## Challenge

Immunity Challenge: Decode

In this challenge, the castaways had to complete 4 simple challenges, unlocking a set of letters after they complete each one. Then, they had to to unscramble the letters to spell out a phrase, "The End Is Here". Whoever completes the challenge in the fastest time wins immunity.

Winning Castaway:  Sam

## Day 35:

The tenth challenge, Decode, was posted where the castaways had to solve a riddle, win a game of tic-tac-toe, create a maths equation meeting certain criteria and say a phrase in the official language of Tahiti, French. Sam was by far the quickest, making him the first castaway in the final two.

## Day 36:

The challenge results are revealed and Sam has a big decision to make, will he take Glenn or Muzah through with him to the final two.

Glenn and Muzah both decide to not try to influcne Sam, leaving him to make his own decision. Glenn expects to be eliminated as he knows Sam has wanted him eliminated multiple times before. They both reflect on how long their alliance lasted and how loyal they were and wish each other good luck for the results.

## Day 37:

Te Tahoeraa went to tribal council and the vote was read. In a major surprise to Glenn, Sam chooses to take him to the final and Muzah is the 10th person to leave Survivor: Tahiti and the final member of the jury.

 Sam: I am voting for **Muzah** because I think I stand more of a chance in the final against Glenn than Muzah.

## Day 38:

Sam and Muzah attend the final tribal council where they get to discuss their game up until this point and consist the jury to vote for them.

The jury take it in turns to ask their questions and say any words they want to. Sam and Glenn discuss their best moves, their biggest regret and whether they are a freaky gyal. The full questions and responses can be viewed here: Final Tribal Council

After the final tribal council, the jury went to vote. Despite some juror members praising Glenn's game and how he survived so long whilst being a target, the jury unanimously agreed that Sam played the stronger game and deserved the title of the first ever sole survivor.

## Day 39:

The votes are revealed and Sam is crowned as the sole survivor and winner of Survivor: Tahiti.

 Cameron: I am voting for **Sam** due to the fact of the amount of stuff he's done in the whole game. I didn't see a lot of Glenn so I can't fully say he did more but seeing the total control Sam had shows how he really conquered the game.

 Cian: I am voting for **Sam** because while I always believed him to have played a more complete game overall to get where he is, this final round of questions & answers have proven that he executed a game plan (with adjustments where necessary) and got here based on planning and execution of strategy, whereas Glenn seems to have lucked himself into a spot in the final 2.

 Lucius: I am voting for **Sam**, Glenn should be thankful Sam left him heavily injured, but breathing

 Miguel: I am voting for **Sam**. Glenn has played a very good game, he has always taken the right decision on who to vote in every tribal council. He has also known how to manage his alliance with Muzah until the end and he always knew who were his biggest opponents. However, Sam has made an incredible game. Even when I've tried to use him for my benefit, he has known what to do in every moment. He has ruled the challenges, most of the tribal councils and he has answered all our questions in a very coherent way.

 Muzah: I am voting for **Sam** because he really did just play an outstanding game and managed to get through while being a big target, Glenn did play a good game too to an extent, he just didn’t really articulate the positives very well.
