Episode 10
Believe Me
Previously on… Survivor…
Giselle found a note that said "you found me, I'm yours." Taking the chance at grabbing it, she found it to be a note to Masadora. While she was there, she earned an advantage that allows her to block a player's vote.
While she was away, Leone had it out with Leafa. The two went their separate ways, with Leone joining the Student-Teacher Alliance, and Leafa joining the Pro Hunters. Everything was set up for an epic showdown – Leone, Hinako, Giselle, and Yukari, up against Leafa, Lucian, Bisky, and Killua.
But that plan went to heck when Leone and Leafa made up with each other. The two of them rejoined each other on the same alliance again. As a result, the Pro Hunters decided to turn on Leafa and try to get her out. They figured that they were safe, with Lucian having immunity and Killua playing an idol.
But the Student-Teacher Alliance went with Bisky as their vote instead. Lucian refused to give his idol to Bisky, who ended up open to being voted out, which she was. She became the third member of the jury. Seven are left. Who will be voted out tonight?
Day 28
Yorknew Tribe
(Giselle, Hinako, Killua, Leafa, Leone, Lucian, Yukari)
Killua is stunned after the previous night's vote.
"I can't believe Bisky is gone," Killua says. "She and I had such a great alliance. Lucian was selfish not to play that idol on her. Now I've got to pick up the pieces. I've got to start scrambling."
So, he decides to talk to Leafa and Leone.
"I know we haven't gotten along," Killua says. "But at this point, it would behoove you to work with me."
"And how?" Leone replies.
"It's rather complicated, but here goes," Killua explains. "The Student-Teacher Alliance is solid. Those two are together for good. Lucian is a free agent; we have no idea where he goes. As for me, I can join you two and Hinako, and we can make Final Four together. All we have to do is avoid Lucian's idols."
"That's the trick, isn't it?" Leafa says. "Personally, I'm not convinced. Why should we trust you after you've been gunning for us since Day One?"
"Believe me," Killua says. "This will work."
"So, Killua comes to us with this plan to suddenly work with us," Leafa says. "That's funny, because he just voted for me. And from the very start of the game, he's been gunning for us. I don't trust him one bit. He's a snake."
"If the Big-Breasted girls would get their heads out of their chests, they'd realize that I'm right," Killua says. "If they keep Yukari and Giselle around, those two could team up to get them out. And if they stick with Lucian, he'll turn on them at any moment, with a couple of idols to spare. These girls would be morons not to work with me."
Lucian, meanwhile, is still willing to work with Killua, as the two talk later in the day.
"Everyone's gunning for you," Lucian says. "They went after Bisky, now they're gonna get you."
"And whose fault is that?" Killua says. "You could have prevented this all by giving Bisky your idol!"
"I want these idols for myself, thank you very much," Lucian says. "They ensure me of Final Five. But if you want, I can work with you."
"And how?" Killua says. "The two of us can't do squat."
"Au contraire," Lucian states. "We can join the Student-Teacher Alliance. They still like me over there. If we form a group of four, the Big-Breasted Girls got nothing."
Killua thinks about it for a moment. "Well, I can't argue with that," he says. "But I want to make sure I'm making the right choice by going with you. You've got to give me something to make me trust you."
Lucian laughs. "Sorry. You're not getting anything from me."
Killua simply sighs.
"I don't trust this Lucian character at all," Killua says. "All he wants to do is hoard idols for himself. Heck, he may find another few idols and be immune all the way through next season. He doesn't realize that in order to build up trust for the jury, he's got to be generous. Instead, he's being very selfish."
"All these Survivor players these days don't play their idols on themselves," Lucian says. "They're absolute morons. Either they get voted out with an idol in their pocket – sometimes even two – or they play them on somebody else and completely waste them. I'm playing it smart. I'm keeping them for myself, and I'm using them any vote I'm not already immune."
Meanwhile, Hinako is still whining about being lonely.
"Hina wants to see Bro-bro!" Hinako cries. "Hina will quit if she doesn't get to see Bro-bro soon."
"Little Hinako, relax," Leafa says. "Squeeze Mr. Teddy Bear a little tighter. You're going to make it!"
"No! Hina wants to go home!" Hinako says.
"This is turning into a dilemma," Leafa says. "Hinako is a sure vote with Leone and myself. But if she quits the game, then we're in some trouble. The Student-Teacher Alliance could easily pick us off. We need to keep her around."
Meanwhile, Giselle and Yukari spend the day looking for another advantage.
"We gotta find something," Yukari says. "Check every tree. That's where they usually hide them."
"Don't forget the bushes and the rocks," Giselle says. "Look all over."
"Giselle and I are obsessed with finding another advantage," Yukari says. "The producers have got to keep on giving them to us, because we're such fun characters. You know how it goes. Russell Hantz just so happens to find three idols. That's not a coincidence."
"Come on, cameraman!" Giselle says. "Point your camera toward the immunity idol like you always do! That's the surefire way to find an idol."
But the two of them end up unable to find anything.
"I don't know where they're hiding these things, Giselle," Yukari says.
"Yeah, they ought to put them in places where we can find them easier!" Giselle says.
"I still have this block-a-vote advantage," Giselle says. "I can use it to block anyone's vote, but whose vote would I want to block? I can't figure that out quite yet."
Badlands
(Jasmine, Loly, Orihime)
Jasmine and Orihime are out of energy after having to be on the run from Loly's attacks nonstop. Fortunately for them, Loly has expended all her energy as well, allowing the two girls a time to relax.
"It feels like a whole bunch of wasted energy; Captain Unohana can heal us but she can't help me catch my breath," Orihime says. "I'm absolutely exhausted. I've come so far, but I almost feel like quitting now."
"After coming so far, there's no way I'm quitting now," Jasmine says. "Loly isn't allowed to kill us, that's the only rule here. So, as long as she obeys that rule, I know I can be healed by Retsu and medical and I'll be back to tip-top shape. I really want to win this game! I know it's a longshot for someone to come from the Badlands and go on to win the game, but I'm going to do my best to be the one!"
Yorknew Tribe
(Giselle, Hinako, Killua, Leafa, Leone, Lucian, Yukari)
That evening, for the first time since very early in the game, it begins to pour down rain. As a result, the fire goes out, and the players become very cold.
"Hina's freezing!" Hinako complains.
"We're all cold here," Leafa says. "Hug Mr. Teddy Bear."
As Hinako hugs Mr. Teddy Bear tightly, Giselle and Yukari begin tearing apart one of the hammocks.
"What in the heck are you doing?" Killua asks.
"We need blankets!" Yukari says. "There's not enough to go around for all of us."
"Yeah, at the Pokémon League, I never have to struggle like this!" Giselle complains.
Lucian shakes his head. "Just shut up and stay in the shelter. We'll get through this."
"It's obvious that these nitwits Giselle and Yukari can't be trusted," Lucian says. "I'd hate to even have to vote with them. Of course, that's possibly what I'm going to have to do. This really sucks."
"Hina is so c-c-c-cold!" Hinako says. "Mr. Teddy Bear is getting wet from the rain blowing into the shelter. Hina just wants to see Bro-bro."
Day 29
Yorknew Tribe
(Giselle, Hinako, Killua, Leafa, Leone, Lucian, Yukari)
Early that morning, the rain has finally stopped. Yukari is still cold, though, so she goes out to make fire. Giselle, who couldn't sleep due to the cold, follows her.
"Hey, want to help me look for an idol?" Giselle says. "I'm bored."
"We gotta get fire first," Yukari says. "I'm sick of freezing."
Yukari whacks the machete at the flint, not making any progress.
"You're really bad at that," Giselle says. "Let me try."
Giselle grabs the machete and finds herself to be just as hopeless at making fire.
"I knew you couldn't do it!" Yukari says. "Give that thing back to me!"
Yukari begins whacking again. Her form is so terrible that she's not even making sparks. Meanwhile, all the noise she is making is waking up the other players.
"Hey, what the *#$% is going on over there?" Lucian asks.
"It looks like the Student-Teacher Alliance is trying to make fire," Killua states.
Leone yawns. "Leafa and Hinako are still sleeping," she says. "I'm gonna go over there and get 'em to be quiet."
So, Leone walks over to Yukari and Giselle, who are proving to be the most incompetent people in Survivor history at making fire.
"You guys really dunno how to make fire?" Leone says.
"Oh, I know!" Giselle says. "I'm just not at the top of my game today. You know, there are times that even a Pokémon League champion like myself has an off day."
"How about you, Yukari?" Leone asks.
"I thought you just slash this machete at the flint," she says. "Like this."
Leone jumps back as Yukari nearly slices off one of her fingers.
"Somebody's gonna get killed," Leone says, grabbing the machete off Yukari. "Here's how it's done."
Leone begins working with the machete and the flint, and within a couple of minutes, she has a fire burning.
"Wow, how did you do that?" Yukari wonders.
"Silly, as an assassin of Night Raid, this is something we gotta be able to do!" Leone says. "Now, keep it down, we don't want Hinako waking up crying."
"Sometimes you need an expert to show 'em how it's done!" Leone says. "Yukari and Giselle are absolute duds when it comes to survival skills. In a way, Giselle is the opposite of a certain president. Giselle has great book smarts but no survival smarts. That president is a book moron, but he's got great survival skills. Yukari? She's got no brains, no brawn. She's hopeless."
Reward Challenge
(Yorknew)
"Come on in, guys!"
The seven remaining players enter the reward challenge area.
"You guys ready to get to today's reward challenge?"
"Of course!" Yukari shouts.
Jet snickers. "Well, that's just too bad, because there's not going to be one."
"Huh?" Giselle responds.
"No, instead of a challenge, you're going to get… a little love."
Everyone starts cheering and celebrating. Yukari and Giselle hug each other in delight. Hinako drops to the ground in tears of joy.
"You made it!" Leafa tells Hinako. "You're going to get to see your Bro-bro!"
Hinako simply hugs Leafa's leg, as she cries happily.
"Let's bring out the first loved one," Jet says. "Leafa, here's your cousin Kirito."
Kirito comes walking in, and he waves his hand.
"Hey, Suguha!" he says.
Leafa sees him and rushes over to him and glomps him. "I'm so happy to see you!" she says, as her breasts squeeze against Kirito's face.
"Kirito is a former player of the game," Jet says. "He played in Survivor: Rivals, finishing in 17th place as the fourth person voted out."
"I did a little better than you," Leafa teases Kirito as they finish their hug.
"Okay," Jet says. "Next up is Tatsumi, a friend of Leone's."
Tatsumi jogs on out, and Leone immediately rushes over to him and hugs him tightly. Like Leafa, she squeezes Tatsumi's face between her breasts.
"How've you been?" Tatsumi asks.
"Oh, just fine!" Leone replies. "I'm playin' a good game. That girl there's a big reason why."
She points over to Leafa, who smiles and waves.
"Next up," Jet says. "Here's Minamo Kurosawa, a colleague of Yukari's."
Minamo walks in to shouts of "Nyamo!" by Yukari.
"I honestly cannot believe I am out here," Minamo tells Yukari, as the two embrace.
"I know! You actually took days off from school to come visit!" Yukari replies.
"That's not what I meant," Minamo says with a sigh. "I can't believe you actually made it this far!"
"What's the surprise?" Yukari replies. "My class beats yours at the school festival every year!"
Minamo sighs in annoyance.
"Our next loved one… Gon Freecss!"
Gon comes running out to Killua, who gives him a high five. The two begin laughing and joking with each other.
"This is so cool!" Gon says. "I hope I have the opportunity to play this game someday!"
"You'll be good at it," Killua replies. "It's not too different from being a Pro Hunter."
"Next… Giselle, it's your boyfriend Joe."
Joe rushes out, going over to greet Giselle.
"You've made it a long way again," Joe tells Giselle.
"Yeah, yeah, it's no surprise," Giselle replies. "After I've won the million here, I'll have so much money that I'll never have to move a muscle again. Just sit in bed and watch TV all day."
Joe rolls his eyes, but then Giselle leans in close and kisses him.
"I love you," she says.
"I love you too," he replies.
"And how lucky you are that I love you! How many other boys will ever have the chance of touching the lips of a ten-time Pokémon League champion!"
Joe laughs, while Jet gets serious.
"Little Hinako, it is finally time for you to see your Bro-bro," Jet says.
Hinako becomes hysterical as Wataru Minakami comes running out.
"BRO-BRO!" she screams, leaping into his arms.
"Nice to see you, sister," Wataru says. "Nice to see you."
Hinako snuggles in Wataru's arms and nearly falls asleep.
"Hina is so happy! Hina could just fall asleep in Bro-bro's arms!"
Jet smiles. "This is one of the most touching moments we've ever had with loved ones. But we're about to follow it with one of the most disturbing moments in the history of loved one visits, as we are down to Lucian. His loved one is none other than… Queen of Sinnoh, Her Majesty, Cynthia Celestic."
Cynthia marches in with a stern look on her face. Lucian watches her in fear, shaking as he sees her. By the time she has made her way over to him, he has dropped to one knee, looking down at the ground.
"Well, boy, you've managed to make it this far," Cynthia states. "But you do know what happens if you don't make it to the end."
"Yes, I understand, my queen," Lucian replies.
"I shall have your head mounted right next to Sabrina's on my palace wall."
"I know, my queen."
"Very well then. Don't come back to me unless you have that million-dollar check."
"Of course, my queen."
The loved ones take their spots next to the players.
"All right," Jet says. "You guys ready to get to today's reward challenge?"
"Yeah!" Yukari yells.
Jet laughs. "Well, there's not going to be a reward challenge!"
Everyone gasps.
"No, instead, we are going to have the Survivor Auction."
The players all cheer, but Jet motions with his hands to quiet down.
"This is the classic Survivor Auction," Jet says. "Only that at this Auction, only the loved ones will participate. The rest of you will watch and have to stay silent. Your loved ones will do all the bidding, and you'll just have to hope that they make the right decisions."
He then motions over to a nearby bench.
"Players, take your spots on the bench. You'll get to watch the Auction from afar, with no control over what goes down."
The players all sit down on the bench.
"As for you, loved ones, come on over here and grab your credit cards. Each one has 500 Woolongs on it. Woolongs are virtually useless outside of this game, so I suggest you bid as much as you can. Bidding will be in 20 Woolong increments."
The loved ones grab their credit cards and take their seats on the stumps facing Jet.
"Welcome to Trader Jet's," Jet says. "First item, will remain a mystery."
"200 Woolongs!" Minamo shouts.
"300!" Tatsumi shouts.
"What the heck, 400!" Minamo says.
"400 to Minamo," Jet says. "Going once… going twice… sold!"
Minamo then walks over to Jet and swipes her credit card on his Square reader.
"Let's find out what you won," Jet says.
He unveils the item to be a note.
"Go on and read the note," Jet says.
Minamo opens up the note and begins to read. "Congratulations, you have just bought yourself out of this Auction," Minamo reads. "Hand your credit card over to someone else."
She looks over at the other loved ones, then hands her credit card to Gon.
"Gon now has a credit card with 100 Woolongs to go along with his 500 Woolongs he already had," Jet says. "Minamo, go take a spot on the bench next to Yukari."
Minamo frustratedly heads over to the bench, where Yukari laughs at her.
"Next item, a chocolate milkshake from Chick-fil-A!" Jet announces.
"100 Woolongs!" Tatsumi shouts.
"200!" Gon shouts.
"320!" Wataru exclaims.
"320 to Wataru! Going once, going twice, sold! Hinako, come over here and enjoy your chocolate milkshake!"
"Thank you, Bro-bro!" she says. "You can have some too!"
Jet pulls out a pair of straws, and the two of them enjoy the milkshake together.
"Next item, spaghetti and meatballs!"
"120!" Kirito shouts.
"200!" Tatsumi shouts.
"340!" Kirito yells louder.
"400!" Tatsumi yells.
"500!" both of them yell at the same time.
"Okay, okay," Jet says. "Since you both bid 500, you have two choices. You can pick rocks to choose who gets the meal. Or, you can choose to share the meal."
"Sure, let's share it," Tatsumi says.
"Why not?" Kirito says.
Jet swipes their cards, then hands four forks over to the two boys. "Go over with Leafa and Leone and enjoy this meal."
The Big-Breasted girls look overjoyed to eat the meal alongside Kirito and Tatsumi.
"Next item, will remain a mystery."
"100!" Gon shouts.
"200!" Joe yells.
"200 to Joe. Going once, going twice… sold to Joe! Come over here and see what you got."
Joe goes over to see the item, which Jet unveils to be an framed, autographed photo of himself.
"Congratulations," Jet states. "We give one of these out every season, and you are the lucky recipient of this photo of myself."
Joe groans, grabbing the framed photo off Jet and handing it over to Giselle, who frowns as she takes it off him.
"Next up: a big-ticket item! This is for an advantage in the next immunity challenge!"
"All 600!" Gon yells.
"Gon has 100 Woolongs thanks to Minamo handing her card to him, so he gets this advantage," Jet says. "Come on over here, Gon."
Gon walks over to Jet, who hands him a rolled-up note of paper.
"This goes over to Killua, who may not open it until tomorrow's immunity challenge."
"Got it," Gon says, as he tosses the paper over to Killua.
"Next item will remain a mystery," Jet says.
"100!" Joe shouts.
"180!" Wataru yells.
"All 500," Cynthia says coldly.
"Well, there's no beating that!" Jet says. "Come over here and swipe your card, Queen Cynthia."
Cynthia walks elegantly over to Jet and swipes her card.
"Let's see what you got," Jet says.
Jet reveals a piece of paper, which Cynthia picks up and reads.
"Congratulations, you have won a trip to Masadora," Cynthia reads. "Take your loved one and head on out for Masadora."
Lucian looks astonished. "You mean, Queen Cynthia gets to come with me to Masadora?"
"Hey, I never said anything about your loved ones going home," Jet says. "In fact, everyone's going to get to spend the night with their loved ones back at camp, and you'll get to spend the night with Queen Cynthia at Masadora."
Everyone celebrates upon hearing this news, giving high-fives to each other and hugging their loved ones.
"And with that… this Survivor Auction is… over!"
Yorknew Tribe with Loved Ones
(Giselle, Joe, Hinako, Wataru, Killua, Gon, Leafa, Kirito, Leone, Tatsumi, Yukari, Minamo)
The players celebrate with their loved ones upon coming back to camp. Yukari stuffs her face with rice, while Minamo scolds her.
"You've got to save some for the rest of your tribe!" she says.
"Oh, come on, it's time to celebrate!" Yukari replies.
A little later, the players separate from each other into their respective alliances, and begin talking strategy with their loved ones. It's Kirito, Tatsumi, Leafa, and Leone strategizing in one group.
"So, you two are attached at the hip?" Tatsumi asks.
Leone looks over at Leafa and chuckles. "Hey, we weren't always on the same page!" she says. "But yeah, we're together again. We had a minor spat over Siesta's ouster, but we're over that now!"
"She's right," Leafa says. "And she was right about Siesta. We could have saved her, but I got too greedy, and it cost Siesta her spot in this game. But once we cooled down our tempers, we found that our only chance at survival is with each other."
"How do the current alliances look?" Kirito asks.
"Well, there's Leone, Hinako, and myself," Leafa answers. "We teamed up with the Student-Teacher Alliance for the last vote."
"Student-Teacher Alliance?" Tatsumi says.
"Yeah, that's Giselle and Yukari," Leone says. "Those two are bonkers! Flat-out crazy! Absolutely nuts! Off their rockers."
"That sounds like a certain president I've heard of," Kirito comments.
"Well, anyway, we got a voting bloc with them!" Leone says. "And we plan on taking out Killua or Lucian next."
"But Lucian has an idol," Leafa says. "Two of them, actually. So, we've got to either flush them out, or play Survivor: Russian Roulette."
"How about you join the Student-Teacher Alliance as a voting bloc, then split your votes between Lucian and Killua?" Tatsumi says. "You three put a trio of votes on Lucian, and the Student-Teacher Alliance puts two votes on Killua. Then the only way they survive is if Lucian gives his second idol to Killua."
"But in that case, it's still Survivor: Russian Roulette," Kirito says.
"Hey, it's better than turnin' on each other!" Leone exclaims. "I'm all for it!"
"The strategy that we hammered out with our loved ones is easy," Leone says. "We split the votes against Killua and Lucian, and force 'em to either both play the idols or go home. If they both play 'em, well, then it's Survivor: Russian Roulette, and we just got to accept the results."
"I'm not exactly sure if Tatsumi's strategy is best," Leafa says. "What if Lucian wins immunity? What if Killua wins immunity? What if Giselle and Yukari don't want to vote with us? There are a myriad of possibilities that could screw things up for us. We have to be careful we're not getting overconfident."
Meanwhile, the Student-Teacher Alliance is having their own strategy session.
"We're in great shape!" Yukari says. "Giselle and I have cruised through this game all the way to here. Now we're so close to the million dollars!"
"Oh, dear," Minamo says. "I can't imagine what you'd do with a million bucks."
"As if I need any more money!" Giselle exclaims. "I'm already rich beyond belief from winning all those Pokémon League championships. But I'd gladly take even more money."
Joe sighs. "Giselle, you've got to stop counting your chickens before they hatch. You may not even make it to the next vote if you're not careful. How are you two going to beat the other five?"
"We've got a voting bloc with the Big-Breasted Alliance as well as Hinako," Giselle replies. "That's good enough."
"But what if they turn on you?" Joe says.
"Yeah, they could easily team up with Lucian and Killua, and suddenly you two are on the outs," Minamo says.
"Would you please stop trying to be a backseat driver in my Yukarimobile?" Yukari says. "I know what I'm doing, Giselle knows what she's doing. We're not imbeciles."
"I can't believe Nyamo wants to run my game her own way," Yukari says. "We're doing just fine on our own. We know exactly what we need to do to continue on in this game."
Meanwhile, Gon and Killua are talking up big-time strategy.
"Okay, this is how it goes," Killua says. "With this advantage you got for me, I end up winning immunity. Then I vote along with Lucian, who uses his idol."
"And who do you go after?" Gon asks.
"I say Hinako," Killua says, as he points over to the girl who is playing games with her brother on the beach. "She's so adorable that everyone's going to want to give her the money. I simply can't let that happen. I've been trying to get her out since Day One, and I've faced nothing but obstacles. But now is the time to finally pull the trigger."
"You think you'll win the challenge?" Gon says.
"Of course!" Killua says. "I'm very athletically fit. There's no way I'm going to lose if I have an advantage on everybody else. This should be easy as pie."
"I know you can do it," Gon says. "After all, you're a Pro Hunter!"
"Gon's encouragement is what's helping me get through this game," Killua says. "He's cheering me on every step of the way. When I go to that challenge tomorrow, it's going to be tough, but I'm strong enough that I should win it."
As the sun sets, Hinako and Wataru are inseparable.
"It's so good to be with Bro-bro," Hinako says. "This is what makes Hina happy. Hina wishes she could spend forever with Bro-bro, right here on this beach."
Day 30
Masadora
(Lucian, Cynthia)
Jet pounds on the hotel room door, then begins yelling.
"You guys are thirty minutes late!" he shouts. "Any more, and I'll throw you out of this game!"
"It's open!" Cynthia's voice calls.
Jet grabs the door handle and pushes the door in. What he sees causes him to quickly close the door.
"Get on some clothes and get down here," Jet says. "I expect you in the marketplace no later than ten minutes from now."
"Ten minutes? That's enough time for some more-" Cynthia says.
"You heard me," Jet breaks her off.
About ten minutes later, Cynthia and Lucian appear in the marketplace, with Lucian out of breath.
"Lucian, are you okay?" Jet asks. "Does medical have to come look at you?"
Lucian gasps for air. "I'll… be… okay," he says. "Being on the bottom is tough."
"It certainly is," Jet says. "If you're on the bottom in this game, you have no power, and you're basically begging your opponents to drag you along. But I am offering you a chance to get off the bottom. Pick a size of advantage you'd like to go for, Small, Medium, or Large. The bigger the advantage, the less chance you have of winning it. Then you'll pick a Troopa shell, and you'll get to find out whether you've won the advantage, or lost your vote."
Lucian looks over at Cynthia. "Which one should I go for, my queen?"
"Go with the Medium one," Cynthia replies.
"Very well then," Jet says, and he mixes up the Troopa shells. "You have a 50-50 shot of winning. Go ahead and pick one."
Lucian grabs a shell, then shakes it open. Out comes a plushie of some sort. Lucian's eyes light up.
"It's Kurodo, the third immunity plushie from Survivor: Seireitei Forest," Jet states. "Congratulations, Lucian, you now have yet another idol. Now let's get you two back to camp."
"Getting this plushie now guarantees myself Final Four," Lucian says. "All I have to do is use one idol per Tribal Council for the next three, and I'm sure of making it that far. I'm starting to get optimistic that Queen Cynthia won't have my head after all."
Yorknew Tribe with Loved Ones
(Giselle, Joe, Hinako, Wataru, Killua, Gon, Leafa, Kirito, Leone, Tatsumi, Yukari, Minamo, Lucian, Cynthia)
Lucian comes back from Masadora and draws Killua and Gon aside.
"Look at what I got," he says, showing him another plushie.
"Another one? Wow!" Gon exclaims.
"Stick with me, Killua, and I'll keep you safe," Lucian states.
"Okay, I will," Killua replies.
"I don't trust Lucian as far as I can throw him," Killua says. "This guy is clearly playing me. Yet I don't have much options. The Student-Teacher Alliance is too far gone, as is the Big-Breasted Alliance. And I want Hinako out. I guess I have no choice but to trust Lucian for the time being."
Leone looks over at Leafa as they lie in the shelter with their loved ones. "Hey, I can't believe they let our loved ones stay with us overnight!" she says.
"Isn't it awesome?" Hinako breaks in.
"It is," Leafa says. "But something about it makes me feel uneasy. Like there's some sort of twist in the game upcoming that we don't know about."
"You never know when Survivor's going to pull out the rug from under your feet," Leafa says. "While it's so nice to get to spend quality time with Kirito for two days, I wonder why they're being kept around."
Immunity Challenge
(Yorknew)
"Come on in, guys!"
The players along with their loved ones enter the immunity challenge area.
"You guys ready to get to today's immunity challenge?"
"Absolutely!" Yukari exclaims.
"First things first, I will take it back. Sit!"
Lucian goes crashing to the ground. Cynthia grabs the Immunity Beads of Subjugation and tosses them to Jet.
"Thank you. Once again, immunity is back up for grabs. For today's challenge, you will climb through four sets of obstacles, all pointing in different directions like an 'X.' There will be a station beyond each obstacle, where you will have to untie a bag of puzzle pieces. Once you've gotten all four bags of puzzle pieces, you'll bring them back to the starting line, where there's tables for you to unload your puzzle pieces and solve a fire puzzle. First person to finish, wins immunity, safe from tonight's Tribal Council, cannot be voted out. Losers, Tribal Council, where someone will be the eleventh person voted out of this game and the fourth member of our jury. Before we draw for spots, there's a twist."
Everyone gasps as Jet gives them an evil smile.
"For the first time in Survivor history, your loved ones will do the immunity challenge, and you will not participate," Jet says. "Your entire game may rely on how well they can navigate through this massive challenge. All you can do is cheer and watch."
"Hey, what about my advantage?" Killua breaks in.
"Open up that piece of paper and read it," Jet replies.
Killua pulls out the piece of paper, unties it, and unrolls it. "One of your bags of puzzle pieces will already be at your table, so you will only have to gather three bags."
He then gives a high five to Gon.
"So, Gon will only have to get three bags in this challenge. As for the rest of you – Minamo, Wataru, Kirito, Tatsumi, Joe, and Queen Cynthia – you'll have to get all four bags. The winner of this challenge wins individual immunity for their loved one, as the last thing you get to do with your loved one before going home. I'll give you a minute to strategize, and then we'll get started."
The loved ones line up at the start.
"For immunity! Loved ones ready? Go!"
The seven loved ones take off in different directions on the X. Gon goes to the up and left one, while Wataru and Tatsumi take the up and right one. Cynthia and Joe go for the down and right one, and Kirito and Minamo take on the down and left one.
"Gon with very little trouble, as he's taking the path of least resistance!"
Gon quickly gathers the first bag, which is really his second bag. Cynthia is next to reach a bag, with Tatsumi following.
"Got to get all four bags!"
Gon runs into Cynthia as he tries going down another part of the X. Cynthia angrily shoves him to the ground, then steps on him as she hurries along.
"Gon!" Killua shouts.
"Hey, no violence allowed!" Jet yells. "Any more, and I'll throw you out of the challenge!"
Minamo gets her first bag, followed by Kirito and Joe getting their first bags. Wataru is really struggling through his part of the obstacle course. Cynthia quickly moves on to getting her second bag, and Tatsumi is right behind her in getting his second bag.
"Tatsumi doing pretty well in this challenge!"
Almost immediately, Cynthia kicks Tatsumi in the back.
"Everyone hold up!" Jet screams.
The other loved ones all freeze in place.
"Queen Cynthia, you are out of this challenge. This is not the first time you've been thrown out of a challenge."
"And it won't be the last," Cynthia taunts Jet. "Because you know you want me back on a future season."
"That's a discussion for another time," Jet says. "Everyone else, continue the challenge!"
Gon quickly grabs another bag, leaving himself with just one bag to get. Joe grabs his second bag, while Tatsumi gets his third bag. Kirito then gets his second bag, and Minamo is next to get her second bag. Wataru is finally at his first bag.
"Wataru really stinking it up at this challenge!"
Kirito gets through the obstacles in front of his third bag, and he grabs it. Minamo gets her third bag shortly afterward, while Joe trips on an obstacle and falls down. He bounces up and gets his third bag, but he's lost a lot of time, especially to Gon, who now has all his bags.
"Gon can now start working on his puzzle!"
Gon gets back to his table, where he starts untying all his bags of puzzle pieces. Tatsumi grabs his fourth bag and heads toward his table. Kirito and Minamo are close behind.
"This is anyone's challenge right now!"
Gon starts putting together his puzzle, but he is having early problems. This opens the door for Tatsumi, Kirito, and Minamo. Joe finally grabs his fourth bag and is headed back to start. Wataru is still stumbling around the obstacle course, only on his second bag.
"This is a hard puzzle! It's got a steep learning curve!"
All five players at their puzzle station are having a hard time with their puzzles. Wataru keeps on going, getting his third bag.
"You can't give up! Keep on working!"
But as Jet says this, a couple players start to figure out the puzzle. They are…
…
…
…
…Kirito and Tatsumi.
"Kirito and Tatsumi close to solving! Who will finish first?"
…
…
…
"Jet!" Kirito shouts.
"Kirito thinks he has it!" Jet exclaims. "And… he… does… NOT!"
"I got it!" Tatsumi yells.
"Tatsumi thinks he has it!" Jet shouts. "And… he… does! And that's it! Tatsumi wins immunity for Leone!"
Gon punches his puzzle in frustration, while Killua looks forlorn. Leone rushes over to Tatsumi and squeezes her breasts up against his face.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" she tells him.
The loved ones then go back to the bench where the players are seated.
"Congratulations, Leone," Jet says. "These are for you."
He puts the Immunity Beads of Subjugation around her neck.
"Tatsumi, you did your loved one proud. And now, it's time to say goodbye."
Tatsumi hugs Leone, and the other loved ones do the same.
"I'm going to miss you, Bro-bro," Hinako tells Wataru.
"Remember my advice," Minamo says to Yukari.
"Yeah, yeah," Yukari replies.
The loved ones then head on out.
"I'll see you tonight for Tribal," Jet says. "You can head back to camp."
The players head out in a different direction than the loved ones, going back to camp.
"I'm in deep trouble tonight," Killua says. "Lucian doesn't want to give me an idol. That's not going to help him if he makes it to the Final Three. I've got to somehow convince him to give one up."
Yorknew Tribe
(Giselle, Hinako, Killua, Leafa, Leone, Lucian, Yukari)
Killua's begging to Lucian is all in vain.
"You've got to give me an idol, just one," he tells him.
"Sorry," Lucian replies. "I'm only using idols on myself."
"But you have to understand, if we both use one tonight, we flip the game on its head!" Killua says. "Then you won't even need an idol!"
"Oh, you always need one," Lucian says.
"Are you planning on winning this game?" Killua asks. "This game respects big moves. Make a big move by giving me an idol, and you'll be more apt to get jury votes. Otherwise, you're going to end up as a Final Three goat."
"I'd rather be safe than sorry," Lucian says.
"There's no breaking through the Lucian wall," Killua says. "This man is stuck in his ways. He's not budging on the idols. I've got to somehow figure something else out."
Leafa, Leone, and Hinako are solid on their vote.
"We're all voting Lucian," Leafa says. "The Student-Teacher Alliance is voting Killua. We're playing Survivor: Russian Roulette here."
"Yeah, I'm not a big fan of it, but what else can we do?" Leone says.
"Bro-bro told me to vote with you two," Hinako says. "He said that Hina can trust you two."
"That's very nice of him to say," Leafa says.
"Yeah, we're just a couple of girls trying to win a million bucks!" Leone says. "But we'll keep you around as long as we can."
"I want to be careful about keepin' Hinako around too long," Leone says. "If she makes the Final Three, she wins. And that would be a heartbreak!"
"Bro-bro has given Hina the strength to go on in this game," Hinako says. "Hina is going to vote with Leone and Leafa because Hina trusts them."
Yukari and Giselle, meanwhile, have other plans.
"Are we voting Lucian, like the Big-Breasted Girls want us to?" Yukari says. "Or are we trying something different?"
"Does it matter?" Giselle replies. "We're safe no matter what. I can even block someone's vote if I want to."
"That won't be necessary," Yukari says.
She then looks over at the autographed photo of Jet that Joe "won" for her at the Auction.
"What a piece of junk," she says.
"Yeah, I know," Giselle says. "In fact, I'm going to use it for firestarter."
She carries the picture over to the fire. As she is about to fling it in, a rolled-up piece of paper falls out.
"Wha-?"
She drops the picture into the fire, then scoops up the paper and heads back to talk with Yukari.
"Hey, Teach!" Giselle says.
"Yeah, what is it?" Yukari says.
"I think we just got ourselves yet another advantage."
Tribal Council
(Yorknew)
The seven remaining players take their torches into the Tribal Council area. They set them down, then take their seats.
"We now bring in the members of our jury. Ragyo Kiryuin, Siesta, and, voted out last Tribal Council, Biscuit Krueger."
The three jury members walk in and take their seats.
"Hinako, you of all people were most excited to get a little love. How much fun was that to spend time with your Bro-bro?"
"It meant everything to Hina!" Hinako exclaims. "Hina loves her Bro-bro so much! Hina got to hear about the other eleven sisters and how they are doing. It was very fun for Hina!"
"As for you, Lucian, your loved one, Queen Cynthia, cost you immunity tonight by getting thrown out of that challenge."
"That's her prerogative," Lucian replies. "She can do whatever she wants – she is, after all, the Queen of Sinnoh."
"As for you, Leone, you're immune right now thanks to your loved one Tatsumi winning the challenge for you. How do you make it up to him, now that he's done something so good for you?"
"Oh, I know ways!" she laughs. "He's a great guy, that Tatsumi. I had no doubt that he'd figure out that puzzle. He knows what he's doin'!"
"Leafa, Kirito came up just short. How does it affect you, knowing you came up just short of immunity, and now you're in danger."
"Of course it sucks to be in danger," Leafa says. "Kirito did all he could; it's not his fault. I appreciate his effort in nearly getting me the necklace."
"Meanwhile, Killua, your friend Gon failed you miserably."
"He didn't fail me," Killua says. "He just got tripped up on a tough puzzle. That's how it goes sometimes. I don't blame him at all."
"Giselle, any reason to feel nervous at tonight's Tribal Council?"
"For others, or myself?" Giselle asks.
"For yourself," Jet says.
"Nah, I never worry," she replies. "And besides, Yukari and me are tight. We are an inseparable alliance."
"Yeah, Giselle and I are sticking together to the end," Yukari says. "We've had each other's back since Day One."
"Killua, you had a close alliance with Bisky," Jet says. "Now that she's gone, who do you go to?"
But KIllua doesn't answer. He instead gets up and goes over to Lucian, whispering something in his ear. He then goes over to Leafa and whispers something in her ear. Finally, he goes to Giselle and whispers in her ear. The two alliances then begin whispering amongst themselves.
"Wow," Jet says. "This is last-second scrambling."
After the players are finished conversing via whispers, Killua turns to Jet. "Let's do it," he says.
"Okay," Jet says. "It is…"
"NOT time to vote!" Giselle shouts.
She stands up and unveils the note that she found.
"Go ahead and read it," Jet tells her.
"Congratulations," Giselle reads. "You have found an advantage in this game. For this vote only, you may skip the vote altogether and head to Masadora for the night. That makes you immune from the vote."
Giselle then hands the note over to Jet, while the players start scrambling again, whispering back and forth.
"Killua?" Leafa whispers.
"But Lucian may give him an idol," Leone replies.
The players continue whispering, while Jet addresses Giselle.
"Very well, then, Giselle, you can head on out, a helicopter will be waiting for you. As for the rest of you, it is now officially time to vote. Hinako, you're up first."
The Tribal Council theme "Tally the Vote" plays as the contestants go to vote.
Hinako goes to vote.
Killua goes to vote.
Leafa goes to vote.
Leone goes to vote.
Lucian goes to vote.
Yukari goes to vote.
"I'll go tally the votes."
Jet walks over to the voting booth, grabs the voting urn, mixes up the votes a bit, then returns to his usual spot.
"If anyone has a hidden immunity idol, and you would like to play it, now would be the time to do so."
Everyone looks over at Lucian, who slowly gets up from his seat.
"I am playing this idol on… myself," he says.
He then walks back to his seat.
"This is a good immunity idol," Jet says. "Any votes cast against Lucian will not count."
Killua sighs heavily.
"Once the votes are read-"
"Hold on a second, Jet," Lucian says.
He pulls out another idol. He brings that idol over to Jet.
"Play this one on… Killua."
Killua smiles, and as Lucian walks back to his seat, Killua gives him a high five.
"Very well then," Jet says. "This is a good immunity idol. Any votes cast against Killua will not count."
Killua looks thrilled, while Yukari looks nervous.
"Okay, now, once the votes are read-"
"Hey, I'm not finished," Lucian says.
Everyone is floored as Lucian goes over to Jet again.
"Here's a third idol. Play it on Yukari."
He hands the idol over to Jet, then goes back to his seat.
"This too is a good immunity idol. Any votes cast against Yukari will not count."
Yukari slaps Lucian a low five.
"Anyone else?"
The other three girls remain silent, feeling helpless.
"Okay. Once the votes are read, the decision is final, and the person voted out will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately. I'll read the votes."
…
…
…
"First vote… Killua. Does not count."
…
…
…
"Yukari. Does not count."
Yukari looks surprised to have received a vote.
…
…
…
"Yukari. Does not count."
Yukari is even more shocked now that she realizes that she got multiple votes.
…
…
…
"Yukari. Does not count. Still, no votes for anyone."
…
…
…
…
…
"Hinako. One vote Hinako, one vote left."
Hinako's eyes well up in tears.
…
…
…
…
…
"Eleventh person voted out of Survivor: Greed Island, and the fourth member of our jury, Hinako. That's two, and tonight it is enough. You need to bring me your torch."
Hinako wipes away tears while getting up from her seat. Both Leafa and Leone give her warm hugs. She then brings her torch over to Jet.
"Hinako, the tribe has spoken," Jet states, snuffing out her torch. "It's time for you to go."
Hinako waves to Leafa and Leone, then scurries out of the Tribal Council area. "Food!" she is heard screaming off in the distance.
"Well, tonight, we learned the power of advantages," Jet says. "Use your advantages wisely, or else they will come back to haunt you. Grab your torches, head back to camp, good night."
The five shell-shocked players (save for Lucian) take their torches and begin the trek back to camp.
"Hina had fun out here!" Hinako says. "Hina likes Survivor! But Hina would rather spend time with Bro-bro. No Bro-bro, no chance at having fun. Since Hina got to see Bro-bro, Hina had fun! Now Hina gets to go spend time with Sis-sis!"
Who voted for whom:
Hinako – Yukari
Killua – Hinako
Leafa – Yukari
Leone – Yukari
Lucian – Hinako
Yukari – Killua
Scenes from our next episode:
The Student-Teacher Alliance is now firmly in Lucian's corner:
"Lucian saved my butt last vote!" Yukari says. "We've got to go with him!"
But Killua might have other ideas:
"Us three, Final Three," Killua says. "We go back to the way the game started, only with me on your side."
"I'm open to anything right now," Leafa replies.
And everyone's trying to find that idol:
"Now that all those idols were played, there's got to be a new one in the game somewhere!" Yukari says.
"Yeah, I know!" Giselle says. "Hey, producers, where is it?"
