Cucaroo Tribe - Night 3
The Cucaroos return from Tribal Council and the main topic of conversation other than sleep is who voted for who...
Madeline: I think we made the right choice, she was bringing us all down so she had to go, now let's not visit Tribal again anytime soon, please!
Alec: I am sooooo tired, the trek to Tribal is a killer, seriously couldn't they build that thing closer?
Rachel: Thanks for keeping me around guys, I don't know who it was that voted with us but seriously, thanks a bunch, you really saved my skin! When I saw all those votes for me I kind of lost of my cool.
Madeline: I noticed there was a stray vote for me too, who would want to vote me out?
Julia: Let's not worry about that now my loves, let's just get some shut eye and we'll talk about it more in the morning.
Will: *Yawning* I don't think I could stay awake another minute, goodnight guys!
Will: *Whispering* Psst! I was the one who voted for Madeline, I take it you voted for Kristen?
Julia: Honestly, I haven't a clue what you are talking about. Sweet dreams Will.
Will: I saw your reaction when the votes were read out. You looked guilty as heck and you wouldn't even look at her...
Julia: I'm too tired to talk about all that, we'll talk tomorrow.
Will - Business Manager
Will: She can deny it all that she wants, I know what she is up to, she might have the others fooled into thinking she is just a sweet innocent little old lady but she's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Kristen was her best friend out here and she voted her out without a second thought, I'm keeping an eye on Julia, she just proved that she can't be trusted.
Damian: This shelter is really uncomfortable, sleeping on the ground just sucks, I hope we win some pillows or something soon, heck even a decent bed would be nice!
Madeline: I prefer to sleep on the ground actually, It helps me feel closer to nature.
Damian: There's being close to nature then there is being covered in nature, no offense but I don't want nature crawling in my ear and laying eggs in my brain. Trust me, I've seen it on TV, you want to stay off the ground as much as possible.
Madeline: Don't believe everything you see on TV...
Banyan Tribe - Day 4
Since the last challenge the Banyan's have been enjoying some free time on the island, the tribe started construction of their shelter and managed to build a makeshift hammock out of some fallen palm leaves. Now on Day 4 the tribemates are trying to keep busy:
Jerry is trying to catch bugs for his bug collection.
Jerry: Come along now you little... Aha! Gotcha! A fine specimen indeed!
Gregg, Marissa and Nikita decide to have a waterballoon fight using Gregg's luxury item, a pack of waterballoons.
Gregg: Woah! Nice shot! Went and hit her so hard you knocked her over!
Nikita: Not cool, can you like not?
Shelby decides to sunbathe further down the beach with her luxury item, a beach towel.
While Yazmin and Anthony use the fire-making supplies they won at the challenge to build a fire.
Yazmin: You gotta light the coconut husk at the bottom, that way the fire will burn upwards.
Anthony: I know what I'm doing, Just gotta get this lighter to work...
Devin wakes from his nap.
Devin: *Yawning* Have you guys finished with the fire yet? Or have you just been talking the entire time?
Yazmin: Yes! Fire is taking nicely, we gonna have lots of boiled clean water and some cooked food tonight.
Devin: Where's Shelby? Wasn't she supposed to be helping you guys with the fire?
Anthony: Her ladyship got bored so she decided to go and sunbathe down the beach someplace, apparently she doesn't do manual labour, something about it ruining her manicure.
Yazmin: She is so entitled, she practically called me a peasant earlier! You can't come out here and act like that, it's gonna get you voted out.
Devin: I'm gonna go and stretch my legs, I'll be back in a bit... *evil laugh*
Anthony: What's so funny?
Devin: Oh, nothing, just a funny joke I remembered.
Devin - Crime Scene Technician
Devin: Hearing those two talk about Shelby gave me a really wicked idea, I thought maybe I could stir the pot a little and use it to cause a bit of tension between them, anything to stave off this boredom. You wouldn't believe how tedious camplife gets especially with this lot, all they wanna do is sit around chatting about food or music and crap, I wanna talk stratergy so what better way to kick things off than some drama?
Devin pays Shelby a visit.
Devin: Good afternoon Shelby, soaking up the sun I see, If you aren't too busy could I have a word?
Shelby: Oh, not now, I've just gotten comfortable darling. Unless you are bringing me a nice glass of nectar I'll pass...
Devin: I thought it might interest you to know that the others are discussing voting you out the first time we go to Tribal Council. Now of course, you didn't hear this from me but I thought you deserved to know about it.
Shelby: What?! How could they? What have I done?
Devin: Oh, I thought the same thing, you are clearly the most important person we have out here and they must feel threatened by you.Yazmin thinks you are entitled and I'm sure I heard Anthony imply that your mother was a llama.
Shelby: Well! We shall just see about that!
Devin: So what are you going to do about it?
Shelby: I'm not entirely sure, I suppose the best thing to do would be to confront them about it.
Devin: YOU CAN'T DO THAT! *coughs* Sorry, I mean... you shouldn't do that, it will only make matters worse for you. I have a better idea, what say me and you team up and vote one of those guys out when we visit Tribal next?
Shelby: That's a very interesting proposition you have there Devin, I shall have to consider it carefully.
Anthony: Looks like we are the only ones here tending to the fire, everyone else is busy playing or talking.
Yazmin: I'd prefer it to be honest, the others kind of get on my nerves, especially Devin and Shelby...
Anthony: Tell me about it! Those guys are my first choice to go, what about you?
Yazmin: Same, it's not like they contribute anything to the tribe, that doesn't sound too mean does it?
Anthony: Nah, I totally agree with you Yaz, they aren't the nicest people to be around and they are both pretty lazy.
Jerry: Hey folks! What's going on over here?
Devin: Hi Jerry, how's the bug collection coming along?
Jerry: Oh, it's going quite well, I just discovered a couple of stag beetles digging about near treemail, I think I'm going to go and collect some more once I find something to keep them in.
Shelby: Devin was just enlightening me to the fact that Yazmin and Anthony were taking part in a bit of mud slinging.
Jerry: Mud slinging? I'm sorry, I don't follow...
Shelby: Those two little miscrients were talking about me behind my back! Devin says that they think I'm entitled and that they feel I was raised by Llamas.
Jerry: Well, that's not very nice at all!
Devin: Yes, so I was asking Shelby if she'd like to form an alliance and vote out those trouble makers.
Jerry: Hmm... That's not a bad idea Devin.
Shelby: I was thinking the same thing.
Shelby - City Council Member
Shelby: I knew that my personality wouldn't be to everyone's taste coming out here, I don't suffer fools gladly so when it came to the fire I thought it best to remove myself from the situation. I thought I would partake in a little afternoon sunbathing but it seems like my lack of participation has caused certain people to talk about me behind my back... and here I was thinking I'd left all the politics behind.
Cucaroo Tribe - Day 4
Tyler: Seriously I think the Bridgeport Seagulls play way better than the Sunset Dolphins, we kicked your butt in the last season!
Alec: You outta your mind dude! The Dolphins were killing it! You just salty cuz they didn't make the cut for the championship.
Tyler - Little League Coach
Tyler: Alec is such a bro, me and him could talk about sports all day. He's a great guy but his taste in sports teams is pretty bad. I would vote him out just for that one remark about the Seagulls but I'll let it slide. XD I've been thinking of getting a guys alliance together, me, him, Will and Damo. We'd have the numbers and we'd be set the next time we went to Tribal, only problem is that my man Alec is quite close with the younger girls and I'm not sure he'd vote out Julia either. If we can get him to switch to our side we'd have control of the game, I just need to think of a way to convince him that we mean business.
Madeline: Hey! Julia! Can you come here a sec?! We wanna talk to you!
Rachel: Yeah, I got a question for ya!
Julia: Hold on now, wait just a minute, I've got to dry off first, the water may be nice and refreshing but it sure does mess up my hair.
Rachel: Julia, You like gardening right?
Julia: I've been known to have green fingers yes, why do you ask?
Rachel: Well, when we were out exploring the other day we found these seeds on the ground, we don't think you can eat them so we was wondering maybe you could do something with them?
Madeline: Yes, I was wondering if you could maybe plant them in the ground and we could try and get a little Island vegetable patch going, I think they are tomato seeds.
Julia: Well I'll give it a go, not saying that I will be able to grow anything but it'll be a fun challenge.
Rachel: Cool! I'll tell the others.
Madeline - Spa Therapist
Madeline: This morning whilst we were walking down the beach, me and Rachel had an idea of what we could do with the seeds we had found yesterday. Julia was telling us earlier about how she likes to garden in her spare time so we thought about giving her the seeds and letting her make a garden. This does two things for us, one, we get some food if all goes well and two, it gives Julia something to do and as you know, I'm all for growing organic produce.
Will: So myself and the other guys have been talking and we want to make an all guys alliance, there's 4 of us with Kristen going home so we'd be the majority.
Alec: I dunno, I'm not really thinking about alliances at the moment, I'm more going with my gut and what I think is best for the tribe.
Will: Then what could be better than sticking with us?! We could take out our weakest tribemember Julia and then we'd have control over who stays and who goes.
Alec: Julia? Nah, I couldn't vote her out Will, she's a nice lady and she's been so helpful around camp, I'd feel really bad if I did. Besides, I don't think she's our weakest member, she was pretty good at the challenge.
Will: At least tell me you'll consider it Alec, we really need you to be onboard with us, we can't make this move without you and us guys gotta stick together. Do you really think the girls would vote eachother out before you?
Alec: Uh, well I guess not but...
Will: See?! You know it makes sense!
Tyler: Phew! That was nasty! I'd stay clear of those bushes for awhile guys. :P
Damian: Seriously? Ty, what have we told you about going to the bathroom so close to camp?! You'll attract wild animals! Also, that stinks dude...
Tyler: Hey, you can talk bro, you've been stinking the whole shelter out since day 2. You need to take a bath once in awhile, you starting to smell like a gym locker full of socks.
Damian: I can't help it! I just don't want to go in the water, it's complicated. It's also really hot out here and I'm sweating more than usual.
Tyler: No wonder you can't stop sweating dude, you probably be wearing like 4 different layers, Take your hat off or something.
Damian: I might go down to the water and dip my feet in, it is getting real warm and it might cool me down...
Damian: *Breathing heavily* It's like a sauna today! I'll be back in a bit.
Damian takes a walk down to the water's edge, hoping for the sea breeze to cool him down...
But as he walks he stumbles and nearly falls over, he manages to steady himself and get back on his feet quickly.
Damian: Woah! Nearly hit the floor then, feeling kinda woozy. I hope nobody saw that.
Damian - Mausoleum Clerk
Damian: It's so peaceful just sitting here, I could do this all day! Anything beats doing chores back home.
Yazmin: We should try and finish our shelter sometime soon, tomorrow I'll climb the trees and get us some palm fonds for the roof, If it rains again we are going to get soaked.
Nikita: Good idea, maybe we could try and find something soft to use as bedding too? My back is aching from lying on the wood floor.
Anthony: If we keep going like this we'll have a good looking shelter to live in, I can't believe we've accomplished so much over so little time.
Marissa: I can, it's so tiring building things, I'd much rather be cooking, it's just a shame there is nothing to cook right now.
Anthony: That could all change if we win something tomorrow at the challenge, I hope there is food...
Marissa: Me too! I'd love a decent meal.
Shelby: So I told him either I go or the golf clubs go and he just sat there smirking at me, as he usually did whenever I said anything to him, so I took the clubs and his silly little hat and I threw them out of the office window, haha! You should have seen his face! He was so irate his face turned bright red! It looked like a tomato! XD
Shelby: And I always remember what he said next to me, he said "If you wanted my attention dear, maybe you should have been a golf course?" I was absolutley livid of course, I was speechless that he could be so snide after I had poured my heart out to him...
Damian: Woah! Nearly hit the floor then, feeling kinda woozy. I hope nobody saw that.
Damian - Mausoleum Clerk
Damian: I nearly took a tumble on my trip to the water, I haven't been feeling so good all day if I'm honest. Maybe it's the heat, maybe it's the lack of food? Yeah, that must be it... I'm just glad nobody saw me, if they did they'd probably think I'm some kind of weak link and that I can't cut it out here. I just gotta keep being strong and not show any weakness cuz I know the others are looking for any excuse at the moment to vote people out and I don't want my name being written down.
Damian: It's so peaceful just sitting here, I could do this all day! Anything beats doing chores back home.
Banyan Tribe - Night 4
Yazmin: We should try and finish our shelter sometime soon, tomorrow I'll climb the trees and get us some palm fonds for the roof, If it rains again we are going to get soaked.
Nikita: Good idea, maybe we could try and find something soft to use as bedding too? My back is aching from lying on the wood floor.
Anthony: If we keep going like this we'll have a good looking shelter to live in, I can't believe we've accomplished so much over so little time.
Marissa: I can, it's so tiring building things, I'd much rather be cooking, it's just a shame there is nothing to cook right now.
Anthony: That could all change if we win something tomorrow at the challenge, I hope there is food...
Marissa: Me too! I'd love a decent meal.
Shelby: So I told him either I go or the golf clubs go and he just sat there smirking at me, as he usually did whenever I said anything to him, so I took the clubs and his silly little hat and I threw them out of the office window, haha! You should have seen his face! He was so irate his face turned bright red! It looked like a tomato! XD
Shelby: And I always remember what he said next to me, he said "If you wanted my attention dear, maybe you should have been a golf course?" I was absolutley livid of course, I was speechless that he could be so snide after I had poured my heart out to him...
Jerry: What happened next?
Shelby: I left of course, I had an appointment with my hairdresser that afternoon. Later that night I had a phonecall, it was the police to tell me that he'd died in a supicious accident.
Jerry: Suspicious? In what way?
Shelby: Oh, something about his office door vanishing, he couldn't get out you see so he starved to death. Tragic I know...
Jerry: Well, that is mighty strange. In all my years of being a doctor I'd never heard of that happeneing before now.
Yazmin: That does sound pretty far fetched...
Nikita: I don't believe a word of it! What a load of garbage!
Shelby: Do you take offense to my storytelling young lady?
Nikita: Yeah, I do! Cuz that's all it is, a story.
Shelby: What are you accusing me of?
Nikita: Oh, nothing, just being a big fat liar that's all.
Shelby: How dare you?! You have no proof! You are probably one of those people who read the gossip magazines and believe every word, fake news is everywhere darling, you need to learn to not make judegement against people you hardly know!
Nikita: Sorry, but I don't have to listen to this, I'm going for a walk.
Yazmin: Are you okay? Do you need me to come with you?
Nikita: No I'm fine, I just need some fresh air and to get away from camp.
Nikita: Anthony? Could I like chat to you for a sec?
Anthony: Sure, whatever you need...
Nikita: I had to tell somebody, it's been eating away at me for days and I trust you the most out of everyone here.
Anthony: That's real kind of you to say Nik, I'm glad you think you can trust me, I trust you too.
Nikita: In that case, can I tell you a secret?
Anthony: Sure, go for it! I always love to hear a bit of juicy gossip.
Nikita: I recognised Shelby straight away on Day 1, she's the politician woman who was accused of murdering her husband. Something about her locking him in his office with no doors and windows and watching him starve to death, police looked into it for months...
Anthony: You got to be kidding me?! Seriously? No way!
Nikita: Yes way, I wrote an article myself about it in the local newspaper, she is so suss it's unreal! The police could never prove anything, she had help in covering it up they reckoned but she disappeared from the public eye not long afterwards, I'd say that's proof of guilt right there.
Anthony: Thanks for letting me know about it, I had no idea!
Nikita - Investigative Reporter
Nikita: After I shared what I knew about Shelby with Anthony, I think we really built up some trust between us. He's a nice guy... I mean, he's smart and sexy, smexy? but not only that, he's someone who I know will make a good ally later down the line. It pays to have good connections in journalism as well as Simvivor and if I can convince people that they can trust me too then I think I'll be set.
Devin: You know, I reckon they have a showmance going on...
Shelby: A showmance? Out here? It's only been a few days, That's hardly enough time to form a relationship with someone.
Devin: I beg to differ, out here in the wild makes you think differently, act differently. It's probably all the fresh air that's done it, it's gone to their heads. That's why they keep disappearing together.
Shelby: Same thing happened to my husband, ever since he took up golfing I swear he was having an affair with his secretary.
Devin: If they are a couple then that could make them really dangerous. We need to vote them out ASAP.
Shelby: How so? We don't even know if they are together yet.
Devin: Are you blind? Have you seen the way they look at eachother? I swear they were even holding hands earlier! Have you any idea how bad a power couple in this game can be? If you don't deal with it now you'll be sorry, mark my words.
Yazmin: You two seriously need to grow up, you are acting worse than a couple of high school kids! So what if they are together? I think it's sweet. :3
Shelby: Did we ask for your opinion, darling?
Yazmin: I'll say whatever I like "darling" it's a free island.
Shelby: Hmmpf!
Yazmin: Yeah, how'd you like them beans?
Nikita: We get on really well, right?
Anthony: Yeah, I'd say you are one of my friends out here.
Nikita: Do you think we'd like, ever be something more than friends? ;)
Anthony: Uh, I dunno, we only just...
Nikita: But like, have you got a girlfriend or anything? It's okay you can tell me if you have, I don't mind.
Anthony: Look, Nik, I don't know how to tell you this but...
Nikita: But what?
Anthony: Eh, well... I'll tell you some other time, let's just get back to camp.
Will: Phew! What the heck is that smell?! Smells like an animal has died or something!
Will takes a few steps forwards and walks straight through poop.
Will: Oh! That's just great! Thanks a lot! These are my best shoes!
Alec: Hey Jules, back from your daily swim huh?
Julia: You bet ya!
Alec: Looking like a total diamond as always.
Julia: Well, I'd say more of a diamond in the rough. XD But thanks anyways!
Alec: No probs, you know where I am if you need any more compliments. ;)
Julia: Yep! Surfing the waves as per usual.
Will: Julia we need to talk.
Julia: Sure sweetie, what about? and what's that smell?
Will: Somebody has been pooping near camp and it's getting kind of annoying. If they keep doing it and nobody says anything then we are gonna be in deep trouble, you know what production said about not using the bathroom near camp because of the animals.
Julia: *sigh* Don't worry, I'll clean it up, I'm used to it.
Will: I'm afraid that's not good enough, we can't keep acting like it's nothing, we need to comfront whoever is doing it, they need to be told.
Julia: Who do you think it is? We can't just go around accusing anybody, might upset some people.
Will: Well, I know it's not me and it's not you I'm guessing, so that leaves both the boys...
Julia: or the girls? Could be one of the girls.
Will: Yep, I'm gonna hold a tribe meeting tomorrow about it.
Julia: Well, good luck with that because I'm not telling them, it's far too embarissing to be talking about people's bathroom habits.
Will: Normally I'd let it go over my head but if people are gonna act in this way then I'm gonna have to take charge and set things straight. Can't be acting like a bunch of animals out here, even if we are living like them.
Julia: No, I completley agree, if it's causing a problem for the tribe then this needs sorting and fast.
Will: Speaking of the tribe, we need to discuss about what happened at the last tribal council.
Julia: That again? Seriously Will you do insist on keeping on about the most trivial of things.
Will: It's not trivial Julia, it's serious business! I don't know whose side you are on and I need to know answers.
Julia: Look, whoever's side I'm on doesn't matter, I vote however I see fit and whatever way I think will make the tribe stronger, if you don't like it you can go and rub two sticks together. I'm gonna go deal with that mess, see you later...
Will - Business Manager
Will: Even when I talk to her face to face about Tribal she still doesn't want to discuss it with me, It sucks because it makes me think that she's in tight with the younger guys on the tribe and means that I'm in the minority. Being in business I'm not used to having no control, I like being in a position of power and it's tough not knowing where you stand with people. I regret voting for Madeline now... I was way off track with where I thought the votes were going, I should have voted for Rachel and forced a tie, that way we might have come out of that first tribal with the numbers.
Alec: Yo Rachel, are you stoked for today's challenge?
Rachel: Totally, like we need to win this one, I don't want to have to lose somebody else.
Alec: But if we do... we are still in an alliance, right?
Rachel: Of course dude! Me and you partying to the end, I swear, pinky promise.
Alec: What about Madeline though?
Rachel: Yeah, her too, just the three of us.
Alec: And Julia?
Rachel: Look dude, you can't keep everyone around, someobody gotta go if we lose. XD
Marissa: Hmm... What's this? Guys! We got treemail!
*Marissa reads out the note*
Marissa: It says to bring a healthy appetite, I hope that means something to eat.
Fraiser: Come on in guys!
Fraiser: Welcome to your second Immunity challenge. Banyan I'll take back the Immunity idol from you...
Once again, Immunity is back up for grabs!
For todays challenge you'll be feasting on some local delicacies, they may not your ideal meal but in a pinch this stuff will keep you from starving to death if stranded in the wild... you know I once survived 4 days in the Simahari desert with nothing but a pocket full of worms and a toothbrush. Hehe, they were slimey, wriggly little things and they were always getting everywhere... anyways, moving on, for every exotic food you eat you'll earn a point for your tribe so think twice before passing on a dish because it could be the difference between your tribe winning and losing.
It's not just Immunity you'll be playing for today, you'll also be playing for a collection of fishing gear: a spear, a collapsible fishing rod and a box of bait. Along with that already vital bit of survival kit the winning tribe will also have a brand new fishing boat delivered to your camp! A lot at stake here so there is all to play for, I'll give you a minute to stratergize and then we'll begin...
The Banyan Tribe had one extra tribemember and so chose to sit Devin out of the challenge.
First up for Cucaroo we have Tyler and for Banyan Shelby, welcome to Fraiser's good ol' fashioned Island eatery!
On the menu today we have a vomit fruit, a whole one each. Commonly known around these parts as the Noni fruit or the Cheese fruit. Now you can probably guess why it's called a Vomit fruit from the smell and the taste... well the taste doesn't get any better I'm afraid but you are gonna have to be brave if you want to score a point for your tribes. Ready? Go!
Both castaways are quick to start eating but Tyler soon feels the effects of the fruit.
Tyler: Yuck! That's nasty! I don't feel so good man... I think I'm gonna...
Fraiser: You gotta keep it down or it don't count, no extra points for puking on my nice clean counters.
Tyler: Nope I can do it, my eyes are watering though bro.
Shelby: A piece of cake darling, I've eaten worse at many a resteraunt in the tri-city area, believe me.
Fraiser: Well done guys, a point for each tribe! 1-1!
Our next course, mashed sea slug guts. Competiting for Cucaroo is Rachel! and for Banyan it's Jerry!
Rachel eats the guts cautiously, she's trying not to vomit.
Jerry takes one spoonful and stops in his tracks...
Jerry: I can't do it Fraiser, it's making my insides feel all peculiar, it just tastes slimey and gross. If you can finish a bowl of that crud young lady then you deserve a medal.
Rachel sheepishly finishes the rest of her bowl, without acknowledging Jerry she sits back down.
Fraiser: Jerry passes on the Slug guts and I don't blame him, Rachel earning another point for Cucaroo! 2-1! Keep it up guys!
Next up for you two gentleman, a roasted bush rat. You probably seen a few of these little fealls scurrying around your camp at night.
Gregg: Rat? No problem I can do Rat, not that much different to eating possum, aslong as it aint bugs...
Gregg: Om nom nom!
Will: You are an animal! No way I'm eating a rat! It's still got some fur left on it!
Fraiser: Gonna need to see an empty mouth for this to count Gregg, no hiding it now.
Gregg sticks out his tongue in a playful manner.
That's a point to Banyan! We are tied 2-2! You sure you want to pass on this Will?
Will: I wouldn't eat that rat for a Million Simoleons.
Fraiser: Well, that's good because all I can offer you is Jerry's leftover bowl of sea slug guts.
Will: Again, I'll pass, don't expect a good review from me.
Fraiser: Sorry about that, we'll inform the chef.
Fraiser: This next course is going to take a bit of preperation...
Just gonna pop this into the blender and churn it all up.
Get rid of all the nasty lumps for you ladies... So how are you enjoying the weather?
Nikita: It's okay I guess.
Fraiser: Just gonna mix it up and add a few of my 11 secret herbs and spices, this recipe has been handed down from generation to generation of my family you know? My mother taught me how to make this shortly after being violently sick.
This here is a tall glass of blended grasshoppers and mealworms, enjoy!
Julia chugs it down without hesitation.
Nikita: You go granny!
Julia: Thank you dear, if I drink it quick I'm hoping it'll be less difficult... oh dear, that's quite slimey... I hope I don't... *gulp*
Nikita: My turn! Bottoms up!
Nikita slowly drinks the drink.
Julia: That's very brave of you, I'd hold my nose if I were you, these little things stink! *burp!* Ooops, excuse me!
Fraiser: You are right, they do stink... Bleh! That's 3-3, we are still tied! Next up, Damian and Marissa! For you guys we have a plate of festering pig brains!
Damian takes a single spoonful.
Damian: Nope, no way! I can't do this I'm gonna be... *retch* Out of my way!
Damian runs behind the trees and is violently sick.
Fraiser: No points earned there for Cucaroo, Damian fails to keep it down. Look away now if you are of the squeemish nature...
Damian - Mausoleum Clerk
Damian: *retch* Could this day... *retch* get any worse? I fell like such a... *retch* for letting my tribe down.
Marissa eats the whole plate of food without stopping.
Fraiser: Marissa is a machine, she's practically licking the plate! Impressive!
Marissa: Don't know what he's complaing about, that's the best food I've had in days! I could eat another helping...
Fraiser: Sorry we haven't budgeted for that, Banyan leads 4-3!
Okay tribes, this is it, we've come down to our final dish, a live Island tree grub. Some say they taste like peanut butter, others say they taste like puke, all I can say is that you need to eat one of these little guys to win. Banyan earning a point here would be an automatic win, Cucaroo earning a point here would force us into the tie breaker. Let's see what happens, Madeline, Yazmin, you guys are up, please join me at the counter.
Okay ladies, on my go, you are going to reach into the tank and eat the grub, first to finish wins the point.
Madeline: Oh my god! That poor defenseless little wormy! You can't be serious? I'm not going to eat him! That would be just cruel!
Fraiser: Well, um... you are going to have to in order for your tribe to have a chance at winning.
Madeline: Then I refuse, sorry but my tribe will understand...
Fraiser: So you are chickening out?
Madeline: Chickening out?! No! I just refuse to eat a worm on live TV for your sick and twisted idea of entertainment!
Fraiser: Hey! I didn't come up with this, talk to the producers!
Madeline: In my eyes, you are just as bad for going along with the murder of innocent little creatures! You should be ashamed of yourself!
Madeline runs off down the beach.
Fraiser: Well, that was awkward... sorry about that viewers, so uh... Yazmin, if you eat the grub then your tribe wins. You up to the challenge?
Yazmin picks up the grub and psychs herself up to eat it, she appears nervous...
Fraiser: Is she gonna do it?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Yazmin eats the grub in one bite.
Yazmin: *pokes out tongue* Bleh! Gone, see?
Fraiser: Banyan wins Immunity for the second time in a row!
Fraiser: Well castaways, that was a very mentally taxing Immunity challenge for both of us. I'm gonna have to clear away all the plates and do the washing up, Banyan enjoy the night off, don't forget your Fishing gear reward on your way out. Cucaroo, I'll see you again for the second time at Tribal Council tomorrow, goodnight!
Fraiser: Also, someone might wanna go after Madeline, she could probably get lost or eaten...
The two tribes head back to camp, Banyan grabs their reward and eagerly awaits to try out their new fishing boat. Cucuaroo on the otherhand leaves the challenge arena dejected, nervous about a second visit to Tribal.
Shelby: Oh, something about his office door vanishing, he couldn't get out you see so he starved to death. Tragic I know...
Jerry: Well, that is mighty strange. In all my years of being a doctor I'd never heard of that happeneing before now.
Yazmin: That does sound pretty far fetched...
Nikita: I don't believe a word of it! What a load of garbage!
Shelby: Do you take offense to my storytelling young lady?
Nikita: Yeah, I do! Cuz that's all it is, a story.
Shelby: What are you accusing me of?
Nikita: Oh, nothing, just being a big fat liar that's all.
Shelby: How dare you?! You have no proof! You are probably one of those people who read the gossip magazines and believe every word, fake news is everywhere darling, you need to learn to not make judegement against people you hardly know!
Nikita: Sorry, but I don't have to listen to this, I'm going for a walk.
Yazmin: Are you okay? Do you need me to come with you?
Nikita: No I'm fine, I just need some fresh air and to get away from camp.
Nikita: Anthony? Could I like chat to you for a sec?
Anthony: Sure, whatever you need...
Nikita: I had to tell somebody, it's been eating away at me for days and I trust you the most out of everyone here.
Anthony: That's real kind of you to say Nik, I'm glad you think you can trust me, I trust you too.
Nikita: In that case, can I tell you a secret?
Anthony: Sure, go for it! I always love to hear a bit of juicy gossip.
Nikita: I recognised Shelby straight away on Day 1, she's the politician woman who was accused of murdering her husband. Something about her locking him in his office with no doors and windows and watching him starve to death, police looked into it for months...
Anthony: You got to be kidding me?! Seriously? No way!
Nikita: Yes way, I wrote an article myself about it in the local newspaper, she is so suss it's unreal! The police could never prove anything, she had help in covering it up they reckoned but she disappeared from the public eye not long afterwards, I'd say that's proof of guilt right there.
Anthony: Thanks for letting me know about it, I had no idea!
Nikita - Investigative Reporter
Nikita: After I shared what I knew about Shelby with Anthony, I think we really built up some trust between us. He's a nice guy... I mean, he's smart and sexy, smexy? but not only that, he's someone who I know will make a good ally later down the line. It pays to have good connections in journalism as well as Simvivor and if I can convince people that they can trust me too then I think I'll be set.
Devin: You know, I reckon they have a showmance going on...
Shelby: A showmance? Out here? It's only been a few days, That's hardly enough time to form a relationship with someone.
Devin: I beg to differ, out here in the wild makes you think differently, act differently. It's probably all the fresh air that's done it, it's gone to their heads. That's why they keep disappearing together.
Shelby: Same thing happened to my husband, ever since he took up golfing I swear he was having an affair with his secretary.
Devin: If they are a couple then that could make them really dangerous. We need to vote them out ASAP.
Shelby: How so? We don't even know if they are together yet.
Devin: Are you blind? Have you seen the way they look at eachother? I swear they were even holding hands earlier! Have you any idea how bad a power couple in this game can be? If you don't deal with it now you'll be sorry, mark my words.
Yazmin: You two seriously need to grow up, you are acting worse than a couple of high school kids! So what if they are together? I think it's sweet. :3
Shelby: Did we ask for your opinion, darling?
Yazmin: I'll say whatever I like "darling" it's a free island.
Shelby: Hmmpf!
Yazmin: Yeah, how'd you like them beans?
Nikita: We get on really well, right?
Anthony: Yeah, I'd say you are one of my friends out here.
Nikita: Do you think we'd like, ever be something more than friends? ;)
Anthony: Uh, I dunno, we only just...
Nikita: But like, have you got a girlfriend or anything? It's okay you can tell me if you have, I don't mind.
Anthony: Look, Nik, I don't know how to tell you this but...
Nikita: But what?
Anthony: Eh, well... I'll tell you some other time, let's just get back to camp.
Cucaroo Tribe - Day 5
Will: Phew! What the heck is that smell?! Smells like an animal has died or something!
Will takes a few steps forwards and walks straight through poop.
Will: Oh! That's just great! Thanks a lot! These are my best shoes!
Alec: Hey Jules, back from your daily swim huh?
Julia: You bet ya!
Alec: Looking like a total diamond as always.
Julia: Well, I'd say more of a diamond in the rough. XD But thanks anyways!
Alec: No probs, you know where I am if you need any more compliments. ;)
Julia: Yep! Surfing the waves as per usual.
Will: Julia we need to talk.
Julia: Sure sweetie, what about? and what's that smell?
Will: Somebody has been pooping near camp and it's getting kind of annoying. If they keep doing it and nobody says anything then we are gonna be in deep trouble, you know what production said about not using the bathroom near camp because of the animals.
Julia: *sigh* Don't worry, I'll clean it up, I'm used to it.
Will: I'm afraid that's not good enough, we can't keep acting like it's nothing, we need to comfront whoever is doing it, they need to be told.
Julia: Who do you think it is? We can't just go around accusing anybody, might upset some people.
Will: Well, I know it's not me and it's not you I'm guessing, so that leaves both the boys...
Julia: or the girls? Could be one of the girls.
Will: Yep, I'm gonna hold a tribe meeting tomorrow about it.
Julia: Well, good luck with that because I'm not telling them, it's far too embarissing to be talking about people's bathroom habits.
Will: Normally I'd let it go over my head but if people are gonna act in this way then I'm gonna have to take charge and set things straight. Can't be acting like a bunch of animals out here, even if we are living like them.
Julia: No, I completley agree, if it's causing a problem for the tribe then this needs sorting and fast.
Will: Speaking of the tribe, we need to discuss about what happened at the last tribal council.
Julia: That again? Seriously Will you do insist on keeping on about the most trivial of things.
Will: It's not trivial Julia, it's serious business! I don't know whose side you are on and I need to know answers.
Julia: Look, whoever's side I'm on doesn't matter, I vote however I see fit and whatever way I think will make the tribe stronger, if you don't like it you can go and rub two sticks together. I'm gonna go deal with that mess, see you later...
Will - Business Manager
Will: Even when I talk to her face to face about Tribal she still doesn't want to discuss it with me, It sucks because it makes me think that she's in tight with the younger guys on the tribe and means that I'm in the minority. Being in business I'm not used to having no control, I like being in a position of power and it's tough not knowing where you stand with people. I regret voting for Madeline now... I was way off track with where I thought the votes were going, I should have voted for Rachel and forced a tie, that way we might have come out of that first tribal with the numbers.
Alec: Yo Rachel, are you stoked for today's challenge?
Rachel: Totally, like we need to win this one, I don't want to have to lose somebody else.
Alec: But if we do... we are still in an alliance, right?
Rachel: Of course dude! Me and you partying to the end, I swear, pinky promise.
Alec: What about Madeline though?
Rachel: Yeah, her too, just the three of us.
Alec: And Julia?
Rachel: Look dude, you can't keep everyone around, someobody gotta go if we lose. XD
Marissa: Hmm... What's this? Guys! We got treemail!
*Marissa reads out the note*
Marissa: It says to bring a healthy appetite, I hope that means something to eat.
Fraiser: Come on in guys!
Fraiser: Welcome to your second Immunity challenge. Banyan I'll take back the Immunity idol from you...
Once again, Immunity is back up for grabs!
For todays challenge you'll be feasting on some local delicacies, they may not your ideal meal but in a pinch this stuff will keep you from starving to death if stranded in the wild... you know I once survived 4 days in the Simahari desert with nothing but a pocket full of worms and a toothbrush. Hehe, they were slimey, wriggly little things and they were always getting everywhere... anyways, moving on, for every exotic food you eat you'll earn a point for your tribe so think twice before passing on a dish because it could be the difference between your tribe winning and losing.
It's not just Immunity you'll be playing for today, you'll also be playing for a collection of fishing gear: a spear, a collapsible fishing rod and a box of bait. Along with that already vital bit of survival kit the winning tribe will also have a brand new fishing boat delivered to your camp! A lot at stake here so there is all to play for, I'll give you a minute to stratergize and then we'll begin...
The Banyan Tribe had one extra tribemember and so chose to sit Devin out of the challenge.
First up for Cucaroo we have Tyler and for Banyan Shelby, welcome to Fraiser's good ol' fashioned Island eatery!
On the menu today we have a vomit fruit, a whole one each. Commonly known around these parts as the Noni fruit or the Cheese fruit. Now you can probably guess why it's called a Vomit fruit from the smell and the taste... well the taste doesn't get any better I'm afraid but you are gonna have to be brave if you want to score a point for your tribes. Ready? Go!
Both castaways are quick to start eating but Tyler soon feels the effects of the fruit.
Tyler: Yuck! That's nasty! I don't feel so good man... I think I'm gonna...
Fraiser: You gotta keep it down or it don't count, no extra points for puking on my nice clean counters.
Tyler: Nope I can do it, my eyes are watering though bro.
Shelby: A piece of cake darling, I've eaten worse at many a resteraunt in the tri-city area, believe me.
Fraiser: Well done guys, a point for each tribe! 1-1!
Our next course, mashed sea slug guts. Competiting for Cucaroo is Rachel! and for Banyan it's Jerry!
Rachel eats the guts cautiously, she's trying not to vomit.
Jerry takes one spoonful and stops in his tracks...
Jerry: I can't do it Fraiser, it's making my insides feel all peculiar, it just tastes slimey and gross. If you can finish a bowl of that crud young lady then you deserve a medal.
Rachel sheepishly finishes the rest of her bowl, without acknowledging Jerry she sits back down.
Fraiser: Jerry passes on the Slug guts and I don't blame him, Rachel earning another point for Cucaroo! 2-1! Keep it up guys!
Next up for you two gentleman, a roasted bush rat. You probably seen a few of these little fealls scurrying around your camp at night.
Gregg: Rat? No problem I can do Rat, not that much different to eating possum, aslong as it aint bugs...
Gregg: Om nom nom!
Will: You are an animal! No way I'm eating a rat! It's still got some fur left on it!
Fraiser: Gonna need to see an empty mouth for this to count Gregg, no hiding it now.
Gregg sticks out his tongue in a playful manner.
That's a point to Banyan! We are tied 2-2! You sure you want to pass on this Will?
Will: I wouldn't eat that rat for a Million Simoleons.
Fraiser: Well, that's good because all I can offer you is Jerry's leftover bowl of sea slug guts.
Will: Again, I'll pass, don't expect a good review from me.
Fraiser: Sorry about that, we'll inform the chef.
Fraiser: This next course is going to take a bit of preperation...
Just gonna pop this into the blender and churn it all up.
Get rid of all the nasty lumps for you ladies... So how are you enjoying the weather?
Nikita: It's okay I guess.
Fraiser: Just gonna mix it up and add a few of my 11 secret herbs and spices, this recipe has been handed down from generation to generation of my family you know? My mother taught me how to make this shortly after being violently sick.
This here is a tall glass of blended grasshoppers and mealworms, enjoy!
Julia chugs it down without hesitation.
Nikita: You go granny!
Julia: Thank you dear, if I drink it quick I'm hoping it'll be less difficult... oh dear, that's quite slimey... I hope I don't... *gulp*
Nikita: My turn! Bottoms up!
Nikita slowly drinks the drink.
Julia: That's very brave of you, I'd hold my nose if I were you, these little things stink! *burp!* Ooops, excuse me!
Fraiser: You are right, they do stink... Bleh! That's 3-3, we are still tied! Next up, Damian and Marissa! For you guys we have a plate of festering pig brains!
Damian takes a single spoonful.
Damian: Nope, no way! I can't do this I'm gonna be... *retch* Out of my way!
Damian runs behind the trees and is violently sick.
Fraiser: No points earned there for Cucaroo, Damian fails to keep it down. Look away now if you are of the squeemish nature...
Damian - Mausoleum Clerk
Damian: *retch* Could this day... *retch* get any worse? I fell like such a... *retch* for letting my tribe down.
Marissa eats the whole plate of food without stopping.
Fraiser: Marissa is a machine, she's practically licking the plate! Impressive!
Marissa: Don't know what he's complaing about, that's the best food I've had in days! I could eat another helping...
Fraiser: Sorry we haven't budgeted for that, Banyan leads 4-3!
Okay tribes, this is it, we've come down to our final dish, a live Island tree grub. Some say they taste like peanut butter, others say they taste like puke, all I can say is that you need to eat one of these little guys to win. Banyan earning a point here would be an automatic win, Cucaroo earning a point here would force us into the tie breaker. Let's see what happens, Madeline, Yazmin, you guys are up, please join me at the counter.
Okay ladies, on my go, you are going to reach into the tank and eat the grub, first to finish wins the point.
Madeline: Oh my god! That poor defenseless little wormy! You can't be serious? I'm not going to eat him! That would be just cruel!
Fraiser: Well, um... you are going to have to in order for your tribe to have a chance at winning.
Madeline: Then I refuse, sorry but my tribe will understand...
Fraiser: So you are chickening out?
Madeline: Chickening out?! No! I just refuse to eat a worm on live TV for your sick and twisted idea of entertainment!
Fraiser: Hey! I didn't come up with this, talk to the producers!
Madeline: In my eyes, you are just as bad for going along with the murder of innocent little creatures! You should be ashamed of yourself!
Madeline runs off down the beach.
Fraiser: Well, that was awkward... sorry about that viewers, so uh... Yazmin, if you eat the grub then your tribe wins. You up to the challenge?
Yazmin picks up the grub and psychs herself up to eat it, she appears nervous...
Fraiser: Is she gonna do it?
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Yazmin eats the grub in one bite.
Yazmin: *pokes out tongue* Bleh! Gone, see?
Fraiser: Banyan wins Immunity for the second time in a row!
Fraiser: Well castaways, that was a very mentally taxing Immunity challenge for both of us. I'm gonna have to clear away all the plates and do the washing up, Banyan enjoy the night off, don't forget your Fishing gear reward on your way out. Cucaroo, I'll see you again for the second time at Tribal Council tomorrow, goodnight!
Fraiser: Also, someone might wanna go after Madeline, she could probably get lost or eaten...
The two tribes head back to camp, Banyan grabs their reward and eagerly awaits to try out their new fishing boat. Cucuaroo on the otherhand leaves the challenge arena dejected, nervous about a second visit to Tribal.
