IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: MARINE MEMORY
The tribe is reunited with Aras, who looks ragged, as he returns from Exile Island. Convening for the Immunity Challenge with host Jeff Probst, each Survivor is asked to grab a nut and a shell and put them in opposite hands. He then explains that for the Challenge, each person will swim out to a long plank with seven symbols on it resting on the ocean floor. They will have to memorize the symbols in order and race back to the beach, where they will try to replicate those symbols, in order, on their answer board. The first person to solve the puzzle correctly wins Immunity. But there's a twist: participation in this Immunity Challenge is optional. If someone chooses not to participate, they will instead chow down on cheeseburgers, french fries and soft drinks. They can eat for as long as the Challenge goes or until the food runs out. Whoever wants to take part in the Challenge will reveal a shell in their hand. Whoever wants to sit out will show the nut. All but Aras, Terry and Sally choose to sit this one out.
As Bruce, Cirie, Courtney, Danielle and Shane all devour hamburgers, Aras, Sally and Terry sprint down the beach toward the water. Terry is first to dive down for a peek at the plank with Aras not far behind him. Terry is also first to return to the beach to solve the puzzle, but Aras thinks he has it solved first. When his answer board proves to be wrong, Aras desperately rushes out to the plank for another look. But yet again, Terry solves the puzzle and wins Immunity.
COURTING COURTNEY
After returning to camp, the alliance of ex-Casaya members appear to be holding strong in their resolve to vote out Sally at Tribal Council. Terry, holding both the Immunity Necklace and the hidden Immunity Idol, scrambles to enact a ploy to save his only ally, Sally. With Bruce committing to flop if another ex-Casaya goes with him, Terry plays hard to get Courtney to defect. Courtney is fraught with indecision. "I would like to align with Terry, because I would love to go against him in the Final Two," she admits. "There's no clear-cut way for me to go right now. I'm still kind of confused in my mind."
In the end, Courtney sided with her Casaya alliance, voting Sally out in a six-to-two decision, making her the ninth Survivor voted out of SURVIVOR: PANAMA--EXILE ISLAND. |
