It's a Fickle, Fickle Game is the season finale of Survivor: Worlds Apart.

Challenges

• Reward
• Immunity (Day 37)
• Immunity (Day 38)

Challenge: The Home Stretch
The castaways will each race under a net crawl. They will then make their way to a table where they will slide tiles into a target. Once all the tiles are through, they will use a machete to transport those tiles over a teeter-totter and balance beam to the finish table. They will then sort the tiles into pairs. Three of the tiles will not match up. Those three hold the code to a combination that will unlock their box. The first person to unlock their box and raise their flag wins.
Reward: Advantage in the next Immunity Challenge, along with their loved one spending a day at camp with them. The winner would get to practice the Immunity Challenge the following morning, with their loved one guiding them.
Winner: Mike Holloway

Challenge: Going Blind
The castaways will be blindfolded in the center of a giant maze. They will race to find four medallions in the North, South, East, and West corners of the maze. There are guideposts to help them navigate. Once they find all four medallions, they must then find the Immunity Necklace. The first person to find the necklace wins immunity.
Winner: Mike Holloway

Challenge: Final Four-Titude
The castaways have to untie knots to open a gate and then race up a huge tower. When they get to the top, they will retrieve a key and then fly down a giant waterslide. They will then make their way through a multi-level obstacle course where they will use the key to release a bag of puzzle pieces. They will drop the bag on a table and head back up the massive tower to retrieve the next key. Once they have collected all three keys and bags, they will use the pieces inside to solve a lighthouse puzzle. The first person to get it right wins immunity.
Winner: Mike Holloway

Final Words

	Rodney	“	I wish I just got to the Final Three. It would've been a breeze. I would've easily won this game. And for this scumbag redneck to make me do a fire competition?

Trivia

Other

• This episode was the first finale to contain a Loved Ones Challenge.
• Mike Holloway ties the record for most individual Immunity Challenge wins, with five.
• This episode makes the first tie in the final four and first fire-making tiebreaker since "Say Goodbye to Gabon".
• In a rather interesting coincidence, the Final Three consisted of one representative from the original three tribes: Carolyn Rivera represented White Collar, Mike represented Blue Collar, and Will Sims II represented No Collar.
• According to Carolyn in a post-game interview, there were no opening statements made to the jury.
• In her jury speech, Shirin Oskooi incorrectly stated that Carolyn voted out every member of the jury, as Carolyn did not directly vote Joe Anglim out. However, one could say that her vote against Jenn Brown during that Tribal Council was part of her alliance's Split Vote plan, and Joe being the primary target of the alliance as a whole means that Carolyn possibly wanted to vote out Joe.
  • Dan Foley is the only jury member to vote for his same-collar representative, Mike, as the other Blue Collars voted for either Carolyn or Will, while the No Collars and the White Collars voted for Mike.

Episode Title

• The episode title is said by Mike Holloway at the Day 38 Tribal Council about the Final Tribal Council.
