The Villains' teamwork paid off at the "Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains" episode two immunity challenge, keeping them out of tribal council for the second week in a row and earning them an extra reward of tarps and rope for shelter.
Find out who the Heroes decided to send home after losing another immunity challenge
For the episode two immunity challenge, the tribemembers had to, in teams of two, move giant blocks from one end of the challenge area to another. They then had to stack the six blocks in a way that would spell out their tribe name on the side.
To even the teams up, Randy and Courtney sat out for the Villains and Rupert sat out for the Heroes.
The Heroes strategy was to all listen to and follow JT because he had competed in the challenge before. One can only hope the Villains had the same though, but if they did we didn't see it. I'm guessing they didn't have that thought.
In the beginning, the Heroes were far enough ahead that they had a team running for the third block before the Heroes had gotten their second block across the finish line. The Heroes seemed to moving a lot slower, except for Russell and Parvati who booked it across the line. Russell was actually moving so fast and pushing so hard that he knocked Parvati in the face. She wasn't phased at all.
When it came to stacking the blocks, Rob and JT were the leaders for each tribe. By this point, the Heroes had lost their lead and were getting frustrated. The Villains showed surprisingly great teamwork, while the Heroes struggled to listen to one another. This was really the first time we saw the Heroes get nasty with one another.
In the end, it was the Villains who pulled off the win. James seemed to be the most frustrated with the Heroes loss. He felt like they hadn't stuck to their one-voice strategy.
