Previously on Australian Survivor...
Jac, bring it home.
..Jackie proved her worth to the Champions.
Jackie wins immunity for the Champions,
sending the Contenders to tribal council.
"The idol you seek is closer than you know."
Heath struck gold,
while Tegan led the charge to get rid of Zach.
Strategically, we don't need three strong boys.
No.
- We're all going to vote Zach? - Yep.
But Benji had other plans.
It's critical for me to get the girls to turn on Tegan,
even if it comes to lying to them.
I'm taking the throne. I'm going to rule this tribe.
At Tribal Council, a shock announcement unsettled everyone.
You will be voting to send someone...
..to Exile Beach.
And that person will be joined at Exile
by whoever is voted out at the next Tribal Council.
That's intense, man.
But Benji's blindside...
Tegan.
..worked to perfection.
First person going to Exile Beach,
Tegan.
18 are left.
Who will be joining Tegan at Exile Beach tonight?
You can't even describe what it feels like.
It's lonely.
There's no-one to talk to. Your mind goes mad.
I didn't want to come here!
I don't want to be here.
I don't know what's in store for me.
I'm a bit of a fighter.
I don't like losing.
All I need to focus on is what I need to do next
to be able to stay here, because...
..I haven't gone the last three weeks without seeing my kids
to roll over and go home.
I'm not giving up.
I'm here to win. I'm going to fight.
When I get back to camp, I want revenge.
I'm going to get back in this game.
- Saved him! Saved him! - Aagh!
He was washing his hair.
Oh, OK. Sorry about that.
Mouth to mouth!
- Agh! - Mmm!
It's starting to feel a little bit like Groundhog Day here
and I'm loving this island experience.
Whoo-hoo!
So far I feel like I'm positioned well in the game.
- Good. - Well done.
Good job.
Feel like I'm needed and I'm an asset
and contributing as much as I can.
- Hey, good! - He's a good size.
- Those crabs work, eh? - Yep.
I get along really great with the guys, particularly Mat and Steve.
I'm a cuddler and my son, Max, he doesn't...
He won't let me kiss him anymore.
He just refuses to let me kiss him, but he'll give me a little cuddle
but when he cuddles me he goes like this.
He doesn't want me to... He won't hug me.
- He just goes... - Oh, yeah. He just...
I'm doing OK, you know?
I've kind of acclimatised to this place we call home
and settled in for the long haul.
I want you to singe off my cheek hairs with some... with some flame.
- You reckon you can do it? - Nuh.
Yeah, you can. You just do it.
My wife, Chloe, would be not interested in touching me
with a 10-foot barge pole right now, so...
Oh, here we go. Here we go.
Don't, Mat.
Oh, ow, ow, Mat.
You can't hold it on there.
I'm trying... You keep moving away.
Oh, wow.
You know, so grateful to have a good group of people that I can trust.
Got my back. I love it.
They're such a good group.
It is me you asked to do this... Oh! Shit, that's a big flame.
You're gonna burn my eyelashes.
- Oh, yeah, wow. - Wow.
That's pretty good. You can do my eyebrows.
- Except the whole things would go up. - I wouldn't trust Steve with it.
Let's play that game.
I know last night was obviously shit
but I'm just saying it wasn't all my call.
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
I mean, let's just try to focus on winning this next challenge.
Yeah.
Because it's the only way we can guarantee that we'll stay here,
100%.
Tribal Council last night was a bit of a shock.
Tegan's obviously my closest ally, and I sent her to Exile Beach.
I'm definitely pissed off.
You know, if we go to next Tribal Council
and you're thinking of sending me to Exile,
there's a 50% chance that I might...
..I might not come back, right?
That's the end of my game.
I never said I was sending you to Exile.
Like, I don't want to send you home.
If you don't want to send me home, then don't send me to Exile.
Well, then, alright. Let's win this challenge.
And what if we don't?
Well, I don't want to send you to Exile, man. I don't.
So you wouldn't be voting for me if we lose this next challenge?
I'm not going to say yes or no, Heath.
I'm being honest with you, man.
No, I want to be honest with you.
I definitely feel like I'm in trouble at the moment.
I don't trust anyone in this game.
I don't trust anyone in this tribe right now.
But I need to think about...
..if you and Tegan were playing the game against all of us,
and if you have you word...
Anyway...
Yeah, it's kind of silly.
- Oh, God, yeah. - Yeah.
So, last night was fun.
I told Zach Tegan was coming after him.
I told Robbie Tegan was coming after him.
Paige had nowhere else to go.
I convinced Shonee to convince the two other girls
and we had seven strong and got rid of Tegan thanks to me.
100%. Yes. I'm very much...
Is that what we're going now with?
- Yeah. - 100%.
It'd be stupid to do anything else.
If we lose next immunity challenge,
we're definitely writing down King Heath's name
and he's just going to complete the pair
and they're going to go to Exile and have to battle each other.
I'm going to break up the power couple in this game
once and for all.
You're seeing the rise of a new power.
No-one assumes that I'm just heading towards that throne.
I'm going to rule this kingdom.
I'm not going to go off to Exile and go up against Tegan.
Like, absolutely no way.
I promised her since day two that we had an alliance
and I'd help her get to the end
and I'm going to stay true to my word.
Exile Island.
I have an idol.
I'm going to send someone else to Exile Beach, bring Tegan back.
I'm out for revenge.
And before you know it, there's going to be another blindside
on someone that's least expecting.
Running track.
Come on in, guys.
Who's gone?
The little girl.
Champions getting the first look at the new Contenders tribe.
- Tegan went. - Yeah. Didn't expect that one.
Wow.
Champions, just to catch you up,
Tegan was voted out of the Contenders last night
but not out of the game.
Last night, she was sent to Exile Beach.
Whoa.
And she's going to be joined at Exile
by whoever is voted out at the next Tribal Council,
whether it's someone from your tribe or the Contenders.
And whoever that is,
they're going to face off against Tegan in a one-on-one challenge.
The winner will come back into the game...
- Whoa! - Full on.
..the loser goes home.
Second chance.
Interesting!
Alright, you guys ready to get to today's reward challenge?
Yes!
For today's challenge...
..three members of your tribe will be tied together
and loaded down with a weighted bag.
On my go, you'll race around a course
attempting to catch the other tribe.
Now, at any point you can pass your bag to another tribemate
but you cannot drop out of the challenge.
You must keep moving.
First tribe to catch the other tribe wins a point for that round.
First tribe to the best of five wins reward.
- Want to know what you're playing for? - Yes!
Show us some food.
Winning tribe will get...
..individual gifts...
Oh! From home!
..sent all the way from home.
That's sweet!
Oh, my God!
Paige, you had a big reaction.
Yeah.
Everyone's having a tough time out here.
I've been sort of thrown around the Survivor game a bit so far...
..and it really makes you miss someone
that you trust and know.
And, you know, it's a struggle out here for everyone
so I'm sure everyone wants it, so, yeah.
It's just nice to sort of even be close to a bit of home.
Rob, I see you cracking a tear.
This game took me by surprise how, um...
..emotionally hard it would be.
And, um...
..to see my name there with a wrapped-up present from home...
Yeah, it's hard.
Steve, what are you hoping might be in there?
Oh, a picture, kids.
Are you missing your family after 19 days?
Yeah, totally.
You'd, uh...
You wouldn't be human
if you didn't miss your family and your loved ones.
I've probably been in a position, though...
..over the course of my life
where I've had to remove myself for long periods of time,
more so than a lot of others here.
But it doesn't make it any easier, especially as you get older as well.
I got a two-year-old, so... it's tough.
OK, Champs, you have an extra player.
you're gonna need to sit someone out. Who's it gonna be?
- Me. - OK, Monika, you're on the bench.
Everyone else, I'm gonna give you a minute to talk about it,
and we'll get to it.
Do you think we just go really hard?
So, the strong guys at the front, pushing the water.
Alright, here we go.
First round, we have Robbie, Fenella and Benji for the Contenders...
Go, Contenders.
..taking on Brian, Samuel and Sharn for the Champions.
Coming for you, Sammy boy.
For reward. Survivors ready?
- Go! - You got this!
Ooh, the Champions are fast out of the gate.
That water is deep. It's gonna wear you out fast.
Contenders trying to make a move.
Definitely a strategy here,
do you go out hard and chase them down
or do you let them wear themselves out?
We're in front! We're in front!
How are you going, old man? How you going?
Skip, big drives. Good, Sharn.
Take the bag off Sharn, if you can.
Sharn has passed her bag to Brian.
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Breathe, Benji!
Breathe. Keep the pace going.
Keep going, Benji. Keep going, Benji.
Benji is hurting right now.
Come on, guys.
They're making up some room now so you've gotta push.
Quick push. Let's go.
Give me the bag, Benji. Give me the bag.
Benji hands his bag to Robbie,
Robbie's carrying two.
Go! Go!
- Mind over matter, buddy. - Come on, Benji!
Come on. You're the muscle. Come on, Benji.
Come on! Dig deep!
Come on, Benj.
- Come on, Benj. - Come on, Benj.
Come on, Benj. Come on.
Come on, Benji! Come on, Benji!
Benji's done. Go!
Come on, team, let's go.
Another sprint from the Champions here.
Go! They're coming!
No. Don't worry. Save yourselves, save yourselves.
And that's it, the Contenders stop, they give up.
Champions lead, one-zip.
Well done, guys.
That was frickin' amazing. I love you guys.
Next round, we have Mat, Steve and Lydia for the Champions,
taking on Zach, Anita and Shonee for the Contenders.
For reward.
Survivors ready?
Go!
- Let's go. - Go, Red.
They're coming fast.
Oh, the Champions are fast out of the gate.
They're coming fast, guys, they're coming fast.
Pick it up. Pick it up a bit, if you can.
A lot of endurance involved in this challenge.
You've got it, guys. You've got it.
Probably gained a metre on 'em.
- That's it. - You're gaining, guys.
Champions are closing down the gap.
I can't... I can't. I'm...
Hey, Zach, grab Anita's bag!
Keep going! Keep going!
Anita is already passing off her bag to Zach.
Anita, struggling to high-knee it through the water.
Go. Speed up. Speed up. Speed up.
High knees. High knees. High knees.
You're gonna get 'em.
That's it.
Let's go.
Oh! She falls over.
This could be all over for them. That's it.
Champions take the crown.
Well done, Mat. Well done, Steve and Lydia.
Well done, Anita. That's bloody hard.
- Oh. - You alright, honey?
- You're alright. - I'm sorry.
- You don't need to be sorry. - No, no.
Hey, don't let your thoughts get the better of you.
Thanks, mate.
Your family, know they love you, no matter what.
- Remember that. - Thanks, honey.
Next round we have Lydia, Shane and Jackie for the Champions
taking on Heath, Paige and Zach for the Contenders.
You got this, guys.
Champions lead, two-zip.
Survivors ready?
You've got it, guys.
Move! Move!
Ooh, the Contenders are hard out of the gate.
- Go, Paige. Go, Paige. - Come on.
They wanna get one on the board.
Almost there! You're almost there!
This is the shallow bit. Move here. Move here, fast.
Oh, they're closing the gap.
Skip, skip.
Keep going, Paige! Come on, Paige!
Huge effort from the Contenders.
This is gonna be the fastest round ever.
Yes!
Just like that!
Contenders put themselves on the board.
Good job, guys.
Next round, we have Brian, Samuel and Sharn for the Champions
taking on Zach, Paige and Fenella for the Contenders.
Contenders need to win this round to stay in the challenge.
Survivors ready?
Go!
Let's go, let's go.
They're going out hard. They're going out hard. Let's go.
Yeah, Red! Go, Zach!
Go, Zach. Go, Zach.
Zach wants blood on this one.
He's dragging Paige and Fenella.
Help him! Help him, Paige! Help him!
- Go, Zach! - Come on, Zach!
Contenders are closing the gap.
Kick. Let's go, let's go. Kick. Kick.
Zach is a machine over there.
No, keep going.
Paige and Fenella, struggling to keep up.
Come on, Paige! You're almost there, Paige!
You're almost there!
Get the bag. Get the bag.
Let's go. Come on.
Sharn has passed her bag to Brian.
Guys, sprint!
Paige passes her bag off to Zach.
That's gonna slow him down.
Ready, set, kick.
Champions trying to widen the gap in the shallow end.
There you go, they're hurting.
The girls are hurting more than you guys. Keep going.
Contenders had a big lead at the start of this challenge
but they seem to be losing it.
Go, go, Brian. Here you go. Good work, guys. Good work.
Ready?
Champions have evened up the gap.
Go, kick.
Big breath, Paige! Big breath!
Paige, it's all mental! It's all mental!
Go, Paige. Go, Paige.
Contenders are completely gassed.
Think about the present!
Think about your family. Think about the family!
That's it, Paige!
I...
19 days out here,
no food rewards for the Contenders.
It is showing.
I can't...
Come on, you can. You can.
Dig in, Paige. Dig in.
Dig deep!
Paige, really exhausted.
Paige, dig deep!
Ready?
Kick!
Good work, guys! Good work.
Zach, carry Paige.
You right?
Come on.
Paige just cannot go on any further.
And that's it! Champions win reward.
Three-one.
You OK, honey?
Paige, you did well.
Well done, Paige.
- You OK? - Sorry.
It's alright, darling.
- It's alright. - Let's get you unlinked, honey.
It's alright, Paige. It's alright.
Champions, congratulations. Come and grab your gifts.
Head on out. Enjoy.
Paige, is that a tough one to lose today?
Yeah.
It really is really hard being out here
and feeling really alone a lot of the time.
So... any piece of home would have been really, really good.
So it really hurts.
Well...
..I wish the outcome were different, but...
..sadly, I've got nothing for you.
Head on out. I'll see you guys tomorrow.
This was probably THE toughest reward to ever has lost for us.
Seeing those presents, seeing them so close, like in touching distance,
broke our hearts.
Well done, everyone.
It was a great feeling coming back with our spoils today.
Really proud of everyone.
Everyone just dug in and, um, you know, we got the job done,
which was really cool.
- Alright. - What have you got, Lydia?
I don't know.
Wow.
Oh!
Nice.
Every Olympics I bring one back, and this one's in the boys' room, so...
It smells... It smells like them.
And these are my boys.
- Oh, gorgeous. - Very cute.
- Oh, they're so cute. - Fantastic picture.
You know, you would think that they kind of just don't go hand in hand.
In one sense, being an athlete,
you've got to be a very selfish, kind of driven person.
And then you've got me as a mum,
who, you know, is completely family orientated,
completely about being at home with the kids and meal times
and loving them
and, you know, my heart is completely open,
my guard is completely down.
It's so nice to see you. Yep.
OK. Me.
Um, that's my daughter's bunny. So, every night she sleeps with that.
So, there's going to be two people not sleeping, me and her.
So, I better not lose that.
Alright, mate?
My mum, she's been really struggling the last sort of...
..five years...
..with illness.
Watching someone in your family in pain, it drives you as a person.
For me, coming into this game, I wanted to do it for her.
I'm here to make her proud.
So, I'll do anything to win this game.
Alright. Let's see what's in here.
Oh... Photos... of...
- Oh, that's my family... - Aww.
..just after I retired. 2010 that photo was.
Oh, my God.
Oh...
My mum used to write a lot of poems.
And she, uh...
She used to write a lot of poems.
So, your mum wrote that poem?
- My mum did, yeah. - Oh, my God.
- About my dad. - Wow.
Wow.
I lost my mum and dad pretty early.
I lost my mum to breast cancer. She was 42 years old.
That's how old I am now, you know?
Dad sort of took a bit of a downward turn after that.
Depression took a hold of him and he took his own life,
you know, a few years later.
Dad had a heart of gold.
They were an amazing pair, you know.
My mum could be drinking in the front bar
with the biggest larrikins you've ever met in your life.
But then, you know, the next week she'd be having tea with the Queen
and she'd fit in.
She was amazing.
And my wife's exactly the same. Exactly the same.
Love it. She's just beautiful.
Yeah. Pretty special.
My family, it's the best team I've ever been a part of.
And I just miss being away from it so much.
So, when my husband Alesandro and I were dating
I had to go away overseas for work, and he created this to resemble him.
Baby girl, I miss you so much.
We all love you and so proud of you.
Aww.
He used to just say, "I love you."
He's recorded something new on it.
That's cool.
It's a really nice connecting thing
and it just shows you that we're all human.
- Look. Look. - Cutie.
We're all feeling the same way being apart from our families.
- Aww... - Cool.
And it bonds us together because here we are each other's families.
- Ah! Pippi Longstocking. - Awesome.
She's my favourite. She's my heroine.
This is... a folder of my inventions as a kid.
Aww.
With a picture of Ruben, my lovely ginger cat.
Oh, Ruben.
Maybe a kite.
I have four kids.
Family, to me, is everything.
Yeah, I'm a little speechless. Sorry, guys.
Oh, that's from my four kids.
One of the things says, "What does Daddy like to drink?"
"Protein shakes."
Don't tell anybody.
The one from Jack probably has 10 to 15 questions on there.
The one question that he was asked that really hit me
was, "Why is your daddy special?"
I can't say it without crying.
"Because... I love him."
And, you know, my kids really mean the world to me.
I think that's something that I've searched for,
not that I've needed to search for, my whole life is...
..is love.
You know, acceptance.
Come on in, guys.
Alright, you guys ready to get to today's immunity challenge?
- Yes, sir. - Shane.
- Thank you. - There you go.
Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.
For today's challenge, you'll each hold above your head a sandbag
tethered to a trough of water.
If you tire you can hand your sandbag to someone else.
But if you drop your sandbag the trough will tip,
soaking your entire tribe.
The last tribe to remain dry wins immunity, safe from the vote.
The losing tribe will join me at Tribal Council,
where someone will be sent to Exile Beach
and will have to fight their way back into this game.
Champions, you've got an extra player,
you're gonna need to sit someone out.
It cannot be the same person in back-to-back challenges.
- Who's it gonna be? - Shane?
OK, alright.
- Yeah. - Shane.
Alright, Shane, you're on the bench.
Everyone else, a minute to strategise, and we'll get to it.
Do your best.
Here we go. For immunity.
Three, two, one.
This now challenge is now on.
You need to keep that bag above the top of your head.
- Too easy, guys. - Do it.
Yeah, strong. Nice.
Do all the little things now, it will pay off in the end.
Hook those shoulders in, squeeze your glutes.
Sink your knees a little bit.
Seven kilograms in that bag.
It's gonna start to feel heavy really fast.
Three minutes in.
Starting to get a little movement now.
Shonee starting to struggle.
No, I'm not!
Apparently, I have that wrong.
Anita's arms starting to shake.
- You got this, Neet. - Do you want me to take it?
- Nup. No, no, no. - I got you, man.
You love that burn.
Jackie trying to get comfortable.
Lydia's like a rock.
This is definitely a team effort.
If you can't hold the weight you can hand your bag to someone else.
But if you drop your bag you're gonna soak the entire tribe
and you put immunity in jeopardy.
Give us everything, Neets. Give us everything you've got.
- Everything you've got, guys. - She's done.
Stay with it as long as possible, Neets. As long as possible.
OK, I think I'm ready to go already, Rob.
- Yeah. Yeah. - Far out.
You did great, Anita. Head up, Neets. Head up.
Anita is handing her bag to Rob. Rob now has two.
Nothing but a chicken wing, Robbie.
OK, Anita, you're out. Hit the bench.
Head up high, honey.
The Contenders are down to seven, Champions still have all eight.
Paige trying to shake it out.
I'm getting close. No, I've got it. I've got it for a while.
- Hold out, Paige. Hold out. - You can lock back that arm, girl.
You know, chest up, core on.
- Zach giving her advice. - Alright?
Put your shoulders back, chest up. There you go. There you go.
I know who said that. It's gotta be Brian.
- Gotta be Brian. - Gotta be Brian.
Brian talking? That you again, mate?
Yeah, I've got nothing to sell. I was looking at the horizon.
Just watch your food intake, mate, that's all.
We are 10 minutes in.
Savage, girls. There you go.
Jackie starting to feel it now.
- You right, Jac? - Yeah, my back's hurting.
Squeeze your ribs down.
I've gotta pass.
Jackie hands her bag to Brian.
She's out of the challenge. We're down to seven each.
- There we go. - Easy, guys. Easy.
Each tribe has one more bag than tribemates.
I'm getting close.
Paige really struggling now.
Really trying to stay in this.
Mm.
Is anyone ready?
Zach reaches in, he takes from Paige. Paige is out.
Contenders are down to six.
- Good work, Paige. - I'm sorry, guys.
It's all good, baby. I got this.
- Zach's feeling confident. - Yeah, I got this. Don't worry.
- Nothing but a chicken wing. - Zach has two, Rob has two.
I need to pass.
Yeah. OK, then.
Shonee's out. Things are moving along now.
So, Zach has two, Benji has two, Rob has two, for the Contenders.
Come on, it's just around the corner. We can sniff it.
We want this. We want the win more than anything.
Just relax and breathe like Lydia said.
Big, slow, controlled breaths.
Steve coaching the Champions through the pain. A little Tai Chi advice.
Breathe into your arms. Visualise.
See, she's going. Princess is going.
- Bri. I'm sorry. - Nah, Steve, Steve, Steve.
Steve. I'm sorry.
Steve takes the bag from Monika. Monika's on the bench.
Champions now down to six, and Contenders are down to five.
That's 20 minutes, guys.
Everyone starting to show signs of fatigue now.
How are you doing, Fenell?
Well, look, I've had better days.
Fenella is the last girl standing on the Contenders.
Fenell, we need you.
As long as you've got. As much as you've got.
She's proving her worth for the tribe.
I've been doing that since day one, mate.
You certainly have. Yesterday, great performance.
Are youse right?
- Come on. - Pass the bag?
- I need a second. - Zach grunting it out.
- I need a second. - You need a second? Alright, mate.
- Hang on. - Rest your arm for a second.
Zach really feeling it now.
Sam really feeling it.
- You've got this, boys. - They're starting to wobble.
Struggle starting to show on the Champions' faces.
But Lydia still a rock.
It's a game of willpower.
One slip and it could all be over.
Tribal Council for the losing tribe tonight.
Someone's gonna be sent to Exile Beach.
OK, Fenella's struggling. She's gonna pass her bag soon, guys.
Guys, I'm ready to... I'm not... It's...
- I'll go, Fenell. - Fenella wants to tap out.
- Tell me when. - OK, go.
Not many options left now.
Benji takes it. Nothing but the boys left for the Contenders now.
Can you take another one for a second, bro?
Oh, risky move between Heath and Zach.
Zach is holding three at once.
Oh, you've got it, Zach. Go, Zach. Go, Zach.
He's busted. Zach's busted. Zach's busted.
Go, Champs.
Here you go.
- You got it? - Yeah.
Another risky move between Robbie and Benji. Benji has three.
Wow, it's getting down to the wire now.
Can they hold this together?
They're juggling these bags.
It's madness out there right now.
Really struggling.
OK, 40%. You've got them beaten.
- Huge effort from the Contenders. - Go, Robbie! Go, Robbie!
Heath has three. He's trying to push them up.
Robbie's really struggling at the end there.
He's trying to hold it together.
And he drops!
That's it! Champions win immunity.
Oh, my God.
Yay! Yes!
Champions, congratulations.
Once again, immunity is yours.
You guys are safe, no-one going to Exile Beach.
Grab your gear, head on out. Enjoy the evening off.
Let's go, guys.
Good luck tonight, guys. Yeah, good luck.
- Cheers. - Thanks, guys. See ya.
Different story for you guys.
Tribal tonight.
Someone's going to become the second person sent to Exile.
You'll have the afternoon to work out who that's gonna be.
Grab your gear, head on out. I'll see you tonight.
- Thanks, Jonathan. - Catch ya.
When we lost the challenge today I wasn't unhappy at all.
I'm excited to now put my plan into action.
I want to take down the king now and send him to Exile to meet his queen.
I'm really proud of myself.
I built a shelter.
I made fire from a flint.
You know, there was no-one here helping me. I did it on my own.
Having come to Exile Beach, it's definitely changed my game.
I thought a lot about my family and my boys.
It's given me the strength to keep my head straight.
It's given me the courage that I need
to get off this beach and back at the Contenders tribe.
I'll do whatever it takes.
I've got no loyalties to anybody.
I'm not intimidated to go up against anyone.
I'm hoping it's a Contender.
I'd love revenge.
I wanna fight. I wanna be here. I wanna come out on top.
I swore I've seen that challenge go longer.
It sucks, losing immunity challenge.
I definitely feel like I'm in trouble tonight at tribal council.
But, I'm not gonna go off to Exile.
We did what we could, guys.
I wanna give Tegan the best opportunity possible
to beat whoever's sent there.
At the end of the day, they're elite athletes.
Anita was probably the weakest in the challenge today
and that's a really good thing for me to talk to the tribe about
and try and sway the votes.
I have an idol.
If I can convince everyone to vote off Anita,
I won't play it tonight.
If one guy goes tonight, youse are screwed.
If we lose a guy, it'll be... it'll be...
Mm-hm.
..challenge after challenge going down the drain.
You guys will go home before merge, I can guarantee it.
- Yes. - Guarantee it.
I agree.
Every challenge we go to, mate, it's still strength.
- Look at today. - Yeah.
Look at yesterday.
We can't go into these challenges weak.
We'll never win them.
We'll never have any chance of winning them.
The women on the Champions team are just so strong
and our girls, on this side, just aren't getting the job done.
The two people who I'd be voting for would be either Anita...
..or Paige.
Completely up to you guys, man. I can't...
I can't do anything from this point, like, I can't save myself,
so whatever you guys tell me is going on is...
..I'll take as your word.
Me and Heath have had a tumultuous relationship
but, right now, strength is probably the key attribute
that needs to be kept in this tribe.
Because these challenges are all so physical.
I'm more than happy to take out the weakest members of our tribe.
- Sure? - Mm.
- 100%. - Mm.
Anita's not pulling her weight with challenges
- 'cause she's not strong enough. - Yep.
The last people standing are the guys in every challenge.
Both teams. It's not just ours.
You know, if we don't get rid of Anita,
- the strength of the tribe is gonna go down. - Yeah.
And every challenge from now on, we're just gonna lose.
I know, we're just gonna keep losing.
I'm pretty sick of that losing feeling.
Anita is a good option for Tribal Council tonight.
She is one of the weaker girls in the tribe.
- 100% the weakest player. - Yep.
I mean, strategically, she just... is all emotion.
So if... if I tell the boys that you're onboard with... Anita...
- Yeah. - Are you happy to vote Anita?
Yeah.
She thinks Anita needs to go.
- Anita? - Yeah.
- Yeah. Target those three, yeah. - Cool.
Heath bought it.
He thinks that I'm voting for Anita tonight.
He doesn't know it's me who sent Tegan to Exile Island.
Now I can actually execute the plan that I put into place
and send the king to Exile to get rid of his queen.
Huh?
Yeah.
I 100% want to do Heath because it's like the easy next vote.
- Yep. - It's just him.
Yep.
What's the point of trying to break them up if one of them...
Like, if we can... I mean, both of them can come back.
Right.
I do think convincing Shonee was super easy.
She already knew Tegan was after them
and it was a lie I made up
to get Anita, Shonee and Fenella, who are super close, onboard.
They're absolutely critical for my plan tonight.
- I know Rob's down as well. - Mm-hm.
So if you get four plus Anita, we're good.
- Like, whatever you reckon is good. - Yep.
Our whole tribe has been talking
about sending Heath over there
but I'm also thinking about voting Zach tonight.
Mm.
Yeah.
Zach, to be honest, he just rubs everyone the wrong way.
I've never really trusted him. I can't control him.
I just really want Zach's name down.
Yep.
The girls and I don't necessarily agree on our next vote.
I think it's...
But I knew which way I was going.
I can no longer trust Heath and Tegan.
They tried to put my name down previously.
We need to continue to get Tegan and Heath out of the game.
- I think it's a mistake. - Because everyone hates him.
Hmm?
In Heath's head, everyone's going to be voting Anita
and he'll be safe,
when in reality, everyone's coming for Heath.
It's gonna be exciting, it's gonna be fun
and I can't wait to see him walk out.
Tribal Council tonight.
I wouldn't say I'm the most relaxed person, uh, around camp.
I mean, but I feel pretty confident that I have the numbers on my side
so I don't need to play my hidden immunity idol tonight.
Tonight, Anita will be going home, I'm gonna get Tegan back onboard.
There's no other way.
Well, you guys have been playing this game for 20 days now.
But I think it would be fair to say that the last couple
have been particularly difficult for this tribe.
I mean, it is true
that you guys haven't won a single reward challenge
since the start of this game.
Well, Robbie, is it starting to take a toll?
Of course it is.
You know, when you go back to back to back to back losing,
it's not fun.
And, you know, there is all these thoughts coming to your head saying,
"Shit, can we actually beat these guys?" You know?
They are champions for a reason.
When you keep losing it's hard to keep up those positive attitudes.
Well, Zach, I mean, to be fair,
you guys have won challenges against the Champions.
So, what do you need to get back to that?
That's a really tough question.
Like, we've been beating our heads against the wall
trying to figure this out.
I think it's pretty obvious that I provide physical strength.
I mean, I'm out there just killing it in challenges at the moment.
And tribe strength just seems to be
one of the things that's just so crucial right now.
That's been the theme for this whole thing, is keep the tribe strong.
But it's...
I mean, even that isn't working.
So, I'm getting frustrated over here. I don't know what to do.
Anita, is this game harder than you expected it to be?
Oh, my God, it's beyond anything I ever expected,
physically, emotionally and mentally, it is huge.
Yesterday, seeing those little prezzies at arm's reach,
oh, brought us all to tears, really.
So, Heath, when you hear
that there are some people in this tribe who are having a tough time,
is that a concern for you?
Physically, it's a tough game.
Mentally, you know, your mind never stops ticking.
And emotionally, being away from your loved ones,
is the hardest part of all.
But that's what we signed up for.
What about you, Zach?
How do you feel about people struggling emotionally out here?
We're all struggling emotionally out here,
but it just kind of amplifies everything.
Then you start making decisions based on emotion,
which is never a good thing.
You know, we're out here to win.
We need tribe strength
and we need to make strong, rational decisions.
Anita, what do you think about Zach's position?
I understand what he says by strength.
But, you know, he's as emotional as I am.
And strength to me also means other things.
You know, you can be strong physically.
But strength also to me is about your numbers.
If you have strong numbers with you and who you're playing with,
that's a good strength too.
Alright. Let's talk about the elephant in the room,
Exile Beach.
So, Heath, Tegan obviously ended up at Exile.
Do you think she expected that to happen?
No, she didn't expect that at all.
There was obviously seven people who knew about it and two that didn't.
I think she was probably least expecting to go to Exile Beach.
Rob, why do you think Tegan was voted out that night?
I feel like most people in the tribe thought
she was probably a potential threat
and, you know, a threat is obviously dangerous
and they need to be sort of sent home.
She was a very smart player, she was very organised
and I thought she was talking to a lot of people.
Well, Benji, Tegan has the potential to come back into this game
so, effectively, her blindside is only half complete.
So, what do you do?
Do you send your strongest person in challenges to go and finish the job?
Yeah. It's definitely a tough one.
I think the problem with sending the strongest to finish a job
is that they're going to come back
and we'll be in the same position as if Tegan came back.
So it definitely is a big twist, and it's left us all thinking.
Well, Zach, to play devil's advocate,
maybe it's better to send your weakest person in challenges,
sacrifice them and keep the tribe strong.
That's the other side of the coin
and it's not a bad way of looking at things.
I've got a feeling I know where the vote is going tonight,
but if it's me that goes down there,
I don't mind coming back here.
So if it is you that goes tonight,
how do you feel about taking on Tegan in a one-on-one challenge?
I think I've got her number.
You want us to send you out there, bro?
I'd rather if you didn't.
Heath, how would you feel about taking on Tegan?
It all depends on the challenge.
You might think sitting here now, not knowing what the challenge is,
that because you're physically strong
you can go in there and win it.
But it might not be physical.
There's a chance that even the weakest person in the tribe
could go in there and win it.
There's a chance that the strongest could
and there's a chance that the strongest could go home.
So, are you willing to sacrifice one of the strongest
to bring back someone who's not as physically strong?
Anita, what do you think is the worst outcome of tonight's vote?
That people don't stick to their word
'cause I'm one to stick to your word.
Heath, how do you think the tribe is going to be different
after tonight's vote?
I think it all depends on who goes.
Whoever goes to face off with Tegan
has a 50/50 chance of being kicked out of this game
or coming back into it.
So, depending on who they want to keep in the game
and who they want to lose,
they might want to think pretty hard about it.
Alright. Well, on that note, I think we should vote.
Shonee.
How to break up a power couple, step two.
Benji.
You're a big, handsome, lovable guy, but you took my boy Stevie,
so you're gonna have to battle it out on Exile to come back.
I'll go count the votes.
If anyone has a hidden immunity idol and they want to play it,
now would be the time to do so.
Yeah, actually.
There's something weighing my bag down, so...
Thank you.
Shit!
I can confirm that this is in fact a hidden immunity idol
and any votes cast for Heath will not count.
Once the votes are read, the decision is final.
The person voted out will be asked
to leave the Tribal Council area immediately.
I'll read the votes.
First vote...
..Heath.
Does not count.
Heath.
Does not count.
Heath. Does not count.
- Heath. - Ooh!
Does not count.
Heath. Does not count.
One vote left.
The second person going to Exile Beach...
..Anita.
You need to grab your torch and your gear...
..and head out onto Exile.
You come back for us, Neets.
Whatever happens, love you guys.
- Love you. - Love you, Neets.
- Good luck out there. - Thank you.
Well, if you don't plan for everything in this game...
..then all your plans may come to nothing.
Grab your torches, head on out.
Oh... See ya, Jonathan.
See ya, Jono.
Monday night on Australian Survivor...
- You turned on me! - I did not turn on you!
- Who told you that? - Uh, the boys.
..the truth revealed.
I will do anything now.
I don't care.
Tegan wants revenge.
There's no more nice Tegan.
But first...
Tegan very focused.
..she'll have to fight Anita...
Go, Teegs. Go, Teegs. Quick! Quick! Quick, quick!
..to get back in the game.
It's coming! It's coming!
Oh! Just like that, Tegan's tower falls over!
