Tarzan of Survivor One World fame once said, “The game is afoot, since inspiring a reward challenge that will appear in the next episode of season 35.
One of the fairest dexterity challenges out there for Survivor to play involves getting everyone out of their comfort zone in order to perform a task. Hardly anybody uses their feet as dextrous limbs as if they were hands, making it a perfect challenge for Survivor season 35, Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers, to bring back for a Final 9 Reward Challenge.
The sneak peek of this week’s double-length episode has been uploaded to the CBS Survivor YouTube channel, taking us to the day after the last Tribal Council. The challenge facing the remaining nine players is “The Game is Afoot,” named after Tarzan from Survivor One World‘s infamous catchphrase. Both previous times it has been used as an Immunity Challenge, yet Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers treats the winner to a divine reward instead.
Players must loosen a rope carrying wooden blocks using only their feet. Again, using only their feet, each player must then stack their blocks in a circular fashion and plant a flag in the center in order to win reward. This time, players are competing for a trip on a seaplane above the islands, after which they are fed cheeseburgers, french fries and beer.
Yesterday, CBS revealed the synopsis for Survivor season 35 episode 10, wondering if a “secret agent” could keep their cover or if they would be discovered at some point of this upcoming two-hour show. Knowing how individual reward challenges usually let the winner bring players along for the ride, it could be a possible opportunity for some intel espionage taking place on this reward getaway.

Either way, with two players at a minimum leaving the Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers game after this week, there are not many clues left to look for in this sneak peek. With nine players left in the season, the game is definitely afoot in more ways than one.
