===Night 13===
After J.T.'s blindside, Aubry struggles to find her standing in the Nuku tribe. She finds that, despite her best efforts to gel with the tribe, it is all for naught. It is clear that Aubry is divided from the rest of the tribe, and she states that she needs to learn from Sandra's tricks if she wanted to continue in the game.
On the Mana tribe, Tai continues his search for his second Hidden Immunity Idol.
He heads to the well, where he predicts the idol will be located. He wets the boards according to the clue, and out of sheer luck manages to find the board with Mana's insignia. He digs fervently below the board and retrieves the idol.
===Day 14===
On Day 14, the tribes switched. Tavua was abolished, spreading the fourteen remaining survivors to the two original tribes, Mana and Nuku.
						
						
						
Debbie drew a package containing no buff. As a result, she was sent to exile.

==Challenges==
Immunity Challenge: Cargo Salvage
The contestants had to dive in and climb onto a platform. They must then cross a monkey-bar by treading over a rope. They will then lift heavy puzzle pieces into a sled situated on a platform. Once all the puzzle pieces have been collected, the tribes must drag their sleds down the platform, up a hill (with the help of logs), and onto the finish. Three members of each tribe will then solve a barrel puzzle. The first tribe to complete their puzzle wins.
