Cambodia Episode 4: Hero To Zero

Varner thinks he dodged a major bullet and is now in suck-up mode. Tasha seems to already be regretting not voting him out, but Abi is still fixated on Woo, who has now voted for her twice. Abi lets Tasha know she has a problem with her pulling Woo aside and talking to him. Yikes.

From J.T. to J.C.

Jeremy finally gets a look at his idol, but he's not telling anyone he has it. He wants Stephen to think he's still looking for it, not just because of trust reasons, but because he wants to keep a bond with him. He's hoping Stephen can tell him when he's about to be blindsided and then he can pop out his "get out of jail free card".

Angkor wake up, grateful to have survived another night at their hellhole. Savage tries to fish, but that proves to be a no-go. "It's a dead cove" he says. They get a treemail promising them food at the next challenge, but how much energy do they even have to compete?

Super Savage becomes the hero

The tribes arrive at the challenge, and they're playing for a BBQ. What they have to do is run down into the ocean, bring back three sandbags and fire them with a plank onto the top of a net. The twist here is...one person has to do it all by themselves. Savage, Terry and Jeremy end up being the ones stepping up...a true alpha showdown! All three of them take it easy at first, moving slowly through the water to conserve energy. Terry is the first one to get one in, followed by Jeremy. Round 2, and Terry is falling behind, but Savage gets it quick to take the lead. Terry catches up with Savage by the time they reach the catapult again, but Savage gets it in first for a huge win. Terry comes second, leaving Jeremy empty-handed. Tasha is so happy to have finally won something that she starts crying.

Angkor's victory was much-needed and they all enjoy their new food. More than anything, they now have a newfound confidence, Abi thinks they're going to win immunity and they all do their new tribe chant.

#KindKass: Winning friends and influencing people

Kass continues her transformation into the sweet, caring Kass by making Kelley a birthday gift (although Kelley thinks it's a fake idol at first). It's surprising to see Kass on good behaviour, but I'm loving this redemption arc. Meanwhile, Bayon ask Spencer for his opinion on Kelly and he makes sure to point out that she voted for him and has more friends than he does. Monica doesn't necessarily believe Spencer though, and would rather keep Kelly in case they need to form a women's alliance.

Future black widow in training

The immunity challenge is to carry back puzzle pieces blindfolded under the direction of a caller, and then solve the giant cube puzzle. Varner, Kimmi and Kass act as callers for their tribes - man, this might be the role Kimmi was born for. As they all get started, Kelly says she needs Kimmi to shout louder (really?). Keith is having trouble hearing Kass as well, despite being 1 foot away from her. Ta Keo start falling behind in the challenge after Terry gets lost, but Joe manages to carry back pieces on his own. The smacks start

Angkor weighed down

coming thick and fast, with Kelly walking face-first into a tall piece, Abi nearly getting crushed by a falling piece, and Spencer tripping right over one. Ta Keo actually manage to finish first despite their earlier problems, as a depleted Angkor run out of steam. Bayon win immunity next, and it's the same old story for Angkor.

Varner comes back to camp with a pretty bad toe injury, but it's not gonna stop the tribe voting him out. As much as Woo tries to talk sense into Abi it seems clear him and Varner are on the bottom. The one thing Varner has going for him is he didn't write Abi's name down, which is still a huge bone of contention for the Brazilian. Tasha tries to talk to her, but doesn't make a lot of progress.

At tribal council, Abi admits she's not sure what to do...keep the tribe strong or go with who has shown loyalty to her. Woo tries to say he's an asset, but Savage points out that even his physicality can be used against him, as he's going to be a threat in the individual portion of the game. Woo and Varner both passionately state their case: pledging their loyalty, playing down their connections, pointing out eachother's flaws. Both are giving it everything they've got to try and stay.

So who will it be? Well, it turns out Varner's time is up, which I didn't see coming. He calls Abi a bitch - affectionately - and then walks over to get snuffed, as Woo celebrates. I was loving Varner and wanted him to go much further, but he sure left a big impression on these 4 episodes. Now Angkor are going to have to dig even deeper to get out of their rut.

STAR OF THE WEEK: ANDREW SAVAGE

Savage has done his fair share of suffering this season, but he doesn't seem to be showing the burden at all. He delivered a very necessary reward to his tribe when they were all counting on him. You could say he's "literally carrying his tribe on his back".
