If there was any sliver of doubt that it could be passed up, all hopes have been dashedwith the officialsynopsis for the finale this week.

"Castaways try to navigate their way to immunity when facing the biggest maze in the history for the game. Also, a fire-making challenge could change one person’s fate in the game, and, after 39 days, one castaway will take home the $1 million dollar prize and title of sole Survivor …"
