Survivor Tocantins Episode 2: The Poison Apple Needs to Go



In a quest for protein, the Jalapao tribe broke open a termite mound to eat the termites. At Timbira, Sierra decided that she needed help following the clues to the special first Tribal Council-only Hidden Immunity Idol and she recruited Brendan in the search. Together they went to the beach to follow the clues, but were caught digging a large hole in the beach by Debbie and had to stop their search. Sierra came up with the cover story that Brendan and her were building a fire pit for the tribe that night, which Debbie believed and relayed to the rest of the tribe. Candace and Coach argued over cooking the afternoon meal on day 5. Back at Jalapao, Taj told her tribe that she was married to Eddie George. At the start of the Reward/Immunity Challenge, Jeff announced Exile Island, that there was a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol at Exile Island, and there was a twist to Exile Island. Jalapao overcame a 0-2 deficit to win the challenge and chose to send Brendan to Exile Island. Jeff announced that the twist to Exile Island was Brendan could choose one person from the winning tribe to join him on Exile Island and he chose Taj. JT and Stephen put their newly acquired fishing gear to use, but did not catch anything. On Exile Island, Brendan and Taj found two urns and each had to choose one. Brendan’s urn contained two notes: the first note was a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol which he could optionally share with Taj and the second note telling him that he could switch tribes if he wanted to. After some pestering by Taj, Brendan shared the clue with her and they realized that the clue hinted that there was a Hidden Immunity Idol back at each tribe’s campsite. They agreed to work to get sent back to Exile Island together to collect more clues. At Timbira, Candace lobbied her tribemates to vote for Coach, but her negativity backfired upon her and she became the target to vote out. When Brendan returned back to Timbira’s campsite, he lied to his tribemates telling them that Taj had the urn with the clue and that she went to look for the Hidden Immunity Idol on her own, but did not appear to have found it.
