Warning: Here be series-wide spoilers!

PREVIOUSLY ON SURVIVOR: VANUATU…



LET’S GET THIS SHOW STARTED!

After Alinta get back from Tribal Council, Chris tells a tall tale about how Sarge told him to put his name down just before they left and that it was a really tough thing to do. Of course, this didn’t really happen, Chris really did it in an attempt to get in the women’s good books.

It’s now Day 25! And Scout is getting more paranoid about whatsherface (ed- Julie!) replacing her and Twila in the pecking order, and rattles on about how she doesn’t deserve it. so she conspires with Chad and Chris about turning this game on its head.

Later that morning, they get Tree Mail about how they need to bring the pig with them to the Reward Challenge. Yay, soon I won’t have to deal with any more squealing!

REWARD CHALLENGE!

It’s the Sacrificial Lamb challenge! First team to get their “lamb” across the finish line wins an overnight trip to a local village with a feast. They also have to give away the pig at the feast as an offering.

The orange team is Ami, Chad, Chris and Eliza as the lamb. The black team is Leann, Scout, Twila and Julie as the lamb. Off we go!

I swear this challenge was invented so pervy men could enjoy loads of crotch and cleavage shots.

Anyway…

The orange team wins reward!

So our reward winners get flown over to the village. Unfortunately, their trip is spoiled when the pig decides to pee on the floor.

They arrive at the village and are desperate to get rid of the pig.

Eventually, a chief arrives to take away the pig. Yay! But wait, in return he gives them a brand new pig.

Doh!

They pretty much decide to abandon the new pig at the village, and thank god because I can’t take this squealing anymore!

They get treated to a traditional song and dance, fun times!

And there’s a round of kava to go around! It seems that Chad is a bit of a lightweight, as he starts tripping balls shortly afterwards and has to be dragged to a hut to sleep it off.

Food finally arrives, but it’s not what everyone was hoping for, as it’s just basically undercooked cow offal.

They finish off the night by singing with the local kids and it’s very cute.

Meanwhile back at camp, a thunderstorm has just broke out and our losers are having a very miserable, very wet night’s sleep.

It’s now Day 26! And Scout sets about sowing the seeds to get Eliza out, but Leann isn’t so keen…

Our reward winners arrive back from the village, and they get a very ambivalent welcome from the very wet and miserable losers. Ami, meanwhile, can tell that something went on while she was away…

Scout approaches the two guys and they set a plan in motion to get rid of Eliza and then Ami.

IMMUNITY CHALLENGE!

It’s the pole challenge! Last one standing wins immunity.

Off we go!

After several people start to struggle, Julie is first out, shortly followed by Chris and then Scout.

After a while, Ami slides down and is out. Eliza then loses her grip and takes a hard fall straight onto the ground.

Leann tries to hold on but eventually lands on the ground. It’s now between Chad and Twila. Chad struggles to keep a hold onto the pole, and Twila is rather vocal about him wanting to fall. She gets her wish eventually…

Twila wins immunity!

After everyone is back at camp, Scout tries to convince Ami that keeping the guys in favour of Eliza would be best for them to carry the camp workload. But of course, Ami isn’t budging and thinks that she can do the work herself. Riiiight, remember a couple of episodes when you were getting the Lazy Bum edit?

Anyways, she also doesn’t want to risk one of the guys going on an immunity run. Keep that in mind because oh this is going to be so funny a couple of episodes later…

Chad approaches Scout and Twila about the plan, and both of them tell him that they have no idea what’s going to happen. Twila then confronts Ami, who is not budging. She then goes to Scout in complete panic mode because they don’t have the numbers.

Once again she finds herself stuck in the middle, and again contemplates the thought that she’s going to piss someone off regardless.

TRIBAL COUNCIL!

After Alinta take their seats, Jeff asks if the crappy weather has changed anything. Leann says that she’s worried about not being able to handle the rain.

Jeff then asks Chris and Chad if they still have a chance. They both believe that is the case.

Jeff asks Scout if anyone has approached her. She says that she’s talked with everybody and the guys have done the same. However, Ami and Eliza chime in saying “not me!”. Eliza in particular is worried that there will be a 4-4 tie.

Jeff then asks Twila if she’ll ever feel safe. She says that there will always be a little doubt in your mind.

Ami then chimes in on her high horse claiming that she has people she can trust. I love the little Probst Dick Moment where he comments on her smug expression.

It’s time to vote!

Let’s read the votes! Who’s going to become the second member of our jury?

Ugh, I hate strategic cockblocks. Bye Chad, just one guy left standing now.

See you guys for episode 11!
