==Story==
===Day 4===
After being the first person voted out the previous night, Reem Daly chose to stay in the game, going to the without knowing what would be required of her to get back in the game. Reem approaches the shipwreck with a lowered mast where she reads a message: "This is the Edge of Extinction. You will have to work hard for everything. When fear or loneliness sets in, you must find the resolve to overcome. If at any point you wish to end your adventure, raise the sail and a boat will pick you up." Reem is annoyed at the prospect of possibly staying there for an indefinite time. With boredom setting in, Reem keeps herself occupied by doing chores, though she cannot help but cry, pondering why she got voted out by her tribe.
At the Manu tribe, everyone jokes about getting their hands waterlogged following the previous night's rain. Rick Devens checks up on Wendy Diaz, who was left out after the vote. Wendy explains that she would rather stick with Reem out of loyalty than side with Kelley Wentworth, whom she finds to be a big threat.
Wendy points out that Kelley is already ingratiating her tribemates and the majority alliance has the power to vote her out. David Wright, the other returning player on the tribe, understands Wendy's sentiments, but does not commit to any promises.
Lauren O'Connell and Wardog DaSilva watch Wendy talking to David and Rick at a distance, and the two agree to keep tabs on her, especially when she is on the lookout for the Hidden Immunity Idol. Kelley joins them and receives a heads-up. Kelley and Wardog later warn the rest of the majority alliance about Wendy possibly selling them out come a Tribe Switch. Kelley suggests to find the idol as a group to prevent Wendy from getting it.
At the Kama tribe, Ron Clark leads his tribe to a song-and-dance number which he intends to perform when Kama arrives at the next Immunity Challenge, with everyone joining in the fun. Aubry Bracco is in it, though she remains uneasy feeling targeted as a returning player.
Later, Aubry talks to Julia Carter and Victoria Baamonde about how they feel about having returnees around and if they would consider working with her. Victoria says she is happy that Aubry and Joe Anglim are there because the would not have established camp as quick as they did without them around, but she does not give a satisfying answer to Aubry's proposition for an alliance and neither does Julia.
Julia and Victoria tell Ron about their conversation with Aubry. Ron is ardent that this is their moment and not the returning players'. Later, Aubry talks to Gavin Whitson as well. However, Victoria sees through Aubry's schmoozing.
Back at Manu, Kelley and Lauren attempt to look for the idol. Meanwhile, David and Rick suspect that Kelley already has the idol and only wants an open idol hunt as a distraction. Rick admits that he has no personal connections with Kelley. David suggests that he is open to blindsiding Kelley, but he suggests not to tell Wendy until they are sure that they want to pull it off.
Wendy joins the two and Rick admits that he and David both feel the same about Kelley. Wendy says that she can be a number for them to use if they feel like voting Kelley out. The two leave Wendy, promising her that her pleas are not for naught. David contemplates that Wendy's loyalty could be valuable and that he would definitely be open to working with her should the time come. David and Rick solidify their alliance, shaking hands in agreement. David tells Rick that he can eliminate him by the final four. Rick jokingly agrees.
Back at Kama, Gavin and Eric Hafemann agree to look for the idol.
While collecting palm fronds, Julia, Victoria, and Julie Rosenberg also suspect that a Hidden Immunity Idol is available. Julie notices that the men are increasingly becoming missing, suspecting that they might looking for the idol. The women are convinced that they should be looking for idols as well. All attempts at Kama end up in failure.
At Manu, everyone is on the hunt for the idol, but it is Lauren who successfully finds it hidden in a tree. Lauren hides the idol in the sand.
===Day 6===
The tribes meet at the combined Reward/Immunity Challenge where after explaining the rules of the challenge, host Jeff Probst reveals that they are also playing for reward—a choice between two options: spices, knives, and a cutting board, or fishing gear. Jeff reminds Aubry that she had done the same challenge in , in which she recalls the snake being heavy and her tribe losing. With one extra member, the Kama tribe sits out Julie.
Kama takes an early lead, while Manu quickly trails due to Keith Sowell's inability to swim, with tribemates staying behind to aid him. Kama enters the cage to untie the heavy snake, while Keith continues to slow down even when entering the cage. Kama has their snake free and carries their snake up and over the cage. Manu continues to struggle carrying the snake, but eventually take it out of the cage. Kama, still in the lead, begins opening the snake to look for their numbered disks as Manu begins to close the gap. Ron correctly determines the combination in one guess for Kama, allowing Joe to toss the rings. David eventually gets it right for Manu, giving the rings to Chris Underwood. Chris jitters, prompting Keith to volunteer but still fails. Eric takes over for Joe and continues his hot streak. Chris comes back, but it is too late as Eric lands the last ring, winning Kama their second Immunity Challenge in a row and sending Manu back to Tribal Council. Kama chooses the fishing gear as their reward.
Back at camp, Chris apologizes for the loss, but Kelley cheers him up, saying that he performed well. Keith also feels dejected, aware that it was him that lagged the tribe behind at the challenge.
Lauren and Wardog discuss the vote, with Wardog opening the idea of voting out Keith instead to keep the tribe strong. Wardog begins his campaign against Keith, much to Kelley's displeasure.
Wardog begins his campaign by telling Kelley and Rick that Wendy was decent in the challenge while Keith was dead weight.
Chris and Rick also discuss voting Keith out. Chris, who has befriended Keith over the past few days, is saddened that his friend is being targeted. Chris gives Keith a hug, saying that he did his best. Keith promises to work on his swimming and swears loyalty to Chris if he gets spared.
At the well, Chris brings the idea of keeping Keith around and voting Kelley out instead. Rick is elated to know there might still be a chance to pull off a blindside on Kelley.
Rick goes to David to tell him that Chris is open to voting Kelley out. David is excited. With Chris and Wendy on their side, the two realize that all they need is Keith's vote.
Rick informs Keith that there is a plan brewing against Kelley and that all they need is Keith's vote.
Chris also tells Wardog about the plan to blindside Kelley, warning him that she will be down to take them out when she no longer needs them. Wardog argues that Kelley is the perfect shield come a Tribe Switch. Chris proposes to Wardog that if they take out Kelley now, he would be willing to vote Keith out next.
Sensing a target is being arranged on her, Kelley tells Chris that she feels nervous heading to Tribal Council.
The Manu arrives at Tribal Council, and Wendy expresses concern that her receiving votes last time is an indication that she could still be in trouble this time. Kelley, who also received a vote, is also uneasy but has expected to be targeted as a returning player. Kelley explains that she is worth keeping because she will always be seen as a bigger threat and is a strong contender in challenges. Lauren supports Kelley and sees her value in the tribe. Keith is put on the hot seat for his dismal challenge performance. Chris views this somewhat differently, saying that loyalty is just as important as physical strength. Rick states that challenge performance outweighs loyalty, unlike the last Tribal Council. In the end, Keith's poor showing in challenges costs him the game, and he is voted out, 6-1-1. On his way out, an upset Keith says he does not believe the tribe will win challenges even with him gone.
Upon leaving Tribal Council, Keith arrives at the same detour Reem went to and is visibly conflicted between a trip home or a trip to the Edge of Extinction. The episode ends with Keith struggling with his decision.

Reward/Immunity Challenge: Serpent TurfTribes must race out into the water and swim over to their respective bamboo cage. Once the entire tribe has arrived, each person must climb up and over the cage wall into the water. They must then retrieve a long and heavy snake and bring it back to shore after crossing a balance beam before setting the snake on a table. The tribes must then retrieve six number tiles from inside the snake, which will be used to solve a number combination lock. Solving the combination lock frees eight rings that three castaways must throw at a series of oars that, when hit, will eventually spell out "IMMUNITY". The first tribe to spell out "IMMUNITY" wins.Reward: Choice between spices, knives, and a cutting board or a fishing kitWinner: ​ (Kama chose the fishing kit)
