Its divorce season, didnt you hear?
Theres trouble in paradise back at Vesi after Jesse joined Cody and Nneka to vote out Justine.
Dwight and Noelle are reeling from the vote and decide to link up moving forward.
While tensions are rising on Vesi and Baka, Coco is just chilling.
Six days in and theres almost no drama to be found here.
But then Karla goes exploring.
While everyone else is lounging or fishing, Karla stumbles upon the Coco Beware Advantage.
Not one person has been able to fight the temptation here.
Knowing the risk of losing her vote, Karla replaces the Beware Advantage in the tree and walks away.
But it doesnt take long for her to change her mind.
After all, if she does lose her vote, Cocos been doing pretty well in challenges anyway.
Are strong social butterflies like Karla and Cody the ideal candidates?
Both were able to convince everyone to give up their precious beads in less than an afternoon.
She knows them all well enough to know what will actually be tempting or worth swapping.
Who needs them out here?
But Lindsay and Cassidy appreciate the gesture and swap jewelry for beads.
Does that work for you, Karla?
This episode really emphasizes that on a six-person tribe, theres nowhere to hide.
Relationships, like the duos on Vesi, are nearly impossible to obscure.
Either your relationships are strong enough to earn your right to vote or theyre not.
When your tribe loses a challenge, all anyone can focus on is the loss.
To just survive one more challenge.
To see one more day.
There is a legacy of weak challenge competitors thriving in other aspects of the game and making it far.
The previous format of the game gave far more wiggle room in terms of challenge losses and personal responsibility.
The forced closeness between everyone on such a small tribe makes any flaws seem far more apparent.
At the challenge, Geo sits out for Coco.
Two tribes will win a tool kit and fruit, although the first-place bounty is twice as large.
She is quite literally a Paralympian, so no one should be surprised when she has no problems here.
This time she has Jesse by her side, but together they blow a massive lead.
Baka claims victory once again, with Coco earning the second-place prize.
Baka chooses Noelle from Vesi and James from Coco.
Owen volunteers to join them.
After struggling through the hike, Noelle is sure to let the boys know shes worried.
She makes large promises of safety if they should all make it to the merge.
Although shes much safer with an advantage under her belt, Noelle is even safer than she realizes.
Nneka is overconfident in her alliance with Cody and Jesse and heartbroken at the idea of voting Noelle out.
Her tribemates let her go on being sad, knowing it will be Nnekas name written down tonight.
After two losses in a row, Vesi is determined to get their stuff together.
Walking around talking to your fellow villagers, collecting items from them to craft an important item?
Sounds like someone on theSurvivorcrew has been playingAnimal Crossing.
Noelle: Im gonna attempt to do whatever it takes to start getting my feet in the game.Nice.
