Survivor: Last Resort: Cape Verde - Episode 11
After Chase’s elimination, the feeling amongst camp is bittersweet. They feel bad that he went out like wounded horse but they knew the threat that he was. He could have won out the competitions and gained sympathy amongst the masculine-heavy jury. This being the first season of the Last Resort version of the show, no one is sure how they jury will base their votes.
While both sides knew they’d have to turn on each other once Chase and Laura were gone, the debate rages about whether to target Rajon first or use him as a pawn in their scheme. Rajon is still on his own, worn down by the 33 days in the wilderness and non-stop scheming. He is close to taking Chase’s approach of tuning out the game but he decides to keep his ears open if anyone wants to work with him.
The Final Five immunity arrives. Each castaway will work to solve three puzzles. Using a set of coordinates, each castaway will cross two ropes. Where the ropes intersect, a bag of puzzle pieces is buried in the sand. They must dig up the pieces, then race back to their respective answer boards to complete their puzzle. The puzzle will reveal the next set of coordinates. The first person to solve all three puzzles, with the third one reading "Safe From Vote," wins Immunity.
Jim and Fiona jump out to an early lead in the competition, with Megan not too far behind. Jose and Rajon struggle with their first puzzle, which sets them back. Upon completing the first puzzle, Jim struggles with finding his buried pieces and this puts sets him back with Jose and Rajon, who start gaining ground. However, Rajon makes quick work of the second puzzle and starts ascending up the leaderboard. By the time they get to the third puzzle, it is a race between him and Fiona. He actually finds his pieces first but she is not long after. Ultimately, Fiona is able to complete her puzzle first and wins her first individual immunity.
In confessional, Rajon admits that his performance in that challenge rejuvenated him in a way. He was honestly feeling in the dumps but now he is ready to go again, especially considering how close they are to the finals.
Things are quiet at first, as everyone seems to like each other pretty well. There is also a sense of nerves, knowing that any wrong move could be your downfall at this point. The first trio to meet are Rajon, Jim, and Jose.
After talking with Rajon, Jim and Jose meet together in private. They debate the benefits of taking out Rajon vs. Megan. Rajon almost assuredly has two jury votes in his pocket with his late allies, Chase and Laura. However, Jose points out that he doesn’t have much of a resume to gain more votes. Meanwhile, no one dislikes Megan - even the people she voted out. She is a special-ed teacher for Christ’s sake. While she may not have made any huge moves, she stayed in a loyal duo throughout and that type of loyalty could appeal to some. In confessional, Jim says that that conversation has him a bit nervous about whether or not he should target Jose right now as he’s clearly got his mind on jury votes and is probably already writing his final speech.
Jose sits down with Fiona and Megan and tells them that he has decided he wants to go to the final three with them. However, he thinks they should get rid of Jim the next vote - the final vote before the Final Tribal Council. Fiona and Megan are unsure about this at first, although they start to like it. It means that they will be viewed as “loyal” before doing what they must do when there is no one left to lose.
As they talk, Jim is meeting with Rajon. He tells him that they haven’t really played together much this game but he wants to go to the Finals with him. He wants to take out Megan and Fiona over the next two votes, which Rajon is down for obviously. He promises Jim that he will work with him until the end. In confessional, Jim admits that he is considering taking a big gamble. While taking out Jose is juicy endeavor and a huge move, he doesn’t think he can accomplish it this vote without a Hidden Immunity Idol (which he can’t find). Thus, Jim is prepared to take Jose with him to the Final 3 if it means finally defeating him fair and square. They have been quiet rivals all game and Jim is unsure if blindsiding him at the final 4 would feel as satisfying as gaining more jury votes than him.
After Jose leaves, Fiona and Megan debate Jim vs. Jose, even if it is to occur next week. They need to come out of that looking as good as possible, claiming it as their move. They tend to like Jose more as he voted with them at the first swapped Tribal Council. He was essentially alone and chose to side with them on the basis of his gut only. Fiona points out that there will also be a heavily-Brava majority which will favor them in a Final 3 with him. Megan is clearly nervous about all of this but Fiona calms her nerves and promises that one of them will win this.
At Tribal Council, they talk about Fiona’s surprising immunity win and Rajon’s close-but-no-cigar comeback attempt. This naturally leads to a discussion of the importance of immunity performance vs. strategizing. They discuss that there are some on the jury who probably prefer one over the other. But in the end, it is like having a college degree and an internship on your resume. They both provide a sense of value, helping elevate your overall resume. But is in the eye of the beholder on which will be more important in the end. Jeff wraps up Tribal Council and says that it is time to vote.
After everyone has voted, he asks if anyone has a Hidden Immunity Idol, now would be the final time to play it. No one does. He reads the votes…
First vote...Rajon
….Rajon
….Megan
…...Megan
Two votes Rajon, two votes Megan, one vote left…
…...The twelfth person voted off of Survivor: Last Resort and the sixth member of our jury...Megan. The tribe has spoken. Megan, Fiona, and the jury are all pretty surprised by this, with Fiona looking the most mad. Jose wants to deviously smile but holds himself back from doing so.
In her post-vote confessional, Megan says they shouldn’t have trusted Jose. She’s not sure what scenario would have gotten her out of this vote though - side Jim and Rajon? Push harder to get Jose to vote out Jim? Oh well, all the speculation is too late now.
In a finale preview, four castaways walk with their torches in the sunset. Jim Marshall. Fiona Robinson. Rajon Jackson. Jose Mendes. One of these four will be the first winner of Survivor: Last Resort. Tune in next week to find out who will gain the crown of Sole Survivor and one million dollars.
