Challenges[]

Challenge: Reinventing the Wheel
While one tribe member sits in a cart, four rope handlers will hoist up the cart, allowing them to collect four puzzle wheels. Thereafter, the cart rider will place the wheels on the cart before their tribemates pull them over a bridge. Two tribe members will then dig up planks from a sand pit to build a second bridge. The tribe will continue pulling the cart until the finish mat, where the cart rider will dissemble the wheels and use them to complete a lighthouse puzzle. The first tribe to solve their puzzle wins.
Reward: The right to spin a roulette wheel, where the winners may win boiled eggs, a bag of lentils, beer, soft drinks & peanuts, a chocolate cake, mac & cheese, or a tribal Challenge Advantage.
Additional Stipulation: The winners will pick two members of the losing tribe to share the reward; one of these players will also give the wheel a spin on behalf of the winning tribe.
Winner: Yontau (received bag of lentils; shared with Tejan Pillay and Toni Tebbutt; Toni won mac & cheese for Yontau)

Challenge: TBA
Three members must work together to solve a rope peg puzzle to release a key. They will then use the key to unlock a gate and run across a ramp gauntlet. Once all members have completed the gauntlet and reached a puzzle tower, one tribe member will climb the tower to act as a caller, guiding them to solve a slide puzzle to release letter tiles. The first tribe to spell "OUTWIT, OUTPLAY, OUTLAST" wins.
Winner: Masu

(voting against Seamus) You're taking shots at me and I suppose this is my retaliation.

Final Words[]

ZAS9 seamus bw
Seamus
Yeah, I'm gutted obviously, but as a fan, to go out on a blindside, I did not see this one coming. I'm happy. I don't regret anything this season. I did my best and I got caught speeding, so what can you do but pay the fine? I feel like I've not just closed the book on Survivor but a very dark, dark part of who I used to be.
