Taking all sticks up on top of the skull on Exile Island and lighting it on fire, etc. Back with Jeff and final immunity challenge. Aras says that morning went nice. Immunity back up for grabs. Must balance on series of floating platforms. Every 15 minutes they'll move to the next smallest platform. If they make it to last platform, there is no time limit. Just who makes it the longest. ONLY feet may touch platform. Anything else touches and they are out. Will have one minute on each platform to regain balance. Starting on first platform now. All getting balance and time begins. 15 minutes. Jeff asks Terry how he's feeling. No actual responses. Jeff says nobody wants to talk and he understands. Says it requires intense concentration.

10 minute mark. 5 more minutes on this platform. Danielle comments on how there are so many huge fish , that they should have brought their dropline. Jeff jokes that even in the middle of a huge challenge, Danielle is thinking about food. Time up. They have 1 minute to climb onto next platform and get balance. Looks like that was a little difficult but they are all back up and challenge is back on... All concentrating intensely. 8 minutes in and Aras has a bit of trouble but he recovers. 15 seconds left in the round. Move to third platform now. Jeff says this is where they will begin to notice significant increase in difficult. Aras has some trouble has to jump to the side, then he's in the water but makes it back up on the platform. Terry goes in the water but has 30 seconds to get back. Danielle gets up. Terry has 15 seconds... still having trouble. Terry is up but is having some trouble. Danielle seems steady as both Aras and Terry struggle. Terry can't do it and is out of the challenge. Danielle and Aras now... Aras struggling a bit and in the water he goes. Danielle wins immunity. Danielle gets the immunity necklace. Jeff puts it on her and says she will decide who sits next to her in the final tribal council.

That challenge was hard. I must admit I liked it better than their usual endurance stuff.

If I was Danielle, I don't think I would be so quick to take Aras to the final. I think she would have a much better chance against Terry.

Danielle and Aras exchanged a couple of looks and nods and Aras took a dive.

I knew Danielle couldn't be trusted. Terry was very wise last week.

I hated that "nod", looks like it may be Aras she's taking. Didn't she "swear" to Terry though?

I didn't see her winning at all. I'm a bit surprised. I think she's smartest to take Aras. Too many people on her team dislike her as a person. Terry would win.

That is right -- too many people did not like her, but they liked Terry less so that is why I think she is crazy to take Aras. More people liked him than Terry.

I think that Terry would even vote for Ara, as a tribute to his competiveness.

Yes, especially if Danielle does take Aras over him. Remember, she did promise Terry the two of them would be the final two.

I guess it really doesn't matter because I read the "spoiler" that was out a few weeks ago. We shall see. . . . .

If Danielle took Terry, I don't think Shane or Courtney would vote to give Danielle the money.

[Ed Note: Danielle was nodding but I wasn't sure if she and Aras actually exchanged looks or if he was just watching her.] Danielle says it was gratifying to win immunity but knows she has a decision to make now that could cost her a million dollars. She says that she promised Terry before and then confirms that she did give Aras a head nod during the challenge and says that he jumped off for that reason. Says it doesn't matter right now though because she's going to take someone who she thinks she has a better chance beating, not who she made a promise to... Danielle and Terry talking. Danielle asking Terry if he feels like it's fair for her to take someone who could beat her. She says that she didn't expect to be in this position but... Terry tells her if he had won, she would have already gotten his promise that he would have taken her. Danielle saying that if he had given her the hidden idol he would have definitely have her loyalty but... Terry tells us that Danielle is finding herself very confused right now. Terry telling her that he would take himself if he were her because of the whole Casaya thing. Danielle saying but that would show disloyalty to Casaya right there. He debates that a little but she asks that he not be mad at her and respect whatever decision she makes. He says that he would have to do that. Aras admits that he felt his first bit of paranoia in the game when Danielle and Terry went to get water. Aras telling Danielle that he would feel so burned if she voted for Terry after that. Danielle saying that she just doesn't know what to do... Aras explaining that if she doesn't take him, and this is not manipulation, she will lose Aras and Cirie's vote right there. Danielle looks a little stunned by that. Aras now telling her to at least tell her before the TC. She wants to go off and think but he follows her and tells her she better take him. Danielle says it opened her eyes a bit. That he says he plays so moral, etc., but now he's threatening her with his vote so she doesn't know what to think. Later Danielle admits she still doesn't know what she's going to do as they get ready to go... Terry tells her not to worry about it, that he's not going to put pressure on her, she has to do what is right for her. Aras tells Terry, regardless, it was a pleasure and they hug. Arrive at TC with members of jury being brought in now... Jeff wants to talk about the final challenge. Says that the two big dogs don't come through. He asks how it feels to have the immunity necklace. She says it feels great and honor to win most important challenge but the decision has to make is one of the most difficult ones she will have to make ever in her life. Still saying she isn't sure which way she wants to go. Jeff telling Terry he played the game as competively as it can be played and if it he can respect the position that Danielle is in? Terry admits it's hard because of how he's come through this game - in the middle of this he admits to having had the immunity idol and some of the jury seem surprised at this? He says that he still thinks it's in her best interest to take him but he can respect that it's a numbers thing for her. He doesn't want to go but he'll accept whatever she does. Aras says again that he thought they were golden and says he laid it out there for her when she told him she wasn't sure. Danielle saying it's been on her mind since she got the necklace and still having trouble. Time to vote. Even as she arrives at the paper, she looks to be struggling and taking her time to write but finally starts and puts the paper in the jar. Tally ho, Jeff! (Ok, not really tallying this time but whatever it was the last time I could say it!) Jeff reading the vote now... 14th person voted out... Terry. Terry said something to her? Why? Not sure. Terry gives them both a hug and takes his torch to Jeff. He waves as he goes and says, "Thanks for the journey you guys."
