Episode 6: Different Perspectives

Previously on Survivor:

The players met for their first Reward Challenge as new tribes. They were tested in a simple game of memory, but only one tribe member could see the board at a time, forcing the tribes use careful communication. The teams struggled due to some players looking at the board from different perspectives, but in the end Lupus pulled out another victory, in part due to Alex's impressive memory. Rutilus then had to pick one player on Lupus to give a clue to a new Hidden Immunity Idol, and they chose Alex.

At the Immunity Challenge, the Survivors' physical abilities were tested in a relay race, which included wheelbarrow and piggyback legs. Lupus' advantage from the Reward Challenge allowed them to force Detric to work on the puzzle rather than compete physically. In the end, it once again came down to the puzzle, but when neither team could produce the correct answer, the tie had to be broken by a wheelbarrow relay. Rutilus started out in the lead, but Detric and Josh ended up stumbling in the anchor leg, which led to yet another Rutilus Tribal Council.

At Tribal Council, the entire tribe made it clear that their current losing streak could be broken. Tyler mentioned that while old tribal lines had some influence on the vote, it ultimately came down to the interactions everyone had with the tribe as a whole. When Salma was asked if she trusted her tribemates, she said she trusted every one of them, and that made the vote very hard. In the end, although Joseph was missing at the challenge, Detric's challenge performance came back to haunt him, and he was voted out in a tight 5-4 split. 17 are left. Who will be voted out next?
