This is the 5th episode of Survivor: Montserrat
Previously On Survivor...[]
On Garibaldi, Braiden, feeling sick to his stomach went to do his business in the bushes. To his surprise, he also found Alex and Leila making love and he quickly decided to inform his closest ally, Ryan.
After Soufrière won their first reward challenge, they decided to send Ryan to Exile Island. Ryan decided to bring Doug with him and the two formed an Exile Island Alliance, which will also include Ella from Soufrière and Braiden from Garibaldi. In addition, Ryan informed Doug about Alex and Leila’s relationship.
Once again, Garibaldi won the immunity challenge, sending Soufrière back to tribal council. Doug informed his alliance of the possibility that either Derek or Deanne could have the Hidden Immunity Idol, prompting them to split the vote and send Deanne home in the revote. Derek however decided that Jason was a more dangerous player and tried to recruit Carson, Kelly-Ann, and Deanne to vote him out and abandon the split vote plan. Carson promised to switch his vote regardless so that Deanne would go home without a tie vote. Kelly-Ann however, voiced to Carson her concerns with voting out their ally, Jason.
At tribal council, Deanne called Derek out on his numerous deceptions, and his targeting of Jason, making Jason nervous. In the end, Derek was the only one to vote for Jason, and even though Carson did change his vote to Deanne, Deanne’s last minute scrambling worked as Jason changed his vote from Deanne to Derek; blindsiding Derek.
16 are left; who will be voted out tonight?
Challenges[]
Reward Challenge: Sacrificial Lamb
Two players are harnessed to a rope winding through several obstacles. The rest of their tribe helps them move along it – up and over an A-frame, under a thick log on the sand, around a long hitching post, and around a giant boxlike structure – to the end of the rope. Then, one player swims to a buoy and dives down to retrieve a decoder wheel before coming back, where the entire tribe uses it to work out a six-word phrase.
Reward: Coffee, Tea, and Chocolate
Winners: Garibaldi
Immunity Challenge: A Crate Idea
In pairs, the castaways would race across a field to retrieve six large crates painted in their tribe's colors. Once all six crates were retrieved, the tribes would have to stack the crates into a staircase with the name of their tribe in alignment along the sides. The first tribe to complete the staircase and get all of their members up the staircase to the top of a platform would win..
Winners: Soufrière
Story[]
Night 12[]
SOUFRIÈRE:
The Soufrière tribe returns from tribal council. The majority of the tribe is still stunned that Derek was sent home. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Deanne.
Kelly-Ann: I just want to know, what the f*** happened tonight? I’m just saying, I seriously don’t think Derek would have voted for Jason to send himself home.
Carson: Maybe Derek just thought we would all be on board, and we just fooled him big time.
There is a slight pause among the remaining members of the Soufrière tribe. Jason then speaks up.
Jason: Look guys, I’m going to be honest with you. I did change my vote, but I was assigned to vote for Deanne, and I voted for Derek. I did it because he was coming after me. You all saw that since he wrote my name down.
Kelly-Ann: Ok, I understand that. But if you voted for Derek, Jason… then who cast the third vote for Deanne?
Pamela: It wasn’t me. I was just as shocked as the rest of you.
Deanne: I didn’t vote for myself.
Kelly-Ann: Well, it wasn’t me.
The entire tribe now looks at Carson.
Carson: What y’all looking at me like that for? It wasn’t me!
Ella: Well then, somebody is lying. Otherwise, Jeff would have read only two votes for Deanne.
Carson: I think Pammy over here is the one that’s lying.
Pamela and Jason are both shocked at the accusation.
Pamela: First of all, don’t call me Pammy. Second of all, Derek tried to throw both Jason and I under the bus! Why on earth would I change my vote to try and keep him in?
Kelly-Ann: Well somebody is lying here, and it’s not me.
Day 13[]
GARIBALDI: After the intro plays, the camera shows Alyssa, Braiden, Joan, Ryan, and Vanessa of the Garibaldi tribe sitting on the beach. Jackson is fishing. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Vanessa.
Vanessa then sits down next to Braiden and starts flirting with him.
Vanessa: Hey Braiden. (winks)
Braiden: Hey Vanessa. Nice day today isn’t it?
Vanessa: Yeah, the weather is much better than it has been the past little while, hasn’t it?
Braiden: I would say so.
Vanessa: You know, I think you’re a better fisherman than Jackson.
Braiden: Really? What makes you say that?
Vanessa flips her hair.
Vanessa: Well, I just think you are so much stronger than he is.
Braiden: Really?
Vanessa: Yeah. I mean, this tribe would definitely survive if you were the only one fishing. Jackson can stay in the kitchen for all I care.
Braiden (chuckling): Well, I don’t know about that.
Vanessa: Well I do.
Vanessa then gets up and goes behind Braiden. She then starts picking the dirt out of Braiden’s hair while humming quietly. Braiden is clearly enjoying the attention Vanessa is giving him. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Braiden.
The camera then shows Alyssa walking by and staring at Braiden and Vanessa, it then cuts to a confessional from her.
The camera now shows Alex and Leila together in the woods.
Leila: Do you think we’ve done enough to hide our relationship from the tribe?
Alex: I think we have. Don’t worry about it, baby. We’ll get through this.
Leila: I don’t know I’m just worried; what if somebody caught us kissing or something?
Alex puts his hands on Leila’s shoulders.
Alex: Leila, look at me.
Leila looks into Alex’s eyes.
Alex: Nobody caught us doing anything. We’re fine; they think I’m in a relationship with some girl named Jessica anyway.
Leila is still looking at Alex, but she has a worried look on her face.
Alex: Do you trust me.
Leila: (sighs) I trust you.
Alex: One-hundred-million percent?
Leila: One-hundred-million percent.
Alex and Leila hug for a bit, and then Alex gives Leila a kiss on her forehead. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Leila.
The footage now shows scenes of the reward challenge. The camera then turns to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: Come on in guys!
The camera then shows Garibaldi entering the challenge area with Ryan carrying the tribe flag. The camera then turns to Soufrière entering the challenge area with Kelly-Ann carrying the tribe flag.
Jeff Probst: Garibaldi, get your first look at the new Soufrière tribe. Derek voted out at the last tribal council.
The camera then shows the reactions of the Garibaldi tribe members. Most of them are not too shocked to see that Derek was voted out. The camera then turns back to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: Alright… drop your buffs. We are switching tribes.
All sixteen of the remaining castaways are in shock that they are switching tribes.
Krystle: Oh my God.
Alex: S***!
Kelly-Ann: Oh dear.
Deanne (quietly): Hell yeah.
Once all of their buffs hit the ground, the camera then turns back to Jeff Probst. Jeff Picks up a basket full of eggs.
Jeff Probst: Alright, I want each of you to take an egg. Some of these eggs have orange paint in them; the others have green paint in them. Orange paint means you are on the Soufrière tribe and green paint means you are on the Garibaldi tribe. Here I come.
Jeff Probst proceeds to hand an egg out to each of the castaways who are all clearly nervous about what is about to happen. The camera then turns back to Jeff Probst standing in front of the two tribes.
Jeff Probst: When I tell you to, I want all of you to smash your eggs.
3…
2…
1…
Smash!
All of the castaways smash their eggs.
Jeff Probst: If you are orange, step on the orange mat; if you are green, step on the green mat.
The castaways switch mats and say hello to their new tribe mates. The camera then turns back to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst points out that the new tribes are as follows:
Garibaldi | |||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Alyssa |
Carson |
Deanne |
Ella |
Jackson |
Kelly-Ann |
Leila |
Ryan |
Soufrière | |||||||
Alex |
Braiden |
Doug |
Jason |
Joan |
Krystle |
Pamela |
Vanessa |
The castaways continue to look around at their new tribe mates. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Leila.
Jeff Probst: Alright, well it’s time to see how your new tribes match up right now. It’s time to get to the reward challenge.
Jeff Probst then explains the reward challenge dubbed Sacrificial Lamb. He then reveals that the reward is a “caffeine lover’s paradise”. The reward is a basket containing a coffee maker, various assortments of coffee and tea, including green tea, as well as a full cooler of chocolate. There is also sugar in the basket as well as cream in the cooler for those that like cream/sugar in their coffee. Jeff Probst then gives the two new tribes a minute to strategize before they get started.
Jeff Probst: Survivors ready… GO!
Both tribes are pretty even along the obstacle course phase of the challenge. The new Soufrière tribe takes a slight lead over the new Garibaldi tribe towards the end allowing Braiden to jump in the water to retrieve the decoder wheel for Soufrière with a bit of a head start over Jackson for Garibaldi. Soufrière starts trying to decode their phrase first while Jackson returns with the decoder wheel for Garibaldi trailing slightly. However, the new Soufrière struggles with trying to decode their phrase while the new Garibaldi works well together. This allows the new Garibaldi to complete their phrase first for the win.
Jeff Probst: Garibaldi wins reward!
The camera shows the new Garibaldi tribe celebrating their win followed by a disappointed Soufrière tribe. The camera then turns to Jeff Probst standing in front of the two tribes.
Jeff Probst: Garibaldi, nicely done. Even though you’re a new tribe, you seem to be continuing your winning ways. You guys win coffee, tea, and chocolate for your tribe. One more order of business though, who from the new Soufrière tribe do you guys want to send to Exile Island?
Ella: We’re going to send Braiden to Exile.
Jeff Probst: Alright Braiden, grab your stuff and come on over.
Braiden grabs his bag and heads over to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: Braiden, you now have some power here. You get to decide which member of your now former tribe you want to go to Exile Island with you.
Braiden: Well, Ryan was just there last time, so I think I want him to give me a tour.
Ryan starts chuckling as he grabs his bag.
Jeff Probst: Alright Ryan, come on over.
Ryan heads over to join Jeff Probst and Braiden.
Jeff Probst: Alright guys, grab your stuff, here’s a map. You can head on out.
Ryan takes the map from Jeff and both guys start heading towards Exile Island.
Jeff Probst: Braiden and Ryan will return to the game in time for your first immunity challenge as new tribes. Alright, Garibaldi, come grab your reward. You guys can head on out.
An excited Garibaldi tribe runs towards Jeff Probst and grabs the basket and the cooler. They then start to head back to camp.
Jeff Probst: Soufrière, I got nothing for you. Grab your stuff and head on back to camp.
The camera shows the new Soufrière tribe grabbing their bags and heading back to camp. It then cuts to a confessional from Deanne.
SOUFRIÈRE:
The camera shows the new Soufrière tribe returning from the reward challenge. It then cuts to a confessional from Pamela.
The footage now shows Pamela and Jason talking with Joan and Vanessa in the woods.
Pamela: I just want to know where you guys stand right now and if you would even consider working with us down the line.
Joan: Absolutely, and I mean, I don’t want to say for certain; but, I think it’s something we will consider. I mean, I don’t feel all that comfortable around Krystle. I don’t know what that girl is thinking half the time, and to be honest, I think she is a little crazy.
Vanessa: Yeah, Krystle is definitely a wild card here. I also like you guys a lot, you know? I feel comfortable around you guys and I think you would be trustworthy.
Joan: But I think that’s the issue right there though. I mean, we wouldn’t want to flip on our tribe only for you guys to go right back to your own tribe mates after the merge, you know?
Jason: Absolutely, but the thing is, Carson is a real drama queen in this game. He’s also a liar and he’s not afraid to spread rumors.
Pamela: Yeah, I mean, just at our last tribal council, he changed his vote I think just to start drama. I mean, Derek was targeting Jason and I’m 99% sure that it was Carson changed his vote from Derek to Deanne. Derek went home because Jason flipped his vote from Deanne to Derek. When we get back to camp, Carson accuses me of flipping my vote to try and keep the person targeting my closest ally. It doesn’t make sense that I would do that, but I think he accomplished his goal of starting drama when there was all this confusion about who that extra vote for Deanne was from.
Joan: Interesting, but you said that you were 99% sure it was Carson. Who would the other 1% be?
Pamela: Kelly-Ann. She’s really tight with Carson, but she seemed genuinely confused about the vote herself. But I guess there’s a slight possibility it could have been her.
Vanessa: I guess that makes sense. Jason: But yeah, if you guys would consider teaming up with us, that would be great. I mean, we’ll be up to doing pretty much anything right now since we were in a weird spot with our old tribe. Besides, I love talking to you guys. Having you around here is like a breath of fresh air.
Vanessa takes a big breath in as she slides her hands up her torso and tilts her head towards the sky. When her hands reach just below her neck, she then puts them above her head and smiles while opening her mouth to exhale.
Jason starts chuckling.
Jason: Who do you think you are, Vanessa? WWE’s Goldust?
Vanessa (smiling): I don’t know, maybe.
Vanessa then repeats the motion that she did earlier. This time however, she exhales into a bite in Jason’s direction in a similar fashion to WWE’s Goldust.
All four of them start laughing. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Joan.
The footage now shows Alex sitting alone on the beach staring at the water.
GARIBALDI:
The footage shows the new Garibaldi tribe entering their camp with their reward basket filled with coffee, tea, and sugar, and their cooler filled with chocolate and cream.
Alyssa: Welcome to our humble home guys!
The members of the Garibaldi tribe start cheering. They then set down the basket and the cooler. Deanne takes out the coffee maker and proceeds to make coffee for the tribe.
Kelly-Ann: I must say that this is like the greatest reward ever! The one thing that I have been craving since the first night is chocolate! I also miss my morning pot of coffee every day.
Deanne: Oh, for sure! I’m just glad that we’re finally on a tribe that doesn’t suck!
The tribe sits down and starts to eat the chocolate from the reward. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Kelly-Ann.
The camera now shows the members of the original Soufrière tribe being Kelly-Ann, Carson, Ella, and Deanne, meeting in the woods.
Kelly-Ann: I just want everyone here to know that as of right now, we need to stick together so that we can be the final four. As far as I’m concerned right now, it’s a new game. Doug, Pamela, and Jason are outnumbered on the other tribe so we can’t expect them to even be around come the merge. If they are, they probably joined forces with somebody from the original Garibaldi.
Carson: I agree; unifying as the original Soufrière members is the best move for all of us at this point. There must be some cracks between the original Garibaldi members, so we should be able to get one of them to flip.
Deanne (sighs): Yeah, I mean, unless we want to go home, we need to unify and convince one of them to flip.
Ella: I’m thinking Ryan will be our best bet. He’s on Exile right now and so if they’re talking strategy, he’s probably left out.
Carson: Yeah, I think we should talk to each of them and see where their heads are at.
Kelly-Ann: For sure, nobody wants to draw rocks at this stage of the game. If we can convince just one member of the original Garibaldi tribe that the four of us are so unified to the point of drawing rocks, they should be willing to flip and join us.
Deanne: I agree.
The footage now shows Alyssa, Leila, and Jackson talking in the water.
Alyssa: The best move for all of us members of the original Garibaldi at this point is to stick together until the end; the three of us, and Ryan.
Leila: Yeah, I’m just worried about him though. I mean, if we were to go to tribal council before this switch, Krystle would be gone and Ryan would not have been a part of that decision. I’m just worried that he might be able to sense that and not be willing to draw rocks.
Jackson: You make a good point Leila, but I’m not so sure about that. Ryan’s a smart guy. I think he saw the effect that Krystle had on us before the switch and that she was scaring us a little bit. I think he would have written her name down as well if we went to tribal.
Alyssa: Exactly, besides I think we have a good enough relationship with Ryan that he will probably be willing to stick with us if we lose the immunity challenge.
Leila: Are you sure about that?
Alyssa: I'm absolutely positive. We just need to find someone from their tribe that might be willing to flip. I’m thinking Deanne.
Jackson: Why Deanne?
Alyssa: Just look at that group, if you ask 100 people who doesn’t fit, 99 of them will pick Deanne. Kelly-Ann, Carson, and Ella are so much younger than her and around the same age group themselves. I also think that Carson and Kelly-Ann in particular are very tight.
Leila: I see what you’re saying. We just need to make sure that Ryan feels comfortable sticking with us and then try and get Deanne to join us should we lose the immunity challenge.
Jackson: I don’t think we should wait that long though. We should start trying to convince Deanne to flip as soon as possible.
Leila: Well yeah, it only makes sense. I mean, if we don’t start building a solid relationship with her ASAP, she will think we just want her for a vote.
Alyssa: Which we do.
Jackson: Well yeah, we just can’t let her think that.
EXILE ISLAND:
The footage shows Ryan and Braiden entering Exile Island. They see the box with the Hidden Immunity Idol clues and read them. They then start talking strategy.
Braiden: So I just want to know; whatever happens between now and the merge, are you with me until the end of this game?
Ryan: Of course! Why wouldn’t I be?
Braiden: Just checking.
Ryan: Fair enough.
Braiden: So, what do you think about the tribe switch thus far?
Ryan: I’m okay with it. I’m just glad that Garibaldi has the majority on your new tribe. We also have two members of our Exile Island Alliance on each tribe as well.
Braiden: Yeah, we’d be fools not to exploit that as much as we could at this stage.
Ryan: No doubt; especially since there are four members from each original tribe on the new Garibaldi.
Braiden: Yeah; you need to do everything you can to get Ella to flip man. Sticking with Garibaldi as much as we can would be our best move. I’m just worried that the people from our tribe now on Soufrière will push for me to get rid of Doug first.
Ryan: I guess your only real choice then is to win challenges. But I would also check in with Joan and Krystle to make sure they are still up for going with us to the end.
Braiden: Yeah, I agree with you there. If we do lose, I hope that I would be able to convince them to vote out either Pamela or Jason.
Ryan: Yeah, I don’t want to lose these challenges either because with the numbers the way they are though, I’m in a bit of a tight spot. I don’t want to turn on Garibaldi just yet either. I’m just scared that Ella wouldn’t be willing to budge if we lose.
Braiden: I guess we both just have to fight as hard as we can in the challenges. (Motions for a handshake) may the best man win.
Ryan (shakes Braiden’s hand): Same to you. I hope to see you at the merge.
Braiden: I’m sure you will. Alright then, shall we look for this Hidden Immunity Idol?
Ryan: It’s probably already been found; but, it doesn’t hurt to look.
Day 14[]
SOUFRIÈRE:
Footage now shows Krystle and Vanessa retrieving the Soufrière tribe’s tree mail. The camera cuts to a confessional from Krystle.
Vanessa: Krystle, I just want to make sure you know that I’m with Garibaldi all the way. I am bleeding green right now and I plan to keep us together until the end.
Krystle: That’s good to know. I’m sorry if I did anything to freak you guys out on the other tribe, this whole thing is just so new to me.
Vanessa: Don’t worry about it girl, it’s a new game now. You, me, Braiden, Joan, and Alex will be the final five if I have anything to say about it.
Krystle: Okay, thank you.
Vanessa and Krystle then examine the tree mail before going back to camp and announcing that they have it. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Vanessa.
Footage now shows scenes of the immunity challenge. It then turns to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: Come on in guys!
The camera turns to the two tribes entering the challenge arena. Alex and Carson are carrying the flags for their new respective tribes. Once the two tribes reach their mats, the camera turns back to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: We will now bring in Ryan and Braiden returning from Exile Island. Ryan and Braiden enter the challenge arena and are welcomed by their respective tribes. The camera then turns back to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: Are you guys ready for today’s immunity challenge?
All 16 Castaways: Yeah!
Jeff Probst: Alright, first things first Alyssa, I need to take it back. Jeff then goes over to the Garibaldi tribe to retrieve the Immunity Idol from Alyssa. He then goes back in front of the two tribes and puts the Immunity Idol on its perch.
Jeff Probst: Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.
Jeff Probst then explains the challenge dubbed A Crate Idea. Jeff then gives the two tribes a minute to strategize before they get started.
Jeff Probst: Survivors ready… GO!
Doug and Vanessa start off retrieving the crates for the new Soufrière while Ryan and Deanne started off retrieving the crates for the new Garibaldi. Deanne and Ryan get their crate back to their tribe with a slight lead on Doug and Vanessa. This lead stays pretty consistent until the fifth crates are being retrieved for both tribes when Braiden and Alex pass Kelly-Ann and Jackson. When retrieving the final crates, the two tribes are pretty even at the finish and start building their staircases at the same time. The new Garibaldi works really well together when maneuvering their crates and takes a sizable lead on the new Soufrière. The new Garibaldi though realizes that they have made one crucial mistake when they are placing their fifth piece. Kelly-Ann points out that they have the “G” in Garibaldi on the top level. They then rearrange their pieces while the new Soufrière is placing their third piece. Upon placing their fourth piece though, the new Soufrière realizes that they have placed a piece incorrectly when Doug points out that the accent in Soufrière is on the bottom level. Both tribes scramble to rearrange their staircases and the race is now pretty even. The members of Soufrière complete their staircase correctly and start to scramble up the steps. Garibaldi then completes their staircase correctly slightly behind Soufrière. It is now a race to see which entire tribe can make it up their staircase first.
Jeff Probst: Soufrière wins immunity!
The camera shows the Soufrière tribe celebrating their win followed by a disappointed Garibaldi tribe. Carson bangs his fist against his tribe’s staircase in frustration. The camera then shows Jeff Probst standing in front of the two tribes.
Jeff Probst: Soufrière, congratulations. It’s been a while since the immunity idol was at your camp.
Jeff Probst hands the idol to Doug and the tribe starts cheering again.
Jeff Probst: Alright Soufrière. Grab your stuff and head back to camp, enjoy the night off.
Once the Soufrière tribe leaves, the camera turns back to Jeff Probst:
Jeff Probst: Garibaldi, unfortunately for you guys, I can’t say the same thing. Somebody from your tribe will become the fifth person voted out of Survivor: Montserrat. I’ll give you the afternoon to figure out who it’s going to be. Grab your stuff and head back to camp; I’ll see you guys at tribal.
The camera then shows the Garibaldi tribe leaving the challenge arena. It then cuts to a confessional from Jackson.
SOUFRIÈRE:
The footage shows scenes of the Soufrière tribe. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Doug.
The camera now turns to Doug talking with Braiden in the woods.
Doug: So how much exactly did Ryan tell you about the little deal we made on Exile?
Braiden: To my knowledge, he told me everything. It's supposed to be me, you, Ryan, and Ella to the end of this game.
Doug: That's the plan for right now, yeah. I'm just wondering now, exactly where you would stand if we ever had to go to tribal council?
Braiden: Obviously, I think the best move for me right now, would be to stick with my original tribe as much as I can. I don't want to be seen as a flipper this early in the game.
Doug: I understand where you're coming from; but, listen, Pam, Jason, and myself really have nowhere to go come the merge. We would have to side with whoever is on this tribe. Kelly-Ann, Carson, and Deanne especially are very sneaky players and I don't trust any of them.
Braiden: Just curious, if push came to shove, would you be willing to vote Jason or Pamela out?
Doug: I guess I would have to. I mean I think I can trust Jason and Pamela to a certain degree in this game, but you also seem like someone who is trustworthy. Especially since Ryan had nothing but positive stuff to say about you. I feel really good about doing this Exile Island Alliance thing with you, him, and Ella.
Braiden: That's good to hear. I'm excited about this alliance myself. But you just need to know where I stand in this game. If you decide not to flip on Pam and Jason, I understand and I will do whatever I can to protect you; but your best option would be to vote one of them out.
Doug: Okay, that's something to consider, for sure. Regardless though, would our alliance still be on post-merge?
Braiden: Yeah. I can't expect you to put your faith in me even though I am unwilling to betray my old tribe at the moment if I don't do the same with you.
Doug: Awesome. Thanks.
GARIBALDI:
The camera shows scenes of the Garibaldi tribe, it then shows Deanne talking with Jackson and Alyssa in the woods.
Deanne: So if I flip, what do I get from you guys in return? I mean, if I draw rocks and an original Garibaldi goes home, I can get fourth place. If I flip, how can I guarantee that I won't be thrown in the trash in fifth place?
Alyssa: I see what you're saying, and you make a very good point. But I think the risk of going home due to a rock draw is too much compared to just joining us. Here's the thing though, if Alex makes the merge, Leila will certainly be more loyal to him. Before the switch, it was clear that the two of them were in a romantic relationship. I also think that Ryan was close with Braiden. If you flip to join us, I'm sure we would have the majority come the merge and given who Leila and Ryan are likely to be more loyal to, I would have no problems taking you all the way to the final three.
Deanne: Okay.
Jackson: I mean, if you don't trust Kelly-Ann, Carson, and Ella to keep you until the end. You are better off coming with us. Alyssa and I will protect you. Remember, we don't think that Leila and Ryan will be loyal to us all the way to the end, so we will just take them out and you can come with us to the final three.
Deanne: Sounds good.
Alyssa: Who from Soufrière would you like us to cast our votes for?
Deanne: Kelly-Ann. She was the Queen Bee on Soufrière. She was running this game and if she gets the majority tonight, she will continue to run this game.
Jackson: Okay then, Kelly-Ann it is.
Alyssa and Jackson both shake hands with Deanne. The camera then cuts to a confessional from Deanne.
The camera now shows Ryan talking with Ella in the water.
Ella: Based solely on the conversations I had with Doug about this, I feel really good about joining up with you, him, and Braiden to do this Exile Island Alliance thing.
Ryan: Yeah, I would say I feel good about it too.
Ella: The thing is though, as far as tonight, where do you think you stand? I mean, I understand that you might be reluctant to flip on your tribe as I am to flip on mine, but we wouldn't want either of us going home because we drew the purple rock.
Ryan: I know. I think drawing rocks is a stupid way to play the game.
Ella: I agree 100%.
Ryan: Where do you think Deanne stands right now?
Ella: To my knowledge, she is still with Soufrière; but, with that being said, I think she may very well flip to join Garibaldi.
Ryan: Yeah, I wasn't sure. I think Deanne is probably playing both sides. Alyssa told me earlier that Deanne wanted to take out Kelly-Ann because she was running the show on Soufrière.
Ella: So she probably is flipping then. She has written down Kelly-Ann's name before, I don't see why she'd have a problem doing it again. Especially if the alternative is drawing a rock. (sighs) I'm now officially worried.
Ryan: Why don't we just take Deanne out then?
Ella: I don't know if Kelly-Ann would be up for doing that. I think in Kelly-Ann and Carson's heads, they think Deanne will stick with them. They want Alyssa gone.
Ryan: But if they think Deanne is going to flip, we would have the numbers to take her out. We can just convince Garibaldi that Deanne is playing both sides.
Ella: I'll talk to Kelly-Ann and Carson about it, but I can't make any promises.
Ryan: What if I flip to neutralize Deanne? I haven't trusted Alyssa and Jackson since this game started. I'm not 100% sure I want to do that; but, I might be able to convince Leila to join me.
Ella: That might work. If Alyssa and Jackson are tight and can't be trusted to begin with, the smart thing to do would be to take them out.
Ryan: Absolutely, but I'll talk to Leila and see what she wants to do.
Ella: And I will talk to Deanne again and see where her head is at. Hopefully we can come to some sort of consensus.
The camera shows Ryan and Leila talking in the woods.
Leila: Are you down with voting Kelly-Ann out tonight? Alyssa is pretty confident that she convinced Deanne to flip.
Ryan: That's the thing, I don't know. I don't trust Alyssa as far as I can throw her. I also think Deanne is playing both sides, so we need to be careful.
Leila: What are you saying exactly?
Ryan: Ella came to me saying that Deanne is playing both sides and that she has written down Kelly-Ann's name before. She wanted to see if maybe I would flip to join Soufrière. The offer is tempting because I don't trust Alyssa.
Leila: So you want me to flip my vote as well?
Ryan: Do you trust Alyssa?
Leila: No, but I don't trust anybody from that other tribe. Flipping I think would be a really risky move.
Ryan: I think not flipping would be a really risky move. Alyssa seems so confident that Deanne is going to flip tonight. I wonder what kinds of deal Alyssa has proposed to her.
Leila: But where do you think that will get us?
Ryan: I think if we both flip, it will get us in a better spot. Ella came up and talked to me earlier. She doesn't trust Carson and Kelly-Ann, but she trusts Alyssa and Deanne less. I was thinking that at the merge, it can be me, you, Braiden, Alex, and Ella in an alliance.
Leila: That sounds great and all, but how can you be sure that you can trust Ella? What if she's playing us and just trying to convince you to vote out Alyssa so that we don't have to draw rocks and that Deanne doesn't have to flip?
Ryan: Honestly, there's no way to know for sure. I just have this gut feeling. I don't trust Alyssa and Jackson at all, we need to find some sort of middle ground here.
Deanne walks by and hears that Leila and Ryan are talking.
Deanne: What's up guys?
Leila: We were just discussing who to vote out tonight. We were thinking Kelly-Ann needs to go.
Deanne: Yeah, she was the Queen Bee on the Soufrière tribe. I don't trust her. Not only that, but Carson is a liar and a cheat.
Ryan: That's what we were thinking.Taking out Kelly-Ann as soon as possible would be the best thing for us right now.
TRIBAL COUNCIL:
The members of the new Garibaldi tribe enter the tribal council area carrying their torches. Jeff Probst is standing in the hut waiting for them. The tribe members each put their torches in their holders and take a seat on one of the stools. Jeff Probst then sits down himself.
Jeff Probst: Alright, before the reward challenge, everyone was divided into two new tribes. Kelly-Ann, how do you feel about this new tribe you're on?
Kelly-Ann: It's definitely not what I was hoping for in terms of a tribe switch. I mean, there are four original Garibaldi members and four original Soufrière. That leaves the threat of a rock draw looming, which is not something anyone wants to go through.
Jeff Probst: Alyssa, Kelly-Ann just made a great point. If everyone were to stick true to their original tribe, the vote would be split 4-4 and we would be drawing rocks. How does that make you feel?
Alyssa: The threat of drawing rocks definitely sent us all into game mode as soon as we got back from the reward challenge. I mean, we all enjoyed the coffee, tea, and especially the chocolate we won; but, right away, as soon as we got back, our thoughts have to go to "Who's going to flip? Will anybody flip? Will we draw rocks?" Etc., etc.
Jeff Probst: Leila, with the threat of drawing rocks looming, what does that do to levels of paranoia around camp?
Leila: There has certainly been a significant spike in the level of paranoia around camp. At the end of the day, you really don't know who truly has your back and who doesn't. That's what makes this kind of situation really really scary.
Jeff Probst: Carson, would you agree with that?
Carson: 150% Jeff. I mean, after the first ever rock draw Survivor: Marquesas, there has always been a fear of being that person that draws the purple rock and goes home. We've seen the effect it has on people in this game. I mean, that fear caused Cochran to make the dumbest move of Survivor: South Pacific by turning on his tribe at the merge.
Jeff Probst: Deanne, where's your head at?
Deanne: I don't know what to think at this point, Jeff. I mean, trust is a huge factor in this game, and I think that you need to trust your gut instinct in terms of what to do. But so many things have been racing through my mind lately and I'm trying to determine exactly which way to go is better for me in this game.
Jeff Probst: Kelly-Ann, where's your head at?
Kelly-Ann: I'm definitely worried about the possibility of me going home tonight, Jeff. But I guess I have to trust the people I gave my word to, and vice versa, and hope it works out for me in the end.
Jeff Probst: Alright, it has been a very interesting tribal council. Let's see how it all plays out. It is time to vote; Carson, you're up.
Carson stands up and makes his way to the voting podium, his vote is not revealed. Ella is the next person to vote. Her vote for Alyssa is revealed to the public.
“ | I really don't know what's going to happen tonight. I'm just crossing my fingers that I put my trust in the right people and that this vote goes my way. |
” |
–Ella |
Jackson, Ryan, Kelly-Ann, and Deanne cast their votes in that order, none of them are revealed.
Alyssa is the next person to cast a vote. Her vote for Kelly-Ann is revealed to the public.
Leila is the last person to cast a vote. Her vote is not revealed. Once Leila sits back down with the rest of the tribe, the camera turns back to Jeff Probst.
Jeff Probst: I'll go tally the votes.
Jeff Probst leaves to go and grab the urn containing the votes. He then comes back and stands in front of the tribe.
Jeff Probst: If anybody has a Hidden Immunity Idol and you want to play it, now would be the time to do so.
The members of the new Garibaldi tribe look around at each other. Seeing that nobody is playing an idol, Jeff Probst continues.
Jeff Probst: 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 Probst opens the urn and takes out the first vote.
Jeff Probst: First vote... Kelly-Ann.
Alyssa. One vote Kelly-Ann, one vote Alyssa.
Alyssa.
Kelly-Ann. We're tied, two votes Alyssa, two votes Kelly-Ann.
Alyssa.
Kelly-Ann. We're tied again, three votes Alyssa, three votes Kelly-Ann.
Alyssa. We're at four votes Alyssa, three votes Kelly-Ann, one vote left.
Jeff Probst pulls out the last vote.
Fifth person voted out of Survivor: Montserrat... Alyssa. You need to bring me your torch.
Alyssa is shocked at the outcome of the vote. Her, Jackson, and Deanne look at each other with jaws wide open. Kelly-Ann breathes a sigh of relief. Alyssa then stands up, grabs her bag and her torch and heads over to Jeff Probst and places her torch in the holder in front of Jeff.
Jeff Probst: Alyssa, the tribe has spoken.
Jeff Probst places the snuffer on Alyssa's torch. As he takes it off, smoke can be seen coming out of Alyssa's torch where the flame once was.
Jeff Probst: It's time for you to go.
Alyssa looks over at her former tribe mates.
Alyssa: Good game guys. Good luck, have fun.
Alyssa then walks out of the tribal council area, and heads off into the night.
Jeff Probst: Well, if there was one thing that was made clear tonight, it's that paranoia makes people do wild and crazy things. Given the look on everyone's faces, especially Alyssa's, I think the next few days will certainly be very interesting at the new Garibaldi camp. Garb your torches, head back to camp. Good night.
The outro music plays as the seven remaining members of the Garibaldi tribe grab their bags and their torches and head back towards their camp.

Voting Confessionals[]
“ | Alyssa, this vote is nothing personal. You're just the biggest threat of the original Garibaldi members. Hoping for a miracle tonight. | ” |
–Carson |
“ | I really don't know what's going to happen tonight. I'm just crossing my fingers that I put my trust in the right people and that this vote goes my way. | ” |
–Ella |
“ | Kelly-Ann, with the stuff that Deanne is saying about you, being that you're calling the shots on Soufrière and everything; that just makes me think that voting you out would be the best strategic move for me and my alliance right now. Sorry. | ” |
–Jackson |
“ | Alyssa, I haven't trusted you from day one. You're sneaky and you're manipulative. Besides, given the position that I am in in this game right now, voting you out would be my best move strategically. | ” |
–Ryan |
“ | Alyssa, I'm hoping for a miracle tonight. If we draw rocks, you won't be going home. But I just have to put my trust in the people that gave me their word. | ” |
–Kelly-Ann |
“ | Kelly-Ann, you never gave me a chance on the original Soufrière when you were the Queen Bee. I'm going to enjoy seeing you get your torch snuffed so that I can have my sweet sweet vengeance. | ” |
–Deanne |
“ | Here's hoping that Deanne sticks to her word and that you, the current Queen Bee of Survivor: Montserrat, get sent home, making way for a new Queen Bee to take her throne and the million dollar check. If that doesn't happen, who knows, I might be eating good food and sleeping in a nice warm bed tonight. | ” |
–Alyssa |
“ | Alyssa, this was a very tough decision for me. But based on what Deanne has been saying, I don't trust you, and I won't feel at all secure if I stick with you and Jackson in this game. I'm really sorry, but I have to do what's best for me right now. | ” |
–Leila |
Final Words[]
“ | I'm in shock right now, I really don't know what just happened. I guess Deanne didn't keep her word and maybe Ryan flipped. Wow. They really got me good. But I guess that's what makes this game so interesting | ” |

Author's Notes[]
The episode title was said by Alyssa Watson as part of a message to Kelly-Ann Vnuk who she perceived to be the Queen Bee in the game.
