## Story

### Day 13

Molavu tribe wakes up after yesterday's Tribal Council. Eve is sad to see Kat gone. Spencer joins her. Eve tells Spencer she's really happy to play with him. Spencer says that he told Brittany and Gabriela about voting Kat, but he's 100% loyal to Eve and Rod at this point. Eve says she knows that. Spencer asks Eve are Brittany or Gabriela future targets. Eve says she wants to stick with Spencer, Rod and Asia, but they have to look for Max, because he's a wild card.

Brittany, Rod and Keisha are at camp watching Spencer and Eve talking. Rod asks Brittany how she feels. Brittany says she feels weird to see how Spencer and Eve are close. Keisha agrees. Rod says right now they have to focus on blindsiding Max next, because he's really a wild card and he wanted to flip with Kat last night. Brittany agrees.

Asia calls everyone to read new Tree Mail. It's the Reward Challenge. They slowly getting ready for it and then they leave for the challenge.

Both tribes arrive at today's Reward Challenge. Tavewa tribe sees that Kat was voted out from Molavu tribe. Jeff explains the rules of the challenge. Each tribe will need to hop over a series of tables to a pile of large sandbags. They will then need to search through the sandbags to find a lever. Pulling the lever will release sixty smaller sandbags, which tribes will need to collect. Using the small sandbags, they will need to hit a spinning target, raising a flag. The first tribe to raise all three flags wins rewarad. The reward is coffee and pastries. The challenge begins. In the end Molavu wins another reward. They have to send one person from Tavewa to Ghost Island. They sent Rivka. Both tribes are going back to their camps and Rivka is heading to Ghost Island.

Rivka arrives at Ghost Island. She feels very weak today as her tribe haven't won anything yet. Rivka smashes the urn and sees "Nope. No game for you." She starts to cry as she falls down to her knees.

Back at Molavu, the whole tribe is celebrating their reward challenge victory and having a lot of food. Everyone is happy how they do well.

Asia and Rod are talking while making themselves coffee. Asia says how glad she is to be here.

Rod and Asia are walking away from camp. Rod tells Asia that right now it's them, Eve and Spencer. Asia is excited about it. She says she would love to keep Brittany and Gabriela over Max. Rod says Max is really sneaky and dangerous, he was ready to flip with Kat at original Molavu members.

Max sees how Asia and Rod are talking. He tells Brittany that he doesn't like it. Brittany says that Asia and Rod are sneaky. Max says Asia has to go next.

Tavewa tribe returns from Immunity Challenge. They want to eat something, so they're getting ready to cook and make fire.

Libby and Jameson are working hard around camp. Jameson is making fire and Libby goes for the water to boil it later. Coen and Jackson are sitting in camp while everyone is working on food or cleaning themselves in the ocean. Coen says how it sucks to lose everything. Jackson says he hopes they're going to win immunity at least. Coen asks what is going to happen when they're going to lose it. Jackson says that he thinks that himself and Clarke are in trouble. Coen says he wants someone to work with so maybe they can protect each other. They shake hands.

### Day 14

Both tribes arrive at Immunity Challenge. Rivka returns from Ghost Island. Jeff explains the rules of the challenge. Starting on the beach, one runner from each tribe will grab a boogie board attached to a large spool of rope and race across a series of floating balance beams to a set of three satchels with numbered tiles. Grabbing a satchel, the runner will then get on the boogie board in the water, where their tribemates will have to reel them onto shore. Once the runner returns to shore, another person goes out. Once they have all three satchels, the tribes will make their way to the finish deck, where they will used the numbered tiles to solve a combination lock, obtaining a key, which unlocks the tribe's sliding puzzle. The first tribe to finish their puzzle wins immunity. The challenge begins and in the end Tavewa wins another immunity challenge sending Molavu to Tribal Council once again.

Molavu are back to their camp.

Max is really pissed off. He looks at Brittany and Gabriela and says "Asia, that's simple". They nod that they're ok with this.

Max talks with Spencer and Keisha. He tells them that he thinks the whole tribe is going to be on board with voting out Asia tonight so it would be great to have them so they can chill tonight and stop scrambling. Keisha and Spencer don't really know what to say. Spencer says he's cool with it. Keisha says she's going to be in touch with Max.

Keisha and Eve are talking. She says that there's a plan, but she wants to be loyal so she needs Eve to think about it. Eve asks what's going on. Keisha says that Max is collecting people to vote out Asia and as far as she knows all Tavewa people are with him. Eve says it's 4-4 then. Keisha says that's right, so she needs to think what to do. Eve says that she would love to vote out Max, because he creates chaos and also he's making Molavu people scrumble right now instead of having a chill day. Keisha says that's right.

Eve, Rod, Spencer and Asia are talking. Eve asks Spencer about Max vote. Spencer says that for him, it's obvious. Eve says Keisha has told her that Tavewa people along with Max are going to blindside Asia. Asia gets mad.

Spencer promises he wasn't going to vote for Asia tonight, but he had to tell Max he's ok with this and he thinks Keisha did the same thing. Rod says Max is the best option to do, because Brittany may be loyal if she stays. Asia agrees that she's going to appreciative. Eve says she's really worried about Max having an idol. Keisha joins them. Keisha says that she's paranoid. Eve says tells Keisha that she thinks the best option is to split the votes. Spencer asks between who. Eve says that 4 on Max, 4 on Gabriela and that's all. They all agree.

Rod talks with Brittany. He tells her that he knows about blindsiding Asia. Brittany agrees that she heard Max saying something like this. Rod says that right now they have everyone to vote for Max except for her and Gabriela. Brittany says she's in 100%.

Brittany talks with Gabriela. She tells her about voting out Max. Gabriela asks who is going to vote for him. Brittany says that it's going to be 7 votes on Max and 1 vote for Asia from Max. Gabriela says it's really risky. Brittany agrees. Gabriela wonders why would they target Max instead of them. Brittany says that he's really gunning for Asia. Gabriela says she's worried, but she's going to vote for Max then.

Later on, Keisha sits with Max. Max says how happy he is to vote out Asia. Keisha tells him that she wants to be honest with him in the same way as she was with Eve. Max is overwhelmed. Keisha tells him that the whole tribe is going to vote for Gabriela, because they want to keep Molevu strong right now. Max asks what about Spencer and Brittany. Keisha says they're going to vote for Max. Max is pissed off.

The tribe goes to Tribal Council. Everyone is really stressed about tonight's outcome.

The Molavu tribe arrive at Tribal Council. The conversation is about Max being a wild card, Gabriela not making connections and Asia having a problem with Max around. Then they vote. Jeff asks if anybody has a Hidden Immunity Idol and they want to play it, now it's time to do so. Max stands up and plays his idol. Eve is smiling and Asia rolls her eyes. Then out of nowhere Gabriela stands up and shows her idol saying that she's not feeling comfortable enough in this tribe. Rod panics. Keisha looks at Eve and Asia. Jeff reads the votes and there's 4 votes Max and 4 votes Gabriela, but because they used their idols, it's 0-0 vote and they're safe for tonight's vote. Everyone is really shocked and don't know what to do. Brittany starts to panic. Jeff tells everyone to immidiately vote again. Brittany hides her head as she thinks it's going to be her. Jeff reads the votes again. There are 1 vote Eve, 1 vote Asia, 3 votes Spencer and 3 votes Brittany. Brittany starts to panic and Spencer is shocked to have 3 votes on himself. Jeff tells them that they have to revote. Rod is surprised it's their third vote and it's going to be between Brittany and Spencer. Brittany and Spencer can't vote. Jeff counts new votes and reads. Keisha is worried about rocks so she changed her vote from Spencer to Brittany. Jeff reads 3 votes for Brittany and 2 votes for Spencer. The last vote is for... Spencer. It means they're tied once again and they're deadlocked. The dead silence appears as Keisha just found out it's going to be rocks. She doesn't know how it happened. Max laughs out loud. Brittany smiles all over the place and hugs Gabriela. Jeff says it means Asia, Eve, Keisha and Rod are going to draw rocks. These foursome is really sad and worried right now. Keisha almost cries. Jeff tells them that white rock means they're eliminated. On "three" they need to show their hand. Jeff counts and tells them to reveal. Asia has a white rock and is eliminated from the game. She throws the rock to the fire and leaves quickly to not make herself cry. Max almost dances from the outcome. Asia walks off and Jeff says it was the craziest Tribal Council in the history of Survivor Fanon by Bartosh. They leave to their camp.
