"Locals believe this is the final resting spot for the spirits of the dead." "Yasur is one of nine active volcanoes on the island nation of Vanuatu in the South Pacific." "It is a land with a fascinating history of cannibalism, where rituals like sorcery and black magic are still a part of daily life." "It is here that 18 Americans are about to begin the adventure of a lifetime." "18 strangers, all from different walks of life, forced to work together to create a new society while battling the elements and each other."

"The game is about to begin, but before it does, you have to be granted access to the land." "So you're going to take part in a tribal ritual." "It is a rite of passage and an invitation to stay on the land, but in order to stay, you must participate." "It's going to impact each of you differently." "At times, you may find it beautiful, at times, you may be repulsed, and at times, you may be frightened." "Chief Mormor will preside over all of this." "He is a real chief." "I will be there, but he will guide you through it." "The tribes of Vanuatu take their spirituality very seriously." "The ceremony you're going to take part in is an authentic Vanuatu tribal tradition." "You are in a foreign country." "Remember that." "This is their culture." "We are only visitors." "It's time to go over-- three in a canoe, down the rope ladder." "( indistinct shouting )" "MIA:" "Jeff gave us an overview, saying how the customs of Vanuatu are not like we're used to, so I was" " I was really nervous after he was talking to us." "I'm like, "What are they going to do?"" "TRAVIS:" "Jeff informed us that we're going to climb down the side of the boat and we're going to get in these canoes." "I thought, 'Man, that's great,' because I didn't learn how to swim until six weeks before I come here." "I would've been spooked if I knew I had to swim."

"Like, we're, like, kneeling on a mat, and they all have, like, little, stump seats to sit on." "And they're, like, right in the center of the action." "We're kind of off to the side, and so I immediately start thinking, "What's with this?" "I thought we were all supposed to be part of this ceremony.""

"Uh, that we were getting ready to eat something or wash my fingers, 'cause it was some rustic looking stuff." "RORY:" "Chief Mormor offers each one of us this kava, which is the local drink."

"It is believed on these lands that this carved stone, and other stones like it, ward off evil spirits." "Last thing you want in this game is bad luck." "Possessing this stone could give you a spiritual advantage in the game." "As you've seen, men and women are treated very differently." "The chief is offering the men a chance to possess this stone." "The only hitch is you have to get it from atop of that pole, which has been greased with pig fat." "If you fail, the women get it." "The chief will decide in which order you go." "To show you that it can be done, he's going to instruct a tribe member to take it up and put it there now." "TRAVIS:" "Ever who possesses that stone, the spirits are supposed to be in favor."

"( cheering )" "BRADY:" "I was just praying to God he was going to pick somebody else, but he picked me." "As soon as he did, I figured the only way I'd even have any chance is to do it kind of like the other guy did it." "And I got a little dirt on my feet, in my hands and I just hung on for dear life."

"I can outsmart eight men a hell of a lot quicker than I can outsmart eight women." "Women stick together." "They're thick as thieves." "Men are deceiving, mischievous, untrusting human beings."

"I'm going with your years of experience and... and, uh, know-how here, because I don't want to..." "I don't want to walk around all night."

"If you fall off, or if your feet hit the net at any time, you got to go back to the start." "Once all nine have finished, three different tribe members will race to build a fire that will burn a rope and drop a torch." "Light it, cross the finish line."

"If we're going to stay in this-- the old people-- the only way we're going get a million dollars, one of us, is if we get rid of the young people." "LEA:" "But J. P. is the only one that is really trying to make fire." "I'd say Brook." "Brook is cocky, and we don't know where he lies." "I'll talk to Chad, I'll take care of it." "I'll talk to Chad." "CHRIS:" "I prepared to come here, mentally, and I prepared to play the game." "I'm not vulnerable at all." "We've got a plan." "I'm just trying survive the first couple days." "The one thing you got to worry about is you never know." "Those guys could smarten up, which I hope they didn't." "BROOK:" "Personally, I think there's a lot of young guys on the team, guys who are going to be targets." "I feel like I am one of the stronger, younger guys who's going to be a target." "Right now, we're in charge of who's getting voted off." "As of right now." "Know what I mean?" "Not necessarily." "Trust me, dude, he's vulnerable." "All right, cool." "You know what I'm saying?" "All right, cool." "I'm down." "All right." "BRADY:" "Well, obviously" "I haven't fully made up my mind on who I'm going to vote for yet tonight." "I'm thinking about Chris right now, but Rory, he's kind of on his own sheet of music a lot of the time." "I think maybe some people feel like" "Rory is maybe not putting out as much group effort as some of the other guys, and the group right now is where it's all at." "Behind each of you guys is a torch." "Go ahead and grab a torch, approach a flame and get fire, because in this game, fire represents your life." "As long as your torch has fire, you're still in the game, when your flame is gone, so are you." "Welcome to your first Tribal Council-- definitely not the place you want to be." "Somebody is going to go home as a result of today's loss." "But before we get to the vote, let's talk about today's Challenge." "Anybody here willing to admit that as they saw Chris fail, fail, fail, that they started thinking, "This guy is killing us."" "LEA:" "Oh, I mean, yeah." "Because it was so easy." "And I'm saying, "Come on, bring your big tail" ""across the doggone beam." ""We were ahead, now we're losing." ""All we got to do is build a little fire, blow into this torch and win over these females."" "JEFF:" "Chris, at any point while you're trying to cross it, are you also thinking, "I'm dead," "I'm going home tonight"?" "No, I wasn't." "I wasn't thinking "I'm going home tonight."" "I wasn't thinking "I'm dead."" "I don't categorize stuff like that." "The first night, Rory, he had some ideas." "He was getting on peoples' nerves." "Did I all of a sudden develop an opinion about him and think, "You know what?" "He's going home the first time I go to Tribal Council."" "No, I didn't think that." "Everybody's going to help the team some way sometime down along the line, and that's all I think about." "Rory, how are you fitting in with this group?" "I fit in fabulously well, and I love my partners here." "We've accepted every single thing that's come our way as a family and as a team, and I would expect that that's the way we're going to continue to operate." "JEFF:" "J. P., how close are you guys to crisis mode in terms of not having water?" "We're on red alert." "I mean, when you get into this game, you realize you take a lot of things for granted, and water is one of them." "You start getting headaches." "You can't get up." "You're lethargic, you start cramping." "It's taken a toll on all of us in some way or another." "Before we get to the vote, there's one other topic we have to bring up." "You got your first look today at the women." "Mm." "Bubba, that was just a little grunt, or a groan, or a..." "Jeff, I've said it once," "I've said it 1,000 times:" "you never underestimate a woman." "I knew going into this that these women were going to be fighting hard." "And I hope now everybody respects these ladies, 'cause they mean business, and they can kick our tail, Jeff." "JEFF:" "Brook." "Anybody you wouldn't mind ending up on a tribe with?" "Yeah, there was a couple girls who had really nice, um, tails, but I was real impressed with how competitive some of those girls were." "Like, it's one thing to expect it, and one thing to see those girls shimmying across that beam and grinding their teeth and screaming and yelling just 'cause they want to beat us so bad." "But, yeah, I was peeking over quite often when I got a chance." "JEFF:" "J. P., you had to be a little surprised nine women kicked your guys' butt." "I think as the group, we expected to win." "Nine males, Jeff-- there's nine of us!" "We're all... brute strong." "We're going to have to come in and play the game a little bit harder." "They just raised the level of the game." "JEFF:" "With that, it is time to vote." "Brook, you're up first." ""Chris."" "I'm making this vote to save my own butt, and it's definitely strategy." "Good luck, bud." "If you get voted off tonight, we'll miss your sage comments around camp." "Right now, man, it's all about team and winning." "Just playing the game, man." "I started playing it when I got to the beach." "It's all part of the game." "I'll go tally the votes." "Once the votes are read, the decision is final." "The person voted out will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately." "I'll read the votes." "First vote." "Chris." "Chris." "That's two votes Chris." "Rory." "Brook." "Brook." "That's two votes Brook, two votes Chris, one vote Rory." "Chris." "Brook." "Three votes Brook, three votes Chris, one vote Rory." "Brook." "Four votes Brook, three votes Chris." "First person voted out of" "Survivor:" "Vanuatu, Islands of Fire" "Brook." "You need to bring me your torch." "Brook, the tribe has spoken." "It's time for you to go." "Three different tribe members received votes." "You guys are going back to camp, no water, no fire, 'cause you're going to earn it or you're going to build it." "You guys can head back to camp." "Good night." "The one thing I didn't want was to be the first person off." "Who the hell wants to be the first person off?" "But, uh, during these three days in the game," "I don't think I have learned much about myself." "My only problem was the other 17 people here just gave me an absolute schooling in the game of Survivor, so..." "Uh, you know, I got beat." "The bottom line, some of them got me, they got me good." "Peace out, Survivor land."
