Wasting Her Time And Mine

A Vast Solitary Confinement is the second episode of Survivor: Dueling Desert.

Challenges
Dueling Desert/Reward Challenge: Cube Crossing Contestants will each have a stack of cubes on one platform, with an area of sand separating them from another platform. Using the cubes as stepping stones, they'll need to place them along the sand to create a pathway across. Once at the other side, they'll need to stack ten of the cubes in a vertical stack without it toppling over, meaning that they can't use too many on just getting across or they won't have enough left. Reward: The choice of who will join them on Dueling Desert. Winner: TBA

Immunity Challenge: Contestants will start at the top of a rocky outcrop with a waterfall, needing to jump off, before swimming down to untie knots, retrieving a bag of puzzle pieces from the bottom. When they surface with the bag, they'll swim it to the river bank, placing it on a table, before the next person will go. Once all four bags are retrieved, the three remaining members of the tribe will race to solve the puzzle. Winner: Wangi

Tolmer Tribe
The camera fades in to the night sky, before panning down to the Tolmer tribe's camp in the darkness. As the tribe all cautiously make their way through the pitch black surroundings, given that their fire is out, they eventually all make their way into camp, with their torches being the only source of light. The camera then focuses in on Opal, who looks nervous."tolmer"

- I got left out of the plans to vote off Roger by my allies, and I've got to say, that's a horrid feeling. The irony of it all is probably that I did the exact same thing to Grant in the first vote, and now it's all backfired on me. It sucks to have them go against me without telling me, and I guess nobody trusts me now, and the worst part of all of it is that it's entirely my fault. What was I thinking? (Opal sits down in the shelter, and as she lies back, Grant walks by.)

Grant: (sarcastically) Gee, thanks, Opal. Glad I could count on you."tolmer"

- I'm really concerned that I've tanked my whole game over this stupid obsession with trying to get Grant out, and it worries me. People here don't know that I play professional basketball, because I didn't want them associating me with being a physical threat and being someone who potentially has a lot of money. Even though the latter isn't true at all, I got so blinded my own agenda that I guess they thought me knowing about the vote would burden them. I've really got to get back whatever trust I've lost tomorrow, or else I could find myself on the way out. (Following Opal's confessional, the camera cuts to where Jamie, Michelle and Charlotte are gathered, sitting down on a log at the edge of camp.)

Jamie: Bloody hell, you guys nearly scared me to death when you started whispering.

Michelle: I just had to be sure Charlotte was on board, sorry for that.

Jamie: Yeah yeah, it's all good. I just was more panicked than a 'roo on a highway. Glad you stuck by us Charlotte.

Charlotte: I mean, it was the logical thing to do. We need the losing streak to end somehow and Roger's not going to be much help with that.

Michelle: I agree.

(The three hug briefly, before they begin walking back into camp, with the camera focused on Michelle.)"tolmer"

- I'm glad that Charlotte stuck with us for that vote, because I really have started to enjoy her quirky presence. She might have started off by getting on everyone's nerves and being a bit oblivious to things going on, but I genuinely have loved seeing her turn that around into being someone who we can rely on. As far as I'm concerned, Charlotte has proved herself to us far more than Opal has with Opal's constant paranoia and changing between plans, so I'm definitely inclined to put my trust with her, even if Opal was the one in the original alliance with Jamie and I over her. As the three continue walking, the camera pans up to the night sky.

Author's Notes
It's come to my attention that most of the readers aren't Australian so half the stuff that Jamie says will be completely nonsensical to you. This is a random slang thing I found off the internet so refer to here if you get lost and hopefully it'll have things: http://www.koalanet.com.au/australian-slang.html
