Pat and Jessica-Jane escorted Emily to the Trial. “I do feel a little under pressure because we had such an amazing meal last night so I don’t want to bring back 2, 3 or 4 stars. I want to come back with as many as possible so we can have another feast.”
Coral Grief
Australian model Emily Scott undertook today’s Bushtucker Trial. It was called Coral Grief and was set in a giant tank with a sandy ocean floor. Spread around the floor were covered holes, each containing stars – but also other nasties. To make it even more unpleasant for Emily, there was a crocodile in the tank with her. Emily had to dive to the bottom of each hole and one by one, retrieve the stars, depositing each one into a chest at the side of the tank, before getting the next. There were 11 possible stars, and 11 meals for camp.
This challenge was made for me. I dived down to the bottom of the pool when I was a kid so I just kept going back to those memories and I really really wanted to get as many stars as possible to take back to those guys tonight and I’m just stoked because
She took the lid off the first hole and dived to the bottom of the perspex box that it covered. The box contained crabs, but Emily managed to retrieve a star. She put it in the chest than swam back and did the same with the second.
Next up was a hole containing eels. Again, she dived down to retrieve the star, deposited it on the side and retrieved the next.
The third both contained two stars – and axiotles and catfish. Again, she successfully retrieved the stars.
Starting to tire, she pulled the cover off hole number four which was full of fish. Diving down amongst the creatures, she found a star and then a second star.
And finally, the last box contained yabbies and three stars. Struggling to maintain her strength, she swam back and forth to the side of the tank, each time with a star, making her grand total 11 stars, the maximum number available and the maximum number of meals for camp. It’s the first time this series anyone in the camp has won the maximum number of stars.
“I couldn’t see anything. That was intense” she said afterwards.
Great Scott!
After winning the maximum number of stars, Emily said “This challenge was made for me. I dived down to the bottom of the pool when I was a kid so I just kept going back to those memories and I really really wanted to get as many stars as possible to take back to those guys tonight and I’m just stoked because they’re going to be really happy.
Emily’s success seemed to vindicate Pat’s earlier determination.
She returned to camp victorious and hugged Mark and Dougie. Antony said “She got a full house and it was swimming so we did the right thing.
The discussion worked.”
And Crissy added “Youth did win this time but us oldies, we’ve got a bit more knowledge.”
