WAR WOUNDS
The Yaxha tribe nursed the wounds they had received from the giant ball in the previous Bolder Smash Challenge. Bobby Jon and Brandon seemed to have sustained the most severe injuries. Bobby John's shirt was pasted to the open gash on his shoulder. Bobby Jon simply said, "Got a long way to go in the game, so probably going to get a lot more banged up than this." While examining Brandon's festering sores, Amy shouted, "That's disgusting!"

When the two teams convened for the Reward Challenge, they learned that teamwork and dexterity would play a big part in determining who wins. One by one, the Survivors must spool fabric from a pole onto their bodies. At each pole, another person will join them as they also wrap up in the fabric. The first team to wrap up and then unwind and cross the finish line will win. Jeff Probst explains that the Reward is twofold. The first part is an adventurous ride through the Guatemalan jungle on a canopy zipline. The second part is a huge chocolate feast awaiting them at the end of the jungle ride.

REWARD CHALLENGE: SPOOLING AROUND
With Amy the winder for Yaxha and Jamie the winder for Nakum, Amy is slower to get to the first pole on her injured ankle. At the second pole, the two teams were neck and neck until Lydia and Stephenie started to get out of sync and fall behind. At the third pole, Gary, Bobby Jon and Brandon continued to gain ground. However, at the fourth pole the two teams were even again when suddenly Jamie unspooled and headed for the finish line for Nakum.
