How's The Slavery Going
(A/N: Please vote on my profile poll for your favorite characters! You choose who wins the fan favorite award!)
Previously on… Survivor…
Cynthia gained Light and Prussia as her slaves…
Prussia joins Light in bowing down before Cynthia.
"Very well then, I will spare the two of you," Cynthia states. "The rest of you are doomed!"
…while the Crazy tribe lived up to its name…
"Shut up!" Haruhi responds. "You sound like Kyon to me!"
"No, I won't!" Anise shouts. "You're a loser, just like everyone else! You're not a winner like me!"
At the challenge, Loly became the first player in Survivor history to be thrown out of back-to-back challenges…
"Stop the challenge! I'm throwing you out for your rough behavior!" Jet yells. "Yes, once again, Loly!"
In the Schmergen Brawl challenge, things got so rough that a player became seriously injured. That player was Yoruichi Shihouin.
"So this decision is final," Jet says. "Yoruichi is leaving this game."
The Brawn tribe was still forced to have to win the challenge, which they did, gaining a tarp. It was the Heroes tribe who lost again…
"Congrats, you four tribes are all safe tonight. Heroes, another pathetic performance, as this time you failed to score a single point. You're headed to Tribal with me tomorrow night, as I've got nothing for you. You can all head back to camp."
At the Heroes tribe, Candice was feeling sick, so she was perceived as the weakest.
"We're going to be in that Final Three, just wait and see. What we need to do is figure out who should go first. Personally, I think it should be Candice."
So Candice decided to go immunity idol-hunting:
"Mine! All mine!" Candice says happily, hugging the idol. "I'm not letting big, bad Cynthia ruin my time again!"
However, the idol was fake, so Candice had to pull a power play:
"I've got the hidden immunity idol," she states. "So go ahead and cast your votes for me, at your own risk!"
In the end, Finnick Odair was blindsided, as Kagome and Toshiro flipped and voted him out. 25 are left. Who will be voted out tonight?
Day 7
Heroes Tribe
(Candice, Kaname, Kagome, Toshiro)
"Great play, Candice," Kaname tells Candice that morning.
"You said it," Toshiro adds. "That was a power play like I've never seen in all my time playing Survivor."
"Thanks," Candice replies. "But you should know that I'm not done playing yet. That was only the start."
"I feel good about my big move, as I should," Candice says. "However, everyone probably thinks I still have the idol. I do – but it's a fake one. I need to find the real one before they figure out that this was just a fake."
Kagome and Toshiro talk to each other about the aftermath of Candice's move.
"We didn't have to vote out Finnick, you know," Toshiro comments.
"But Candice had an idol!" Kagome replies. "If she plays it, who knows, maybe you go home – like what happened last time."
"Yeah, like last time," Toshiro remarks.
"Last time Kagome and I were in the game together was back in Feudal Japan," Toshiro says. "While I got knocked out early in Hueco Mundo, it was Feudal Japan where I had a great shot at winning – and promptly blew it by overlooking Asuka. She played a hidden immunity plushie and sent me home. That still lingers in the back of my mind, and it's why Kagome and I decided to flip."
"We need to make sure Candice can't play that idol and send one of us two home," Kagome says.
"The only way to make sure of that, is by splitting our votes," Toshiro states.
"And hoping that Kaname doesn't team up with Candice," Kagome adds.
So Toshiro and Kagome have a talk with Kaname.
"I think you can see that Candice can't be trusted," Toshiro tells Kaname.
"You mean cause she looked for that idol without telling us?" Kaname asks.
"Right," Kagome states. "That's the opposite of you, because you're a trustworthy player."
"Thanks," Kaname responds.
"They may just be trying to butter me up," Kaname says. "They obviously want me to go after Candice, but I'm not sure that's the right move. Perhaps Candice would be the better one to team up with. I've got to see."
"So obviously Candice is our target," Toshiro tells Kaname. "She got us to turn on Finnick for our own safety."
"What if she does have the idol?" Kaname asks. "Wouldn't that render our votes useless anyway?"
"The goal is to lull her into a false sense of security," Toshiro states. "Get her to think she's safe, like last time. She already didn't play the idol once. Try to get it to work a second time."
"I see," Kaname says.
"I'm not so sure this sneakiness around Candice is going to even work," Kaname says. "I don't think she'll be dumb enough to not play the idol again. But I was wrong a lot back in Xing, maybe I'm wrong about this too."
Villains Tribe
(Haruka, Enobaria, Light, Loly, Cynthia, Prussia)
Cynthia commands Light and Prussia to do her bidding.
"Slaves, you shall serve me my meal," Cynthia states. "None for you, however."
"Yes, your majesty," Light replies.
Light goes to cook the rice, while Prussia helps him. Unbeknownst to Cynthia, the two of them have been eating any time they cook the rice, and they continue to get some to eat now as well. Haruka then checks in with Light.
"How's the slavery going?" she asks Light.
"Same as always," Light replies.
"That bad, huh?" Haruka says. "Well, chin up, because we're throwing the next challenge so we can vote out Cynthia."
"Why?" Light asks.
Haruka looks shocked. "What do you mean, 'why,'? Do you like brown-nosing to Cynthia so much?"
"It's not so bad," Light replies.
"Not so bad?" Haruka wonders. "Okay, spit it out. What's the real reason?"
Light laughs. "I got her to make a bunch of deals with me."
"Like what?"
"Final 4, me, her, Prussia and you. And Loly as the first one out."
"And you're gonna take that? Over our alliance?"
"If I have to."
Light reaches into the bag to get some more rice.
"So you'd better watch out!"
Haruka simply puts her hands on her hips and rolls her eyes. As she does, she notices that Light has something at the bottom of the bag of rice.
"What is it?" she asks.
Light pulls out a piece of paper. He looks at it, and sees that it is a clue to a hidden immunity idol.
"It's a clue to an idol," Light tells Haruka. "Here, you go look for it. Then bring it back to me."
"Uh, hello, Light?" Haruka responds. "If I find an idol, it's mine. And you'd better know it!"
"Whatever," Light says, as Haruka takes the clue and leaves.
"I trust that Haruka will give me the idol," Light says. "Then I'll give the idol to Cynthia, in order to save her. Why? Because I know the power Cynthia holds. She's a powerful player, one I'd love to carry me a long way in this game. If it takes a bit of brown-nosing to get there, so be it. Last time I played I was able to fool Erika into believing that I loved her. It's the same thing, really."
Haruka, meanwhile, goes out and follows the map on the clue. She then goes to dig up the idol.
"Light is nothing but a simple-minded fool," Haruka says. "Just because we have this alliance doesn't mean I'd give him something important like an idol."
She pulls out the idol, then reads the note attached to it.
"On the other hand, every rule has exceptions…" she says.
Brains Tribe
(Ami, Meilin, Rukia, Tatsuki, Whitney)
Whitney is busy cooking the rice for the tribe, while Meilin and Ami are arguing.
"Are you serious, Meilin?" Ami asks. "You're going to continue to vote randomly?"
"It's not random voting, brainiac," Meilin replies. "It's called 'strategy.' I'm voting with the sole purpose of getting people to like me. It worked back in Seireitei Forest, and I'm sure it'll work again."
"How in the world did you get on the Brains Tribe?" Ami wonders. "You should be on the Crazy tribe instead!"
The two begin to argue, while Whitney is busy trying to cook the rice silently. As she pulls out some rice, she, like Light, pulls out a note to a hidden immunity idol. She notices what it is, and very quietly sneaks off to read it.
" 'This is a clue to a hidden immunity idol,'" she reads. "Okay, it's a map. I simply follow this map, then get myself an idol. Easy as pie."
Whitney goes to dig up the idol, but she notices that Rukia and Tatsuki just so happen to be sunbathing within 10 feet of the X on the map.
"Crap! How do I get those two away?" Whitney wonders. "I may be aligned with them, but I don't want them to know about an idol."
So Whitney begins a conversation with Rukia and Tatsuki.
"You two getting some sun?" Whitney asks.
"Yeah, it's quite nice out here," Tatsuki replies.
"We're also out here to get away from Meilin and Ami," Rukia adds.
"Oh? Because of their argument?" Whitney wonders.
"No, no," Rukia laughs. "We didn't even know they were arguing. You know that the two of us are quite close. We're trying to talk about our long-term plans without them knowing. Who to align with after the merge. If Ami were to find out, she'd find a way to dash our plans, one way or another."
"I see," Whitney says.
Not knowing how to get Rukia and Tatsuki to leave, she tries digging at the spot of the X while still talking to them, hoping to do it in a discreet enough manner that neither would notice. Her plan fails spectacularly when she ends up pulling out the idol.
"Oh?" Rukia says.
"What is that?" Tatsuki questions.
Whitney tries hiding the idol, but realizes that she is caught, so she relents to being found out.
"Okay, I'll admit it," she tells the two. "I was looking for a hidden immunity idol. And I seem to have found it."
"Why didn't you tell us?" Tatsuki asks. "Aren't we part of your alliance too?"
Tatsuki is about to get more animated, but Rukia motions with her hand to calm her down.
"Whitney, if you found an idol, that's all well and good," Rukia says. "You may keep it for yourself. However, I'm afraid this is something for Tatsuki and I to be concerned with. Doing things behind our back this early in the game is not the best way to gain our trust."
Whitney sighs. "I'm sorry, girls."
"Whitney really broke our trust by going off looking for that idol," Tatsuki says. "And she had the nerve to do it right in front of our very eyes! This is not the same person she was on Shamouti Island."
"Whitney made a big mistake today," Rukia says. "Whatever benefit that idol gives her, wasn't worth it. Now I'm willing to forgive her – but I won't forget. This is something that could really cost her down the line."
So Rukia and Tatsuki talk to Ami about the situation, later on in the day, while Whitney and Meilin are resting.
"Whitney's broken our trust by going off looking for an idol without telling us," Tatsuki tells Ami.
Ami smiles, realizing the good situation she has fallen into.
"You two and me," Ami says to Rukia and Tatsuki. "Rukia, you were the best mastermind to ever play this game, and with me on your side, there's no way you'll get fooled again!"
"I agree," Rukia says. "I'm cutting all ties with Whitney at this point."
"Of course I'm not foolhardy enough to completely cut out Whitney," Rukia says. "But perhaps our best chances are with Ami instead of with Whitney. We'll see how this thing goes."
Day 8
Crazy Tribe
(Asuka, Kenpachi, Giselle, Roxanne, Anise, Haruhi)
Day 8 at the Crazy Tribe is just like any of the 7 before it: complete chaos.
"Hey, Giselle, get your Pokémon out here," Kenpachi calls.
"Why?"
"Cause I want someone to fight."
"Fine. Cubone, go give the big man something to do."
And thus the lazy Giselle and the even-more-lazy Asuka watch as the big bad Kenpachi fights with the tiny Cubone.
"It looks like Cubone seems to be winning," Asuka comments.
"Well, what do you expect from the greatest Pokémon trainer in the world?" Giselle brags. "He could beat anybody!"
Cubone keeps on jumping and clubbing Kenpachi on the head, and Kenpachi seems to be enjoying it more and more.
"Now this is what I call my morning exercises!" he laughs.
The temporary peace amongst the tribe is immediately broken by Anise and Haruhi having yet another fight.
"Hey, Haruhi, I hear you've never won Survivor!"
"So what?"
"So that means you're not as good as me!"
"You're mean, Anise!"
"Booooo!"
"Mean Anise, mean Anise, mean Anise, mean Anise…"
Asuka covers her head in a pillow, while Roxanne tries to meditate. Giselle continues to cheer Cubone on as the battle with Kenpachi continues.
"This tribe is utter madness," Asuka says. "I can't take one more minute of it. It's literally driving me insane. Stupid Giselle, stupid Roxanne, stupid Kenpachi, stupid Haruhi, and stupid Anise! All so stupid!"
"Personally, I'm loving it out here," Giselle says. "I get to further show how I'm the greatest Pokémon trainer in the world, and I get to further show how I'm the greatest player to ever play this game. It's a win-win for me!"
No one notices that they have been eating way too much rice, and are on the verge of running out…
Brawn Tribe
(Sango, Minako, Silver, Temari)
The "stick together" plan originally worked out by the four Brawn players seems to be crumbling, as two distinct alliances seem to be forming.
"You and me are the real strong ones in this tribe," Temari tells Silver. "Let's face it, Sango's competition was weak as heck. And Minako's even weaker still. Obviously it makes sense for us to be tight."
"But what about a 2-vs.-2 vote?" Silver asks. "Look, I was on the wrong end of one of those purple rocks before. I'm not letting that happen again."
"That's why we have to find an immunity idol," Temari comments. "We find one of those, and we're set."
"Where do you think one would be?" Silver wonders.
"Think outside the box," Temari states.
"Silver's going to be tie-shy, if you know what I mean," Temari says. "He's not going to want to go into a tie vote. That's why I've got to get him a hidden immunity idol. If he has that thing, he won't worry about a tie, and he'll be willing to trust me."
As the two are off looking for the immunity idol, Sango and Minako are under the shelter resting.
"You and me, we've both won the game before," Sango says. "We'd make a strong alliance together."
"Exactly," Minako replies.
"I know we want to stick together strong as a tribe, but we've got to look out for ourselves first."
"And you know Temari wants to win this game really bad. She'll take out the former winners as soon as she can."
"Right. So we vote together, and go after Temari."
"Temari is such a dangerous threat," Sango says. "She's about as tough as a player there is out here, and I know she wants to win bad. I'm really nervous about letting her have any opportunity to advance in this game, which is why I want to take her out now."
Immunity Challenge
"Come on in, guys!"
The five tribes are taken by boat out onto platforms in the middle of the water.
"Crazy, Villains, Brains, Brawn, getting your first look at the new Heroes tribe, Finnick voted out last Tribal Council."
Sango immediately takes note.
"They're getting rid of the winners," she whispers to Minako.
"You guys ready to get to today's immunity challenge?"
"Yeah!"
"First things first, I will take it back."
The players hand back the immunity idols.
"Thank you. Once again, immunity is back up for grabs. This time, only three idols in play. For today's challenge, you will swim out to your tribe's post, and dive underwater to grab a bag, which will have two cogs with letters on its different sides. Once you come back with it, the next person goes, until you have all eight cogs. Once you've got all of them, you will put them together to spell a word. First three tribes to get it right – win immunity, safe from Tribal Council. In addition, you are playing for reward. Wanna know what you're playing for?"
"Yeah!"
Jet shows off a whole bunch of fishing gear.
"Lots of fishing gear for our winners today. A small amount for the 2nd-place finisher, only immunity for the 3rd-place finisher. Either winner can trade in their fishing reward for a tarp, if they so choose. Worth playing for?"
"You bet!" Giselle calls.
"Villains, Crazy, Brains – you've all got extra members, you've got to sit someone out. Who's it gonna be?"
"Prussia and myself will sit out for us," Cynthia commands.
"It'll be Asuka and Haruhi for us," Kenpachi states.
"We will sit out Ami," Rukia states.
"Okay. Sit-outs, take a spot on the bench. The rest of you, I'll give you a minute to strategize, and then we'll get started."
The sit-outs take their spots on the bench, while the other players prepare for the challenge.
"For immunity and reward! Survivors ready? Go!"
Kenpachi immediately swims out for the Crazy tribe, while it's Light going for the Villains, Rukia for the Brains, Sango for the Brawn and Toshiro for the Heroes. All of them seem to be pretty equal as they dive down to grab their first bag. Kenpachi is able to get a slight lead for the Crazy tribe as he swims back.
"Next players, go!"
It's Giselle going out for the Crazy tribe, followed closely behind by Loly for the Villains, Tatsuki for the Brains, Minako for the Brawn and Kagome for the Heroes. Kagome starts to fall a bit behind, as she is not as good of a swimmer. Minako makes up a lot of time for the Brawn and actually puts them in the lead as she grabs her team's second bag and returns for them.
"Come on, guys!" Haruhi calls from the bench.
Loly throws her bag of cogs down hard, and in the misfire, she ends up actually hitting Haruhi in the foot with the bag.
"Loly, did you do what I thought you just did?" Jet asks. "Because if so, you've got a one-way ticket home."
"No way!" Loly replies. "But it would have been well worth it, to do it to Haruhi."
"That didn't look like an accident to me, but I'm going to let it slide on the possibility that it was."
"No fair!" Haruhi calls.
"Continue the challenge! Next players, head out!"
Temari goes out for the Brawn, while it's Roxanne for Crazy, Whitney for Brains, Haruka for Villains and Candice for Heroes. Temari gives up whatever small lead the Brawn had as she goes down for her bag, while Haruka makes up a lot of ground. Haruka actually comes back first, followed by Roxanne and Temari.
"Last players, go on ahead out!"
It's Silver heading out for the Brawn, Enobaria for the Villains, and Anise for the Crazy, all within a second of each other. Then it's Meilin for the Brains and Kaname for the Heroes. They all dive down to get their bags, then come back. By the end, Silver has given the Brawn back a slight lead, while Enobaria is only slightly behind. Anise is in third, Meilin in fourth and Kaname in fifth.
"Open up your bags and start working on those puzzles!"
The players are in a hurry to get their bags open and begin work on their puzzles. Giselle and Roxanne are working together for the Crazy tribe, even while arguing with each other. It's Temari and Silver doing the puzzle for the Brawn, while it's Haruka and Light for the Villains. Rukia and Tatsuki are working on the puzzle for the Brains, and it's Toshiro and Kagome for the Heroes.
"This puzzle will spell out an eight-letter word!"
"Hey, I remember this challenge from back in Shamouti Island!" Giselle exclaims. "The answer is IMMUNITY!"
"Don't go and spill the beans to everyone else!" an angry Roxanne replies.
Now all five tribes are working on the word 'IMMUNITY,' and the Villains seem to be getting very close to getting it, before realizing that it is not correct. So they completely change course and start working on another word.
"Everyone struggling on this puzzle!"
"Maybe it's not IMMUNITY," Roxanne says.
"Oh? So it's TREASURE then?" Giselle blurts out.
Roxanne facepalms as all the other tribes have been given another head-start toward figuring it out. The Brains tribe gets within one letter of solving it, before realizing that this answer, too, is incorrect.
"This is an eight-letter word that I'm sure you've heard before!"
Roxanne suddenly gets an idea, and starts putting the cogs together. Rukia watches Roxanne put the cogs together and copies off her. Both of them seem to be about to finish at the same time, but Roxanne gets it in first – the word is "SURVIVOR."
"Roxanne has it right! Crazy wins immunity and reward!"
Rukia finishes just moments after Roxanne, also getting it right.
"Rukia has it too! Brains win immunity and reward!"
The remaining tribes try to copy off the winning tribes, and it's a close race to the finish, but in the end it's just one of them who gets it right.
"And that's it! Temari gets it for the Brawn, and they too win immunity!"
Temari celebrates along with Silver, while the Crazy and Brains tribes also celebrate their victories. The Heroes and Villains simply look on in shame.
"Congratulations to our winners. Come over here and get your immunity idols."
Temari, Roxanne and Tatsuki collect the immunity idols for their winning tribes.
"You three tribes are safe from Tribal Council. In addition, there's a reward coming for two of you. Crazy Tribe, you get the big fishing reward."
"Thank you," Roxanne states, as her tribe goes over to collect their reward.
"And Brains, you get-"
"We'll take a tarp," Rukia states.
"Very well then. We've got a tarp here for you, go ahead and take it."
Tatsuki grabs the tarp for her tribe, and the three winning tribes begin to head out.
"Heroes, Villains, I got nothing for you, except a date at Tribal Council, where someone will be voted out. You've got some time to talk about it, I'll see you at Tribal."
The two losing tribes walk out in disappointment.
"I'm in trouble yet again," Candice says. "I've got to find that hidden immunity idol or else."
Heroes Tribe
(Candice, Kaname, Kagome, Toshiro)
Candice immediately goes off hunting for the hidden immunity idol as soon as she gets back to camp. Toshiro and Kagome, meanwhile, spend their time talking about what they should do.
"Candice – she's got that idol," Toshiro says. "Whether it's fake or real, I don't know."
"It's got to be real," Kagome comments.
"Then in that case, we have no choice but to go after Kaname," Toshiro states.
"But what if we both vote for Kaname? Then Candice can keep her idol once more."
"You're right. I think we'd better get Kaname in on this."
"Huh?"
"I can't believe Toshiro is going to try to get Kaname in on this," Kagome says. "He's really being risky here."
Toshiro and Kagome sit down and talk with Kaname over the situation, and Kaname understands it well.
"You guys want to take out Candice, but you know you can't as long as she plays the idol."
"Precisely," Toshiro replies. "Which is why we've got to lull Candice into a sense of security."
"And just how do you do that?" Kaname asks. "You turn on me, I presume?"
"It's not a case of turning on you," Toshiro states. "We are merely pretending to vote for you, in order to get Candice to not use her idol."
"I see," Kaname says. "I have a hard time believing you, but I can understand where you're coming from."
"By talking things out with Kaname, I'm pretty much guaranteeing that she votes for Candice tonight," Toshiro says. "That leaves Kagome and myself with quite a few options. And that's our whole goal in pulling off this move."
"I don't trust Toshiro – nope, not one bit!" Kaname says. "But I do understand the strategy in trying to flush out the idol. Really, there's not much more I can do, because I'm in a very bad position. I'm pretty much all on my own, what with Candice going lone wolf. And I really don't like it at all!"
Tribal Council
(Heroes)
The Heroes tribe walks into the Tribal Council area with their torches ablaze. Each member of the tribe sets down their torch, then walks over to their seats.
"You guys, back again," Tuxedo Mask states. "About to become the only tribe to vote out 3 members. It's embarrassing, really."
"You said it," Toshiro says. "I'm completely flustered by all the losing, and I've got to do something to stop it."
"But what?" Tuxedo Mask wonders. "Last time, you guys made the curious move of voting out Finnick of all people. That didn't make much sense, given how strong he was."
"Finnick was strong, but Candice had an idol," Kagome says. "And we had to watch out for ourselves first."
"Candice never played that idol," Tuxedo Mask states. "Does that mean, Candice, that you still have that idol?"
"Of course!" Candice exclaims. "But I'm not foolhardy enough to take it out to brag about for a 2nd Tribal Council in a row."
"Kaname, any thought to the possibility that the idol is a fake?"
"It's gone through my mind, yes," Kaname says. "But we've got to play on thinking that it's for real, because if we don't, it could end up biting us in the butt."
"You're in a tough situation, then, Toshiro," Tuxedo Mash states. "You don't have enough people to split the votes."
"We're thinking about everything," Toshiro says. "One thing we want to make sure happens tonight is for Candice to play her idol."
Kaname raises an eyebrow, and Candice simply smiles.
"So you want Candice to play her idol?"
"That's right. Get it flushed out."
"Now, Candice, do you think this is a case of reverse psychology?"
"It very well could be," Candice states. "Toshiro could be trying to get me to not play the idol, and thus get blindsided."
"And with Kagome and Toshiro being a couple, you know that if Candice plays the idol, you're in a lot of trouble, Kaname."
"Right," Kaname replies. "That's why I don't like hearing Toshiro say that he wants Candice to play her idol! I want to stay around too."
"A very tough situation, with all the psychology going on here. Candice, it really comes down to whether you play that idol or not, how tonight's vote will go down."
"We shall see," Candice responds.
"Indeed we shall. With that, it is time to vote, and Candice, you're up first."
The new Tribal Council music plays as the players go to vote.
Candice goes to vote.
"Trying another power play," Candice says, showing her vote for Kaname.
Kagome goes to vote.
Kaname goes to vote.
Toshiro goes to vote.
After Toshiro comes back from voting, Tuxedo Mask says, "I'll go tally the votes."
Tuxedo Mask gathers the votes, rearranges them, then returns to his usual spot.
"If anyone has an immunity idol, and they would like to play it, now would be the time to do so."
Everyone looks over at Candice, who begins to get up. But she stays in her seat, and does not play an idol.
"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."
He pulls out the first vote.
"Kaname."
Kaname nods her head.
"Candice. We're tied, one vote Kaname, one vote Candice, two votes left."
He pulls out the next vote.
…
…
…
…
"Kaname. Two votes Kaname, one vote Candice, one vote left."
Tuxedo Mask pulls out the final vote slowly.
…
…
…
"Fifth person voted out of Survivor: Crazy All-Stars, Kaname Chidori. That's three, and it is enough. You need to bring me your torch."
Kaname gets up sadly. "Good luck, guys," she says.
Kaname takes her torch over to Tuxedo Mask.
"Kaname, the tribe has spoken. It's time for you to go."
Kaname's torch is snuffed out, and she waves goodbye to the other players before walking out of the Tribal Council area.
"This game rewards big moves, and Candice just continues to make them. Will she be able to parlay these moves into a great finish? One thing's for sure: you guys got to finish the deal and win a challenge, or you're through. Grab your torches, head back to camp, good night."
The players head on their trek back to camp.
"I had fun playing again, I really did," Kaname says. "Even though I didn't last very long, I realize that there were a ton of great players I was going up against, and it's very difficult to beat these guys. I enjoyed it, I wish my tribemates the best of luck!"
Who voted for whom:
Candice – Kaname
Kagome – Kaname
Kaname – Candice
Toshiro - Kaname
Day 9
Villains Tribe
Light and Prussia are kneeling before Cynthia.
"What is thy bidding, my queen?" Prussia asks.
"Obtain the immunity idol – as I'm sure there is one – and bring it back to me," Cynthia states.
"As you wish," Light replies.
Light then goes over to talk with Haruka, while Prussia goes off hunting for the idol.
"I think you have something there," Light says.
"Yeah, it's an idol," Haruka responds, showing Light the idol in plain sight.
"So, are you going to give it to me like we agreed?" Light asks her.
"We never agreed on anything!" Haruka responds. "There was no deal for the idol."
"Come on, this is your best chance to show your loyalty early on," Light tells Haruka.
"We'll see about that," Haruka states.
She hands over the idol to Light.
"Here, take the idol – but don't dare let Cynthia have it."
"I won't," Light responds.
"Just as planned," Light says. "Haruka hands over the idol without any thought. Now I give the idol to Prussia, who gives it to Cynthia as a gift to show his loyalty. And then I'm able to carry Cynthia farther into the game and continue to use her as a puppet."
A little later on, Light meets up with Prussia, who had spent his time fruitlessly searching for the idol.
"Here you go, Prussia," Light says. "It's an immunity idol, and I guarantee it's real. Use it to your own advantage."
"Ah, thank you, another present for the awesome me!" Prussia responds.
"I wouldn't suggest giving it to Cynthia, though, unless you really want to impress her."
Light says this loud enough for Cynthia to hear.
"Okay, I keep it for myself!"
"Slaves! Get over here!"
Light and Prussia walk over to Cynthia.
"I can't believe you would dare talk about an idol behind my back," Cynthia states. "Prussia, hand me that idol."
Prussia hands over the idol to Cynthia.
"Of course I talked about it in such a way in order to get Prussia in trouble with Cynthia," Light says. "It looks like my plan worked."
"You have crossed me, and now your time in this game is over," Cynthia says. "I suggest you bury your face in the sand before me if you want any mercy."
"Yes, Queen Cynthia."
Prussia bows before Cynthia.
"You too, Light."
Light joins Prussia in bowing before Cynthia.
"That's what you deserve for crossing me."
"I am the queen of this game, and no one shall go up against me," Cynthia says. "How dare Light and Prussia try to take an idol for themselves."
Later in the day, Light gets some time away from Cynthia, and he talks with his alliance on who to vote for.
"We don't know if anyone has an idol," Haruka says. "So we split the votes."
"Okay, so between Cynthia and Prussia?" Enobaria asks.
"Exactly," Light states.
"All right, I'm voting for Cynthia," Loly states.
"You and Enobaria vote for Cynthia," Haruka says. "Light and I will vote for Prussia. Then if an idol is played, at least one of them goes home."
"Got it," Enobaria states.
"Little do they know that Cynthia now has that idol, so she won't be headed home," Light says. "They're going to be in for a big surprise when Cynthia pulls out her idol and sends Prussia home."
Tribal Council
(Villains)
The Villains walk into the Tribal Council area, seeing Professor Ivy waiting for them.
"Behind each of you is a torch. Take it and get fire. This is part of the ritual of Tribal Council. In this game, fire represents your life. Once it is gone, so are you."
The players do so, then set down their torches and take their seats.
"Cynthia, I know you way too well, from all the Tribal Councils we had together."
"That is right," Cynthia responds. "And I now command you to bow down before me."
Professor Ivy laughs. "That's not happening. Cynthia, you are arrogant and conceited. Do the rest of you in this tribe see that?"
"Absolutely!" an angry Loly speaks up. "I really hate Cynthia, she's a pain in the #$%!"
"You shall bow as well," Cynthia tells Loly.
"Forget it!" Loly states. "You're never getting me to bow!"
"Light, how does Cynthia's claim to royalty affect this tribe?"
Light smiles. "I don't have a problem with it, but I can see how others do. I'm just trying to keep this tribe in harmony."
"That can't happen when you've got a queen commanding people to bow," Professor Ivy states. "Enobaria, what do you think about Cynthia?"
"I don't think I really need to say anything," Enobaria states. "It's obvious how I feel about her, how I'd like to see her go home."
"But this game is always complicated, and there's always the possibility of a blindside. Haruka, how do you prepare yourself for the unexpected?"
"I know that crazy things can happen," Haruka says. "I'm always on the lookout for something weird like an idol popping up."
"You mean that there's the possibility of an idol in play?"
"There is an idol in play," Haruka states. "I found it."
Enobaria and Loly look on in shock.
"Do you still have it?" Professor Ivy asks.
"That is to remain a mystery," Haruka says.
"I see," Ivy states. "Cynthia, this is where you always seemed to excel: finding a way to get other players' idols in your possession."
"And perhaps I have pulled it off again," Cynthia replies.
"Your tribemates can only hope that you haven't," Ivy states. "It is time to vote. Cynthia, you are the queen, you're up first."
The classic "Tally the Vote" theme plays as the players go to vote.
Cynthia goes to vote.
"This is what you get for not obeying your queen," Cynthia says, holding up her vote for Loly.
Enobaria goes to vote.
"So long, royalty," Enobaria says.
Haruka goes to vote.
Light goes to vote.
Loly goes to vote.
Prussia goes to vote.
"I'll go tally the votes," Ivy says.
Professor Ivy takes the votes, mixes them up, then returns to the players.
"If anyone has a hidden immunity idol, and you would like to play it, now would be the time to do so."
Cynthia makes a grand scene as she stands up in front of everyone, then struts on over to Ivy and hands her the idol that Prussia gave her.
"I choose to play this on… myself, of course!" Cynthia tells Ivy.
"Very well," Ivy replies, as Cynthia struts back to her seat. "The rules of Survivor state that if a hidden immunity idol is played, all votes against that person are cancelled out, and the person with the next-highest amount of votes is eliminated. This… is… NOT… a hidden immunity idol."
Cynthia's reaction is of complete shock as she watches Ivy throw the fake idol in the fire. Haruka, Enobaria and Loly all begin to laugh, while Light cannot believe it.
"All votes against Cynthia will count. 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."
Ivy pulls out the first vote.
"Cynthia."
Cynthia shakes her head, still in complete shock.
"Loly."
Loly crosses her arms in anger.
"Prussia. One vote Cynthia, one vote Loly, one vote Prussia."
Ivy takes out the next vote.
"Loly. That's two votes Loly, one vote Cynthia, one vote Prussia."
Ivy opens up the next vote.
"Prussia. We're tied, two votes Loly, two votes Prussia, one vote Cynthia, one vote left."
Ivy pulls out the next vote and opens it extremely slowly.
…
…
…
…
"Cynthia. We have a three-way-tie. We will revote. Cynthia, Loly, Prussia, you will not vote. Everyone else will vote. Enobaria, come take the voting urn back to the voting booth.
Enobaria smiles as she grabs the voting urn and takes it back to the booth. The "Tally the Vote" music cues up again as she goes to vote.
Enobaria goes to vote.
Haruka goes to vote.
Light goes to vote.
"I'll go tally the votes."
Ivy grabs the voting urn, then returns to her spot.
"I'll read the votes."
She pulls out the first vote.
"Cynthia."
Cynthia shakes her head, still in complete shock that her idol was not real.
"Prussia. We're tied, one vote Cynthia, one vote Prussia, one vote left."
Haruka shoots a glare over at Light over the Prussia vote, knowing that he cast it.
"Sixth person voted out of Survivor: Crazy All-Stars…"
…
…
…
…
"Cynthia."
Cynthia stamps her foot in anger, having a hard time believing it.
"You need to bring me your torch."
Cynthia realizes that there is nothing that she can do, so she angrily gets up and grabs her torch. She brings it over to Ivy, refusing to look Ivy in the face.
"Queen Cynthia, the tribe has spoken," Ivy says with a smile as she snuffs out her torch. "It is time for you to go."
Cynthia hustles out of the Tribal Council area, refusing to look at anyone as she goes. Meanwhile, Enobaria, Haruka and Loly give each other high fives.
"Wow," Professor Ivy says. "Even the great Queen Cynthia didn't see that one coming, especially on the first vote. The queen has been dethroned. How the rest of this game will go is anybody's guess, but I think you should all be happy to know that Cynthia will no longer be reigning over you. Grab your torches, head back to camp, good night."
The players head back to camp quite happily after having blindsided Cynthia.
"#$ %!" Cynthia says. "Just #% *$! I have nothing else to say."
Who voted for whom:
Cynthia – Loly
Enobaria – Cynthia, Cynthia
Haruka – Prussia, Cynthia
Light – Prussia, Prussia
Loly – Cynthia
Prussia – Loly
Scenes from our next episode:
Loly is overjoyed that Cynthia is gone:
"Ding dong, the queen is dead!" Loly sings. "The old queen is dead, long live the queen!"
While Light and Haruka have it out:
"Light, you're a moron!" Haruka yells. "Why the #$ % would you want Cynthia still around?"
"Because she was a guaranteed Final 3 goat!" Light responds.
"Forget it! You got to wake up and play the game now!"
And one tribe finds themselves with a total lack of food:
"I can give you guys some rice," Jet states. "But there is going to be a steep penalty."
