Immunity Challenge! Keith announces that the new tribe name is Te Tuna which is dumb and would also make me hungry every time I said it, so it's twice as dumb. Probst explains that today there are two Immunity necklaces, one for a man and one for a woman. Well, that seems fair and totally not contrived and like something they've done a million times. Wait, have they ever done that before? Possibly, but not very often because nothing is springing to mind. Then again, I'm old and my mind is feeble. Anyway! The challenge is to stand on a perch and hold a coconut between two ropes, using them like a hammock. If you give any slack to the ropes, the coconut will fall and you're out. If you step off the perch, you're out. At various intervals, they will have to make the ropes longer, which will make it more difficult. Everyone ready? Take your places and let's go! Sidenote: I would be terrible at this because I have really terrible forearm, wrist, and hand strength since I had kids. I don't know what happened but I can't open jars or hold heavy pots or whatever without shooting pains. In case you were wondering how I would do on this challenge, and no one was, so moving on.

Another rule that Probst forgot to mention in the opening was that you can't let the ropes or coconut touch your body, like use your torso to balance it. And Edna does, so she's out first. Useless. Cochran is out second. Also, useless. The first round ends and they lengthen the ropes for the second round. Whitney goes out pretty much immediately, so that means either Sophie or Dawn will win immunity. Probst is barely done saying how Sophie is doing a good job when she drops her coconut, so Dawn has immunity.

But what about the men? Everyone but Cochran is still playing. Coach is out next. Everyone is dripping sweat. I don't know why everyone didn't put a buff or whatever around their heads when they found out what the challenge was to prevent sweat issues. Rick the Cowboy is out next, followed quickly by Jim and Keith (who has a little temper tantrum).

And it's time for the final lengthening of the ropes. I have to admire the challenge producers this round; they found an endurance challenge that does require some stamina but it isn't like in seasons past where it takes hours and hours of boring standing around. So only Brandon, Ozzy, and Albert are left. Brandon tries to adjust his grip and drops his coconut, leaving only Ozzy and Albert. Ozzy is wobbly but Albert has a very strange posture and he can't really move around to get more comfortable. He ends up dropping his coconut and stupid Ozzy wins immunity.
