Welcome Amazigh Tribe to your first Council of the merge.

Here's where the fun begins. Stranded is know for its dramatic councils and if it's quiet you know something big is about to happen.

First things' first, Mike, Alec and Clay... You won Individual Immunity. Are you guys keeping it? You have 5 minutes to give it away if you so choose.

Voting will be due at 8:30:00 sharp.

Hi Jeff

[Jeff Probst]

Hey guys, sorry for being 10 minutes late got hung up on a phone call with a client.

Angela, is there a sense that the game has ramped up as people are vying to make end game now?

[Mike]

Sorry Jeff, but I'm gonna keep it today.

[Alec]

Me and this necklace

[Jeff Probst]

Kellyn, are original tribal lines being relied on heavily tonight or has the time in different swapped tribes complicated thiings?

[Jeff Probst]

Stephanie, last time you were at Tribal Council things were not looking too good for you, where do you stand tonight?

[Sebastian]

I made it in time

[Kellyn]

Kellyn, are original tribal lines being relied on heavily tonight or has the time in different swapped tribes complicated thiings?

Original tribe lines? Na.

[Jeff Probst]

Gabby, have you gotten to know anyone thatt you haven't previously met?

[Angela]

Hi Jeff! The merge ramped everything up because there are so many different people to try to get to know. It's a lot to keep track of, and it makes the game seem so much faster.

Stephanie, last time you were at Tribal Council things were not looking too good for you, where do you stand tonight?

I think in this game you can't really know where you stand until its tribal. A lot of things an happen in that time frame between immunity and tribal that can really throw it up for anyones game.

Mike, having been on Nomad previously, do you have an advantage in the merge since you already have spoken to everyone?

[Chelsea]

waiting for my exposure

[Jeff Probst]

Chelsea, what was it like reuniting with old tribemates like Sebastian and Kellyn?

[Jeff Probst]

Robb, how important is this vote tonight?

[Jeff Probst]

Donathan, the merge is often when people try to make moves, sometimes even during council when the messages are off... is thisi group playing hard currently or is everyone waiting to make their move?

[Danni Boatwright]

waiting for my exposure

so are her nipples tbh

Mike, having been on Nomad previously, do you have an advantage in the merge since you already have spoken to everyone?

Being nomad was great. I'm not going to lie and pretend there wasn't an advantage getting to know people before the merge. There are so many moving pieces in this game and anything helps. That being said I can barely keep track of what's going on, so maybe it was wasted on the wrong person...
