Reward Challenge: Chimney Sweep
The castaways would compete in an endurance contest in which castaways were ranked strongest to weakest in their tribes. These rankings would be used to determine the match-ups between each tribe. Each castaway would stand on footholds. After ten minutes, the castaways would move to smaller footholds. After another ten minutes, they would move to the smallest footholds and stay there until the challenge was over. A castaway would score a point for their tribe by outlasting their opponent. The first tribe to score three points would win.
Reward: An all-you-can-eat feast courtesy of Outback Steakhouse.
Winner: Villains

Day 22
Tree Mail arrives at both camps informing the tribes about the upcoming Reward Challenge. Both tribes will need to rank their members from strongest to weakest so they can face off with the same ranked people on the other tribe. Because it is a balance challenge, the Villains decide that the girls will play and Russell will sit out, knowing the Heroes are going to put their guys with big egos in the top positions. True to that observation, that is exactly what Rupert Boneham tries to argue for at the Heroes camp. J.T. Thomas, who played the challenge in his original season, advises against that strategy.

“ I think I'm the strongest of all eleven of us still here, but if they want to rank me as the weakest, I'll let them. ”
–Rupert Boneham
Arriving at the challenge, the Heroes get to see that Coach was voted out from the Villains tribe and became the first member of the jury. Rupert states that there is clearly an obvious women's alliance on the Villains tribe, which J.T. agrees with. The challenge begins, and host Jeff Probst makes the announcement that this day is Amanda Kimmel's 100th day of playing Survivor, the first person to earn that distinction. Later during the challenge, J.T. looks over to Russell and whispers over some encouragement, telling Russell to "hang in there", still under the impression of a women's alliance. Russell plays along and looks pleadingly at J.T. with his hands put together in prayer and shaking his head slightly.

“ The fact that J.T. thinks this is an all-girl alliance gives me a perfect opportunity that when we merge, to make him think I'm flipping. I done put that Russell seed in their mind and once it's taken root; they believe it. ”
–Russell Hantz

Trivia
Behind the Scenes
Life at Ponderosa
Upon being voted out, Courtney Yates remarks about being excited at being voted out and is relieved to have made it to the jury so she can experience the jury part of the game for the first time. Courtney's weigh-in reveals she lost 4 lbs., but the more serious issue for medical to examine though are Courtney's severely scraped up knees.

Courtney arrives at Ponderosa and is greeted by Coach Wade. As Courtney comes in, she and Coach talk about their long upcoming stay at Ponderosa, both are eager to be a part of the jury and Ponderosa. Coach then asks Courtney how he ended up being voted out. Courtney washes her hands and views herself in the mirror for the first time before eating the meal prepared by the resort chef, Russell.

The next day, Coach goes out kayaking while Courtney looks on. Later as they eat, Courtney blames the failure of both the Villains tribe and her own game at the feet of Tyson Apostol for his bad move that kept Russell Hantz in the game. Coach agrees completely that it is what started the downward spiral for the Villains. Coach and Courtney bond at Ponderosa and are worried at who might show up next that could disturb the two of them.[2][3][4]
