Episode 5: Your World Will Turn, Your Head Will Spin...

Previously on Survivor:

The Survivors received tree mail telling them they should have "done their homework" for the next move they would be involved in. After some clever research, many players suspected that a tribal switch would be happening. Later, they were informed that the tribes would indeed be switched up, going from three tribes down to two. Josh and Michael were randomly chosen as captains, and in a school yard pick'em, the following tribes were chosen:

Rutilus

Josh
Salma
Bassil
Ben
Mason
Detric
Michelle O
Sarah C
Tyler

Lupus

Michael
Weston
Alex
Sarah B
Hannah
AZ
Michelle P
Sean
Lauren

Joseph was the last person left not picked, and it was revealed that he would join the tribe that lost the next Immunity Challenge, therefore making him safe for the moment. Additionally, he received a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol.

At the Immunity Challenge, Rutilus came in at a disadvantage because three of their members, Salma, Bassil, and Sarah C, had the flu. The two tribes had to perform a number of different tasks, including moving colored balls using only their face, and carrying a weighted box around the outside of the Quad. Josh took a nasty spill during his leg, but quickly recovered. However, the Rutilus Tribe as a whole couldn't figure out their riddle, and lost when Lupus solved the riddle and created their human pyramid first.

With little time to strategize, the members of Rutilus had to scramble to figure out who would be booted next from their tribe. At Tribal Council, Tyler and Mason shared the sentiment that being in a new tribe was almost like starting anew with the social aspect of the game. Salma said that in her opinion the illnesses within the tribe had nothing to do with the loss, and it all came down to the puzzle once again. When the votes were tallied, two main targets, Mason and Sarah C, became apparent, but Sarah received the majority and was sent packing. 18 are left. Who will be voted out next?
