Day 4 and we begin at Camp Hiki.  Since Jeff gave the tribe a piece of flint
at Tribal Council, they decide to try and make a fire.  No drinkable water for
four days makes this urgent.  Nate tries and tries then gives up frustrated.
The women take over, as they did the previous night.  Rebecca takes a crack
at it, and succeeds!  Hiki celebrates as they boil their first pot of water.

Meanwhile, over at Aitu, the gang goes fishing and beach combing.  Several
fish are caught as well as crabs and clams.  Cristina shares that she is a
police officer and relates how she had been shot in the left arm and almost
lost it.  I can relate to that, having almost losing my right leg.  They then try
to trap some of the wild chickens which are on the island.  Ozzy sets up the
trap but Cristina is not happy with it.  The two debate the best method but
Ozzy knows best.  They net a chicken but the victory causes Cristina to go
off and sulk as the bird cooks on a spit.  Puka Tribe also sets up a trap for
chickens and bags two at once!  Yul and Becky, both of Korean decent,
form an alliance.  Over at Raro, Jon returns from Exile Island empty-handed.
He is dismayed that no further progress has been made on the shelter since
his departure.  He and Jessica/Flicka decide it's time to continue building a
raised floor.  Adam disagrees, arguing that it's a waste of time and energy.
But the rest prefer to sleep on a dry floor and maybe be warmer.  Miffed,
Adam seeks solace from his cuddle-bunny, Candace, who is more than
ready to offer it to him.

Day 5 and Aitu is out catching more fish, that is except for Billy.  He needs
his rest and must conserve energy.  Billy and Adam share this idea, and
much more, as we will later learn!  Ozzy is getting irritated with Billy's lazi-
ness.  Billy doesn't care what the others think of him, he feels like an out-
sider.  At Camp Puka, Dr. Cao Boi works another hands-on miracle curing
Jenny of a headache.  She also gets branded on her forehead by Cowboy's
healing ways.  At night, the good doctor annoys everyone with his ethnic
jokes.  Cao Boi turns out to be a bad Don Rickles.  The rest of Puka doesn't
appreciate his stereotypical humor.  Over at Aitu, the tribe doesn't appre-
ciate Billy's snoring.  Unable to sleep, they discuss throwing the next chal-
lenge in order to rid themselves of Billy.

Day 6 and tree-mail arrives announcing the next combo Reward/Immunity
Challenge.  Included with the poetic clue are shackles, indicating that the
tribe members will be joined as they perform.  Ozzy and JP again talk about
throwing the challenge.  The tribes gather and Jeff explains the challenge.
After Jeff tells them a story about Captain Cook's three voyages to the
Pacific, the tribes will be shackled as they must traverse an obstacle course
to recover seven answer plaques.  Once doing this, they must then match
the correct answer with five question plaques, then stand on their finish
mats.  At anytime they feel stumped, they may return to their starting mat
where a book containing the story is.  Reward for the first tribe is a tarp.

The challenge itself is the usual fair of obstacles which must be crawled
under or climbed over.  Aitu starts off by reading the story book, wasting
valuable time.  Puka, Raro, and Hiki are dead even at first.  Hiki has some
trouble untying a few of the answer plaques, and they fall behind.  Raro and
Puka are out front as both arrive at the last station to match answers with
the questions.  Raro appears to finish first but not all tribe members are on
the finish mat.  Puka completes their matching and jump towards the mat.
Jeff seems to hesitate for a moment, then declares Puka the winners.  Raro
is second and Hiki finishes third.  However, a review of the tape leads Jeff
to declare a tie between Raro and Puka, so both tribes win tarps.  Aitu then
chooses Yul of Puka to be exiled.  Why they choose him is puzzling, since
he sat out the challenge, along with Adam of Raro and JP of Aitu.

Aitu returns to camp and Cristina is not happy at all with The Plan or with
Ozzy.  Billy knows he's in trouble and faces elimination.  Yul arrives on
Exile Island and reads the clues.  Like Jonathan, he knows he must form a
letter using a mast.  But Yul figures out that there are only two places
where the mast lines up with distant islands to form an 'A'.  Yul marks them
both and begins digging.  Low and behold, Yul finds the Immunity Idol!!!
Back at Aitu, Billy and Cristina go off to fetch water.   They hatch a plot to
boot Ozzy.  Cristina promises to talk with Cecilia, which she does.  Ozzy
suspects that Billy is scheming to save himself.  Billy hopes his plan works.

At Tribal Council, Jeff asks who has emerged as a leader?  Billy answers
that Ozzy has and Cristina agrees.  Ozzy disagrees that he's a leader, and
argues that he is merely knowledgeable and hard working.  JP then blows
the lid off the conspiracy and admits that they deliberately threw the chal-
lenge to boot Billy.  Jeff is amazed at this!  Billy and JP then spar about
work ethic and trust.  Billy then declares that he has fallen in love with
Candace of Raro tribe.  Jeff is amazed at this!  Jeff asks if she has told Billy
how she feels but Billy explains that they've only had eye contact and have
not talked much.  But nonetheless, Billy is enthralled by her.  The rest of
Aitu smirks and giggles.  Jeff wants to know what they think about this
romance?  Cristina ducks the question but offers that she's unhappy with
the back-stabbing.  It's time to vote.  Billy votes to boot Ozzy, and the rest
vote to boot lover-boy Billy. 

SPOILERS:  Nature bites back as an octopus attacks a contestant, possibly
one from Puka Tribe.  Parvati of Raro decides to work her assets and
charms.  Cao Boi continues to annoy the rest of Puka.
