Survivor season 46 episode 4 preview: Bhanu admits he "said something wrong"
By Bryce Olin
Survivor season 46 episode 4 is only days away, and it looks like might be one of the season's best episodes so far. The "Next Time on Survivor" teaser was released after Randen was pulled from the game by medical evacuation and Yanu was able to skip what would have been their third tribal council in a row.
We shared a preview of what's next in episode 4, titled "Don't Touch the Oven."
Episode 4 date and time
Survivor season 46 episode 4 airs at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. C on CBS on Wednesday, March 20, 2024. We all know fans in the Pacific timezone will be waiting to watch at 8 p.m. PT, too! Thankfully, the series won't take the week off because of March Madness 2024.
If you can't watch the episode live on CBS, you can also watch the new episode on Paramount+.
Bhanu admits to a huge mistake
In the teaser, we don't see a lot of the Yanu tribe, who scored a huge break when Randen was evacuated from the game with a medical emergency. But, we do seen Bhanu admitting to Tiff and possibly Kenzie that he "said something wrong."
It's unclear which wrong thing that Bhanu says that's wrong, but there are a few possibilities. He could be referring to blowing up Kenzie, Tiff, and Q's game to Ben and Liz. He told them Kenzie is running the show behind the scenes, and that Tiff and Q are inseperable. That's obviously a huge, huge, huge admission that could immediately place a target on the backs of the other three Yanu members should they make the merge.
Kenzie is a very charismatic player, so most people can see her strategy and how she's playing, but if she can't develop relationships because people are afraid to work with her, that's not great for her game. On the other hand, Tiff and Q are in an alliance, but it doesn't seem totally true that they are in lockstep. Q and Tiff are playing their own game, but if the perception is they are in tandem, that's a huge threat heading into the merge.
The other thing that Bhanu could be referencing is Q's plan to save Bhanu and blindside Kenzie should they lose immunity again. Q sees the game that Kenzie is playing, and while he wants to work with her, he doesn't know if he could full trust her.
Bhanu revealing either of those things would obviously upset the rest of his Yanu tribe members.
Siga finds something interesting at camp
The teaser begins with the members of the Siga tribe digging something up in the middle of their camp. In the clip, Moriah says, "We found something mysterious. Our brains melted."
I have literally no idea what it could be other than the locked box with the hidden immunity idol. Perhaps they dug up the box, but they didn't see the clue, so they're confused about why the box is locked? We'll have to wait and find out. That seems to be one of the least interesting things happening in the clip.
Tevin targets Soda in the Nami tribe
Everything was going great for the Nami tribe until episode 3. They won every single challenge to date, and before Randen was injured, it didn't look like they were really ever threatened in a challenge so far. That all changed in the third episode when Hunter basically carried the team to an immunity challenge victory while Siga and Yanu struggled in the beanbag tossing portion of the challenge.
When they returned to the beach, Randen was pulled from the game, and now, things aren't looking that great for Nami. Luckily, Randen shared an update, and he's fine. First of all, without Randen, the tribe doesn't have the physical advantage over the other two tribes that it had. It also looks like, from the clip, things aren't going all that well.
Tevin mentions that "Soda got to go-da." Yikes! It's hard to understand what exactly happened since the context is missing from the clip. Is Tevin gunning for Soda? Did Soda try to target Tevin?
There are only 15 castaways left! Who will be voted out in episode 4? We'll just have to find out next time on Survivor!
