Challenges

• Reward
• Immunity

Challenge: D.I.Y. Ladder Tree Golf
In a Do-It-Yourself Challenge, the Tikiano tribe will be divided into two teams, the red team and the black team. Every member of each team must toss a bola to a pegged pole with numbers, which corresponds to a certain number of points (from one to five). After all members have thrown bolas, the team with the higher tabulated score wins.
Reward: A barbecue feast on another island
Winner: Red Team (Alicia Rosa, Jay Byars, Kat Edorsson, Tarzan Smith, and Troyzan Robertson)

Challenge: When It Rains, It Pours
Castaways will be standing barefoot on a small wooden perch, while one of their hands will be chained to an overhead bucket of water. If the contestant moved enough, the bucket will drop water, dousing the player, eliminating him or her. At random points during the challenge, Jeff Probst would tempt the castaways with food items. The last person standing wins immunity.
Winner: Chelsea Meissner

Voting Confessionals

	Jay	“	(voting against Alicia) I told you not to step down.	”

	Troyzan	“	(voting against Kim) Sorry, Kim. You were the strongest player. Had to see you go.	”

	Kat	“	(voting against Troyzan) I really don't want to do this, but I don't have a choice. I love you, monkey man.	”

Final Words

	Jay	“	That's the game for you. You never know what's going to happen out here, you can never tell exactly who's telling the truth. You make the best decisions based on what you know, go with your gut as best as possible. I had a great time and wouldn't trade it for the world. I tried to play this game as honest as possible, and now I'm on the sidelines. I had an eerie feeling coming in here tonight, but I definitely didn't really see myself going home. Congrats girls, y'all got me.	”

Trivia

Behind The Scenes

• Jay reveals he struggled at the Immunity Challenge because he has sores and broken bones and wrist.
• Alicia regrets bailing out at the Immunity Challenge over a bowl of candy.

Life at Ponderosa

Jay learns lost around 30 lbs. Upon arriving at Ponderosa, Jay is welcomed by Jonas and Michael with a chocolate cupcake. Jay explains how the vote went down. The three jurors agree that Troyzan could be next to go.

Michael privately approaches Jay just as he is about to shower to ask him if he voted for him at the previous Tribal Council, in which Jay sheepishly confirms.

The next day, after gaining 9 lbs. since he arrived at Ponderosa, Jonas is glad to lose 2 lbs. after working out.
