Minoris, Day 10


Carla addressed the tribe. "What just happened?"

Roxanne answered, "what happened is me and Taranza saved you. We knew Stealy had the idol."

Stealy asked, "how?"

Taranza replied, "you're not as smart as you think you are."


Roxanne

"Carla votes personally more often than strategically. If she knows if we're the ones who saved her, she might work with us down the line."


Majoris, Day 10


Elliot was talking to the rest of the tribe. "Will we ever win a reward challenge?"

Joyce ran in. "We're about to find out. We have a reward challenge."

"Already?" Lincoln asked.


Lincoln

"It's been less than 24 hours since the last immunity challenge. I was not expecting this so soon.


Reward Challenge: Day 10


Majoris and Minoris arrived at the challenge site, which featured two rows of podiums. Each podium featured a buzzer.

Lillith explained, "okay. Today's challenge is a simple one. I will ask a series of questions, not relating to any particular topic, just random trivia questions. The first person to buzz in will get to answer the question. Get a correct answer, eliminate someone off the opposing tribe. However, if you get a wrong answer, you will be eliminated. The tribe with at least one member standing at the end wins this: a 50-gallon water tank. This is more than enough clean water to support the entire tribe up to the merge. Majoris, you have one extra member. Who is sitting out?"

Lucca answered, "Kirby."

"Alright then. Everyone, take your positions."


Lillith began asking questions. "Question one: what is the 28th element on the periodic-"

Lucca immediately buzzed in. "Nickel."

"Correct."

"Taranza, you're out."

An impressed Lillith said, "question two: of the eight franchises represented this season, which is the newest?"

Lucca once again buzzed in quickly. "The Loud House, represented by Lincoln and Roxanne. It was released May 2, 2016."

"Correct."

Lucca smugly said, "Roxanne, you just lost to your own franchise."

Roxanne growled as she walked off.

Lillith asked, "How many of the remaining fourteen contestants are considered adults in their respective universes?"

Lucca buzzed in. "Myself, Joyce, Elliot, Kirby, Stealy, Taranza, Brawly, Coco, and Carla. That's nine."

"Correct."

"Goodbye, Coco."

"When did Survivor first air?"

Lucca answered quickly, "May 31, 2000."

"Corre-"

"Carla, you're out."

Lillith began to commentate, "Lucca is on fire! Only Brawly and Stealy remain for Minoris."

"Next question," Lillith announced, "In taxonomy, what category is more specific than Order?"

Lucca answered, "family, genus, and species."

Lillith mumbled, "I would've accepted just 'family' as the answer."

"Goodbye, Brawly."

Lillith asked, "okay. Among the sixteen castaways, what letter is first in the most names?"

Lucca answered, "R."

"Correct. Majoris wins reward!"

Majoris began to congratulate Lucca. "That was amazing," May cheered.

Lillith explained, "alright. Majoris, the water tank will be delivered to your camp. Minoris, I've got nothing for you."


Minoris, Day 10


Coco


"We just got destroyed in the reward challenge. I have no idea what to say. Lucca is just too dangerous in any kind of mental challenge."


Stealy


"Challenge over. Time to figure out how to stay in this game. The problem is, everyone hates me, but I just need a majority of them to hate Carla more."


Roxanne and Taranza were having a strategy meeting. Taranza asked, "we're voting out Stealy, right?"

"Duh. Who else would we vote out?"

"Just making sure."


Roxanne


"You don't need to make a shocking power play when the right move is so obvious."


Majoris, Day 10


"That was amazing!" Joyce celebrated, "way to go, Lucca!"

Lucca replied, "thanks, Joyce."


Lucca

"I try to be modest, but I'm honestly really proud of myself."


Joyce looked around. "Look. The water tank's here."

The entire tribe rushed over to the tank. There were seven cups next to the giant metal barrel. Lincoln was the first to get a glass.


After most of Majoris had left, Lucca noticed a piece of paper stuck to the barrel. She carefully peeled it off and read it.

Congratulations on winning the reward challenge. This scroll is an extra part of the reward, as it contains a map to the location of a hidden immunity idol! Note that the map is unlabeled, so you have to figure it out by comparing the map to landmarks at camp. A hidden immunity idol can be played on any tribal council up to the final five, and it nullifies any votes cast against its player.


Lucca

"I have a clue to a hidden immunity idol, a strong majority alliance, and I've proved my value to the tribe. It's never good to get cocky, but I feel pretty good about my position."


Minoris, Day 10


Stealy was sitting on a rock, lost in thought.


Stealy

"In order to stay in the game, I have to do something drastic quickly, and I think I have a plan. I have a strong suspicion that Carla could be transgender. If I can reveal that in the right way, maybe I could turn some of the, ahem, less accepting members of the tribe against her."


Taranza

"Stealy seems to be planning something, but I have no idea what."


Majoris, Day 11


Elliot woke up to heavy rainfall. He saw the entire tribe huddled up in the tent, hiding from the rain.


Elliot

"It's raining like crazy out. Hard to believe it was warm and sunny yesterday."


Ruby

"The fire's gone out and everyone's soaking wet. All we can do is sit down, in the cold, in our wet clothes. It's not fun."


Lucca left quietly.


Lucca

"This is a perfect oppurtunity to find that idol."


Lucca found a small alcove and hid below it. She consulted the scroll and looked around. "Okay. It should be around here."

Lucca looked around and spotted a hollow tree. She ran to it and looked inside. She then reached in and pulled out a small bag.

"That's a nice idol, Lucca."

Lucca turned around and realized that Elliot had been watching her.


Elliot

"Lucca has an idol now. I need to be extra careful around her now."


Lucca

"Elliot knows I have an idol. I would like to take him out, but I already promised to take out Joyce or Kirby next. If I change that up, I'll have to explain why. At least this way, it's his word against mine. I want this to be a secret."


Eventually, the rain stopped.


Minoris, Day 11


Stealy ran across the beach quickly, carrying a handful of clothes, laughing.

"What the hell are you doing?" asked a voice.

Stealy turned around and saw Carla.


Carla

"At this point, I'm not even surprised. I think that was Brawly's outfit? I'm not sure. I also have no idea what that guy's up to, and honestly, I don't care. I'm voting him out no matter what."


Stealy asked in shock, "Carla? How are you wearing clothes?"


Carla

"Oh, so I was the target. Cool. I'm beginning to wish I could vote him out twice."


Carla snarked, "because you didn't get near them. Now give Brawly his clothes back. Same with anyone else you stole from."


Majoris, Day 11


May wasted no time in getting the fire back up.


Lincoln

"That fire will help us dry off much faster. In fact, May had a much easier time with that than I did. While she's not that great in challenges, no one comes close to beating her at camp."


May

"We all have our roles in the tribe. My role is to help out around camp: tend to the fire, cook food, etc."


Minoris, Day 11


Brawly, now wearing clothes, confronted Stealy. "You have some explaining to do, buddy."

Stealy explained, "I wasn't targeting you. I was targeting Carla. You see, I think she's trans, so I wanted to expose her, and-"

Brawly sarcastically said, "oh. I was mad that you embarassed me in front of the whole tribe. But as long as you did it for bigoted reasons-"


Brawly

"Stealy only has two talents: thievery and making people want to punch him in the face. More often than not, they're linked.


Stealy

"Well, that backfired. Maybe I shouldn't make such a scene of this."


Stealy walked up to Roxanne. "Hey, Roxanne. Can I talk to you?"

"No."

Stealy continued, "should we could vote out Carla next?"

"No. Go away."

"Would it change your mind if I could prove she was trans?"

"No, it would not. Please leave."

Stealy begged, "please. If we can't unite against her, I'll go home."

Roxanne rolled her eyes and snarked, "wouldn't that be a tragedy?"


Roxanne

"I play a strategic game. If you want me to do something, you have to give me a logical reason. 'She's trans' and 'I don't want to go home' are not logical reasons."


Stealy explained, "look. Two members of the tribe hate me, so-"

Roxanne interrupted, "I actually think the correct number is five."

Stealy took the hint and stormed off.


Taranza and Roxanne were talking. Roxanne stated, "I can't believe Stealy is relying on transphobia in a majority-LGBT tribe."

Taranza asked in confusion, "majority?"

"Yeah. You, Coco, and Carla."

Taken aback, Taranza replied, "uh... I'm actually not-"

"You're not? Huh? Sorry, I guess. Not that it would be a problem if you were, but-"


Roxanne

"I have never been more embarassed in my life."


Majoris, Day 12


Joyce

"The rain is gone, and our morale is back."


"Challenge time!" Lincoln shouted, running from the treemail spot.


Immunity Challenge: Day 12


Lillith explained, "today's immunity challenge is simple. Out in the ocean you will see ten poles, five on each side. Each tribe will send one member to be tied to each of their five poles. Then a sixth member will paddle a rowboat to 'rescue' each of their five 'shipwrecked' allies. First tribe with all members on dry land wins immunity."


After the tribes arrived, Lillith asked, "Majoris, you have one extra member. Who is sitting out?"

Majoris talked amongst themselves before Lucca answered, "me."

"Okay. Each tribe, select your rowers."

Majoris chose Elliot, whereas Minoris chose Carla.

"Survivors ready? Go!"


Elliot and Carla took off.

Immediately, Lillith began to commentate. "And they're off. Carla developing an early lead. She's already working on untying Roxanne. Elliot catching up. Elliot quickly unties Kirby just as Carla finishes with Roxanne. They're neck and neck as Roxanne and Kirby swim to shore. Carla seems to be a faster rower, but Elliot seems to be better at untying."

Carla reached the post where Taranza was tied. Shortly after, Elliot reached Lincoln.

"Elliot unties Lincoln in amazing speed. He begins to row off as Carla struggles with Taranza."

Carla finally got Taranza free, but Elliot had already reached Ruby.

"Elliot frees Ruby. Just two more for Majoris. Can Carla make up enough ground?"

Carla quickly rowed over to Stealy. Stealy began to resist being untied.

Carla told Stealy, "I need to untie you. Stay still."

Stealy retorted, "I don't know. If you fail this challenge, they'll vote you out."

Lillith continued commentating, "Carla struggling with Stealy. Elliot frees May."

Elliot reached Joyce. Carla finally got Stealy untied. "Stealy is free, but can Carla catch up?... Apparently not. Joyce is free. Elliot just has to paddle to shore."

"And he does! Majoris wins immunity!"


Majoris, Day 12


May shouted, "that was amazing!"


Lincoln

"We just won our third immunity challenge. At this rate, we could merge 6-4 or even 7-3. That would really boost our odds.


Minoris, Day 12


Carla was talking to the whole tribe. "Stealy actually fought against me untying him. We would have won, or at least gotten closer, if it weren't for him. We just keep getting new reasons to vote him out."

Stealy retorted, "oh yeah! Don't try to pin this on me. Just like you did with Brawly's clothes."

Roxanne added, "no, Stealy, that was clearly you. I saw you running with those clothes."

Taranza backed Roxanne up. "I was talking with Carla shortly before that happened. She didn't have time."


Roxanne

"Stealy is getting desperate."


Tribal Council


"Hello, Minoris," Lillith said, "this is your thir time here. Roxanne, how does that feel?"

Roxanne answered, "not good. we have no chance of merging at a majority, and we're probably going to merge at a minority. Strategically, this is really bad, regardless of who goes home."

"Carla, who's in danger?"

Carla answered, "Stealy. He doesn't have an idol, he's done nothing but upset everyone, and he cost us the immunity challenge. I'd be shocked if he only gets four votes."

Lillith asked, "Stealy, is that true?"

Stealy replied, "yes. I just have to hope enough tribemates vote sensibly."

"Coco, what does voting sensibly look like?"

Coco replied, "voting out Stealy. He's terrible for the tribe."

Lillith said, "okay. Time to vote. Brawly, you're first."


Voting


Brawly

Brawly held up a ballot with "Stealy, for obvious reasons" written on it.

"For obvious reasons."

Coco

Coco held up Stealy's name.

"No comment."

Roxanne

Roxanne held up Stealy's name.

"No idol, no lifeline, no reason to not vote you out."

Carla

"My vote is for Stealy, just like the last two tribal councils. Third time's the charm."

Taranza

Taranza held up Stealy's name. He didn't make any comment.

Stealy


"I'll go tally the votes."

After returning, Lillith explained, "once the votes are read, the decision is final, and the person will be asked to the leave the tribal council area immediately."

"I'll read the votes. First vote: Carla. Second vote: Stealy."

"Stealy. That is two votes stealy, one vote Carla."

"Stealy. Final vote, fourth person voted out: Stealy. You need to bring me your torch."

"Dang it," Stealy said, as he brought over his torch.

Lillith extinguished the torch. "The tribe has spoken. It is time for you to go."


Stealy

"I can't say I didn't expect that. I wish I could've stayed in a bit longer. Oh well, at least I didn't go down without a fight. Goodbye."


The Tally

Stealy (5): Brawly, Carla, Coco, Roxanne, Taranza

Carla (1): Stealy


Next time:

A true alliance forms in Minoris.


Carla

"It feels like the setup to some weird joke. A child star, a weird alien bug thing, a surfer, and the coolest person ever form an alliance in Survivor."


And Elliot takes an aggressive playstyle.


Elliot

"I told Lucca, 'if you play that idol now, you're going home the next tribal council. No questions asked.'"
