I'm probably gonna post this at RGF too, but for now let's leave it here:
Episode 1: "We Should Change His Name To Shady Bear"
3 Tribes of 6 New Players are joined by 3 returnees from past seasons for a second chance. Chris from Stranded in Costa Rica, Papa Bear from Stranded in Namibia, and Hayden from Stranded in Portugal. Chris joined Kirati, which consisted of 6 players from Survivor Philippines (Angie, Artis, Carter, Denise, Lisa, Zane). Papa Bear joined Madhesi, which consisted of 6 players from Survivor Australia (Debb, Jeff, Keith, Kimmi, Mad Dog, Tina). Hayden joined Rai, which consisted of 6 players from Survivor Borneo (BB, Jenna, Ramona, Rich, Sean, Stacey).
Each tribe was tasked with naming an Ambassador for their tribe. As an Ambassador, that person was allowed to private message EVERYONE in the game. Every round before a challenge they had to put up one of their own players for sacrifice. If one Ambassador decided that they wanted one of the players from the other tribes that were up for sacrifice, they would choose that player to join their tribe, while the player that he or she sacrificed would join the opposing tribe. In addition, every time a player switched tribes they were given Immunity for the first TC that their tribe attends. For Kirati, they elected Lisa as an ambassador. For Madhesi, they elected returnee Papa Bear for Ambassador. For Rai, they elected Ramona as their ambassador.
At Rai, Rich quickly formed an alliance between himself/Ramona/Hayden/Sean not even 2 hours into the game. At Kirati, an alliance was formed between Lisa/Denise/Angie/Carter/Artis, who quickly set their sights on Zane as the outcast of Kirati.
At Madhesi, returnee Papa Bear quickly formulated a lie about how he was in a deadly car accident when he was playing his inaugural season and had to be removed from the game, in order to gain the tribe's sympathy. It became quickly apparent that he was up to his old tricks and began to form deals with everyone, including the people not on his tribe. Lisa, however, saw through his bold faced lies and began to tell PB's tribe member Jeff all about how shady Papa Bear is. Jeff proved to himself to be a power player early on when he formed a tight bond with Kimmi and they together made an alliance consisting of themselves, Mad Dog & NuTina (who had to be replaced).
At the Ambassador Ceremony, none of the Ambassadors decided to pick any of the sacrifices. At the Immunity Challenge, Madhesi came in first, Kirati in second, and Rai in last, making them the first tribe to go to Tribal Council.
After the Immunity Challenge, it was revealed that the winning tribe's Ambassador was given 4 clues to the password of the HII, one for himself/herself and the other 3 for each member of the respective tribes. Because Madhesi won the first challenge, Papa Bear was given the clues. He gave them to Carter, BB & Jeff. However, Jeff decided to share the clue with Kimmi in hopes that one of them find the Idol instead of Papa Bear who they both knew was shady due to Lisa's messages about him.
At TC, all of Rai decided to unanimously vote off BB for not being very active in a 6-1 vote.
Episode 2: "Don't Beat A Puppy When It's Down"
At this point, Lisa no longer gives a fuck and decides not only to tell Madhesi about Papa Bear and his shadiness, but also the Rai tribe as well. At the Ambassador Ceremony, no one was once again chosen. At the IC, It was the same results as last time. Papa Bear was once again given the clues, and this time gave his respective tribe's clue to Tina, which further confirmed Jeff's suspicions of him making several deals. Luckily, Papa Bear also gave a clue to Lisa who in turn gave it to Jeff to make sure PB does not get the idol, and Jeff once again shared it with Kimmi. Rai went to their second TC where the majority alliance of Rich/Ramona/Sean/Hayden decided to vote off Jenna, which left a stunned Stacey pondering her position within the tribe.
Episode 3: "I Hate My Tribe"
At the beginning of the round, Zane quits after having a family emergency and is removed from the game. This throws a wrench into Kirati's plans, who wanted to get rid of Zane first. Despite being on the outs, returnee Chris makes a good enough social impression on Lisa/Carter/Artis to the point where they consider getting rid of fellow alliance mate Angie who is quickly getting on their nerves.
After being blindsided by the vote, Stacey has a chat with Papa Bear, in which Papa Bear reveals that he will choose her for his tribe if she goes up for sacrifice. When Stacey tells Ramona about how she wants to be put up for sacrifice so Papa Bear will choose her, Ramona insists that she does not want Stacey to go to Madhesi because she will be another number for Papa Bear, who at this point everyone knows is a shady motherfucker thanks to Lisa. However, Ramona still has a soft spot for Stacey and doesn't want her to get screwed over at Rai (who at this point realizes they're probably never going to win a challenge), so she puts up Stacey for sacrifice and then proceeds to choose Artis (Kirati's sacrifice) to join Rai before Papa Bear can bring Stacey to Madhesi, sending Stacey to Kirati and Artis to Rai.
However, Ramona completely forgot that if a sacrifice is chosen for another tribe they are given immunity for the first Tribal Council they attend, so Rai ends up losing their third straight immunity challenge (Kirati got first), which forces the Rai majority alliance to vote out one of their own. At TC, Rich/Ramona/Hayden decide that Sean is the weak link of the alliance, so he is voted off.
Episode 4: "Wait, I Thought I Was Your #1?"
At the Ambassador Summit, Lisa decides to put up Stacey for sacrifice and sends her back to Rai because she is annoying her and the rest of the Kirati tribe. Lisa ends up picking Rai's sacrifice Hayden for Kirati. At the Immunity Challenge, despite not winning, Rai manages to not get last for the first time this season and is safe from TC. Madhesi comes in last and goes to TC for the first time. Despite knowing that Papa Bear is a shady fuck, the alliance of Jeff/Kimmi/Mad Dog/Tina consider voting out Keith instead for not being very active or social and not helping out in challenges. During the TC, Keith randomly shows up and calls out Papa Bear for trying to get him to switch tribes and throw the challenge so Madhesi would be safe. In the end, Papa Bear's hardcore lying and gameplay comes back to bite him in the ass and he is unanimously voted out.
Episode 5: "One Of Your Friends Is A Liar"
It is revealed that there will be a tribe swap! Rai is no more and Kirati/Madhesi will be the two tribes from here on out. There is a challenge to determine who will be the new ambassadors of NuKirati & NuMadhesi. Chris & Hayden win ambassador for NuMadhesi & NuKirati, respectively. In addition, they are also given Immunity for the first tribal council they attend. They also start the picking for the new tribes.
At the end, it is revealed that Chris, Angie, Carter, Artis, Kimmi, Tina, Mad Dog, Stacey are the members of NuMadhesi & Hayden, Rich, Ramona Jeff, Debb, Keith, Lisa, Denise are the members of NuKirati. Since Stacey was swapped last round and never went to TC, her immunity is still intact, so she is safe for the first TC that NuMadhesi attends.
At NuKirati, Jeff ends up becoming frustrated that he can't figure out the Idol password despite receiving every single clue that has been sent out. After going over it with Richard, Richard ends up giving Jeff a wikipedia page which has the password on it (he sent it to Jeff before actually trying it himself alol) and Jeff ends up getting the Idol. Lulz all around.
NuKirati ends up winning the IC, sending NuMadhesi to Tribal Council. At NuMadhesi, Stacey has a plan of her own and joins up with the 3 Madhesi women to vote out Carter. In order to solidify the numbers so there isn't a 4-4 tie, Stacey also tries to convince original Kirati member Artis to flip, however Artis sells her out to the original Kirati 4.
At TC, Tina decides to put out a stray vote for Artis instead of forcing a tie, and it is revealed that the 4 Kirati members vote for Mad Dog, and she is voted out 4-3-1.
Episode 6: "I'm Pulling All The Strings"
No one is traded at the Ambassador Ceremony. At the IC, NuMadhesi comes out on top and NuKirati is sent to Tribal Council. At NuKirati, Lisa decides to use her bonds she made with Jeff & Rich from the other tribes as Ambassador to form an alliance between them 3. Lisa has Denise and Rich has Ramona/Hayden which gives them the 6 person majority. However, Jeff begins to realize what a mega threat Lisa is and doesn't like the fact that she wants to target 2 of the original Madhesi members (Debb/Keith) first. Add that to the fact that it's quite obvious that original Kirati has control of NuMadhesi, Jeff begins to target Lisa for elimination. He pulls in original tribe members Keith/Debb and convinces Rich that Lisa is a huge threat in the game, who in turn gets Hayden/Ramona on board with the plan. At TC, the plan all comes together as Lisa is blindsided out of the game on a 6-2 vote, leaving Denise on the outs.
Episode 7: "Epic Fail"
No one is traded at the Ambassador Ceremony. At the IC, it is revealed that both tribes are going to TC and they will be playing for individual immunity. Jeff & Chris win Immunity for NuKirati & NuMadhesi respectively. Kimmi also find the Idol at NuMadhesi.
At NuKirati, it appears they have an easy boot in Denise who is on the outs, however the hosts decide to remove Keith from the game after being borderline inactive for the past few days, and Denise is spared.
At NuMadhesi, after Lisa was blindsided last round, Artis decides to come up with a plan to vote out one of his own in Kirati member Angie, who he has been annoyed with from Day 1, in order to make Kirati seem less threatening at the merge. However Chris & Carter do not agree with this plan and tell Angie about it. Angie/Carter decide they should vote out Artis, while Tina/Kimmi decide they should vote out Stacey to get her annoying ass out of the game. Stacey decides to vote out Artis believing it could potentially save herself. However, because Chris doesn't want to lose Artis as a number, he votes for Stacey to tie it 3-3-1, because the rules state that at a tie the Ambassador breaks the tie, and Chris will vote out Stacey. He tells Angie/Carter about this and says they need to keep Artis as a number, however Angie/Carter decide to keep their votes on Artis just to spook him into not doing something like that again. However, unbeknownst to them, the Ambassador from the OTHER tribe is the one who breaks the tribe. So Hayden, being the Ambassador for NuKirati, comes over and ultimately decides to vote out Artis over Stacey. Pwnt.
Episode 8: "It Better Not Be Me"
Merge time! There are 4 original Kirati (Chris/Angie/Carter/Denise), 4 original Madhesi (Jeff/Kimmi/Debb/Tina), and 4 original Rai (Stacey/Rich/Ramona/Hayden). Angie, Debb & Denise all end up winning Immunity. Denise joins back up with the other 3 original Kirati members, and they continue to target Stacey for being annoying. The Original Rai trio of Rich/Ramona/Hayden manages to pull Stacey back in after she was on the outs at NuMadhesi. The 4 Rai's want Original Madhesi members (particularly Jeff & Debb, who the Rai trio formed a bond with at NuKirati) to stick with them and vote out all the original Kirati members. Jeff & Kimmi decide that Kimmi should continue working with the other original Kirati members that she joined up with at NuMadhesi so they can work opposing sides and share information with each other. Kimmi also tells Jeff she found the Madhesi Idol, but Jeff does NOT tell her that he has the Kirati Idol. However, Ramona & Rich decide they want to target Tina instead of a Kirati member after they believe she is a wildcard who is working both sides. This does not sit well with Jeff & Debb, who want to keep Tina because she is an original Madhesi and they don't want to be down against numbers against original Rai 4-3. So Jeff manages to convince Debb & Tina to flip sides to Kirati and join back up with Kimmi and Stacey is voted out 8-4 and becomes the 1st member of the Jury.
Episode 9: "They Will Never Get My Vote"
After the vote, Ramona becomes extremely angry that Madhesi flipped sides, and gets in a PM argument with Jeff after Jeff tries to apologize for lying to her and saying that he still wants to work with her. Ramona sees through his charade and realizes he's just trying to cover all his bases. Carter wins Immunity. At Tribal Council, Jeff gets everyone (including Rich/Hayden) to vote against Ramona and she is unanimously voted out and becomes the 2nd member of the Jury.
Episode 10: "I'm Going To Set Off Fireworks"
With only 2 Rai left, the 4 Madhesi members decide it's time to flip back to Rai and start taking out the 4 Kirati members so they can all have an easy ride to the F4. Carter once again wins Immunity. After the challenge, Madhesi decides to tell Kirati they are voting out Hayden over Richard, when in actuality they're going to vote out Angie with the 2 Rai, as they deem Angie to be the biggest social threat among Kirati. However, unknown to Madhesi, Kirati member Denise manages to convince Richard to instead flip sides and turn on his fellow Rai member Hayden. At this point, Kirati has no idea Madhesi is trying to turn on them this round, however Denise wants Richard on Kirati's side so they will have the numbers to turn on Madhesi in the future. So going in to Tribal Council, it appears it's going to be a 5-5 tie, however Tina decides to flip on Madhesi to stay loyal to the bonds she made with the Kirati members at NuMadhesi and in the merge, and the Madhesi tribe is exposed as being two faced liars as Hayden is voted out in a 5-4-1 vote because Chris voted out Richard instead of Hayden (he promised Hayden he wouldn't vote him out). Hayden becomes the 3rd member of the Jury.
Episode 11: "The Game Doesn't Revolve Around You, And It Soon Won't Involve You At All"
After Tribal, Chris/Tina immediately start talking about flipping to Madhesi members Jeff/Debb/Kimmi after they realize that Richard is now a number for Denise/Angie/Carter and they're on the bottom of the alliance. Tina also told Chris about how Madhesi was turning on Kirati and voting for Angie literally minutes before the last tribal, so Chris knew what was going down. Chris wins Immunity. After the challenge, Tina decides to come clean and tell Denise/Angie/Carter/Richard that she told Chris about how Madhesi was planning to vote out Angie before tribal. Denise becomes upset that Tina never told her about Madhesi's plans, and tries to get Kirati + Richard to turn on Tina. This makes Chris uncomfortable because he believes Denise is just upset that Tina had information and didn't give it to her, and Chris views it as cocky behavior on Denise's part believing that she is the HBIC of the alliance. So Chris/Tina tell the 3 Madhesi members they are going to flip on Kirati + Richard, and it all comes together as Denise is blindsided in a 5-4 vote and becomes the 4th member of the Jury, leaving Carter/Angie/Richard on the outs.
Episode 12: "Options, Baby!"
After the vote, Jeff has a late night conversation with Angie and the two form somewhat of a bond. To ensure her & Chris they don't get voted out in 5th & 4th place, Tina uses her bond she made with Debb early on in the game at Madhesi to form a F3 between them & Chris, leaving Jeff/Kimmi on the outs of the new alliance. However, unbeknownst to them, Debb also has a F3 with Jeff/Kimmi. Jeff wins Immunity. Angie finds the merge Idol literally minutes before tribal! And After it seems it's going to be an easy Angie vote, Jeff/Tina come up with a last minute plan to vote out Richard with Angie/Carter because they view Rich as shady and want Angie/Carter to stick around as human shields so no one views Jeff/Tina as the biggest threats since Angie/Carter are social underdogs. At tribal council, it all comes together as Jeff/Tina vote Richard out with Angie/Carter in a 4-3-1 vote and he becomes the 5th member of the Jury. Angie ultimately decides to risk it and does not play her newly found idol.
Episode 13: "I Have Less Than 1% Chance Of Making The F3"
Despite the fact that they were on top of the votes the last round, Angie/Carter realize that they're still on the bottom as they know Jeff/Tina only did that to keep them around as shields. Jeff/Tina decide to tell Chris/Debb/Kimmi that they made the plan against Richard last minute in order to split the votes in case one has an idol. They reaffirm their alliance and target Angie first. However Tina begins to realize how people have underestimated Chris's UTR flip-flop game and that he has a strong shot to win in a FTC situation. So, in order to further keep Angie/Carter around as shields, she begins to target Chris with Debb, however Debb eventually tells Chris what Tina is trying to do. It doesn't matter anyway as Chris ends up winning immunity. The 5 person majority decides to target Angie for elimination. Angie knows she is getting their votes and has the idol, however, she makes the ultimate sacrifice. Since the last time an Idol can be played is at the F6, Angie decides to give her idol to Carter for him to play for himself at the F6 in the next round and guarantee him F5. Her reasoning is she believes Carter has a better chance to get to the end since he's good at challenges and can win the last two IC's and make the Final 3. So at Tribal Council, Angie is voted out in a 5-2 vote and becomes the 6th member of the Jury.
Episode 14: "These Motherfuckers Are About To Pay"
After Tribal, because Carter is 100% safe since he now has Angie's idol, he begins to play more unsafe and recklessly as he tries to get people to turn on Kimmi, who he, as well as the rest of the people who are on the Jury, deems to be the biggest threat in the game and the head honcho of the majority alliance due to her social play. Tina finds out that Debb told Chris about her plans to blindside him and becomes angry at her. Carter wins Immunity. Now that Carter has immunity, the target shifts to Chris, the outsider of the majority alliance since he is not an original Madhesi member. Chris tries to form something with Carter to stay, and Carter says he wants to vote out Debb since she is perceived as a goat and wants to increase his longevity in the game, which does not sit well with Chris, as he wants to take out one of the big guns. At Tribal Council, Chris tries to bluff having an Idol in order to stay around, however there is no need as Carter plays the idol on Chris, and Jeff & Kimmi play their respective idols on themselves since it's the last time they can be used. Once the votes are read, it is revealed that Chris voted Debb with Carter, as did Tina who switched her vote last minute, and Debb is voted out in a 3-0 vote since the 3 votes against Chris are negated, and Debb becomes the 7th member of the Jury.
Episode 15: "Plan Abandoned!"
Chris decides to stick it out with Carter and tries to convince Tina to flip with him as well to vote out Kimmi, who they perceive as the biggest threat. Jeff begins to get frustrated that the people who are getting voted out and joining the jury are crediting Kimmi as the biggest threat when he was the one who made most of the strategic decisions, however he starts to use it as an advantage by convincing the others that he is a goat and they should take him to the F3. Carter wins his 4th Immunity of the game. After Carter's win, him & Chris put their plan into full motion as they continue to tell Tina that they need to vote out Kimmi, and Tina suddenly finds herself in the swing vote position between Chris/Carter and Jeff/Kimmi. However, unbeknownst to them all, Kimmi wants to target fellow alliance member Jeff instead, believing that he and her played a similar game and doesn't want him in the F3. She tries to get Chris/Carter on board, but Chris sells her out to Jeff, who then tells Kimmi about it as he believes Chris is only saying that to try and get him to flip. When Kimmi finds out, she finds her plans are ruined and decides to stick with the Chris vote. At Tribal Council, Tina decides to make things predictable and sticks with her original Madhesi members and Chris is voted out 3-2, and becomes the 8th member of the Jury.
Episode 16: "You've Got My Vote On Sunday"
After Tribal, Jeff/Kimmi/Tina solidify their F3 as they know Carter will most likely win if he gets to the ends due to being the underdog. At the Immunity Challenge, Carter had to leave temporarily for a RL emergency and therefore couldn't complete the challenge and Jeff won Immunity. At Tribal Council, the 3 Madhesi members voted out Carter, and he proceeded to congratulate Kimmi for her win on his way out. Carter is the 9th and final member of the Jury.
Episode 17: "This Shit Just Isn't Fun Anymore"
After Tribal, Jeff had a full blown meltdown in his confessional, frustrated that it seems everyone on the jury wants to vote Kimmi for the win as they perceive her as the top dog of the game.
At the Final Tribal Council, Jeff/Kimmi/Tina all face the jury. There were a lot of great speeches by the jurors, as well as great opening speeches by the F3, and while she was thought to be a goat, Tina manages to convince Chris, Stacey & Hayden that she shaped up the game with all her flipping and played a ruthless game and caused a lot of chaos, and she gets their 3 votes, despite pissing off literally every member of the Jury.
However, it is Jeff who manages to convince the rest of the jury (except Ramona) that he played a better game than Kimmi cause he was the better strategic player and had more influence on the decisions in the game since he orchestrated some crucial votes, as well as being a strong social player by covering all his bases and having connections on the other side, and winning 2 immunities. Jeff wins the game in a 5-3-1 vote after Kimmi has a lackluster FTC performance.
