Sis Is On Borrowed Time

**Sis Is On Borrowed Time** is the second episode of *Survivor 1 (US)*.

## Story

 The Tau tribe returned to camp after Tribal Council. Gloria thanks everyone for standing by her and says she was really nervous. Owen hugged her and Trina said that she thinks Rocky’s exit proved that they all made the right call. Yun and Sage head off and comment on how Owen was immediately all over Gloria as soon as tribal ended. Yun noted that she felt as though they separated on purpose so they wouldn’t think they were a couple. Sage agreed and said they needed to be weary of them. Back at the shelter, Gloria thanked Trina again for saving her and Trina repeated that she’d wanted Rocky out so the decision was easy. Owen repeated that they owed her.

 The next morning at the Fiefia tribe, Madi and Kit woke up before anyone else and decided to go idol searching. They searched in trees, in bushes, in shrubs. Kit even climbed a tree to look for it. Eventually, Madi came across a strange shell that seemed out of place and noticed a red logo. She called for Kit and the two started digging towards it. Madi opened up the package and read the note which explained that she had found a Hidden Immunity Idol. Kit squeals and the two jump up and down. Kit exclaimed that this was perfect and Madi smiled brightly. Madi tells Kit that she must keep it a secret and Kit crosses her heart. The two are then alarmed by Martha screaming “WAKE UP! RISE AND SHINE!”. Kit looked to Madi and told her to grab as many melons as she can on the way back so it can look like they were looking for fruit. Madi nodded. The guys groaned and tossed and turned, trying to block out the noise but eventually gave in. Boston rolled his eyes and said he was going to rinse off in the water. Lamar and Spenser agreed to join him. Once they arrived there, Lamar noted on how over Martha he was. Boston agreed and said that she was making camp life a living hell. Spenser wanted her out but was nervous she had an idol because she was always the first one up.

 At the Loto tribe, Jordyn and Jarrett worked on starting the fire. Jarrett went back and forth over a thousand times with the flint. Jordyn watched him try and try over again and continue to fail. Jordyn smiles at him and tells him that he’ll get it eventually. Jarret keeps trying and eventually stands up and says he needs a break for a second. When he turns away, Jordyn rubbed the flint at the right angle and got a flame going. She shouted to him that he got it and that while it was delayed, he’d got a flame. Jarrett turned around and cheered, he felt very proud of himself and thanked Jordyn for the help. She gave him a high five and he said he wouldn’t of been able to do it without her. The two discuss targets and agree Freddie is sketchy and has to go. Jarrett asks if Jordyn thinks he got anything on his adventure and she thinks it’s possible, but that it’s likely not an idol. Jarrett agrees.

 The tribes gather with Jeff for the Reward and Immunity Challenge. Jeff revealed that the winning tribes would not only win immunity but also fishing gear to take back to camp. Jeff explained the challenge and it was essentially a relay race, each to be complete with two tribemates and the final one being completed by one. Loto and Fiefia had to sit someone out. Paloma volunteered for Loto. Fiefia on the otherhand, had a harding time choosing. Boston was adamant that Martha sit out but she wasn’t having it at all. Eventually, Madi said she could if they really needed her to but Boston stayed solid that Martha needed to sit out. They took a vote and everyone felt Madi should compete instead of Martha. Martha kicked sand and headed to sit out with Paloma. In the first leg of the race, it was Boston and Kit from Fiefia, Freddie and Marissa from Loto, and Trina and Owen from Tau. Fiefia and Tau had aimed to send their strongest competitors first, while Loto wanted to get their slowest ones out of the way. Boston and Kit finish very quickly, giving their tribe a massive lead. Madi and Lamar take on the next leg of the race. A little while later, Trina and Owen finish and pass the next part of the leg off to Gloria and Yun. Eventually, Freddie and Marissa finish, passing it off to Jarrett and Jordyn. Despite being given a massive head start, Lamar and Madi really struggle and the other tribes catch up to them with ease. Despite starting last, Jarrett and Jordyn muscle through this leg of the race and despite all odds, manage to finish first, allowing DJ to work on the final leg of the race which was a puzzle. Lamar and Madi continue to struggle and Martha yells at them to hurry up from the sit out bench. Eventually, Gloria and Yun also pass them and allow Sage to begin the puzzle. DJ and Sage both make solid work on their puzzles. Spenser peeks over, trying to give himself an advantage for whenever Madi and Lamar finally make it. Eventually, DJ yells out for Jeff. Jeff verifies the puzzle and declares that Loto has won immunity and that it was now down to Fiefia and Tau. Madi and Lamar continue to struggle, while Sage makes quick work on the puzzle, peeking over at DJ’s finished one. In no time, Sage shouts out for Jeff and wins immunity for the Tau tribe. Martha shakes her head and asks Paloma to get up before kicking the bench over. Jeff congratulates Loto and Tau on winning Immunity. Sage grabs the statue, while DJ and Jarrett encourage Jordyn to take the statue for carrying their tribe in the challenge. She smiles and collects it. Jeff reminds Fiefia that they will have to head to tribal council and vote someone out. The tribes head out.

 Back at the Fiefia tribe, Martha immediately walks off and says she needs to chill out. Lamar says he’ll refill their water bottles and mopes. Madi apologizes to Boston, Kit, and Spenser for her challenge performance and they reassure her that it’s okay. Kit suggests that they split the votes between Lamar and Martha in case Martha has an idol. Madi suggests that Martha probably doesn’t have one, but the guys are both in agreement with Kit’s plan. They propose that they both vote Martha while Kit and Madi vote for Lamar. Before Madi can get a word in, Kit agrees. Kit heads off to find Martha and consoles her. She agrees that it was a great injustice that she didn’t get to play and that Kit only voted for Madi because she knew everyone else would and didn’t want to get voted out. Kit tells Martha that the guys are splitting the votes because they think she has an idol. She suggests that the three girls get together to vote for Boston. Kit adds that if Lamar finds out that Boston and Spenser are plotting against him that he’d be willing to flip too. Martha was on board and thanked Kit. She said Kit was like a daughter to her.

 Kit talks to Lamar and informs him of the guys’ plan and says it’s because they’re scared of Martha having an idol. Lamar noted that it added up because they’d told him they were worried of an idol. He felt that they went for him because he did poorly in the challenge and they felt Kit would be more willing to vote for him than Madi. Kit reported all of the good news to Madi who was less than pleased. She feigned approval but slowly slipped in concerns, such as challenges, how Spenser would react, Lamar telling the guys, Martha flipping out. Kit didn’t seem to fazed by any of these possibilities.

 Madi talks to Lamar and expresses that she feels that Martha is going to continue to fail in challenges. She explains that them and Kit will still hold the majority once Martha’s gone but that they might have a chance at winning out until merge and still using the guys as numbers. Lamar agrees but says it’ll be hard to trust them after they turned on him. Madi smiles and says that he can trust her and she’ll have his back no matter what happens. Lamar told her he’d think about it but that they’d have to talk to Kit about it as well.

 Right before tribal, Madi tells Kit that her and Lamar were talking and they’re having second thoughts about keeping Martha. She goes over “their” concerns. Kit shoots it down and insists that voting for Boston is the right move. Lamar heads over and asks what the plan is and before they can respond, the tribe has to head to tribal and they still don’t quite know where they’re voting.

 At tribal council, the Fiefia tribe enters with their torches. Jeff asks that they light them. They sit down and tribal begins. Jeff asks Madi how she felt after the challenge as most of the blame could easily be placed on her and Lamar. She said that she was heartbroken but that her tribe reassured her in the end and she is glad they didn’t lose respect for her. Jeff turns to Martha and noted that she threw the bench over during the challenge. Martha nods and said she’d do it again. Spenser rolls his eyes and Jeff asks why. Spenser said that everyone is done with Martha’s temper tantrums. Jeff asks if anyone else can attest to feeling this way. Boston pipes up and said that Martha had yelled at him before the challenge because he felt she should sit out. Martha turned to him and said she was just as capable as Madi and that it was hurtful for him to be so deadset on making her sit out. While this fight ensues, Madi, Kit and Lamar sneakily whisper to one another. Then, Jeff commences the voting to take place. By a vote of 4-1, Martha was voted out of the tribe. She scowled at Kit and grabbed her torch. She slammed it down in front of Jeff and he twitches from the shockwaves of it. He snuffs out her torch and she leaves without saying a word to anyone. Jeff proposed that since the tribe voted together, maybe they’re united, or maybe it was all a facade. With that, he excused them and they headed back to camp.
