I just got this in my email from a friend. He got it off another spoiler board. It may be a hoax, but it done so well I had to post it. I only edited out the email jargon, not the text itself. This almost seems reliable, almost.DoC
<This episode #9 spoiler was fowarded anonymously to the
Secret Squirrel (the chap from last year who exposed episodes
#4, #7 and who correctly posted the spoiler for the "Rudy let's
go of the pole in last challenge" loss). It's currently making
the rounds on the web. Enjoy!

EPISODE #9: PLOT LAYOUT FOR AIRDATE MARCH 22ND
DAY 25 -
Barramundi tribe awakes in rain. Rodger, Elisabeth and Tina are
cooking breakfast at the camp fire. Tina and Rodger share some
stories about their home life. Elisabeth goes to wake the others
for breakfast.
Everyone's up now and talking about the heavy rain and if the flag
tent is strong enough to last the remainder of the game. Rodger
decides along with Nick and Colby to shore up the tent with thick
wood sticks positioned at the base and head off into the wooded area
to find some.
Jerri and Amber talk amongst themselves whether Colby is getting too
close with Rodger. Tina and Elisabeth bathe in the creek and talk
about Jerri. Keith is taking inventory of the balance of food, which
is half a bucket of rice and minor canned goods.
Amber walk over to Keith and joke with him about still wearing the immunity
necklace which he hasn't taken off since tribal council the night before.
He slightly grins and says "it's just for good luck against the elements."
DAY 26 -
Tina and Elisabeth take a walk to the tree mail and look into the pouch.
A wooden plank with writing is found. Tina takes and reads it with Elisabeth
before they bring it back to the others. A reward challenge that reads:
"A challenge of the highest order - what goes up must come down.
Eight will rise, but seven must fall. The others will stay while the
winner takes all."
They all contemplate what the challenge will be. Rodger and Colby reset
the foundation of the tent while Nick watches from the side. Jerri, Tina,
Amber and Elisabeth are standing around, while Keith changes his shirt,
the camera quickly pans to his necklace on the ground.
Cut scene to the reward challenge: The Barramundi tribe is gathered with
the host at the next reward challenge which is situated 15 feet above
ground with numerous poles, planks and netting below. Jeff Probst explains
the concept of the challenge, which is to walk across planks and retrieve
icons representing each member of the tribe. However, the planks are
overlapping which means that 2 or more people trying to cross over at
the same to get to the opposite end will result in someone falling off.
The time limit is for this challenge is 5 minutes. The most icons retrieved
by one tribe member wins the challenge. The prize is an overnight stay at a
luxury hotel located in Dongara.
The challenge begins. The tribe members scurry on the planks trying to
gather up icons representing themselves. Nick falls first. Tina, Keith,
Rodger fall in order. Amber, Elisabeth and Jerri are still on the planks
when Colby wins the reward by gathering the most icons in the shortest time.
A close up of Colby grinning with his arms up in victory.
Later on, a helicopter comes down in a clearing just north of the creek area.
He's been informed that he's not allowed to bring anyone with him. Colby boards
the helicopter while the others wave to him as he takes off.
Cut scene to the hotel: Colby is seated in the main dining room with Jeff
and is treated to a lobster dinner complete with assorted cheeses, bread and
beer. Jeff talks to him about his position in the new tribe and how he
feels about the others, and in particular, Jerri. His strategy for staying
in the game are revealed as they banter about during the feast.
Cut scene to the Barramundi tribe at night: The tribe is eating rice and
imagining what Colby is having for dinner. Jerri mentions that if she finds
out he gets a massage she's going to scream. Tina gets up from the group
and heads for bed.
Cut scene back to the hotel: Colby is escorted to his room - big comfortable
bed, clean clothes and a hot shower.
Cut scene back to the tribe: Everyone is lying down in the dark. The camera
pans to different faces staring up at the night sky. Everyone is quiet.
DAY 27
Early morning. Colby flies back into camp as the others run over to the
landing area. He walks out and over to his tribe with a smirk on his face.
Questions as to what he had for dinner are asked by keith and Elisabeth.
Rodger puts an arm around him to welcome him back and asks if he enjoyed it.
Jerri asks if he had a massage. Colby's not too talkative about what went on,
but does mention that it was great to take a hot shower.
Cut scene to later in the day: Jerri, Colby and Amber walk to the tree
mail and find a parchment note tied to a horseshoe. Jerri unscrolls the
note and glances at the immunity challenge with Colby, Amber. They know
it must involve horses.
They walk back to camp and read the note to the others while Rodger
holds onto the horseshoe and analyzes it. The challenge reads:
"Marco Polo never had it this tough - Voices are heard as you
take to the course, eliminate the others as you travel by horse.
The Necklace is yours if you listen with care, and tribal council
comes easy and without a scare.
Rodger mentions in passing that he looked at the brand on the horseshoe to
see if it came from his hometown as a possible clue, but it said " farm"
The camera pans back and forth to witness the tribe packing their belongings
for tonight.
Cut scene to unknown area for the challenge: The tribe gathers around the
host as he describes this unusual immunity challenge, which is a game of
Marco Polo on horseback... blindfolded. The game is simple - try to find
and tag each other out by shouting your position, then moving away on your
horse to avoid being tagged.
They are walked over by the host to the playing field which is 50-foot
square area cordoned off by ropes as a boundary. They each have a blindfold
placed on them and are mounted on top of their individual horse. In order
to tag the others, they are given long thin poles which is reminiscent of
jousting. There is no time limit.
The challenge begins. Players scream, yell then trot off in various directions.
Tina is tagged by Nick, takes her blindfold off and exits the playing field
with her horse. Colby takes a smack to the hand by Amber and is removed.
A few minutes into the challenge Rodger is rammed in the side with a pole
by Nick and falls off the horse and to the ground.
The challenge is stopped as Rodger is checked to see if he's okay by Jeff.
Amber, Elisabeth and Keith pull off their blindfolds to see what just
happened. Rodger has hurt his shoulder and will be taken to the medic on
hand at the crew encampment. Elisabeth starts to cry and says "God.. not
again." The host determines that the challenge will continue without
Rodger, who's been officially tagged out. As the game progresses, it's
Nick who wins immunity. Jeff puts the necklace on Nick and tells him
he did a good job, and also mentions that this is his first win in a
challenge.
Cut scene to tent: Everyone is sitting around waiting to hear word on
Rodgers condition. A jeep rides up to the beach area and lets Rodger
off. Elisabeth starts to cry. Rodger tells the others that he wasn't
seriously hurt, but did bruise his left shoulder blade and collarbone.
He assures the group that he's fine and just suffering a little pain.
He asks who won immunity. Nick shows him the necklace around his neck.
Rodger shakes his hand. They decide to eat dinner before TC tonight.
Cut scene to brige walk at TC: a parade of lit torches light the way
to tribal council. Everyone places their torches in their prospective
slot and sit down. Jeff has a brief roundtable discussion about the
past events from 3 days. Colby is asked about how enjoyable his hotel
reward was. The tribe members are asked by Jeff if they thought Rodger
was seriously hurt, focusing on Elisabeths words of "not again".
Nick is congratulated again by jeff on a great game. The tribal council
begins.
One by one they go up to the voting area in usual order, with Tina
going first. After completion, Jeff goes to tabulate the votes.
It's between Jerri and Rodger. Rodger loses and is voted off. He
shakes hands with some of the tribe and gives Elisabeth a hug and says
"you'll be in prayers. See you in three days." He shakes Jeff's hand and
walks across the bridge to the interview area.
We find out through voting interviews that all in Ogakor voted for Rodger
not because he was a threat, but because they feared for his injury. >
