Challenges
Reward Challenge: The castaways participated in a challenge called "Lie to Me". Each castaway had to submit 2 truths about themselves and 1 lie and then try to guess from everyone else's statements which was the lie. The people who correctly guessed the most amount of lies would send 2 people of their choice including themselves if they wanted to to five flower lake, and they would also receive a clue to the hidden immunity idol.

Winner: Yasmin

Immunity Challenge: At the challenge the castaways were informed of a twist where three immunity necklaces would be up for grabs in three different challenges designed around the three starting tribes of this game, brains brawn and beauty. It was the castaways decision which challenge they wanted to compete in.

Winner: Emile

'Brawn Challenge: The brawn challenge was an endurance challenge called "Hand on the Chinese Pole". Once a castaway began the challenge they had to post "I Keep My Hand on the Chinese Pole" every hour on the hour mark. If they were even a minute off they dropped out of the challenge. The person who kept their hand on the Chinese pole the longest won immunity. Aromal, TSN and Yasmin chose to compete in this challenge.

Winner: TSN

'Brawn Challenge: The beauty challenge was a design challenge called "SOS!". The castaways that chose to compete in this challenge had to design an SOS signal for the newly merged tribe in any way they wanted. The SOS signals were judged by three judges based on creativity, effort and originality. The people who created the best SOS signal based on the judges scores would win immunity.

Winner: Priscilla

Voting Confessionals
"kaiming"

- Mai, the reason I’m voting for you tonight is because you’re sketchy as hell and also because Yasmin fucked up the plan to blindside Will Sims—Aromal. You waited until the day of tribal council to acknowledge my existence for the very first time… You and Emile are literally Max Dawson. Emile’s Max and you’re the wart on his foot. We could’ve worked together, but your sketchiness and inability to solidify a social relationship with me is what has caused your fate. Hopefully you do end up being eliminated but your side is sketchy as hell and will probably try taking a shot at me. Your Brain tribe mates must be picked off to like 2-3 and then is when I’ll utilize them to my advantage. Also, your Brains plan to each reach out to one member of the opposing side pretending to be outside of the loop was transparent as HELL. Till next time, see ya heart emoticon

"kaiming"

- you sure was a person

"kaiming"

- Uhh, if you're gone, then I'm going to seriously question TSN's decision making skills

"kaiming"

- I hope you understand this is not a vote to eliminate you, this is purely a vote to save my own ass. Is it a selfish vote, very. But im all out of moves, and this is me taking one big leap of blind faith.

"kaiming"

- Well, here goes nothing. The Cold War has officially begun. Two sides, missiles pointed at each other, waiting to fire, and I just hope I'm not the one who gets hit first.

"kaiming"

- Unfortunately it was Yasmin's fault for why youre going. I genuinely meant what I said when I was going to have your back and I did want to work with you, but it's just not what happened in the end due to miscommunication in my alliance and I'm sorry for lying to you.

"kaiming"

- Okay so you and I both know if I make the FTC you would never vote for me (hmm but I'll think about it later) bc well, we don't even talk. It's not because I don't like you or that I don't want to speak to you. Maybe we both feel awkward to talk to each other bc we're on two whole different sides I think? i dunno. Plus, my number one goal right now is to split duos and everybody knows you're really close to Yasmin. So lets just be honest here I hope it's you going tonight bc i would enjoy it so much bye.

"kaiming"

- Next time, talk to the people you're stranded on an island with

"kaiming"

- Vanne, you should talk to me more because i am the powerful bitch. Your life in my hand. But you didn't realize that. So sorry, bye bitch. Lol Brawn vote out Brawn in first merge tribal haha =))) i am crazy haha and of course i look good 😎 "kaiming"

- Its so crazy how this game keeps changing

"kaiming"

- I vote out Mai cos my alliance says so!

Revote
"kaiming"

- Mai! You didn’t approach me until the day of Tribal Council! A little too late. Anyways, I wouldn’t have considered keeping you because your side literally has 4 Brains + TSN. Not in the mood to be in the minority, enjoy jury!

"kaiming"

- dammit Erin,why the fuck did you ruin everything?

"kaiming"

- Well, didn't see this coming, I don't understand what's going on right now, voting you out because it wouldn't make sense for me to flip on this vote

"kaiming"

- Im so so sorry, it was not supposed to be like this.

"kaiming"

- Here we go again

"kaiming"

- TSN can't save ya this time sorry

"kaiming"

- No point in changing it, right?

"kaiming"

- I voted Mai as she isn't in my alliance.

Final Words
"kaiming"

- Um so i actually saw this coming and to be honest i deserved it bc my gameplay was horrible. All i ever did in this game was saying stupid crap and regretting it 5 seconds later. I was extremely disappointed in the way I played but kudos to erin for the big move she made. I'll be cheering the brains from the jury and hopefully Priscilla or atleast one of the brains will win this. Oh and Vanne? What have I ever done to you for you to call me a bitch? That's just so low you wanna-be villain. And the fact that Yasmin has been talking shit about me even before when i met her just makes no sense and just watch until Priscilla idols them the fck out of the game.
