season two of survivor took place in the australian outback with the first episode
premiering after super bowl 35 this would go down at survivor's most popular season with an
average of nearly 30 million viewers watching throughout the season the 16 contestants were
once again split up into two tribes of age ready to not only win 1 million dollars but get some
of that sweet survivor fame that had taken over the world since the borneo finale we start off
episode 1 with the tribes going on a five mile hike to their respective camps and when they
arrive we see the first couple of social dynamics play out scooping amelia takes the role as leader
on kucha while a bit of tension arises on ocacore between keith and jerry at the immediate challenge
okay wins sending kutcher to the first triple council of the season worries between jeff and deb
jeff had recently grown sick while deb had been dubbed as the weakest link of the tribe at tribal
council the tribe ultimately chooses to keep jeff voting out dev in a 7-1 vote the tribe has spoken
after losing deb scooping continued to rally the tribe together as the leader while jerry
continued to piss off keith by cooking for their tribe even though he was literally a pro chef the
tribes competed in their first reward challenge of the season where ocacore would once again win
earning themselves blankets but back at ogacore things would take an interesting turn
as jerry accuses kell of eating and stealing beef jerky but upon looking through his bag
the tribe finds nothing however jerry insists that kel had eaten some beef jerky and was
probably hornetted from the tribe so he can have it all to himself but kell insists
that this wasn't true and that he had simply eaten a blade of grass for the second straight
season the second immunity challenge of the season is a gross food eating competition
to which kucha won after kimi beat tina in the one-on-one duel despite tina costa and ogacore
the challenge and jerry causing a bit of animosity the first six days kel is ultimately the one to
pay for his quote beef jerky stealing and his vote out in a unam a seven one vote go driver spoke
let's start off episode three talking about the shoulder pull challenge the first installment
of this classic survivor challenge testing the survivor's willpower to hold an insane
amount of weight on their shoulders the tribes literally ran out buckets in this challenge
yet neither scooping or kobe gave in as the pole literally broke on scooping
so the tribes had to sell this in a runoff with the poles to which ocracore won
earning themselves fishing gear scooping continued to be the focus on kucha and had
a very eerie moment all things considered when he tried to hunt and kill a pig
why don't you guys come and help me surround them
yes
if i go out i'm going out full and i'm so happy about that
back at ogacore jerry and colby begin their survivor arc as they flirt with
each other for the first time at the immune challenge kucha won in large
part due to maryland's struggles and due to her failing not the challenge combined
with the fact that she was a weak link in general she was voted out in a 5-1-1 vote
mad dog the tribe bespoke
mitchell received a vote from keith here for some reason which would play a massive role in the
following episode speaking of that episode episode 4 begins with keith and tina feeling on the outs
as jerry basically told them that they were on the bottom at the last tribal council
at the reward challenge kimmy led kucha to victory earning three chickens and a rooster
as reward which was pretty ironic considering kimmy was a vegan cooch's dominance continued
as they won their third straight immunity on the last question the majority plan to vote
out keith but on the ride the tribal tina got coping to flip to her and keith's side
making it a 3-3 tie and due to that hinky vote from keith at the last tribal council on mitchell
that was a difference as survivor settler tied votes in the old school era by pass
votes and thus mitchell was eliminated despite never actually getting voted out
in the survivor rules in a deadlock you go to votes cast in previous tribal councils
tribe member with the most votes is a person voted out how many votes have you had cast
against you keith none mitchell one one one vote is the difference you need to bring your torch
in a long vote mitchell the tribe has spoken we begin episode 5 with the fallout from the last
tribal council with jerry realizing she didn't have as much power in the tribe as she once
thought at cucha we saw the first true iconic fight in survivor between kimi and alicia over
the amount of chicken the tribe should eat at the reward challenge kucha wins their fourth straight
challenge pulling ahead of ocacore on the last leg of the challenge leading to much frustration back
at ocacor's camp luckily in a must-win challenge okay used that frustration to clutch up and win
immunity sending kucha to their first tribal council in nearly two weeks alicia's target
was kimmy after their beef while kimmy and others thought alicia's overpowering personality might be
a problem down the road but ultimately the tribe unanimously agreed to vote out kimmy making her
the fifth person voted out of the australian outback tribe and mother nature has spoken
after losing the last immunity challenge kucha was frustrated because they knew winning that
challenge would have meant they would have gone into the merge with numbers thus making the next
minute challenge super important as winning it would give them six to four numbers heading into
the merge so going into the reward challenge kucha wanted to get some of that momentum back
and of course few up on chips and soda before the immunity challenge at the reward challenge amber
went off track and kucha took advantage to win reward leading too much frustration from colby
thank you thank you
but after the reward challenge things would take a massive turn for the worse
as survivor would prove to everyone watching at home just how real this
show was in one of the scariest and realist moments in reality tv history
what happened
was obviously evacuated and overcoored would receive the news back at their camp
and while they were obviously shocked this meant that the numbers would be even going into the
merge the merge doesn't exactly begin right away in episode 7 as the woman from kucha and the men
from ogacore are told to scout the other tribe's camp the kucha woman fell on the ocacore woman on
what happened to scoop in leaving them shocked while the coochie men get the sense that keith
is at the bottom of ogacore after meeting him in colby and thus most likely had some votes on
him jeff also expressed concern over past votes as kimmy had in fact told ocr that dev voted for him
at the first tribal council the two tribes then officially merged on day 20 and competed in their
first individual challenge the 10 castaways would simply stand on a pole for as long as possible
during the challenge jeff offered the castaways food if they were to step down leading to varner
famously stepping down for peanut butter kobe also quit the challenge early but this was for
strategic reasons as he wanted the cooches to put the votes on him at tribal since he had no
prior votes and knew he would be a massive target for the gooches in the end it came down to keith
and tina and the two realized that keith needed this immunity due to the amount of past votes
he had and after 10 hours tina stepped off giving keith the first individual immunity of the season
at tribal colby's plan works to perfection as the couches put their five votes on him while
ogacore puts their five votes on jeff and after the re-vote is once again deadlocked
jeff is eliminated due to his two past votes giving ocacore 5'4 numbers whoever has more
votes jeff or colby will be voted out colby how many votes have you had cast against you zero
zero jeff one that i know of enough you need to bring me your torch
jeff the tribe has spoken
so basically peanut butter not only shaped this entire post merge but would be the reason why
jeff was given a second chance and come back a third time to do one of the most heinous
things by a survivor player ever man peanut butter really is a game changing food and survivor anyway
episode 8 begins with cucha obviously feeling in danger while ogacore is stoked to have the numbers
as it looked like they would be the ones in the minority just a couple episodes ago jerry
then wins the boomerang challenge and takes amber with her on the reward however this ends
up being a reward for the other players as well as they celebrate not having to be around jerry
for the day at the mini challenge keith scored 17 points in a row to win the dawson boxes challenge
securing his second straight and muni win the couches had some hope heading into tribal
as jerry had made her building his presence known to the koochas during their time together
and thus felt that oklahor's might also be on board to vote her out but in the end
ogacor knew they had to put up with jerry for at least one more vote and they voted
out the biggest physical threat on kucha in alicia making her the first member of the jury
alicia tribe has spoken
episode 9 is a secret scenes episode but episode 10 begins with the conditions of the outback
starting to wear on the players the eight players then competed in four sets of pairs
in the obstacle course challenge to which colby and jerry won and the two spent the
day together at the great barrier reef leading to jerry's infamous comments regarding colby
i couldn't have come out here with a better person than colby we're having a great time
we're getting to know each other outside of the game and outside of that environment
this is basically the perfect honeymoon without the sex knowing he was the biggest threat out
of the cucha's nick clutched up in one immunity thus making elizabeth the target instead however
due to everyone loving elizabeth and everyone hating jerry and tina and kolby knew this would
please the future kucha jury members everyone other than amber hops on board to blindside
jerry ending the legendary run of survivor's first true villain jerry tribe has spoken
amber feels isolated from ocacore as she wasn't in on the plan to vote out jerry the final seven
are slowly starting to lose energy as they are down to their final servant of rice with still
two weeks left to play man 42 days really does seem a lot longer than 39 in that context luckily
the first ever survivor auction is held and the players get some much needed food and comfort
at the media challenge colby wins his first immunity of the season the ogacors
are worried about amber flipping especially as she starts to bond with the koochas but in the
end the ogle corps 4 come together to vote out nick in a 4-2-1 vote nick the tribe has spoken
the vote here was pretty interesting as even though we were being shown that amber was getting
along with the kuchas and was obviously in a swing vote spot after being blindsided at the
last tribal raj and elizabeth vote for her instead of tina or keith we also see nick voting for keith
as nick saw keith as arrogant for not bringing his backpack with him to tribal
the first sign that keith would be perceived as a goat by the jury it's episode 12 now
and this entire episode is basically dedicated to the conditions of the outback terrorizing the
final six seriously i think there are more talks about the conditions and overall camp life in
this episode than there have been and the 10 most recent seasons of survivor the six then compete in
a rope obstacle course challenge to which kobe won this reward fade colby to a t as he got the
travel to his reward on a horse and enjoyed some beans and beef stew food he literally enjoyed on a
regular basis this is also when i think jeff first fell in love with one of the players as he also
enjoyed the reward with colby and fell for his charm then again who didn't fall for kobe's charm
in 2001 colby wins the second straight immunity and it appears that either roger elizabeth will go
but in a 4-2 blind side amber becomes the fourth member of the jury remember the tribe has spoken
again really don't know what happened here since we basically got no strategy talk this episode
why was kobe left out of the boat what made tina and keith want to flip on amber i mean we
can speculate that they just simply wanted to keep elizabeth and roger around for as long as possible
but still give us something while i do think the elements need to be brought up more in modern
survivor this is a clear example as to why it shouldn't be the main draw of the show as we
basically got no strategy talk despite this being a big blind side it's episode 13 and we are down
to the final five and the final five start off the day in the best of ways as tremail tells them that
their loved ones will be paying them a visit well it's not an actual visit as the loved ones are
remote but hey it's better than nothing the loved ones then competed in a challenge answering trivia
questions via instant messaging tina's family won after answering four questions correctly winning a
30 minute internet chat with tina keith also took this opportunity to propose to his girlfriend to
which she accepted at the meeting challenge colby wins his third straight immunity guaranteeing
himself a spot in the final four it looked to be an easy and boring boat as elizabeth was
overcoored's target however roger offers himself up to the ogre cores as he thought elizabeth
needed the money more than him colby also caught in place voting for keith as he wants to bring
the most deserving people to the end and didn't think keith belonged but in the end the oval
corps 3 stuck together and honored roger's wishes voting him out in a 3-2 vote roger travis spoke
there are now only four players left standing and they compete in their final reward challenge of
the season an obstacle course spilled our previous challenge components for a chance at redemption
colby continued his winning streak and won a good night's sleep a shower
and a meal however the main prize was a pontiac aztec but colby and many other future survivor
players would go on to regret winning a new car during colby's dinner he was surprised by
his mother and colby's mom would also give care packages to everyone back at camp rejuvenating
their spirits for the end game with even more energy now colby dominated the immunity challenge
making that four straight immunity wins however he was once again put in the dilemma of taking out
keith who he felt was undeserving of the final three or taking on elizabeth who was obviously
a massive jury threat being that she was the last kucha standing in the end keith is spared
in large part thanks to tina and elizabeth is the final coochie member to be sent home
elizabeth the tribe has spoken
it's the finale now and there are three players left with only one more challenge
yeah not exactly the most interesting finale ever but let's talk about it anyway
the final three go on the rise of passage and reflect on their time in the outback
the final beauty challenge takes place at tribal as the three answer questions about the
jury members tina does put up a fight with this challenge even coming down to the final question
but in the end colby wins his first rate immunity setting a new survival record even
though taking keith to the final two would be an easy win for colby he instead brings
tina with him to the end feeling she simply deserved it more than keith making keith the
final member of the jury and the first and only day 41 boot keith the tribe has spoken
tina and kobe then face off against the jury colby pretty much tanks his final tribal council
performance as he says tina beat him when it came to the strategy and he didn't even have a closing
statement still his leadership and challenge dominance earned him three votes but in the end
tina's under the radar strategy earned her the necessary four votes beating colby to
win the australian outback becoming the second sole survivor doesn't get any better than this
three votes tina three votes colby in true survivor tradition it comes down to one final vote
the winner of survivor the australian outback
