*WARNING – SPOILERS FOLLOW*

Three times our heroine Christine has faced opponents on Redemption Island, three times winning the duels. Can she do it a fourth time and give Elyse, who was voted out in Episode 4, the boot?

We have to wait until after a nightvision trip to Savaii where Ozzy declares himself a free agent, while Brandon is obsessing over the final clue to the immunity idol that he found, not knowing Coach already has it in his possession.

Finally over at Redemption Island Christine says her stay (isolation?) is getting to her, saying she doesn’t want to go back. The challenge today is Survivor shuffleboard and with Rick giving some encouragement, Christine flips him the bird. She’s the one who ends up winning after Elyse sabotages herself by knocking off one of her own pucks and stays. Elyse waves goodbye and Rick believes should Christine come back she will have “fire in her eyes” and “ready to kill us.”

This week’s challenge is building a wheelbarrow and using it to move coconuts that they then have to fire at targets using a slingshot. Savaii can’t handle much as Ozzy, Dawn and Cochran drag the tribe down to a poor start running into a post while Keith, Whitney and Jim pull it out in the end for the victory and gets a picnic to boot.

Mikayla has been the one being singled out early in the episode and will be the next one to face Christine.
