morning time...see a cloud, day 27, Tai and Abury at the water....Aubry says crazy game...she confides to him, I sit and cry that I am not built to play this game

Tai: the lying and cheating it's so hard for me to do that...

Aubry tells him when to trust the brain and stop thinking

Tai: likes Aubry, she has a certain energy that I like...she tells him that some girls want to flush the idols, but you can trust me, I have your back, I wanted Tai to know that Julia is gunning for him, so maybe we can make it work, and I can tell you what is going on...

Tai: excited that Aubry is on my side I think she is a good contribution to the lions, I think scot and jason are gonna like it

Tai goes to the boys and says that some girl want your idol gone, she says that she is a free agent, she's open if she wants to join forces, she is open to any suggestion

Scot tells him how about the next TC, we take Aubry out

Tai cons: they are so forceful, I never participate in the decision

Scot continues to tell them that the down side is we still have cydney
she won't suspect it, we blindside her, it wasn't emotional decision, as long as we stay faithful, we have a path to the f3...don't see why we wouldn't ...

cut to the IC....

stretch your arms out and use fingertips to touch two wooden disks, attached to pots, pots drop, you are out. Winner 1 in 7 chance to win...loser to jury

they are all in position....challenge is on...designed to make your fingers go numb quickly...Joe is out first...vulnerable at TC, down to 7...Jason is sweating profusely....dripping from his nose....now definitely feeling it in your shoulders, fingers numb....Aubry is moving, Julia slips but a nice recovery...Scot is dropped...out, down to 6, then julia is out...everybody is looking at everybody else now....Tai is slipping.....Tai is out...down to 4, michele is out...down to 3, 1 brain, 2 brawn, 1 necklace.

hot muggy day...Jason continues to fight, can feel y our muscles start to give out, Cydney is out...down to Aubry and Jason....Jason spits, so Aubry spits....I am not backing down says Jason....Aubry says right back, neither am i....this guy has been through everything, ...1 hour 15 minutes....digging for a long time, Aubry with a little slip.....with a nice recovery, but her hands are in a difficult spot, she gets them back, this is it, 27 days.....now it's Jason that is moving, keep fighting, you gotta dig...more slipping....Jason is shaking....Aubry drops, Jason: YESSSSS safe tonight, they hug...a huge challenge...

see aubry, see Scot, not be Jason....

Jason: thankfully we beat aubry so scot tai and I us three are safe and from here on out we are unstoppable...
