Returning
to camp after their first Tribal Council,
the members of Sook Jai had a small talk
about what happened. Shii Ann said that
it wasn't a nice experience hearing her
name read. Robb, on the other hand, said
that he expected some votes. The concensus
was that they don't wanna go through that
experience again. They agreed to work hard
in the next challenges and show the other
tribe how strong they really are. The next
day, Sook jai woke up to a nice morning.
As the tide was low, pieces of squid was
scattered along the shore. Stephanie started
gathering as the others looked on. It was
evident that Stephanie didn't feel so good
about her tribemates. In their confessions,
Stephanie criticized her tribemates for
voting out Jed. According to her, there's
no sense in voting out the person who contributes
a lot to the tribe. Meanwhile, Robb thought
that Shii Ann would be removed. On the other
hand, Penny thought that the majority of
the tribe made the right choice to vote
out Jed. She said that Jed had pretty much
been running the show all by himself.
On
Chuay Gahn, the rift between Ted and Ghandia
is becoming worse. As a result, the whole
tribe had split along gender lines. In her
confession, Helen said that she believes
Ghandia's story while the men would naturally
believe Ted's version. Ghandia meanwhile,
expressed how vulnerable she feels because
of Ted. She said that Ted has been avoiding
her, not treating her as a part of the tribe.
She feels that Ted brings an atmosphere
of animosity that influences everyone. Basically,
Ghandia felt alienated. In his own confession,
Ted confessed how he felt about Ghandia.
He said that he doesn't wanna see Ghandia
ever again. On the other hand, Clay added
that the first time he already smelled trouble
the first time he saw Ghandia. According
to him, he hoped that Ghandia wouldn't be
on his tribe.
The
next day, a tree mail came informing them
of their next challenge. Along with it came
a huge dummy and a set of painting materials
they can use to decorate it. Although divided,
the Chuay Gahn came together to decorated
their dummy. All of them contributed in
the process. However, It was not the case
in Sook Jai. Stephanie stepped up and decided
to decorate the dummy by herself. The rest
of the tribe just looked on as she continued
decorating. As they came to the challenge
site, they were delighted to find out that
the reward would be food. The winner of
the challenge will receive bananas and a
surprise food reward that will wait in their
camp. Jeff then explained the rules of the
challenge. It's very simple, the teams have
to carry their dummy around the island and
the first one to come back to the finish
line wins. As the race started, the teams
found out that it wasn't as simple as they
thought. Aside from the fact that the dummy
was very heavy, they had to navigate themselves
along stoney paths, uphill and downhill
before they can reach the finish line. In
the end, Sook Jai's strength prevailed and
won the reward.
Coming
back to the island, Sook Jai feasted on
the bananas they won. And as they arrived
at their camp they found their surprise
reward: Chicken! The tribe was very happy
as they would get stronger because of the
food reward. Even the usually frustrated
Stephanie was happy. As the Sook Jai tribe
was rejoicing, the Chuay Gahn tribe is having
a difficult time mingling with each other.
The tribe continued to separate into the
men vs. the women. As the women of the tribe
stayed at home doing all the "household
chores," the men were out on the beach
swimming and bathing in the sun. Brian defended
themselves saying that they were out gathering
food.
Immunity
challenge came and it was a mental one.
It was an age old puzzle. The two tribes
have to form two images: fire and the tribal
council in the image of a temple, using
tiles of different shapes. Only two members
of each tribe can get their hands on the
tiles at a time. After they finished one
image, they will be replaced by two other
members. The rest of the tribe can only
coach on the side. As the game started,
the two tribes were head to head. Sook Jai
finished their first image slightly ahead
of Chuay Gahn. In the end, the Sook Jai
tribe proved their worth and won another
immunity.
Back
at camp, The women started to plan out their
strategy in voting out the men. Jan and
Ghandia agreed to voted for Clay. Ghandia
then went to Helen to tell her about the
plan. Helen agreed with Ghandia but in her
confession, Helen said that she is not yet
decided. She admitted that she could be
the swing vote. During the tribal council,
it truly was a gender bender as Helen turned
her back on the women and voted for Ghandia.
Having four votes against her, Ghandia was
removed from the island.
