I No Longer Count Him As My Tribe Member

**I No Longer Count Him As My Tribe Member** is the sixth episode of *Survivor: The Australian Outback*.

## Story

### Day 16

Binnu wakes up after yesterday's ugly Tribal Council. Nobody talks with each other and the tensions is huge. Howard approaches everybody to go together to the Final 5, because he's not mad and he just wants to survive somehow. David and Nora hug him.

At Nanga tribe, Egypt, Kaylie and Jermaine discuss the merge situation. Kaylie tells them she's worried about Ezekiel flipping to Binnu people. Jermaine says they have to win immunity, so they will be sure they still have six people. Egypt says it doesn't matter because if Ezekiel flips there's going to be 5-5 anyway.

### Day 17

The Binnu tribe finally won the Reward Challenge. They've started to celebrate their victory.

They sit in the circle eating doritos and talking about the game. Howard doesn't say much, so the tribe tries to comfort him. Vivian starts to talk to Howard how strong he is and that he shouldn't be worried. Nora says they have to win the next Immunity Challenge so the whole five can move on. Howard is thankful for tribe's support.

Back at Nanga tribe, Ezekiel and Kai went for fishing. They talk in the water about the game. Kai says he hopes they will win tommorow, because it will be done in a losing situation. Ezekiel tells Kai the tribe needs them for food.

### Day 18

After the Immunity Challenge, Binnu returned to their camp. It's going to be four of them on the merge, because tonight somebody will be voted out. Howard is pissed off. Nora and Vivian go to wash themselves as they're totally exhausted. Nora tells Vivian it's terrible they will be in miniority at the merge. Vivian says they can't give up, because there's always a chance they can win it. Nora asks what she wants to do. Vivian says she's definietly keeping Nora and Ray as they are in her alliance, so the question is to vote out either David or Howard.

Raymond and Howard have a conversation. Howard almost cries when Raymond tells him to be strong and patient. Howard still doesn't say much, so Raymond tells him he can help him but he has to give him a name to write.

Howard names Nora as the person they can vote out and Raymond shakes his hand and leaves. Howard tells out loud to himself that Raymond is dumb.

Howard talks with Nora and Vivian about Raymond throwing Nora's name. Nora is shocked but Vivian is tired of hearing Howard's speach. Howards tells them he's going to vote for Ray, because he's a threat and playing under the radar. Howard leaves and after that Vivian laughs about his approach. Nora is worried anyway.

David and Raymond talked while watching Nora, Vivian and Howard talking. David thinks they can strategize together. Raymond tells David about Howard telling him to vote for Nora. David asks Raymond is he going to do it. Raymond says he doesn't know yet, but the best option is to vote out Howard so they will keep Nora and Vivian close. David thinks it's a good idea, because they can vote out the girls later on.

In the end, Howard is voted out by a vote of 4-1.

## Challenges

* Reward
* Immunity
**Challenge:** **Blind Leading the Blind**
The tribes will select one member of each team to act as their "eyes" while the other members are blindfolded. Sitting atop two towers, the "eyes" must guide their blindfolded tribe members through a series of obstacles. First, the blindfolded tribe members must place two logs between a sawhorse. Then, they must switch a pair of traps, one on the table, the other in the water. Next, they must grab a bucket and fill it with water. Then, they must place the water in a larger bucket. When the large bucket overflows, they must then place the picnic basket on the table with a barrel of Mountain Dew. The first tribe to successfully complete the course wins.

**Reward:** Doritos and Mountain Dew.

**Winner:** Binnu**Challenge:** **Stairway to Heaven**

The tribes must place twelve poles of varying lengths into their holders to form a staircase, and then run up it. One at a time, three ride a zipline to a pontoon, grab a bag of puzzle pieces, and swim back, then all three climb a ladder back to the platform, where the final three solve the puzzle, a timeline.

**Winner:** Nanga
