Survivor Season 41 Episode 11 started with Deshawn feeling the backlash from his previous ally, Liana. Liana feels she can’t trust Deshawn after he voted out Shan in the previous Tribal Council, but Deshawn swears he won’t write her name down. Regardless, voting out Shan put Deshawn in a tough spot with the rest of the tribe — and he feels the pressure.

During the daily challenge, Survivor Season 41 spoilers note host Jeff Probst introduces a new twist — “Do or Die.” Probst tells the seven remaining players they have a choice whether they want to participate in the challenge. For those who choose to participate, the first person out of the challenge has to play the twist. The twist happens at Tribal Council — and if the person who has to play the “Do or Die” twist loses at Tribal Council, they’re immediately sent home and Tribal Council voting is otherwise canceled. On the contrary, if they win, they’re safe from the vote, and Tribal resumes as normal.

Heather and Liana choose to sit out of the daily challenge. Erika, Ricard, Deshawn, Xander, and Danny choose to participate. Deshawn loses the challenge immediately, forcing him to play the “Do or Die” twist later on. Danny wins immunity.

Jeff Probst introduces the “Do or Die” twist at Tribal Council for Deshawn to play. The game is simple — Probst produces three boxes in front of Deshawn. One box contains a fire symbol, and the others contain skull symbols. Deshawn has to choose the one box that has the fire symbol.

Survivor Season 41 spoilers note Deshawn picks the correct box. He wins the “Do or Die” twist against all odds, protecting him from elimination. This also means Tribal Council continues as planned, though. During Tribal Council, three votes go toward Ricard and five votes go toward Liana, sending Liana home. Xander uses his extra vote to ensure Liana’s fate.

A sneak peek of Survivor Season 41 Episode 12 shows Danny stumbling upon some good luck. It seems the player finds an idol — and Ricard catches on that his attitude has changed.

Additionally, Ricard could be in trouble. Erika, Xander, and Deshawn are seen discussing a possible final three at the end. This also leaves Heather vulnerable moving forward.

Episode 11 marked the last time players could use the Shot in the Dark twist at Tribal Council, too. This could make surviving the Tribal Council vote more difficult moving forward, but we’ll have to wait and see what occurs with the final six players.
