**The final six campers are split into three pairs and must compete in various team-based challenges.**

## Plot

The episode starts off with the camera showing a bird chirp as it feeds it's babies a worm. The camera then cuts to the cabin's and shots of the campers peacefully asleep are shown. However, this peacefulness doesn't last long and the campers are awoken by a helicopter passing overhead. Jada complains about this and Rylee tells her that it's probably Chris just annoying them. The camera then cuts to Chris who smiles and winks at the camera whilst hanging out of the helicopter. Chris greets the viewers and begins to list all of the eliminated campers in order. As he lands, he tells the campers to get out of their cabins and meet him in the center of camp. The campers groan and Ciande asks if they'll get time to change out of their sleep wear and Chris says he'll let them have five minutes to change AFTER he explains the challenge. He calls the next challenge the "Tri-Armed Triathlon," which is a series of three challenges that will be performed by the campers in pairs, handcuffed together, similar to a three-legged race. The winning pair will earn invincibility. Chris also brings up the wimp key, which is a key that can open the handcuffs and is offered at several points during the challenges. Any team that uses the key is eliminated from the contest, and thus cannot win invincibility, but they are excused from competing in the challenges.

After dressing into their everyday clothes, the final six are in the mess hall with: Jaylen and Rylee, Ciande and Lucas, and Jada and George are handcuffed and are about to compete for the first challenge: an eat-off, with one team member force-feeding the other. The eater must keep both arms behind their back, which leaves the feeder with only one arm to use. Ciande and Lucas discuss who'll eat, Rylee and Jaylen argue about who will eat, while Jada tells George he's eating. The food is brought out and looks fairly normal, but Rylee notes that the chicken looks a bit green. Eventually, Jaylen sighs and says he'll eat noting he feels like he might have a stronger stomach than Rylee, and Ciande and Lucas hold a rock-paper-scissors match to see who'll eat. After a match out of best out of three, Ciande wins making Lucas being the partner to eat the food.

Chris announces that the challenge has begun with Rylee forcefully feeds Jaylen who commands her to slow down, but she doesn't hear him due to his mouth being full. Ciande is seen trying to get a pattern going, but Lucas tells Ciande that he needs time to breathe and enjoy the food. Ciande apologizes but states "If we want to win the challenge, we'll have to go quickly." As Jada feeds George, she notices how fast the others are eating and to make the process go faster, Jada tells George to open wide and stuffs the entire food tray at his face. George manages to eat very quickly and ends up finishing first which gives Jada and himself the win. Jada jumps up and down and hugs George.

Jada then takes a whiff of George's breath and her looks like she's about to vomit. Jada tugs on George stating that she has to use the bathroom and runs to the potter potty with George right behind her. In a confessional, George states that he feels like despite Jada can be an evil witch, as Jada vomits, she can actually be nice. He then states that he hopes she didn't take offense to the witch statement and Jada states she didn't. Before the campers move onto the second stage, Chris offers up to the pairs that they can use the wimp key, and Rylee starts walking towards Chris but is halted by Jaylen who says that they aren't stopping until they win. George looks to Jada but Jada shakes her head quickly and notes she isn't giving up just yet.

The next challenge is to go to the beach, take a canoe, and paddle to Boney Island, where they will find a package waiting for them. Jaylen tells Rylee that she'll need to push the canoe into the water due to him doing the eating from the previous round. Rylee tries to protest but then starts to push the canoe in. Jada and George are working together by carrying their canoe into the water, and Lucas doesn't seem interested as Ciande begins talking about her new designs for when she goes back to school. The teams are rowing in the water and Rylee is seen trying to talk to Jaylen. Rylee notes how Ciande, Stella, and Kelly told her in secret that he could be such a softie and wonders why he isn't being as nice to her as he was to the other three girls. Jaylen sighs and tells Rylee it might sound a bit weird but ever since he noticed Rylee and Abe gravitate towards each other, he didn't take a liking to her, despite her turning against him. "For me, it was like whoever he was friends with, tainted my opinion them." Rylee says she isn't friends with Abe and doesn't want to interact with him outside of the season. On George's canoe, he asks Jada if he's a bit too loud, and Jada tells him that he can be a bit, overwhelming at times.

The two wash up on shore first, and quickly get off their canoe. They find the backpacks Chris mentioned earlier and open it, to where they find pieces of the tiki idol that Zoey took from the island back in Into The Woods. Jada gasps and states she thought George put it back. George scratches his head and reveals he didn't know how to get back, so he flushed it down the toilet. The next challenge is to bring one of the broke pieces to the Cave of Treacherous Terror as fast as possible, because the longer you hold onto the doll, the more you get cursed. George is confident and says "this part of the challenge sounds easy!" Which prompts Chris to command the campers to ride piggy-back.

The men pick up their partners and start running into the wilderness of the dreaded Boney Island. After a couple minutes of searching, Jaylen and Rylee believe that they're lost and Rylee tries to look for a map in the backpack while Jaylen takes photos of the wilderness. Rylee groans and takes the camera away from Jaylen stating that they need to focus on the challenge now due to the fact they're lost. Rylee then requests that Jaylen take things more maturely causing Jaylen to ask what her problem is stating they connected a few minutes ago but now she's being all uptight. Rylee sighs stating when she gets into frustrating situations, she tends to act terribly around people which is what happened with her and Kelly. Jaylen puts his arm around Rylee's shoulder stating that it's just a normal human reaction and she doesn't need to worry. Rylee smiles and thanks Jaylen. Jaylen then realizes that they should probably try to look for the cave and tells Rylee to play a song on his mp3 player. Rylee grins and as Jaylen runs with her on his back, she plays kpop despite Jaylen sighing as he hears it. Rylee sings the lyrics as she points out the direction of the cave.

At the cave, Ciande and Lucas arrive first, but when Lucas and Ciande notice a huge centipede and run away screaming. As they run, George and Jada notice them running away from the cave with shocked looks on their faces. Jada shrugs and the two continue to the cave but then run into the wooly beavers and get turned away by them. Lastly, Rylee and Jaylen arrive, and seeing all the previous teams, Jaylen believes they lost but Rylee tells Jaylen to throw the tiki parts in, stating they shouldn't give up. This give them the win of the second challenge and the two celebrate.

The campers meet back together and gather around the three picnic tables, and Chris tallies the scores so far: George and Jada have one point; one point for Jaylen and Rylee; and Ciande and Lucas have nothing. Chris then heads to a different table and uncovers it, revealing wooden heads of the losers, which freaks Lucas out. Ciande calms him down but then points out that there's a Bolton head, stating "Now that, that- will freak you out." The last challenge is to build a totem pole out of the heads in the order that the campers were voted off, which Chris listed at the beginning of the episode, with Alec on the bottom, and Stella on the top of the totem pole. Due to the fact Kelly and Stella were voted out twice, there will be two wooden heads of them.

Both teams examine all the heads and Jaylen picks up Stella's and Kelly's heads remembering the good times they had together. Rylee puts her hand on Jaylen stating that he'll see them once the season is over, which makes Jaylen happy. Rylee then notices Sim's totem and places her hand on it and tells Jaylen they should start building. George and Jada are having a bit of trouble figuring out if Zoey went before or after Kelly got voted out for the first time. Chris then checks up on Ciande and Lucas and he then notices Lucas carving "A+L" in Adam's wooden head. Chris laughs at this but is met by Ciande who shushes him by throwing Alec's head at his shin. Jada says a remark about Hailey which causes George to get upset with her. George states that despite him and Hailey haven't been on the same team, they got along pretty well. However, Jada continues which causes George to storm off and drags Jada along, requesting the wimp key. In then end, Ciande and Lucas manage to come out victorious with completing their totem pole and ending the challenge. Due to all teams having won a point none of them will get invincibility. In the confessional, George complains about Jada and states he'll prank her tonight, but Jada is seen in the potter potty with him and asks what he'll be doing to her. George asks if she likes her hands dipped in water during the night prompting her to kick him in the shin.

At the elimination ceremony, Chris hands out marshmallows to Jaylen, Rylee, George, and Jada. With the team duo of Ciande and Lucas left, this prompts them to look at each other and both start to worry. Ciande looks worried and Lucas bites his nails before Chris gives the final marshmallow to Ciande. Ciande gets up and acts shocked and states why they voted Lucas out instead of her. Jada shrugs and says he was a social threat with not angering many of the eliminated campers. Lucas sighs and tells Ciande not to worry, stating she'll be fine. Lucas gracefully accepts his fate and walks to the Dock of Shame.

Ciande asks Jaylen to borrow his camera and she quickly runs to Lucas. The two exchange goodbyes before Ciande pulls Lucas in and takes a photo of the two of them. Ciande takes out the polaroid photo of the two of them and gives it to Lucas stating that she wants him to have it. Lucas smiles and hugs her before boarding the Dock of Shame and looks excited when he realizes he'll be able to see Adam again.
