## EPISODE SUMMARY

Immediately after Annie was voted out of the Heroes tribe, both tribes were added to a Reward Challenge group chat, for the tribe swap and reward challenge. Three captains were chosen by the hosts, based off previous performance in challenges. Ben, Cody and Mark were the captains, allowing the remaining castaways to be split by use of a random name generator.

The new tribes were:

**HEROES 2.0 -** Mark, Bec, Byron, Issy

**VILLAINS 2.0 -** Ben, Michael, Sarah, Sean

**PURPLE TRIBE -** Cody, Armando, Patricia, Mitch

At the newly formed Skagafjörõur tribe, Armando, the only original Hero, used his social skills to try to integrate himself with the three original Villains. Camp life was initially quiet, with Mitch, Cody and Patricia talking of voting for Armando should they go to tribal council. A two person alliance was built between Patricia and Armando, the latter of which reached out in hopes to blindside Mitch.

Heroes 2.0 saw four original heroes still together, in two tight groups of two - Bec and Byron were together, and Issy and Mark were also quite tight.

Meanwhile, at Villains 2.0, Sean was on the outs, as he was the only original hero on a tribe of original villains. He used this as an opportunity to try to bond with Ben, the tribe captain.

#### **Player Of The Episode:**

***Sean***

Despite being on the outs, Sean solidified new alliances, which would help him in the future.

### **Summary**

Skagafajour went to their first Tribal Council on Day 19, as a result of being unable to name their own tribe in the immunity challenge. The results from the Second Chance Haven was announced to be Annie returning. Tribal Council was short, but there was still madness, right before the votes were cast, Armando pulled out an idol, that was fake. A 2-2-1 tie vote between Armando and Mitch resulted in a revote. On a revote, Armando became the first member of the jury.

### **The Vote**

**FIRST VOTE:** **4-2-2**

 **Armando** | Cody
 **Mitch** | Armando
 RESULT = 2-2-1
TIE

**REVOTE: 3-2**

 **Armando** | Annie
Cody
 **Mitch** | Armando

### **Voting Confessionals**

> "I see you as a challenge and social threat Dylan" - **Sarah**

> "Blindside on Sarah. Quiet on tribe, have to vote someone" - **Ben**
>
>

> "I'm voting Sarah because she hasn't been very active in the chat. She also never responded to my private message despite being online... She's made it clear she doesn't want to work with me or be active in challenges - so that's not someone I want around. I've tried convincing a few people to vote with me, but it seems like everyone has different ideas to what they wanna do - I just hope I'm not one of those ideas." - **Dylan**

> "I believe this is an alliance move as everyone agrees to vote Dylan out. He is very insistent on backstabbing others because he is afraid to be backstabbed. It is a necessary move for Dylan to leave." - **Patricia**
>
>

> "Well I came in here tonight thinking yes, Sarah. But the majority is divided. Half Dylan and Half Sarah... so... why not get it out there that Dion's name is out there. ;) he's a big threat, a bit of a snake, and comes across like a puppet master and he needs to be put in his place. He cant handle playing with me... this game aint for him. ;P " - **Cody**

> "It honestly breaks my heart to do this. I feel so sad, she seems like a sweet kid. But she's just that...a kid...this game is a lot to take on for a scheduel and i dont think she can be much use with a busy life and school etc. Im so sorry Sarah xx :'(" - **Cody**
