Episode Recap
Savu swept the double. Jeff announced the reward up front — four egg-laying hens — and Savu won both reward and immunity in a physical old-school challenge, sending Toka to its second Tribal Council.
Everything else was chaos. Rob Antonson voluntarily left the game mid-episode after a foot/leg scare the medical team found nothing alarming in — and before leaving, he handed his hidden immunity idol to Carter Krull. Carter and Devin Way then visited the other tribe's camp with instructions for an advantage and a mutiny option: Devin stayed loyal but worked a clue with Sharonda to secure a secret extra vote (+5 journey success), while Carter bungled the Toka-camp advantage, missed the boat back, and effectively mutinied to Toka. Brady Booker retrieved the Toka advantage first, then handed it to Maggie Nestor — she holds a secret extra vote, and the two promised to use it together.
At Tribal, the Toka 5 (Devin, Jelly, Brady, Mike, Patt) fractured: Lewis Kelly and Carter flipped to Kilby's misfits (Maggie, Jenna, Thien An), and Patt Cannaday was blindsided out, 6-5. Seventeen castaways remain — 10 on Toka, 7 on Savu.

Good Human

Week 3 nominations — altruistic moments from Episode 3 — are open now. Captains: send nominations to the President by Tuesday, October 13, at 12:00pm ET; the winner (+2) is revealed that Tuesday before Episode 4.
