Night 21 at Camp Forza. Faces are glum around the campfire as the players morn Joe's departure from The Game. Coach decides to liven things up by sharing the tale of his Amazon adventure. Dropped into the jungle by military helicopter, he kayaks his way down the Amazon River solo. Mano e' Mano. But he is not alone, and Coach is captured by a tribe of pygmies. They tie him up and commence to beat him with clubs. Somehow, he manages to escape in his kayak and paddles non-stop for two days till his hands are bleeding. NOBODY believes him! LOL!!!
Day 22 and Coach goes through his morning Tai Chi ritual while the others watch and ridicule him from a far. When he rejoins the tribe, Sierra openly makes light of him. This irritates Coach who decides that Sierra must go next after Brendan, "The Dragon". JT and Erinn bond while fishing. They discuss a possible alliance. Erinn is eager, having no real allies since Joe left.
It's Reward Challenge time. Divided into teams of three, they will throw balls to break tiles of the other teams. The team finishing with a tile still intact wins a white water rafting trip and a picnic. They will also pick one from a losing team to be exiled alone. Coach is exited, he wants to go rafting. Red Team is Coach, Stephen and Taj, White is Tyson, Sierra and Erinn, and the Black Team is Brendan, JT and Debbie. Red and White go after Black, first, smashing 2 tiles at start. But as the event progresses, things even up. Red Team is eliminating first. White and Black are down to their last tiles. Each catches a piece of their opponents, but fail to smash them. Brendan finally finishes off Whites last tile. They pick Stephen to be exiled. Coach is disappointed. Jeff tells Black Team their trip will be tomorrow.
At Exile Sand Dune, Stephen looks forward to some alone time. He's having trouble starting a fire, however. He's yet to start one all game. Finally he gets a spark going and is proud of himself. He'll live another day!
Day 23 and Black Team goes on their reward. They have a great time on the trip. After shooting the rapids, they wind up at a sand bar and find their picnic waiting for them. While Debbie takes a swim, Brendan and JT chat strategy. Brendan assures him that he'll take him to the end. Brendan is thinking of them being the Final Two.
Day 24 back at Camp Forva and Brendan didn't sleep a wink. He's been up all night plotting how to take JT to the F2. He talks with Sierra and tells her he wants JT as part of their Exile Alliance. She agrees. The plan is to take out Tyson, then Coach and Erinn. Brendan FINALLY chats with Taj about activating their Exile Alliance.
It's time for the Immunity Challenge. Each is tethered to a long rope that is snaked through a three-part obstacle course. The first three to get through it will then face off to snake their way through a three-level-high obstacle to win immunity. JT and Tyson jump off to an early lead. Coach and Erinn are close behind. Taj and Stephen go nowhere. Coach then gets stuck and Brendan quickly closes in on the leaders with Sierra right behind him. JT gets the first spot to the final round, followed by Tyson. Brendan edges out Sierra to win the third spot. The Final Round begins and is close with Brendan having a slight lead. JT gets hung up and Tyson catches and passes Brendan to win.
Back at camp, Stephen talks about how much fun he had in exile. Tyson does a head count to confirm the votes for the night. Four will vote to boot Brendan and three for Sierra, just in case Brendan plays his idol. Brendan talks with JT and Sierra about booting Coach. He then unfolds the plan to Taj. Stephen and JT chit chat about which way to vote? They believe they are in charge of The Game. Brendan tells Coach and Tyson that JT is still their target for the night. Coach believes he's in full control of The Game.
At Tribal Council, Erinn tells Jeff that Tyson is the camp clown. JT says that Coach tells the best stories and Jeff learns about the Amazon adven- ture. Coach confirms it's true and adds that he's faced death many times. LOL! Talks returns to strategy. Tyson thinks tonight's vote will be pivotal. Taj and Stephen say that the physical threats need to go early. Brendan admits to having an idol! It's time to vote. We see Brendan vote for Coach and visa-versa. Jeff gathers the ballots and asks if anyone wants to play an idol. Brendan doesn't. The vote is Coach 2, Sierra 3 and Brendan 4. Sierra and Brendan were the Coach votes. Tyson, Debbie and Erinn voted for Sierra, the rest boot Brendan. Coach is smiling as he slays the evil dragon.
SPOILERS: Sierra fights for her life. She tries to convince Tyson and Coach that she'll do whatever they tell her to.
