Heidi manages to fool Danny on this week's Survivor

Tonight's episode of Survivor saw the cast members reeling from the previous Tribal Council elimination. As they returned to camp, Carolyn vented out her frustrations to Carson and Yam Yam leaving her out of the decision making vote. Her two allies were concerned about her reaction in public, leading Yam Yam to walk away from the conversation. Carolyn, for her part, felt betrayed.

The official synopsis of the episode, titled I'm Not Worthy, reads:

"Castaways must keep their heads above water in the immunity challenge to be guaranteed a spot in the final six; there is a mad dash before tribal council as castaways must decide who to target."

The Survivor gameplay began with Danny trying to find out who voted for him. What he didn't know was that it was his close ally Heidi. Meanwhile, the latter thought Danny was going to be eliminated and wondered how he was still there. She had to now do damage control and denied voting for him. She also expressed that maybe Frannie, who was eliminated last week, voted for him.

After the former Tika members Carson, Carolyn and Yam Yam made amends, the latter revealed to Danny that Heidi voted for him. He decided to talk to her and see if it was true, but she denied voting for him and he believed it. Moreover, Danny thought that his ally would never vote for him and that Yam Yam had lied to him.

Danny also thought that Yam Yam voted for him to frame Heidi and decided to target a former Tika member at the Tribal Council on Survivor.
