18x06 - The First Fifteen Days

[bunniefuu]

PROBST: The first 15 days of

Survivor: Tocantins have seen

some of the most memorable

castaways yet.

They've been competing fiercely

in one of the most unforgiving

environments in the world.

This is what you've seen so

far.

Survivors ready?

Go!

Timbira wins immunity!

That's not okay.

Who the hell do you think

you are?

That will get old really

quick.

PROBST: Carolina, the tribe

has spoken.

Candace trying to take Taj down.

J.T. fakes out Jerry!

Jalapao wins.

You're now going to send one

member of Timbira to Exile

Island.

Now, to the twist, choose

one member of the winning tribe

to join you.

Taj.

You work Sierra.

I'll work Steve.

We would have a four-way

alliance that nobody knows

about.

That nobody knows about.

Exactly.

You're the best accomplice

ever.

I think they're going to be

under- or overcooked.

Hopefully, Candace has her

bags packed because she is out

of here.

PROBST: The tribe has spoken.

Debbie!

Brendan!

Debbie, where's our bucket?

I don't know.

I can't see it!

PROBST: Jalapao wins

immunity!

I found the idol.

Yes!

Hey, everybody, Jerry's sick.

See you, Jerry.

PROBST: Timbira does win

immunity!

I'm voting for Sandy because

she's crazy.

Do you want to be a part of

the biggest upset on Survivor

history?

Yes, I do.

Okay, stuff this in your

pocket.

Do something with it.

Hide it.

I might have just stumbled

a*s-backwards into a huge

alliance.

J.T.!

PROBST: J.T., unbelievable!

Yeah, J.T.!

Launch!

PROBST: Timbira wins

immunity!

Somebody has to go tonight.

It's gotta be Spence.

PROBST: Fifth person voted

out of Survivor: Tocantins.

Tonight, a special episode of

Survivor, with new scenes

highlighting your favorite

contestants...

and giving deeper insight

into the game.

PROBST: Enduring the intense

heat of the Brazilian highlands,

traveling on a dusty, endless

road to nowhere, this season's

castaways were split into two

tribes, and they were about to

begin a cutthroat game where

first impressions meant

everything.

Being in the back of that

truck really did give you a

good amount of time to just

kind of size everybody up and

see what you're up against.

As for first impressions

with people, I try not to come

into it with too many because

I think that gets you in trouble

a lot of times.

My first impression of the

girl in the gray striped

T-shirt, obviously, was upset;

she had her head down, and, yes,

it was hot, we were all hot, but

we weren't showing it.

And so, I really didn't feel

like she wanted to be here with

us.

It was blazing hot.

I had a fever.

I was so sick.

I didn't even give a flying

... what they thought

about me.

Whoa!

PROBST: You will have 60

seconds to gather as much as you

can.

Your time starts now because

this game is on!

Get down.

I'll hand it to you.

Here, hand it to me.

We have the long-haired guy

that, uh, looks like the love

child of Stephen Segal and the

last of the Mohicans.

So, if he can pull any of those

skills out, you know, survival

skills like an Indian or, uh,

karate moves like Stephen Segal,

he's a good guy to have on your

side, I think.

I plan on day one to take

the leadership role.

Now, is that going to be a

shared role?

It depends.

The characteristics and the

qualities that I have as an

individual has been forged like

an iron thrown into the fire and

coming out unshakable,

unbreakable, invincible like a

sword.

I know who I am.

We are screwed.

They have Stephen Segal.

What the hell are we going to

do against the [indistinct] man?

I have no idea.

We clearly have, physically, a

weaker tribe.

Um, there's the hot, blonde

girl.

It really is going to be a

shame when we have to vote her

off.

I guess I'm, you know, a

professional model now.

I mean, I've been doing it for

three and a half years, but, um,

yeah, I don't know, it's still

kind of funny to me because I

just, I laugh at myself a lot.

PROBST: You guys have a long

journey ahead of you.

You need to get to camp.

You need to start working on

shelter.

The tribes began an epic

four-hour journey toward their

camps, but Jalapao stumbled out

of the gate.

This was our mark, right?

I'm not afraid to run back to

the road and look at it.

I think that might be our

best point, our best idea.

You think so?

Yeah, I would definitely

because I'm not sure what tree

we're looking at.

As long as we don't veer off

that line, I know we do avoid

trees and stuff, it will still

be the same degree.

That's true.

That's true, all right.

If we just hit that strip

of palm trees, we'll be fine.

Well, J.T.'s, he's from 'Bama

That's right.

J.T. is more of a brawn guy,

not your sophisticate,

intellect, academia-type guy.

People's impression of me

might be that I'm a hillbilly

sometimes, uh, but I consider a

hillbilly someone uneducated.

I don't think a hillbilly would

make it very far in this game.

Uh, there's no doubt in my mind

I can win or I'd have stayed

at home.

I'm here to win and I'm going

to win.

Are we going the right way,

y'all?

My biggest strategy going in

will just be "k*ll them with

kindness."

I'll be so nice to them, they're

not going to want to kick me

off.

You guys okay?

Okay.

Because another thing I think

that they're probably

underestimating about me is

that I look fat.

But I'm not really fat.

I'm muscular.

So, when I'm winning challenges,

they won't have a reason to try

to kick me off.

They can't.

I'm going to be so good at this

they won't be ready for me.

Whoo!

[cheering]

[squealing]

Chew it! Chew it!

Don't waste it.

I guess it's like God's

candy.

Is this for real?

Thanks, God.

PROBST: On their first full

day at camp, but without fire to

cook their beans...

What happens if you just eat

dry beans?

PROBST: ...Timbira had to

resort to other sources of food

for much-needed protein.

Did you get it?

No.

I think it's going to be a

lot harder than anybody

realizes out here.

Foraging for food is going to be

difficult.

Dang.

I'm getting slower, I think.

Want to give it a try?

We're trying to catch fish.

We've got a burlap bag and

we try to drop different things

in and grab fish.

You got one?

Yes, a teeny little one.

At least it's one.

Eat it.

Eat that.

You go, you go, Debbie.

I'll eat that one that

you've got in your hands.

Why, because this guy...

Yeah, 'cause that one's

gross.

Ugh!

Put your mouth there.

Uh, okay.

Chew it! Chew it!

Chew it.

Don't just waste it.

Yummy, sushi, sashimi.

Mmm.

Okay, it actually did taste

a little like sushi.

That is definitely not in my

character, but I threw it in my

mouth and chewed it up as quick

as I could to get a little

protein.

I cannot believe I just chewed

up a live fish in my teeth.

I'm gonna clean these

things out.

The fish, we have just those

little minnows to eat, but we

found, uh, that fruit that

smells like foot.

Jerry!

Yeah.

All that jatoba.

Shut your mouth!

No, it's really, it's better

than eating the...

I'm having a hard time

sticking this in my mouth.

Come on. It's good.

This is a Brazilian fruit

called a jatoba, and, uh, it's

got like a really hard, like,

pod shell on it, and then inside

it's got this almost powdery

flesh.

It really makes you thirsty.

It kind of sucks all the saliva

out of your mouth.

Is this for real?

Yeah.

Come on. How is it?

Uh-uh.

But here, there's nothing

else to eat, so, it's, I guess

it's like God's candy in Brazil.

So, thanks, God.

PROBST: On day seven, after

winning comfort items in a

reward challenge, Jalapao's

campfire was out and getting the

fire restarted proved to be a

tough task.

[metal and wood scratching]

I'm doing something wrong

here.

Try to strike into it more.

Like that?

Strike it.

Strike it.

There you go.

Strike it. Like, hit it.

There you go.

That's how I did it.

Stephen really wanted to

make a fire because he's never

made a fire.

He's out there with the flint,

with the machete, dinging away.

It was hilarious.

He could not make a freaking

spark.

On the scale of 1 to 100,

my wilderness skills are at

about a 1.

I cannot make fire, and that is

embarrassing.

Aah!

I'll do it some other time.

This is stupid.

Sure?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right.

I might not be able to start

it, either.

[chuckles]

I grew up fishing with my

dad outdoors all the time, so

I've-I...

you know, I've lived the

outdoors.

I'm not just a girly girl, you

know.

I'm not just some pretty girl

that they're...

You know, they can flirt with.

[sighing]

Yes.

Good job, Syd.

Oh, nice, Sydney.

Fuego.

[chuckles]

At first, Sydney was

definitely getting by on her

looks, on her charm, on her

girlish laugh.

But Sydney made fire for us,

you know?

She's a woodland goddess and I

think, for that reason, she's a

big threat to me.

[laughing]

PROBST: At Timbira, Tyson was

busy enhancing the first

impression he'd made on his

fellow castaways, proving that

value to a tribe can come in

many ways.

I smell like a man today.

[laughing]

They think I just always smell

like flowers and exotic fruits.

Who am I?

Um...

Oh, that question.

Who am I?

Pretty well-balanced individual,

I'd say.

Oh, my God!

Let's win!

Oh, God.

[gasping]

Tyson never, ever ceases to

amaze me.

I can do that.

[laughing]

Oh, my God.

See?

Did you see the arch in his

back?

Yeah, you have to do the

arch.

It pops better.

I don't even know how to do

the arch thing.

Honestly, I think Tyson is

somebody that everybody better

watch out.

I think Tyson has the real

potential to win this game.

Try and get through this.

A little Tai Bo here, or

what?

Are you sparring?

What are you doing?

I was going to kick her in

the [bleep].

[laughing]

Tyson, he's always cracking

a joke.

One of a kind.

I mean, that's probably what

attracts me to him so much,

you know, not in a sexual way.

Take you to the ground right

here.

[laughing]

Ow.

What you doing, Debbie?

[laughing]

Debbie.

I want you to stop.

Stop doing that to me.

My parents are going to see

that, Debra!

You weren't very quick to

get off.

That is not lady-like.

I slipped and got stuck!

I don't know what you were

doing.

I was bent over looking at the

ground and you jumped right on

top.

Your boobs popped out?

Maybe.

That's fitting.

I'm not the stereotypical

Mormon.

I respect the church and the

people in it, but for myself,

personally, you know, there's

things I want to do and not

necessarily that are sinning.

Oh, no!

We'll see what happens when

I get home and everyone disowns

me.

Okay, team, I got tired of the

rope.

Oh, yeah, look at that.

[laughing]

Debbie!

Oh, my God.

Debbie!

You'll never be able to have

children again.

I don't care.

I'll probably have to move

somewhere else, somewhere less

Mormony.

Make beans?

I've always seen two people do

it.

Sierra, we've got to do

chores by ourselves.

We can't all hold each other's

hands.

Don't talk to me like I'm

stupid.

I'm just saying it doesn't

take two people.

I was not being condescending.

]I'm pissed.

How many handfuls of beans

should I do?

PROBST: Sierra made a bad

first impression with her

Timbira tribemates, but by day

eight, her strength seemed to

be returning and Coach was

ready to put her to work.

Sierra, how about you cook

the beans?

Make fire and the beans?

You'd have only one person

doing it.

One person putting the firewood

on the fire, same person cooking

the beans, and nobody stomping

around.

I've always seen two people

do it.

That's why we're getting

stuff in our beans and our

rice because there are too

many people around there.

I'm watching the stuff fly up

in the air while stuff is

cooking.

Sierra, you put a log on the

fire, then put another log on

the fire, and then stir the

beans, and then wait.

Yeah, I understand.

Put another log on the fire.

It doesn't take two people.

Don't talk to me like I'm

stupid.

I'm just saying it doesn't

take two people.

Yeah, but it's nice to have

someone, like a female, like

tending the fire and then one's

cooking and then...

You know what I mean?

It's nice to...

Sierra, we've got to do

chores by ourselves.

We can't all hold each other's

hands, and for to you say that

you want somebody there to talk

to, I mean, there's a lot of

stuff to do.

Yeah.

You know, we got to...

I know and I've been part

of it since day one.

I know that, but I'm

just saying we got to start

doing stuff independently, as

well.

Okay, that's fine.

What are you guys going to be

doing while I'm doing that?

Fishing.

All of you are going to go

fishing?

We're going to take about

four of us down there and

see if we can just surround

them and fish.

Okay.

Is that going to stress you

out?

It looks like it's stressing

you out.

Why don't you talk to me from

over here, so you don't get dirt

in the beans?

[chuckling]

I'm one of the ones working the

hardest, so...

I'm really getting tired of

people like Coach saying

things, "You need to do this,"

and shaking their finger and

coming down on me.

They think they can 'cause

they think they're older than me

and they think they're more

knowledgeable.

Um, it's only going to make me

turn on them faster.

I can be very condescending,

but as a leader or just as a

person, that's not somebody

that I want to be.

I was not being condescending

towards Sierra.

I was actually just trying to

wean her from the [bleep],

so to speak.

I don't think she's going to

fully realize her potential

when people keep coddling her.

There's a bunch of big, juicy

ones up there.

Uh-huh.

It's been a bountiful tree,

hasn't it been?

Yeah.

Not very talkative.

I'm pissed.

So, you want me to tell you

why I was picking on you?

Yeah.

I was gently trying to push

you out of the nest.

And I just...

I wanted to see you like,

expand yourself because I know

you can.

Mm-hmm.

You know, there's this part

of your personality that is

very dependent and there's this

part of your personality that's

very independent.

That's true.

Same as me.

But you can never coast in

life, in this game, and you

know that.

Now that I think about it

and start to, like, cool off,

I don't think Coach thinks I'm

stupid.

I think he has higher

expectations for me than he

does for other people.

He thinks of me as a strong

female.

You're going to be harder on

that one just so that they play

harder in a game.

And I think that's what...

where his mind's really at.

And I could very well be wrong,

but I think there's some good

intent behind it.

Thanks, Coach.

PROBST: Later that day, at

Jalapao, the muck and grime of

the game gave Sydney another

chance to prove her worth.

Look at this.

Is that a...

That is wild.

Nice.

Look at...

Looky here.

Birthmark there.

It is so dirty out here.

We live in ash, and it clings

to you.

Get away from me.

Every morning we get dirtier

and dirtier, so it's, um...

It's been kind of annoying for

us.

I mean, I'm totally down for a

floor.

And that would solve all of our

problem with the soot, with the

palms.

J.T. has had the plan to lift

our shelter off the ground, and

it's a good idea.

You know, why not try it?

And I wanted to show him that

I'm behind him 100%, and let's

just do it.

Let's go.

This is going to be awesome.

I don't think I'm the leader

of Jalapao.

I've just always been one where

I'm ready to get something done,

I do it myself.

So, I'm not doing it just to be

the leader or do anybody else

any favors.

I'm doing it because I want to

get it done, and that's the

best way to do something.

Wow.

Can I contribute here?

Is there anything I can do here?

Tying?

Digging?

Posting?

Uh...

I did think Stephen was

somewhat nerdy when we started

out.

It feels like I have a little

brother or sidekick.

He's definitely a city boy.

I think we're kind of going

along as we go, but we could

definitely use your help, yeah.

I think J.T. holds the power

right now.

So I'm definitely trying to get

on his good side a little bit.

I think people have their first

impressions of me, and, you

know, and I always try to prove

that wrong.

I think we did a really good

job on... on, you know, getting

the floor off the ground.

I'll sleep better tonight.

That's for sure.

[thunder rumbling]

PROBST: The battle for tribe

leader had been ongoing between

Brendan and Coach at Timbira,

and on day eight, they went

toe-to-toe to provide comfort

for the tribe.

Hey, Coach, when you do

the seat...

Yes.

...can you... any chance you

could put ropes in between it?

I think it's more comfortable...

I was actually going to put

three together.

Oh, put three together.

I was going to put three

together.

But it's got to be

comfortable this time.

The thing is, is that every

time I make another seat around

here, everybody uses it and I

don't even get it use my own

seat.

Well, you're making it for

the good...

making your own personal seat.

No, I'm not!

I'm just saying...

No.

I would love something to do.

Give me some twine.

I'll undo the twine.

A bench-making contest?

Yes.

Ooh, I love to see the alpha

men go at it.

Coach is definitely a

character.

We're competing here and there

but to me, this is about having

a good time.

That's what we came out here to

do, and so any time, you know,

you're not, you should kind of

check yourself and be like,

let's do it.

Coach needs it more than I

do.

I've got longer rope.

Funky.

There is a very serious vying

for the spot of alpha male

contest happening right now.

I don't think it has anything to

do with benches or swings or

seats.

I think it's who can come out

on top, as usual.

Put your a*s going in between

the two.

That's even worse.

Oh, please.

This is terrible, man!

Tearing the tribe apart,

guys.

The ladies will come over

and judge.

So we're having a bench-

building contest, which we love.

Because now we have more places

to sit.

Now we have more seats.

And what my idea is, like, let's

start having contests of who can

get the river water faster.

All the time, yeah.

Who can get the beans going

the fastest.

Who can collect the most

firewood?

We'll judge them all.

It will be great.

Oh, see, I can't leave that.

Oh, this is very comfortable!

[Tarzan yell]

I haven't sat on that one

yet.

That's definitely going

to be more comfortable.

Yeah, and we said that it

was only about comfort, man.

It was not about time.

It was not about people.

It was about taking care of

the tribe.

Yeah, I think I know where

Coach's button is.

We did not say it.

Coach, it's not about you.

It's about the tribe.

I know it's about the tribe.

Why do you think I wanted to

have a bench-building contest

in the first place?

This is the most fun I've had

in a while.

I'm an entrepreneur, so I

started a business.

When I think about business,

you know, every day, when you

build something from scratch,

interacting with people that

you've never met before is

something I adore.

You know, Coach tries to act

like a coach all the time.

We're not out here to have a

coach.

We don't need one.

You know, we're out here to have

friends; we're out here to work

with people.

'Cause it will fall down

when you sit on it.

This is delicious.

Good job.

That was good.

PROBST: At Jalapao, Taj, used

to a high standard of living

back home, was having a hard

time adjusting to the elements.

Your back is really, really

bad.

Yeah.

I can't believe I look like

this.

I feel like a leper.

How are you feeling?

Are you all right?

No, I'm fine.

No, you can come on.

We're just... I'm chitchatting

with her, man.

I know she had a...

I can't look at myself.

I just feel so ugly.

It must have been really hard

last night.

Oh, God.

Oh, God. Oh, my God.

I'm sorry.

[sobbing]

I got a little emotional

because I just looked at

myself...

and I just had a moment

because I just... I don't know

what's going on.

My back is just destroyed.

And I still have to go home.

So I just don't want to go home

looking like a wreck.

One of the hardest things

you've ever done?

You know, it wasn't so much

hard.

I swear, I can handle this.

It's just the after-effect

looking at myself.

I'm just like, "Ew!"

What am I doing to myself?

What am I doing?

To my body, yeah.

I never felt so ugly before

in my life.

Stephen came down and he talked

to me and they made me feel

better, but...

I'm just having a moment.

Everyone has their moments out

here, and today is mine.

I'm just more determined now.

I cannot go home empty-handed

looking like this.

[laughs]

I thought I saw a snake

going through the rafters.

Oh, my gosh!

Oh!

Coach-- just the biggest joke

on the planet.

PROBST: After a restless

night of sleep, on morning ten,

Timbira was still making

discoveries about the dangers of

their environment.

I heard something about a

snake, too.

It was a nightmare, a

flashback from when I was on the

Amazon and a snake wrapped

around my neck.

I was having that nightmare

sometimes; it's reoccurring.

[indistinct audio]

That's okay.

I was just like, well...

It's one thing to have that

dream at home and talking in

your sleep, but when...

When it could happen here.

Last night, Coach woke up

and screamed, "Snake."

Well, we thought he was dreaming

and being silly or whatever.

Oh, my gosh!

Okay, has anybody else seen

this?

What?

That is a snake skin.

Oh, gross.

This wasn't here yesterday.

Oh, my gosh!

A snake has shed his skin

right here.

Brendan, come see what we found.

I told you I saw a snake in

there last night, man.

I thought you were you were

dreaming about it.

Maybe it wasn't a dream.

Oh, my God!

I swear, man, I looked up

and I thought I saw a snake

going through the rafters.

Really?

I'm not kidding.

But then I thought it was my

reoccurring dream of being in

the Amazon.

They're not going to just

come up and bite us while we're

sleeping, would they?

They could.

Okay, this is really freaky.

We really got to be careful

out here.

This place is infested with

snakes, with nasty, poisonous

snakes.

So I'm being very careful as to

where I step.

Hey, we're in the wild.

That's what happens.

We're part of their environment.

That just really bums me out.

PROBST: While over at

Jalapao...

...J.T. and Joe enjoyed some

good, sporting fun.

Though it didn't stop Joe from

thinking about the game.

A little jatoba ball.

Oh!

Right now, it's probably J.T.

leading Jalapao.

And I don't think there's a lot

of tension between J.T.

and I right now.

Oh!

You brought the heat.

It's kind of nice to have

somebody you can just let take

over and then also, you know,

the spotlight isn't on you.

Take a little saliva off

that ball.

Maybe it will fly straight.

That's at least a triple.

My kind of ace in the hole,

as compared to J.T.,

is going to be my strategy and

kind of my social game moving

forward.

All right, here you go.

Single.

Is that all?

That was it.

He's more of the basic just

kind of provider, you know,

kind of just alpha male type of

guy.

A little fungo.

Oh!

Oh, dude. Ow.

Right back at ya.

You tried to get me off the

plate.

My bad.

Oh, that's gone.

What in the hell?

I'd imagine that as we go

further on in the game, it will

get a little tense, and, you

know, that's something that I'm

prepared for.

I know that's going to happen.

We better quit or we'll lose

an eye.

I think I won, dude.

[sighs]

PROBST: After two visits to

Tribal Council, spirits were

down at Timbira, so Coach called

upon his conducting skills to

orchestrate some smiles.

Tonight we're gonna play

Peter Tchaikovsky's "March

Slav," and it goes like this.

Okay.

[humming lively melody]

[voice deepens, continues

singing]

And then I cue the strings.

Ready and...

[singing minor-key melody]

And that means I want a little

crescendo and then a

decrescendo.

[continues minor-key melody]

[continues singing melody]

Who is this jackass?

[singing melody]

Coach-- just the biggest

joke on the planet.

Like, I'm in a weird position

because I don't really like my

tribe all that much.

And I don't have the alliances

out here, but I think it would

be kind of fun to pretend for a

while, like, "We are one big

happy family!

We're in love.

Everything's great."

You know, every time I get a

couple more days out here, it's

that much closer to a merge.

If I can make it that far, it'll

be interesting to see how it

plays out.

[whooping]

Bravo! Bravo!

[wind whistling]

[thunder rumbling]

I have never been so close to

another man.

What is that?

You're solid, right?

Yes, dude.

I'll never vote you out.

I don't perceive him as being

near the player that I am.

We have two immunity idols.

We have the control.

But is he entirely

trustworthy?

[thunder rumbles]

Maybe he's not.

PROBST: On day 13, Coach and

Tyson took advantage of an early

morning walk to make some

long-term plans.

I think that, uh, we get rid of

Erinn 'cause she's a cancer.

Here's the thing.

We can use... we can use Erinn

for a few votes.

She'll stick with us for that

long.

Oh, no. I hate doing that.

I hate doing that, and I don't

trust her.

A lot of people don't want to

talk about who's gonna be

eliminated.

Tyson and I-- we're thinking

about it every day.

Yeah.

I'm gonna tell you this.

I told you from the first day,

I'll never vote you out.

Yeah.

And I'm telling you right

now, man to man, I'll never go

back on that.

Yeah, me, neither.

Like I told you, you're the

most popular guy in this tribe.

You'll be the most popular guy

in this game.

I ruffle people's feathers.

You know, that's just me.

Yeah.

You say the same thing that I

do, and everybody laughs.

I say what you say, and

everybody's, like, "Whoa!

That was wrong."

I mean, I-I just wanted to just

let you know that.

Yeah. I'm the same way.

Okay.

Coach. He's the coach, you know?

Right now I'm mostly agreeing

with what he says.

But in this game, I... don't

perceive him as being near the

player that I am.

♪ ♪

PROBST: While across the

river at Jalapao, J.T. and

Stephen were also discussing the

future of the game.

I-I feel confident that we

could now try to find some

divisions.

There are four of us;

we could find two of them.

I do like having Stephen

around.

I mean, he's just from such a

different part of the world, and

it's hard to imagine we'd ever

been friends otherwise.

But I know we'll always be

friends now.

I think you should lay 'em there

and go down there and check it

out.

J.T. and I have formed a

bond.

I'm excited to be his friend.

He is the likeable Everyman with

the sweet Southern drawl and the

charming smile.

Now, lay down on your belly

right there.

He's showing me how to fish,

how to tie a line.

I think he thinks of me as sort

of his sidekick, but is J.T.

entirely trustworthy?

Maybe he's not.

I mean, you're solid, right?

Yes, dude.

Yeah, okay, me, too.

No doubt.

I'm solid with you.

And then we go to the merge,

then we start looking towards

the final... final three.

Final three. That's it.

And then, if I win, I take

you.

You win, you take me?

We go to final two.

That'd be awesome.

J.T. has definitely emerged

as our tribe leader, and, um, I

hope to put myself into a power

position.

But I'm not the strongest

physical competitor, and so I

need to be with J.T. as much as

possible.

Things are definitely improving

for me in this game, but I know

better than to, you know, say

that with certainty.

PROBST: Later that day,

Brendan chose Stephen to join

him at Exile...

hoping to put in place the final

piece of his Exile alliance with

Sierra and Taj.

Whoa, that's enormous.

That's big, man.

Oh, that's kind of

disgusting, actually.

How tall?

What, three, four feet?

Yeah, and there's some that

fell off down there.

Oh, man.

Here.

It'll be a good boa for you.

A little, uh, a little

decoration?

Oh, thank you.

There you go.

I feel pretty, finally.

When I came out to Exile this

time, um, I wanted Stephen's

trust.

I think Stephen didn't

necessarily believe all this was

going on, didn't know me, didn't

know Sierra, and so I think it's

important that the four of us

trust each other and know that

we're going to the finals

together.

Are you guys solid in your

tribe?

Like, there's no fear of you

getting eliminated?

I don't think so.

I mean, we thought Erinn might

be on the outs.

Yeah.

I needed to be very honest with

him, and so I tried to tell him

as much as could about my tribe,

about how we could work

together, just to make him feel

comfortable with that alliance.

All right, you ready?

Mm-hmm.

Damn, you're quite the woodman.

[thunder rumbling]

Oh, come on, dude.

Who's doing this?

Oh, no!

[laughs]: Are you serious?

[thunder rumbling]

I have never been so close to

another man.

He and I spooned for all we were

worth.

Oh, my God, it was raining.

It was cold.

Nothing could prepare me for

lying huddled against, you know,

a hunk of-of man.

[thunder rumbles]

I'm exhausted. I'm...

Um, the night Steve and I had

out here on Exile was probably

the worst night I've had, and so

we huddled up and spooned all

night and had a great bonding

experience.

Another 20 minutes?

What do we got here?

It's actually coming over the

mountain, a little bit.

Ah, there it is.

Ah, feels good, doesn't it?

Yeah.

And that's the one really cool

thing about Exile: it's just a

bonding experience far greater

than what... than could happen

back at our tribes.

Look how long our shadows are.

Oh, God.

Uh... what kind of shapes

can you make?

[laughs]

What I love about our group

is we have a four-person

alliance: you have myself;

you have Sierra;

you have Taj and Stephen;

and we're all, like,

it's, like, it's kind of a

motley crew.

We have two immunity idols.

We have the control, and, you

know, hopefully, it'll be

smooth sailing from there.

Can you make a... I guess, a

"T"?

A cross, yeah.

"H."

Sort of.

I've just met Brendan.

We've bonded because we have...

we have spooned quite a bit.

And I'm glad right now that I'm

in his alliance.

But there's a lot that's going

on in my tribe right now, and my

priority has to be to make sure

that I get to the merge in a

really strong place.

No more cuddling once we get

back to the merge tribe, yeah.

Much as I would love to.

[laughs]: Yeah.

PROBST: 11 castaways are

left.

Of the first five votes,

three have been blindsides.

What will happen when the

challenges get more intense...

the rewards bigger...

the stakes higher?

You are such a liar!

PROBST: Will friendships and

alliances that formed early

continue through the game?

And what twists await?

[yelling]

PROBST: Join us next time...

as the adventure continues.

[bird screeches]

Stay tuned for scenes from our

next episode.

PROBST: Next time on

Survivor:

Timbira turns on Coach.

We all were frustrated with

Coach.

And the truth shall set you

free!

PROBST: And at Jalapao...

We're going to merge.

We're going to the end.

PROBST: ...the tribe turns on

each other.

It's terrible.

I'm going to hell.

Remember when you kind of...

Yeah.

...when you wouldn't stop?

Yeah, I remember.

When can we do it again?

You'd probably have to give

me, like, ten minutes or

something.

Ten minutes in between?

Yep.

You're a stud.

I know.

I can go all night.

[laughs]
