RED TRIBE - Day 22
Link to the camera. "It's been a little over two weeks since we've been camped out and a few days since we merged into one tribe. It's going to be hard now to play the game because now, we will need to move out of our tribal alliance and start playing for ourselves. It's very hard. I love Zelda and Impa very dearly. It's very hard for me to deceive them."
While Link, Zelda, and Impa were playing Gin Rummy, Jeff approached their shelter.
"Okay guys," said Jeff. "You have one more reward challenge but it's not an actual challenge but a time to reflect on your camping trip in Hyrule, about all the luxories you take for granted every day before this experience, before the battles with the elements. I want you three to spend the entire day thinking about it, for tomorrow will be your last and final immunity challenge."
Link speaks to the camera. "I learned a lot camping out in Hyrule. I have lived in Hyrule ALL my life but I had never had to rely on nature and everything else. I never realized how scarce water can be until now, except for the fact that we are now located near Lake Hylia."
Zelda speaks to the camera. "I realized, that in real life, you can have all the privacy you want. In a situation like this, someone hardly has ANY personal space. Now I put a value on my privacy."
Impa speaks to the camera. "Well, I learned a lot out here. I learned that people still need to be mothered every once in a while. I've never had to rely on nature to survive until now. Now I realize how hard it is to rely on nature to survive."
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE - Day 23 - Sacred Forest Meadow
"Okay guys," said Jeff. "This is a physical challenge but you are not going to be doing anything. There are three tree stumps. You will stand on those tree stumps for as long as your legs can stand it. The last person standing wins immunity. If your legs get tired, you may squat, but you cannot sit down."
The three of them stood on their designated tree stumps. One hour. Two hours. Three hours. Finally, about four hours later, Zelda gave up.
"It's between you guys now," said Zelda. "My legs are aching like crazy!"
"Since you gave up," said Jeff. "Here's a plateful of cookies."
"Oh thank you! These are great!"
"Anyone want any cookies?" asked Jeff. "You gotta get off your tree stump if you want cookies."
"Jeff," said Link. "DON'T PLAY WITH MY EMOTIONS!"
Jeff said nothing but laughed as Link squatted down for the millionth time to rest his legs.
Five hours pass. Six, seven, eight. Finally, Link gave up since it was getting dark.
"Impa," he said. "Immunity is yours." He struggled to get down off his tree stump after 9 hours of standing.
"Congratulations, Impa," Jeff said. "Here's the immunity talisman. I will see you guys tomorrow night at tribal council."
TRIBAL COUNCIL - Day 24 - Temple of Time
"It's great to see you guys again," said Jeff. "But to be fair this time, only Impa will be voting. Since voting for you two will cancel out, it's only fair for Impa to cast the vote this time, guys. Impa, go cast your vote."
Impa went to the Survivor confessional, cast her vote and went back to the tribal council.
"Okay," said Jeff. "The third person to be voted out of the Red Tribe and the final member of the jury is......Zelda."
"Oh my gosh!" cried Link. His jaw had hit the floor.
"Zelda," said Jeff, extinguising her torch. "The tribe has spoken. Impa, Link, you may head back to camp and I will see you guys here tomorrow."
ZELDA'S FINAL WORDS
"I think I may know what motivated Impa to vote for me. Maybe it was because she caught me kissing my husband while we went for that swim one time. In any case, she's still my nanny and I love her to bits. I wish the both of them the best of luck."
