==Story==
===Day 10===
The David and Goliath tribes meet Jeff Probst, who notices Bi limping and with bandaged right leg. Bi explains that she tore her MCL at the last Immunity Challenge. While her condition is not life-threatening, she fears it would hurt her MMA career. Due to this, Bi chooses to leave the game. The Goliath tribe shows respect to Bi's decision. Jeff notes that the David tribe has suffered one obstacle after another. Bi bids her tribe goodbye and leaves the beach.
With Bi gone, Jeff surprises the survivors with a tribe switch; the David and Goliath tribes will be renamed Vuku and Jabeni respectively, and a third tribe, Tiva, is introduced. With sixteen players and three tribes, the one who opens an empty canister will be sent to and will join the tribe that loses the next Immunity Challenge. Carl's canister does not contain a buff, sending him to exile. Dan is unhappy to be separated from his close ally Kara, with him being on Tiva and her being on Vuku. Christian, a wrestling fan, is excited to know John is on his tribe. Jeff notes that the Goliaths have a 3-2 numbers advantage over the Davids on all three tribes. The new tribes are as follows:
				
				
				
				
With the new tribes in place, the survivors head back to their camps while Carl is given a map to Exile Island. Going to a new beach, the Tiva tribe receives a map from Jeff, who suggests they should begin working on the shelter.
The Vuku tribe arrives at camp, and Alec remarks that the old David camp is better than the old Goliath's with all the chairs and hammocks.
While collecting coconuts, Elizabeth and Kara share life stories. Believing Kara is getting too close with the Davids, Natalia is concerned.
Having the opportunity to be alone with Kara, Natalia confronts her, but Kara assures she is loyal to her. Later, Kara tells Alec of Natalia's worry but confirms a David will be going next.
Carl arrives on Exile Island and ponders on his seclusion.
As Carl goes further in the woods, he is stopped by a note which informs him that a game advantage is hidden somewhere within a bunch of coconuts floating across a rocky shore. Carl rushes to find the advantage while being hit by the strong tides. He eventually finds a coconut sewn shut and pries it open. To his surprise, Carl discovers the Idol Nullifier, which blocks the use of a Hidden Immunity Idol. After reading the note that comes with the Idol Nullifier, Carl finds solace that his exile will not be for naught.
At the Jabeni tribe, Mike assesses his new tribe and deems it to be the worst of the three tribes physically.
As the Jabeni tribe gets to know each other, Natalie is displeased having the Davids around and wants them gone. She breaks the conversation and insists to begin doing chores around camp.
Natalie sits by the fire barking orders at Angelina, Lyrsa, and Nick, to the three's dismay. As Natalie walks off, Nick asks if Natalie has been consistently acting the way she does, in which both Angelina and Mike confirm. Angelina even describes Natalie's recent behavior as "the mellow version." Later at well, Mike tells Nick how Natalie's personality is grating on him. The two feel good about each other and agree to form an alliance whom Nicknames, "The Rockstars." As a show of trust, Mike tells Nick that Dan has the Goliath's Hidden Immunity Idol.
The new Tiva tribe wastes no time making the shelter. Christian is amazed by John using the machete with relative ease. Christian tries to chop the bamboo on his own but is unable to, only to be helped by Dan, who teaches him to swing the machete at an angle. Christian later asks John about his professional wrestling career and jokes he wanted to apply to be the comptroller of Slamtown. Christian's growing closeness with the big, strong guys worries Gabby.
Gabby breaks down to Christian, but Christian comforts and assures her he remains loyal to her and she fits in fine with the tribe.
===Day 11===
The tribes arrive at their next Immunity Challenge. After explaining the mechanics, Jeff reveals they are also playing for reward in the form of milk, coffee, and danishes, but only the first-placing tribe will win them.
Tiva takes an early lead with Gabby calmly leading Dan and John. Jabeni is in a close second with Angelina directing Nick and Natalie. Vuku lags behind with Kara struggling to command Alec and Davie. Gabby takes Tiva's lead further at the maze portion by giving short but specific instructions. Vuku catches up while Jabeni takes last place getting stuck at a corner. Tiva maintains the lead at the balance beam portion with Vuku still behind them. Tiva arrives at the end of the balance beam allowing Gabby to reach the bag with the ball for the table maze. Jabeni continues to tail as Angelina and Natalie have communication problems. Tiva begins to run the table maze with Gabby now instructing Alison and Christian. Vuku closes the gap while Jabeni nearly goes off course. Natalie complains they are losing time, but Angelina reminds her to stay calm. Kara retrieves the ball for Vuku, allowing her to direct Elizabeth and Natalia at the table maze. Jabeni finally reaches the balance beam and gains more ground. Christian and Alison successfully land the ball at the end of the table maze, winning Tiva reward and immunity. Vuku accidentally drops their ball to the gutter, forcing them to start over, allowing Jabeni to close the gap. In a close race for second, Jabeni secures immunity, sending Vuku to Tribal Council.
The Vuku tribe returns to camp, and Kara takes blame for the loss. Natalia cheers Kara up, telling her she did better than what she could have.
With Natalia and Kara away to collect water, Elizabeth invites Davie for an idol search. Without telling Elizabeth he already found the idol, Davie accepts for the fun of it. While digging, Elizabeth discusses voting Natalia out.
Davie follows Natalia and Kara to inform them Elizabeth is voting Natalia. Davie explains he did not do this out of desperation, but to express openness in working with them. Natalia has become determined to vote Elizabeth.
At the beach, Elizabeth tries to persuade Alec that Natalia is a bigger threat, and by turning against the Goliaths, it would help him in his game resume' coming to the Final Tribal Council. This leaves Alex perplexed because it will send a bad message to the Goliaths in the other tribes. Elizabeth, however, is open to throw Davie under the bus to save herself.
Alec goes to Kara and Natalia to tell him Davie told him he is willing to vote Elizabeth out, which convinced him that Davie could be the bigger threat. Natalia is vehement to vote Elizabeth, believing she is just pretending to work them; because she believes Davie can bring Carl to possibly form an alliance with them. Before leaving the conversation, Natalia demands confirmation from Alec and Kara, in which both give, though Alec is becoming frustrated not being listened to.
In the shelter, Natalia also forcefully seeks Davie's support, and if he does not follow, she will describe him as having no future in the game. Alec enters the shelter as well when Natalia tells him to keep mum about the plan. Natalia's bossiness finally strikes a nerve with Alec, venting to Kara that Natalia did not need to bully Davie into voting with her.
In the hammock together, Davie talks to Alec about the idea of blindsiding Natalia. Alec admits that due to Natalia's recent bullish behavior, he considers flipping.
The Vuku tribe enters Tribal Council. Carl follows and takes a seat on the jury bench to watch the proceedings. Natalia confidently states it is one of the Davids who is going home. Elizabeth expresses concern it could be her, she promises her loyalty to the Goliath majority. Davie also pleads his case, saying that Elizabeth has a family and is financially challenged, which could gain sympathy from a jury. Davie also brings up the fact he was left out in the David minority Elizabeth led during the David's first Tribal Council. Natalia blatantly expresses excitement over playing the game and if she goes home, she will have no regrets. Finally fed up by Natalia's bravado, Alec stands up and whispers to Elizabeth, much to Natalia's dislike. Kara assures Natalia that Alec is still in with the plan but Natalia remains uneasy. As the Goliaths continue whispering to each other, Davie remarks he is in the middle of it all and not being talked to.
In the end, Natalia votes Elizabeth as planned, while Kara votes Davie. However, Alec joins Davie and Elizabeth in blindsiding Natalia in a 3-1-1 vote. Alec tries to apologize to a visibly irate Natalia but she dismisses him. As Jeff extinguishes Natalia's torch, Natalia asks if Kara knew about blindsiding her, but Kara firmly denies it. Alec smiles at Natalia, further infuriating her she walks away. Jeff tells Carl to join the Vuku tribe on their way back to camp, where a new Buff is waiting for him.
==Challenges==
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Blind Barrow
One member from each tribe would act as the caller. The caller would sit on a barrow, directing two blindfolded members to push them through a series of obstacles: first a set of speed bumps, then a maze, and finally a balance beam. At the end of the beam, the caller would retrieve a ball, then direct the two other blindfolded members to navigate the ball through a table maze and into a slot. The first two tribes to get their ball into the slot would win.
Reward: The tribe that places first wins pastries, coffee, and iced coffee.
