Here we go with the second episode of the night, then. Alec doesn't like that he was called out at tribal council, and senses his game is coming to an end. He asks Jon if he's gonna vote him out and Jon decides to be honest and say he trusts his alliance. But we all know trust on Survivor is rarely merited.

| Stick to the plank |
Time for a reward challenge now and this reward looks very much like immunity. They can win spaghetti in bed (is that a thing?) by keeping a ball pinned to a bar at the top of their station. Alec is out pretty much as soon as he starts. That's fine, save your strength for immunity. Missy, Keith and Baylor all drop too, and predict Jon is in trouble. They're right...he'd been hanging on by a thread for quite a while. Natalie and Jaclyn are the last two and Natalie wins. She gives Jon and Jaclyn the reward, hoping they won't have sex in the bed. Missy doesn't like missing out on the prize, but Natalie isn't making the same mistake she did: keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.

Jon and Jaclyn enjoy the reward, although it's a little bit awkward that everyone can see them enjoying it. Jon in particular likes the wine since he's a wine enthusiast, but Natalie wishes he'd just shut up. Natalie starts plotting with Baylor about how they need to get Jon out, as he's too dangerous to go to the end with. Baylor is on board because Jon is reminding her of one of her mom's exes. Seems everybody is souring on the golden couple now, with Keith pissed that they're sleeping for 90% of the day. When they finally do awaken, Jon detects a weird vibe in camp and wonders if he's now in trouble.

| Divine intervention at the immunity challenge |
Jeff gives a weird pep talk before the immunity challenge, as he sees Missy getting emotional. The challenge is to take blocks and stack them on a tipsy table. You know, the one Tyson won. Keith mystifies everyone with another solid performance and takes the lead. Then he ends up hitting a setback when he drops his stack, allowing Jon and Jaclyn time to catch him. Jaclyn drops too, and now it's all on Jon. Jon starts going very slowly for his last block, and it's enough to beat a pursuit from Keith. Jon is safe, and Natalie's blindside is a bust.
Alec starts showing a sensitive side to Baylor now that he feels he's on the block. Just bang already, for God's sake. He is not Jon's target this time though, who wants Keith out for being a challenge threat. They decide to split the votes just because they can, and now Natalie is wondering if she should take this opportunity to make a move and vote out Alec instead. She wants to keep Keith for the same reasons Jon wants him out - he could beat Jon in challenges.

| More character development for Jon |
At tribal council, Keith is called out directly for being a challenge threat. A rat interrupts the discussion and that somehow becomes a segway into Jon talking about his dad. He gets very emotional about how he didn't make up with him sooner, but Keith argues it might be a ploy for the jury.
Time to vote, and both Alec and Keith are forced to vote for eachother in order to survive. The last vote comes up for Alec, which gets a shocked reaction out of Jon and Missy. Well, Natalie has made a statement here. Time will tell if saving Keith was worth giving up the element of surprise, though.
STAR OF THE WEEK: KEITH NALE
Keith hasn't always made the smartest moves, but he's now the last man standing from his alliance. The fact he's in the final six is almost inexplicable. He's dodged a lot of bullets to get to this point, and with Natalie having his back, he might not be done next week either.
