==Story==
===Day 6 (Night)===
The women return to camp having just experienced their first tribal council, where despite the unanimous vote, the group remains divided between two groups based off age. The atmosphere remains awkward around the camp, with most of the women quietly getting in the shelter to avoid post-tribal discussions.
Delma and Veronica tend to the fire, quietly discussing their thoughts. Delma claims to be aware that the younger women were trying to turn the vote on them, warning Veronica that they need to know "when to lose" in order to remove the "cancer" from their group. 
===Day 7===
===Jaburu===
Neasa, Jayla and Subira sit in the shelter discussing their lives back home, in particular their family members they miss. Jayla spends time talking about her son Charlie, discussing her struggles as a single mother. Neasa opens up about her own experiences, telling both girls that she had become pregnant at the age of 16, and how the event caused her to become estranged from her Catholic family.
Both women begin comforting Neasa, who has become particularly emotional whilst trying to tell her story. She eventually clears her throat, and explains that she lost the child during pregnancy, with the experience being the main driving force behind her move from Ireland to the United States. Both Subira and Jayla show their sympathy, with the trio reduced to tears over the story.
Edweena and Jenn sit in the tribes boat together, attempting to fish after several unsuccessful attempts. Jenn complains that the lack of bait will make the fishing harder, and continues to complain about fruitlessly trying when they should instead "look into other ways to get food". 
Back on land, Veronica and Delma spend their time collecting firewood, giving them a chance to talk strategy away from camp. 
===Tambaqui===
The men continue mending and refurbishing their camp in order to keep it comfortable, with most of the men feeling as though their tribe has grown stronger over the past few days.
Mayson and Isaiah stand chopping up firewood, whilst Kennedy and Fredrick sleep inside the shelter. Isaiah mocks Fredrick's snoring, jokingly referring to him as "sleeping beauty", much to Mayson's amusement.
Ceri and Hall sit preparing some fish for the tribe, overhearing Isaiah and Mayso as they speak. Ceri is seen rolling his eyes, becoming more infuriated with his tribe as each day goes on.
Ceri begins to talk with Hall quietly, making sure those around them can't overhear the conversation.
Later that evening, the men sit around the fire talking about controversial subjects, much to the disappointment of certain members. Mayson becomes particularly worried when the group gets on to politics, not wanting to draw attention onto subjects that could create divisions in the group.
 
===Day 8===
Challenge: Matchmaker
Each castaway will have a basket containing five items. The castaways must try to match one of their items with another castaway.

===Jaburu===
The seven women return to camp with their toiletries in hand, excited to finally be able to clean themselves up after a week without luxuries.
Jenn gestures for Neasa and Subira to follow her, with the younger trio heading down to the shallow water in order to clean themselves. The remaining four tribe members stand around looking at one another. 
Jayla and Edweena grab some of the newly won cleaning products, heading off to their own area of shallow water in order to freshen up. Veronica assures them that she and Delma will come and join them, but keeps Delma behind in order to talk over her abrasiveness. Delma apologises to Veronica, but tells her that they need to be forceful or else they could lose Jayla to "those closer to her age". 
The three younger women bathe in the shallow water, washing eight days of dirt off one another. The women compliment one another, enjoying the freedom away from the other members of the tribe. The girls discuss their plans for moving forward, agreeing that they should continue bonding with Jayla so that she will join their group. Neasa admits she is uncertain that the three of them leaving alone would be good for their goal, as it has left Jayla with the other women. Jenn tells her not to worry, feeling that leaving Jayla with the older women will just further expose how "annoying" they are to be around.
===Tambaqui===
The men return to camp after losing the more relaxed reward challenge, all seeming in good spirits despite the loss. 
Sheamus, Mayson and Ceri head off towards the river in order to fish, leaving the others by the shelter. Isaiah teases Fredrick that they would have been better off winning the bathing products just to get away his "stank".
Whilst fishing, Ceri talks about his nerves for the upcoming immunity challenge, pointing out that they are currently on par with the women when it comes to challenge success. Mayson talks about not feeling worried, as "all three" of them will be safe should they lose. Sheamus agrees, claiming once again that the only person who should be worried is Kennedy due to being the weakest player. Ceri talks about his position in the tribe, admitting that he hopes they will allow him to stick around and continue proving his worth.
 
===Day 9===
The remaining fourteen contestants head towards the challenge area, with Kennedy feeling the most vulnerable on Tambaqui, and Delma knowing she is at risk on Jaburu.
Challenge: The Great Escape
Each tribe will be locked inside a prison-like cage. In order to escape, the tribe members must untie a series of ropes in order to release a machete. Then the tribes must use their machete to cut through a rope, then they must undo another series of knots in order to release a plank, which will in turn release a pole. They must use the pole to retrieve a set of keys on the outside of the cage. Once the keys are collected, they must unlock their chains and release their escape hatch. The first tribe to do so wins.
Information: For Tambaqui, Kennedy performs badly, costing his tribe time. However, Hall, Ceri and Sheamus take charge and lead the group through the challenge. For Jaburu, Jenn performs equally as poorly, becoming easily flustered. Despite Subira, Delma and Jayla performing well, the girls are unable to catch the boys, losing the challenge by a matter of seconds.

===Jaburu===
The women return to camp, demoralised from their second immunity loss in a row. Jayla looks flustered, knowing she will now be forced to make a decision between the two warring sides of Jaburu, costing her relationships with the two that remain on the losing side.
The women spend some time preparing their things for that evening, patiently waiting for Jayla to be ready to listen to both sides' pitches. Jayla spends her time talking about irrelevant topics, which the women try and involve themselves with, whilst all feeling somewhat frustrated at her hesitance to speak game.
Delma and Edweena sit by the fire together, making sure to leave Veronica with Jayla so that the younger women don't have an ample opportunity to strategize with her. The pair discuss which of the younger women to target. They quickly agree that Subira is the strongest of the three, and that Jenn is the weakest, leading Delma to push for the elimination of the latter. 
After some time, Jayla agrees she's ready to speak with either side. In order to allow things to move smoothly, Jayla goes to each trio at separate times, speaking privately about their plans for the upcoming vote. Firstly, Jayla speaks with the younger trio, who assure Jayla that she fits in better with their group, and that the tribe would be more cohesive should Delma be voted out of the game.
Moments later, Jayla goes for her talk with the older trio, who immediately ask her who of the three younger women she would prefer to target. Jayla hesitates, before eventually stating that she feels less of a connection with Jenn and Subira, and finds Subira to be the least genuine of the three. Delma hints to Jayla that she is concerned about Jenn's challenge performances, particularly as the tribe will need to soon start winning to have a shot at merging with equal numbers. 
Jayla thanks Delma for her honesty, telling the women she will need some further time to think, admitting that she feels close to having made up her decision. The women gather their things, with both side having no indication whether Jayla will be joining them at the most crucial vote for the Jaburu tribe thus far.
At tribal council the women discuss the improvement of camp life since their last visit, but admit that the group is still very much split between two sides, with Jayla in the middle. Jayla talks about both sides pitching for her vote, feeling as though her game will either be made or ended with her critical vote. Jeff gives both sides an opportunity to make an argument for why Jayla should pick them over their opposition. Edweena does most of the talking for the older women, stating that Jayla has been "one of us" since the start, pointing out that the younger women didn't consider Jayla worthy of conversation until they realised her vote was needed. Jayla somewhat supports Edweena's argument, claiming that she hasn't bonded with the younger women as frequently, and they only began speaking to her about the game after Karyn was eliminated. Neasa claims this to be untrue, and simply due to the younger women not wanting to impose strategy when it wasn't needed, evoking laughter from Delma, who points out the failed switch-up at the previous tribal council. After more arguments have been made, Jayla informs Jeff that she has made a decision, hoping it to be one that'll strengthen both the tribe and her own game. Once the voting is complete, the women eagerly await the reveal, knowing that one of their games is about to be ended, and the two alongside that person forced into a minority position.
Subira laughs and shakes her head, blindsided at both losing Jayla to the older women, and being their target over the physically weaker Jenn. Delma is seen to be particularly relieved, rubbing Jayla's shoulder in thanks. Subira refuses to acknowledge the older women and Jayla, instead wishing her two friends luck before departing the tribal council area. The remaining six women return to camp, with both Neasa and Jenn knowing they are now the minority in the Jaburu camp.
