I'm already exited for the 3rd episode.

The 2nd will be up on Sunday, the 3rd next week. I don't know if this was a typo or not, but hey, I'm excited for episode 3 too!

It would have been cool if Jeff Varner is voted off first because Cao Boi is interesting.

Did you mean Jeff Wilson? I agree that he wasn't as interesting as some of the others in the first episode, but remember, it was only the first episode. Hopefully you'll find him more interesting next time. If not, then I'm sure there'll be plenty of other interesting people to like.

EPISODE 2 will be up Sunday afternoon, same time as last week. There's been some interesting speculation, especially regarding the boot, so we'll soon find out who, if anyone, was close :) Have a great day!

Thanks for posting, tropical rain, and congrats on your first post here at Survivor Sucks!

I enjoyed it, I felt like I got to know everyone fairly well. Keep them coming!

Great, I'm glad to hear that.

Thanks for giving me some popularity ratings too. They have definitely changed since pre-show.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the season!

I've just got around to reading the 1st episode and I'm shocked the yellow tribe lost. They seemed totally stacked to me!

Physical strength doesn't always win everything. Remember Ulong? James mentioned this too about the tribe being "stacked", and once again, they lost first. Plus, it's really not that interesting if the physically stronger tribe keeps winning and winning. It becomes too predictable, and I want to avoid too much predictability.

Those are some very good ratings, tropical rain. I really don't have a problem with any of those ratings. Although, some of the tones weren't what I was going for. Leslie was meant to be neutral, though I could see that very small N with the shelter scene, so I see where that's coming from. On the other side of the spectrum, Dave was not meant to be positive, but rather neutral. Really, everything else I could totally understand. For your first time with edgic, you did really well!

I'm going to go ahead and post the episode now, about an hour early. I hope this isn't too much of a problem for anyone :)

Reward Challenge - Coconutball

<Jeff Probst is shown waiting in a clearing in the jungle. Behind him are two giant slingshots and two large baskets further in the distance.>

Jeff Probst: Tikei, come on in.

<The Tikei tribe walks in and takes a spot on their mat.>

Jeff Probst: Come on in, Rapa.

<Rapa walks in as Tikei is shown looking for the missing person.>

Jeff Probst: Tikei getting their first look at the new Rapa tribe; Cao Boi voted out at the first Tribal Council.

Dave: Ooh.

Jeff Probst: Ready to get to today's challenge?

<The survivors say "yes".>

Jeff Probst: Behind me are two large slingshots with a pile of coconuts next to them. As you can see, there are two baskets hanging in the distance. Your task is simple: launch the coconuts into the basket. Each time you do, you score a point for your tribe. The first tribe to score twenty points wins reward. Now, let's see what you're playing for.

<Jeff moves toward a covered table as shots of the excited survivor are shown. Jeff unveils a table with fishing gear.>

Jeff Probst: Fishing gear.

<Screams can be heard at the mention of the words.>

Brian: Sweet!

Jeff Probst: Two snorkels, two Hawaiian slings, a set of hooks, fishing line, everything you need to catch some fish.

Brook: We could really use that.

Jeff Probst: Rapa, because you do not yet have fire, you will be playing for flint as well.

<James is shown nodding his head.>

Jeff Probst: Also, there's one more order of business to take care of, but I'll get to that after the challenge.

<Ashley is shown with a confused look on her face.>

Jeff Probst: Tikei, because you have one extra person, you're sitting somebody out. Who's it going to be?

Wanda: <to her tribe> I'll sit out, you guys.

Dave: It's Wanda.

Jeff Probst: Okay, Wanda, take a seat on the bench. Everyone else, take your places and wait for my go.

<A time lapse occurs and the camera returns to the survivors, waiting for Jeff's "go". Jeff and Brook are first up, waiting near their slingshots.>

Jeff Probst: Survivors ready? Go!

<Both Jeff and Brook quickly grab a coconut and place it in their slingshot.>

Jeff Probst: Once you establish an order, stick to it. Keep the same rotation.

<Brook is shown aiming toward the basket. He shoots, and misses.>

Jeff Probst: Brook a little short of the basket.

<Jeff shoots his coconut. It goes straight into the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Right off the bat, Jeff makes a basket, scoring a point for Tikei. They're up one-zip.

<Dave and James are now up. They both take aim and launch a coconut. Both miss the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Both Dave and James miss the basket. Tikei still leads.

<Ashley and Misty are now shown grabbing a coconut and putting it in the slingshot. Misty is shown taking aim.>

Jeff Probst: Misty trying to put Rapa on the board.

<Misty launches her coconut. It goes into the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Misty scores for Rapa!

<Ashley launches and misses.>

Ashley: Crap.

Jeff Probst: Ashley misses the basket. We're all tied up one to one. Tina and Leslie going to try and score for their tribe.

<Tina is shown picking up a coconut, putting it back, and choosing another one.>

Jeff Probst: Tina didn't like her first coconut.

Tina: I get a good feeling from this one.

<Jeff smiles and shakes his head. Leslie takes aim and misses the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Leslie just misses.

Leslie: Shoot.

<Tina is shown lining up her shot. She launches her coconut and makes a basket.>

Tina: Woo hoo!

Jeff Probst: Tina scores!

Tina: What did I tell ya?

Jeff Probst: Tikei leads two-one.

<The camera fades into a later scene. The score is shown. Tikei has 8 points, Rapa has 7. Brian and Erica step up and take aim. They both make a basket.>

Jeff Probst: Both score, we're now at nine-eight, Tikei still in the lead. Anthony and Aaron trying to score now.

<Aaron and Anthony both take aim and launch their coconuts. Anthony misses, but Aaron puts his into the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Aaron scores for Rapa! We're tied up at nine, it's anybody's game.

<Now various clips of Jeff are being flipped through.>

Jeff Probst: Tracy connects!

<Cut>

Jeff Probst: Brook and Jeff both score. We're tied at eleven each.

<Cut>

Jeff Probst: Ashley just misses.

Ashley: "O" for three.

<Cut>

Jeff Probst: Brian scores for Tikei!

<Cut>

Jeff Probst: Aaron ties it up again. We're at fifteen-all.

<Cut>

Jeff Probst: Angie scores another point for Rapa!

<The camera now fades into a scene with Misty and Ashley at the slingshots.>

Jeff Probst: Here's where we're at: Tikei has nineteen, Rapa has eighteen. Ashley, all you have to do is make this basket, and your tribe wins reward.

Ashley: Easy, right?

Jeff Probst: Misty, if Ashley misses and you make it, you tie it up.

Misty: Okay.

Jeff Probst: Grab a coconut and take aim.

Tracy: Let's go Ashley!

Ashley: I haven't made one yet!

<Misty and Ashley both take a coconut and set it in their slingshot. They are both shown taking aim. Misty launches and misses.>

Jeff Probst: Misty just misses the basket. Ashley could win it here.

<Ashley lets out a deep sigh, followed by a shot of her tribe waiting anxiously for her to shoot. Ashley launches her coconut. It hits the rim and bounces into the basket.>

Jeff Probst: Ashley scores, and with that, Tikei wins reward!

<Tikei is shown cheering as Ashley comes running into the huddle. Misty is then shown with a look of disappointment. She says to Brook, "sorry".>

Jeff Probst: Tikei, come get your reward.

<Dave and Jeff approach Probst and are handed the fishing gear.>

Jeff Probst: Alright, I promised you I had one more thing to take care of.

<Erica is shown looking at Jeff with a confused expression.>

Jeff Probst: Tikei, with winning the reward, you also won the right…to kidnap one person from the other tribe.

Brian: What?

Dave: Oh, man.

Jeff Probst: That person will come live with you, at your camp, until the next immunity challenge.

Aaron: Uh oh.

Jeff Probst: They will also be given <Jeff pulls out a small bottle with a message inside and also a tied scroll.> this bottle and this scroll. When they arrive at your camp, they must find a secret spot and read the scroll in private. Further instructions will then be provided.

Dave: I wonder what that could be.

Jeff Probst: Tikei, who are you going to kidnap?

<Tikei is shown huddling together before the camera switches to a nervous Rapa tribe, then goes back to Tikei who is looking at Jeff.>

Tracy: We're going to kidnap Misty.

<Misty turns her head toward Tracy.>

Jeff Probst: Misty, come grab these and join the Tikei tribe.

<Misty walks over to Jeff, grabs the bottle and scroll, and moves to the Tikei tribe.>

Jeff Probst: Remember Misty, it's very important that you read that in private. And do it before you return to your own tribe.

Misty: Yes sir.

Jeff Probst: Everyone, you can head on out. I'll see you later.

<Both tribes are shown walking out of the challenge area. Brook looks over at Misty, then Misty is shown looking down at the hand with the scroll in it before the camera fades to black.>

Tikei - Day 4

<The tribe is shown walking into camp, returning from the challenge.>

Dave: Home sweet home!

Ashley: Welcome, Misty!

Misty: Thanks.

Ashley - CONFESSIONAL: We won the reward challenge today, and along with winning fishing gear, we were also able to kidnap Misty from the other tribe.

<Misty is shown standing by the fire.>

Misty: Oh my God, you guys have fire!

Brian: You guys haven't made it yet?

Misty: No, we've been trying. It just seems impossible without flint.

Ashley - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> What we're all really interested in is the bottle Misty was given before she came over here. If it's what I think it is, then somewhere around here, there's a hidden immunity idol. I remember this from China, so I'm going to try and get really close to Misty, just in case she has a clue for me.

<Ashley and Misty are walking along the beach.>

Ashley: So Cao Boi was voted out?

Misty: Yeah.

Ashley: We had a feeling it could be him. Was it pretty unanimous?

Misty: Yeah, everybody voted for him. He was kind of annoying, you know?

Ashley: We don't really have one person that's a target. I think we all get along really well. We'll see if that holds when we have to go to Tribal Council.

Misty: Then you'll see what people are really thinking.

Ashley: I know.

Ashley - CONFESSIONAL: Part of getting close to Misty also means trying to get some information from her. I want to know what's going on the other tribe, because I know what's going on over here. The more knowledge you have in this game, the better.

Brian: Hello ladies. Whatcha talking about.

Misty: Girl stuff.

Brian: I see.

Brian - CONFESSIONAL: I know what Ashley's doing, and I'm on to her little game. She's trying to get close to Misty, thinking she'll get some clues to a hidden immunity idol. If there is an idol, it won't be Ashley finding it. It'll be me.

Ashley: I'm gonna go get some water.

Misty: That sounds really good. I haven't had clean water in four days.

Brian: Well we'll get you some. You're our guest, you know.

Misty: <laughs>

Misty - CONFESSIONAL: Ever since I got here, I've been taking note of everything that's going on. I know when I get back to my tribe, they'll want to know what it's like over here, so I'm going to go back with as much information as I can possibly get.

<Tina, Wanda, Jeff, and Dave are sitting around the fire.>

Jeff: I think I'm going to try and go fishing.

Tina: Good luck!

Wanda: Catch a really big one.

Wanda - CONFESSIONAL: Jeff was the first one to try out our fishing gear. I think he wanted to prove how valuable he is for the tribe by catching a lot of fish. I hope he does; I think it would be good for him.

<Jeff is shown underwater with the Hawaiian sling. He moves around a rocky area looking for fish. Tina and Wanda are shown back at camp again.>

Tina: He's been down a while.

Wanda: Oh man, I hope he gets one.

<Jeff is shown popping out of the water with the sling in the air and a fish at the end of it.>

Tina: Woo hoo!

Wanda: Way to go Jeff!

Dave: That was fast.

Tina: Can you believe it?

Dave - CONFESSIONAL: Well Jeff caught a fish. I was kind of hoping I'd be the provider, but now Jeff steps in and turns out to be a master of the Hawaiian sling. Just what I need…

<Jeff is shown walking back into camp with three fish on the end of the sling.>

Tina: We're having fish tonight!

Wanda: You did great.

Dave: Nice job, man.

Jeff - CONFESSIONAL: I was really happy that I was able to catch not just one, but three fish. It's really great to be able to bring in food for the tribe. If I'm the only one who can fish, then there's no way I'll be going home.

Jeff: Let's fry these babies up!

Rapa - Day 4

<Angie, Brook, Erica, and Aaron are sitting in the shelter.>

Brook: Another loss…

Angie: It's Palau all over again.

Aaron: Man, we could be sitting by a fire right now.

Angie: I know.

Angie - CONFESSIONAL: After today's challenge, my record for total wins and losses on Survivor is 2 and 8. I have won two, two challenges! That's it! I thought my bad luck would be gone when I came here, but no. The curse is back.

Angie: Sorry guys, but I think I'm bringing the Ulong curse back.

Erica: Well we gotta break it.

Brook: We can't lose another one. We need to win so we can get fire.

Brook - CONFESSIONAL: For some reason, we just haven't been able to pull it together and win a challenge yet. We're desperately in need of fire over here, so we have to win a challenge soon. If not, we're going to be in some serious trouble.

<It is later in the day, and Leslie is now sitting on the beach where the tide meets the sand. She moves water across her legs.>

Leslie - CONFESSIONAL: I haven't really found my niche yet. You know, it's hard to relate to all these younger people, so I'm having a hard time fitting in. I know I was a target last night at Tribal Council, so it worries me that I could be going next.

<Brook, James, and Aaron are sitting in the shelter, looking toward the beach.>

James: Is that Leslie out there?

Brook: Yeah.

James: She knows her days are numbered.

Aaron: She just doesn't fit in, you know?

Brook: That's not our problem.

James - CONFESSIONAL: Leslie spends a lot of time alone, and yet she wonders why she ain't gettin' along with anybody. She claims that nobody gets her 'cause there's too many kids here. Well, look at me! I'm older, and I'm gettin' along fine. Maybe she should realize that it's not us; it's her.

<Leslie is shown walking back into camp.>

James: What's goin' on?

Leslie: I was just cooling off in the water. It feels nice.

James: Oh.

Leslie - CONFESSIONAL: I've got my work cut out for me. My best chance of staying is to align with the women and vote out one of the men. It's a long shot, but at this point, I don't have very many options, because I know those three guys want me out.

<James, Brook, and Aaron are sharing coconuts. >

Aaron: I wonder what Tikei's eating right now.

Brook: They're probably over there having a fish fry.

James: Too bad for them, we've got coconut.

<Brook laughs.>

Tikei - Day 4

<The tribe is gathered around the fire, where fish are frying in a pan.>

Tracy: That looks very good.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: After winning the reward challenge today, Jeff was able to catch some fish with the supplies we got. We were all very anxious to eat, because we haven't really had good food over these four days.

<Wanda is passing out pieces of fish.>

Ashley: Thank you Jeff!

Wanda: Jeff should get extra fish!

<Brian shows a look of question on his face and looks over at Jeff.>

Jeff: No, it's for the tribe. We should all get equal amounts.

Wanda: Well I don't mind giving you some of mine.

Jeff: No, you don't have to do that.

Brian - CONFESSIONAL: Wanda is a little naïve in this game. She's not really using her head in terms of playing it; she's trying to make everyone happy because that's just who she is. It's great for the rest of us, but isn't necessarily good for her. In the long run, you have to have more to offer than just being nice.

<Misty is shown licking her fingers.>

Misty: Thank you guys for sharing that with me.

Dave: No problem.

Misty: It was really good.

Dave - CONFESSIONAL: Having Misty here has definitely changed the way people act around here. We know that there's something significant about that bottle, and if there's a clue to an idol inside, each and every person wants it. So, we're all kissing her ass, hoping she'll give it to us. I'm guilty of it just like the rest of my tribe.

Tikei - Day 5

<Tina is working on a fire, as Wanda walks in with a bundle of firewood.>

Wanda: I brought you some more firewood.

Tina: Thanks.

Tina - CONFESSIONAL: Wanda and I are usually the first ones up, so we've been getting the fire started every morning.

Wanda: It looks like the sun's going to shine. It should be a good day.

Tina: I hope so.

Tina - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> Wanda and I are very close. We're together and lot and I really enjoy her company. I think it'd be weird to wake up one morning and not have her around.

Wanda: I don't think we'll have a challenge today, so we should just take it easy while we have the day off.

Tina: Go for a nice walk. <Tina smiles>

Wanda: That sounds like a good idea.

Wanda - CONFESSIONAL: I adore Tina. She's very sweet and I just love her to death. Out of everyone here, I would definitely consider her my closest friend, and I think it'd be great if her and I could end up in the end together. It's not all about winning for me. It's what I take out of the game spiritually that matters most.

<The rest of the tribe is now gathered around the fire.>

Wanda: Good morning!

Brian: You too.

Tina: Is Anthony still sleeping?

Brian: Yeah.

Tina: Anthony, we've got food!

<Anthony is shown sleeping.>

Tina: He can't hear me.

<Anthony turns over and looks at Tina.>

Anthony: What?

Tina: Oh, you are awake.

Anthony: Yeah.

Anthony - CONFESSIONAL: It seems like I'm always the last one out of bed every day. You know, it takes longer for me to get to sleep, so I sleep in longer than the others. I wouldn't really consider myself lazy; I'm just surrounded by a lot of hard workers, so I come across that way.

<Anthony, Tina, and Tracy are shown by the fire.>

Tracy: Tina and I are going to go get some water from the well. Do you want to come?

Anthony: No.

Tracy: Okay.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: Anthony does the least work around camp. If you ask Anthony to help with something, he's very reluctant to help. He will occasionally, but most of the time he'll just pretend he's too tired. It can be frustrating sometimes.

<Anthony is sitting alone by the fire. It goes out.>

Anthony: There goes the fire.

Rapa - Day 5

<Aaron and Brook are walking in the jungle. Aaron is carrying a machete in his hand.>

Aaron: There has to be bananas somewhere around here.

Brook: We just haven't found them yet.

Aaron - CONFESSIONAL: Our food situation is…well, we don't really have a food situation. We've pretty much been living off of coconut juice for five days now. We've seen crabs and stuff, but we can't eat them unless there cooked. And without fire, we can't cook anything.

Aaron: There's some!

Brook: Sweet.

Aaron: Here, lift me up and I'll chop some down.

<Aaron gets on top of Brook's shoulders and begins chopping down bundles of bananas. Several fall to the ground, then Aaron jumps off of Brook.>

Brook: This is great, dude.

Aaron: It's something we can eat.

Aaron - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> When we found the bananas, it was like finding gold. We were really pumped that we were going to have something other than coconut to eat. I know the rest of the tribe was happy to see what we brought home.

<Aaron and Brook walk into camp with the bundles of bananas.>

Aaron: Look what we found!

Leslie: Oh my gosh!

Angie: Food!

James: Finally somethin' other than those coconuts!

James - CONFESSIONAL: I've never been more excited over some bananas in my life! After livin' off coconuts for five days, it was a relief to have some actual food in out bellies.

<Angie is shown chewing a banana in her mouth.>

Angie: This is so good.

Aaron: Things are finally looking up for Rapa.

Rapa - Day 6

<The Rapa tribe is shown walking back into camp with smiles.>

Angie: We won!

Brook: We have immunity and we have fire!

James: Oh hell yeah.

Angie - CONFESSIONAL: The curse is gone. After winning today, I'm feeling so much better, and I feel like things are going to get better around here. We weren't looking good this morning, but now we're on top of the world!

<James is kneeling down trying to get a fire going.>

James: Let's get this started

<James strikes the machete several times, and a spark finally falls onto a pile of coconut husk. Brook is there to help keep it going. After a few seconds, they manage to have a solid fire going.>

James: All right!

James - CONFESSIONAL: Besides gettin' immunity, we got fire. Now that we got fire, all sorts of things are just gonna start happenin'. Rapa is going to be in good shape for now on.

Brook: It's been a great day for us. We won immunity, we won fire, and best of all, we've got Misty back.

Misty: Aww.

Leslie: We sure missed you.

Misty: I missed you too.

Brook - CONFESSIONAL: Today was finally the day that Rapa was able to be successful. We pulled it together and now we don't have to go to Tribal Council and vote somebody off. After having this feeling, I don't ever want to go back to losing.

Tikei - Day 6

<The tribe walks into camp with looks of disappointment.>

Brian: I'm exhausted.

Tracy: That looked pretty rough.

Anthony - CONFESSIONAL: My tribe lost immunity today, so now we have to go to Tribal Council. I don't think any of the men will be going anywhere, since we all outlasted the women in the challenge. We need the strength now.

Tina: I guess I'll get a fire goin'.

Wanda: Do you need any wood?

Tina: No, there's enough.

Tina - CONFESSIONAL: Coming back and being all sour and depressed about losing is not fun. Everybody's all pissed off, and it just makes camp a real cruddy place to be.

Anthony: Brian, can you get me a coconut? I'm thirsty.

Brian: You're closer to them. <Brian points to a pile of coconuts.>

Anthony: No I'm not.

<Tina is shown looking over at Anthony and Brian.>

Tina - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> I have to admit, Anthony has been getting no my nerves lately. I hardly ever see him moving. He's always asking people "where are these" or "can you get me this?" It's like, you've got arms and legs. Get up and get it yourself, I'm busy.

<Tracy now joins Tina by the fire.>

Tracy: So what are you thinking about tonight?

Tina: Well, I'm sorta thinkin' Anthony.

Tracy: Anthony?

Tina: He hardly does anything around here.

Tracy: Do you think he's the weakest?

Tina: I would say so.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: Tribal Council is always hard, because you never really want to vote someone out of the tribe. But tonight, we have to make a decision, and I think it's going to be a tough one.

<Tracy is now talking to Dave.>
Tracy: Tina says she's voting for Anthony.

Dave: Well, of course she is. She's not voting for Wanda.

Tracy: I mean, I think Wanda is our weakest.

Dave: No doubt about it.

Tracy: But, Anthony does do very little around camp.

Dave: I know work is important, but if you want to keep winning, then we have to keep Anthony a little while. Wanda was the first out today while Anthony stayed in it for over two hours.

Tracy: I know. It's just that I like Wanda a lot and would rather have her here than Anthony.

Dave: We all would, but in terms of the game, it's the best move right now.

Tracy: I get ya.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: The vote tonight is probably going to be between Anthony and Wanda. Anthony is very lazy around camp and doesn't do much, but Wanda is a little more of a detriment in challenges. Right now, I'm stuck because I like Wanda, but I do think we'd be better off without her in challenges. I'm having a hard time deciding between my head versus my heart.

<Brian is talking to Dave.>

Brian: It makes the most sense.

Dave: I'm gonna miss her, but in order to have a better shot at winning, I think Wanda needs to go.

Brian: Me too.

Brian - CONFESSIONAL: Wanda is probably one of the sweetest, nicest, most loving, genuine people on the planet. I love her to death, but in the game of Survivor, she's a target. I mean, she was first out of the challenge today; she's not very strong compared to the rest of the tribe.

Brian: I wish there was someone else, but there's not.

Dave: Nope.

Brian - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> I've been campaigning to vote for Wanda. I just think that right now, it's the best move for me and my tribe. I don't lose another challenge.

<Tracy and Tina are shown sitting by the fire.>

Tracy: I think the majority of the tribe is voting for Wanda.

Tina: Really?

Tracy: I'm sorry.

Tina: Well, you know I can't vote for her. I just can't.

Tracy: I know, and I don't really want to either, but it's in the tribe's best interest if we want to continue winning.

Tina: Have you talked to Dave?

Tracy: It sounds like he's feeling the same.

Tina: Man.

Tina - CONFESSIONAL: There's no way I could bring myself to vote for Wanda. Without her, I'd just be alone. She's someone I talk to a lot out here, and I couldn't imagine not having her around.

<Tracy is talking to Dave.>

Tracy: Tina's having a hard time with it.

Dave: I still don't think we should switch our votes.

Tracy: The only thing I worry about is that if we vote out Wanda, then you, me, and Tina could be next. We'll be voted off by Jeff, Ashley, Brian, and Anthony, and I don't want that to happen.

Dave: I haven't really thought about that.

Tracy: Well, if we vote for Wanda, then it's a possibility.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: I wouldn't actually mind keeping Wanda around. You know, with her, Tina, Dave, and I we'd be a majority. That put me in a better position and at less of a risk of being voted off.

Dave: If you can get somebody else to vote for Anthony, then I'll do it.

Tracy: Well, I might as well ask around. You never know.

Tracy - CONFESSIONAL: <continued> I have to come up with something that's best for me. And right now, I'm beginning to think that it means keeping Wanda around. Now I have to just convince someone else too. I've been able to pull of some big moves in the past, so anything could happen tonight.

<Most of the tribe is by the shelter, with their bags ready to go.>

Dave: Well, shall we?

Brian: Let's do it.

Wanda: I've never been to Tribal Council.

Brian: Trust me, it's not something you look forward to.

Brian - CONFESSIONAL: It'll be a hard vote tonight, but this is a game, and in order to make it further in the game, you have to make some tough decisions. I think everyone understands the situation, and hopefully all will go well. If not, then I'm in for a shocker.

Tribal Council - Tikei

<The camera shows a nighttime scene. Tribal Council sits on the water, surrounded by lit torches with their reflections in the water. A closer view is shown of the Tikei tribe getting out of their boat at a small dock. They then make their way to the Tribal Council area where Jeff waits for them. They stand, waiting for further instructions.>

Jeff Probst: Behind each of you is a torch. Go ahead and grab one and approach the flame. <The tribe grabs their torches and dips them in the central fire pit as Jeff continues talking.> As you all know, fire represents life in this game. When your fire is out, so are you.

<The tribe now takes a seat on eight wooden stumps sitting across from Jeff.>

Jeff Probst: You guys have been out her for six days now. For some of you, that's either more than or equal to the amount of time you lasted previously. Wanda, after not even being picked to play last time, how are you feeling now, after being in the game for six days?
Wanda: It's been a phenomenal experience so far. I was honored to be asked back, and I'm so glad that I was. It's been a very memorable experience so far, and I can't wait to see what the next thirty-three days has in store for me.

Jeff Probst: Dave, and Ashley, I want to ask about the update with you two. You have had your fair share of fights in the past.

Ashley: <sarcastically> Did we?

Jeff Probst: Dave, how are things going now?

Dave: Um, it's a new game, Jeff. We get along much better now.

Jeff Probst: Ashley, would you agree?

Ashley: Um, yeah. I don't have any problem with Dave. But, it's only day six.

<Dave is shown laughing and Ashley smiles.>
Jeff Probst: Let's talk about how you guys have done so far. You started off by winning the first two challenges; things were looking good. But you suffered your first loss today, and now you're at Tribal Council. Jeff, what do you think happened?

Jeff: I think we went into the challenge a little over-confident actually. We knew that the other tribe wasn't doing so well, so I guess we thought it would be an easy win. Go figure, now we're sitting here.

Jeff Probst: Tracy, how do you guys base your vote tonight, only six days into the game? Has talk of the vote been going on for a while, or has it just recently picked up?

Tracy: It's been brought up a couple times, but today it really started moving. We have a hard decision to make tonight. We have to decide whether we should vote for someone who hurts us more in challenges, or for someone who isn't pulling their weight at camp.

Jeff Probst: So work ethic is playing a factor in tonight's vote. Anthony, how are you pulling your weight?

Anthony: I know it's been brought up that I haven't been working a lot. But, compared to Dave, Tracy, Tina, and Wanda who are always working, of course I'm going to appear lazier than them; anyone would. I don't think I'm lazy at all.

Jeff Probst: Tina, how are you going to base your vote tonight?

Tina: You know, I value hard work above a lot of other things in this game. I'm not going to keep someone around who isn't pulling their weight, compared to other people who are always giving it their all at camp and at challenges.

Jeff Probst: Brian, if it was you tonight, would you be satisfied with what you've accomplished?

Brian: No way. I've gone through being voted off once, and it's not something I want to do again. I won't be 100% satisfied unless I win.

Jeff Probst: I'm sure none of you are looking forward to tonight, but it is time to vote. Ashley, you're up first.

<Ashley moves across the set toward the voting confessional. She is shown walking up to cast her vote. As she picks up the pen, the camera fades into a shot of Jeff writing down a name. He then folds it and places it in the urn. Next shown is Brian, as we walks to the confessional. He is shown writing down a "W" on his ballot. He then holds it up to the camera. It reads "Wanda".

Brian: I'm going to miss your lovely smile and your spirit around camp, Wanda. I wish there was a better move, but there's not. Take care.

<A view of Wanda is shown looking at Brian, before the camera returns to him as he folds his ballot and places it in the urn, then walks away. Next is Anthony. He is showing walking up to the confessional. He picks up the pen, and the camera then fades to view of Wanda folding her vote and placing it in the urn. A view of Anthony is shown, followed by a shot of the fire. Next, we see a hand writing "Anthony" on the piece of parchment. Tina is then shown holding up her vote.>

Tina: I couldn't vote for Wanda, so I have to vote for you. I'm sorry.

<Anthony is shown with a look of uneasiness on his face. Tina is then shown again. She folds her vote and places it into the urn. The camera fades to a clip of Dave putting the lid on the urn. He walks away. Next, Tracy is shown casting her vote. Anthony is then shown looking into the fire. Tracy holds up her vote, but the camera angle makes it unable to be seen.>

Tracy: At the end of the day, it's a game, and I have to play it. No hard feelings.

<Dave is shown with his hands under his chin as the camera returns to Tracy, who is placing her vote in the urn. She walks back to take a seat. The camera turns to Jeff Probst.>

Jeff Probst: I'll go tally the votes.

<As Jeff goes to tally the votes, an uneasy Wanda is shown, followed by a view of Tina with a frown on her face. A quick shot of the fire is shown, before a view of Anthony. The camera then shows Tracy up toward the voting confessional. Jeff Probst returns with the urn in his hands. He places it on a podium.>

Jeff Probst: 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. <Jeff reaches into the urn and pulls out a vote. He reads it; then turns it to reveal it to the tribe.> Wanda. <Wanda is shown as she nods her head.> That's one vote Wanda.

Jeff Probst: <Jeff reaches in and grabs a second vote. He reveals it to the tribe.> Wanda. <Wanda smiles.> Two votes Wanda.

Jeff Probst: Next vote: <Jeff grabs another vote. He reads it before he turns it toward the tribe.> Anthony. <Anthony is shown looking at Jeff.> That's one vote Anthony, two votes Wanda.

Jeff Probst: <He reaches into the urn and pulls out another vote. He unfolds it and shows it to the tribe.> Anthony. <Anthony is now shown looking more worried. Brian is then shown looking at Jeff.> We're tied; two votes Anthony, two votes Wanda.

Jeff Probst: Next vote: <Jeff reaches in for a vote. He reads it, then turns it to face the tribe.> Wanda L. <Wanda is shown dropping her head. She then looks up at Jeff.> Three votes Wanda, two votes Anthony.

Jeff Probst: <He reaches in the urn and grabs a vote. He quickly glances at the name, then reveals it to the tribe.> Wanda. <Tina is shown looking over at Wanda, followed by a view of Tracy looking at Jeff.>

Jeff Probst: Two votes left. <Jeff reaches in for the seventh vote. He opens it and reads the name to himself.> Second person voted out of Survivor: Second Chances: <Brian is shown nodding, before a view of a now teary-eyed Tina.> Wanda. <Wanda smiles at Jeff.> With five votes, that's enough. The last vote will remain a mystery. <Anthony is shown as he lets out a sigh of relief.> Wanda, you need to bring me your torch.

<Wanda squeezes Tina's hand before she gets up. She then moves toward her torch, grabs it, and approaches Jeff.>

Jeff Probst: Wanda, the tribe has spoken. <Jeff snuffs Wanda's torch as she nods her head.> It's time for you to go.

Wanda: It's been my pleasure. <Wanda turns and faces her tribe.> Good luck you guys. Go get 'em. <Wanda then turns and walks away from the Tribal Council area. Tina is then shown with a tear falling down her face. Dave then gives her a pat on the back, before Jeff is shown.>

Jeff Probst: By the looks of it, that vote was hard for some of you. This is just the beginning. Grab your torches and head back to camp. I'll see you tomorrow.

<The tribe gets up from their seats and begins moving out of the Tribal Council area, down to the dock where their boat awaits. The camera zooms out to show an aerial view of Tribal Council before fading to black.>

Episode 3 Clues:

• One survivor feels the loss of another after an emotional tribal council.
• As part of a reward, one tribe wins an item that helps them live through a massive thunderstorm, while the other tribe suffers miserably.
• After being kidnapped, one survivor makes a deal to share the clues to the hidden immunity idol.
• One survivor is blamed for the tribe's loss at an immunity challenge, and becomes even more vulnerable at tribal council.

Wanda's Final Words:

I have nothing to be sad about. This was a once in a lifetime experience that I got to live through twice. I'll never forget these six days with this group of people. I finally got to live my Survivor dream, and I'm walking away with a big smile on my face. I wish my tribe all the best, especially Tina; I really hope she wins.
