What Happened in the Season 48 Finale?
The episode began with five contestants still in the game:
-
Joe Hunter
-
Eva Erickson
-
Kamilla Karthigesu
-
Kyle Fraser
-
Mitch Guerra
They returned to camp after Shauhin Davari’s elimination. Kamilla and Kyle celebrated their successful strategy, while Joe and Eva questioned whether they had been outplayed.
Early Challenges and Strategic Moves
The next morning, the players competed for an advantage in the immunity challenge. Eva won the initial competition, gaining an edge.
During the actual immunity challenge, Kamilla made a stunning comeback, solving a puzzle to win both immunity and a reward. She took Eva with her to the sanctuary, raising suspicions back at camp.
Mitch tried to form a plan with Kyle to target Joe. But Kamilla, aiming to control the vote, told Kyle she wanted Mitch out. She later confirmed the same to Mitch. Ultimately, Mitch was voted out at tribal council.
The Final Four: Tensions Rise
With four players left, Kamilla confessed to Kyle that sitting beside him at the final tribal wouldn’t be her best path to victory. She promised to make Joe and Kyle face off in a fire-making challenge if she won the final immunity.
However, during the challenge, Kyle emerged victorious, automatically securing a spot in the final three. He chose to take Joe with him, forcing Kamilla and Eva into a fire-making showdown.
Eva initially struggled, breaking down while practicing. Joe even offered to help her prepare. In a tense tribal council, Eva defeated Kamilla, claiming the last spot in the final three.

-
Kyle Fraser: 4 votes
