JONATHAN: Previously on Australian Survivor...
GEORGE:
..George had his sights firmly set on merge...
We're obviously five with Liz.
The first person that ties their flag to our post is the sixth.
MATT: There's so many thoughts going around in my head.
This moment is pivotal to me having a chance at half a million dollars.
When Simon's idol blunder was exposed...
Simon gave Shaun a fake idol.
..he became public enemy number one...
I don't know what the hell is going on.
Well, that's very clear to all of us.
..and his head was clearly on the chopping block...
Oh, my gosh!
..as the Villains threw the Immunity Challenge.
Heroes win immunity, sending Villains to Tribal Council.
At camp...
We're going 3-3-1. Yep.
..the plan was to split the vote between Simon and Liz.
SHAUN: If Liz plays the idol, Simon's going home.
But Nina saw an opportunity to blindside Hayley.
Yep.
This is gonna be an epic blindside.
However, at Tribal Council...
Alright, Heroes, come on in! HAYLEY: Oh-ho!
..a game-changing twist.
I'm gonna give you a chance to mutiny.
You can jump ship from the Villains to the Heroes tonight.
Liz left her new alliance behind...
Liz.
..to be reunited with George and Shonee.
You are now a Hero.
Welcome home! Welcome!
13 are left. Who will be going home tonight?
(THEME MUSIC)
(EPIC MUSIC)
GERRY: Hmm?
STEVIE: What say you, old man?
Don't forget you and I are both half deaf,
so we speak louder than everybody else.
Oh, yes. What did you say?
Yeah. (LAUGHS)
I like living in my world.
I don't like hearing everybody else's stuff.
So I only wear my hearing aids when I dance.
You know, so I can pick up the beat, the Latin beat.
(LAUGHS)
Oh... Huh!
(BRIGHT MUSIC)
LIZ:
I wanna soak. Yeah.
This is it here.
I feel on cloud nine since I have Liz back
in my loving arms.
OK, it's getting quite choppy. (LAUGHS)
Liz is not only important to my game,
but important for my mental health out here.
(BOTH LAUGH)
I feel like George and I are that little bit extra unstoppable.
And it's just incredible to think
the Spice Girls used to run the Villains tribe
and now we run the Heroes tribe.
GEORGE:
SHONEE: I know. What a great twist.
"Ahh!" (LAUGHS)
You didn't think I was gonna write my name down?
No, but I'm just like... When it was just you, I'm like, "Yeah!"
SHONEE:
(LAUGHS)
You don't think merge is today? No.
It'd be just so good if they went to one more Tribal.
Oh, that would be ideal.
It'd be good for, like, a few more cracks to appear within their group,
which are already starting to happen.
Like, if we actually could've had an elimination last night,
it would've been awesome.
That's not happened.
The fact that the Villains are turning against Hayley
is alarming to me.
Last time I played the game with Hayley,
it was the ultimate head-to-head, it was King against Queen.
But I recognised that if the King and the Queen work together,
we're both indestructible.
So I've been working hard to build
a cross-tribe relationship with my nemesis Hayley.
(CHATTER)
(WHISPERS)
GEORGE:
HAYLEY:
I want to bring Hayley into my alliance with my Spice Girls
and the old boys Steve and Gerry
because I don't want to merge and be stuck in a minority.
So I can't let Hayley get voted out of this game.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Oh, Shonee, I'm tired!
I'm tired too. It's a lot of work.
FLICK: My situation right now on the Heroes tribe
since tribe swap has been very precarious.
This is not moving.
Try and swing that against there for me.
No, it's tough.
I've got to get myself out of this minority
and I'm hoping that a new fresh face
is someone I can kind of work my social game on
and try and make some new relationships.
Oh, wow. Oh, my God! Do that. Look at this.
Yay! Ready?
How's it taste?
Like... Great.
You got into that so well.
(CHUCKLES)
FLICK:
It really is. Like, it's good...
It was obviously good, just us two,
but it's nice to have, like, just one extra, you know?
I already am like, "Yes!
"I can't wait to have more conversations with you."
I know.
I heard that Liz was working
with Sam, Nina and Dave on the other side,
so then I go, "Uh-huh, I have a really good connection with them.
"I'm gonna leverage that."
The people that I was closest to when we were together,
Sam for sure,
Dave and Nina.
Yeah, so I was really close with Sam, Nina and Dave.
Oh, OK, that's great. That's great.
Yeah.
GEORGE: How are the coconuts looking?
FLICK: We're making some now. SHONEE: Yeah, we are.
Yeah. Yeah?
Yeah.
I'm doing whatever I can to stay alive
and just that one person, Liz,
is just, like, changing the dynamic.
SHONEE:
FLICK:
I actually think they see
that I could be beneficial to them come merge
and I think we all just get along.
I've lived with Flick for 47 days in the Outback.
And I know to take Flick's promises with a grain of salt.
(LAUGHS)
But I think Shonee and Liz have fallen under Flick's spell.
I really need to talk to you. Hmm?
GERRY:
Yeah. (SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)
GEORGE:
What? What have we got?
Um, Shonee, she's gotten closer and closer to Flick.
I've noticed the behaviour. Yeah.
We need to get rid of Flick to break that alliance up.
Mate, you and I, our brains are aligned.
She has to go.
And then once Flick's out of the picture,
Shonee and Liz will come straight back to us.
Mm-hm.
I can't let Flick break up the Spice Girls
because if I don't have Shonee and Liz on my side at merge,
I will be extremely vulnerable.
I want to vote Flick off this tribe.
I need to keep Hayley safe on that other side.
I am going to merge in control,
just like I was in the Outback.
(BIRDS CHIRP)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Come on in!
Morning.
Good morning.
SHAUN: Oh, this looks sick.
Hello. Morning.
How you going? Hello.
Morning. What's going on?
So, Liz,
how was your first night as a Hero?
Yeah, it was lovely.
A little bit out of character for me 'cause I am the villain at heart.
But, no, really glad to be back with the girls.
And, yeah, went under the doona last night with Shonee. It was lovely.
(LAUGHS)
Shonee, I can only assume
you are stoked to have your BFF back in the fold.
Yeah. Did you have a lot to catch up on?
We did you have a lot to catch up on,
lots of cuddles.
(CHUCKLES) Nice.
Alright, shall we get to today's Reward Challenge?
ALL: Yes!
For today's challenge,
you're gonna pull a heavy cart through a series of obstacles,
collecting balls and clearing a path as you go.
Once you have all your balls,
one of you will then attempt to land them
in a series of baskets held up by the rest of the tribe.
The first tribe to land all their balls wins reward.
Wanna know what you're playing for? Yeah!
Of course!
A trip to the Survivor...
..sandwich bar...
(ALL EXCLAIM)
..where you will find all the spreads, breads, meat and veg
you will need to build your dream sandwich.
Worth playing for?
Yeah! Absolutely.
Alright, Heroes, for a change, you have an extra player.
You're gonna need to sit someone out. Who's it gonna be?
First time ever, someone on our tribe sitting out.
Alright, Heroes, who's it gonna be?
Me. Shonee, you're on the bench.
Everyone else, a minute to strategise. Let's get it on!
Let's go!
Alright, here we go.
For reward.
Survivors, ready?
Go!
Go, Matt. Up, up, up.
It's David right in the tower for the Villains, Matt for the Heroes.
Everyone else on the cart.
Come on. Let's go, guys.
You gotta pull that cart to the first station.
Pull!
Collect your first set of balls.
That's good, guys. That's good!
That cart is heavy. Let's go.
Good, boys. Keep going. Go, go, go, go, go.
Stop, stop, stop, stop!
Heroes have all theirs.
Villains have all theirs.
NINA: Coconuts! Coconuts.
Oh, coconuts... Oh!
Now you need to clear the path for your cart.
Two at a time.
Some 400 coconuts you gotta toss aside.
SAM: 400. Let's go.
It's a lot of coconuts.
Come on, come on, come on.
Villains working quickly.
Great work, Villains.
Heroes not messing around.
Great work, Sammy!
Everyone desperate to get their hands on that sandwich.
Guys, we're killing it. Come on!
George needs some help in the back there, Liz!
NINA: Oh, watch out! Ooh!
Villains almost have it done.
Go, go, go. A couple more, couple more!
Villains are good.
Go, go, go, go, go.
Ready? Two, one.
Keep going, guys. That's straight so far.
Yep, you're straight, straight. Really good.
Heroes are good now.
Go.
Alright, three, two, one. Go! Pull!
That's it, guys! Keep it up, keep it up! That's good.
Let's go, Heroes.
OK, get ready to stop, get ready to stop.
Villains have a slight lead. Heroes chasing them down.
We're so in this, people.
Little bit more. Little bit more.
Stop, stop.
Villains have their next set of balls.
Now you gotta complete the ramp by inserting all 16 boxes.
Great work.
Keep going, keep going, keep going.
We're gonna have to adjust. Keep going, keep going.
Alright, come back and adjust us a little bit towards the right.
Someone adjust. I'll start this.
Heroes, you need to make sure that your cart is lined up.
You gotta fit through that narrow ramp.
Three, two, one.
(BLEEP)! OK, this is gonna be hard.
Come on. Hustle.
Villains working very quickly here. Swap sides.
Heroes are way off on their ramp. That's gonna cost them precious time.
We're gonna need to pull this one this way.
All on this rope to pull. All on this rope. Pull it.
It's only Liz inserting the boxes.
Everyone else trying to work out the cart.
(BLEEP)! OK.
We're gonna have to lift it up. We gotta lift it.
Come on. Here, here, here.
That's it. Villains have all their boxes in place.
Now you need to make sure that your cart is lined up.
One, two, three.
Yeah, that's it. Now go up.
Go! Good, good.
That's it. Good.
The Villains moving on. They're not messing around.
Keep going.
Meanwhile, Heroes are stuck.
OK, let's try...let's try and fix it again.
Alright. Three, two. Three.
(ALL GRUNT)
One, two, three.
(ALL GRUNT)
One, two, three.
(ALL GRUNT)
Close enough.
Let's help Liz.
(ALL SHOUT)
Yep, good work. Stop, stop, stop.
That's it. The Villains are through.
Collecting their last set of course balls.
Heroes are nowhere right now.
Oh, for godsake!
This is gonna be a blow-out. Come on.
Go, go, go, go, go.
(SAM GRUNTS)
Push it. Villains moving on.
You need to be all the way to the end before you can start shooting.
Shaun's side a little more.
That's it. Keep going in. Keep going in. Keep going in!
Keep going in. One more.
That's it. That's touched.
It's Simon, Sam and Shaun
holding up the goals for the Villains.
Now you gotta land all nine balls.
David takes the first toss.
Just misses. Second one.
He lands it. Nice, David.
Villains lead, 1-zip.
OK, one in. Yep, gently, gently, gently.
Yep. Got it. Slam it.
And another one. Villains lead, 2-zip.
GEORGE: Great.
Finally, the Heroes have their ramp complete.
Come on, Heroes. You need to pick this up! Let's go!
Great. Keep it coming.
Villains have three.
Yeah, keep going, same one.
Villains have four.
Villains have five. Same one, same one!
That's five.
Villains have six!
David is on fire.
Go to another one, another one.
Ready? Go. One, two, three. Pull!
(ALL GRUNT) Get some momentum up.
Here we go, here we go. Come on!
Big pull. Don't let it stop. Let's go.
And another one.
Seven for the Villains. Well done!
No contest right now.
And another one. One more, one more!
Villains lead, 8-zip.
Keep pulling! David going to the win.
Here we go. Oh!
Oh, in and out.
I'm resetting. Go again. For the win!
There it is, guys.
(VILLAINS CHEER) That is it!
Whoo!
Villains... Whoo! Good job!
..win reward. Sandwiches!
What a blow-out.
MATT: Guys, guys, guys. Just stop.
They won. George, Liz, they won.
LIZ: Oh, my God. George!
They've won. Oh, well, good team effort, guys.
Hey, hey, hey!
Yeah, brother!
Oh-ho!
HAYLEY: Hey.
GEORGE:
Eat some food! That was brutal.
GEORGE:
Well done, mate.
(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)
Villains, congratulations.
Your Survivor sandwich bar is open and waiting for you.
Oh! (ALL EXCLAIM)
Here are your instructions on how it works.
Wow. Read it when you get back there.
Alright.
Alright, head on out. Enjoy.
DAVID: We will. Enjoy, guys.
Thank you. See you, guys. Take care.
See you, Sam. See you, Simon. See you, guys.
Have fun.
Alright, Heroes, got nothing for you. Head on out.
GEORGE: Thank you. GERRY: Thank you.
(FLICK LAUGHS) Thank you, Jonathan.
We suck. (CHUCKLES)
HAYLEY: George dropped a bomb.
He whispered to me that Nina was trying
to blindside me at the last Tribal Council
and now I'm nervous.
Is George telling me the truth?
He doesn't really have any reason to lie
and Liz would've told him that information.
I don't feel safe in my tribe anymore.
(ADVENTUROUS MUSIC)
SHAUN: I'm so pumped for the sandwich bar.
It's exactly what I'm after.
I just want meat.
I want carbs.
This is like a dream come true.
Alright, Nina, what have we got?
What are we dealing with? (SINGS) # Dun-dun-dun! #
Uh-oh.
Nervous. Nervous!
(READS) "Congratulations.
"You've won a trip to the Survivor sandwich bar.
"Inside, you can make as many delicious sandwiches as you can eat,
"but you'll have to enjoy them privately..."
(TENSE MUSIC)
"..because there is only one person allowed
"in the sandwich bar at a time."
Ooh! Oh.
"But it's up to you as a tribe to decide unanimously
"on the order in which you visit.
"Have a great time." Oh!
(ALL TALK AT ONCE) How good?
It's definitely gonna be something, that sandwich bar, mate.
We all get to indulge
in the sandwiches, which is amazing.
And, you know, sometimes at rewards
there's hidden idols, there's hidden clues.
I'd love to go first.
(LAUGHTER)
HAYLEY: ..because it's gonna be hard to agree with anything else.
Hayley.
While at the challenge,
I saw a few whispers, across the mat,
George to Hayley.
Arggh!
And I am worried about what he said.
It could jeopardise my game.
So I don't want her to go first
because I don't want her finding anything.
Oh, he got the short!
OK, wait, hold your sticks up.
Alright, I'm gonna get in there.
(ALL TALK AT ONCE) Don't be a dog!
HAYLEY: Enjoy your sangers.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)
(SERENE MUSIC)
(EPIC MUSIC)
Have a look.
(ANGELIC CHOIR SINGS)
Oh, man, bread is so good!
That is good!
There's olives. That's unreal! Ah.
It's got to be here. It has to be here.
But I've got no idea.
Meatballs!
Alright, get some meatballs with chilli.
Mm!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
I don't know where this thing is.
Mess this up.
Mm!
HAYLEY: After the challenge, George whispered to me
that Nina was trying to blindside me.
More...more food than you could ever eat.
I'm not gonna run out.
Now my head is spinning.
I did not see that coming.
Who's up next? Hayls.
Alright, we're in.
Food...in the mouth.
And...
..idols.
I need something to keep me safe,
so I need to keep focused on hunting for an idol.
Just like the food.
Where else could it be?
HAYLEY: Because this reward is exactly where
an idol or a clue would be.
Is she out? Yeah, here she comes.
Hayley going before me into the sandwich reward,
that's not a good thing.
Any luck? No.
Alright.
I'm suss that she has found something.
Oh, meatballs!
That could be another Tribal Council she survives.
I'm definitely gonna be watching her.
Going last, I mean, you don't get to go first,
but going last, you've got free rein.
You do what you want.
(SAM YELLS) Let's go!
You've got to be kidding me!
Let's go!
(ROCK MUSIC)
SAM: No-one was going after me, so...
Food, bro.
That was unreal.
I tossed 'em, threw over the thing, pulled all the bread, everything.
The whole joint's cooked.
(ALL TALK AT ONCE) The whole joint is cooked.
That is so fun in there.
SAM: If I didn't find anything the way I was treating that joint,
I don't think anyone found anything.
(TRIBAL MUSIC)
Let's get this fire going, Gerry. Let's get it going.
Up until this point in the game,
I've been trying to be Hero-strong.
Flicky!
Save us!
But I noticed last night once Liz came over
that Flick switched into overdrive trying to build those relationships.
It's actually quite nice and relaxing being in the water, like...
I want to soak.
I feel like I never spent enough time
to, like, actually get all the grime off me.
I've been really trying to keep my options open.
However,
I know right now that I need to make a decision.
To save myself, I don't see many other options
than to jump ship and work with George.
My only concern is whether I got in too late.
Can't hear us. (ALL LAUGH)
Whether Flick has beaten me
to attaching herself to the mast of their ship.
(LAUGHS)
Yeah, go.
I feel like I made a decision
of how I want to move forward in this game.
I want to move forward with you guys as an alliance.
Mm.
Um, I did mention it before.
But I just, essentially,
want to offer my...services to you guys moving forward
as a possible idea going into merge
as someone...as a mole.
(TENSE MUSIC)
Um...
Yeah, interesting.
It's just, like, depending what happens
at the next Immunity Challenge...
Yeah.
..those conversations will be critical.
Yeah. And...
I just want you to know...
No, no, it's all good. ..where I'm at.
Whether we win or we lose, I still want to be with you guys.
No, that's very beneficial, what you just told me.
GEORGE: Matt has finally seen the light.
That's music to my ears.
OK. Thank you.
All good, mate.
I would rather take a chance and work with Matt,
who I think is a stable game player...
If you say you're in... 100%, yeah.
I can look into your eyes, I-I can tell that you're genuine.
GEORGE: ..than someone like Flick... (LAUGHS)
..who, just like the social butterfly,
she'll fly off and away at merge.
Had a chat with Matt... Yeah.
Um, now I'm on the same page as you. Yeah, good, good.
Beautiful.
So I hope you stick with us. OK.
Because things will get...
Things will spice up very quickly. It'll escalate really quickly.
And... Once I say I'm loyal, I'm loyal.
That's good.
Teamwork, that's what it's all about.
And we'll just ride the bus, mate, ride the train.
We're not gonna ride it, we're gonna drive it.
We're gonna drive it. Stand up and drive that puppy.
You've got to drive the bus, otherwise you're just a passenger.
Yeah.
This is the extra number that I've been looking for
to make sure that I'm in a merge majority.
(URGENT MUSIC)
We have five people here in the alliance
on the Heroes tribe.
If we include Matt and Hayley,
that's the magic seven.
So no matter what happens this Immunity Challenge,
Flick's days are numbered on this tribe.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(DRAMATIC DRUMMING)
Come on in!
What are we doing, holding that up?
(INTENSE MUSIC)
Hello. Hello.
Morning. Hey, guys.
Shaun, tell us about that sandwich bar.
What did you find when you go there? It was a Survivor classic, mate.
It was everything you could want in a sandwich bar.
There was chicken teriyaki, meatballs,
all the lettuce, tomato, cheese and mustard, tomato sauce.
Alright, guys, I got the picture.
Alright, shall we get to today's Immunity Challenge?
Yeah, let's do it. Hell, yeah!
Who has it? Stevie.
Here you go, JLP.
Thank you.
Once again, immunity is back up for grabs.
SHAUN: Whew.
For today's challenge...
..you'll each hold a sandbag above your head
attached to a trough of water.
If you tire, you can drop out of the challenge.
But you'll need to hand your sandbag to one of your tribemates.
At the same time,
one person from each tribe will go head-to-head
attempting to solve a puzzle.
First to get it right can then choose one person
from the opposing tribe to drop out of the challenge.
Ah!
If it any point someone drops a sandbag,
the trough will dump
and your shot at victory will wash away.
Last tribe standing wins immunity, safe from the vote.
Losers, Tribal Council, where somebody's gonna become
the 11th person voted out of this game.
Heroes, you have an extra player. You're gonna need to sit someone out.
It was Shonee yesterday. Who's it gonna be today?
OK, yeah. You sit out, then, Gerry.
Gerry, you sit out.
Alright, Gerry, you're on the bench.
Everyone else, a minute to strategise.
We'll get to it.
Yeah. Yeah.
You're the best puzzle person left. Yeah.
GEORGE: If we get that puzzle first, we take Shaun out.
Steve, I'm happy for you to do the puzzle.
We will just hold it up for as long as we possibly can.
OK, I'm good at that.
(TRIBAL SINGING)
Alright, everyone's in position.
Puzzle-makers, you may begin.
This challenge is now on.
Go, Stevie!
Go, Nina.
It is Stevie and Nina racing to finish that puzzle first.
Whoever does will get to choose who they want to knock out
from the other tribe,
putting them at a significant disadvantage.
Everyone else doing their part,
holding up a 5kg bag above their heads.
Just need to keep at least one hand on a bag.
It's a classic Survivor challenge
with the addition of a twist, a classic Survivor puzzle.
Stevie working on the outside of his puzzle.
Nina's working on the middle.
GEORGE: You got it, Steve.
It's the Survivor logo.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can get this very quickly.
Heroes would love for Stevie to nail this puzzle,
take out one of the Villains' big boys.
Great job, Nina.
Nina showing some nice progress with her puzzle.
There we go.
Nina, this is looking fan-bloody-tastic.
Villains very happy they put Nina on the puzzle.
She's the puzzle queen.
Cool, calm and collected, just like Mama.
Come on, Stevie!
I'm trying.
Try your best.
Maybe move the puzzle pieces you have on the right to the left
so you can see them.
Yeah, half of them are covered. OK.
Big difference in puzzle-making skills here,
Nina proving she is not to be messed with.
Oh, she's very good. She's very good.
They've almost got it. Yeah, I know.
Yes, Nina!
And another piece for Nina.
Powering through it now.
Far out.
Nina down to a dozen pieces.
Australian...Survivor...
Stevie still scratching his head.
Yeah, I am scratching my head.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
I just don't get it.
Let's go, Nina, let's go!
Nina down to four pieces.
Far out, guys, get ready.
Really taking her time, torturing Stevie.
Don't give up yet. Don't give up yet.
No, she's done. Nina down to one piece.
How we going? VILLAINS: Yeah!
Whoo!
And that is it.
Villains have their puzzle done.
Boom! One word, Neens!
Alright, who do you want to knock out?
Matt. Matt is out of the challenge.
You all good, Shonee? Yeah.
I've got it. Give it to me. I've got it.
Got it?
GEORGE: Let me help you. No, I'm alright for now. You rest.
OK.
Matt, Stevie, Nina, take a seat on the bench.
Keep it up, guys.
STEVIE: Sorry, guys, I just can't do it.
Heroes down to four.
Liz has two bags now.
Five bags per tribe,
that's 25kg.
How you distribute that weight is up to you.
GEORGE: It's a balance issue for me. George has two bags now.
All it takes is one bag to slip,
that trough will dump and so will your shot at immunity.
You've all been at it for 10 minutes.
The rain's kicking in now.
Like we needed, like, more of a disadvantage.
Gonna get tough in the wet, guys,
so make sure you're gripping your bag.
What's that?
NINA: Guys, just do not slip. Do not slip.
That's it.
Just one lapse of concentration on the other side,
they've dropped it.
I'm worried about tonight at Tribal Council.
No, but you're fine.
Really? Yeah, I promise.
Oh! Eeee!
George trying to push through the pain.
I've got it, George!
Hands off to Liz. Do you want to give me your one?
GERRY: Hey, team, keep swapping it out, guys.
(EXHALES FORCEFULLY) Come on, guys!
Liz digging deep.
Screwing up her face in pain, not happy.
God!
Do you want to give me this one?
Are you rested? Yeah.
Liz trading off with Flick.
Yep.
Those bags are all over the place.
Lots of transfers.
Lots of opportunities for a mistake.
(BLEEP)! Oh!
A little slip from Flick.
That was almost it.
Whew.
Both tribes have been at it for 20 minutes now.
You've got to wonder
how much the Heroes have left in their tanks.
(TENSE MUSIC)
I hope not. I'm telling you.
OK. I believe you.
Thank you.
Tell me what to do and I'll... I'll 100% do it.
I need help. I need help.
I've got it. I've got it!
I'm good for a bit. Rest, George, 'cause I'm giving it to you.
I'm resting the left.
(SCREAMS) OK, I'm coming, Liz.
(SQUEALS) Georgie! No, this way!
Liz begging George for some help.
Ohhh!
It is chaos over there right now,
'cause they are digging deep to stay in this.
OK, I'm struggling. Liz! Ugh! Oh!
Liz coming in to help out Shonee.
(GRUNTS)
This could be the end, guys.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
In one, two, three. Drop it!
(SURVIVORS EXCLAIM)
That is it!
Villains win immunity, sending the Heroes to Tribal Council.
Safe from the vote! Safe!
(ALL LAUGH AND WHOOP)
Yeah!
Nina, you're the best. That was insane.
(TRIUMPHANT MUSIC)
Villains, congratulations. Whoo!
Immunity is yours.
Thank you. Well done.
Appreciate it. Yay!
You are safe. Nobody going home.
Head back to camp, enjoy your evening off.
Thank you.
Good luck tonight, guys.
See you, guys. Have fun.
See ya. Maybe.
Well, we put in a good effort, guys.
We did. We did.
Alright, Heroes, hard-fought battle.
Nevertheless, Tribal Council tonight,
where one of you will become the 11th person
voted out of this game.
Head on out. I will see you tonight.
See you.
MATT: I'm nervous, but I really put in
a good bit of work with Gerry, Steve and George.
And so hopefully tonight
it's not me going home but it's Flick.
Despite losing the challenge,
I feel like I have put in the hard yards socially,
with George, Shonee and Liz.
I feel like we've got a little girl gang
and they're probably gonna save me over Matt
because my social game is a lot stronger.
(SPARSE MUSIC)
It's hard carrying the same amount of weight as them
with all those people.
Bit of a height and weight and strength disadvantage.
I am sorry.
I just couldn't catch up.
Stevie got completely annihilated by Nina on that puzzle.
But do you know what?
I'm not that concerned that we lost today.
Well, I'm starving, everyone.
I'd love to get some rice on before it starts raining.
And then, I suppose, we all have to talk before tonight with each other.
Yeah.
The priority tonight is to blindside Flick,
get back Shonee and Liz
and to make sure that I maintain
total domination of this tribe.
Get a bit of heat in it.
Bob's your uncle.
I'm voting out Flick, OK?
They've been hoodwinked by Flick. (CHUCKLES)
Yeah, done. She's gotta go.
If we keep Matt...
Hayley's running straight to us.
Mmm.
We will get rid of everyone but Hayley.
Yeah.
Five Villains on this tribe, including Gerry,
Matt and Hayley,
we will have the numbers to control the merge.
OK, uh...
I think our mind's on the same page, but you tell me.
OK.
So we've got Matty online, right?
Yes.
He told me that as well. 100%. Yeah.
So it has to be Flick.
It must be Flick.
Flick's the only option. The only option.
We think alike so much. That's how I see it.
Now that we have Matt,
this is a very good move for us moving forward.
Don't tell Shonee and Liz we're close to Matt.
No, no.
It's the three old men of the Villains that are sticking together.
OK.
I know that our alliance will be stronger
and better together in the future if we chop Flick now.
She changes sides like the wind.
Why would I leave Flick in the game?
So she can run off back to Sam and David the moment we hit merge?
Shall we sit down? Hurry up.
Come on, we don't have much time.
So, where are you at?
My thought is now Matt.
Mmm.
He's not gonna stick by us.
And we need the numbers going into merge.
I have a different interpretation.
But she said she reckons that they would wanna work with us.
No, no. This is what will happen.
Because Flick will be Flick.
Lovely girl, but we're not the priority.
Flick just will flick on the game like that.
The safest thing for us is by getting rid of Flick.
But I feel like I trust her when she says she wants to work with us.
Trust me.
OK?
MATT: Yep. I'm 100% on board.
Great. You're in a solid grouping.
Yep. Have no concern.
We are locked and loaded.
Flick's gonna think we're all voting for Matt.
STEVE: Got it.
Roger that.
(CHUCKLES)
Or copy that.
Doesn't matter. Either. Either/or.
FLICK: I've noticed that there's been
a lot of strategy chats happening.
But I haven't been a part of any conversations,
which makes me very nervous.
Um...
Yeah, yeah. Come for a chat.
Just before we, um... Yeah.
Let me just put down the wielding axe. There we go.
I obviously feel really nervous.
I just wanted to know where your head's at.
I was talking with the girls.
And the plan is Matt.
OK.
That's what the three of us feel more comfortable with.
So that's what we're doing. OK.
I know how George plays this game.
I played with him for 47 days before on my last season.
And I just feel uneasy.
I...have a weird feeling.
So that's basically where it's at.
I don't believe it for a second.
Right.
I thought I was safe, but I think I'm in trouble tonight.
(SPARSE MUSIC)
Stevie? Is it still dirty?
No, no. Do you reckon you could wash that other pot as well?
Oh, yeah. So we can do the beans.
Anything for you, Liz.
Oh, thanks!
It's clear to me that George is trying to blindside me.
You good? Yep.
MATT:
STEVIE:
So I need to convince Shonee and Liz to save my butt in the game.
GEORGE: I'm not mucking around.
It's basically either me or Matt.
So I might have to be a bit of a villain
and throw Matt under the bus.
Like, unfortunately,
going forward, for Matt, like...
And then it's up to you guys. I mean, you guys have the numbers.
I'm just gonna do whatever you guys tell me to.
I was leaning more towards Matt.
I would 100% do it in a heartbeat.
Just keep it us and George.
Yep. Yes. 100%.
Oh, yeah. It's still enough. Well, that's four votes.
You know? So...
OK. And you're not gonna dog us, are you?
Holy shit, no.
Come merge.
No, no. No. I wanna work with you guys.
I really, really like the idea of that.
Yeah. OK, cool.
On the board committee of the Heroes tribe,
we have myself, George and Liz.
And we run this place like a smooth criminal.
But tonight at the boardroom, we are having some issues.
We'll see what Georgie reckons.
There is a major power struggle going on.
Liz and I are together on this vote.
We both have the same opinion,
that it is the smarter, better, safer move
to keep Flick,
because come merge, Flick comes with some friends
and Liz happens to be friends with those friends as well.
Mm-hm.
..you get the next pick.
LIZ:
I just wanna... I just want, like...freshness.
..moving forward with a solid group of people.
And, like, I know I can have that with you guys.
Like, I feel like that. Mm-hm.
(CHUCKLES) Thanks.
I...
(LAUGHS)
It's true!
It's just...
I'm beginning to feel annoyed.
In an alliance, you have to give and take.
But George is a very dominant personality.
He likes to, you know, be the leader of the group.
That is a big problem.
She even said the words to me "Sam's my number one."
That's the problem.
It's just so frustrating.
Nothing's getting through.
Oh.
Shonee and Liz are really pushing hard
for me to change my vote to Matt.
And I'm starting to get worried.
United we stand.
If I put my foot on the throttle too hard with Shonee and Liz,
that's what I might lose.
I don't want tonight to be the night
that the Spice Girls break up forever.
But I want Flick to go home.
JONATHAN: Join ex-Survivors Khanh and Brooke
with Shannon Guss for 'Talking Tribal',
your weekly deep dive into Heroes v Villains
only on 10 play.
(SOFT WHISPERING)
(INTENSE MUSIC)
GEORGE: Back again.
So, Liz,
back at Tribal Council.
This time, with a different tribe. (CHUCKLES)
But how does tonight feel different for you
compared to last Tribal?
Tonight feels different for me because I feel powerful
and comfortable being back with my alliance.
Um, at the Villains tribe,
I was definitely at the bottom of the pecking order.
Shonee, you're happy. (LAUGHS)
Happy she feels so at home here! (LAUGHS)
That's nice. Flick.
(LAUGHS) Yes?
How at home do you feel right now?
Oh, it's the exact opposite, actually,
of how Liz is feeling.
I'm sure Matt is probably also feeling the same.
Um, we've been on the bottom now for a long time.
On paper, it doesn't really look too good for us tonight.
And I think we both come in tonight
with about a 50/50 chance of surviving.
Stevie, are you confident that
the alliance is gonna stick together tonight?
I'm very comfortable right now with this alliance.
We do have a battle plan.
We are robust and, um...
..are strong together.
But Shonee, in any alliance,
there are different opinions, different ideas
on how to move forward in the game.
So, how do you bring all those ideas and opinions together
and align on a night like tonight?
Yes, everyone does have different opinions,
and sometimes it's a little bit annoying
when you're trying to get your opinion across
and someone else doesn't see that.
I think we all have to compromise.
The priority is to be in the strongest possible position
when we merge.
Um, and now's the time to be unified
behind the decision that's in the best interest of the group.
However, in an alliance, sometimes, you know,
you take the risk with someone else's decision
and then next time, maybe you put a name forward.
The thing with Survivor is every decision's a risk.
The intent is always the best decision for the group.
Matt, this is exactly what you want to hear -
that not everyone is in agreement.
On that point - were you able to exploit that division this afternoon
to your advantage?
I don't wanna exploit a division.
I wanna join and be part of this alliance going forward.
I really, honestly do wanna work with you guys
moving forward into merge.
And I promise that if I get the opportunity,
I'll have your backs and do everything I can
to help us get as far as we can in the game.
The way I see it, come merge,
I think out of myself and Matt,
I'm probably gonna a person to do the job,
to pull the couple of people aside
that we're going to need to have the majority.
Um, secondly,
Liz and Shonee, like, I have loved having both of you around.
And Liz, especially the last couple of days,
it's been so nice to properly meet you.
And I really hope that, like, we have more time together.
George, I played against you for 47 days.
And moving forward in this game, I would love to play WITH you,
alongside you,
like the brother that I do see you as.
That's...that's quite the pitch.
I know where I wanna be
if I am to make it through tonight,
and come merge, I know exactly where I wanna be.
Gerry, do you see one of them a bigger threat than the other?
Yes, I actually do.
The people on the other side,
after they threw me under the bus,
I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw 'em.
The top of the hierarchy was impenetrable.
But Flick is offering you a way into that hierarchy.
Why? To be put on the bottom again?
Not to be put on the bottom,
but they will eventually have to crack, Gerry.
I...I don't believe it.
Alright. And I don't trust you.
OK.
So, Flick, Gerry is taking a very hard line on this.
100%, he definitely is.
And I think he...is to be expected.
Um, if the shoe was on the other foot,
I think I'd probably be feeling a bit upset about it too.
But playing this game before previously,
I know that there are twists and turns at every moment.
And I was on the bottom for about eight consecutive votes in a row.
I know how it feels.
I know how it feels when everyone's talking
and you're not involved in the conversation.
Yeah. Yeah, no, look, that's alright.
Yeah, they're done. Going back there hoping...
..to align with the hierarchy...
..I just can't see it.
I don't see us aligning with everyone over there.
I only see a couple of people.
So, George,
with all the whispering going on, it would seem like
that the difference in opinion hasn't been settled.
No, this is a very complex vote tonight.
It's not as simplistic as, you know, picking one or the other.
It's determining the future of the entire group.
Shonee, is the choice clear for you?
Yes.
It is clear. Mm-hm.
(TENSE MUSIC)
(MUSIC INTENSIFIES)
Stevie, what's that about? STEVIE: I'm not concerned.
You're not concerned? Yeah, Stevie's cruisin'.
(SHONEE CHUCKLES)
Your hair looks nice tonight, Stevie.
Did you brush it back a bit?
Did I? Oh, OK.
Yeah, he's cruisin', as you said.
Ooh!
GEORGE: OK.
Can I say something?
Today's a really sad day for me
because we have two individuals, two beautiful people,
that I got to know
and I'm going to vote one out.
And really, it's a difficult choice,
as George tried to explain before.
We are only as strong as we are together, united.
If we start to divide ourself, then we fall.
That's the old saying.
So to me, it's clear but it's sad, you know what I'm saying?
I've gotta do what I've gotta do.
Alright. Well, should we find out who it's gonna be?
I think it is time to vote.
(OMINOUS MUSIC)
GEORGE:
SHONEE: Ooh!
Time to vote. Matt, you're up.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(MUSIC CALMS)
(MYSTERIOUS MUSIC)
(INTENSE MUSIC)
(MUSIC CALMS)
Unfortunately, tonight, I have to send you home
for the sake of our alliance.
I'll go count the votes.
If anyone has a hidden immunity idol and you wanna play it,
now would be the time to do so.
Alright, I'll read the votes.
First vote, Flick.
Matt.
Flick.
Two votes Flick, one vote Matt.
Stevie.
Two votes Flick, one vote Matt, one vote Stevie.
Stevie.
We're tied. Two votes Stevie, two votes Flick, one vote Matt.
Stevie.
Three votes Stevie, two votes Flick, one vote Matt.
One vote left.
11th person voted out of Heroes v Villains - Stevie.
Thank you. OK.
Need to bring me your torch.
OK.
You played a great game, Stevie. No worries.
OK. See ya, Stevie.
See ya on the other side.
Good luck, everyone. God bless.
See you, Steve. Well played, Steve.
There you go. Stevie, the tribe has spoken.
And so it has.
Alrighty.
Oh, it's devastating. So sad.
Whoa. That's a big blindside.
Well, that was one helluva plot twist.
(LAUGHS) It was, yeah.
Grab your torches, head back to camp. Goodnight.
Bye-bye.
Holy dooley.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
It's a great blindside. Completely unaware. Completely.
I think George had changed his mind.
Stevie, I've had to compromise on you.
I would imagine Shonee would be in it
and, so, probably Liz as well.
I'd like to have seen a lot more of you,
but, unfortunately, mate, it's time to go.
OK, cheers.
Uh, let down, disappointed.
Very short-sighted.
I mean, I was voted out.
Any of them could be voted out now
because, yeah, they all cannot be trusted on each other,
so, let's see what happens after that.
But it's treachery at its best. That's the only way to get me out.
Tomorrow night on Australian Survivor...
You can drop your buffs. We are merged.
..the greatest end game is about to be unleashed.
It's four original Villains, eight original Heroes.
Can alliances reunite...
We're pretty outgunned, but we're gonna put together the alliance
that dominates the rest of this game.
..as enemies collide?
No-one in a million years would ever think
that I would want to work with you.
Right now, I'm a lone wolf on the bottom of this tribe.
The half-a-million-dollar question is how can I trust George,
someone who has been my mortal enemy in this game?
And the return of the most gruelling challenge
will push them to their limits...
(GASPS)
..as they battle it out to become Sole Survivor.
