Our Only Hope

This is the eighth episode of Survivor: Norway

Challenges
Reward Challenge: Sprung A Leak Two captains are randomly chosen, who start a selection chain, continuing until there are two teams of four, and one player left out. This player sits out, and they will not go on the reward. Then, one tribe member sits in a small boat in the middle of what is essentially a pool, while the three remaining members of the other team stand on a pontoon and use buckets to throw water at the boat to try and make it sink. The player in the boat can bail water out and move around with their hands. Sink the other team's boat first to score a point. In each round, someone different must sit in the boat. First to two wins. Reward: Village trip for authentic Norwegian meal Winner: Alex White, Julie Halpern, Levi Goodman, Leo Holden

Immunity Challenge: Dragon Rider The final nine must each sit on an unsteady water-filled barrel over a swamp for as long as possible as the water slowly drains out. If they fall off or touch the structure holding the barrel, which is shaped like a dragon, they're out. Last one left wins. Winner:

Night 21
The final nine return from camp after blindsiding Chris. While everyone else is in a celebratory mood, Quinn berates the other men for flipping. He calls them weak-minded and that none of them will win. However, the four men just brush him off.

Day 22
The final nine meet Jeff for their next reward challenge. After Levi and John pick teams, Quinn is left by himself and is unable to go on the reward. For the blue team, Julie is in the boat. For the light green team, Maria is in the boat. Julie does a good job keeping the light green teams water out of her boat while Maria struggles for a bit. However, Maria begins to do better but Julie keeps up her pace, as her boat is practically empty. After two minures, the blue team gets enough water in Maria's boat to sink it, winning them the first point.

In the next round, Levi is on the boat for the blue team while Sam is on the boat for the light green team. The blue team hits Sam's boat hard with water, making it hard for her to keep the water out. Levi also struggles a bit, trying to keep up with the flow of water. However, Sam sinks first, winning the blue team reward.

The blue team reach the feast and begin devouring it. Levi comments on the calmness without Quinn, to which Alex says that he is glad they didn't choose him. As Julie reaches for a napkin, a piece of rolled up paper falls out. Julie picks it up and reads it. Leo, knowing it's a clue, pushes Julie to read it out loud. Knowing she is caught, Julie reads it.

Back at camp, Quinn states the light green team wouldn't have lost if they were chosen. Dejected by the loss, everyone chooses to ignore him.

Maria decides to approach Quinn in an attempt to get him on her side. Maria states that the men betrayed Chris in the blink of an eye and will do the same to him. Quinn, realizing he is now a swing vote, gets a smug grin, which Maria notices.

Justin notices Quinn's smug look and rants to Sam. He states they wish they got rid of Quinn earlier but are now forced to deal with him. Sam agrees, but secretly wants Quinn to be mad at Justin.

Sam and Maria go off on their own and John takes this opportunity to talk to Justin. John says that the women may try to sway Quinn to their side to take out the men. Justin agrees, but hates the thought of working with Quinn. The two agree to vote with Quinn for one vote before getting rid of him.

The reward winners return to camp and Leo tells Justin and John about the idol clue as Julie shows Maria and Sam the clue. Everyone, except Quinn, who is asleep, run out to search for the idol. Leo makes sure Levi doesn't find it by stalking her as Justin and Sam search together. Sam digs a hole in the side of a dirt mound and finds the idol. As Justin turns around, Sam takes the idol and stuffs it in her jean pocket.
