Story

“	A castaway is singled out for their dishonest game, making a clear distinction where the line has been drawn. Also, in tonight's challenge, immunity and reward are on the line.	”
—Episode Synopsis

Day 17

The castaways are informed that there will be a Split Tribal Council, with two players going home. The tribe is divided into two temporary teams of five, who will compete within themselves for an Immunity Necklace at their Tribal Council. In addition, the person who lasts the longest in the challenge will win reward for their team.

Challenges

Reward/Immunity Challenge: Uncomfortably Numb
Each person will balance their feet on a very narrow perch adjusted for their height while holding a handle above their head. If at any point, they let go of the handle or a foot comes off the perch, they are out of the challenge.
Reward: Chicken and beef stew and the right for their team to vote second
Winners: Erika Casupanan (Yellow Team) and Xander Hastings (Blue Team) (As the last person standing, Xander won reward for the Blue Team.)
