The show opened with the Drakes coming back from last episode’s Tribal Council. Rupert was enraged by the fact that someone had voted against him. Jon admitted it was him and Rupert yelled at him for several minutes. Jon whined a lot about how he did it for the tribe.
Then we went to the Morgan camp the next morning. They all sat around complaining about how hard life was and how hungry they were. Ryan tried to catch a fish but it got away.
Back at the Morgan camp, the ribe recieved their mail but decided to have a snack before going to the challenge. Jon was fixing a coconut for toasting (which people had said they wanted) but Shawn was arguing they didn’t have time and should eat the coconut raw. They got into a screaming match .
The tribes went to the challenge and the six people who had been voted off (Nicole, Skinny Ryan, Lill, Burton, Michelle, and Trish) walked out wearing purple buffs. Jeff said they were there to compete to get back in the game. The challenge was going to be a series of cages. The players had to dig themselves into cages, untie the other players on their tribe, and build a pole to pull keys into their cage.
The “Outcasts” won the challenge. By the rules of the challenge, both the Drakes and the Morgans would have to vote off a member and the Outcasts would vote two of their members back in. Plus the two returned players would automatically be immune in the next tribal council.
Back at the camps, Osten came out of the blue and said he wanted to quit and go home. Because nobody else wanted to be voted off they all told him he was doing the right thing, even though it was apparent they all thought he was a wuss. At the Morgan camp, it was clear that Rupert, Crista, and Sandra’s alliance would choose which of the other two was going to go. They even got together to discuss it while Shawn and Jon stood off in the distance and watched. Sandra suggested it would be funny to make them both argue for their survival. The other two laughed and thought it would be fun. Shawn argued he shoudl stay because Jon was more treacherous. Jon argued he should stay because Shawn never did any work around the camp.
The Morgans went to TC. There was no shade put on the situation about who was allied and whose head was on the block. They voted and Shawn was kicked off. Then the Drakes came for their turn. Again the situation was out in the open. Jeff asked Osten if he really had said he wanted to quit. Osten said yes and tried to make it sound like a good idea. Jeff then asked all the other players if they’d ever quit. They all said variations of “I’d never do it in a million years, but I think it’s a great idea for Osten to do.” Jeff then broke tradition and simply asked all the players one by one if they planned on voting for Osten. When they said yes, he called Osten up put out his torch and told him “go home”.
Then we got a “to be continued next week” for the Outcast tribal council.
