==Story==
===Day 19===
At La Flor, with his closest ally Jill gone, and his Hidden Immunity Idol in Sash's possession, Marty was left alone to defend himself. 
Meanwhile, Fabio came back from Tree Mail with a key. The mail instructed them to pack up and migrate to Espada's camp, signaling a merge. The merge seemed to give Marty some newly-found vigor. Marty knew that the original La Flor had a 8-4 super-majority over the original Espada and had some hope. 
On the other hand, the Espada tribe received a treasure chest with a note. The note stated: 
After reading the note, Espada prepared as their rival tribe arrives at their encampment. While preparing, Benry thought that it was everybody's interest that Alina should be next to go. 
Upon returning to camp, Alina told her tribe mates about her new strategy. 
She recommended that Marty must go next because of his possession of a Hidden Immunity Idol and his perceived leadership at La Flor. Despite Espada somewhat supported Alina's plan, NaOnka revealed the truth. 
As La Flor approached Espada's camp, they realized that Jill was the latest evicted castaway. Alina was surprised by this revelation. 
As the chest opened, a new tribe flag, twelve new red buffs and some food were revealed, confirming the assumptions of a merge. While discussing the new tribe's name, Marty suggested to name the newly formed tribe, "Libertad" (Spanish for "Liberty" or "Freedom") to conform with the two former tribes, which are also named in the Spanish language. Everybody agreed, thus the new Libertad tribe partied over their merge feast. Brenda expressed her happiness after reuniting with NaOnka. 
While catching up on things, Brenda shared about Jane's trustworthiness and Sash' bold plan to effectively steal Marty's Idol away from him. NaOnka warned her ally about Alina targeting her. She then suggested that either Alina or Marty would go home next.
===Days 20-21===
While not being tribemates before, Chase and Jane felt a connection. Being both from North Carolina, they bonded easily. 
Jane then shared stories with Chase about her days at the original "older" Espada, stating that she was disrespected back then for being a redneck. 
Both of them shared another thing in common. Not only did they live in the same state, both Chase and Jane lost someone close to them recently, with Chase his dad and Jane with her husband.
Later, NaOnka was making tortillas for everyone. Fabio grabbed the biggest one to take a bite. With this NaOnka became frustrated. 
Out on a vengeance, NaOnka took the canister of flour. Holly caught her red-handed. 
In the middle of the jungle, NaOnka buried the flour canister. 
NaOnka returned to camp to find it empty, since her tribe is out by the ocean. She then decided to steal more food and supplies. As she ate a stolen apple, she said, 
Sitting along the beach, Alina asked NaOnka if she's still in the Espada Six alliance or she already returned with Brenda's alliance. NaOnka assured Alina that she is still loyal to the alliance, but told her that the tribe is targeting Alina. A fuming Alina vented, 
NaOnka then offered Alina one of the stolen oranges to calm her nerves. Alina happily took the orange but can't believe NaOnka stole them. NaOnka then encouraged Alina to win the next Immunity Challenge to stay in the game. 
After taking a bath at the beach, the rest of the tribe realized that items are gone missing. Holly asked NaOnka if she returned the flour in the chest after making tortillas. NaOnka insisted she did. Holly then tells the tribe that she saw NaOnka put the flour in her bag. Everyone was shocked and Fabio interrogated NaOnka about why she did it. NaOnka swore she put it back and storms out of camp. Meanwhile, seeing the tension, Alina felt very guilty, because she was the only one who knew NaOnka's misdeed. 
Alina and Chase approached NaOnka to encourage her to confess. 
NaOnka felt worried that her lying might put her in trouble. Chase then reminded NaOnka, 
NaOnka then admitted her faults to the tribe. She assured them that she was not trying to starve everyone but just trying to conserve the food. Marty had his doubts NaOnka 
In her confession, NaOnka admitted that Alina was with her when she took the items, but it was not Alina's intention to steal them. Fabio then thanked NaOnka for being truthful. Marty felt appalled by NaOnka's doing. 
===Day 22===
Brenda admitted that NaOnka was crazy to steal food, but she was more keen on Alina being part of it. 
Sash, Chase, Jane and Brenda discussed about what going to happen to NaOnka. They decided to protect her from vote, though they will have to temporarily distance from her. 
Sash approached NaOnka and assured her 
and encouraged her to act regretful of what she did.
After a fishing expedition, Jane brought her fifth catch of the day into camp. The girls were delighted of Jane and asked to help her in cleaning and cooking the fish. Meanwhile, Marty, Benry, and Fabio laughed at Jane behind her back. 
Marty saw how game-threatening Jane was, telling that her appeal might "spread like cancerous tentacles through the tribe." Marty went to Brenda and warned her about Jane making it to the end and might win easily. 
Later, Libertad arrives at their first challenge as a tribe. After explaining the mechanics of the challenge. host Jeff Probst revealed that two people will be saved from the vote at Tribal Council, a man and a woman.
Purple Kelly and Dan were both immediately eliminated after mere three seconds. A furious Alina was next. Brenda, Benry, Sash, and NaOnka soon followed. Holly and Jane are now the only two women standing, while Marty, Fabio, and Chase remain for the men. Holly is out next, thus winning individual immunity for Jane. Jane asked Jeff if she can stay longer in the challenge and try and beat the men. Jeff answered, "Go for it." Marty was eliminated next, leaving Chase and Fabio in the running. In the end, Fabio holds on longer and wins immunity. Only after Fabio gave his grip did Jane give up hers.
Upon returning to camp, the girls huddled to congratulate Jane. Jane told them that she wanted Marty out. Alina someone aside from her wanted to take Marty of the competition. 
As Jane campaigned to vote for Marty, Sash asked for a favor to his alliance. Sash had promised Marty that he would give him the Idol back before the next Tribal Council, if there was a chance that he would be voted out. Sash does not want to go back on his word, so he asked to keep Marty at the next Tribal Council. Meanwhile, Dan told Marty that Chase said that they might blindside Marty tonight. An upset Marty immediately questioned Sash. Brenda and Sash assured Marty that Alina was their target. Marty became more frantic as the vote approaches, and as a result, he kept grilling Sash about their real plan, irritating Sash. 
Marty went to Holly to find out who she is voting for. She assured him she is voting for Alina tonight. Alina later approached Jane and Holly in hopes of getting them to vote for Marty without Sash and Brenda's help. Alina then pled to an undecided Fabio. 
At Tribal Council, Marty attacked Jane her dangerous popularity within the tribe. 
Jane was shocked by Marty throwing her under the bus and tried to remain patient. Marty ended by confessing that he will vote for Jane if she makes it to the finals, because she is indeed deserving. Alina pointed out that Marty himself is a huge threat as well since he just revealed what a strategic player he is. Dan then rebutted by reminding the tribe that NaOnka and Alina stole the tribe's food. Ultimately, with no allies supporting her, Alina Wilson was sent to the jury in a 10-2 vote.
