 Original Release

KORU DAY 22

Pete: Final 4, it’s crazy how far people have came in this game. It never would have occured to me that this would be the final for. I am worried that since the plans didn’t work like they should, they might look to target me for playing the best game.

Pete and Jenna talk about a possible final 2 deal.

Jenna: Pete has discussed about this final 2 deal for a while. If I stick to this plan, it shows that I have been playing a loyal game and shows that I was ready to save the people needed to be saved.

Kelley questions why she’s out here.

Kelley: I think being out here has allowed me to grow as a person. As a young adult, questioning many decisions in life, this was a good expierence since I truly know how to react to different situations. I have found myself out here and if I go out with anything I just know that that is what I’ve learned.

KORU DAY 23

Shawna and Kelley talk about who is appropriate to elimanate at this tribal.

Shawna: Pete is the best option since he is the person that has played a good game. He was on both sides of the votes numerous times and has been able to hide himself in the way the game is played. I want to convince Jenna about this since she and Pete have a deal going around. But it’s a smarter move to get rid of him instead of trying to tie the vote.

Kelley: After talking with Jenna, this vote seems to be going to a 2-2 tie and there is nothing I can do to change the matter of the vote. It might be better for me to jump on their side since me and Shawna aren’t the closest.

IMMUNITY CHALLENGE DAY 24

**Nick: Welcome to your final 4 immunity challenge. For today’s challenge it is simple. Players will be led blind and find 4 amulets in this maze. First person to find all 4 amulets and reach the center to pull the necklace around their neck wins.**

**Results:** Pete comes close as he finds all 4 of his amulets but can’t reach the final necklace in time. Pete lost to Jenna and Jenna won immunity.

KORU DAY 24

Pete: I am worried about the upcoming vote. I won the last two immunities but now I have to downplay my game so it seems like I’m undeserving of 1 million dollars. Downplaying is my only option.

Kelley: Pete is acting like a slum. Like he doesn’t realize the game that he’s played is a good game. I’m so tired of him and I’m glad that tonight we will be able to get rid of him.

Shawna: The plan to take out Pete is going into action. He is the biggest threat and I need him gone if I want to stand a chance at winning the game. I need him gone and this is our only shot since he is a contender to win these immunities.

Jenna: I already have a final two with Pete so it would be stupid to break up the final two deal we had made. I think Shawna is our best option since she has been playing a solid game with that final 8 idol play as well as the big moves in the final 5 of this game. She is playing a better game than people give her credit for and if I want to make it to the end, they have to be gone.

TRIBAL COUNCIL DAY 24

**Nick: Please welcome our jury. Woo, Austin, Michelle, Bob and Sarah voted out at the last tribal council. Pete, you’ve had immunity for the past two tribals and now you don’t. At all worried about receiving votes tonight?**

Pete: Absolutely Nick. I mean I wouldn’t expect not to get at least one vote from a person. My plan last time didn’t fully work out like I wanted it to and so I expect a vote thrown my way since people expect me to have played a good game which I don’t understand why.

**Shawna, there is 2 other people besides Pete. Consider them at all in a voting decision?**

Shawna: No, not really. There is a certain amount of trust I have in Pete that he will win this game and tonight is a perfect shot to take him out.

**Jenna, you're sitting pretty here tonight. You're assured a spot in the final 3. Would tonight be a good time to make a move or stay true.**

Jenna: At this current stage in time, I cannot say how great it feels to have this thing around my neck. I could seriously make a huge move and it could help me tremendously.

**Kelley, this vote could be a million dollar decision. Someone here will not make the final 3 and one of those final 3 will have the shot to determine who is going to FTC and who is not. Does that become a factor come into tonight’s vote?**

Kelley: Yeah. I know someone who I don’t want to be in the final 3 and all it takes is a majority to make that happen.

**Nick: Alright, Kelley it is your turn to vote. (They all vote). Once the votes are read. Decision is final. Player voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council area immediately. I’ll read the votes.**

1st vote…Pete!

Shawna.

Shawna.

The final vote…Pete.

**Nick: We have a tie and the rules of Survivor state that if players have a deadlock tie, it goes to a fire making match-up to crown a winner. Winner makes the final 3 and the loser will become the 10th person voted out and the 6th member of our jury.**

**Firemaking Result:** Pete had gained an early lead but once his fire was blown out, Shawna started to catch up. The same fate happened to her as well. Pete on his second attempt burns through the rope gaining a final 3 selection.

**Shawna, you're going to need to bring me your torch. Shawna, the tribe has spoken. (snuffs). It’s time for you to go.**

Shawna Final Words: Ouch. Final 4 again. I hate this stage in the game. I can never grasp my head around it. At the end of the day, it came down to my fire making ability and I’ve never been good with that. For everyone watching at home. I was able to prove myself this season (at least I hope.) You can achieve anything you put your mind to and have a great night.

KORU NIGHT 24

Pete: The tribal council that happened tonight was amazing. I proved that I should still be hear by winning that fire challenge and sending Shawna home. All I have to do is win the challenge tomorrow and I am going to final tribal baby.

Kelley: Jenna was talking with me about her and Pete’s final two deal. Her rationale makes zero sense. He is going to beat you and will beat you. I understand you had to attend 10 out of 11 tribal councils, but you don’t deserve it as much as Pete. You are going to lose at the end and I need Pete and Jenna to split up or I am going home if I don’t win the next portion of the challenge.

KORU DAY 25

Kelley: I want to sever the ties that Pete and Jenna have. They would take each other over anything and they got to go home.

Jenna and Kelley talk.

Jenna: I thought the move to take out Shawna and keep Pete was good because I thought I’d be staying loyal and honesty is the best policy yadda yadda. But what Kelley is saying is absolutely right. Jenna likey the plan. Kelley knows that Pete has the best shot to win and so does she. I am breaking off between Pete and playing w/ Kelley because there is a bigger chance of my winning strategy.

**IMMUNITY CHALLENGE DAY 25**

**Nick: Welcome to today’s immunity challenge. For today’s challenge, you will be retrieving balls in a contraption. How it works is you will place one ball in the slot. The ball will fall through the machine until it pops out a shoot. Eventually, there will become more and more balls, making it more difficult to complete. If you drop even one ball, your time in this challenge is over and you are out. Last one standing wins immunity.**

**Challenge Results:** Jenna drops out almost immediately (13 mins). Pete and Kelley battle it out for 57 (mins), with Pete coming out on top. Guaranteeing him a 1 in 2 shot at winning this game.

KORU DAY 25

Pete and Kelley talk together.

Kelley: I pitch the idea that I was never truly loyal to Bob and that Jenna has a way better underdog story than me and so that should be the way you take the vote tonight. I think it’s a better decision that Jenna has a better social game and hasn’t made many enemies. I’m on damage control here. I think I did the best I could.

Pete: Kelley’s pitch was pretty intriguing. She is telling me a lot of interesting facts about her game and it could look better sitting next to someone who is untrustworthy.

Pete and Jenna talk about Kelley.

Jenna: Pete needs to understand that you don’t break promises on Survivor. If he votes me out here, he loses my jury vote since he promised me the final two. If he doesn’t vote me out, he is assured a good vote from another player on the jury since he can use the fact that he is loyal to the people he was loyal to.

Pete: Jenna also made a good point. I know how good it looks for loyalty. Especially the fact that I screwed people like Michelle and Bob.

TRIBAL COUNCIL DAY 25

**Nick: Welcome to tribal. Please welcome our jury Woo, Austin, Michelle, Bob, Sarah and Shawna voted out at the last tribal council. Alright final three. I would like to give both Jenna and Kelley a chance to tell Pete why they should be chosen over the other. Jenna your up first.**

Jenna: Well, congrats on final three guys. I think that I have played a decent game but Kelley has played a better game. Kelley has made more moves like in the final 5 attempting to play the other contestant and she always have been playing everyone against each other. She is sneaky and strategic and has played a better game.

Kelley: While she is making bold statements, I completely agree. I think that I’ve played a better game than Jenna. But if you want a battle at tribal with the top two players in this game, then I am your women. I consider myself a better player than her and if you choose to take the easy way out in me, you made your decision and I hope it pays off.

**Nick: Alright, Pete. It’s your time to vote. (votes) Alright. I’ll read the votes.**

11th person voted out and the 7th and final member of our jury…KELLEY!

**Kelley, please bring me your torch. Kelley, the tribe has spoken. It’s your time to go.**

Kelley Final Words: Well, Pete is a pansy. He took the easy way out. He doesn’t know that was a bad move on his part and will NOT be recieving my vote.

KORU DAY 26

Jenna and Pete rush to the tree-mail to recieve the food.

Jenna: It feels like Christmas morning. Day 26. After going to 10 tribal councils and voting out 10 players, this is definitely earned. I deserve this win more than anyone in the game since they have not been able to outplay as much as I have.

Pete: I’m preparing my thoughts for tribal tonight. I have to cool, calm and collected. People want to see someone win who doesn’t fold under pressure and I need to be able to say that I have done that. I have played both parts of the game and now it is onto Stage 3 and that’s actually winning the game.

FINAL TRIBAL NIGHT 26

**Nick: Welcome to final tribal council. Please welcome our jury. Woo, Austin, Michelle, Bob, Sarah, Shawna and Kelley. Pete and Jenna. You have made it to the furthest points in this game. Day 26. It is now time to give your opening statements. Pete you may start.**

Pete: Welcome to final tribal everyone. I just wanted to say that I have played a good game. Adapting to the 26-day format is definitely difficult but I knew how to step my bounds and my game speaks more to the way that this game should be played than how others want to play it. I played my game at my speed. My social and physical game were on point and I think I’m the most deserving of the title of sole survivor.

Jenna: Hey guys. I have been able to persevere from knowing 1 person in this game, to sitting here on day 26. My game has been loyalty and honesty are the best medicine and I feel like I am most deserving since I have been able to outwit, outplay and outlast the best out of the two of us.

**Nick: Now it is time for those you voted out of the game to have a say in who is the winner. In elimanation order, you can ask your questions. Woo. Your up.**

Woo: So in this game, there is the motto, Outwit Outplay Outlast. Which one did you feel you excelled the most at and how?

Pete: Definitely outplay. I knew about nearly every advantage in this game. I was able to use those advantages to take out certain players like Austin in the final 8. I was close with Michelle but closer with Shawna and so I told her to ask Sarah to play the idol.

Jenna: Outlast. It’s clear to me because I went to 10 out of 11 tribals. I was able to persevere and even in a 6-2 split during merge. I made it here because I was able to make the right relationships to get me here.

Austin: Name one move that you individually made?

Pete: Once I saw how close Sarah and Kelley were getting. I knew I had to break that up real quick since they could end my game real quick. I new they’d use Jenna so I formulated a final 2 with her that I still have obviously that I could use later. I then told Shawna to play her idol because they were going to vote her out. I told her to vote for Sarah and that’s the reason why she is out.

Jenna: The Woo Move. Michelle and Woo were very close. I took out a potential game winning player if he makes merge and also brought Michelle and I closer together which was the strongest alliance going into the merge.

Michelle: What was your best quality in this game and prove how that was it.

Pete: My openness. People felt comfortable to give me information which is why I was able to calculate and vote the way I wanted to in every vote. Being right most of the time.

Michelle: It was my loyalty. When I pledged my loyalty, I didn’t waver. Pete, Michelle and Sarah know this and I bet if you asked them, I was a damn good ally to have.

Bob: If you could play this game a second time, what would you chance in the game?

Pete: Although I was pretty happy with the way I played the game, I would play with more risk. I stayed safe most of the time and relied on immunity’s. I would like to be able to improve my strategic game.

Jenna: Control the second have of the game. Once the second half of the game came, I shut down. Not being able to re-gain confidence. So if I got a redo. I would do that.

Sarah: If you were a top dog, meaning someone who was going to win the game. How would you try to hide your threat level since it was something I failed to do.

Pete: I’d attempt to win challenges and not make much strategic moves so people don’t think I’m a front runner. But in my mind still crunching numbers.

Sarah: Pete’s answer doesn’t make much sense since that is what he did and it couldn’t get his name off the chopping block. For me, I’d lay low and try to regain those relationships. I wouldn’t isolate myself to one alliance.

Shawna: My vote is going to Pete tonight, Jenna how can you change my decision?

Pete doesn’t answer the question.

Jenna: Tonight I believe that I have proven how brave I have. Standing up for the actions I have taken. I played how I wanted and deserve to be respected in this way.

Kelley: Pete your a snake. Apologize for these actions.

Pete: I’m sorry to everyone that I played like a snake. Especially Michelle, Bob and Kelley.

Jenna doesn’t answer the question.

Nick: Alright. Woo your up to vote. Thank you for a great season. (Everyone votes) Alright I will reveal the votes.

First vote….PETE!
