Wish I Could Say Sorry

This is the seventh episode of *Survivor: The Seven Vials*

## Challenges

**Reward Challenge:** *Jump In!*
Each tribe selects a goal-keeper, who stands on a platform above water and in front of a net. One at a time, members of the opposite tribe will run up, jump out over the water and throw the ball at the net, while the goalkeeper tries to deflect the shot. First tribe to score five goals wins the challenge.
**Reward:** A tribal feast and the last of the seven vials.

**Immunity Challenge:** *Remember Me So*
Played in a series of rounds, castaways will be shown a list of symbols. When the host has finished, the castaways must show the same symbols that were presented to them in the order that was previously shown. Showing the wrong symbol would result in the castaway being eliminated from the challenge. The last contestant remaining would win.

### Previously On Survivor

On a losing streak, everything looked grim for Kotabumi. However, at the next reward challenge, the tides changed as they won letters from home. They also won the sixth vial, which unleashed one of the biggest twists in the game yet.

Everyone has reached into the bag and grabbed a buff. Jeff, standing in front of the tribes tells them to unravel them. Everyone starts ripping into packages. The excited faces soon turn into confused glances as Jodie pulls out a yellow buff.

**Jodie (laughing)**: My oh my!

As the twelve castaways pull out their buffs they turn to Jeff who just shrugs.

**Jeff**: I never said it was a merge. We're swapping tribes. Kotabumi is no more. If you have a Cabang buff come over to the yellow mat, if you have a Menggala buff, over to the green.

**Forrest (shaking his head)**: This is so unfair.

On the new Cabang tribe, Ethan and Forrest were the odd ones out, being the only tribe members to never have been on Menggala. However, their futures looked bright when Jodie wanted to turn on her old tribe to blinside Tyler and what she thought was a hidden immunity idol.

**Jodie**: I wouldn't trust Tyler. At all.

**Ethan (surprised)**: Why?

**Jodie**: He totally has the idol because of Exile. I got a clue the next round. Every tree at our camp got searched. Nowhere. He has it in his bag or hidden somewhere here.

**Ethan**: Wow. That's dangerous.

Meanwhile on Menggala, Addi and Lester found themselves the only memebers to never have been on Cabang. However, Genesis and Stephanie started to bond.

**Stephanie**: Oh no is right! I needed two stitches. Weak, I know. Would've been a lot cooler if it was twenty or something.

**Genesis**: But a lot more dangerous Steph!

**Stephanie (laughing)**: What's life without a little danger?

**Genesis (hugging Stephanie from the side)**: Oh I've missed you these past eight days Steph.

To account for Tyler's suspected idol, Ethan and Forrest had to put their faith in Star.

**Forrest**: We split the votes. 2-2-2.

**Ethan**: That would require Star voting with us, and she seems nice but I don't entirely trust her yet.

**Forrest**: It's the best shot we have if Tyler does play the idol, he's playing it on himself or Nick. Then we vote out the person who didn't have the idol played on them. Boom! A blindside *they* don't see coming.

However, they didn't need to test her loyalties as Menggala lost the immunity challenge.

On Menggala, Dan told Lester it was Addi going to try and keep the votes falling on old Menggala members. However, after the two tribe-mates decided to stick together, Addi used her budding relationship with Lindy to figure out Cabang's real target.

**Addi**: I know that it's probably either me or Lester tonight. If it's me, could you at least tell me? From one mom to another?

Lindy purses her lips and ties the finishing knot. She looks at Addi for a moment before she finally speaks.

**Lindy**: It's not you.

**Addi**: Lester?

Lindy gives a simple nod and Addi shakes her head.

Addi, not willing to vote out her former tribe member, then tried to reason with Lindy.

**Addi**: I'm just surprised you'd listen to your old tribe. You did mutiny away from them for a reason, right? So why would you just go right back to them?

**Lindy**: I have reasons.

**Addi (laughing)**: I just think it's weird, that's all.

**Lindy**: Well you do have some valid critiques.

And at tribal council, Lindy decided to forge a new path with Stephanie and joined up with Lester & Addi to vote out Dan in a 4-2 vote. 11 remain, who will be voted out tonight?

### Night 16

#### Menggala

After the summary, the Menggala tribe walks in from tribal council. Addi and Lester hug each other as the camera shows Genesis. Her face is still in shock as she hangs her stuff up.

**Genesis**: OK Steph, Lindy. Let's hear it.

Stephanie bits her lip as she turns to Genesis.

**Stephanie**: I'm going to be honest, I was voting with you guys up until a little bit before we left for tribal. Lindy pulled me aside and we decided Dan.

**Genesis**: You did?

**Lindy**: Yes, it was just... It was a really tough choice but I just didn't know if I could trust you two after I mutinied away from you both. It was just that simple. I didn't trust Dan to not inact some weird revenge plot against me.

**Genesis (laughing)**: Dan? He would've voted out every Menggala member before anyone from Cabang left.

**Lindy**: And I'm sure I'd be the first one to go.

**Genesis**: That wasn't a promise. Trust me, I would've voted out Dan before you Lindy. I'm not upset at him going, trust me, I'm not.

**Stephanie**: You're not?

**Genesis**: No, I just wish you would've told me everyone here was voting for him so I could've voted for him too.

Lester grins from the shelter as the camera focuses in on Genesis.

As Genesis sighs, the camera cuts to the intro.

### Day 17

#### Cabang

After the intro, the sun is shown rising as Day 17, Cabang Tribe is shown at the bottom of the screen. Sitting on the beach alone, Nick is staring at the sun as it slowly rises above the camp.

As Nick stares at the rising sun, Forrest comes out from the ocean holding a fish.

**Forrest**: Dude! We're eating some fish tonight!

**Nick (turning to look at Forrest)**: No way! You are a literal beast dude.

As the camera follows the two men, they get back to camp and start getting the fish ready to eat. Everyone is up and buzzing around the fire, excited to eat the fish.

**Star**: Fish for breakfast would normally sound so gross but I'm drooling right now.

**Tyler (laughing)**: Gross!

Star smiles at him while Jodie smirks.

**Tyler**: But same!

**Nick**: Honestly, we'd be starving right now if it wasn't for you Forrest.

**Tyler**: Definitely, Forrest, I am so thankful you are on Cabang and not Menggala.

Forrest laughs as he keeps cutting up the fish. The camera hovers on the six members getting ready to eat as the camera fades into Forrest's confessional.

Scenes of Cabang eating their fish is shown before the camera cuts.

#### Menggala

The camera comes back in on Menggala where Genesis is sitting with Stephanie and Lindy. She is biting her lip and looking around the camp. Her eyes are puffy, she has just finished crying.

Stephanie puts her arm around Genesis and hugs her.

**Stephanie**: Are you doing alright?

**Genesis**: Yeah I'll be fine. I just needed to get it all out so I don't become a complete mess around camp.

**Stephanie**: Sometimes it helps to let those tears fall.

**Genesis**: Exactly. I feel so much better and my head's cleared up.

As the girls start talking, Lindy looks at the two and smiles.

As Lindy continues smiling at the two girls, the camera cuts to commercial.

#### Reward Challenge

The camera comes back in on Cabang walking to the challenge area. They stand at their mat, buzzing amongst themselves on who they think Menggala has voted off. Soon, they realize it is Dan who left the game as Menggala enters. The camera focuses in on Ethan and Forrest who's shocked faces meet Genesis's who nods at them. Forrest leans into Ethan's ear.

**Forrest (barely audible)**: This is not good dude.

Ethan simply nods his head and turns his attention to Jeff.

**Jeff**: Cabang, getting your first look at the new Menggala tribe, Dan voted out last night. Let's get to today's challenge, shall we? Today you'll assign one person to be the goal-keeper. They must stand on the podium and deflect the balls shot by the opposing team. If you are on the podium, you must keep one part of your body on it at all times. If the ball lands in the goal, the team throwing it scores a point. The first tribe to five points wins. Want to know what you're playing for?

The two tribes cheer out as Jeff pulls a tarp off of a table. A huge feast sits there. Shots of pizzas, steaks, pasta, and a bottle of wine flashes on the screen. Everyone yells in excitement at the prospect of real food.

**Jeff (smiling)**: An enormous feast. Trust me, you won't be hungry this afternoon. I'm talking about spaghetti, burgers, brats... There's something here for everyone. In addition to the feast, you will also win the last of these Seven Vials. What twist is in this one? Only time will tell. Cabang you're sitting someone out, you can't sit the same people out in back to back challenges.

**Star (raising her hand)**: I'm sitting out Jeff!

**Jeff**: I'll give both tribes a couple of minutes to talk about the challenge and we'll get started.

The camera then jumps to the two tribes in their starting positions as Jeff yells GO!

 Cabang
 Menggala

**Challenge Highlights**

* Jodie and Stephanie are chosen to be the goal-keepers for the two tribes.
* Jodie struggles due to her leg while Stephanie blocks several shots. After two rounds the score is 2-0 in favor of Menggala.
* However, Forrest shoots several precise shots over the rounds and manage to shorten the lead to 3-2 in favor or Menggala by the fourth round.
* Jodie's struggle to move though allows Menggala to win 5-3.

**Jeff**: MENGGALA WINS REWARD! A FEAST AND THE SEVENTH VIAL!

Stephanie dives off the platform and swims to her tribe as they start celebrating. Jodie slowly climbs down the ladder and doggy-paddles her way over to Cabang as Menggala is still jumping up and down.

**Jeff**: Menggala, congratulations. If you don't mind, I'll just open the vial and read it right now.

The camera shows Lester's smiling face as Jeff uncorks the bottle and pulls out a piece of paper.

**Jeff (reading)**: Congratulations. You have just made it to the merge.

Once again, more excited cries ring out as everyone is celebrating. People start taking off the buffs as Jeff pulls out a bag of dark blue buffs.

**Jeff**: Here are your buffs. You'll need to come up with a tribe name before the next immunity challenge. Since you're all one tribe, you will all get to enjoy this feast. See you at the next challenge.

As Jeff leaves, everyone puts on their buffs and starts excitedly talking. They make their way over to the large table filled with food.

#### Merged Tribe

As everyone takes their seats and starts loading up the dark blue plates at the table, conversation starts to flow. Almost everyone is busy chatting and several conversations start to overlap each other.

As the camera focuses on Stephanie raising a glass of water and clinking it with Tyler's glass of wine, the camera shifts the attention to Jodie who is cutting a piece of steak.

As the feast is starting to dwindle to a close, the entire tribe joins in on a group conversation to decide both their new tribe name and which camp they will live at for the rest of the game.

**Forrest**: Let's start with the camp first, I personally think Cabang is the better choice. We still have one chicken, a fishing kit, a fruit basket, and a tarp.

**Tyler**: Also, Cabang has a better pond than Menggala, and the shelter is in a better spot.

**Lindy**: We did just have to change the roof of the shelter, it was becoming a mess.

**Lester**: So that's settled, we're all going to Cabang after this!

**Forrest**: Now we just need a tribe name.

**Genesis**: I was thinking we could combine Menggala and Cabang! Maybe just take the first and last part, Menbang!

Star, Lindy, and Jodie who had all been sipping on their drinks spit it out and start laughing. Eventually, everyone is worked up into a laughing fit as Genesis looks at them all, her eyes wide with confusion.

**Genesis**: Did I say something wrong?

**Star**: Yes. We are *not* doing Men*bang*!

**Genesis (cheeks flushing with embarrassment)**: Oh my goodness I didn't even hear it!

This causes an even bigger uproar out of Tyler and Lester who are crying laughing now.

**Ethan**: What if we flip it around? Caggala?

**Lindy**: That doesn't really roll off the tongue.

**Addi**: What if we throw Kotabumi in there?

**Star (sounding out each part)**: Men-ca-bumi?

**Nick (at the same time as Star)**: Ca-gala-mi?

**Star (stops sounding out her word)**: Oh I like that one a lot better!

**Lester**: Any objections?

No one speaks up and as everyone finishes up their plates and drinks, Jodie smiles.

**Jodie**: Done! We're officially Cagalami!

After Ethan's confessional has aired, the tribe has now moved back to their camp, the former Cabang camp, and is getting things set up for 11 people to live there.

**Forrest (pointing to the shelter)**: The first three days it barely held all nine of us so we definitely have to expand it today.

Ethan and Stephanie nod and the three start planning out how to go about changing the shelter as the camera swivels to Lindy who is setting her bag down by the fire and talks to Jodie and Star.

**Lindy**: It's fun to be back here! It's improved a lot since Day 5.

**Star**: For better or worse?

**Lindy (laughing)**: Definitely better!

Star is then shown walking through the woods with Lester.

**Star (laughing to herself)**: You know, you were the only person I was kind of sad about mutinying away from.

**Lester**: Really?

**Star**: Yeah! After Ned was voted out you really helped me get my head back in the game and really got me through it. No one else was that nice or kind about it, they just left me alone and hoped that I would get over it. You actually took the time to talk to me and let me know where I stood in the game.

**Lester**: Well I am glad that we're back on the same tribe.

**Star**: Me too. I just hope that other people are also glad that I'm on the same tribe as them.

**Lester**: Well I'm sure you've already talked with Jodie, Tyler, and Nick about it all. I'm fine with what you did, it's a game and you had your reasons. Addi didn't seem phased at all, so I'm sure if you talk with her about it she'll have no ill feelings.

**Star (sighing)**: That's my hope.

As Lester and Star walk back to camp, the camera follows Lester who then takes Nick and Tyler off to the side. The three men walk away from camp and start talking about what happened during the swap.

**Lester**: Dude, I was convinced I was going home there. Lindy and Stephanie really saved me there. Dan and Genesis were gunning for me. They wanted an original Cabang alliance there.

**Tyler**: I think the five Cabang people are going to stick together.

**Nick**: Well there's six of us original Menggala memebers, that should be enough right?

**Tyler**: Assuming Star votes with us. I still don't trust a single word that comes out of that %$^$'s mouth. She can try to act like she made a rushed and paranoid mistake all she wants but she's an adult, she has no excuse for what she did.

**Lester**: I don't know, I still think she's honest.

**Tyler**: Well then she's got you fooled.

**Nick**: I don't trust Jodie either. On Cabang she was getting really chatty with both Forrest and Ethan. I think she was up to something.

**Lester**: Addi and Jodie will vote together, so we just need to convince one of those two to trust us with all their hearts and we'll be fine. Then we just need to watch Star and make sure that she's actually with us.

**Nick**: Plus we still have the idol guys! No matter what we're safe this vote.

**Tyler**: I think that Lindy and Stephanie might be willing to swap over to Menggala though, especially because they did save you Lester.

**Lester**: Yeah, I'm really confused by that.

**Tyler (grinning)**: Me too, but I'm glad they did!

As Nick's confessional ends, the camera picks up on Lindy who is walking over to Tyler who is all alone in the ocean, washing a pot. She makes sure no one is around before she whispers.

**Lindy**: Is the Exile thing still going on?

**Tyler**: You didn't vote out Star.

**Lindy**: I didn't really have a choice. Abby and Zandria voted together so Abby became those two's public enemy number one. I couldn't rock the boat that bad or else none of us four would even be here.

**Tyler**: Look, I'm going to be honest, I trust you. I don't trust Star.

**Lindy (thinking)**: Let's just leave Star out of the loop.

**Tyler (grinning)**: You think that'd be smart?

**Lindy**: If that's what it'll take for this alliance to work, then yes.

**Tyler**: Nick and Lester think you're going to vote with the Cabang's to get out a Menggala member.

**Lindy**: Do you think that's smart?

**Tyler (looking Lindy directly in the eyes)**: Honestly, I don't even care who goes first, as long as it isn't me or you.

**Lindy**: You're the one who's dictating if this alliance is going to work or not, so whoever you want.

Tyler looks away from Lindy for a second to smile before returning to her, his face expressionless.

**Tyler**: It almost has to be a Cabang member.

**Lindy**: If that's what you want.

Lindy starts walking away from Tyler who keeps washing the pot. As Lindy gets back on the beach, she lets her hair down from a pony-tail as the screen transitions into a confessional.

After Lindy's confessional, she is shown laying down next to Star and Jodie on the beach.

**Lindy (whispering)**: I don't trust Tyler.

**Jodie (laughing)**: Finally someone else is joining the dark side!

**Lindy**: You don't trust him either?

**Jodie**: I don't trust him as far as I can throw him. He's sneaky. Do you know he has the idol?

**Lindy (feigning shock)**: He does?!

**Jodie**: Either that or he is the cockiest son of a gun for no reason. The dude's been walking around like he owns this game for the past week. He needs an ego check.

**Star**: He acted really safe on Cabang, despite the fact that it probably would've been him or Nick going.

**Lindy**: Interesting...

**Jodie**: If he doesn't win immunity, I'm voting him off first, I don't want an idol anywhere near this tribe.

**Lindy**: Me either!

As Jodie keeps sunbathing, the camera slowly fades to black.

### Day 18

#### Cagalami

The camera comes back on the tribe on Day 18. The day number is on the lower corner as a snake is shown slithering across a tree branch. It does a fast attack on a mouse as the camera cuts to Jodie who is sitting with Addi.

**Jodie**: If Tyler loses tomorrow...

Jodie pretends to do a throat split as Addi gasps in horror.

**Addi**: Tyler? Do you still think he has the idol?

**Jodie**: Unless you and me were both blind as a bat, we searched every tree at Menggala, that idol was already found.

**Addi**: That doesn't mean Tyler has it, how about Lester?

**Jodie**: You told me he was scared s%$tless last tribal. If he had an idol he would've been as relaxed as a baby in a crib.

**Addi**: Would others be down for it?

**Jodie**: Lindy and Star are down. I'm sure the other Cabang members would vote with us too.

**Addi**: But then we're at the bottom.

**Jodie**: Not necessarily!

**Addi**: Yes, we would be. Nick and Lester would distrust us. Star, Stephanie, and Lindy would be a three-person duo, and Genesis, Ethan, and Forrest would be a three-person duo against us as well. Let's assume that they do decide to take us to the final eight with them and they do decide to use us as swing votes. We're still fourth and fifth.

**Jodie**: That's why we use the numbers to our advantage! Let's assume that we're the final eight. We get rid of Tyler, Nick, and Lester. We decide to vote out, let's just say one of the Kotabumi girls with the original Cabangs. Next round, we join back up with the Kotabumi girls and vote out one of the Cabangs, then it's two in every group!

**Addi**: And what if they decide they're sick of us playing the middle and band together to vote us out sixth and fifth?

**Jodie**: It's all about our games. If we play it right, we can easily get to the top.

Addi sighs and says she'll go with what Jodie wants.

After the two confessionals are finished playing, the camera continues showing Jodie and Addi plotting strategy for a couple of seconds. Then the camera transitions to Ethan, Forrest, and Genesis in a corner of the camp all alone. This is the first time they've been able to get alone to talk.

**Forrest**: What happened with Dan?

**Genesis (talking quickly)**: We thought that Lindy and Stephanie were with us and that it was going to be four against Lester. Somehow he and Addi got in their ear right before tribal and the two flipped. Lindy can't be trusted. She still thinks that we're working against her and that's why she voted out Dan.

**Ethan (muttering)**: Damnnit. What about Stephanie? Is there any way that she'd be willing to work with us ever again?

**Genesis**: I have more hope for her coming back to us. We're pretty close. She seems super far up Lindy's a$$ though and I don't know why. I think she might have an advantage or something. Otherwise, why would Stephanie be working with her?

**Ethan**: Maybe she trusts Lindy because they've been on the same tribe since day 1. There was that whole couple of rounds where we were completely separated from her. I wouldn't be surprised if the three Kotabumi girls think that they have to work together because they assume we all don't trust them for mutinying.

**Forrest (sighing)**: How do we convince them to vote with us then? Because we want those three to come to our side, that makes six and that's enough for this vote.

**Ethan**: What if we turn the vote against them?

**Genesis**: Would that work?

**Forrest**: Tyler is wary of Star. He told me that he doesn't trust her at all after she mutinied. It sounded like she was nowhere near the bottom of the tribe.

**Ethan**: So we get Tyler, if Tyler votes with us then Nick will and then we just need one more vote.

**Genesis**: Lester and Addi didn't seem that closely aligned when we first swapped, maybe... If they're still not close we can get Lester. Then it won't matter what happens because it'll be six to five.

**Forrest**: That's assuming no one pulls out an idol. Do we even know if they're hidden? We never got a clue.

Genesis shrugs her shoulder as Ethan says he'll talk to some people about advantages to see if anyone knows anything. Genesis reminds him to be careful not to give away too much information. He leaves the two alone as his confessional plays over him walking back into the main part of camp.

Genesis is showing jumping onto Forrest's back as he carries her back into camp. The two are laughing and enjoying themselves as Nick, who is sitting in the shelter rolls his eyes. He watches the two as Genesis jumps off Forrest's back near the fire and the two start tending the fire. Nick laughs to himself.

As the camera locks onto Nick, he gets up and goes to the fire. He's friendly and chatting it up with Forrest and Genesis about something as the camera shifts to Ethan and Star who are chatting about the first couple days of the game by the water-well.

**Star**: I don't think anyone had a rougher first week than me out here. I was a blubbering mess. Paranoia? Hello, I'm her.

**Ethan (laughing)**: Oh I'm sure we were all freaking out, some of us just managed to hold it in better. I would be lying if I said that I was comfortable for the first couple of days.

**Star**: You?! Sure fooled me! You look like nothing could scare you.

**Ethan**: Plenty of things scare me. Advantages, idols, those especially.

**Star (looking at Ethan)**: I was more scared of the vials myself! I haven't seen an idol yet, although I'm sure that they'll be making appearances soon if anyone has them.

**Ethan**: That's my concern. This first vote, we'll probably see five.

**Star (laughing)**: Don't say that!

As the two start walking back to camp with the water bucket filled, the camera lingers on Star's worried-looking face. She keeps glancing at Ethan when his attention is away from her.

As the camera follows the two back to camp. We are treated to a montage of the sun rising slowly above the sky. Eventually, it starts to set and it is now dusk. Time has passed and Addi, Lester, Nick, Jodie, Tyler, and Star are sitting by the fire. Nick looks around to make sure no one else is around before he leans in and starts whispering.

**Nick**: I think it would be wise if us six stuck together.

**Jodie**: A Menggala alliance?

**Nick**: I mean, if you're all down to it. I think it'd be smart, we have the numbers over those five. If you want an easy majority for this vote, there's no easier option.

**Lester**: I'm in.

**Star (nervous)**: It would be us six? Who would we vote out first among them?

**Tyler**: I'd want someone that was on Cabang the entire time. Lindy and Stephanie mutinied away from them for a reason, right Star? So they'd be willing to flip on those three?

**Star**: I mean, probably. Lindy doesn't trust them.

**Addi**: I can prove that. Lindy was convinced to vote out Dan over Lester. She clearly has no problem voting out Cabang members.

**Nick**: Perfect! I'd say either Forrest or Genesis needs to go first. They're younger and more athletic than Ethan, although he's a beast himself. But those two are always flirting with each other. They're inseparable.

**Jodie**: So you're saying split those two up?

**Nick**: Do you want them together in this game?

**Jodie (thinking)**: Not really... I suppose either one of them is good. If one wins immunity then we'll vote for the other.

**Nick (putting his hand out)**: So it's settled, us six?

Slowly, one by one, the six put their hands out and all agree that the six Menggala members will stick together. As they slowly part ways, members of Cabang come in and out of camp, unaware of the deal that was just made without them.

As the camera keeps rolling on the newly merged tribe's second night together, the camera slowly fades into a commercial.

### Day 19

#### Cagalami

The camera comes back in on the morning of the first individual immunity challenge. Birds are chirpping as the camera focuses in on Jodie. She is the first one up and yawns, stretching awake. She gets up and sits by the fire, trying to warm herself up as Genesis and Lindy also get up and sit by her.

**Lindy (whispering)**: I talked to Genesis. She's also concerned about Tyler. She says that she could get Forrest and Ethan on board. I can get Stephanie. That's us eight versus those three.

**Jodie**: Is Star still on board?

**Lindy**: Last time I talked to her. She doesn't trust Tyler at all. Us eight all vote for him, he's gone.

**Jodie**: What if he does have an idol? Or he wins immunity? I am worried about what would happen if he becomes immune.

**Genesis**: If he wins immunity, we vote for Nick. He's Tyler's second hand man. If he goes, it also hurts Tyler. If there's an idol then we just split the vote. Four to four against those three.

**Jodie**: We'd all have to be exteremly tight. One person wavers and doesn't vote then it's all chaos.

**Genesis**: I trust you, I trust Lindy, I trust Stephanie, you trust Addi, Lindy trusts Star. No one's going to waver. If us eight vote together then those three are the next three out of this game.

**Jodie**: It all comes down to the immunity challenge.

**Lindy**: Then all three of us better fight like hell to make sure Tyler doesn't win.

As Genesis's confessional plays, the camera slowly transitions to the Cagalami tribe entering the challenge area.

#### Immunity Challenge

As the castaways come up on the beach, they see eleven stations that have several blocks and a totem that will hold the blocks. They are all excited as Jeff looks at them, smiling.

**Jeff**: First things first, what is your tribe name?

**Ethan**: Cagalami.

**Jeff**: Alright, Cagalami let's get to your first individual immunity challenge. Star, I'll take back the tribal immunity idol.

Star brings the tribal immunity up to Jeff who sets it down and pulls a cloak off of a post. The individual immunity necklace sits upon it. It is adorned and decorated with vials and bottles that make it very jangly.

**Jeff**: Tribal immunity is no more. You're competing for individual immunity. Here's how this challenge will work. You will all be randomly assigned to a station. One round at a time I will show you a series of symbols. When I say go, you will then recreate the series, by putting the first symbol at the bottom of your totem and so on all the up to the last symbol. If you get a symbol wrong, you are out. Each round will get harder and longer. The last person standing wins individual immunity and will have a 1 in 10 shot of winning this game. If you lose, I just might be snuffing your torch at tribal council tonight. I'll give you a few minutes and then we'll get started.

**Challenge Highlights**

* The first round the series is; **Boat, Snake, Torch, Beetle**. Everyone gets it right.
* The second round's series is; **Beetle, Fire, Torch, Fire, Boat, Tiger**. Nick and Jodie get it wrong. **Addi, Ethan, Forrest, Genesis, Lester, Lindy, Star, Stephanie, & Tyler remain**.
* The third round's series is; **Tiger, Torch, Snake, Snake, Beetle, Vial, Vial, Torch**. Ethan, Genesis, and Star get it wrong. **Addi, Forrest, Lester, Lindy, Stephanie, & Tyler remain**.
* The fourth round's series is; **Snake, Beetle, Vial, Torch, Tiger, Torch, Torch, Tiger, Fire, Vial**. Addi, Lindy, and Stephanie get it wrong. **Forrest, Lester, & Tyler remain**.
* A montage of two rounds is shown, and in the seventh round the series is; **Snake, Boat, Pearl, Torch, Tiger, Vial, Boat, Vial, Torch, Snake**. Lester & Tyler both get it wrong meaning...

**Jeff**: FORREST WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY! SAFE TONIGHT FROM THE VOTE!

Forrest bumps his chest and looks up to the sky as the camera shows Tyler who shakes his head in disappointment.

**Tyler (subtitled)**: Stupid snake!

After everyone is back standing on the mat, Jeff motions to Forrest.

**Jeff**: Come on up!

Forrest does a half-run/half-walk over to Jeff who clips the necklace around his neck.

**Jeff**: Forrest, individual immunity is yours, a 1 in 10 shot at winning this game. The rest of you, danger tonight at tribal council where one of you will be the seventh person voted out of this game and the first member of our jury. Head on out, I'll see you tonight.

The camera shows several shots of everyone walking out of the challenge. Several close-ups are shown in succession as the screen then fades to black and a commercial break.

#### Cagalami

After the break, the camera picks up on the eleven Cagalami members coming back to camp right after the immunity challenge. Forrest unclips his necklace and hangs it up on a branch as the rest of the tribe takes turns congratulating him on winning the first challenge.

Several overhead shots of the camp are shown as slowly everyone drifts away from each other to talk strategy about the vote tonight. Slowly the overhead shot transitions to Genesis and Stephanie walking away from camp, whispering.

**Genesis**: We just have to confirm it with Jodie but there should be seven votes for Tyler tonight.

**Stephanie**: Sounds good. Personally I don't trust him for a second. I still think he might be up to something, what if Jodie's right and he does have an idol?

**Genesis**: I honestly don't know what's going to happen, but when I suggested splitting the vote 4-3-3 to counter it she flipped. She doesn't trust any of us any more than she trusts him. She wouldn't put it past someone like Star to flip or vote the wrong way and all of a sudden goodbye whoever they vote for and Jodie becomes their public enemy.

**Stephanie**: It would be a whole lot easier if we just did that though! What if we don't tell her about the plan and split it anyways? That would work right? Why does she have to know about the split vote?

**Genesis**: If we split it without telling her then we can kiss goodbye her working with us again. She might just flip on us next round!

**Stephanie**: But we would still have the numbers right? Star would still vote with us so that would be six against their four.

**Genesis**: I just think it would be smarter to keep Jodie with us, we don't want to turn away our numbers now. I can guarantee you that if we stick together, they don't stand a chance.

Stephanie nods and the two keep walking in silence until they come upon Star who is talking with Lester. The two girls switch their conversation to how they tie their hair up most effectively on the island without a hair tie as they pass by the other two.

A different camera angle shows Stephanie and Genesis passing as Star and Lester return to their conversation. Star looks nervous as she keeps putting her hands on her hips and then running them through her hair. Lester looks calm as he leans against a tree.

**Star**: So Genesis then, right? That's what we decided since Forrest won immunity.

**Lester**: That should be the plan. All six of us are still on, right? I don't know what those five are even thinking of doing, do you think they're together?

**Star**: I have no idea, but I mean if Tyler gets votes tonight then...

**Lester (interrupting her)**: Tyler? Why would Tyler get votes?

**Star (stammering)**: I mean... I don't know why he would but some people think there might be an idol.

**Lester**: So they're going to try and vote Tyler out so he can't play this idol they think he has?

Star stays silent, running her hands through her hair and looks towards Lester who shakes his head.

**Lester**: Is everyone but me and Tyler in on this plan? Star, I don't want to be blindsided tonight.

**Star (sighing)**: Everyone knew but you, Nick, and Tyler. I don't think it's going to happen though! The six of us made that deal.

Lester nods and looks away from Star as she anxiously starts walking away from Lester.

As Lester's confessional ends, he is coming up on Tyler and Nick who are lying in the shelter all alone. He gets them to sit up and looks at them, his face still with no emotion.

**Lester**: Guys, the six-person Menggala alliance? Not happening, they're all working with Cabang. They want you out.

Lester points to Tyler who's face drops with shock.

**Tyler (screeching)**: What?!

Nick quiets him down so no one comes running and the two look at Lester.

**Lester**: Star accidentally told me, they're all voting for you. I don't know what happened but they know about your idol. Only the three of us know about it right?

Tyler nods, still confused about his name being thrown around as Lester shakes his head.

**Lester**: Then did someone make up a fake lie about the idol and guessed who had it correctly? This makes no sense! I thought we were good for this vote, why did everyone decide to turn on us? I am frea-

**Tyler (interuptting)**: Jodie!

**Nick**: Jodie?

**Tyler**: She has been after me for so long, she somehow guessed that I had the idol. She hasn't trusted me since then. When we were on Cabang she would always take long walks with Ethan and Forrest, I have no doubt that among those three the first one to flip to Cabang was Jodie.

**Lester**: Well what are we going to do now?

**Tyler (standing up)**: I'm going to go confront her about that's what I'm going to do!

**Nick (trying to stop him)**: Is that really the smartest thing we can do right now Tyler?

**Tyler (snapping)**: I don't care! She's been throwing my name around so much that I'm sick of it!

Tyler storms off as Nick sighs and looks at Lester. The two exchange glances of surprise and follow Tyler from afar, hoping to hear what he says to Jodie.

As the camera comes back in on Tyler, he has found Jodie all alone on the beach.

**Jodie (looking up)**: Hey there Tyler.

**Tyler (cutting to the chase)**: Why are you throwing my name under the bus?

**Jodie (shocked)**: I have no idea what you're talking about!

**Tyler**: I know that everyone is planning on voting for me tonight, and I know that you were one of the people who started the idea!

**Jodie**: That's ridiculous! We're voting together as the six Menggala members, remember?

**Tyler**: Jodie, don't play dumb with me! I know that you think I have an idol, I don't know why you would believe that but that's beside the point. If you honestly still are planning on voting for me, you are making the biggest mistake that's ever been made in this game.

**Jodie (getting angry)**: I don't know why you are accusing me of something that hasn't even happened yet Tyler! As far as I am aware, the plan was the six of us to vote for Genesis, and that's the plan I intend to follow through on, I don't know what you are trying to do! Why are you disrupting the vote right before tribal? It makes no f$#$ing sense! Maybe you should vote for me!

Tyler laughs and leaves Jodie who sits back down in the sand for a bit. She is quietly running her fingers through it, trying to make sense of what just happened. She keeps murmuring to herself, "How did he know?"

As Jodie keeps drawing in the sand, Genesis and Lindy approach her and sit down next to her.

**Lindy**: We're still on for Tyler, right?

Jodie stays silent and keeps running her fingers in circle patterns. Genesis shifts herself uncomfortably and looks at Jodie intensely.

**Genesis (concerned)**: Jodie? Are you OK?

**Jodie**: I don't think I can vote for Tyler tonight. I'm sorry.

**Genesis**: What! Why not? Everyone else is on board. I don't want you to be the only one out of the loop.

**Jodie**: Someone snitched on the plan. He knows. I don't think he's getting the six votes you think he is.

**Lindy**: Who told him?

**Jodie**: No clue! He just came up to me and somehow knew all about it. The kid either has a snitch or a really great intuition.

**Lindy (nervous)**: Oh God...

**Genesis**: So we could flip the vote to Nick? They won't think it's going to happen. We can still pull this off! Just because he knows doesn't mean that we have to throw everything out the window.

**Jodie (standing up)**: I'm sorry guys, I wanted Tyler gone as much as you two but it's not in the cards for tonight.

As Jodie leaves, Lindy and Genesis stare at each other in complete shock.

**Lindy (whispering)**: What the h$#& is happening Gen?

**Genesis**: Everyone's going to crazy town that's what happening! Who told Tyler about the plan?

**Lindy**: I don't think he guessed it all on his own.

**Genesis**: The dude can't be that lucky! Somehow the word got out to him, maybe Lester or Nick overheard us talking?

**Lindy**: I don't know what happened but we need to come up with a plan or else someone from Cabang is going.

As the two keep talking, the camera focuses in on Tyler who has returned to the beach and sits next to the two girls who have gone quiet.

**Tyler**: Scrambling hard girls?

**Genesis (laughing)**: Just as hard as you are I'm sure!

**Tyler**: Well I know your plan that you eight had just got blown up because of Jodie so I don't think I'm quite as scattered as you all.

**Genesis**: Plan?

**Tyler (laughing)**: Everyone tries to act like I'm so dumb and out of the loop here! I know that you guys were or maybe still are planning on voting for me.

**Lindy**: I wouldn't count on you receiving votes, especially if those idol rumors are true.

**Tyler (smirking)**: Only one way to find out.

The two girls just sit back as Tyler leans into them, whispering.

**Tyler**: If you two want to still get out a Menggala member though... I'd be down to vote Jodie out tonight.

Lindy leans forward at hearing this, surprised.

**Lindy**: You would?

**Tyler**: One hundred percent. I know that she's out here trying to take me out so I'd rather vote her out first. It's a battle and I need to strike on her before she strikes me.

**Lindy**: You have to understand that we're a little weary... How do we know that you're going to vote for her?

**Tyler**: You need to trust people sometimes Lindy. I'll let you think about it.

As Tyler leaves the two girls look at one another, unsure of what to do.

**Lindy (angrily whispering)**: That kid is so %#$king cocky! He needs an attitude check.

**Genesis**: I have no idea if we can trust him.

The camera now shows a setting sun as everyone is grabbing their torches and getting into a line to walk to tribal. As several close shots of the castaways walking are shown, the final confessional of the episode from Star plays over it, while she is talking, suspenseful music crescendos.

As Star's confessional ends, the music suddenly stops and the screen goes black.

## Tribal Council

After a brief commercial break, the scene picks up on the remaining eleven castaways entering the Tribal Council area. They set their torches down and take their seats as Jeff looks at them all.

**Jeff**: Forrest, you won the first immunity challenge, how does it feel?

**Forrest**: It feels great Jeff. Knowing that with all the craziness that's going on I'm the only one who can feel safe is a great feeling.

**Jeff**: Star, what craziness is Forrest referring to?

**Star (giggling)**: Everyone is trying to make sure that they aren't the ones going home tonight so everyone's hearing all sorts of names and ideas. There are so many "plans" going on that I think at some point all of our names have come for who should go tonight.

**Jeff**: Everyone but... Forrest?

**Star (nodding)**: Correct.

**Jeff**: Tyler, you were in the final round and were one of the people closest to winning immunity today, disappointed it wasn't you?

**Tyler**: 100% Jeff. I know that my name has come up a lot more than other people's so immunity around my neck would be nice. I wish I could say I trust everyone and that I know I'm safe but this afternoon I learned that that's not the truth.

**Jeff**: What do you mean by that?

**Tyler**: I learned that almost everyone on this tribe was planning on blindsiding me.

Dramatic music suddenly plays as a shot of the entire tribe is shown.

**Jeff**: Almost everyone?

**Tyler**: Almost everyone and I'm pretty sure I know who started throwing my name around.

A shot of Jodie is shown rolling her eyes as Jeff asks Tyler who. He points to Jodie.

**Jeff**: Jodie, that's a pretty big accusation!

**Jodie (smiling)**: And a false one at that. What I told Tyler was the truth, and I stand by that. He thinks I'm after him because he has made up his mind that I was telling everyone he has the Menggala idol.

**Jeff**: Genesis, it's no secret that there are six Menggala and five Cabang members, does seeing Tyler and Jodie argue make you think, "Hey there's something happening there, maybe the original tribe numbers don't matter that much?"

**Genesis**: You're spot on Jeff. I don't think original tribe numbers are the end all, be all here. Those original tribes were dissolved on Day 6, there have been 13 days where the tribes were all sorts of mixed up so I think it's a little foolish to assume that tonight's vote is going to be all on original tribal lines.

A shot of Nick and Lester are shown as Jeff turns his attention to Lindy.

**Jeff**: Lindy, tonight marks who the first member of the jury is. They have all the power at the final tribal council to dictate who is going to win this game. How do you decide who the first juror should be?

As Lindy starts to answer, the camera zooms in quickly on Lester whispering something to Star before the camera cuts back to Lindy.

**Lindy**: I think you have to look at a ton of different options. Who are big threats to sweep the jury vote at the end? Who will never vote for me and who will? Who's going to want to work with me in the end? I could put someone on the jury who would vote for me but if I don't have the numbers then I'm joining them next time. It's all about balancing long term goals with surviving short term.

**Jeff**: Addi, do you think that there is more to tonight's vote then meets the eye?

**Addi**: Yes. Everyone's having one-on-one conversations with everyone and I know they're not telling everyone the exact same thing. Someone's being lied to and it will be revealed before we all leave.

**Jeff**: Well one of you isn't leaving here with the rest of the tribe and will instead become the first member of the jury. With that it's time to vote, Ethan, you're up.

Ethan is showing walking up to cast his vote. Footage of him walking back and Forrest walking up are shown. Genesis is showing holding up her vote, although the audience can't see who it is for.

As Genesis walks back to her seat, Stephanie, Lindy, Star, and Lester are showing walking up. Jodie is shown holding up her vote for Genesis.

The camera then shows Nick and Addi uncapping the pen as Tyler is shown holding up a vote for someone the audience can't see.

As Tyler walks back to his seat, Jeff stands up and announces he will collect the votes. Several shots of everyone nervously awaiting the results are shown as Jeff comes back, carrying the urn.

**Jeff**: If anyone has a hidden immunity idol, now would be the time to play it.

The camera focuses in on Lindy and Tyler, both of whom stay still. Several people look at Tyler, waiting for him to stand up. After a while, they breathe a sigh of relief.

**Jeff**: OK, once the votes are read the decision is final and the person voted out must leave the tribal council area immediately. I'll read the votes.

**First Vote**: Genesis

Genesis nods, expecting the vote.

**Second Vote**: Genesis

**Third Vote**: Jodie

Jodie leans forward in her chair, not expecting her name to come up.

**Fourth Vote**: Jodie, that's two votes both Genesis and Jodie

**Fifth Vote**: Jodie

**Sixth Vote**: Genesis

With three votes now against her, Genesis sits up in her chair and looks around, not expecting to see her name come up again.

**Seventh Vote**: Genesis

**Eighth Vote**: Jodie, that's four votes both Jodie and Genesis

With four votes against her, Jodie begins looking around at the rest of the tribe. Addi meets her gaze, also confused.

**Ninth Vote**: Jodie

**Tenth Vote**:

The seventh person voted out of Survivor: The Seven Vials

And the first member of our jury...

Jodie.

**Jeff**: Jodie, that's six, that's enough. I need you to bring me your torch.

Jodie lets out a cackle in surprise as Addi's face scans over everyone else as her hands come up to her face, trying to cover her gaping jaw. She is the only one visibly shocked.

**Jeff (as he snuffs her torch)**: Jodie, the tribe has spoken.

Jodie turns and waves goodbye to everyone as she leaves. Addi, still reeling from the vote leans into Lester.

**Addi (whispering)**: What happened?

**Tyler (whispering)**: I'll tell you it all when we get back to camp.

**Jeff (turning back to the tribe)**: Based on almost everyone's reaction, you all saw that coming. Will the next vote be the same way? Head on out, I'll see you all soon.

As everyone grabs their torches, the end credits music starts playing as the light of the torches is seen leaving the tribal council area.

### Voting Confessionals

* Ethan didn't say anything while casting his vote.

### Still in the Running

 ~~Abby~~ | ~~Alex~~ | ~~Dan~~ | Ethan

## Next Time on *Survivor*

As Lester comes up with a game plan sure to cause chaos...

"The reason why the vote wasn't 9-2 like it should've been was because of me."

Every alliance tries to become the dominant one.

"We're the only two people you can trust."

"Screw those guys! They had their chance."

"I want to spit in their faces! God, they're insufferable."

And Addi becomes a rogue agent.

"I'm going to do whatever I feel like doing now!"

And a twist is sure to shake up the game.

"I have an extra vial that you can win today. All you have to do is compete in a reward challenge instead of the immunity challenge."
