Challenges
Challenge: Body Slam
The castaways would, in private, answer a survey about their fellow tribemates. They would then have to guess whose name came up the most from the group. Each time a castaway guessed correctly, they would be given the opportunity to chop at a rope that held a weight above a statuette that represented another castaway. After three chops of the rope, the statuette would be smashed and that castaway would be eliminated from the challenge. The last castaway whose statuette was not smashed would win reward.
Reward: A trip to Jellyfish Lake to swim among stingless jellyfish with a loved one; selection of two additional castaways and their loved ones to share the reward
Winner: Alexis Jones (shared with Cirie Fields and Natalie Bolton)
Challenge: Shoot To Thrill
The castaways would take turns shooting a rifle at colored sake bottles. The first person who breaks all three of their bottles would win.
Winner: Erik Reichenbach

Final Words
| “ | Yeah, I didn't see that one coming at all. But it's a game so yeah, I'm not mad at all. I think I made my pop proud. I never lied once when I was here. I kept a level of integrity of who I am outside of this game. I'm rooting for my girl Nat! Not even a question. This is the hardest physical, mental, spiritual thing I've ever done. | ” |
