This is the ninth episode of Survivor: Brazil-One World

Challenges
Reward Challenge: Rock Block The castaways would be divided into teams of three: blue, brown, and red. The teams would have a row of eight team-colored ceramic tiles on frames belonging to them.

When all eight tiles of a team were broken, the team would be out of the challenge. The last team with an intact tile would win. Reward: A trip to a river where the three winners will go on a rafting trip followed by a picnic Winner: Joanna Phillips, Riley Quinn, Stephanie White

Immunity Challenge: Rope-A-Dope The castaways would be attached to a rope which is thread through three of obstacles, for which the castaways would have to climb under, over, or around. The first three castaways to finish would move on to the next round. The next round's challenge would be the same, but with a single obstacle three levels high. The first castaway to complete the obstacle would win. Winner: 

Night 24
The final nine return from Tribal. Stephanie apologizes to Riley and Wendy, saying she didn't want to go to rocks. Wendy says it's fine but worries about being picked off by the new majority of Joanna, Joseph, Kelly, Sky, and Trevor. Wendy says she feels like she can convince Joanna to flip and vote out Trevor.

Day 25
Early morning, Wendy and Riley are the first two up. While Riley talks quietly so she doesn't wake anyone up, Wendy speaks in her normal tone, which wakes everyone up. Joseph asks Wendy to keep it down but is ignored. Joseph and Sky look at each other, agreeing to vote her out next.

The final nine then meet for their next reward challenge and are split up into teams. The blue team is Joseph, Kelly, and Wendy. The brown team is Joanna, Riley, and Stephanie. The red team is Sky, Trevor, and Violet. Everyone's focus is on the blue team in order to keep Wendy from winning reward. Wendy makes note of this and complains to Jeff. However, the blue team manage to knock out the red team. Wendy begins to gloat, which annoys the red team. Stephanie then knocks out the last blue tile, winning her, Riley, and Joanna reward.

The three arrive to the river and are greeted by a local worker. He instructs them on what to do before allowing them in a raft. After going down the river, they arrive at their picnic with a bunch of sweets. Stephanie then brings up the possibility of flipping to get rid of Trevor. Joanna says she still doesn't trust Wendy since she tried to get rid of her. Stephanie promises that Wendy will go first and she is safe. However, Joanna is still apprehensive.

The three winners return from reward with Riley running to Wendy and Joanna running to Joseph and Trevor. Riley tells Wendy what Stephanie said about her going before Joanna. However, Wendy calms Riley, saying Steph only said it to get Joanna on their side. Likewise, Joanna tells Joseph and Trevor that Stephanie had been trying to get her to flip. Trevor, who is usually calm and collected, begins to worry Joanna might flip and considers using his idol at the next Tribal.

Steph goes to Wendy and tells everything she said to Joanna, including the part where she said Joanna would stay longer. Wendy says she understands she said it so Joanna would flip but is still wary of Stephanie.

Author's Notes
The reason this episode is up so early after the last update is because I had a computer problem the day before (plus the 28th was my 19th birthday) and I want to stick to my one update a day schedule.
