JB: I'm here near the stunning waters of the South Pacific on the small island of Bora Bora. Bora Bora is home to some of the greatest views in the world with its crystal blue waters, decadent white sand, and gorgeous, breathtaking scenery. But, it is also now the new home for twenty people over the next thirty-five days. This season is unlike any other. Brand new twists, brand new competitors, but ultimately it is the same game. One will outwit, outplay, and outlast all the rest and become the sole survivor.
*INTRO PLAYS*
-Day 1, Tesoro Isla-
*16 Castaways on Island-
JB: Welcome to Survivor: Bora Bora!
*Everyone cheers*
JB: Now, don't get so excited yet, this will be the toughest Survivor that has ever been played. Now, we are going to divide you into two tribes. The men will wear blue. You are the Vava'u tribe. The women will wear pink. You are the Tupai tribe. Here is another twist, there are still more people in this game than you sixteen. There are four more. Two of them are right here on this island. Come on out!
*Luke & Keeva enter*
JB: This is Luke. And this is Keeva. Now, they are special people in this game for your tribe. They are very important because they will be making big decisions for your tribe in the future. But, let's get to the main twist. Everyone here has an advantage. We have two people, Monty and Jaylyn, on Exile Island. They have gotten a clue to a hidden immunity idol and they will be immune and isolated from their tribes for the first three days. Now, Luke, Keeva, this is where you come in. You are the Tesoro Chiefs.
Keeva (confessional): What the hell is a Tesoro chief?
JB: The island that we are on right now is Tesoro Isla, or 'Treasure Island.' If your tribe loses an immunity challenge, your Tesoro chief will send one person from your tribe here. That person will skip the tribal council. They will not vote, they will not participate, they will not be voted off. It could be a good thing or a bad thing. It depends. Now, to the rest of you, two of you already have a hidden immunity idol.
Elyse: What!
Ignas: Holy crap!
JB: For two of you, you will receive an immunity idol if you make it to the merge. Only, if you make it to the merge.
Shawn: Oh my goodness!
JB: Two of you are MENSA members. Two people in this game are geniuses. They have an IQ in the top 2% of the world. And, they are your competitors.
Amanda: That's not me!
JB: Two of you are relatives of past Survivors. You have a family member that has already played the game before. That could be big.
David: Dang!
JB: Two of you are a dating couple!
Katie: Love is in the air...
JB: Now, two people are siblings.
Monty: Interesting.
JB: Two people are a married couple.
Livvy: OMG!
JB: And two of you.............are saboteurs, moles if you will. They are trying to make camp life as miserable as possible, doing their dirty work behind the scenes. If they make it to the merge, they will receive $50,000, and they will take somebody down with them.
Michelle: This is crazy!
Candace: Woah!
Luke (confessional): I mean, you don't want to keep the saboteur around for obvious reasons, but if you align yourself with him into the merge, he is gone, and he gets to take someone down with them. This saboteur needs to go ASAP!
JB: I have given all of you a lot to think about. The sun is beginning to set, so you guys need to head back to camp. Here are your maps, head on out.
-Day 2, Tupai-
Amanda (confessional): Today, we have just been trying to build a shelter, and I think it is key that we work as a team and bond. But it is killing me that there is a saboteur amongst us. For all we know, she could be hiding the machete. Pulling a Russell.
Katie (confessional): I am hiding the machete. Pulling a Russell. My goal is to wreck havoc, and I am the saboteur. If I make it to the merge, I will win $50,000 and exit the game. I will also take a friend down with me. If someone aligns with me, I will smile to your face while I am taking the knife out of your back. That is my job. :)
Rachel: I like you, and I think we should align.
Keeva: I agree.
Rachel: Yeah, and for the vote, we will just bring in whoever. I really like our chances.
Keeva: Absolutely.
Rachel (confessional): I chose Keeva to be in my alliance for now because I knew that she didn't have any relationships with anybody on the other tribe. Some people have relationships on the other tribe. Someone's brother is over there. Someone's husband is over there, and my boyfriend is there! So, at this stage in the game, I want to find out who has a brother, and who has a husband and make do.
-Day 2, Exile Island-
Monty (confessional): You don't get this opportunity very often to come to Exile Island before you start the game, and I have 72 hours to find an idol. Priceless. I should find it in no time.
Jaylyn (confessional): The reason why I haven't been looking for the idol is because I don't want a target on my back so early in the game, I think I would be setting myself up for suicide by trying to go look for this idol.
-Day 2, Vava'u-
Landon (confessional): Everyone is threatening in this game. Everyone has an advantage. Some people have ties with the other tribe! This game is a certainly a different way how to play the Survivor game, and it is challenging. You can't throw it out the window. But, Lawrence and I found a common trust with each other.
Lawrence: I get a good vibe around you.
Landon: Yeah, I do too.
Lawrence: I have the Merge Idol power.
Landon: Oh, really? Well, I am the holder of the hidden immunity idol.
Lawrence: Shut up! That is great!
Landon: Right now, we need to lay low. I want to win the challenges, so we need to have the strongest tribe possible.
Lawrence: Yes.
Landon: Once we all settle down, then we can form a big alliance.
Lawrence: Yeah, I understand everything you are saying right now. IT makes perfect sense.
Lawrence (confessional): I see Landon as a very knowledgeable man. We are both some of the older members of the tribe, but we have athleticism. I see Landon & I going very far in this game.
-Day 3-
JB: Come on in, guys!
*Castaways enter*
JB: Are you guys ready for your first immunity challenge?
All: Yes!
JB: Tesoro Chiefs, you have gotten to know your tribe, so you will name two swimmers, two strong people, one agile person, and three smart people. Do not include yourself. The designated swimmers would swim out into the ocean to retrieve a key and swim back. The swimmer would hand the key to the designated strong people to unlock a chain around two bundles of heavy logs. The logs would have to be carried to the next station where a designated agile person would use the log bundles to climb on top of a balance beam. The agile person would need to pull a second key along a rope twisted around the balance beam while remaining on top of the balance beam. At the final stage, the designated smart people will use the second key to unlock a bag of puzzle pieces and use them to assemble a statue. The first tribe to assemble their statue wins immunity. This challenge, originally from Survivor: Samoa, will see whether you know your tribe's strengths and weaknesses. The winners will also get flint in the form of fire. The losing tribe will send one of their own to Tesoro Isla, where they will be immune from tonight's vote. Does everybody understand?
All: Yes.
JB: OK, Tesoro Chiefs, I'll give you a minute to discuss your assignments, and we will get started.
*Tesoros designate*
JB: OK, for the ladies, Amanda & Candace are the swimmers. Michelle & Katie are the strong people. Elyse is the most agile. Janelle, Livvy & Rachel are on the puzzle. For the men, Landon & David are the swimmers. Jason & Brian are the strong guys. Marcos is the agile one, and Shawn, Lawrence & Ignas are the puzzle solvers. For immunity, survivors ready, go!
SWIMMING LEG
--------------
Tupai Leading,
Vava'u Trailing
STRONG LEG
--------------
Tied
AGILE LEG
--------------
Vava'u Leading,
Tupai Trailing
JB: Vava'u has a small lead, Tupai is on their tail! It comes down to the puzzle. Ignas is leading Vava'u. Janelle is leading Tupai. Vava'u has made zero progress. Tupai is onto something.
Janelle: It goes there! It goes there!
Livvy: We're done! We're done!
JB: Tupai wins immunity & reward!
Keeva: Yes!
Katie: Woo! No tribal!
JB: Ladies, well deserved. You guys proved that you can still hang in there with the men. Immunity & flint is yours.
*JB hands immunity & flint, Tupai cheers*
JB: Luke, you must send one person to Tesoro Isla. They will be immune from the vote.
Luke: Um..... I will choose..........Shawn.
JB: Shawn, Luke has sent you to Tesoro Isla. You are immune from the vote. Head on out.
Shawn: Bye guys.
JB: Shawn will return in time for the next challenge. Vava'u, you guys have tribal council tonight. The first person will be voted out in this game. I'll see you guys at tribal.
Elyse (confessional): I hope my brother David doesn't go home. He had a bad swim, so I hope they don't call him out for it.
Ignas (confessional): Of course I threw the challenge, isn't that what saboteurs are supposed to do. Don't worry, I'll get the blame off of me.
-Day 3, Vava'u-
Landon: David didn't do so well in the challenge.
Lawrence: Yeah, I know.
Landon: We want to have a strong tribe.
Lawrence: Yeah, but Ignas screwed up too.
Landon: He did, yeah.
Brian (confessional): The names swarming around camp have been David & Ignas, so I want to find the majority, side with them tonight, and don't put a target on my back.
Marcos: So Ignas tonight?
Jason: Yeah.
David: He's shady.
Marcos: He sure is.
David (confessional): Ignas should go because he performed the worst at today's challenge, and he acts so shady around camp. It makes me believe that he could possibly be the saboteur.
Ignas: I can't believe David performed so badly in the challenge today.
Landon: He could have done more, that's for sure.
Luke: Yeah, I agree.
Ignas: God, he was so bad!
Lawrence: OK, that's enough now.
Lawrence (confessional): I don't like how Ignas just buried David into the ground trying to defend himself. It's not like you did a better job, honey.
Brian: All that Ignas has been doing is trashing your performance.
David: That's just not right.
Marcos: I don't like him a lot.
Marcos (confessional): It's blatant that David performed horribly in the challenge. But Ignas did not do well either in the puzzle, what he claims to be his forte. And people are getting tired of his attitude. So, his attitude might make our tribe change our vote tonight.
-TRIBAL COUNCIL-
*Castaways enter*
JB: Behind each of you is a torch, go ahead and grab a torch, approach the flame. Dip it in, get fire. As you all know, fire represents your life in the game of Survivor. When your fire is gone, so are you.
*Castaways sit*
JB: Luke, you had to make some big decisions for todays challenge. If you could redo the challenge today, what would you have changed?
Luke: I wouldn't have put David as a swimmer.
JB: David, how do you argue that?
David: Well, I don't believe I was the reason we lost the challenge today. After the swimming leg, we were trailing, but at the agile leg, we were tied, so it isn't the reason we lost that challenge.
JB: Who or what was the reason we lost the challenge.
David: I believe that it was Ignas & the puzzle team.
JB: Well, Luke, you sent Shawn to Tesoro, so that means Lawrence or Ignas would go. Out of those two, who should go?
David: Ignas. He performed the worst.
Ignas: So your reason for you to stay is because after you did bad, people picked up your slack. I see, so from now on, we'll have to pick up the slack. And if you guys get rid of me tonight, then you will continue to have to pick up David's slack, and before you know it, you will be losing to the girls again.
David: Well, you were trashing my performance too, so don't be talking.
JB: Ignas, how do you think you did today?
Ignas: Well, everyone has their bad days. The next time, I will just be doing something else. There is more of a possibility where all of us will swim then all of us having to complete a puzzle. Maybe a should have taken a backseat approach.
JB: OK, well we have debated a lot tonight. But now, the debate will conclude. Who will be the first person voted out? It is time to vote, Marcos, you are up.
*Everyone votes*
JB: If anyone has the hidden immunity idol and you would like to play it, now would be the time to do so.
*Landon does not play idol*
JB: OK, once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be asked to leave the tribal council are immediately. I'll read the votes.
First vote......................................David.

JB: David, the tribe has spoken.
*snuffs torch*
JB: It is time for you to go.
David: Good luck guys.
*David exits TC*
JB: Well, it seems that after tonight's vote, you guys are committed to making a strong tribe to compete against the cunning women. Grab your torches. Head back to camp. Good night.
David (confessional): Well, my biggest fear was that I would be the first person voted off, and it happened. Of course. Well, I do believe Ignas should have gone, but the tribe has to live with their decision. Good luck sis. Elyse, go win this for us!
