Hanging Chad

Water drips from various rock formations and plants. It's wet out, y'all, although it's apparently drying out and it's no longer actively raining. The team finds Jeff wearing shades he undoubtedly thinks are hot, hanging out at a challenge site where there are just eight big old telephone poles. He takes the immunity back from Ami, and he explains that they'll climb a ladder to the top of the pole, and then they'll climb onto the pole. Once on the pole, they just hang on as long as possible. There are notches where you can put your feet, but once you slide down to the bottom and your feet hit the ground, you're out. Last person left will get immunity.

They all climb their ladders and wait by the poles. Ready? Go. They all step out onto the poles, hanging on with all they can. Julie is the first to slide down the pole and plunk onto the ground. Chris falls next, and then Scout. Time passes. Ami goes down. Eliza hits the ground hard. Unbelievably, Twila literally hangs on to a rope around the pole with her teeth. I mean, she's not hanging by her teeth or anything, but she at least seems to think it steadies her, which I find to be a strange combination of freakish and admirable. Chad shows his first signs of weakness and quivering. Leann slides a little. Leann falls. Twila and Chad are left. Twila is standing with her feet on a ring of rope around the pole. And I really do think that as versatile as the WonderFoot 3000 is, this is one of the few times where Chad is really at something of a disadvantage, because part of the way you stay on this pole is by finding just the right way to mold your foot around a piece of rope, which is what Twila's doing, and Chad just doesn't have the option. You can see him trying to get the WonderShoe to sit against the rope in just the right way, but I just don't think the control of it is quite fine enough to give him the same flexibility he's got with the other foot. Finally, he slips off the last notch of rope and jumps down, and Twila wins immunity. She is given the extremely ugly immunity necklace, which she acts happy to have, because like underwear from your grandmother, it's a gift the attractiveness of which you really don't have the option of complaining about. Jeff sends everyone back to camp.
