Survivor - Forty-Fifth Season

Clock's ticking, heart's racing.

Boom. The hidden immunity idol, baby.

Previously onSurvivor...

No.

The thorn in my thumb, as usual,

is Bruce.

You're gonna be divided

into two groups of six.

Two people will be going home.

-Oh, what? Wow.

-Okay. Sure. Yeah.

I don't want to be told what to do.

I want to playSurvivor,

and I want to winSurvivor.

Kendra wants me to vote for Sifu, but

Bruce is the better move for my game.

I'm very torn.

Bruce has been my struggle,

and so, when I choose to take him out is probably going

to be the most important move for my game.

It is time to vote.

Seventh person voted out of Survivor45--

Sifu.

The tribe has spoken.

I trust him more than I trust you.

Julie. We're tied.

Two votes Kaleb, two votes Julie.

Eighth person voted out of Survivor45

and the first member of our jury: Kaleb.

The tribe has spoken.

Hey, guys, we made the jury.

Yeah, buddy!

Wow.

We got back to camp.

It's kind of a mixed atmosphere

because everyone's very happy they made the jury.

But eliminating Sifu was a little bit tougher

on the heartstrings than expected.

You know, I actually felt bad for the guy.

That was such a hard send-home, especially with somebody

who's a little wild card, but...

Emily and I were in lockstep,

which is great to see because it means

she'll be a core reliable ally

I can trust for at least a few days out here.

But the downside of

the Tribal Council was giving Bruce a symbolic victory,

letting him survive.

I don't want him to have symbolic victories,

and I plan to take it away at first opportunity.

I kind of do.

I think there is some anticipation

to find out the results

of the following Tribal Council.

Everyone expects it to be Kaleb, but

we only have half the picture right now.

Anybody home?

Kaleb went home.

Tonight,

I wanted to push wicked hard to keep Kaleb here.

I-I trusted Kaleb.

But it was ridiculous to ask Katurah to go to rocks.

And I shouldn't have voted Julie.

But I'm still in the game.

I think I can make something work.

I just can't be

as reckless as I was tonight.

-Kaleb was going home no matter what. -Yeah.

If you would have voted party lines,

then it would have been no harm, no foul.

Jake became a liability tonight.

He put his emotions into it. Like,

bro, what are you doing?

Like, you're following a dead horse to water.

You're never gonna get there.

Things now are ... so we need

to go back and make some adjustments.

-Yeah. -Okay.

At Tribal,

I wanted to make a move.

I didn't want to dogpile on Kaleb.

That's not a move.

That's following the herd, and I'm not gonna do that.

Ten people aren't all at the top.

Why would you upset the status quo? It's 'cause

you need to better your position.

I don't know.

I'm kind of sucking atSurvivor right now.

Hopefully, I stop sucking. That's the goal.

First and foremost, that was not a personal thing whatsoever.

I understand

-this kind of, like, puts us at odds, game-wise, -Right.

and that's fine.

At Tribal Council,

I got two votes my way.

One from Kaleb, totally expected.

One from... Jake,

and not expected.

It was more of a "Can I get Kaleb to stay?"

rather than "Can I get Julie to leave?"

-Right. -I understand I lied to your face all day.

-And I get that. -Yeah, you did.

I know.

-Was I convincing? -Yeah.

-Not anymore, though, right? -Right.

There's absolutely no way I'm working with Jake going forward.

There's no way I can trust him.

He lied to my face and I believed him.

He's scary to me.

What are we gonna do moving forward?

I think that lines have been drawn.

It's kind of feeling like old Belo versus

old Reba now.

This is a fun game, isn't it, Julie?

Regardless of anything, it's fun, right?

-Wait till you see your name. -I know, right?

-You tell me how fun. -

-Buddy, it won't be me. -No, I know.

It'll happen. It'll happen.

Good morning.

I don't know.

Down to six-four. Girls, baby.

It's, like, overwhelming.

I don't know. Maybe we should talk.

It's six-four right now.

This could be our opportunity for these six badass women

to start taking out some guys.

Hey, tell me about tacos.

Tacos are really good, man.

Mushrooms, dude, avocado, guac

and refried beans.

Mozzarella or cheddar?

You think they're smart enough to be scared?

I'd really like to start picking them off.

I would love a woman's alliance,

but it's gonna be tricky because Dee and I

are still four strong with Drew and Austin,

who I trust 100%.

Yeah.

Yeah. Oh, my God. Oh, man.

-And then it's like... war. And his freaking...

But if we get him out, it has to be a blindside, though.

And there has to be the most shocking blind...

Like, we have to be in love with him five seconds before.

Yeah, we really do.

He's definitely very dangerous.

There's six women who want to get Bruce out.

This is perfect for me because I am fed up.

Bruce has just been dragging my game down this entire time.

Like, the fact that he's tied to me, it's because

Bruce keeps telling people he's close to me.

Bruce has been trying to control not just me

but multiple other players this whole game.

And you don't want to keep living

with someone who is inhibiting your gameplay

in any way.

So, if these girls want

to help me take out that target, wonderful.

-What the hell's going on here? -Whoa!

-What? -Boat!

Oh, hell, no. We got to go.

Boat!

What do you think of this, dude?

Are we doing a challenge here?

What is that? Is that benches?

Oh, my God. I'm sweating.

Oh, my God, they're coming out. Wait.

As much as I want to be optimistic in this game,

all of these twists and turns that we've had so far

have always had a catch.

Oh, this is not good.

-This is not good. This is not good.

This is bad. This is bad.

Why is it so ominous?

I've never seen a table like that onSurvivor.

I got a nice amount of Survivorknowledge

and Survivorhistory up here,

so I'm trying to think about prior seasons.

Was there ever a table on a boat?

I got nothing.

This is sick, Jeff.

Oh.

No.

Hey!

What?

This is so fun.

I have no idea what I'm looking for.

Bamboo shoots

look the same color as the trees.

I don't know what path to take, but I'm running.

Here.

Once I found my first one, I'm like,

"Okay, I know what I'm looking for."

It's game on, baby. It's game on.

Oh.

Thank you, Lord!

So cool! -This is so fun.

I'm thinking to myself, like,

"And I'm old as hell. I ain't running around
