AceShowbiz - After 35 days in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, only five remained on "Survivor" season 29. Baylor Wilson and her mother Missy Payne were the blood couple left in the competition, facing off against Jaclyn Schultz, Keith Nale and Natalie Anderson in the two-hour finale.
After the girls discussed Jon's elimination, they were all called for the reward challenge. In this game, they were attached to a rope twisted around a frame. Once they unspooled it, they moved to assemble bridge with wood pegs. Missy, who twisted her ankle last week, couldn't compete in the challenge.
Keith completed his bridge first and won the reward, which was an advantage in the next immunity challenge. He could also send someone to Exile Island. Keith said he couldn't send Missy to Exile, and chose Jaclyn instead.
The next day, the remaining four castaways played the immunity challenge in which they had to use two small paddles to move a ball through a series of obstacles. They had to move four balls to win the game and Keith finished it first, securing a place in the final four.
At the Tribal Council, Natalie used her hidden immunity idol to save Jaclyn. Baylor was the second most-voted after Jaclyn, so she was eliminated. Jaclyn was determined to win the final immunity challenge on the next day and planned to get rid of Keith.
In the final immunity challenge, they had to race down a tower and collect puzzle bags through a series of obstacles. They later had to assemble the puzzle and the missing piece would show numbers on a combination that they would use to unlock a box. Missy was unable to compete again.
Jaclyn won the immunity challenge. She talked to Missy about whether or not they should vote Natalie out of the game, but in the end Keith was voted out.
The all-female final 3 headed to the final tribal council. They spoke in front of the jury, explaining why they deserved to be the winner. Missy said she played with dignity and loyalty. Jaclyn said she had gone through a lot of difficult times but managed to overcome them, while Natalie claimed she had made smart, risky and scary moves.
The jury voted and the result was unveiled in the studio. Natalie got the most votes (5) and took home the $1 million prize.
In the season finale, it was also announced that the next season would start February 25 on CBS. It will pit white collar vs. blue collar vs. no collar, which are three tribes divided by socioeconomic status.
