In the 10th episode of Survivor Gabon, Bob admitted to Sugar that he made a a fake immunity idol. During a special auction, Randy got mad at Sugar after she gave the cookie Randy gave her (he gave one to each tribe member) to Matty. Randy started his mission in a quest to get everyone to hate him. Bob was sent to exile and had a personal enlightenment. Randy convinces Bob to give him the fake immunity idol. (Randy has no idea it is fake.) Kenny won individual immunity at the challenge. At tribal council, Randy played the immunity idol to save himself from being voted out and he learned it was a fake. Randy joined Marcus and Charlie at Survivor Ponderosa where he stayed as a member of the jury.

Survivor Gabon Episode Ten Recap
- EW.com: Behind the Scenes of Episode 10 with Jeff Probst (November 21, 2008)
- Eight Survivors are left, who will be voted out tonight?
- Nobag, Night 27
- Randy thinks Kenny and Crystal know the power is shifting. He believed he was the target but was relieved to see Charlie leave. Corinne realizes her chances of winning are slim as their alliance keeps getting voted out one by one. (Private tapings.)
- Sugar tells Bob that she wants Randy out. Sugar even acts surprised that Bob says he didn't find the immunity idol. He admits to making a fake idol. Sugar is impressed! Bob tells Sugar that she is the only person he will tell.
- Randy touches base with Corrine, they don't understand the "game" the other people are playing. They both admit to hating all the other players. They will try to get Matty to flip-flop to be on their side.
- Treemail is here! Randy read it: "Going, going, gone. He who hesitates is lost, nourishment and power, everything has its cost." Sounds like it's going to an auction, Survivor style.
- Yep, they each have $500, they cannot pool money, they also cannot share food in this auction.
- First item up for bid is beer and peanuts. Randy starts the bid with $20. It's Sugar vs Randy. Randy pays $180. Sugar laughs and says that she doesn't like beer that much, she just wanted to up the ante.
- Next item will remain covered. Kenny starts the bidding. Big numbers! Kenny pays $340 for a letter that says: "Send yourself or someone else to exile island. If you send someone else, you take all their money." Kenny decides to send Bob and takes his money. Bye-bye Bob.
- Next item is covered. Sugar bids $340 for peanut butter and chocolate.
- Next item up for bid is a hot bath and a clean set of their own clothes. Randy opens the bid with $320. Susie bids $340. Randy pipes back with "I'd bid $100 to bathe her (Susie) if she wins." Susie replies "That's not going to happen." Susie wins the bid. Sugar tells Kenny that she would have cuddled with him if he had new clothes on. Kenny asks Sugar if she would cuddle with a rich man. They both laugh.
- Susie is naked and in the tub.
- Next set up for bid is a hamburger with fries, pickles, lettuce, tomatoes, soda and sauces. Even silverware on the side. Crystal starts the bid with $100. It goes back and forth til Matty bids $400.
- Susie decides her bath is too hot and gets out early.
- Next item will remain covered. Kenny opens the bid, but lets it go to Randy for $280. Randy wins spaghetti, garlic bread and a glass of wine.
- Next items is a sealed note inside a bottle. The note will give you an advantage in the next immunity challenge. Corrine opens the bidding at $500! Kenny is the only one who can outbid her, he lets it go. The bottle must remain sealed until the challenge.
- Next item is covered, the first person who speaks up with 20 bucks gets it, but they will buy it for the tribe. Randy wins chocolate chip cookies for everyone! Randy then asks if he can keep them all for himself. Jeff reminds him in a pretty nasty tone "It's for the tribe."
- Sugar passes on the cookie, but tells Matty to take hers. Randy makes it clear that it's not Matty's choice saying "I'm the boss." Randy then offers the extra cookie to Corrine. She says that she'll only take half of the extra cookie. Randy then offers the other half to Matty. Randy then offers Sugar his own cookie. Sugar finally accepts, then turns around and hands it to Matty.
- Auction is over.
- Whoa, Randy is pissed! (Too funny!)
- On the way back to camp, Matty gives Corrine kudos for holding out and getting the advantage in the next challenge. Matty also thanks Sugar for the "gift." Randy quickly interrupts and says that it wasn't a gift from her, it was from him (Randy.) He then tells Matty that it's not his fault.
- Randy says he's ready to burn the house down in a private taping.
- Sugar says she's never seen a grown man get so mad over a chocolate chip cookie. (Private taping.)
- Randy tells Matty that no one will talk to him. Matty says that Randy needs to drop the attitude. Corrine asks Matty to work with her and Randy. He seems to be thinking about it until Randy spouts out "Fifth place ain't bad." Nice Randy, you just lost him.
- Exile island, Day 28
- Even though Bob couldn't find the immunity idol last time, he chooses to look for it again instead of choosing a bit of comfort. After seeing all the clues are the same, he gets a bit depressed then decides to go on an adventure. He climbs a huge hill and seems to be "One with the world" as he looks over the valley appreciating his environment.
- Nobag, Day 28
- Ken, Crystal, Susie and Matty agree to get Randy out next. Matty thinks that Randy might not be the one to get out right now because Matty believes Randy will never win a challenge. Matty wants Bob gone instead. (Sugar is now realizing that Matty is playing the game more and more. She thinks Matty is aligning himself with Randy.)
- Nobag, Day 30
- Randy warns Corinne that he's going to shake things up today. Randy plans to make everyone miserable all day to make them all vote him out, but he will get the idol from Bob, therefore holding all the power to eliminate Susie. Corrine agrees to talk to Bob to get the idol. Randy wants Susie gone because she's the one who flipped to the other side and voted out Marcus.
- Randy starts telling Matty how annoying Susie is. Many people are inside the hut listening to him, wondering why Randy is acting so dumb. Randy then tells Matty that he "whored himself out." Matty looks shocked and tells Randy not to do this. Matty gets up and walks away.
- Randy is now telling everyone that he could have put the cookies in the dirt if he wanted to. Susie says that she felt Randy didn't want to give any of the cookies away. Randy quickly replies "Shut the f**k up." Susie pipes back saying that she can talk whenever she wants.
- (This is so funny, he's sealing his fate, he doesn't have the idol, he can't get the idol! Even if Bob gives up his idol, it's not real!)
- Time for the immunity challenge!
- In this challenge, they will race across a series of balance beams (the beams teeter-totter) with a bag of puzzle pieces. They will head back to get two more bags of pieces. The first two to get all three bags move to the final round. In the final round, they will empty their bags and arrange them on a multi-angled platform that is set up with boobie traps. When the puzzle is complete, they will tip the first puzzle piece, knocking them all over like dominoes which will release a ball. First ball released wins.
- Corrine now gets to read her clue: "You will sit out of this stage of the challenge and move directly to the final round."
- And we're on! Matty is off to a quick start. Kenny soon follows. Bob is in third, Sugar gets sent back after falling.
- Matty is the first to move to the final round. Kenny makes second place.
- In the final round, it's Matty, Kenny and Corrine.
- Matty and Corrine start the puzzle from the front. Kenny makes his way through the ropes and starts at the end.
- Corrine is making progress. Kenny knocks his ropes on his way back to get more pieces and must start all over.
- Matty has the lead with only two blocks left.
- Kenny is gathering his last blocks.
- Kenny is going to give it a shot, but his are spaced too far apart. He must reset a few.
- Corrine is catching up. Everyone has set their puzzle, blocks are falling down everywhere! Corrine's stops short, Matty's stops short also.
- Kenny has won individual immunity!
- On the way back to camp, Bob and the others tell Kenny what a great job he did.
- Randy realizes he needs the idol and is going to start working on Bob for the idol.
- Sugar tells Bob that he can vote out whoever he wants, but that it might be in his best interest to vote out Randy. Sugar then tells Bob that she thinks Randy would fall for Bob's idol, and that it would be funny if it worked out where Randy got voted out. Bob thinks it will work.
- Corrine approaches Bob and tells him that their best option would be for Bob to give his idol to Randy.
- (This couldn't be more perfect, almost too perfect though!)
- Bob showed Randy the idol, Randy is thrilled!
- The deal is done, Bob gives Randy the idol, Randy promises Bob his vote for the million dollars if Bob is in the final two.
- Bob tells Sugar what he did, Sugar is ecstatic. Sugar promises to make this worth his while.
- Jeff wants to know about the auction and why it didn't go so well. Sugar says they've heard about that last cookie for three days. He says it wasn't the last cookie, it was his cookie. Randy thinks their reaction was harsh. Susie says that they are all getting to know people's true colors and she feels sorry for Randy. Corrine brings up that Randy told Susie to shut the f**k up and said it made for a tense day at camp. Crystal isn't sure if this is really Randy or if this is just his game.
- Randy says he is worried about being voted out tonight, but 30 days is a pretty good run. He won't be OK with leaving tonight, Randy wants to stay.
- Crystal is revealing her vote! She's over at the podium hollering "You made my life hell from day one!" Most people over on the benches are trying to control their laughter!
- All the votes are cast.
- Jeff asks if anyone wants to play the hidden immunity idol. Randy stands up with the idol. Everyone is totally holding in their laughter except Corrine and Bob. I swear it looks like Crystal is ready to pee on herself, tears are starting to leak out as she contains her laughter!
- As Jeff says that this is not the idol, Sugar and Crystal finally bust out laughing. Corrine and Randy look totally pissed. Even the jury members Marcus and Charlie are laughing.
- Randy has been voted off of Survivor Gabon.
- Randy's final words: "Being voted out by these bozo's is one of the best accolades anyone could get. The hell with these freakin' people. I hope Corrine does well if she was not in today's plot, and I don't think she was. You know, most of the others, with the exception of Matty, I hope they get bit by a green mamba."
- On the next episode, Bob tells Corrine that when Marcus and Randy threw the idol into the ocean Marcus really brought the idol back with him and hid it back at camp. He then tells Corrine that he knows where it is.
- Editors thoughts: That was the best episode of Survivor ever. History. Total awesomeness. I had to rewind it 3 times just to laugh. Way to go everyone!
