Survivor (2000) s01e08 Episode Script
Thy Name Is Duplicity
1 JEFF PROBST: 16 Americans, marooned for 39 days in the middle of the South China Sea.
Separated into two tribes-- Tagi and Pagong-- they competed against each other to remain on the island, but now the tribes have merged into one.
Rattana is the name, and it is everyone for themselves.
Every third night, the entire tribe will hike deep into the jungle to take part in the Tribal Council, where they must vote one of their own off the island.
In the end, one will remain and will leave the island with $1 million in cash.
Last week on Survivor: The stakes were raised for the castaways as the two tribes merged into one.
GREG: There was a lot of baggage that we left on that Pagong beach.
JEFF: The members of Pagong were upbeat as they paddled to their new home at Tagi beach.
I'm excited to go to their camp and meet new people.
Rich came out and was, like, "Hey, how are you?" You know, he swam out, which was really nice.
They welcomed us with open arms.
JEFF: But the Tagi alliance was a wolf in sheep's clothing.
I don't need to deal with that.
After Gretch? Jenna.
Jenna.
I was thinking Sean.
JEFF: Rudy wasn't happy with the new Rattana Tribe.
RUDY: All of a sudden, we doubled our population.
Personally, it's a pain in the ass.
JEFF: Greg won the first immunity talisman, ensuring that only he could not be voted off at Tribal Council.
Sean began his alphabet voting strategy and to the surprise of many, it was Gretchen who was ousted.
Oh, my God.
It's me.
JEFF: Nine members of Rattana are left.
Tonight, one more will go.
SEAN: Today is, like, Day 22.
We had a vote last night, which is always pretty beat.
Always puts us in a pretty somber mood.
But last night was a very strange vote.
Last night, it looks like there was a conspiracy, and maybe I'm being paranoid and I didn't want to believe it, but four people from Tagi voted for Gretchen, I think.
SEAN: You know, the bloodbath has begun, you know.
People have started taking it a different way, 'cause there's really no good reason other than strategy to vote Gretchen off.
GREG: Gretchen distinctly disliked this part of the game.
This was her hardest thing was voting people off, and the part that she liked the most was the survival aspect.
GERVASE: I really don't know what happened last night.
At first sight, it looks like they just picked Gretchen off.
SEAN: I think that my former team, Tagi, probably formed an alliance against what they perceived as her as their strongest member of Pagong, which was Gretchen.
It was my idea to get rid of Gretchen because I I thought that she was going to be the next leader.
She had to go because she is bright and, uh, is strong and she was a threat.
SEAN: The, uh, duplicity of the whole thing is pretty bad, because I think that people went out of their way to befriend her, and, uh and those were the people who subsequently voted against her.
GREG: That's the game-- duplicitous, sleaziness-- if you want to play that way.
KELLY: This is a game; don't take it personally.
You know, if people came here to make, you know, bosom buddies and, you know, lifelong friends, they should've gone to summer camp.
GERVASE: I think, really, if it happens again, then you can say for sure there's an alliance, but if it does, I'm more determined than ever to bust that plan up and still kill them all and win, you know.
As far as Pagong, we are now four.
They are now five.
They do have a voting bloc on us whether we see it or not and they can pick us off one by one.
Who needs men? My best strategy is to bond with the women and try to hold on to the women's vote as long as I can.
I'm so excited, guys.
I don't care if you vote me off now 'cause I made it to my cutoff point.
The girls no, there ain't no girls going for a while, you guys.
Thanks, Sue.
That makes me feel better.
SUSAN: The women seem to be getting along well because the women are all workers.
Actually, I like Jenna better than I thought I would.
I thought she would drive me wild and she doesn't, so Don't worry.
The guys' days are numbered.
They are numbered.
Us girls us girls are here for a while, trust me.
Oh, man, I love it.
We'll be up at the end.
I do see the women versus men vote continuing on in Rattana.
As far as my three votes, top-- they're all men.
Oh, God, you guys, look at these crabs.
I see women go out, get the crab traps.
The women fix the hut.
We're carrying the weight of the team.
Maybe that's unfair, but that's how I see it.
Ooh, look at it.
( women screaming ) Get him get him, Sue.
Beat him with the shoe.
( women laughing ) She had me beat the hell out of a crab with a shoe.
SUSAN: As far as the women becoming an alliance, there's a chance that the girls might want to have an alliance after there's a few more guys knocked off.
If they do, I'll just lead on with them like, "Yeah, that's a good idea.
" But as far as the women forming an alliance and making one, no.
It ain't gonna happen.
I already got mine.
I like mine.
KELLY: We're all hungry and we're low on energy, and there's still no one else providing any food except for Rich.
And we're having to ration the rice.
You don't have to put both bowls on right now, Rudy, is what I'm saying.
Don't be stubborn.
RUDY: I ain't stubborn.
I'm going to eat if everybody's going to eat.
Okay, okay.
I ain't above eating.
Having nine people, it's, uh everything gets smaller again.
The rice pot got smaller, the sleeping quarters got smaller.
We got four, five bags So it's four bags there, so we got eight meals there so that's four days.
Or, no, that's only two days.
So, a can's only going to last us two days? We're eating that much.
We have to ration it, then.
So instead of making three pots tonight we should make two pots twice a day.
RUDY: When we go over there to eat, the majority rules.
Yeah, two pots.
SUSAN: I wish some of the other people would start conserving a little more people that are being pigs.
I'll only eat one bowl at a sitting.
I'm planning on staying until the end, so I really want to have something for the last couple of days.
We have our fisherman; it's Rich.
That's Rich's job.
Oh, wow.
Two? Four.
Four? ( laughing ): What a catch.
A ray, a parrot fish, a catfish and a nice little nurse shark.
Baby's gonna have some protein today.
GERVASE: Greg showing up, going out trying to spear a fish.
They've got nothing.
I'm not going to do any better than they will.
And I think Rich is in a great position.
We vote Rich off, we don't eat.
Get the torches going.
Get everything happening.
This is big time, guys.
Rich, Rich, Rich, Rich, Rich! RICHARD: Now, which one of you sons of bitches wrote my name on a card last night? ( laughing ) The bastard didn't get a fish.
Yeah, he's out of here.
I'm starving.
RICHARD: As far as who voted for me at the Tribal Council last night and I'm not certain who it is.
I'm thinking it was probably Greg who felt threatened by me.
But it could have been any of them.
I've only been with them a day or two and I'd not brought in any fish.
Today, on the other hand I brought in a huge catch.
Three rays They just lapped that up.
That one's pretty meaty.
GREG: Let's make them dead so they can stop suffocating.
( loud smack ) Aah! You guys, I mean, there's no other humane way to do that? It seems humane to me.
Right through its brain.
I could eat rice for 17 more days.
I could eat rice the whole time, but they're loving the fish and it seems to make people feel great, and I squeeze every ounce of credit out of it that I can.
Susie-Q, look at that, please.
I know, I said they look beautiful.
Dang, Rich! Those rays look really good.
We're all very proud of you, Richie.
It's the most fish we've had.
Good.
Watch Susie perk up.
She just gets a little protein and she's back in the race.
GREG: Rich is playing a big game.
I think Rich thinks he's very clever.
He has a lot of things going on in his mind that he, uh selectively decides what he will share and with whom.
Fear comes from That's right.
It's useless.
I think religion is what destroys our society.
Whoa! I think it's the reason people treat other people as if they're lower than themselves.
Rich, that's ground-shaking.
RICHARD: I'm not sure how Greg sees me.
I'm trying to figure out whether or not he's trying to build an alliance or pull me in or make me like him in some way.
GREG: It's kind of weird.
It's good and bad.
You should give it a go.
RICHARD: Thank you, buddy.
Don't get that stuff near me with those funny faces.
JENNA: I'm seeing Greg in a more devious way than I've ever seen him before.
Since we moved, I saw him change so much, and so transparently, to me anyway, that I've changed my whole attitude towards Greg.
GREG: This scheme is interesting in that you make friends with people, you make alliances and you have to cut them loose at some point.
JENNA: Greg is working just about everybody in the group.
I think he's always had Colleen wrapped around his little finger.
It's not like that.
I mean, honestly, if there was a girl here who I got along with really, really well, it would be the same thing that way.
I feel like I have a friend and I have somebody who's my equal that I can actually have a conversation with.
Yesterday night I'm voting for you next time.
Fine.
See what happens.
You're voting for me.
GREG: This is the game.
You bring this little kitty along.
You have your little kitten, and you pet your kitten and you enjoy this kitten and the kitten sleeps with you every night and then, you're hungry, man.
You look right in the kitten's eye and snap its neck.
It's nothing personal.
You're hungry.
The kitten has to give its life for the next level.
What is it about your pet cat? My pet kitten? Your pet kitten.
It's you, kitty.
KELLY: I see him as being a chameleon.
Changing his colors to fit whoever he's around.
RICHARD: He's certainly interacted with me in an incredibly interesting way that suggests to me that he's trying something that I'm very, very wary of and that's great.
JENNA: Rich finds Greg attractive, so Rich throws these little innuendoes out there and Greg will just pick right up on them, sit right real close to Rich and he's playing him.
Orgy, Greg? Orgy? Yeah.
Sure.
Have You have? Oh, not right now? He thought it was an offer.
GERVASE: Greg and Rich have joked around a lot.
We were talking one night.
Rich was getting real personal about his business, and Greg was all in it.
You guys have never been with another guy? No.
Greg has.
I mean Rich, seriously? Just kid kid stuff.
That's what freaks me out.
I mean well I mean No, I You GREG: I think, uh, Rich likes to flirt with everybody, and instead of directly shutting him down, I only played his game back.
He's the shy one on tape.
I didn't expect that.
I'll tell you the story later.
RICHARD: He's manipulative.
He's trying to win me over in some way.
He's just not going about it in bright enough a way for me.
I would like to spend more time with him and get to know him, but I would also rather have the million dollars than to have somebody like him around to worry about.
Oh, gee.
What the hell is that? Oh, boy.
Oh, man.
"It takes skill to carve the arc.
"May your aim be true and find its mark.
"Archery is the sport of kings.
A reward from home is what victory brings.
" Oh, my, my.
I'm never going to win anything ( laughing ): around here.
Got a little bit of a clue.
Bows and arrows.
SEAN: You know, if it has anything to do with something from home, I'd like Jenna to win it.
Thank you, Sean.
I hope it's my pictures.
They might have our family send a care package everybody.
They'll just give you the care package KELLY: The reward is going to be something from home and, um, Jenna's thinking it's-it's our pictures that we got to bring, and, like, she really, really She misses her daughters terribly.
Aren't you excited? I love this stuff.
I'm going to go home and be, like "Oh, I got to do bows and arrows.
" SUSAN: Wow.
Okay, Jenna, way over.
Too high.
Is that how you hold it? ( laughing ): Oh.
SUSAN: It's guys against girls, too, 'cause this is very even because these bow and arrows and these arrows are none of them are straight.
Go, Kelly.
Keep your finger over it.
Okay, put the string up.
Now, pull her.
Even if you want to keep it at a angle.
Nice, Rudy.
Who's on the boat? I think it's Jeff.
RICHARD: Bringing news of the competition, I bet.
Oh, hi, Jeff.
It better be something really good.
I'd rather have food than anything from home right now.
I would so much rather have food.
It probably is a refrigerator, but what are we going to refrigerate, our rice? Maybe it's got food already.
It's ice cream sandwiches.
Okay.
( chuckles ) Move the crate.
Perfect.
Oh a TV.
Okay, now, before we begin today's reward challenge, I'm going to show you some short clips of video sent from home.
The winner of the archery contest gets to watch their entire video.
With that I give you this, a little something from home.
Okay, "a little something from home.
" That's cool.
Hi, Dad.
Um, I hope you're doing very well.
That's my kid.
Aw I'm doing pretty well.
Um I hope you come back with the million.
Uh, like I said in my letter, I just I just wish you lots of luck.
Yay.
( laughing ) That's sweet.
RICHARD: Yeah, that's really cool.
It is cool.
Okay.
Hi, Kelly.
Hi.
I hope you're doing good.
You'll probably win, but I miss you anyway.
I'm ready for you to come home.
So, eat your rice, keep smiling and, uh, come home and let's go kayaking.
I'm ready to go.
Peace.
( laughing ) I don't know.
Maybe everybody in the room, anybody who's watching this right now could just join in.
You make mama real proud.
Don't go shaming the family, sleeping with everybody on the island.
Just remember who loves you.
Sis-sis and she's thinking of you.
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
( laughing ) Oh, good, good.
All right.
I'm doing this off the top of my head, so That's my husband holding my dog.
Aw That's my dog.
You are me, I am you and you are me.
Together, we make it through eternity.
Not bad, eh? You know, here's Stimpy.
He's going to come up and give you a big kiss.
Here he comes.
( imitating airplane engine ) ( grunting ) ( laughing ) Oh, my God.
SUSAN: Oh my dog looks so unimpressed.
Missing you? SUSAN: Oh, yeah, she is.
BOTH: Hi, Colleen.
We love you.
SUSAN: Aw COLLEEN: That's my cat.
( laughing ) This is our sign-off now.
Have fun.
MOTHER: Good luck.
That was so cute.
They're really cute.
Hi, Rudy.
I bet you're surprised to see me on the island with you.
45 Years.
Just wanted to let you know how much we missed you.
Look at Grandpa.
Hey, who is that? ( granddaughter gurgling ) And whether you win or not, I'm proud of you for having been selected.
I hope you're enjoying yourself 'cause I know you like the challenge.
Take care.
I love you very much.
JEFF: That's a love letter.
Yeah.
All right.
It was nice.
SEAN: Aw, there's my sister.
Yeah, that's the We call that the blue bomb.
( crash ) WOMAN: You think he'll notice? ALL: We miss you, Sean.
Come home soon but not too soon.
Good luck.
Aw.
That was nice.
Hi, Daddy.
Baby! Oh, look.
Oh, she's beautiful.
Tell Daddy.
Who's the man? Daddy! Oh, she's so cute.
Do it real loud.
Wha-zup! Wha-zup! Say, bye-bye, Daddy.
Bye-bye, Daddy.
Bye-bye, baby.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, that's cute.
Not too bad.
Oh, she's beautiful.
That's my heart and my soul, everything right there.
Mom's beautiful, too.
You shouldn't have shown me that, man.
JEFF: Well, it breaks my heart to say this, Jenna.
Oh, don't tell me.
We never received a tape back.
And I'm really sorry.
Oh, man.
Are we going to do the archery now? JEFF: Well, there is an upside to this that still includes you.
The reward for today's challenge is two parts.
One is a private screening for the full tape.
The winner also gets to make their own video postcard and send it home.
And that one, Jenna, I can guarantee you will get there 'cause I'll put it in the overnight myself tomorrow.
So, one person's going to get the whole kit and caboodle tonight and the others are going to get nothing else.
Okay, so you're going to get one arrow, that's it.
Remember, the one who shoots their arrow closest to the bull's-eye, gets to see their entire video and make one of their own.
You guys comfortable? Nice.
Greg is on the mark.
I'll let you handle this.
The split Yeah, I'm worried about that.
Good try.
Yay.
You hit the board.
Oh, I wanted to see my daughters.
Go, Rudy.
Make it count.
Well, this ain't my bag.
JEFF: Greg's still looking good right now.
Close but no cigar.
Come on, Sue.
You guys JEFF: Tim's waiting to hear.
Waiting to hear from you.
Well not close.
Good luck, Kelly.
Good try.
Great try.
Nice try.
Mom and Dad would love to hear from you, Colleen.
Good velocity.
All right, Gervase, no big deal.
Come on, for your little girl.
The entire Nice try, Gervase.
Nice try.
Okay, Rich.
Let's go, Richie.
Dead-Eye Rich.
Here he goes.
Last shot.
It's up to you.
No.
Congratulations, man.
Wait a minute.
Congratulations, Greg.
Thanks, guys.
JEFF: So Greg is going back up there and watch his tape.
You can include these guys if you want.
You can do whatever you want with it.
Of course.
If it's going to be funny, which I figured it would, I thought other people might get a kick out of it.
At least she could provide entertainment for other people.
Mukaluka, mau-mau, ping-ping.
( clicking tongue ) How are you doing? I miss you very much.
( kissing sounds ) That's right, ping-ping.
RICHARD: I didn't think Greg's tape was unusual.
I expected that and was excited by it.
You could tell she was having fun and knew he would laugh at what she was doing and I was laughing.
I loved it.
Any circumstance you find yourself in, you're not sure what to do-- you're in a quandary; you're in a pickle; you're in a bind; think what Billy Joel would do.
Think about it.
( laughing ) Think, what would Billy Joel do? Anything.
Let's talk about who's probably sleeping on the island right now.
All the giant, scary spiders are sleeping.
That's how mom used to put us to sleep at night.
All the animals are sleeping.
You make Mom proud.
You make Mom real proud.
Just remember who loves you.
Sis-sis.
( kissing sounds ) ( silly grunting ) SEAN: I definitely see Greg differently now after seeing his video and attaching a lit bit of a family with him.
At least we know he's not the only screwball in his family.
Maybe it's a genetic trait over there.
You're on, buddy.
Okay.
Hi, Julie.
I just want to say, you know, it was really special for you to send me and everybody here what you did.
We feel like we could feel you and we felt you.
Some of us felt you and others just imagined what it's like to feel you.
RUDY: I can't understand a guy talking to his sister that way.
It sounded like Greg was talking, maybe, incest.
That's the way it sounded to me.
( laughing ) Why not make allusions? It crosses all those borders.
And, God, what are people going to think? And then, sexual allusions for my sister? What's gonna happen? Julie, we got to put up with this for about two more weeks and, uh, then we might kill him.
Is that doing you a favor? ( laughing ) Good work, Rudy.
Good job, Rudy.
RUDY: Yeah.
JENNA: I can't imagine anybody missing their kids more than I do every night.
Miss my beauties.
Miss Sadie and Sabrina.
I can't imagine my mom not getting the tape out.
It would've done wonders to see that my kids are okay.
To hear their voices.
To hear, "I love you, Mommy.
" RICHARD: Yesterday was cool.
We had that reward challenge with the bow and arrow and the reward was, the, uh videotapes from home, and for me, that was way better than food.
GERVASE: Now, seeing those videos of everybody's family, it's, like, even if you didn't like somebody before, you see that somebody cares and loves this person, so it makes it harder for me to boot somebody off now.
KELLY: I felt so bad for Jenna.
She practiced all morning on that stupid bow and arrow and then it was just, like, "Why bother" for her.
Those are my bruises from the bow and arrow.
This is from the bow and arrow.
GREG: I don't know what her feeling is because now it seems like she wants to leave the island and see her girls.
This is going to make it that much easier when I do get kicked off.
I'm going to probably cry, but you know what? Then I'm going to get off and go "What an adventure!" And then I get to go home to my kids, so GERVASE: Jenna is a threat to me because she has kids and I have kids, so we're, like, single parents, and if people feel for single parents and she's tugging on people's emotions right there and that can sway somebody not to vote for Jenna, and that's a threat for me.
Gervase? I don't see him doing very much.
SUSAN: The fact you have more people here now and we're having to forage for more food and there's a lot more slackers on this other team.
SUSAN: Gervase.
He's a nice guy.
I don't like feed I don't like feeding people like that, though, you know what I mean? Yeah.
That's where I'm That's where I'm coming from now.
GERVASE: My work philosophy is this: Rich is, like, the resident fisherman; Rudy's the cook; Sean is hauling in wood every day-- you know, it seems like everybody has a role here-- and I'm just sitting back relaxing.
Watch me-- I'm going to work that boy till he's gone now.
He bugs me.
GREG: Gervase is honest.
He's not playing anybody else's game.
I've said over and over that he was an example for people thrown out of their element to really succeed and have a great time, which Gervase has.
I got a king.
( laughing ) GERVASE: How have I survived this long? I always said when I came here, I was going to be the entertainer.
The cards man-- I'm glad you brought them.
It adds a new dimension to island life.
GERVASE: I'm not trying to do anything shifty or shady; I'm just being me and people like me because that's who I am.
Gervase is not that charming, trust me.
He's a slacker, so he won't be around long.
Hey.
"Pull me.
" Oh, look at this.
"If you want to win immunity "at the next challenge, just slip onto the right rope and run.
" "Beware of dead ends.
"The prize you seek "is waiting at the end of the line.
" Wow, that sounds hard.
A significant amount of luck with this one.
Oh, you've got to love that.
At least this way, I have a chance.
JEFF: Day 24 on the island.
Since the merger, nothing has been more important than voting strategy.
The gears are churning.
Nobody is safe.
The only way to stay in this game: win today's immunity challenge.
JEFF: Here we are-- immunity time again.
"Into the Line" is a rope course designed to be confusing.
It's a jungle rope maze with five checkpoints along the way.
Your job is to collect the colored carabiners at every checkpoint.
Here's the only hiccup: you have to be attached to the rope course at all times with your carabiner-- you have two of them.
At certain points, you're going to come to a junction-- these trees.
You can't get past them.
Take your other carabiner, reattach then you can un-attach now spin around, maneuver, however you want to do it.
The only thing you have to keep in mind is one of these has to be on at all times.
Also at each checkpoint are several ropes that lead directly to the next checkpoint, but several ropes lead to dead ends.
If you hit a dead end, you've got to backtrack to your last checkpoint and choose a new line.
The first person to reach the end of the course with five carabiners gets immunity.
The tighter, the better? Survivors, ready go! What's happened to us? We're idiots! Oh, dude.
( cheering ) Nice work, man.
Wow! Congratulations.
Give me five! Yank it down.
Very good.
Very good.
Yes! Well earned.
Yes! KELLY: I knew coming here that we'd have to vote people off.
What I didn't bank on was the feelings that you'd have towards these people.
I feel like I feel every Tribal Council only it gets worse every time.
I feel like a backstabber.
I feel like a liar.
God, some people are so nervous, it's sick.
It's sick how nervous some people are.
RUDY: People are all looking around a little more because it's starting to get down to the wire, and evidently, we're the only ones with a plan right now.
Once it's past the next council, we're invincible.
Right now we're not invincible.
The voting now should get very interesting.
If people are fear- and self-preservation motivated, they'll band together.
They'll form alliances.
They'll start beating people out.
Fear-motivated self-preservation is the worst game I can imagine.
KELLY: How do you, you know, stay true to yourself and maintain integrity and still play this game? And you know what? You can't.
Yeah, I think that would look better.
Yeah, tell Rudy that.
RUDY: It's cut and dried that we can eliminate somebody every time, and if we don't, I'll have to break somebody's kneecap or something.
SUSAN: So as long as everybody can keep their mouth shut now.
Kelly's a little freaky.
She's gets a little going.
I'm like, "Just shut up.
Just vote this, and shut up.
" KELLY: I keep telling myself "Well, I have enough friends.
I didn't come here to make friends," and da-da-da.
And the truth is, I like these people.
GERVASE: This is a game.
You're allowed to do this.
This is a game.
Alliances are fair game.
My thing is, we should always have the upper hand.
We should've voted Rudy We should have voted for Rudy at first and then, next vote, vote your conscience.
Always keep the upper hand because if they try something, you can stop it.
SUSAN: As far as there being a counterstrategy from the other side, yeah, there is some fear about that because we haven't got enough of them voted off yet.
COLLEEN: We have the upper hand right now, easy.
We have four people that we could come together have a vote, and get the next person off.
Welcome to Tribal Council number eight.
You guys are now the final core group of nine.
Two of you will make it, survive long enough to get to the final vote.
The other seven of you will return to be the jury that delivers that vote, so no matter who gets voted off, from this point forward, when they get voted off, we'll all be back here in 15 days to determine who leaves with $1 million.
So, Richard, bearing that in mind, how do you balance the ruthlessness required to get to the final two with the likability needed to get the final vote? Good question.
I'm not even exactly sure what my strategy's going to be as to who I'm going to vote for from week to week.
I'm just going to keep getting fish feeding people-- hope they're happy.
How about you, Gervase? You're wearing immunity; tonight you're fine.
Same thing applies to you.
How do you find that balance? Just I'm winging it.
Every day out here, I'm just winging it.
I like everybody here, you know, and after seeing their videos of their families, I can put faces with them now.
I see they have loved ones like I do caring about them, rooting for them, so it makes it a lot harder.
Jenna, how surprised were you last week to see Gretchen get voted off? I was very surprised.
I would've thought she would have made it to the final two, but when we merged, strategies had to shift and it looked like they were getting rid of leaders, so, from here on out, if I get voted off, I'll wear it like a badge of honor when I walk down there.
Susan, straight up, is there an alliance? No, not that I I vote people off that I don't care for, you know, that really would irritate me if I was working with them at a job or something like that.
Here, I got a chance to vote them off.
I can get rid of them.
It's, like, yeah! Kelly, same question.
Do I have to answer? I'm just kidding.
Has your voting strategy changed now or will it change tonight? I vote for who I don't particularly like.
I vote for who I don't want to spend the next 15 days with.
Colleen, would you do whatever it takes to get this money? Would you play sides against each other? No.
Just not important enough? Right.
What brought you here if it's not the money? I mean, I'm here for the money, too.
I mean, give me a break.
Of course.
But the thing is that everybody's here for the money, you know? I'm not going to listen to everybody's sob stories and then weigh them.
That's ridiculous.
Everybody wants the money.
All right.
Gervase? It's time to vote.
My vote is for Jenna.
I think she's really missing her kids now.
She didn't get the videotape.
There's not a letter for her, so, you know, I think it's really hurting her, so this is her ticket.
Keeping with my strategy of alphabetical order, I'm voting for Greg tonight.
It would have been Gervase's turn, but he won immunity, so I had to skip him.
Next person in order is Greg.
I don't think this vote is going to mean very much.
First time for paranoia, second time for irritation and third time because my ear infection is clearing up.
Good night, sweetheart, yeah, it's time to go.
No more competition.
Talk to you later, Greg.
Bye-bye.
As always I'd like to remind you that once the votes are tallied, the decision is final and the person will be asked to leave the island immediately.
I'll read the votes.
"Jenna.
" "Jenna.
" "Jenna.
" "Greg.
" "Greg.
" "Greg.
" Three votes for Greg, three votes for Jenna.
"Greg.
" "Greg.
" No! ( mock sobbing ) JEFF: Take care, Greg.
That's all I need.
Bye, everyone.
Greg, the tribe has spoken.
It's time for you to go.
Bye, everybody.
( sobbing ) ( laughter ) RUDY: I believed him for a minute.
RICHARD: You believed him, Rudy? For a minute there.
When the tears fell.
Look at the tears back there.
That's it for tonight's Tribal Council.
I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Good night.
Next week on Survivor: I'm just being honest.
If you can't take the honesty Cracks begin to appear in the alliance.
I'm hoping that Kelly hasn't joined forces with somebody else.
Someone will win a letter in the reward challenge.
Will Jenna finally hear from her children? JENNA: I want the letter from home.
I haven't seen or heard anything from my kids.
A twist of fate that maybe some didn't expect and some well some did.
An excellent game, well manufactured.
I harbor no resentment for any of you who voted for me, against me or otherwise.
I feel like it's probably a pretty darn good time.
Thanks, guys.
Separated into two tribes-- Tagi and Pagong-- they competed against each other to remain on the island, but now the tribes have merged into one.
Rattana is the name, and it is everyone for themselves.
Every third night, the entire tribe will hike deep into the jungle to take part in the Tribal Council, where they must vote one of their own off the island.
In the end, one will remain and will leave the island with $1 million in cash.
Last week on Survivor: The stakes were raised for the castaways as the two tribes merged into one.
GREG: There was a lot of baggage that we left on that Pagong beach.
JEFF: The members of Pagong were upbeat as they paddled to their new home at Tagi beach.
I'm excited to go to their camp and meet new people.
Rich came out and was, like, "Hey, how are you?" You know, he swam out, which was really nice.
They welcomed us with open arms.
JEFF: But the Tagi alliance was a wolf in sheep's clothing.
I don't need to deal with that.
After Gretch? Jenna.
Jenna.
I was thinking Sean.
JEFF: Rudy wasn't happy with the new Rattana Tribe.
RUDY: All of a sudden, we doubled our population.
Personally, it's a pain in the ass.
JEFF: Greg won the first immunity talisman, ensuring that only he could not be voted off at Tribal Council.
Sean began his alphabet voting strategy and to the surprise of many, it was Gretchen who was ousted.
Oh, my God.
It's me.
JEFF: Nine members of Rattana are left.
Tonight, one more will go.
SEAN: Today is, like, Day 22.
We had a vote last night, which is always pretty beat.
Always puts us in a pretty somber mood.
But last night was a very strange vote.
Last night, it looks like there was a conspiracy, and maybe I'm being paranoid and I didn't want to believe it, but four people from Tagi voted for Gretchen, I think.
SEAN: You know, the bloodbath has begun, you know.
People have started taking it a different way, 'cause there's really no good reason other than strategy to vote Gretchen off.
GREG: Gretchen distinctly disliked this part of the game.
This was her hardest thing was voting people off, and the part that she liked the most was the survival aspect.
GERVASE: I really don't know what happened last night.
At first sight, it looks like they just picked Gretchen off.
SEAN: I think that my former team, Tagi, probably formed an alliance against what they perceived as her as their strongest member of Pagong, which was Gretchen.
It was my idea to get rid of Gretchen because I I thought that she was going to be the next leader.
She had to go because she is bright and, uh, is strong and she was a threat.
SEAN: The, uh, duplicity of the whole thing is pretty bad, because I think that people went out of their way to befriend her, and, uh and those were the people who subsequently voted against her.
GREG: That's the game-- duplicitous, sleaziness-- if you want to play that way.
KELLY: This is a game; don't take it personally.
You know, if people came here to make, you know, bosom buddies and, you know, lifelong friends, they should've gone to summer camp.
GERVASE: I think, really, if it happens again, then you can say for sure there's an alliance, but if it does, I'm more determined than ever to bust that plan up and still kill them all and win, you know.
As far as Pagong, we are now four.
They are now five.
They do have a voting bloc on us whether we see it or not and they can pick us off one by one.
Who needs men? My best strategy is to bond with the women and try to hold on to the women's vote as long as I can.
I'm so excited, guys.
I don't care if you vote me off now 'cause I made it to my cutoff point.
The girls no, there ain't no girls going for a while, you guys.
Thanks, Sue.
That makes me feel better.
SUSAN: The women seem to be getting along well because the women are all workers.
Actually, I like Jenna better than I thought I would.
I thought she would drive me wild and she doesn't, so Don't worry.
The guys' days are numbered.
They are numbered.
Us girls us girls are here for a while, trust me.
Oh, man, I love it.
We'll be up at the end.
I do see the women versus men vote continuing on in Rattana.
As far as my three votes, top-- they're all men.
Oh, God, you guys, look at these crabs.
I see women go out, get the crab traps.
The women fix the hut.
We're carrying the weight of the team.
Maybe that's unfair, but that's how I see it.
Ooh, look at it.
( women screaming ) Get him get him, Sue.
Beat him with the shoe.
( women laughing ) She had me beat the hell out of a crab with a shoe.
SUSAN: As far as the women becoming an alliance, there's a chance that the girls might want to have an alliance after there's a few more guys knocked off.
If they do, I'll just lead on with them like, "Yeah, that's a good idea.
" But as far as the women forming an alliance and making one, no.
It ain't gonna happen.
I already got mine.
I like mine.
KELLY: We're all hungry and we're low on energy, and there's still no one else providing any food except for Rich.
And we're having to ration the rice.
You don't have to put both bowls on right now, Rudy, is what I'm saying.
Don't be stubborn.
RUDY: I ain't stubborn.
I'm going to eat if everybody's going to eat.
Okay, okay.
I ain't above eating.
Having nine people, it's, uh everything gets smaller again.
The rice pot got smaller, the sleeping quarters got smaller.
We got four, five bags So it's four bags there, so we got eight meals there so that's four days.
Or, no, that's only two days.
So, a can's only going to last us two days? We're eating that much.
We have to ration it, then.
So instead of making three pots tonight we should make two pots twice a day.
RUDY: When we go over there to eat, the majority rules.
Yeah, two pots.
SUSAN: I wish some of the other people would start conserving a little more people that are being pigs.
I'll only eat one bowl at a sitting.
I'm planning on staying until the end, so I really want to have something for the last couple of days.
We have our fisherman; it's Rich.
That's Rich's job.
Oh, wow.
Two? Four.
Four? ( laughing ): What a catch.
A ray, a parrot fish, a catfish and a nice little nurse shark.
Baby's gonna have some protein today.
GERVASE: Greg showing up, going out trying to spear a fish.
They've got nothing.
I'm not going to do any better than they will.
And I think Rich is in a great position.
We vote Rich off, we don't eat.
Get the torches going.
Get everything happening.
This is big time, guys.
Rich, Rich, Rich, Rich, Rich! RICHARD: Now, which one of you sons of bitches wrote my name on a card last night? ( laughing ) The bastard didn't get a fish.
Yeah, he's out of here.
I'm starving.
RICHARD: As far as who voted for me at the Tribal Council last night and I'm not certain who it is.
I'm thinking it was probably Greg who felt threatened by me.
But it could have been any of them.
I've only been with them a day or two and I'd not brought in any fish.
Today, on the other hand I brought in a huge catch.
Three rays They just lapped that up.
That one's pretty meaty.
GREG: Let's make them dead so they can stop suffocating.
( loud smack ) Aah! You guys, I mean, there's no other humane way to do that? It seems humane to me.
Right through its brain.
I could eat rice for 17 more days.
I could eat rice the whole time, but they're loving the fish and it seems to make people feel great, and I squeeze every ounce of credit out of it that I can.
Susie-Q, look at that, please.
I know, I said they look beautiful.
Dang, Rich! Those rays look really good.
We're all very proud of you, Richie.
It's the most fish we've had.
Good.
Watch Susie perk up.
She just gets a little protein and she's back in the race.
GREG: Rich is playing a big game.
I think Rich thinks he's very clever.
He has a lot of things going on in his mind that he, uh selectively decides what he will share and with whom.
Fear comes from That's right.
It's useless.
I think religion is what destroys our society.
Whoa! I think it's the reason people treat other people as if they're lower than themselves.
Rich, that's ground-shaking.
RICHARD: I'm not sure how Greg sees me.
I'm trying to figure out whether or not he's trying to build an alliance or pull me in or make me like him in some way.
GREG: It's kind of weird.
It's good and bad.
You should give it a go.
RICHARD: Thank you, buddy.
Don't get that stuff near me with those funny faces.
JENNA: I'm seeing Greg in a more devious way than I've ever seen him before.
Since we moved, I saw him change so much, and so transparently, to me anyway, that I've changed my whole attitude towards Greg.
GREG: This scheme is interesting in that you make friends with people, you make alliances and you have to cut them loose at some point.
JENNA: Greg is working just about everybody in the group.
I think he's always had Colleen wrapped around his little finger.
It's not like that.
I mean, honestly, if there was a girl here who I got along with really, really well, it would be the same thing that way.
I feel like I have a friend and I have somebody who's my equal that I can actually have a conversation with.
Yesterday night I'm voting for you next time.
Fine.
See what happens.
You're voting for me.
GREG: This is the game.
You bring this little kitty along.
You have your little kitten, and you pet your kitten and you enjoy this kitten and the kitten sleeps with you every night and then, you're hungry, man.
You look right in the kitten's eye and snap its neck.
It's nothing personal.
You're hungry.
The kitten has to give its life for the next level.
What is it about your pet cat? My pet kitten? Your pet kitten.
It's you, kitty.
KELLY: I see him as being a chameleon.
Changing his colors to fit whoever he's around.
RICHARD: He's certainly interacted with me in an incredibly interesting way that suggests to me that he's trying something that I'm very, very wary of and that's great.
JENNA: Rich finds Greg attractive, so Rich throws these little innuendoes out there and Greg will just pick right up on them, sit right real close to Rich and he's playing him.
Orgy, Greg? Orgy? Yeah.
Sure.
Have You have? Oh, not right now? He thought it was an offer.
GERVASE: Greg and Rich have joked around a lot.
We were talking one night.
Rich was getting real personal about his business, and Greg was all in it.
You guys have never been with another guy? No.
Greg has.
I mean Rich, seriously? Just kid kid stuff.
That's what freaks me out.
I mean well I mean No, I You GREG: I think, uh, Rich likes to flirt with everybody, and instead of directly shutting him down, I only played his game back.
He's the shy one on tape.
I didn't expect that.
I'll tell you the story later.
RICHARD: He's manipulative.
He's trying to win me over in some way.
He's just not going about it in bright enough a way for me.
I would like to spend more time with him and get to know him, but I would also rather have the million dollars than to have somebody like him around to worry about.
Oh, gee.
What the hell is that? Oh, boy.
Oh, man.
"It takes skill to carve the arc.
"May your aim be true and find its mark.
"Archery is the sport of kings.
A reward from home is what victory brings.
" Oh, my, my.
I'm never going to win anything ( laughing ): around here.
Got a little bit of a clue.
Bows and arrows.
SEAN: You know, if it has anything to do with something from home, I'd like Jenna to win it.
Thank you, Sean.
I hope it's my pictures.
They might have our family send a care package everybody.
They'll just give you the care package KELLY: The reward is going to be something from home and, um, Jenna's thinking it's-it's our pictures that we got to bring, and, like, she really, really She misses her daughters terribly.
Aren't you excited? I love this stuff.
I'm going to go home and be, like "Oh, I got to do bows and arrows.
" SUSAN: Wow.
Okay, Jenna, way over.
Too high.
Is that how you hold it? ( laughing ): Oh.
SUSAN: It's guys against girls, too, 'cause this is very even because these bow and arrows and these arrows are none of them are straight.
Go, Kelly.
Keep your finger over it.
Okay, put the string up.
Now, pull her.
Even if you want to keep it at a angle.
Nice, Rudy.
Who's on the boat? I think it's Jeff.
RICHARD: Bringing news of the competition, I bet.
Oh, hi, Jeff.
It better be something really good.
I'd rather have food than anything from home right now.
I would so much rather have food.
It probably is a refrigerator, but what are we going to refrigerate, our rice? Maybe it's got food already.
It's ice cream sandwiches.
Okay.
( chuckles ) Move the crate.
Perfect.
Oh a TV.
Okay, now, before we begin today's reward challenge, I'm going to show you some short clips of video sent from home.
The winner of the archery contest gets to watch their entire video.
With that I give you this, a little something from home.
Okay, "a little something from home.
" That's cool.
Hi, Dad.
Um, I hope you're doing very well.
That's my kid.
Aw I'm doing pretty well.
Um I hope you come back with the million.
Uh, like I said in my letter, I just I just wish you lots of luck.
Yay.
( laughing ) That's sweet.
RICHARD: Yeah, that's really cool.
It is cool.
Okay.
Hi, Kelly.
Hi.
I hope you're doing good.
You'll probably win, but I miss you anyway.
I'm ready for you to come home.
So, eat your rice, keep smiling and, uh, come home and let's go kayaking.
I'm ready to go.
Peace.
( laughing ) I don't know.
Maybe everybody in the room, anybody who's watching this right now could just join in.
You make mama real proud.
Don't go shaming the family, sleeping with everybody on the island.
Just remember who loves you.
Sis-sis and she's thinking of you.
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
( laughing ) Oh, good, good.
All right.
I'm doing this off the top of my head, so That's my husband holding my dog.
Aw That's my dog.
You are me, I am you and you are me.
Together, we make it through eternity.
Not bad, eh? You know, here's Stimpy.
He's going to come up and give you a big kiss.
Here he comes.
( imitating airplane engine ) ( grunting ) ( laughing ) Oh, my God.
SUSAN: Oh my dog looks so unimpressed.
Missing you? SUSAN: Oh, yeah, she is.
BOTH: Hi, Colleen.
We love you.
SUSAN: Aw COLLEEN: That's my cat.
( laughing ) This is our sign-off now.
Have fun.
MOTHER: Good luck.
That was so cute.
They're really cute.
Hi, Rudy.
I bet you're surprised to see me on the island with you.
45 Years.
Just wanted to let you know how much we missed you.
Look at Grandpa.
Hey, who is that? ( granddaughter gurgling ) And whether you win or not, I'm proud of you for having been selected.
I hope you're enjoying yourself 'cause I know you like the challenge.
Take care.
I love you very much.
JEFF: That's a love letter.
Yeah.
All right.
It was nice.
SEAN: Aw, there's my sister.
Yeah, that's the We call that the blue bomb.
( crash ) WOMAN: You think he'll notice? ALL: We miss you, Sean.
Come home soon but not too soon.
Good luck.
Aw.
That was nice.
Hi, Daddy.
Baby! Oh, look.
Oh, she's beautiful.
Tell Daddy.
Who's the man? Daddy! Oh, she's so cute.
Do it real loud.
Wha-zup! Wha-zup! Say, bye-bye, Daddy.
Bye-bye, Daddy.
Bye-bye, baby.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, that's cute.
Not too bad.
Oh, she's beautiful.
That's my heart and my soul, everything right there.
Mom's beautiful, too.
You shouldn't have shown me that, man.
JEFF: Well, it breaks my heart to say this, Jenna.
Oh, don't tell me.
We never received a tape back.
And I'm really sorry.
Oh, man.
Are we going to do the archery now? JEFF: Well, there is an upside to this that still includes you.
The reward for today's challenge is two parts.
One is a private screening for the full tape.
The winner also gets to make their own video postcard and send it home.
And that one, Jenna, I can guarantee you will get there 'cause I'll put it in the overnight myself tomorrow.
So, one person's going to get the whole kit and caboodle tonight and the others are going to get nothing else.
Okay, so you're going to get one arrow, that's it.
Remember, the one who shoots their arrow closest to the bull's-eye, gets to see their entire video and make one of their own.
You guys comfortable? Nice.
Greg is on the mark.
I'll let you handle this.
The split Yeah, I'm worried about that.
Good try.
Yay.
You hit the board.
Oh, I wanted to see my daughters.
Go, Rudy.
Make it count.
Well, this ain't my bag.
JEFF: Greg's still looking good right now.
Close but no cigar.
Come on, Sue.
You guys JEFF: Tim's waiting to hear.
Waiting to hear from you.
Well not close.
Good luck, Kelly.
Good try.
Great try.
Nice try.
Mom and Dad would love to hear from you, Colleen.
Good velocity.
All right, Gervase, no big deal.
Come on, for your little girl.
The entire Nice try, Gervase.
Nice try.
Okay, Rich.
Let's go, Richie.
Dead-Eye Rich.
Here he goes.
Last shot.
It's up to you.
No.
Congratulations, man.
Wait a minute.
Congratulations, Greg.
Thanks, guys.
JEFF: So Greg is going back up there and watch his tape.
You can include these guys if you want.
You can do whatever you want with it.
Of course.
If it's going to be funny, which I figured it would, I thought other people might get a kick out of it.
At least she could provide entertainment for other people.
Mukaluka, mau-mau, ping-ping.
( clicking tongue ) How are you doing? I miss you very much.
( kissing sounds ) That's right, ping-ping.
RICHARD: I didn't think Greg's tape was unusual.
I expected that and was excited by it.
You could tell she was having fun and knew he would laugh at what she was doing and I was laughing.
I loved it.
Any circumstance you find yourself in, you're not sure what to do-- you're in a quandary; you're in a pickle; you're in a bind; think what Billy Joel would do.
Think about it.
( laughing ) Think, what would Billy Joel do? Anything.
Let's talk about who's probably sleeping on the island right now.
All the giant, scary spiders are sleeping.
That's how mom used to put us to sleep at night.
All the animals are sleeping.
You make Mom proud.
You make Mom real proud.
Just remember who loves you.
Sis-sis.
( kissing sounds ) ( silly grunting ) SEAN: I definitely see Greg differently now after seeing his video and attaching a lit bit of a family with him.
At least we know he's not the only screwball in his family.
Maybe it's a genetic trait over there.
You're on, buddy.
Okay.
Hi, Julie.
I just want to say, you know, it was really special for you to send me and everybody here what you did.
We feel like we could feel you and we felt you.
Some of us felt you and others just imagined what it's like to feel you.
RUDY: I can't understand a guy talking to his sister that way.
It sounded like Greg was talking, maybe, incest.
That's the way it sounded to me.
( laughing ) Why not make allusions? It crosses all those borders.
And, God, what are people going to think? And then, sexual allusions for my sister? What's gonna happen? Julie, we got to put up with this for about two more weeks and, uh, then we might kill him.
Is that doing you a favor? ( laughing ) Good work, Rudy.
Good job, Rudy.
RUDY: Yeah.
JENNA: I can't imagine anybody missing their kids more than I do every night.
Miss my beauties.
Miss Sadie and Sabrina.
I can't imagine my mom not getting the tape out.
It would've done wonders to see that my kids are okay.
To hear their voices.
To hear, "I love you, Mommy.
" RICHARD: Yesterday was cool.
We had that reward challenge with the bow and arrow and the reward was, the, uh videotapes from home, and for me, that was way better than food.
GERVASE: Now, seeing those videos of everybody's family, it's, like, even if you didn't like somebody before, you see that somebody cares and loves this person, so it makes it harder for me to boot somebody off now.
KELLY: I felt so bad for Jenna.
She practiced all morning on that stupid bow and arrow and then it was just, like, "Why bother" for her.
Those are my bruises from the bow and arrow.
This is from the bow and arrow.
GREG: I don't know what her feeling is because now it seems like she wants to leave the island and see her girls.
This is going to make it that much easier when I do get kicked off.
I'm going to probably cry, but you know what? Then I'm going to get off and go "What an adventure!" And then I get to go home to my kids, so GERVASE: Jenna is a threat to me because she has kids and I have kids, so we're, like, single parents, and if people feel for single parents and she's tugging on people's emotions right there and that can sway somebody not to vote for Jenna, and that's a threat for me.
Gervase? I don't see him doing very much.
SUSAN: The fact you have more people here now and we're having to forage for more food and there's a lot more slackers on this other team.
SUSAN: Gervase.
He's a nice guy.
I don't like feed I don't like feeding people like that, though, you know what I mean? Yeah.
That's where I'm That's where I'm coming from now.
GERVASE: My work philosophy is this: Rich is, like, the resident fisherman; Rudy's the cook; Sean is hauling in wood every day-- you know, it seems like everybody has a role here-- and I'm just sitting back relaxing.
Watch me-- I'm going to work that boy till he's gone now.
He bugs me.
GREG: Gervase is honest.
He's not playing anybody else's game.
I've said over and over that he was an example for people thrown out of their element to really succeed and have a great time, which Gervase has.
I got a king.
( laughing ) GERVASE: How have I survived this long? I always said when I came here, I was going to be the entertainer.
The cards man-- I'm glad you brought them.
It adds a new dimension to island life.
GERVASE: I'm not trying to do anything shifty or shady; I'm just being me and people like me because that's who I am.
Gervase is not that charming, trust me.
He's a slacker, so he won't be around long.
Hey.
"Pull me.
" Oh, look at this.
"If you want to win immunity "at the next challenge, just slip onto the right rope and run.
" "Beware of dead ends.
"The prize you seek "is waiting at the end of the line.
" Wow, that sounds hard.
A significant amount of luck with this one.
Oh, you've got to love that.
At least this way, I have a chance.
JEFF: Day 24 on the island.
Since the merger, nothing has been more important than voting strategy.
The gears are churning.
Nobody is safe.
The only way to stay in this game: win today's immunity challenge.
JEFF: Here we are-- immunity time again.
"Into the Line" is a rope course designed to be confusing.
It's a jungle rope maze with five checkpoints along the way.
Your job is to collect the colored carabiners at every checkpoint.
Here's the only hiccup: you have to be attached to the rope course at all times with your carabiner-- you have two of them.
At certain points, you're going to come to a junction-- these trees.
You can't get past them.
Take your other carabiner, reattach then you can un-attach now spin around, maneuver, however you want to do it.
The only thing you have to keep in mind is one of these has to be on at all times.
Also at each checkpoint are several ropes that lead directly to the next checkpoint, but several ropes lead to dead ends.
If you hit a dead end, you've got to backtrack to your last checkpoint and choose a new line.
The first person to reach the end of the course with five carabiners gets immunity.
The tighter, the better? Survivors, ready go! What's happened to us? We're idiots! Oh, dude.
( cheering ) Nice work, man.
Wow! Congratulations.
Give me five! Yank it down.
Very good.
Very good.
Yes! Well earned.
Yes! KELLY: I knew coming here that we'd have to vote people off.
What I didn't bank on was the feelings that you'd have towards these people.
I feel like I feel every Tribal Council only it gets worse every time.
I feel like a backstabber.
I feel like a liar.
God, some people are so nervous, it's sick.
It's sick how nervous some people are.
RUDY: People are all looking around a little more because it's starting to get down to the wire, and evidently, we're the only ones with a plan right now.
Once it's past the next council, we're invincible.
Right now we're not invincible.
The voting now should get very interesting.
If people are fear- and self-preservation motivated, they'll band together.
They'll form alliances.
They'll start beating people out.
Fear-motivated self-preservation is the worst game I can imagine.
KELLY: How do you, you know, stay true to yourself and maintain integrity and still play this game? And you know what? You can't.
Yeah, I think that would look better.
Yeah, tell Rudy that.
RUDY: It's cut and dried that we can eliminate somebody every time, and if we don't, I'll have to break somebody's kneecap or something.
SUSAN: So as long as everybody can keep their mouth shut now.
Kelly's a little freaky.
She's gets a little going.
I'm like, "Just shut up.
Just vote this, and shut up.
" KELLY: I keep telling myself "Well, I have enough friends.
I didn't come here to make friends," and da-da-da.
And the truth is, I like these people.
GERVASE: This is a game.
You're allowed to do this.
This is a game.
Alliances are fair game.
My thing is, we should always have the upper hand.
We should've voted Rudy We should have voted for Rudy at first and then, next vote, vote your conscience.
Always keep the upper hand because if they try something, you can stop it.
SUSAN: As far as there being a counterstrategy from the other side, yeah, there is some fear about that because we haven't got enough of them voted off yet.
COLLEEN: We have the upper hand right now, easy.
We have four people that we could come together have a vote, and get the next person off.
Welcome to Tribal Council number eight.
You guys are now the final core group of nine.
Two of you will make it, survive long enough to get to the final vote.
The other seven of you will return to be the jury that delivers that vote, so no matter who gets voted off, from this point forward, when they get voted off, we'll all be back here in 15 days to determine who leaves with $1 million.
So, Richard, bearing that in mind, how do you balance the ruthlessness required to get to the final two with the likability needed to get the final vote? Good question.
I'm not even exactly sure what my strategy's going to be as to who I'm going to vote for from week to week.
I'm just going to keep getting fish feeding people-- hope they're happy.
How about you, Gervase? You're wearing immunity; tonight you're fine.
Same thing applies to you.
How do you find that balance? Just I'm winging it.
Every day out here, I'm just winging it.
I like everybody here, you know, and after seeing their videos of their families, I can put faces with them now.
I see they have loved ones like I do caring about them, rooting for them, so it makes it a lot harder.
Jenna, how surprised were you last week to see Gretchen get voted off? I was very surprised.
I would've thought she would have made it to the final two, but when we merged, strategies had to shift and it looked like they were getting rid of leaders, so, from here on out, if I get voted off, I'll wear it like a badge of honor when I walk down there.
Susan, straight up, is there an alliance? No, not that I I vote people off that I don't care for, you know, that really would irritate me if I was working with them at a job or something like that.
Here, I got a chance to vote them off.
I can get rid of them.
It's, like, yeah! Kelly, same question.
Do I have to answer? I'm just kidding.
Has your voting strategy changed now or will it change tonight? I vote for who I don't particularly like.
I vote for who I don't want to spend the next 15 days with.
Colleen, would you do whatever it takes to get this money? Would you play sides against each other? No.
Just not important enough? Right.
What brought you here if it's not the money? I mean, I'm here for the money, too.
I mean, give me a break.
Of course.
But the thing is that everybody's here for the money, you know? I'm not going to listen to everybody's sob stories and then weigh them.
That's ridiculous.
Everybody wants the money.
All right.
Gervase? It's time to vote.
My vote is for Jenna.
I think she's really missing her kids now.
She didn't get the videotape.
There's not a letter for her, so, you know, I think it's really hurting her, so this is her ticket.
Keeping with my strategy of alphabetical order, I'm voting for Greg tonight.
It would have been Gervase's turn, but he won immunity, so I had to skip him.
Next person in order is Greg.
I don't think this vote is going to mean very much.
First time for paranoia, second time for irritation and third time because my ear infection is clearing up.
Good night, sweetheart, yeah, it's time to go.
No more competition.
Talk to you later, Greg.
Bye-bye.
As always I'd like to remind you that once the votes are tallied, the decision is final and the person will be asked to leave the island immediately.
I'll read the votes.
"Jenna.
" "Jenna.
" "Jenna.
" "Greg.
" "Greg.
" "Greg.
" Three votes for Greg, three votes for Jenna.
"Greg.
" "Greg.
" No! ( mock sobbing ) JEFF: Take care, Greg.
That's all I need.
Bye, everyone.
Greg, the tribe has spoken.
It's time for you to go.
Bye, everybody.
( sobbing ) ( laughter ) RUDY: I believed him for a minute.
RICHARD: You believed him, Rudy? For a minute there.
When the tears fell.
Look at the tears back there.
That's it for tonight's Tribal Council.
I'll see you guys tomorrow.
Good night.
Next week on Survivor: I'm just being honest.
If you can't take the honesty Cracks begin to appear in the alliance.
I'm hoping that Kelly hasn't joined forces with somebody else.
Someone will win a letter in the reward challenge.
Will Jenna finally hear from her children? JENNA: I want the letter from home.
I haven't seen or heard anything from my kids.
A twist of fate that maybe some didn't expect and some well some did.
An excellent game, well manufactured.
I harbor no resentment for any of you who voted for me, against me or otherwise.
I feel like it's probably a pretty darn good time.
Thanks, guys.
