''Tribal Council went nuclear which ended in Anderson leaving with less than half the votes. Now Deena is all alone. Nine are left, who will be voted out tonight? ''

Night 29
As we fade in on the white moon against the black sky, ominous music plays. We see the final nine returning from Tribal Council and most of them are very unhappy with the results. As Caleb places his torch on a tree, Kai pats him on the back.

Kai: It wasn’t against you, I promise.

Caleb: It’s cool, man. I get it. I just didn’t feel good about putting my vote on anyone else. We’re still solid.

The two men bro-hug before we cut to Noel and Deena.

Noel: Deena, you alri-

Deena: Don’t speak to me!

Noel: Deena.

Deena: No! You are a liar! You knew they were voting him!

Noel: Deena, I didn’t! I swear on my life!

Deena: Bulls**t!

After Deena’s confessional, we see Noel storm towards Kai, Paige, and Troy as they converse.

Noel: What the f**k was that, guys? I thought we were an alliance?

Troy: We are.

Noel: The one thing you don’t do with an alliance is keep them out of a vote and blindside them. You guys told me you were voting Jace!

Kai: We felt like Anderson was a bigger threat between him and Jace.

Noel: Jace was literally throwing my name out! When Joel was voting you, Kai, I flipped to save you because I trusted you! I thought you trusted me!

Kai: I do, but…

Noel: Clearly not.

*intro plays*

Day 30
We open up a view of the Zahra camp as everyone is up and about. Whitney is the focus as she enjoys a small bowl of rice for herself. She looks up and sees Deena walking around camp, still furious about the previous nights Tribal. She throws her bag in the shelter before walking off, surprising Whitney.

After Whitney’s confessional, we cut to Paige and Whitney taking a walk together through the woods. Whitney is in the middle of ranting about Deena.

Whitney: Like she barely did anything before last night so she has no reason to be this upset. He’s not dead, he’s just on the jury. The woman is older than me yet she acts like a two year old.

Paige nods but is barely into the conversation at all.

Whitney (Continuing): Like boo-hoo, your husband was voted out. That gives you no right to act like a raging bitch all of the sudden.

Paige now looks a tad bit annoyed but doesn’t let Deena know.

Paige: If she’s gonna keep acting like a child, we should just vote her out next.

Whitney: I’m good with that. Send her to be with her husband and let them sulk together. They don’t need the million anyhow. Troy and I need the million. Honestly, half these people don’t deserve to win.

Paige: Why’s that?

Whitney: Jace probably still lives with mommy and daddy, Caleb is just a rude individual, Noel showed her true colors yesterday, they’re all spoiled to the core. They don’t deserve the million. Troy and myself deserve it as do you and Kai.

Paige: Mm-hmm.

Paige rolls her eyes as she looks away.

This starts a montage of Whitney with multiple people talking about the money. The first is Noel.

Whitney: Like I live in a run-down apartment in New York. The money could do so much for me. I could get a new apartment, maybe even a house.

Noel rolls her eyes before we cut to Whitney with Kai.

Whitney: Like I feel like I’m pretty deserving. I’ve worked hard my life and some of these other people don’t even lift a finger so they shouldn’t even be close to winning the money.

Kai looks extremely annoyed as we show Whitney venting in the shelter with Caleb nearby.

Whitney: Undeserving children. Try to throw mud on my name. You people shouldn’t even be playing this game.

Caleb chuckles to himself as he shakes his head.

After Caleb’s confessional, we cut to Jace cutting up pieces of fruit by the fire. As he does, we manages to cut his finger.

Jace: Ow, ow, ow.

He sticks the cut finger in his mouth before looking at it once again.

Jace: Ohhh boy, it’s bad.

Everyone begins to turn their attention to Jace as Kai walks up to check.

Kai: What’s wrong?

Jace: Cut the tip off.

Troy: Damn, can we get a medic?

As everyone focuses on Jace, we see Deena standing in the background with a slight smirk on her face.

After Deena’s confessional, we see that the medical team has arrived and are now treating Jace’s injury. He lays in the shelter and covers his face, in pain as the doctors stitch his finger.

Doctor (Joking): Did a good job on yourself.

Jace: Yeah, I try.

The doctors finish up on Jace as he begins to pack his stuff.

Doctor: It should be good now but try to keep it out of the water.

Jace (Joking): Oh, avoid water on an island? Should be easy.

After Jace’s confessional, we see Jace walk up to Deena.

Jace: Hey, how are you feeling?

Deena: What do you care?

Jace: Because you’re my friend.

Deena: Am I? You were part of the reason my husband was voted out!

Jace: Deena, I didn’t even vote for him, you guys voted for me.

Deena: Because you treated us like pawns in your alliance!

Jace: What? I did not, Deena.

Deena: Quit lying!

As Deena continues to grow louder, this draws the attention of everyone else.

Deena: You were part of the reason Anderson is gone! I want nothing to do with you!

Deena then storms off as Noel walks up.

Jace: What the hell did I do?

Noel: Nothing, she’s just loopy.

After Jace’s confessional, we go to commercial.

Day 31
We return from commercial to a pack of seagulls flying together before we cut to D.J., Noel, and Jace sitting together by the fire pit. Noel looks a tad discouraged as she shakes her head.

Noel: I forgot what being on the outs feels like.

Jace (Chuckling): Welcome to the club, it isn’t so bad.

D.J. can only offer up a small chuckle before turning back to the fire.

D.J.: Honestly, I don’t know how we’re gonna get out of the mess we’re in. It just seems like we’re in a hole that we can’t get out of.

Jace: It’s all good, D.J. We can find a way.

D.J.: Doubtful. Those five are super tight together.

Noel: Caleb, Whitney, and Troy all hate each other. That’s a crack right there.

D.J.: They’ll still work together, it’s pointless.

Noel, getting more and more annoyed with D.J., just shakes her head and looks away.

After Noel’s confessional, we see Noel taking a walk with Caleb. As they talk, we see that Whitney is not far behind, accidentally spotting them. She decides to quietly follow and eavesdrop on their conversation.

Noel: So I don’t want to go and I know that after the last vote, I’m probably the last person Kai and Paige trust. But I think that if you stick with them, you could be in trouble.

Caleb: How so?

Noel: Think of it this way, who are two of the weakest people in the game right now?

Caleb: Troy and Whitney.

Whitney looks almost offended but keeps silent.

Noel: Exactly. If you’re Kai and Paige and you want to get to the final three together, you’re gonna want to bring two of the weakest people in the game with you because neither of them are gonna win and they’re not gonna beat anyone in a firemaking competition so where does that leave you?

Caleb: Number five.

Noel: Exactly. Kai and Paige aren’t gonna want you at the end because you do have a shot at beating them.

Caleb nods, agreeing with Noel.

After Caleb’s confessional, we see Whitney fuming nearby.

Right on cue, Whitney storms over to Noel and Caleb, who are surprised Whitney is now there.

Whitney: I’m WEAK, Noel? Really?

Noel: What?

Whitney: Don’t play dumb, I heard you!

Noel: Oh, well yeah I called you and Troy weak.

Whitney: How dare you!?

Noel: What? It’s true.

Whitney: It is not!

Noel: You and Troy are complete ass at challenges. Kai and Paige would be idiots to not take you two to final four.

Whitney: Kai and Paige are honest and deserving people!

As Whitney begins her shtick about deserving people, Caleb just chuckles.

Whitney: What’s so funny?

Caleb: The fact you still talk about who’s deserving and who isn’t. Give it a rest.

Whitney: Oh shut up!

Whitney storms off as Caleb mockingly waves goodbye.

After Caleb’s confessional, we go to commercial.

Immunity Challenge
Once return from commercial, we get a shot of the fifth individual immunity challenge. After we see the challenge, we cut to Probst.

Jeff: Come on in, guys!

The final nine make their way into their next challenge. Once Jeff takes the necklace from Paige, he goes over the challenge.


 * At the start, Whitney, Troy, and Deena constantly fall off the first obstacle while everyone else manages to do pretty decently.
 * Kai and Caleb get an early lead as they manages to get through the second obstacle easily while everyone else still stuggles. Also, Troy’s ball bonks him on the head as he tries to get through the first obstacle.
 * Paige gets through the second obstacle as Whitney finally gets through the first obstacle.
 * Kai gets through the final obstacle first and begins to unlock his chest.
 * Caleb also finishes the final obstacle while Deena and Troy are still stuck on the first obstacle. Paige soon joins Kai and Caleb at the final part of the challenge.
 * Noel and Jace get through the second part of the challenge while D.J.  seemingly gives up and watches Kai, Caleb, and Paige try to knock down their bamboo shoots.
 * Kai quickly knocks down his bamboo shoots, securing him the win. We then cut to everyone facing Probst.

Jeff: Kai, come on over.

Kai walks over and Jeff places the necklace on him.

Jeff: With this around your neck, you are guaranteed a spot in the final eight. Now, for the reward, choose two people to join you.

Kai (Without hesitation): Paige and Caleb.

Paige and Caleb both smile as they join Kai. Paige kisses Kai while Caleb pats Kai on the back.

Jeff: Alright, you guys will be getting ice cream back at camp. As for the rest of you, one of you will become the fifth member of our jury. You have the afternoon to think about it. Head on back to camp, I’ll see you guys at Tribal.

As the tribe leaves, we see a worried Jace.

After Jace’s confessional, we go to commercial.

Zahra
We return from commercial to view a small ice cream cart with a Moroccan man behind it. The final nine return from the challenge with Kai, Caleb, and Paige all approaching the cart.

Kai: Oh man, I can’t wait.

Kai approaches Whitney, ice cream in hand, and taps her on the shoulder.

Kai: Sorry for not picking you, I just don’t want Caleb to flip.

Whitney: No, no. I get it. It’s completely fine.

After Whitney’s confessional, we see Caleb, Paige, and Kai all enjoying their ice cream away from camp so the others can’t see them.

Caleb: I ain’t a big ice cream fan but damn this is good.

Kai: You needed it to, dude. You’re looking real skinny.

Paige: Oh yeah, you are.

We focus on Caleb’s stomach, which is extremely flat.

Caleb: Yeah but it’s good. I’m feeling fine.

Paige: So, what are y’all thinking about tonight?

Kai: I say we just make it an easy night. Deena has been pretty negative since her husband left so maybe being out of the game will help her.

Caleb: I don’t know, I feel like with Deena, she’s not a big threat to win challenges. We can keep her til the end.

Paige: Yeah but we don’t know what Deena will do if she stays. She could go J’Tia on us and destroy the rest of the rice. She needs to be in a better mental space and this game isn’t it.

Caleb: Good point.

Kai: So we good with Deena?

Caleb nods.

After Kai’s confessional, we cut to Jace, D.J., and Noel watching the three eat ice cream from the shelter. Troy and Whitney are nowhere to be seen.

D.J.: So, who do you think they’re gonna vote off today?

Noel: D.J., you gotta get out of that mindset. You’re seriously annoying me.

D.J.: I’m sorry but we’re screwed. You know it, I know it, what’s the point?

Jace: Well you got nothing to worry about. For all I know, I could be the target for tonight.

D.J.: That makes things even worse because I lose you.

Noel: D.J., stop.

D.J. sulks as he looks towards the ground.

Noel: Jace, come on, let’s try Deena one more time.

Jace: Alright. D.J., you coming?

D.J.: No.

Jace shakes his head before Jace and Noel take off.

After Jace’s confessional, we cut to him and Noel as they walk into the woods searching for Deena. They spot her sitting by herself at the water well, crying.

Jace: Deena?

Upon hearing Jace, Deena wipes her tears and glares at the two.

Jace: Deena, you alright?

Deena (Coldly): I’m fine.

Noel: Look, we want to talk.

Deena: What’s there to talk about? We all know it’s me tonight.

Jace: It doesn’t have to be. We can work together and-

Deena: Enough!

Deena stands up.

Deena: For the last time, I am done with you!

Jace: Deena, if we don’t work together, we’re just gonna be sheep to the slaughter.

As Jace continues, Noel is seen getting less and less optimistic.

Jace: If we don’t take a shot at Kai and Paige, we’re handing one of them a million dollars. That’s God’s honest truth!

Deena: I don’t care at this point! I just want the two of you out of my life!

Deena then proceeds to storm off. Jace tries to follow but Noel stops him by putting her hand on his shoulder.

Noel: Jace, it’s over.

Jace: But we need her vote!

Noel: I know but she’s not gonna work with us. She wants one of us out and you probably gave her enough ammo by mentioning Paige and Kai.

Jace (Sighing): You’re right.

After Jace’s confessional, we see Deena walking back to camp with a smirk on her face.

As Deena returns to camp, she spots Paige as she naps in the shelter. Deena taps her on the shoulder to wake her up. Once Paige is up, Deena nods towards the woods, indicating she wants Paige to follow her. Paige gets up and the two women walk into the woods.

Paige: What’s up?

Deena: I just want to talk.

Deena: Look, I know I’m the target for tonight. It’s clear as day. But I just want you to know that I can help you. Jace and Noel pulled me aside earlier and they went on about how you and Kai are controlling the entire game. He was throwing you under the bus hard.

Paige: Interesting.

Deena: Look, I’m done with them. I want to work with you and Kai. I don’t care who we vote between them.

Paige: Listen, I’ll consider it. I can’t give you a straight answer now because I have to talk to my group but just know what you said didn’t call on deaf ears.

Deena: I appreciate it.

The two women hug as we see Paige return to camp and sit next to Kai by the fire.

Kai: How was your talk with Deena?

Paige: Interesting to say the least. You think we should keep her?

Kai: Why?

Paige: Noel and Jace have been tossing our names out today so we could be in trouble if Deena stays.

Kai: I just worry about Deena. She’s a wildcard.

Paige: True.

After Paige’s confessional, we see the final nine leaving for Tribal Council. We see the final nine arrive at Tribal Council as night begins to fall. Once they take their seats and the jury is brought in, Jeff begins the QnA.

Jeff: So the last Tribal Council was one of the craziest I’ve ever seen. Kai, what was the reaction back at camp?

Kai: Quite a few people were understandably upset. Deena was upset about Anderson leaving and Noel was upset about being left out of the vote.

Andre is seen satisfied upon hearing the alliance Noel flipped to blindsided her.

Jeff: Deena, what happened?

Deena: I let them know exactly how I felt. Jace and Noel both had a hand in Anderson leaving, whether they were directly involved or not.

Jeff: Jace, do you agree with Deena?

Jace: Absolutely not. I went to her and Anderson multiple times throughout the afternoon and begged them to work with me and they tried to vote me off. I had nothing to do with that vote.

Deena: If you weren’t so stubborn, things would have been different!

Jace: I’m not gonna go into it again, Deena.

Jeff: What are you referring to Deena?

Deena: Jace wanted to keep Tyler and Anderson and I wanted nothing to do with him.

Upon learning Jace tried to save him, Tyler flashes a slight smile. Meanwhile, both Kai and Paige look at one another.

Jeff: So D.J., how do you see this vote panning out for you?

D.J.: Not good.

D.J. shrugs, not really wanting to go further with his answer. Jeff shrugs back before turning to someone else.

Jeff: Noel, you were part of the two that weren’t happy about the last vote. What was your reaction?

Noel: Oh I was furious. I took a huge risk by flipping at the first Tribal and I was tossed away.

Jeff: Whitney, was Noel tossed away?

Whitney: No but her reaction showed how immature and undeserving she is so I have no problem with her no longer being part of our alliance.

Noel: Oh here we go.

Jeff: Noel?

Noel: All Whitney talks about how undeserving everyone else is and how she and Troy need the money.

Troy: We do! If you saw the way we lived, you wouldn’t be saying s**t!

Noel: I get you guys don’t live well and I’m sorry, I truly am-

Whitney (Under her breath): I don’t need your pity.

Noel (Continuing): -but that doesn’t give you the right to pass judgment on others!

Whitney goes to respond but Kai stops her.

Jeff: Deena, could be good for you.

Deena: Could be.

Jeff: Well let’s see what’s gonna happen. It is time to vote. Paige, you’re up.

Paige takes a deep breath and heads up to the voting urn. Of the nine, only Noel has her vote and voting confessional aired to the public. Once Caleb votes, Jeff retrieves the urn.

Jeff: If anyone has the hidden immunity idol and would like to play it, now would be the time to do so.

The focus is mainly on Caleb as he moves around a bit but stays in his seat.

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

Jeff opens the urn and takes out the first parchment.

Jeff: First vote – Deena.

Deena nods, expecting a few votes.

Jeff: Noel. That’s one vote Noel, one vote Deena.

Noel doesn’t seem too shocked about getting a vote as she shrugs.

Jeff: Deena.

Anderson keeps his attention on Jeff from the jury box.

Jeff: Deena. That’s three votes Deena, one vote Noel.

Deena nods as we get shots of Kai, Paige, and Caleb as the next vote is pulled out.

Jeff: Deena. That’s four votes Deena, one vote Noel.

Deena smiles and nods as she begins to collect her stuff.

Jeff: Twelfth person voted out and the fifth member of our jury – Deena. That’s five and tonight, that’s enough. Need to bring me your torch.

Accepting her fate, Deena stands up and takes her torch. Anderson hangs his head in sadness before watching his wife put her torch in front of Jeff.

Jeff: Deena, the tribe has spoken.

As Jeff snuffs Deena’s torch, she silently leaves Tribal Council. We then see that D.J. has regained a bit of hope as he smiles at the fact that he, Noel, and Jace have survived. Jeff turn turns to the final eight.

Jeff: Well, another vote where you all came together. Let’s see how long that lasts. Grab your torches, head on back to camp, goodnight.

We see D.J. is still smiling as Jace pats him on the back. As the final eight leave Tribal, the credits roll.
