Survivor Results: Who Was Voted Off Last Night? 3/8/2017

Ready to find out who was voted off last night in the season premiere of 2017’s Game Changers featuring 20 returning castaways (meet the Survivor 2017 cast here)? Former losers or winners, and there are several of the latter, Jeff Probst is confident these are the people who have the guts to make it happen. Now it’s time to see if he’s right.

We’re picking up with the Survivor 2017 castaways as they’re brought in to the Fiji shores of Mamanuca Islands while Jeff explains what’s brought them together and who they’ll be teaming up with in the two tribes on Survivor Game Changers: Mana and Nuku. Next up: everyone overboard!

The castaways have just a few minutes to grab everything they can from the ship before leaping over to their raft. But wait, there’s more. Both tribes have the chance to race out to a nearby buoy and be the first team to release their own buoy to claim a major toolkit to take back to camp.

Ozzy immediately goes for the toolkit while Mana ignores it until Caleb finally joins him, but it’s likely too late. Yep, Ozzy gets the toolkit for Nuku. Back on the boat Sierra finds a “secret advantage” envelope on the ground and puts that in her back pocket.

As Mana settles in to figure out where to build their camp Tony announces he’s going to go looking for the Idol then takes off squealing in to the jungle. Surprised to find no one is fooling him he starts his search and that’s got tongues wagging back at the Mana camp on whether or not he’s a risk they can keep.

Over at Nuku the toolkit is opened and they’ve got a hammer, nails, a rake, and it’s filled with lots more. We’re also finding out the “secret advantage” for Sierra will grant her immunity at either 13 or 6 castaways left. If she’s voted out before she can use it then she must gift it to another castaway.

Tony has evolved his Spy Shack to the “Spy Bunker.” Yes, he’s going to try underground this year. Troyzan caught him digging and word quickly spread so yeah, that might not work as well this time around for Tony. Mana starts discussing either getting rid of Tony or Caleb, but Caleb gets some cover as several resists that idea being suggested by Ciera.

Immunity Challenge – Round 1:

After settling in at camp the Game Changers castaways will meet up for their first Immunity Challenge combined with the first reward of the season. The tribes will each send seven of their castaways out in to the water on a raft before all racing back to the beach. There the remaining three castaways will wait to assemble a puzzle with the first tribe finishing earning Immunity and this week’s reward. The losing tribe gets a date night with Jeff back at Tribal Council.

Jeff also takes this opportunity before the challenge starts to reveal the Tribal Council vote twist. He explains there will be no re-votes this year at TC. If there’s a tie then they can debate in search of a unanimous agreement, but if that doesn’t happen then they’ll go straight to drawing rocks.

Nuku takes a nice lead after Ozzy takes on the task of racing out to retrieve the keys they’ll need later. He’s up against Hali who can’t keep up with his speed in the water. Mana finally catches up as the two tribes are digging and soon even takes the lead but it doesn’t last long as Nuku advances to the final puzzle.

Nuku Wins Immunity!

Someone is about to be voted off, but it won’t be anyone at Nuku. Mana now has to figure out who needs to go first.

Tribal Council – Round 1:

Mana has settled on Ciera as their target and talks revealed she was the one tossing around targets. The group tells Ciera that it’s going to be Michaela, but that does not go over well with Michaela at all and she gets worked up wanting that to change before they head to Tribal Council.

Jeff reveals the votes: Michaela, Ciera, Ciera, Ciera, Ciera, Ciera, Ciera.

Ciera Eastin is voted off Survivor

Now on to the night’s second round of events with another challenge and Tribal Council ahead!

Moving on to the next round of the Survivor 2017 premiere we’ve got Mana waking up from their loss and subsequent vote-out of Ciera Eastin. We see Tony and Sandra meet up to discuss how no one will let a former winner win this season unless it’s three winners at the end. They agree to team up and watch out for each other.

Oh here we go with Tai and his chickens. Over at Nuku He’s already looking out for making them his new best friends and keeping them alive for the season like he did before. TJ worries this could become a liability for Tai down the road.

Remember that cool, calm Tony who was making a deal with Sandra? Forget it. Tony overhears his name from Sandra talking with Troyzan and he’s thrown right back in to his panic mode. Oh Tony, welcome back guy!

Immunity Challenge – Round 2:

We’ve got a new Survivor competition tonight with “Serpent Turf” that’s going to send six castaways out in the water, over a cage, and dragging back a huge “snake” filled with puzzle pieces. Those will be put back together for a combo puzzle and then leads to a ring toss that flips up paddles to spell “Immunity.” First to finish, well you know. Along with Immunity they’ll get a sweet fishing kit with paddles, nets, and a fish whistle (no, not really).

Nuku has a small lead diving in to the cage while Mana is trying to use leadership over participation. Nuku has their snake and is lifting it back out but that won’t happen easily as this thing ways a lot. Mana still working on untying their snake.

As Jeff puts it, “Varner has been useless this challenge.” Heh. Yeah, Mana is a mess back at their cage while Nuku has all six tiles from the serpent. It gets worse as Mana loses their snake in to the water for a second time and has to reset their walk across the balancing beam.

Nuku is working on their ring toss as Mana focuses on the snake hauling. This shouldn’t take much longer here for Nuku to nab their second Immunity win. No surprise here considering all the pre-challenge targeting talk was back at Mana’s camp. Wait, hold that thought as Malcolm is making an amazing comeback! Malcolm ties it up against JT in the ring toss at six to six…

Nuku Wins Immunity!

It was an impressive comeback attempt by Malcolm for Mana, but it wasn’t enough. We’ll see another Mana tribe member voted off Survivor tonight.

Tribal Council – Round 2:

It’s time to figure things out for Mana. Sandra is pushing for Tony to be the target while Tony’s paranoia is serving him well and has him working hard to weaken Sandra while making Aubry the target. His allies know it’s going to keep getting harder to win challenges if they cut strong players now and that could save him. Varner is pretty excited to have those two battling it out while he watches from the sidelines.

Jeff reveals the votes: Aubry, Tony, Aubry, Tony, Tony, Tony, Tony.

Tony Vlachos was voted off Survivor!

See how each castaway voted in the second round’s Tribal Council:

Wow! Tony calls them “suckers” as he goes to get his torch snuffed. Sandra shouts back at him that’s what he gets for going against her and reminds him to “say hi to Ciera for me.” Heh. What a night!

In the preview for next week’s Survivor Game Changers episode we see it’s time for the Tribe Shuffle already as Jeff tells everyone to drop their Buffs. This isn’t a surprise as we saw Michaela wearing a blue Nuku Buff in the promo the other day which hinted there’d be a likely early switcharoo. Get ready for all that adventure and keep checking back in every weekday in between for more coverage from us!
