Spencer used his idol on himself in Survivor: Cagayan Episode 9, which was expected by the rest of the tribe, as they voted out Jeremiah instead.
Their first task for the night is the Survivor auction. Popcorn, candy, and soda gets a $80 bid from Trish. Jefra bids $100 for a covered item: quesadilla, guacamole, salsa, and a margarita. Kass bids $20 for the next covered item, which she passes up for another covered item, a steak sandwich and iced tea. Trish buys another covered item for $60, but it’s a bowl of rice and glass of water. Woo buys ribs and a beer for $40 somehow unopposed.
Tony, Spencer, and Tasha acknowledge they’re not bidding because they are waiting for an advantage. Tony yells out $500 before Probst can even finish his sentence. Spencer joins him for a shot at drawing rocks for the advantage, while Tasha bows out. Tony draws the black rock, which gives him an advantage in the game, as if he needs one considering he has the ridiculous and stupid idol he already has. And now the auction is over. Tasha should have drawn rocks.
Having decided before the auction that he wanted to forgo everything else, Tony is bitter at his alliance once the auction is over because they forced him to sacrifice on his own. Anyway, what’s his advantage? A clue to another hidden immunity idol. Oh, now this is just plain pathetic.
Tasha seems to want to form an all female alliance. Spencer sees them talking and spreads this as far as he knows baseless information to Tony, knowing that he is the season’s most paranoid player, who plays hard but not necessarily intelligently.
Unsurprisingly, Tony has received a blatantly obvious clue to the idol, and he ends up finding it. This one he shows to his alliance.
For the immunity challenge, they will dig up bags from the sand then use the balls inside on a table maze. Tony is the first to dig up all the bags, but it doesn’t help him much. Tasha is the first to the maze. She has two balls in before anybody else even gets to the table. Woo eventually catches her at three balls. Jefra, Trish, and Kass are completely pitiful and are out of it. Woo makes things interesting, but Tasha wins immunity again.
Though Tasha has no actual agreement with the women, she hopes that mere paranoia can drive the vote. They can’t get rid of her, and the alternative of Spencer would reduce the female-male ratio down to 4-2. So Tony wants to blindside Jefra. Once again, Tony will not be telling his alliance of this plan. Rather, he is going to use the other side plus Woo to decide the vote. These people are idiots and deserve what they get.
Not trusting Tony, Spencer goes to search for the (already found) idol anyway. This is not lost on the rest of the tribe.
At Tribal Council, Tony says that Spencer told him that Jefra plans to blindside him. He takes out his idol, but it’s just for show.

With 4 votes, Jefra has been voted off the island. I bet that final four that lasted for about five minutes of last week’s episode is looking pretty good now.
