Snakery Is Not Appreciated

 is the eighth episode of.

Merge
At the beginning of the episode, the castaways were informed that they would be merging into one tribe. The castaways named their new merge tribe "Nyuchi" which translates to "Honey Bee" in the Shona language. The new Nyuchi tribe, wearing green buffs, is as follows.

Open Season Twist
At the beginning of the episode, the castaways were informed they would be switching targets along with the merge. Each castaway chose a different numbered jar to determine their new target. Each person on the tribe received a different target, and each person was also the target of someone else. If they successfully hunted down their target, meaning they cast a vote against their target when they were voted out, they earned a trip to the Hunter's Lodge. Targets would be reassigned at pre-determined points throughout the game. The third target assignments of the game were as follows.

Challenges
Immunity Challenge: Flag Making. Each castaway was tasked with creating a tribe flag for the new merge tribe. Each of their flags would anonymously be posted to the viewing lounge for the season, where the viewers would then vote by liking the post of the flag they want to vote for. The person who received the most likes on their flag won immunity and a clue to the hidden immunity idol.

Winner: Jake.

Voting Confessionals
"nyuchi"

- The world moves on another day another drama drama but not for me not for me all i think about is karma

"nyuchi"

- you really caused a big ass mess for no reason sooo if u end up going thank you for that

"nyuchi"

- Sis, I don’t know what your deal is, but the move you just pulled was so fucking bitchy. Unless you had the intention of exposing my alliance and throwing out my name as an outlet to shift the vote from YOU to ME, then fine. But it was so unnecessary. You could’ve been in on this majority had you not of aimed your crosshairs on my frazzled wig and pulled the trigger… Also, you had the audacity to message me acting all clueless and asking what was happening. Of course you fucking know what’s gone down. Ugh, I’m more upset than infuriated with your actions and all I can say is you’re a literal moron. ttyn sweetheart x

"nyuchi"

- you might think you're hot, but girlfriend, you're not.

"nyuchi"

- I really like you but dovile has to stay

"nyuchi"

- Forgive me father, for I have sinned

"nyuchi"

- I always tell the people who are ready to betray me: IF YOU FUCK WITH ME, YOU ARE DEAD!!!! I wanted to go along with you, but unfortunately your mentally head is not smart enough make it to the end. Enjoy the ponderosa, hope you feel better there ❤️

"nyuchi"

- Babe, if this were a truly personal game, I'd go to the end with you, but I can't be the idiot that ignores the numbers on the table.

"nyuchi"

- I'm really sorry it had to be this way Dan, but I felt that I would have been on the bottom if I had tried to save you.

"nyuchi"

- i just don't feel like i can trust you moving forward. you weren't straightforward with me on the augusto vote and that raised more red flags than some post-vote reassurances lowered. with ms. dovile's idol, this is p locked so thanks for a good game and hopefully you get a jury spot!

"nyuchi"

- I'm so sorry Dan!! This rly wasn't ur fault, it was cos the people in ur alliance explicitly lied to me when i asked them if they had an alliance, and now uve paid for that and that isn't fair on u 😞 Xx

Final Words
"nyuchi"

- well shit hit the fan while my ass was sleep, I think people just find me too big of a threat, and this is more or less a lesson in not making little mistakes... I'm gonna go swim now bye y'all 💖

Hunter's Lodge
Dovile successfully hunted down her target of Dan this round, and because of this she earned a trip to the Hunter's Lodge. At the Hunter's Lodge, she selected Jar #9 and received 2 Light Pearls. The 2 Light Pearls automatically cancelled out the first two votes cast against Dovile at a Tribal Council that she was not immune at. The last time the 2 Light Pearls could be used was at the final 7.
