NIGHT 26: Throw Momma from the tribe

... but at the same time, Tyson is now scared of her, because she's playing the game.

On Redemption Island, Tina reunites with Laura M... and Laura M reunites with Redemption Island. She still doesn't know what to make of Ciera writing her name down. On the one hand, she's back at Redemption Island. On the other hand, Ciera is now playing the game for real. And now my eyes are crossed.

DAY 27...

REDEMPTION DUEL: Cube Crossing

Vytas, Laura, and Tina must traverse four cubes across a net tunnel. Then the competitors must arrange those cubes in such a way that their colored sides will not match up on a four-cube totem. The two quickest will live to see day 28. The loser joins Aras on the jury.

WINNERS... TINA.... and then by virtue of Tina helping Laura... LAURA! Vytas is out of the game, but he will join his brother on the jury, which could be pivotal.

Back at camp, the Kasama are applauding the moms. The next votes are going to be critical. Right now, Tyson thinks that the best thing that he can do for himself is keep everyone against Katie. Right now, it's him, Hayden, Gervase, Ciera, and Caleb. But you don't want to wait too long and be that guy who gets blindsided himself. Hayden lets Caleb in on that and tells him that it's time to make a move.... against Tyson.

Caleb goes to Katie with this new information, saying that he's going to blindside the ringmaster. Katie says that she feels like a hermit crab looking for a shell, but her options are looking better by aligning herself with the former Tadhanas.

Caleb goes to Ciera with the SAME STORY PLUS a final three deal with her and Hayden. But it's too sketchy for her, so she just tells everyone what they want to hear. So she goes to Tyson with his information. They have each other's backs. They trust Gervase and maybe Monica. They decide to flip it on Hayden or Caleb. Tyson may have to lock his game down down DOWN. Right now now NOW... Because Ciera is a wild card.

NIGHT 27: "Every single vote 'til the end."

Tyson and Gervase decide to bump out Caleb. Two days ago... controlled chaos. Now... CHAOS. Hayden and Caleb were trying to stir the pot, but they, and this is Gervase talking, "got sloppy". And nobody likes sloppy seconds.

DAY 28: No One Sleep in Philippines

Ciera and Tyson go to get the Treemail. At that time, Hayden and Caleb solidify their plan... and so do Tyson and Ciera, who notes that "A) they're gunning for him, and B) I saved him, and C) he doesn't want to be sitting next to them anyway."

... oh right, the letter!

So what if Ciera flips? Hayden says he could be in big trouble. So he goes to get an insurance marker from Katie. She thought voting Tyson was her best option, but in the end, voting Ciera could help her game out as a plan B.

Well, you know what they say about the company you keep...

DAY 29...

IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Eat or Compete

There are seven sand buckets, each one clocking in at a quarter of your body weight. Using a wench-pulley system, you will have to hold your grip for as long as possible. If you let go and crack your tile, you are out. Last one standing wins Immunity.

HOWEVER, there is one twist. If you are so confident in your position in the game that you don't want to risk it by playing, you can sit and feast for the duration of the challenge.

Taking Jeff's offer to eat... Gervase, Tyson, and Ciera.

WINNER: MONICA!

Back at camp, the tribe is celebrating win #3 for Monica Culpepper. Hayden notes that Tyson, Gervase, and Ciera all chose to eat, so it's telling. He tells Katie that she can't be trusted. It's three against four, and now it's time to come up with a plan. Hayden says to Caleb that they need to be in the majority. He decides to turn the entire camp on Ciera.

Hayden and Caleb tell Tyson about Ciera. Tyson talks about what Ciera's plans are. She's playing both sides, and she's a good liar. Is she pitting the guys against each other? Is it time to cut her off before she can cause more trouble? Or is Tyson still a little leery about trusting Hayden and Caleb. Caleb wonders if Hayden is still playing his own game. "Hopefully everyone is on board, and Ciera is going home tonight. She should've picked a side and stuck with it."

Tyson tells Gervase about Hayden/Caleb's plans. Someone's lying around here. It's either Hayden and Caleb... or Ciera. At this time, it's time to play with your gut, which is scary, because if you trust the wrong person, you're going home.

NIGHT 29: TRIBAL COUNCIL

Is there any harmony left in the alliance of 7? He's a little bit jealous of the three that ate, because he doesn't feel as safe as they do. Caleb wasn't shocked at all at who decided to eat. Ciera thought that she was not going to win this challenge. Tyson was a bit surprised as more people weren't eating. Trust... Gervase trusts people, but he's hoping a few people keep their word. Hayden thinks he trusts Gervase. Ciera doesn't feel like she's trusted. Tyson would be shocked if he was voted out. Caleb... thinks that there's going to be a blindside. Ciera would be shocked if it was her.

TIME TO VOTE.

Caleb: CIERA - "You just ran your mouth way too much in the past few days".

That's one. The others... RIGHT AFTER TYSON PLAYS THE IDOL! .... eventually.... There it is. All votes counted against Tyson are now invalid.

... Tyson's name doesn't come up once. By a vote of 4-3.... CALEB BANKSTON, THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN.

Next week, it's Tina, Laura, and Caleb for another shot at Redemption.
