Here we go for tonight’s Thanksgiving Survivor 2013 episode. We’re down to seven castaways left which means one more heads to Jury and another heads to Redemption Island. Let’s find out who gets cut!
Back at the Kasama camp we’ll get the fallout from the latest vote-out but with even Ciera voting out her own mother there shouldn’t be any animosity floating around. That also means the final pair on Survivor Blood Vs Water has been split. Of course Laura M could get back in the game yet again so maybe there’s a chance for a reunion. Well, unless Ciera is the next to follow…
Over at Redemption Island Laura arrives and joins Tina and Vytas. They’ll prepare for tonight’s RI challenge and from the preview clip it looks like Tina could be in trouble here.

Jeff brings in the players to the Redemption Island arena. The players race to retrieve four cubes from a netted tunnel. Vytas and Laura are making quick work of the challenge while Tina lags behind.
Vytas and Laura are neck and neck as they begin to work on the puzzle portion. They must arrange the cubes so there are no repeating colors on any one side. Tina has now caught up but Laura finishes her puzzle leaving Vytas to play against Tina.
Wow. Laura is giving Tina precise instructions on how to arrange her cubes. That’s tough on Vytas! It’s very close but Tina pulls it out just a second ahead of Vytas. Sooo close. Vytas refuses a hug from Laura after her efforts against him.
Laura gives her clue to Ciera, of course, but Ciera decides to burn it. Considering the Hidden Immunity Idol has been gone for awhile it’s no big deal, but Ciera doesn’t know that!
Back at the camp the Newbies are starting to come together and figure out a plan to take control and turn on Tyson. It seems like such a smart plan I’m waiting for it to fall apart!
Sure enough, it falls apart right away. Caleb, Hayden, and Katie are on board, but Ciera is not. Ciera says she’s in on the plan but then runs to Tyson and spills the beans. Dumb, dumb, dumb. *Shakes fist in the air.* Ciera could have been 1 of 4 Newbies sticking together, instead she’s going for being 1 of 4 with the other 3 being Vets. Gee, I wonder who they’ll cut first?
The rest of the Newbies catch on to Ciera’s betrayal and strongly suspect the vote will not go their way after all. Immunity is important as always.
Tonight’s challenge is “Wrist Assured.” They’ll hold on to a respectively weighed bucket (25% of their body weight) until they can’t keep a hold on it and the bucket drops. Last person standing wins immunity. Oh, but there’s a twist. Jeff tempts them with a buffet of bbq foods to enjoy if they sit out.
Castaways not competing: Tyson, Gervase, and Ciera. The rest will compete. Craziness.
The sane players are holding on strong though Katie’s bucket starts to slip awhile. Remember that in the Dream Team test run a smaller woman won out over the bigger guys.
Oops. Katie’s bucket drops and she’s out. Meanwhile Jeff is having fun egging on the eaters while the competitors suffer. Hayden complains that his hands are hurting as his bucket drops half way down, but he soon pulls his back to the top.
Now Caleb is out after he says that he can’t hold on anymore. That means it’s just Hayden and Monica left in the game. Hayden has yet to win any individual comps while Monica has two under her belt. Hayden keeps letting his bucket slip but tries to hold on.
That’s it. Hayden’s bucket drops. Monica wins Immunity yet again. Wow. She’s a comp beast! Someone is about to go to Redemption Island, but it won’t be Monica!
Now back to camp Hayden and Caleb decide they need to act and get back with Tyson. They say it was Ciera trying to get them against each other and Tyson agrees. Now Tyson doesn’t know who to trust, but he is worried about both sides. Ciera’s big mistake could become an even bigger mistake real soon!
Kasama heads to Tribal Council. This should be good! Tyson was talking about using his Hidden Immunity Idol as a back up plan. The tribe does their chat and things don’t look good for Ciera. Jeff tallies the votes and sure enough, Tyson decides to play his Immunity Idol. Any votes cast against Tyson will not count.
The votes: Ciera, Caleb, Ciera, Ciera, Caleb, Caleb, … oh it’s a tie so far … Caleb!
Wow that was a great surprise. Caleb was voted off Survivor Blood Vs Water tonight. Craziness. Do you think Kasama made the right move? Share your thoughts!
