Last week's premiere of Survivor 50 was the most-watched episode of the CBS reality series in four years — and for good reason! To say the milestone season started off with a bang would be an understatement. The cast of 24 all-stars hit the beach ready to play, with some long-term rivalries squashed, while others reignited. The first vote of the season blindsided one of the show's original players, but we all got walloped at the end of the three-hour episode with a devastating medevac.So where do we go from here? This week's episode was one marked by dual storylines of tension and cooperation. The "Billie Eilish Boomerang Idol" led to yet another cross-tribal connection, which may be the saving grace for one player. Arguments flared up both between and within tribes, leaving multiple people on the chopping block. And two players decided to mount a high-stakes idol gambit, setting up what should hopefully be an incredibly exciting Tribal Council moment down the line.Here's our spoiler-filled recap of tonight's episode of Survivor 50, including who went home.

Who got voted off on Survivor 50 tonight?

Savannah Louie's five-day journey on Survivor 50 was marked with a series of unknowns. The Season 49 winner was one of the biggest X-factors of the cast, with the other players having not seen her season. As a result, she decided to come clean immediately to her tribe about her success, hoping to set up a trustworthy perception. Unfortunately, anything she was building up tumbled like a precariously stacked tower of blocks once she went on a journey. Defeating Colby Donaldson, she won a secret "Block-a-Vote," and chose to lie to her tribe about it. But it wasn't long before they became wary of what she was saying, convinced (correctly) she had an advantage. Going back to Tribal Council, Savnnah's plans of a foursome with her Joe Hunter, Ozzy Lusth and Rick Devens blew up when Joe and Rick got into a fight. And so she went along with the plan to target Ozzy, hoping people would similarly go after his tight alliance with Cirie Fields. But, as they say, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't. Feeling Savannah was showcasing how dangerous she was with her secretive gameplay, she was taken out in a unanimous vote. And, despite her "mean girl" perception from her winning season, Savannah was in happy tears as her torch got snuffed for the first time, grateful to have come back just ten days later and showcase how vulnerable she had become from the game.

Were any idols or advantages found or played on Survivor 50 last night?
Yes! As was speculated by some Survivor fans, there seems to be a "Billie Eilish Boomerang Idol" hidden at each tribe's camp. This time, Christian Hubicki was the one to acquire the new advantage. He decided to pick Aubry Bracco for the recipient, hoping it would create a bond between fellow superfan strategists. The fun part is, Aubry's tribe had just gone through her bag, fearful she had an idol. So, just when their worries were assuaged, their worst fears have actually come true!
Ozzy vs. Coach! Rick vs. Joe!
Given all of the drama that went down with Benjamin "Coach" Wade snaking Ozzy for the key in the "Fight for Supplies," as well as the retelling of what happened across tribes, it was only a matter of time before a confrontation happened between the two men. That matter of time, it turned out, was the Reward Challenge. Coach set the record straight on what happened, saying, "I want everybody to know this is the same Coach you've always seen. I'm playing this game with as much dignity as possible. I've been playing this game the way I've always played it for 101 freaking days.""Yeah, I think he is playing the way he always played it," Ozzy added. "At least the last time I played with him."Little did Ozzy know he would be witnessing another rivalry brewing on his own beach. Throughout the episode, Rick complained about Joe's play style, saying he essentially had to "work around him." When Rick pulled Joe aside, but refused to talk to about their alliance, it sent red flags up to the fire captain. After the Immunity Challenge, the two hashed things out, and tension boiled over. "Just to defend my game," Joe said, "which you said you never wanted to work with or can't work with—""You're twisting my s—t up," replied Rick, rolling his eyes. "If you don't have time for me, that's one thing."The former newscaster's fury had him going after Joe, arguing he was impossible to play with due to his "inflexible" gameplay. For what it's worth, the two were able to get on the same page eventually to vote out Savannah. But we shall see if this argument bears out during next week's tribe swap.

A real idol found — and a fake one hidden
As mentioned above, Christian found the idol on his tribe's beach this episode. In the scramble before Tribal Council, he decided to reveal this to arguably his number one ally, Rick. And so the "idol hound" went full Captain Kirk, coming up with a plan equal parts dangerous and devious. Using the wrapping from Christian's idol, they would create a fake one and hide it in the Tribal Council set. That way, should they ever need to make a last-minute gambit, they could pretend they discovered something to hopefully save them from elimination.And so, while that night's vote was far from tense, what happened next was. As Savannah walked out of the game, Rick slowly put his hand into his bag. Getting up to grab his torch, Christian staged a fall, drawing everyone's attention. It was the perfect distraction for Rick, who slipped the fake in right next to the fire pit. We shall see how — and when — either one will pull it out to cause some textbook Tribal Council fireworks.
