In That Chaos, We Shall Thrive

This is the 7th episode of Survivor: India - Reincarnation Island.

## Previously On *Survivor...*

*Previously on… Survivor*: Tyler won the Duel of Destiny (Probst: *“TYLER WINS THE DUEL AND REENTERS THE GAME!”*), and the tribes merged (Probst: *“Everyone drop your buffs, we are merged!”*).

Ryan formed an alliance to counter the Fearsome Fivesome (Ryan to their alliance: *“We can dominate the merge together”*) while Danielle tried to get Aishia and Melissa on the same side (Aishia to Melissa: *“I just wanted to apologize for going against you and voting you out.”* Melissa in a confessional: *“I think Aishia is fake.”*)

After Melissa won immunity, Dreamer led the charge against Ryan (Dreamer in a confessional: *“Bye bye Ryan!”*), with Caleb co-signing it (Caleb: *“I don’t trust Ryan at all”*), which got back to their ears (Ryan in a confessional: *“I get to decide because I’m in complete control.”*)

At Tribal Council, everyone sided with Ryan and voted against Dreamer (Probst: *“Dreamer, the tribe has spoken”*), except Tamsyn.

Eleven are left. Who will be voted out tonight?

## Challenges

**Reward Challenge:** *Gate Crasher*

Each tribe uses a puzzle log to break through two sets of gates; then, they must turn, pull, and push the puzzle log to navigate a maze that is worked into the surface of the log. Once the log is cleared from the maze station, the first tribe to hit a gong at the end of the course wins immunity.

**Reward:** A trip at the spa

**Immunity Challenge:** *Hard to Handle*
The castaways must stand on an angled balance beam while balancing a ball. At regular intervals, they would move further down the beam, making it harder to keep steady. The last person standing wins.

## Story

### Night 18

#### Ganesha

The tribe is seen coming back to camp, laying their torches down, as the camera focuses on Aishia.

We can then see most of the tribe around the firepit.

**Tyler:** I’m happy she’s gone, huge weight off of my chest!

**Ryan:** Me too! *(giggles)*

We can now see Grahame approach Tamsyn on the beach.

**Grahame:** I'm so sorry that I ended up votin' for Dreamer, but I just knew there was no way of savin' her at that point.

**Tamsyn:** *(sighs)* It’s okay… what are we going to do?

**Grahame:** I don't know... I hope we can work somethin' out. I think Caleb and possibly Danielle might be open to workin' with us, which is a start.

**Tamsyn:** Aishia would be on board if we had the numbers.

**Grahame:** I've been tryin' to convince Aishia to target somebody like Dylan, who I don’t really trust. He may not be the biggest threat in the game, but it's a start.

**Tamsyn (nodding):** Yeah, anyone but us.

A shot of Dylan is shown in the shelter, followed by the intro playing.

### Day 19

#### Ganesha

We can see most of the tribe in the shelter, as the sun has just risen. Most people are waking up.

**Melissa (coming from the woods):** Tree Mail!

She gets the tribe’s attention and begins reading.

**Melissa:** “Karma Cards are still in play. Everytime someone is voted out, they get to choose a card, which can be good or bad karma.”

The tribe is pleasantly surprised to learn they can get advantages now.

**Melissa:** “This Card is good Karma. Dreamer has chosen to give it to… Caleb!” *(gives the Card to Caleb)*

**Aishia:** Oh dang!

**Caleb:** Oh snap-a-lack! *(reads the Karma Card)* “This is an Extra Vote, which is usable until the Final 5.” Nice!

**Ryan:** Gee wiz!

The scene shifts to Aishia and Caleb talking game at the water well.

**Caleb:** So, with Dreamer gone, who do you think should go next?

**Aishia (shrugging):** I don't know, but Tamsyn's on the bottom now, she's the only one who didn't vote Dreamer.

**Caleb:** Which means that she'll do anything to stay in the game, we can get her and Emilee and attempt to pull over Danielle.

**Aishia (surprised):** Wait, wait... why are we trying to work with her?

**Caleb:** Because votes?

**Aishia:** But, if we worked with her we'd be starting from the bottom and working up... shouldn't we just go with majority and take her out?

**Caleb:** And once she's gone, then what? We've got a massive majority hungry for power, instant chaos!

**Aishia:** Well, the problem is... I’m not the majority's target, so I'm not really in the mood to work against the group?

**Caleb (sighing):** Fair enough. We'll get Tamsyn out.

Aishia shakes her head as the camera zooms in on her.

The scene changes to Aishia talking to Emilee and Ryan, who are laying on the hammock.

**Emilee (chilling):** This feels so good…

**Aishia:** By the way, Caleb is against us right now. *(frowns)*

**Ryan:** Huh? Did he mention why?

**Aishia:** He said he's going after the majority. He's trying to recruit people and create an alliance with Tamsyn to take out "the majority".

**Emilee:** Oh gosh, is he talking about us? How would he know about us though?

**Ryan:** I don't know about you guys but I think the vote should be Caleb next tribal...

**Aishia:** Yeah, maybe... that advantage is scary in this game, he's got like, a whole 'nother vote in his pocket he could use. If we took him out, we'd be getting out someone against us... and preventing him from using it.

**Emilee:** If Caleb is after us, maybe we should vote for him? It's up to you guys, though!

**Ryan:** I'd personally feel more comfortable here if he left but I'm open to whatever.

We can now see Caleb and Ryan having a chat in the woods.

**Ryan:** How are you feeling about our alliance?  I know you must have some doubts about my trust.

**Caleb:** No, I feel good about it!

**Ryan:** I wouldn't be surprised if you were considering voting for me though.  I did vote you out and I would deserve any backfire that came my way for that. I did hear you were trying to flip on the majority.

**Caleb (lying):** No, I like our alliance and I trust you!

**Ryan:** If you tell me you are considering that I won’t mind!  I will just continue trying to convince you that I am not the threat here. Will you be completely honest with me?

**Caleb:** Yes. I'm not considering voting for you. Promesa.

**Ryan:** Thanks. I appreciate your honesty.

#### Reward Challenge

**Orange Team:** Emilee, Danielle, Aishia, Grahame, Ryan

**Green Team:** Tyler, Timmy, Caleb, Tamsyn, Melissa

**Not chosen, sitting out:** Dylan

* The green team easily gets through the first gate, while the orange team has more trouble
* The orange team finally gets through their first gate when the green team gets through their second
* The green team has trouble solving the puzzle, they lack communication as Caleb, Tamsyn and Melissa all try to talk over each other
* The orange team gets through their second gate and have an easier time on the puzzle, they follow Danielle’s lead which allows them to clear their log and hit the gong

**Probst:** THE ORANGE TEAM WINS REWARD!

The orange team jumps in joy, as they all hug each other. Probst sends them to the spa and the green team and Dylan back to camp.

#### Spa Reward

The five castaways arrive at the spa, where they get welcomed by local masseuses.

**Aishia:** Oh my God, there’s showers guys!

**Danielle:** I’m finally gonna be able to wash the disaster that’s my hair! *(laughs)*

**Emilee:** It’s beautiful out here!

As Emilee’s confessional is displayed, we can see all of them showering and getting massages, until the cameras show all of them relaxing in the hot tub, while eating and drinking.

**Aishia:** This would be a great alliance, I feel like the five of us really get along. *(winks)*

**Danielle:** I personally love this group!

**Ryan:** Yeah, you guys are the best! *(giggles)*

We see all of them cheering, as the screen fades away.

### Day 20

The sun rises above the Ganesha camp, as Danielle, Aishia and Grahame are seen talking on the beach.

**Danielle:** So, what are you guys thinking vote wise?

**Grahame:** I guess Dylan?

**Aishia (shaking her head):** Dylan's not really a threat at all to our game, like what numbers can he get? I’d rather go after Caleb.

**Grahame:** Dylan's already got Tyler and Timmy from Hara while Caleb has literally nobody.

**Aishia:** Dylan's not a threat though, it just doesn't make sense for me personally. Caleb's got an advantage, and he's more likable and has an actual chance to do well.

**Grahame (shrugging):** Okay well, if you guys all want to vote Caleb out, I'll do it.

**Danielle:** I’m fine with either one.

**Aishia:** Sorry for fighting so hard for this, but Caleb's after Ryan... so it's like, I wanna keep us safe.

**Grahame:** No, I get that, it’s fine.

**Aishia:** Alright, well I’m gonna take a dip in the water. I’ll talk to you guys later.

Aishia goes in the water, as the camera focuses on Grahame shaking his head.

**Danielle:** You still want Dylan out if you had the choice, right?

**Grahame:** Well, yeah, Caleb is loyal to me and you, but I don't want people to think that I've got tunnel vision on Dylan or anythin'.

**Danielle:** Well, you just need to convince Aishia and be super suave about it.

**Grahame:** I’ll try! They don't call me Grahame the Suave for nothin'... or maybe it's just me who calls myself that. *(chuckles)*

**Danielle:** I'll call you Suave Gruave so it rhymes! *(laughs)*

The scene shifts to Aishia and Grahame talking in the woods.

**Grahame:** The main concern I have is that all six original Hara members will be makin' the top ten if we keep Dylan.

**Aishia (nodding):** That's true, and a fair point.

**Grahame:** I trust you guys, but I can't help but be suspicious about that.

**Aishia:** But Emilee, Danielle, and I started working with you guys because we don't want to associate with Hara at the merge, because that's 1) obvious, 2) stupid. Because that group could never work. I'm fine taking Dylan out this vote, but it's not my choice, it's all of ours and everyone's opinions are just as valid.

**Grahame:** I agree. I'm sorry for pushin' so hard for Dylan, it's just that I was worried about all the Haras teamin' up.

**Aishia:** Yeah, and it's totally understandable. We can take him out if you insist. (smiles)

They hug, but Aishia rolls her eyes behind his back.

They’re seen walking back to camp, as the screen fades away.

### Day 21

#### Immunity Challenge

* Dylan is quickly out, as he doesn’t manage to balance the ball
* Tamsyn and Ryan follow him out
* Caleb and Danielle make their balls drop during the transition
* Tyler loses balance and falls off the beam
* Timmy sneezes which makes his ball drop
* Emilee loses her balance during the last transition
* After one hour, Grahame finally drops, leaving Aishia and Melissa to fight for immunity
* After two hours, Melissa’s ball drops, giving Aishia the win

**Probst:** AISHIA WINS IMMUNITY!!

Aishia screams in excitement, and gets hugged by her tribemates;

**Probst (putting the necklace around Aishia’s neck):** Congratulations, you now have one in ten shot at winning the game. You guys can head back to camp.

The tribe leave, as the camera focuses on Aishia smiling.

#### Ganesha

The tribe is seen coming back to camp, as Aishia gets congratulated by everyone.

**Grahame:** Good job Aishia!

We can see the Fearsome Fivesome having a meeting on the beach.

**Aishia:** Okay, so we're gonna write Dylan tonight? I'm fine Caleb going 10th and Dylan 11th.

**Grahame (surprised):** Really? Okay, thank you, thank you a lot. As long as we get the two of them out one after the other, we should be fine.

**Ryan:** I’m not sure about this plan, guys. It's just that we can get rid of Dylan anytime and Caleb is more dangerous to keep around longer don't you think?

**Grahame:** We can get rid of both of them at any time though.

**Ryan:** Okay, whatever works.  I guess he just makes me nervous. (chuckles)

The scene shifts to Tamsyn and Grahame talking in the woods.

**Grahame:** I've got some good news!

**Tamsyn (grinning):** What?

**Grahame:** It seems to me that Dylan is the vote tonight, a majority of people told me they’ll be putting his name down.

**Tamsyn:** Perfect!

The scene changes to Danielle and Caleb talking around the firepit, while no one’s in camp.

**Danielle:** So, what's the plan tonight?

**Caleb:** I'm going to try and pull Emilee over to vote Ryan off. You and Grahame can try Tamsyn.

**Danielle:** Well, so far everyone I've talked to has suggested Dylan for the vote. Has there been anyone you've talked to that agreed to Ryan?

**Caleb (shaking his head):** Nope, no one. Maybe I could try telling Ryan that we're voting someone like Timmy. It would flush away their vote and Aishia's.

A shot of Timmy and Aishia swimming is shown.

**Danielle (confused):** Why Aishia's?

**Caleb:** I mentioned flipping to Aishia, then ten minutes later Ryan says that they know I'm flipping. They're close.

**Danielle (unsure):** Alright, go for it - just be careful!

We can now see Caleb approach Aishia and Ryan, who are laying in the hammock.

**Ryan:** Oh, hey! Are you still trying to flip on the “majority”?

**Caleb:** Yeah and I think that tonight me and some others might flip to Timmy. He’s a waste of space.

**Ryan:** Sure, Timmy it is!

**Aishia:** I’m down.

Caleb leaves, as Aishia and Ryan look at each other and burst in laughter.

We can now see Caleb approach Emilee, who’s sitting on the beach.

**Emilee:** Hey Caleb! What's going on?

**Caleb:** I'm just wondering what you're thinking about the vote?

**Emilee:** Oh, I'm not really sure, to be honest! I did hear Dylan's name come up. Have you heard anything different?

**Caleb:** Danielle, Grahame and I were thinking of voting out Ryan tonight, they have a lot of power in the game. They’re running a six-person alliance and they got Dreamer out easily.

**Emilee (surprised):** Oh, man, I should've figured something else was going on!

**Caleb:** I think they’re one of those people who just goes with whatever's good for their game and doesn't care about loyalty. If we can get you and one other person, it’d be great, or if worse comes to worse, I can use my Extra Vote.

**Emilee:** I can ask around if you'd like, it seems like a lot of people are pretty set on Dylan though!

**Caleb:** Well, we're trying to flush out Ryan and Aishia's votes on Timmy, then it could be 6-3-2 or something.

**Emilee:** Oh gosh, that's complicated. Wait, who is in Ryan’s six-person alliance?

**Caleb:** Myself, Danielle, Melissa, Ryan, Tyler and Timmy.

**Emilee:** Wowzers, where have I been for the past 20-something days?

We can now see Emilee, Aishia, Ryan and Danielle talking in the woods.

**Emilee:** Caleb just came up to me and made a pitch for why Ryan should go. He told me that he's trying to get Ryan and Aishia to throw their votes at Timmy, so that he can send Ryan home!

**Aishia:** Wow, that little snake!

**Ryan:** Yikes, he really hates me.

**Emilee:** He said that you have a lot of power in the game and are running a 6-person alliance. He said it's between you, Danielle, Mel, Tyler and Timmy? Is that true?

**Ryan (feigning shock):** WHAT!? No way!  I promise you I am not in that alliance. They did try to form something with Danielle and I when we merged but we’ve never talked since then.

**Danielle (lying):** There was talks of an alliance that Caleb mentioned to counter the cross tribal alliance you guys had before the merge. At the same time, Caleb is twisting it - Ryan is definitely not leading it.

**Aishia:** This guy is such a mess!

**Emilee:** God, this is crazy. I still trust you guys.

**Ryan:** Thank you so much, are we sure Dylan is still the right target?

**Aishia (shrugging):** I’m down with either one.

We can now see that Ryan and Danielle are the only ones left talking.

**Ryan:** I think Caleb should be the vote tonight. I don't feel safe with him around after what he's done.

**Danielle:** Well, the problem with that is we'd need to organize the votes around it since they seem to want Dylan out.

**Ryan:** If everyone hates Dylan he'll be easier to vote off later. Caleb is the trouble now.

**Danielle:** Yeah, I totally agree with you on that - if you can find a majority I'm voting him out. We should get our second alliance, sans Caleb, together.

**Ryan (nodding):** Yeah, let’s do that.

We can now see that Melissa, Tyler and Timmy have joined them.

**Ryan:** We need to get Caleb out guys.

**Danielle:** Yeah, Caleb is currently trying to throw this alliance under the bus.

**Melissa (laughing):** I’m not surprised, he’s always been a snake.

**Tyler:** Oh, his ass needs to go!

We can now see that Dylan has joined them.

**Dylan:** What’s the vote tonight guys?

**Tyler:** Caleb, he’s been running around throwing everyone under the bus.

**Dylan:** I’m fine with that.

The scene shifts to Caleb and Melissa talking in the shelter.

**Caleb:** I know you’ve had beef with Aishia before.

**Melissa:** Yeah, she screwed me over big time.

**Caleb:** Well, she’s quite close to Ryan and if we can’t vote her off, why don’t we vote off Ryan tonight?

**Melissa (nodding):** I’m down for that.

We can now see Aishia and Melissa talking close to the hammock.

**Melissa:** So I heard from Caleb that apparently you and Ryan are really close.

**Aishia (shocked):** Wow… I can't believe he said that!

**Melissa:** Yep, he basically said "we can't vote for Aishia but we can take out Ryan and split them up".

**Aishia:** Me and Ryan aren't even close! This is bullsh\*t.

**Melissa:** He was trouble on my original tribe, did the same thing, made up sh\*t about everyone and tried to play everyone against each other.

**Aishia:** I want him gone tonight. He's a snake!

The cameras now show Aishia alone, as Caleb walks by her.

**Aishia (passive-aggressively):** Peachy.

Caleb turns around.

**Aishia (shrugging):** Just don't know why you tryna play me like that. But whatevs. We good, it's gucci. We all finna get what's coming to us.

**Caleb (confused):** What?

**Aishia:** I heard you’re coming after me. Not what I like to hear, Caleb.

**Caleb:** I never said that?

**Aishia (rolling her eyes):** Mmhmm.

**Caleb:** Who told you that? And what would possess me to even go after you?

**Aishia:** Multiple sources said you’re blabbing your mouth about me being a "dangerous player", how I need to be split up as soon as I'm not immune.

**Caleb:** Well people are spreading rumors! I've never mentioned you being a "dangerous player". Who told you that in particular?

**Aishia:** I can't say, I don’t snitch on people I trust. I also heard that the Timmy vote was fake. I heard that your real target's not Timmy, and you just want to split me up from voting how I want to tonight.

**Caleb (shaking his head):** Oh wow. That's rich. I don't want to split you up.

**Aishia:** Just to be clear, your vote tonight's going where?

**Caleb:** Timmy, like I said.

**Aishia:** M’kay, well I'll consider that plan. Only if you promise me you were not trying to get me out.

**Caleb:** I promise that I'm not trying to get you out. I swear on my life!

As Caleb leaves to talk to other people, Aishia rolls her eyes.

We can now see Caleb approach Mel on the beach.

**Caleb:** So you told Aishia that I wanted her gone? I'm not angry, just curious.

**Melissa (laughing sarcastically):** Nope, she is playing you, but hey you believe what you want!

**Caleb:** Don't worry, I believe you.

**Melissa (rolling her eyes):** Honestly, I am done with you lot making up lies! If you actually tried to get to know me at all, you wouldn't even question that! I believe in honesty and loyalty and am sick of being used! *(storms out)*

We can now see that Caleb has joined Grahame, Danielle and Emilee in camp.

**Caleb:** Did one of you girls mention the Timmy vote being fake to Aishia? Because she knows about it, she interrogated me.

**Danielle (lying):** No, I didn’t!

**Emilee (lying too):** Wh-what? No? Did someone rat us out?

**Grahame:** What the hell’s goin’ on?

**Caleb:** I think that we should just go with Timmy tonight, so I can win back her trust, then we can vote Ryan next time.

**Emilee (confused):** Wait, so are you saying the plan really IS Timmy now?

**Grahame:** I think we should just do Dylan y’all.

The scene then shifts to Aishia quickly approaching Timmy in the woods.

**Aishia:** Write Caleb tonight, he just told me "some of us were thinking about voting Timmy tonight".

**Timmy:** Okay.

We can now see that the Fearsome Fivesome have once again reunited on the beach to talk about the vote.

**Aishia:** I am voting C-A-L-E-B tonight. I just found out from Melissa he's trying to get Ryan out, then next vote ME!

**Ryan:** Yeah I heard that too, is the vote Caleb then?

**Emilee:** I think so, yeah!

**Grahame:** I don’t know, guys. Yeah Caleb’s a mess but I don’t want to give Dylan the opportunity to slip further in the game.

**Aishia:** Who cares! Caleb’s coming after me and Ryan, he needs to go!

**Emilee:** I don’t like that Caleb’s coming after you guys, but I don’t have any relationship with Dylan either.

**Danielle:** We need to come to a decision guys.

As Danielle’s confessional is displayed, we can see the tribe picking up their torches and heading to Tribal Council.

#### Tribal Council

We can see the Ganesha tribe arriving at Tribal Council, sitting in front of the host.

**Probst:** We’ll now bring in the first member of our jury. Dreamer, voted out at the last Tribal Council.

Dreamer comes in, all eyes on her, pink dress and laced heels, looking hot as hell. She sits on the jury bench and gives the jury her best bitchy look.

**Probst:** Aishia, congrats on winning immunity! Do you think you needed it?

**Aishia:** Thanks, it was a hard challenge! As for your question... nope, but it's better to have it when not needed then need it and not have it. *(shrugs)*

**Probst:** Dylan, do you think you can make it to the end?

**Dylan:** There might be a chance that I could survive 39 days. But sometimes I think I can make it and sometimes not.

Grahame smirks.

**Probst:** Grahame, are you afraid that an idol might be played tonight?

**Grahame:** I mean, yes, it's somethin' to consider but I don't think an idol will be played tonight. The original Hara tribe seem to be the only people that might have an idol, meanin' there's likely only one or two idols in play regardless.

**Probst:** Caleb, do you think some people might be harder to beat at the end?

**Caleb:** Yes, for sure! There are some people dictating what’s going on right now but this vote tonight is about survival for me, not taking out the biggest threat.

Timmy frowns, while Ryan shakes their head.

**Probst:** Ryan, are you confident that you're gonna stay tonight?

**Ryan:** Yes I am. *(smiles)*

Dreamer rolls her eyes on the jury.

**Probst:** Danielle, how are you basing your vote for this tribal council?

**Danielle:** Well, today was a bit chaotic, but in that chaos we shall thrive! It’s about getting rid of the least trustworthy player, the one with the least connections and who wasn’t able to save themselves. It’s gonna be hard because I like everyone here but I’m going with the majority tonight. *(nods)*

**Probst:** Alright, well with that, it is time to vote. Melissa, you’re up.

No voting confessionals are shown.

**Probst:** I’ll go tally the-

**Caleb (cutting him off):** Wait Jeff!

All eyes turn to him.

**Caleb:** I’m gonna play my Extra Vote tonight.

**Probst:** Alright, go cast your second vote.

Caleb stands up to go vote, as Timmy looks nervous.

Caleb comes back and sit down.

**Probst:** I’ll go tally the votes.

As Probst goes to retrieve the urn, Grahame strokes his beard, waiting for the results.

**Probst:** If anyone has a Hidden Immunity Idol and would like to play it, now would be the time do so.

No one stands.

**Probst:** I’ll read the votes. First vote…

**TIMMY**.

Timmy rolls his eyes, while Caleb nods.

**TIMMY**. (2-0)

Timmy stares at Caleb.

**DYLAN**. (2-1)

Dylan is shocked, not expecting any votes.

**CALEB**. (2-1-1)

Caleb bites his lips, very worried.

**CALEB**. (2-2-1)

Caleb shakes his head, while Ryan smiles.

**CALEB**. (3-2-1)

Melissa nods, while Tamsyn frowns.

**CALEB**. (4-2-1)

Aishia smirks, while Caleb put his head in his hands.

**CALEB**. (5-2-1)

Danielle looks on, confident in her decision.

Thirteenth person voted out and second member of our jury… **Caleb**.

Caleb sighs, and stands up. Grahame looks at him, wondering if this was the best decision.

**Probst**: That’s six, that’s enough. I need you to bring me your torch.

Tamsyn seems confused and looks around for answers, while Dreamer shakes her head.

**Probst**: Caleb, the tribe has spoken. Time for you to go.

As Caleb leaves, Dylan seems relieved.

**Probst**: Well, you guys came to yet another near-unanimous decision tonight. How does this reflect on the dynamics of the tribe? We'll have to wait and see. You guys can head back to camp, good night.

## Tribal Council- Ganesha
