The Final 5 is back at camp. Troy comments it was a crazy Tribal Council. Martin hugs Kendall and tells her he's really thankful.

Troy apologizes to Janessa as she was out of the loop. Janessa says Troy promised her safety. Troy says she was. Janessa says only because she has won immunity. Troy says she really wants to keep her now.

Gary hugs Janessa. Janessa says she's close to cry. Gary says he voted for Kendall at first. Janessa says she would rather do a safe vote and vote out Kendall, because now she's totally alone. Gary says he will do his best to protect Janessa.

### Day 37

The Final 5 arrive at their Reward/Immunity Challenge. Jeff explains the rules. The castaways must swim out and then climb a key of crates. Jumping off the crates, they must grab a bag of key. They must then swim to a balance beam, and cross it, while getting a second set of keys. Using their keys, the castaways will unlock their puzzle. They must then move balls around so they match the corresponding color in the chute. The first person to solve their puzzle wins immunity. This person also wins a reward which is a feast of comfort food at camp. The challenge starts. Martin, Troy and Janessa have an early lead. Kendall is next and Gary is dead last. Martin, Troy and Janessa are head to head. They all do puzzle. In the end Martin wins immunity and reward. Jeff tells him to pick two people that will join him for this reward. Martin picks Gary and Troy. For Kendall and Janessa there's nothing. They're all heading back to camp.

Martin, Troy and Gary are enjoying their reward. Gary says it would be great to go to the Final 3 with this squad. Troy agrees. Martin says that's the plan. Gary says he wants to vote out Kendall before Janessa. Troy thinks Janessa is a more challenge threat than Kendall. Gary thinks Janessa won't win the game, but Kendall is really strategic.

Kendall and Janessa are alone at camp. Kendall feels mad about being on the bottom once again. Janessa says she should have voted out Martin, because Charles was more into voting with them. Kendall says she needs to be alone.

Kendall tells Janessa that she knows Troy was just working with Janessa few hours ago, but now he's the enemy that has to go home. Janessa says she knows, it's the only option.

After some time, Janessa talks with Gary. Janessa asks who is the target. Gary says Janessa doesn't have to worry, because it's Kendall. Janessa is shocked, because she was sure it's her. Gary says Troy is into voting out Kendall first too. Janessa says it's great, because she has a plan. Janessa explains Gary, that the best option is to blindside Troy tonight. Gary is shocked. He says he may consider it. Janessa gets a little bit mad and says it's the only good option, to do something in this game. Gary says he's just irritated that Kendall is going to survive another round. Janessa says she has all her hopes in Gary.

Gary talks with Martin. He asks him is he sure about voting out Kendall. Martin says he also thought about Janessa, but Troy is not on board. Gary says that Janessa approached him and considered voting out Troy. Martin says he's not surprised she's working with Kendall. Gary asks him what he thinks. Martin says he's going to vote for Kendall. Gary says he wants to do what Martin and Troy want to do.

Martin and Troy are talking. Martin tells him that Janessa and Kendall are voting for him tonight. Martin also mentions that Gary was talking about this also, but Martin told him that they're voting out Kendall. Troy says Gary can't know about the plan that they're voting out Janessa. Martin asks is he sure about Janessa, because they can vote Kendall too. Troy says he sees now that Gary is close with Janessa also, so it's better for them to vote her out. Troy also asks what if there's going to be a 2-2 tie between him and Janessa. Martin says he hopes Gary is going to break a tiebreaker by voting out Janessa. Troy shows Martin his idol and tells him that they don't need to worry about it. Martin is so happy, he hugs Troy.

At Tribal Council Troy uses his Hidden Immunity Idol. After him, Gary also uses his Hidden Immunity Idol. It leaves Kendall and Janessa as the only two people vulnerable. In the end Janessa is voted out by a vote of 2-1-0-0.

## Story

### Night 37

The Final 4 is back from the Tribal Council where Janessa was voted out.

Gary and Martin are talking. Gary asks him what happened about Kendall blindside. Martin says he's sorry about not telling Gary any information about this, but Janessa was really sketchy and he wanted to protect Troy and in case of some tiebreaker, he trusted Gary enough that he knew he would vote out Kendall or Janessa. Gary says he doesn't know now how he would do this. Martin tells Gary to not be sensitive about it. Gary thinks Martin is treating him like a pawn. Martin says he promises Gary that he's going to the Final 3 with him for 100%. Gary says so it comes down to Kendall versus Troy. Martin says he thinks they should consider who's a bigger threat to their game.

### Day 38

The Final 4 wakes up. Troy says how crazy it is that tommorow is the end. Gary feels like he's here forever.

Troy, Martin and Gary are talking. Troy says it would be great to have three Hustlers in the Final 3. Martin says it's crazy that all of the Hustlers girls went home so early and they're still here. Troy is excited. Gary says they have to do everything to vote out Kendall next. Troy thinks there's no way she's going to win against three strong boys.

Kendall sits alone by the beach thinking about the Final Immunity Challenge.

Later on, Kendall talks with Gary. Kendall says that she knows they were not in a good terms, but they should consider voting out the biggest threat next. Gary asks who she's considering. Kendall thinks Troy is going to win this game if he's not going to be taken out. Gary says he agrees, so they need to talk about it later. Kendall is excited.

The Final 4 arrives on their Final Immunity Challenge. Jeff explains the rules of the challenge. The castaways must stack letter blocks on a wobbly platform. The first person to spell "Heroes", "Healers", and "Hustlers" without any upside-down letters and lock in their mechanism wins. The winner is guaranteed a spot in the Final 3. Jeff also tells everybody that except being guaranteed to be in the Final 3, there is a twist. The winner of today's challenge also receives a final Secret Advantage of the game. The challenge starts. Gary starts really quickly, but he loses his blocks. Kendall is really focused and she takes two blocks at a time. Troy and Martin are in the lead. They're competing against each other, after them it's Kendall and Gary on his last shouting how bad he is. Troy and Martin have "Heroes and Healers" done, but out of nowhere Martin drops everything. Troy starts to work very slowly on the challenge. Kendall is now closer to Troy. Gary picks up his pace. Troy drops, so it's now Kendall versus Gary. Gary is very close to finish spelling "Hustlers" as the last word. He drops. It leaves Kendall, the only person who have three words spelled. As Kendall tries to win the challenge, Troy and Martin are trying to put their words together again. Gary loses his pieces all the time. Kendall thinks she has it, she tries to lock in, but she loses almost everything. It opens the door to Troy and Martin. Troy and Martin are together on the last letters of the "Hustlers" word. Troy loses his pieces. But Martin does it. Martin wins the immunity and the secret advantage, he's guaranteed a spot in the Final 3. Martin cries as he's so happy. Gary feels defeated. Kendall also cries, as she's exhausted. They go back to camp, as Martin wears the immunity necklace.

The Final 4 is back to camp. Everybody congrats Martin. Kendall is still really emotional. Martin hugs her and tells her she did a great job.

Troy talks with Martin in the woods. Troy's jumping with joy as Martin have won immunity. Martin says he would love to go with the Hustlers to the Final 3. Troy says they can definitely win against Gary, so it comes to himself and Martin. Martin shakes Troy's hand.

Troy and Gary are talking. Troy asks Gary is he going to vote for Kendall. Gary says that Martin winning immunity really made things complicated. Troy is worried. Gary says he would love to sit next to Troy in the Final 3, because both Martin and Kendall are threats, but now as Martin is safe, it leaves Kendall for him. Troy asks is he going to vote for Kendall for sure. Gary says he think he's going to. Troy is overwhelmed.

Kendall talks with Martin. Kendall congrats Martin once again and she starts to talk about the strategy. Martin thinks that Gary is non-threatning for the Final 3, but at the same time he didn't piss anybody off. Kendall says that Gary's got friend in the Jury and also he has found an advantage and the Hidden Immunity Idol. Martin asks Kendall does she think Gary should go home. Kendall says that for her it still should be Troy going home, because he has a bigger reputation. Martin says he knows it, because he used to see Troy as a threat just few days ago.

Martin sits alone near the rocks and starts to read the advantage. "Congratulations, you are in the Final 3. You've also won an advantage in form of information. This is the last and perhaps the biggest secret of the game and you are the only one who knows. Tonight, you are in charge and will cast the only vote. *(shocked)* You will choose one person to sit next to you at the Final Tribal Council, forcing the two remaining players to earn their way to the end by battling out in a fire-making challenge. The winner secures the final sit. The loser becomes the Final Member of the Jury." Martin doesn't know what to say. He starts to laugh and then being nervous again.

Martin talks with Gary. He tells him that he's going to tell him his super advantage. Gary is shocked. Martin says it's him making a million dollar decision right now. Gary gets stressed. Martin tells him that he has to choose one person that is going to sit next to you in the Final 3 and two people are going to fight in the fire-making challenge. Gary is totally blindsided. Martin tells him that he's going to take Gary. Gary gets emotional, he hugs Martin and is very thankful to Martin.

Martin tells Gary that he's not going to tell Troy and Kendall about it. Gary thinks maybe it's a good idea to tell it to one of them, so they can prepare themselves. Martin says that he was thinking about it too, but he's worried that he's going to tell this information to the wrong person. Gary says he would tell this to Kendall, so Troy would lose it.

The Final 4 slowly is getting ready for their Tribal Council.

At Tribal Council Kendall and Troy are talking that they're sure it's between both of them, so Martin and Gary are in the Final 3 for sure. Troy hopes that the Hustlers boys are staying together and Kendall tells how big of a threat Troy is. Martin finally tells everybody, including the Jury about his secret advantage. He says he has to pick one person with him to the Final 3 and the other two are going to fight in the fire-making challenge. The Jury is surprised, but so are Kendall and Troy. Martin tells Jeff Probst that he's going to take Gary to the Final 3, so Kendall and Troy are going to fight for their spot. Kendall and Troy are taking their spots so they're going to compete against each other. The challenge begins. Kendall and Troy are starting to make their fire. Kendall is doing it very slowly and carefully, Troy has a different strategy with hitting very quickly. Troy's got a flame first. He tries to make the fire bigger as it gets bigger. Kendall also has a fire after some time, she puts her sticks to make it bigger. Troy loses his fire slowly, he tries to control it. Kendall slowly puts her sticks, so she can control the fire. Troy loses his fire more and more, as it's a little flame right now. Kendall is very close to win it. In the end, Kendall's flame cuts the line as she joins the Final 3 eliminating Troy, as he becomes the Final Jury Member. Troy hugs Martin, Kendall and Gary. He tells Martin that he did the right thing. Martin is thankful to Troy for everything. Troy goes towards Jeff Probst as he snuffs his torch. Then he cogratulates Martin, Gary and Kendall on making it to the Final 3. He tells them that tommorow night they will have their shot to make the Jury vote for him. He then sends them back to camp telling them to enjoy their last day tommorow.

## Story

### Day 39

The Final 3 wakes up after yesterday Tribal Council. Gary cries as he's so excited to be here. Kendall hugs Gary and they're laughing about how weird their relationship was. Martin joins them and talks about how surreal it is to be here on Day 39.

Gary tells Martin and Kendall that they've got their Day 39 feast here already. Kendall and Martin are running to Gary to celebrate their victory. Gary says that he's so happy to be here and despite them being in such a crazy alliance, he's glad to be here with Kendall and Martin. They start to feast.

The Final 3 are watching their last sunset. Kendall again gets emotional as she says she can't believe it's over. Martin says these 39 days went so quickly. Gary agrees saying he remembers how they've started - with Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers. Kendall is glad to be the last one standing Healer.

The Final 3 says goodbye to their camp as they head to the Final Tribal Council where Jury will decide who wins this season of Survivor Fanon by Bartosh.

### Final Tribal Council

The Final 3: Gary, Kendall and Martin arrive at the Final Tribal Council. Then Jury of 8 arrives. It's Nataly, Marjorie, Kelsey, Ty, Caspian, Charles, Janessa and Troy voted out in the last Tribal Council. Jeff then announces that Tribal Council will allow open question and answer session between the Jury and the final three. It will be centered on the three aspects of the game, which are outwit, outlast and outplay. The jury then addresses the final three, asking them vital questions to help make their decisions of who is the most worthy of the million-dollar prize and the title of Sole Survivor.

Jeff tells them to start with the outwit portion of the game, which is the social part of Survivor. Janessa starts first saying that Martin and Gary had one of the best social games ever, because nobody was ever mad at Martin and Gary. She asks them both, but also Kendall what as the social game-changer for them. Gary says that for him it was a swap to Dodonu tribe, where he could meet different people and despite playing with Hustlers all the way, he had Janessa, Kelsey and Ty as his secret advantage. Kelsey says that's what is weird to her, because she feels like in the end of the day Gary was doing all of these relationships for game, not because it was social, so it was not social - it was strategic. Troy agrees saying that he knows Gary since Day 1, but after he left yesterday, he saw how Gary is glad about him leaving, so it was not nice, because Kendall and Martin were very respectful to him. Gary disagrees saying that it was from his heart, those relationships, but it's true he was happy about Troy leaving, because in the end of the day it's a game, so he was glad to see his biggest competitor going home. Nataly says she thinks Martin was having the best social game, because he was honest with everybody. Troy agrees saying that even though they were friends and he could help him staying in the game by spilling the beans about his secret advantage, he wanted him and Kendall to have the same shot at the fire-making challenge. Caspian says for him it was Martin's million dollar mistake, because he took Kendall who now is a threat to his game. Martin says that if Troy would win, it would be even worse, because he considers Troy to being his biggest competitor. However, Martin wanted Troy and Kendall to compete in a fair game, because he wanted them to decide on their fate. Marjorie says she understand that point of view, because she knows that the Hustlers were very close to each other, but she would like to get to know Kendall's social game. Marjorie says that her relationship with Kendall was all a lie. Kendall was once close to Marjorie, but then she stabbed her in the back at least twice. Kendall says her relationship with Marjorie was honest, because she cared about her, but when people were saying her name, she just had to put social game into the box and play the strategic game. Marjorie laughs saying that Kendall was the reason why Marjorie is in the Jury. Ty says that in his perspective, Kendall and Gary have done their relationships based on strategy, so in the end of the day, it was not a social game, it was a strategic gameplay. Charles says that it's brilliant that, even though he had his rivalry with Martin on Day 36, when he was voting against him and Martin blindsided Charles, he still was not mad about it, because Martin was honest with his moves and honest with his behaviours even in the moment of Charles going home. Nataly agrees saying that it's something that nobody can say Martin doesn't have. Kendall says that for her, all of her relationships where honest, but there were moment hard for her, when she was on the bottom since Caspian going home that she found hard trying to play her social game, because Gary, Martin and Troy were too close. Kendall mentions that even Janessa and Charles were close to them so she felt totally cut off from any conversation, so her social game had to be put away so she started to play more of a strategic game.

Jeff changes the focus to the outplay portion of Survivor where they have to make shelter, compete in challenges, maneuver through tribe switches and know how to best play idols. Charles starts saying that he thinks that the tribe swap where Martin was with him and Kendall was a huge game-changer for his game, because he did an amazing job with making an alliance that led him to the end. Janessa says she also thinks that Martin did a great job, but at the same time they have to admit that Gary was amazing too, because he was "the weakest" Hustler alone in Dodonu tribe, but he created some deals too. Troy says for him this thing is hard to say about Kendall, because she left her Healers for good. Kendall says it's not true, because after the Phil vote, they were together on blindsiding Nataly, as she was close to Martin. Kendall says she used her Healers to get where she wanted to be and when she saw her ex-alliance being a threat, she joined the other forces. Marjorie says she understands that, but at the same time she voted out Nataly, not Martin. Kendall agrees but she says that Marjorie was also a part of it, so she doesn't understand what the point is. Marjorie says that the point is, that she used Healers for her goals and that's ok, because it's a game, she did a good job with tribe switch and going to the merge, because the Healers were sure they can trust Kendall, but in reality they couldn't. Kelsey says that's what makes Kendall an amazing player, because she was controlling everybody and even without immunities, she is here in the Final 3. Caspian agrees saying Kendall won immunities in the most important moments. Kelsey adds, she would survive if Kendall wouldn't win the challenge on Day 27 so she knew when she needed to win like yesterday. Ty agrees saying that it was really impressive to beat Troy, a really strong MMA fighter in fire. Troy mentions that if it comes down to challenges, the last two were the most important and they both were won by Martin. Marjorie agrees saying that Martin won his challenges in the best moment for him, because he was targeted by everybody. Charles says it was because people know they wouldn't win against Martin in the end, so on Day 36 he won against Charles because of his social game and then he just won because of immunities and it's something very impressive. Janessa says that when it comes to idol play, Gary has found two advantages and it's amazing, because he had people, relationships and also advantages. Gary says the best part is that his strategy made him to the point that his idol was useless, because he didn't need it. Gary says he played such a good social game that people were not into voting him out. Ty says he thinks it's because there were bigger threats than Gary, because both of his advantages were played in a way that they didn't change anything in the game.

Jeff brings them to focus on the last portion of the game, which is the outlast portion of the game. The focus now is whether they put the right people on the jury that respect their outwit and outplay more than the other two. Gary is first to start. Gary says that every single person on the Jury have a relationship with Gary. He says that he worked with everybody and the only majority votes that he was not a part of were Nataly, Ty and Janessa's elimination. He says that it was all because Nataly and Janessa were close to him and it was just a pure blindside, with Ty's blindside when Caspian has played his idol. Gary adds that despite those three votes, he was a part of every vote and he was really important on every vote. He also mentions that he's proud of the Jury, even though he's sad to see all of his friend sitting here, but he knows that he has friend on the Jury that can help him to win a million dollar prize. Kendall's next. Kendall starts to tell that she is responsible for Nataly's, Marjorie's, Kelsey's, Ty's and Troy's vote. She adds that she thinks those people that she just mentioned were the biggest threats of the season. Charles is surprised and he laughs. Kendall says that she was so honest that Caspian trusted her enough that she knew about his idol and blindsiding Ty. She also says she has beaten Troy in a fire-making challenge which is great. She lied to Marjorie and Kelsey and she's aware of that, but it made people consider them a bigger threats than she really was. She was all strategic and she thinks that people knew she was and she still is. It's time for Martin. Martin says that he actually was not a part of Nataly's, Marjorie's or Ty's blindside, but for him it doesn't matter. He knew a lot of information every time, because people came to him when they needed. Martin says that he had a fight with Troy, because they were both considering each other the frenemies. He laughs. Martin continues saying that with all these informations, he was able to do moves, to make ideas and in the end of the day, he was not having any blood on his hands. With Janessa blindside, she was more mad at Gary than him. Janessa nods her head. Martin says all of this because he played like he teaches his kids as he's a teacher - be honest and be true to yourself. Martin says that he believes that with all those moves, he was really careful with people, so in the end of the day they liked him. Martin says he was a threat, but he ended up blindsides based on friendships that he has built.

Jeff thanks for the live Final Tribal Council. He tells the Jury to have their moment to think who should be the Sole Survivor of Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers. Then he calls for the vote. The eight Jury Members then cast their votes for the winner. Jeff thanks again the Jury and the Final 3 for awesome season. He tells everybody that he's going to see everybody back at Los Angeles.

Jeff Probst reads the votes live from Los Angeles, and with the majority of the 6 votes cast for him, Martin wins the title of Sole Survivor and the million dollar prize for Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers.
