It's Night 14 and Raro Tribe returns from Tribal Council. Though Stephenie got voted off, Adam voiced his opinion that Cristina was too bossy. This upset her and once back at camp, the sparks flew. She was offended by Adam's comments, and early signs of his contempt for her. It seems he passed the salt to her in a cold fashion. BRRRRRRR! Now, Cristina feels vulnerable. BTW, kudos to The Evil One, Mark Burnett, for the new style of showing a quick segment prior to the opening credits. It wets the appetite!
Day 15 and Ozzy catches more fish for Aitu Tribe. Jonathan admires his skills, but now sees Ozzy as a threat once The Game becomes individual in nature. Tree-mail announces a challenge. Everyone assumes it's for a reward of food. Cao Boi wants to bring along the Immunity Idol. He likes carrying it and feels one with it's spiritual powers. Jonathan argues that it's not a good idea to bring it as it may be seen as gloating to Raro Tribe. Cao Boi gives in but is unhappy with the decision.
Turns out it's a Reward/Immunity Challenge! The winning tribe gets a feast of lamb and gets to watch the other tribe at Tribal Council. However, BOTH tribes will vote someone off tonight!!! A secret twist will be revealed at TC. The challenge is a physical one. Three members from each tribe are to cling to posts for dear life while a team of two members from the other tribe wrestle them off and drag the victim across a finish line. First tribe to get all three of the opposing tribe's members across wins. Aitu fields Sundra, Ozzy and Candice at their posts, and Raro has Jenny, Nate and Cristina on theirs. Cao Boi sits out as he's the extra man for Aitu. Jessica and Becky drag Jenny across Aitu's line first. Jon and Yul then go after Nate while Candice puts up a fight against Raro's Rebecca and Pavrati. Aitu maintains it's lead as Jessica and Becky wrestle with Cristina while Adam and Brad drag Ozzy across. Rebecca and Pavrati do get back into the event to take on Sundra, but by then, Becky and Jess drag Cristina across the line. Aitu wins!!!
Aitu is gleeful as they walk back. They won a tough challenge over Raro which is a physically stronger tribe. But once at camp, the politicking begins as they still must vote one member off tonight. Cao Boi shares another of his wacky dreams with Yul. Something about needing six credit cards somewhere in an alternate universe. Cao Boi determines that the deeper meaning of his dream is to pit Jonathan versus Candice against each other tonight and cast three votes against each. If either has the hid- den Immunity Idol, they will be forced to play it. Yul, of course, knows who has the idol, himself! But Yul appears to go along with Plan Voodoo, as Cao Boi calls it.
Meanwhile, over at Camp Raro, Cristina does some fancy foot work and schmoozing to save her hide. She asks Brad for a second chance and promises to mend her ways. Cristina then works on Pavrati and then Adam. When Nate is approached by Cristina, he proposes they target Jenny. Nate is worried about a post-Merge Asian voting block. Over at Aitu, the same is voiced by Cao Boi as he tells others of Plan Voodoo, but in his view, it is the post-Merge Caucasian voting block all must fear. Becky and Sundra appear to be also concerned and are suspicious of Jonathan.
1st Tribal Council begins with Aitu. Jeff wonders why Cao Boi brought the Immunity Idol, since he didn't request it. Ozzy tries to explain Cao Boi's spiritual affection for the idol. Yul adds that Cao Boi is the tribe's shaman- cheerleader. Yul then fingers Jonathan as the tribe's leader. Jon tries to worm his way out of the title, declaring that he doesn't bark orders and such. Besides, half the time he's on Exile Island! Cao Boi then explains how he will make his big chess move tonight and expose the hidden immunity idol. It's time to vote. Cao Boi votes to boot Candice, Jessica votes to boot Jonathan, as their part of Plan Voodoo. But the rest gang up and give Cao Boi the heave-ho! Plan Voodoo backfires!!! Jeff has Aitu move over to the Jury Bench and beckons in Raro Tribe.
The 2nd Tribal Council begins with Jeff serving Aitu dinner. Raro looks on and drools, especially Nate. Adam is not hungry, but he is frustrated by today's loss and pays his old girlfriend, Candice, a compliment. Brad says that the tribe is trying it's best. Jenny recounts the previous night's spar- ring between Adam and Cristina. Adam says that Cristina does work hard around camp, but her personality clashes too often with the rest. Jeff then reveals the secret twist of the evening. Aitu Tribe will get to kidnap one from Raro. The kidnapped member will be safe from the voting AND get a plate of food. Aitu chooses Nate, and Jeff explains that Nate will remain with Aitu till the next challenge. Jeff then shoos off Aitu so Raro can vote. Brad and Cristina vote to boot Jenny, the rest boot Cristina.
SPOILERS: Jessica is upset that she was left out of the decision to boot Cao Boi. Nate causes stress at Aitu. Ozzy's stock breaks the 12,000 mark by catching numerous fish.
