Survivor Villains Versus Heroes Redemption: Social Groups

Night 29: A bright and white full moon shines against the black sky as the castaways return to their camp. They talk about tribal council as they relax in their shelter. Russell is pissed about Parvati’s secret that she kept from him, while the Heroes are pissed that Parvati took out JT. Russell feels that he is losing control, and one of his pawns, Parvati, is going to take over the Villains group, maybe even take him out. Heroes group chat together about bringing Sandra to their side. Amanda tells them that she can talk to her in order to get more information. The Ying Yang tribe is still divided in  their original groups, similar to political groups, social groups, or clubs. But Sandra wants to create trouble for the Villains group, especially Russell.

Day 28: They wake up early in the morning to the sounds of whales in the ocean. Russell talks to Candice. He then tells his female pawns about Candice.

They arrive at their reward challenge location. They will be put into three teams before they will play a Shuffle board game, Survivor-style. They take turns pushing a puck, similar to table hockey, on a flat surface that is painted like treasure map. The puck has to land on, or at least, closest to the big red X, in order to win the reward. The winning team’s reward will be a retreat at the home of the late author of Treasure Island. Stevenson was buried in Samoa. Colby wins it for the blue team, which includes Danielle and Amanda. A tour guide shows them around the house. The house is filled with antique furniture as well as other antiques. As they sit on a bed to watch the Treasure Island movie and eat popcorn in a large bowl, Amanda and Danielle are very restless and they can’t concentrate on the film. They are looking around the room, trying to figure out where the clue is hidden. All of the sudden, Danielle finds the clue in the popcorn bowl. She slowly takes it and hides it, without showing it to Colby or Amanda. As Amanda is looking around on the floor, she sees it on the floor, by Danielle, and grabs it. They fight for it until Colby tells Amanda to give it to her.

They return to the camp, and Danielle reads the clue to her group. Danielle and Russell search for the hidden idol by the creek where they get their drinking water. Russell finds it under a rock, and he quickly hides it, without telling Danielle. He wants to get back at Parvati for keeping secrets from him. Instead, he decides to tell Candice. He even shows her the idol that he just found.

Day 30: Sandra talks to Colby in the forest. The Heroes group assumes that Danielle has the idol. Colby tells Sandra that he wants to take out Russell or Parvati. Sandra talks to Rupert to take out Russell. Colby tells Amanda about his conversations with Sandra.

They arrive at their Immunity Challenge, and Jeff explains to them the game that they will play for individual immunity. Each person will get 150 wooden tiles of a different color. They have to build a tower of tiles that is ten feet high. First person to make it to ten feet wins immunity. Ten minutes pass, and Jerri and Russell have the highest tower. Danielle is also doing well. It is close between Jerri and Russell at nine feet. Jerri finally wins immunity by one second before Russell. Jerri is excited because it is the first time that she has won individual immunity. Russell talks to Candice, telling her to vote out Amanda. Candice doesn’t like Amanda, anyway. Candice hangs out with the Heroes, listening to their plan to take out Russell. Candice tells Russell everything. Russell talks to Sandra, and then Candice joins them. He tells them to vote for Amanda. Then, Candice hangs out with the Heroes. Sandra comes up to them, accusing Candice of flipping to the other side because she always talks to Russell. Candice denies it. The other Heroes members believe Candice, or they just don’t want to believe that she would go against them. They all consider who to take out next, and they decide that Parvati is their best bet because she gave away both her idols as well as she will never suspect it. Sandra talks to Candice, telling her to take out Parvati instead of Amanda.

At tribal council, they discuss vulnerability, offers for a better deal, and distrust before they each take their turn to vote. Russell decides to play his idol, just in case they really did vote for him. Jeff counts the votes in the box, and it is between Amanda and Parvati. Amanda is the twelfth person voted out as well as the fourth person on the Jury. Russell and Parvati look at each other, and he tells her that he had to do it. She tells him that he wasted the idol.
