Survivor Philippines (season 1) - The Game - Cycle 6: Days 16-18

Cycle 6: Days 16-18

  • Reward Challenge: Four tribe members would each collect as much mud from a mud pit as one can and let a fifth member extract the mud to a collection bucket, which in turn have its contents transferred to a clean bucket. The bucket will be deemed completely full if it becomes heavy enough to pull a weight to the top. The first tribe to fill five clean buckets with mud wins the Reward.
    • Reward: An on-the-spot bathing and toothbrushing session, using toiletries from Unilever.
  • Immunity Challenge: The members of each tribe, each smothered with oil, would stand across a balance beam. The member nearest to the edge must cross the beam, straddling their tribemates in the process, to the center platform. Leaning forward and crouching way too low is not allowed. First tribe to have all five members on the center platform wins immunity.

Day 16: Jace took John's departure hard as evidenced by his transformation from virtual helper to just idler. In Naak, Cris further proved his worth by cooking the rice before everyone else woke up. Zita noted the scarcity of edible sealife in their new camp compared to their old one. In the Reward Challenge, Naak once again dominated Jarakay, 5-3. Like the end of the previous reward challenge, Jarakay watched as Naak had their bath. In Jarakay, Jace, a mixed martial arts fighter, showed some moves to Marlon. Veronica, a taekwondo coach, briefly joined the two by showing her roundhouse kicks to them. At Naak, Rob, Cris, and Kaye frolicked by imitating characters from the Starzan franchise (Joey de Leon's parody of the Tarzan franchise). At Jarakay, while rain was falling down, Marlon, Jace, and Veronica, donned in their ponchos, traded ghost stories to amuse themselves.

Day 17: Marlon noticed that Jace had become more lazier since the day before. Both tribes were given sheets of paper and pencils to write letter for their love ones at home. At Naak, Cris, Rob, and Kaye continue their frolicking by playing in the rain. Meanwhile, the members of Jarakay noted their wound and bruises that they had attained within the last few days. Charisse also noticed that no other message arrived for the entire day, keeping them in the dark about future events. Back at Naak, Kaye had also saw changes in her looks.

Day 18: Charisse noticed that Jace's efforts to stay on did not mask his longing for home. She had also started to catch the same kind of seafood Marlon was catching. At Naak, longing for food was also evident and Zita finding a small edible shellfish did not help. At the Immunity Challenge, Naak easily won their fourth challenge in a row while Veronica was still straddling her four tribemates. Back at the Jarakay camp, Marlon once again played double agent when he handled different opinions to Veronica and Charisse on who to vote out; he was also considerate about the upcoming merge. At Naak, Kaye reported that her tribe must show up at Tribal Council as well. But when she also mentioned that it was just a joke, the men lifted her off the ground to force out the truth. At Tribal Council, talk was about the weakening of the tribe, the loved ones they had missed, etc. In an event similar to one occurring six days before, Naak also showed so they would hear what Jarakay would have to say about them. Voting occurred and Nikki was voted out 4-1.

Famous quotes containing the words cycle and/or days:

    Only mediocrities progress. An artist revolves in a cycle of masterpieces, the first of which is no less perfect than the last.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    There are days when the great are near us, when there is no frown on their brow, no condescension even; when they take us by the hand, and we share their thought.
