I wanted you anywhere near the Final Tribal, or if I wanted to go against you. Kendra and Eddiot are much easier beats.

Brooklyn: I know, but you know better than anyone you have to think long-term as well. And if you just go on the fact that I'm a more difficult beat, you are going to have to rely on immunity. If you get a balance challenge? Forget about it. I'm practicing fire, but I think you really need to make it a 3-1 here. You can't give any chance for Kendra and Eddiot to be the final three with you.

Samantha: I'll think about it.

Brooklyn: I hope you think things through completely.

(Brooklyn walks away, and the camera focuses on her smile as the camera cuts to her confessional.)

"mitra"

- When I talked to Samantha, I wanted to get into her head that the change to final two meant she couldn't play the way she was with a final three. The fact of the matter is Eddiot knows this game now, and Kendra is wise enough to realise Eddiot is her best chance at getting votes, so they'll take each other. As much of a powerhouse as Samantha is in challenge, her Achilles heel is anything involving balance, so if she got to a balance challenge, Eddiot wins and takes Kendra. I pushed to her that, although she doesn't want me there, the best chance she has of getting to the end without immunity is having me in the final three. That way, we were both in with a 50/50 shot. Then again, this is the woman who manipulated Kendra and has spent an entire afternoon alone with her. I don't know the kind of hold they have on each other, or if Samantha would be willing to sacrifice that. I'm definitely practicing fire, but I'm thinking the final two means Samantha's vote isn't as locked as it was just this morning.

(There is a small timeskip, and the camera picks up again as Kendra is approaching Samantha.)

Kendra: Hi Samantha! So, you know Brooklyn is voting for me, right?

Samantha: Yeah, she mentioned that.

Kendra: You're going to vote for her, though, right? That was always the plan. I know it's a final two now, but that should still be it. Do you think Eddiot will vote with us? Because-

Samantha: Can I get a word in?

Kendra: Sorry, I'm just stressing. My name's on the block and I don't have an idol or immunity, and I know people are voting me, so...

Samantha: I know exactly what that feels like. Trust me.

Kendra: So are you going to vote with me?

Samantha: Obviously I'm pissed that it's a final two now and not a final three, but the fact remains Brooklyn is the biggest threat. I just have to think about what's going to happen at the final three.

Kendra: I know the final two changes the whole thing, but I'm seriously going to take you to the final two if I win immunity. I know that I believed Brooklyn before so you might doubt me, but I was going to vote Brooklyn if you didn't win immunity and I'm going to again.We can't let her get ahead! And to be honest, I think it would be really unfair if you complained that I was going to vote you initially then ended up voting me just because it changed to a final two. Like, I'd be so pissed.

Samantha: Are you trying to guilt trip me? Because it's really not going to work.

Kendra: No, I'm just saying you'd be a stupid hypocrite. Why would you even vote me out, anyway? Because you're worried I won't take you? I'll take you, I promise. I swear to God, if I win the final challenge, you're being taken. I won't even listen to Eddiot. I'll ignore everything he says. I promise I'm taking you to the end.

Samantha: Right, right, I did come down hard on you, didn't I?

Kendra: Yeah, you did. I promise I was going to vote Brooklyn anyway, and I'm taking you to the final two. Are you worried I won't win the firemaking tiebreaker and you'll be screwed? Look, I'm going to pracitce as soon as I talk to Eddiot. Hopefully he votes with us, but if he doesn't I can beat Brooklyn in a fire! We could always just vote for Eddiot instead. I could definitely beat him.

Samantha: Nah, not Eddiot. Brooklyn would have a much higher chance of winning the final immunity.

Kendra: Okay, okay, Brooklyn then. Seriously, I can make fire. I know it'll be pressure and I hate pressure, but if I lose I'm going to be pissed off, so I'm going to practice over and over and over until I maker sure I can win. And again, I can't stress this enough and I hope you believe me because I was willing to vote Brooklyn, if I win the final immunity challenge I'm taking you. Okay?

Samantha: Okay.

Kendra: Good, so I hope you vote for Brooklyn. The final two shouldn't change anything.

(Kendra walks away. The camera focuses on her as her confessional is played over the top.)

"mitra"

- So now the vote is officially on me and I have no way of saving myself, no idol, no Jamie, no anything, I really have to get off my ass and fight. It makes no sense for anyone to take Brooklyn and I want that to show. When I went to Samantha, I pointed out that she was going to vote Brooklyn out and she was planning on it before she found out it was a final two. That shouldn't change anything. She keeps saying how much of a threat Brooklyn is, and if she's worried about not getting to the end, I promised I'd take her. That might not be so good because Eddiot would be a way easier win, but I need her to vote with me. Anyway, if I get voted out by Samantha, I'm going to bitch her out so hard because she'll be such a huge hypocrite. She complained when I was gonna vote her, so if she votes me, then that's not fair. I'm going to practice fire as soon as I talk to Eddiot, because if it's 2-2 I need to make sure I can win so Samantha doesn't get scared. I hate pressure so much and it's going to be heaps of pressure, but I need to get to the end! I can't blindside Jamie and have it backfire on me.

(The camera picks up again as Kendra walks over to Eddiot.)

Kendra: Hey, so I know you're probably voting me right now, but can you at least listen to what I have to say?

Eddiot: Yep, I'll listen!

Kendra: So you are voting me?

Eddiot: Well... I promised Brooklyn I wouldn't vote her, but I also said I'd tell her if it changes, so keep talking!

Kendra: You know I'm the only person you can win against, right? People hate me, so you'd get, like, almost all the votes. Brooklyn is going to get heaps of votes because she's played a really good game, and she'll be so hard to beat. Why would you vote Brooklyn and risk her going to the end when you could just take me?

Eddiot: Yeah, I've been thinking about that. Like, people on the Jury could be all, "Ew I hate Kendra, I'm gonna vote Eddiot instead" and then I might end up winning!

Kendra: Exactly! Look, I'm your best chance, you're my best chance, so we should just take each other. You need to get rid of Brooklyn, because if I go, you're going to have no chance. It's Day 37, you can't just float anymore. You have to play for the win!

Eddiot: Well, yeah, I wanna win. I wanna throw this dope party. You'll be invited! So will literally everyone! Even Trinity, although I don't think she'll come because she hates me, so... yeah! But point is, I wanna win, too.

Kendra: So... take... me! I seriosuly don't see how voting for me is going to do you any good when you know that you want to win, you know that the basic concept of Jury voting is "I'm not gonna vote for the person I hate" and you know everyone hates me. Seriously, I know you promised Brooklyn,but she betrayed you twice, so you shouldn't have any loyalty to her. She knows she's on the bottom so she's pulling a whole bunch of. I'm practicing fire and I'm going to keep doing it until I know I can beat her, but I shouldn't have to go to that if you're smart.

Eddiot: I meaaaaannn, you know I'm not smart.

Kendra: Well, yes, true, but I mean, you know that you can beat me, so I shouldn't have to go to fire!

Eddiot: Well, yeah... I'll think about it, okay? And I'll tell you one way or the other.

Kendra: Fine. I'm going to make fire.

(Kendra walks away, heading towards the forest. The camera focuses on her as she sighs, before her confessional is played over the top.)

"mitra"

- I spoke to Eddiot and he'd seriously be stupid not to take me. I mean, he knows he's stupid, but he also knows that I'm the only person he could beat, so it makes no sense to vote Brooklyn. It should be 3-1. Why would you even risk getting rid of the person you have the best chance at beating? He keeps going on about promising Brooklyn and he's been pretty loyal since the start of the game, so I don't know if I have his vote or not. I pushed to him that it's Day 37 and you can't stay loyal forever, plus Brooklyn has betrayed him twice, so he really has no reason to be loyal to her either. I shouldn't have to practice fire but I'm going to anyway. I just can't see a reason why anyone would keep Brooklyn over me.

(The day fades into late afternoon as Samantha and Eddiot meet up with each other in the forest. The camera flashes to Brooklyn and Kendra briefly, who are in separate parts of the forest, practicing fire.)

Samantha: So, who are you thinking of voting?

Eddiot: I'm kinda thinking about it, but you'll vote Brooklyn, I guess.

Samantha: Actually, I'm thinking about it, too. I want to make the end, and it being a final two changes everything.

Eddiot: Well yeah, now there's another challenge. What even happens in a final three challenge, anyway?

Samantha: Basically, the winner has the only vote and they vote someone out. There's no point in the other two people voting because they can only vote for each other.

Eddiot: Ohhhh, so if the other person in the three wins-

Samantha: We can't do anything, yeah.

Eddiot: Well, I have different reasons for wanting to keep both, and I guess you do, too. So... I'll tell you who I'm voting for if you tell me, deal? Obviously we're not gonna vote together for the sake of voting together, right?

Samantha: Nah, final four, not gonna do that. You have a deal I'll tell you who's getting my vote, though.

Eddiot: Cool!

(The two of them go their separate ways. The camera focuses on Samantha, who is deep in thought.)

"mitra"

- I'm still really pissed that it's a final two. Seriously, final three and it's a slam dunk that Brooklyn goes, no question. I played perfectly for that situation, covered all my corners, and now I have to think about the next round, too. As much as I hate it, I am thinking about keeping Brooklyn here. I need to make sure I can get into the end in all scenarios, without having to rely on immunity. Taking her might give me a better shot. Kendra told me over and over she's taking me, but desperate people do desperate things. Can I rely on that? I know I've been able to guilt her in the past- twice, very successfully- and I could hold her promise and the Jury vote over her. As for Eddiot, would he take me? He's been loyal since the first day, but I'm pretty sure even he would understand Kendra is an easy beat. Could I hold loyalty over him? As for Brooklyn, is there any way I could get her to take me to the end, or have Eddiot take her over me? On top of all this, I have to think about the Jury and how they'll perceive me. No doubt I've burned bridges, and if I burn one too many, all this aggressive playing is pointless, but if I play to the Jury, it's pointless if I come in third. It's a huge toss-up. I just need to make sure I have the most options to get to the end.

(Following this, the camera focuses on Eddiot, who is also thinking about the vote.)

"mitra"

- I dunno, camera people! This vote is kinda hard. On one hand, Kendra's like, way easier to beat because everyone hates her. Well, not me, but I'm not voting on the Jury if I make the end. People could go to the voting thing with me and Kendra and be like "I hate Kendra, time to vote Eddiot!" So I'd win and then I'd get to throw a cool party. On the other hand, I kinda promised Brooklyn I'd vote with her, and I really like her. I haven't lied in the game and I kept all my promises, which is a good thing, right? People could go to the voting thing with me and Samantha, or me and Brooklyn, and be like "Eddiot never lied, that's dope, I'mma vote him." I kinda wanna stick to my deal but I also wanna win? So... I guess I'll see which one ends up with me winning and just vote that. There might be a tie, I dunno, 'cause Samantha and I aren't gonna vote together on this, 'cause she's playing to win. Man, everyone's doing that! This vote's gonna be crazy.

The camera shows one last shot of both Brooklyn and Kendra practicing fire, before fading out. The Final Four are then shown walking to Tribal Council.

Tribal Council
(The final four walk into Tribal Council and sit down.)

Jeff: We'll now bring in the members of the Jury: Meiling, Trinity, Topher, Shivani, Ashanda, Stanley, and Jamie, voted out at the last Tribal Council.

(The Jury walk in and sit down.)

Jeff: Let's get things started. Samantha, with only four people left, what was camp like after the immunity challenge today?

Samantha: Well, Jeff, we all thought it would be a final three and that's how we've been playing. But since the immuntiy challenge was today and you never said anything abotu Final Tribal Council, and it's Day 37, we've pretty much all accepted it's a Final Two. So now our strategies have to be rethought, because they're two completely different endings. You have to account for different scenarios now.

Jeff: Eddiot how do things change in final two?

Eddiot: Uh... there's two people instead of three. (laughs) No, seriously, Samantha told me that the winner of the final three challenge is the only person who votes. So now, people are thinking about that and everyone's playing to win. It's pretty much gonna be Kendra or Brooklyn tonight, though. No one's told me I'm getting votes, and they literally said they're voting for each other, so... with my vote, I'm gonna think about the win.

Jeff: So it's pretty much accepted it's Kendra or Brooklyn going tonight.

(Everyone nods.)

Jeff: Kendra, why should they keep you?

Kendra: Because I'm literally the biggest Jury goat in the universe. Just look over there, half of them hate me. Eddiot, I'm the only person you can beat, so you need to take me. And Samantha, you'd be a giant hypocrite if you didn't vote Brooklyn out because that's all you've been talking about for the last couple of days, and you made me promise I'd vote Brooklyn. There's no point in anyone keeping Brooklyn tonight.

Brooklyn: That's BS, Kendra. Come on. Samantha, Eddiot, if you guys take Kendra to three, you're gonna have to win immunity to take the second spot because whoever wins is taking Kendra. If you want a shot at getting to the end without immunity, you have to take me. Yeah, you wouldn't have taken me to the final three, but it's a final two now. So, things are different. Eddiot, I've been loyal to you since day one-

Kendra: Liar. Why did you vote Stanley, then?

Brooklyn: Because although I was loyal to Eddiot, Samantha and Stanley weren't going to be loyal to me. Being loyal doesn't mean being stupid and waiting around to get voted out. Everyone's playing to win, Kendra, so stop grasping at straws.

Kendra: All Samantha has been saying for ages is you're the biggest threat, and you play stupidly, like, you were going to vote Samantha out and leave Jamie and I in the final four.

Brooklyn: ...And you agreed to vote Jamie out in fourth, so don't try and pull the stupid card on me, Kendra, because I'm not having it. Don't you even think about saying you would have voted me out, because you voted Jamie out last Tribal. So don't talk to me about playing stupidly.

Kendra: See, guys? Even Brooklyn's pointing out what a huge goat I am, so you need to take me to the end!

Brooklyn: Can we just vote, Jeff? I'm sick of reiterating the same points. All Kendra's done is just prove to everyone why she needs to be taken out tonight. If you wanna talk about playing stupid, it's leaving your fate in the hands of the immunity necklace.

Jeff: Alright, it is time to vote. Samantha, I can't imagine you're giving immunity up.

Samantha: Nope!

Jeff: Samantha is the only person you cannot vote for. Everybody else is fair game. It is time to vote. Kendra, you're up.

(Kendra walks to the voting urn. Her vote for Brooklyn is revealed to the public.)

"mitra"

- You're the biggest threat and everyone knows it, so if people don't vote you out, they're stupid hypocrites.

(The next person to vote is Eddiot, whose vote is not shown. Brooklyn is up next, and her vote for Kendra is revealed.)

"mitra"

- Sorry, babe, but everything changes in a final two. Voting you is the only shot I have to stay.

(Finally, Samantha goes up to vote. She pauses at the urn, thinks for a moment, and begins to write, the camera fading out as she does so. She is next shown returning to her seat.)

Jeff: I'll go tally the votes.

(Jeff leaves and returns a short time later with the urn.)

Jeff: Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately. I'll read the votes.

First vote...

'''KENDRA. '''(1-0)

'''BROOKLYN. '''One vote Kendra, one vote Brooklyn. (1-1)

'''KENJRA. '''That's two votes Kendra, one vote Brooklyn, one vote left. (2-1)

(Kendra looks at Eddiot and rolls her eyes, while Brooklyn shoots him a grateful smile. All attention turns to Samantha, who gives nothing away as Jeff pulls out the last vote.) 

Seventeenth person voted out of Survivor: Grenada- Temptations and the eighth member of the Jury... '''KENDRA. '''That's three, that's enough, you need to bring me your torch.

(Brooklyn sighs with relief as Kendra immediately turns to Samantha and shoots her a disgusted, venomous look. Kendra furiously gets up to grab her torch.)

Kendra: That's stupid, you're all stupid. Samantha, you hypocritical bitch, everyone was right about you.

(Kendra huffs, then grabs her torch and marches over to Jeff. She slams her torch in the holder, rolling her eyes.)

Jeff: Kendra, the tribe has spoken.

(Kendra doesn't even wait for her torch to be snuffed before heading out of the Tribal Council area, without speaking to or looking at the other castaways. She disappears from view and Jeff turns back to the group.)

Jeff: Well, you have made it to the final three. You have one more challenge and one more Tribal to get through. You all said you're playing for the win, so I have no idea what's going to happen next. Grab your torches, head back to camp. Goodngiht.

(The final three depart the Tribal Council area.)

Voting Confessionals
"mitra"

- Yo, I know you'd be a way easier win but I already promised Brooklyn I wouldn't vote for her. I wanna be the dude who stays to my deals, so, yeah. Bye.

"mitra"

- I need to make sure that I can get to the final two without immunity and I just can't with you there, so you have to go home. You can be mad and call me a hypocrite all you want but fact is, I'm not playing to the Jury if it just gets me third. Thanks for getting me past the final five without using my idol.

Final Words
"mitra"

- I'm so mad. Everyone was so stupid. Brooklyn deserves the win if they're just going to let her through like that. Eddiot's stupid because he knew I was his only chance but he voted me out anyway. I'm less surprised, so I'm less mad. But Samantha? that hypocritical bitch, I hate her so much. She acted like it was the worst thing in the world that I'd vote her out and believe she's a manipulator, then she turns around and boots me? her. She really is a manipulator. Now I look like a stupid idiot for voting Jamie out last Tribal. Ugh, this is the worst way this could possibly end. I hate this.

Night 37
(Following Kendra's elimination, Brooklyn, Eddiot and Samantha return to camp.)

Brooklyn: I am so glad to still be here, you guys!

Eddiot: Yeah, well, I promised I wouldn't vote for you and I didn't.

Brooklyn: And I'm glad for that. Thanks, too, Samantha.

Samantha: No problem.

Brooklyn: I seriously can't thank you guys, enough. I thought I was toast.

"mitra"

- Everything worked out the way I wanted it to today. When I found out it was going to be a final two, I was so relieved because I'm confident that's what saved me. If it was a final three, I was gone, or at least in a tie. I'm so glad Eddiot had my back and Samantha thought Kendra being in the final three would be more dangerous, because now I've got another chance to make the end. When I say "chance", I think that means "I have to win immunity at all costs." Samantha's definitely not taking me, and although I love Eddiot, I have no clue what he'll do now that we're both at the Final Three. So the only way I can ensure I get there is to make sure I win. History isn't on my side with that, since Eddiot and Samantha have both won thrice, but who says history can't be changed?

Eddiot: Yeah, you're welcome, Brooklyn! I just wanted to keep my final three deal, so... yeah! I wasn't gonna vote against you.

Brooklyn: I'm really glad.

Eddiot: Now we're all in the final three, though. So... what now?

Brooklyn: Who knows? I'm just glad to still be here.

Eddiot: And I'm glad you are still!

"mitra"

- This final three is awesome, camera people! I said I was gonna be in the final three with Brooklyn and Samantha when the Guava tribe got together, and now I'm there with them! Kendra was all like "Noooo, don't take me out, if you do you won't win" but I was like "Nah, I wanna stick to my deal!" So I stuck to my deal! It's not like I couldn't have voted Brooklyn out if I wanted to. I mean, I know you're allowed to vote against your alliance because Brooklyn did it that one time, but when I thought about it I was like "Nah, who else in this game has stuck to deals?" I wanted to be that dude, so, yeah! I don't know what I'm gonna do now, though. I don't actually have a deal for the final two, I don't think. It's gonna be hard, 'cause they're both my friends and I'm not sure who I'd want there.

Samantha: Yeah, no way was anyone gonna rely on having to win immunity to get into the top two. This way it's much more open.

Brooklyn: Couldn't agree more!

(As Brooklyn heads off to the shelter, Samantha walks over to Eddiot.)

Samantha: You've got my back if you win immunity tomorrow, right?

Eddiot: Uhhh, sure I guess!

Samantha: You know I've been more loyal to you, right? So if you're playing by loyalty...

Eddiot: Yeah, I know!

Samantha: Great!

(Samantha heads to the shelter, a content smile on her face.)

"mitra"

- I may have pissed Kendra off tonight, but voting her out was the best move for my game, and like I said, if I play for the Jury I'm gonna get third. I didn't come out here and do all this for that to happen. I have no doubt Kendra would have taken Eddiot. She may have promised me final two, but she was desperate and those people do anything. I could have tried my hand at manipulation again but I didn't want to push my luck. Now that she's gone, I feel more confident in my ability to make the end. I don't want to jinx it, but I think I can get to the end in any scenario. Eddiot's been playing a loyal game and I've been more loyal to him, so I'm about 75% that he takes me if he wins final immunity. As for Brooklyn? Anyone might think it's impossible but she's played fairly emotionally in some rounds. She's been close to Eddiot since day one, and if I could convince her that taking Eddiot would be a bad move for their friendship, I might be able to sneak in the back door. Obviously I'm taking Eddiot if I win. I do not want to go up against Brooklyn at the Final Tribal Council, but if she pulls out a win tomorrow, I need to have all bases covered.

Polls- During Episode

Yes No Who is going to become the eighth member of the Jury? Brooklyn Eddiot Kendra Did Eddiot make the right decision? Yes- He has been playing with loyalty all season and will win respect by continuing that No- Kendra was his biggest and possibly only shot at winning. He should have voted Brooklyn out Did Samantha make the right decision? Yes- There was no way she was getting to the final two with Kendra there No- She completely burned Kendra's jury vote and should have taken it to a tie

Author's Notes

 * The episode title was said by Samantha Langrick, after her aggressive emotional manipulation to ensure Kendra remained on her side.
 * This is the first season since Survivor: Eyre Peninsula where the final three is made up entirely of people from the same starting tribe.
