The Generation Gap

## Subpages

**The Generation Gap** is the second episode of Borneo.

## Story

### Day 4

The episode started with Pagong trying to find ways to get food, only to find two rats for protein. Most of the tribemates complained about eating the rodents, while Rick claimed that he was still strong enough not to eat them.
Christopher, Ashley, and Ben tried to fish, but to no avail. They talked about working together. Forming the very first alliance of the series.

In a confessional, Unique complained about Rick eating their remaining food supply without asking permission from his tribemates. Rick, on the other hand, said in another confessional that Unique and Stella was not pulling her weight doing camp chores. Unique and Stella form another alliance from their hatred of Rick.

At Pagong, Richard abrasively sent out orders to his tribe to make a hut. Dane and Alyssa praised his work ethic, but they and the rest of the tribe were getting fed up with his overbearing personality. Erika even complained that Richard doesn't give them ample rest for all the day's work and that she will likely vote him out should they lose an Immunity Challenge.

### Day 5

As the challenge approaches, Back at Pagong camp, with Christopher, Tajha, and Benny still failing to catch fish, Rudy cooked rice and papaya for lunch. Benny revealed in a confessional that he's scared to reveal he is gay, because the Construction Worker is homophobic. With Rick away, Ben;s revelation became a healthy discussion during lunchtime. Later on, Benny approached Rick and revealed his sexuality. But to Ben's surprise, Rick did not feel uncomfortable talking to him. Instead, Rick revealed in a confessional that Benny was one of the nicest people he has ever met and lauded him for his leadership skills.

Back at Tagi beach, the younger tribe members ate papaya. Erika, on the other hand, couldn't stomach it and decided to drink water instead. Her tribemate Shawn even confessed that he pitied Erika because she was sick and yet still trying to pull her weight. Later on, while the rest of Pagong tribe were having lunch, Erika walked through the woods, and started vomiting.

Dane complained in a confessional that his teammates were lazy and not doing many chores. Shawn, on the other hand, complained that "If you're not working as hard as him, you're not working hard". Savannah also fumed that B.B. "Doesn't bridge the age gap." But Dane was firm about pushing his tribemates too hard.

Savannah and Phillip went hiking to find more food (they invited Erika to come with them, but she refused). Savannah praised Phillip for making their stay in the game more bearable and fun.

### Day 6

Tagi's day started with Erika and Richard arguing about where should the shelter be placed, as high tides threatened to wash their shelter out (their hut was constructed almost near the shoreline). As a solution to not needing to carry their hut anywhere, Erika decided to put logs to ward the waves off. The move was not well received by the tribe, demanding that the shelter should be relocated to higher ground. Dane got fed up and argued with Erika about the plan.

Both tribes received Tree Mail informing them of their next Immunity Challenge where it was speculated that food would be involved.

For their second Immunity Challenge, Tree Mail hinted that the two tribes would go to the "First Annual Survivor Benefit Buffet", only to reveal that they were to eat *Butok,* a beetle larva. It was a close race, even ending up in a tie. At the tiebreaker round, both tribes had to pick the most squeamish member of the other tribe. Tagi chose Pagong's Rick and Pagong chose Tagi's Jessenia. In the end, Rick was first to swallow his grub, thus winning Pagong's first challenge.

After their first loss, Tagi was torn between the sick Erika and the abrasive Richard. Richard even considered to vote Shawn out for stepping up against him.

In the end, Erika's sickness cost her dearly as she became Pagong's first casualty in a 5-3 vote.
