Challenges

Reward

Challenge: Folklore
Jeff Probst will tell the castaways a story about Cambodian history. They will then race into the jungle with torches to a series of five stations where they will have a question and three answers. When they think they have a correct answer, open the jar and grab a wrapped medallion and head back to the start. At the start, open the wrapping and if they get a gold medallion they have answered correctly. If they open a wooden medallion, then they have answered incorrectly and must toss it in the fire and go back to the station and try again. The first person to answer all five questions correctly wins reward.
Reward: Trip to a local resort.
Additional Stipulation: Unknown to the castaways, one of the correct answser's wraps also contains a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol.

Voting Confessionals

Stephen used the "vote stealer" advantage granting him two total votes. Stephen stole Joe's vote rendering him unable to cast a vote at Tribal Council.

“	(voting for Abi) With my vote, I'm going to vote for Abi. (voting for Joe) And with Joe's vote, Joe will be voting for Joe. This has been 29 days coming so I just want to take a second and marinate in it. Thank you.	”
—Stephen

Final Words

“	So clearly I was blindsided. I thought I had locked up the split but I think Spencer must have turned and, you know, good on him. I regret splitting the votes-- we could've all voted for Joe. But I went out big. You know, this is a Survivor first. I played the "vote steal" and it's been awesome. You know, I've had-- I've had tremendous highs, I've had terrible lows, and I'm grateful for both.	”
—Stephen Fishbach

Trivia

Life at Ponderosa

Stephen Fishbach gets his customary post-game weigh-in where he lost 20 lbs. While on his way to Ponderosa, Stephen says he is grateful to the fans for voting for him to play a second time. When he arrives at Ponderosa, everybody gives him a hug except for Andrew Savage. Stephen takes a shower and then joins the others to eat. When talking with Ciera Eastin, Stephen is shocked to learn from her that Spencer Bledsoe voted against him.

The next day, Stephen says he felt guilty for betraying people he befriended in his previous season and it took him quite some time to get over it. Kass McQuillen sympathized with him and understood his pain and let him have his space. Later that day, he and Kelly Wiglesworth baked cookies and enjoyed each other's company.

Other

• Because of Stephen Fishbach's advantage, this was the first time that a castaway was rendered ineligible to vote outside of re-votes and the vote at the Final Three on Day 38.
• With Stephen's elimination, every castaway on this season has been voted out of Survivor at least once.
• This is the first time this season Joe Anglim was vulnerable at Tribal Council for elimination. This is also the first time that Joe survived a Tribal Council after the merge without immunity.

Episode Title

• The episode title is said by Kelley Wentworth, in reference to the high-stress situation of retrieving the idol from under the tribe shelter.
