It was time for the first Redemption Island duel and it was Semhar versus Christine. The challenge was to balance a wooden totem on top of a pole longer than the other person. Semhar needed to comfort herself before the event. Semhar recited spoken word poetry about what seemed to be a very personal matter. The looks from Probst to the other contestants seemed to indicate they were both bored and confused by Semhar and her spoken word. Probst asked her if that was calming and Semhar responded in the positive. Unfortunately Semhar lost the challenge anyway. She broken down after the challenge when she recounted how being abandoned by her tribe echoed her real life. Probst then pointed out that she sought out the show and not the other way around. Semhar responded by affirming that the experience proved she was a fighter. It was all rather confusing and slightly self-aggrandizing.
