==Story==
===Night 6===
Returning from Tribal Council, the Heroes attempt to mend the large divisions that have sprung up within the tribe. James Clement is frustrated that the Heroes keep losing, saying that all he wants is for the Heroes to win. Tom Westman agrees, but tells James he could have gone about things in a nicer way.
J.T. Thomas apologizes to Tom for the earlier deal that he had made that he went back on. Tom feels if J.T. is actually genuinely sorry about it that he might be able to use J.T. and buy himself some time in the game. Later, Tom and Colby Donaldson talk about their own tenuous position in the tribe, with Colby questioning whether he even wants to play the game anymore.
That night in the Villains shelter, Russell Hantz and Parvati Shallow flirt as Rob Mariano makes some observations about the sleeping arrangements.
 
===Day 7===
The next morning, the Heroes tribe's division continues to cause problems. Rupert Boneham laments that the tribe has grown so divided and weakened as a result.
However, the Heroes once again find chickens near their camp and finally work together to bring them down, which allows for a little more tribal unity to come forward.
Chickens are also in abundance at the Villains camp, where the Villains have set traps out for them. Near one trap, Coach Wade talks to Russell about the importance of the Villains' first vote, warning Russell that his relationship with Parvati could jeopardize his own game since people will be looking for any excuse at all for the first vote. Coach also attempts to warn Russell about Parvati being a very dangerous social and strategic player who could manipulate him into ruin.
Rob walks up and joins in the conversation, also giving a warning to Russell about Parvati, claiming that aligning with her is dangerous since she has many friends on the Heroes tribe. Rob threatens Russell to be careful about how he's playing the game or otherwise he might find himself in big trouble. Coach says that Russell's relationship with Parvati is ostracizing him from the tribe, and Russell hesitantly agrees with the two men to be careful, but in reality he is just lying to them and has no intentions to back down from his alliance.
Russell then goes to talk with Parvati on the beach and forwards his conversation with Coach and Rob to Parvati. Parvati and Russell are frustrated with Coach and the rest of the tribe for targeting Parvati right off the bat.
That night, Coach is telling stories in the Villains shelter as the tribe lays down for sleep. While the tribe is distracted, Russell silently walks off with the machete and buries it in an attempt to sabotage the tribe and cause chaos.
===Day 8===
Randy Bailey goes out into the ocean and finds a very large clam for food which he tries to share with the tribe to no avail, as no one is interested. After opening the clam up, only Sandra Diaz-Twine and Parvati will try the clam, but Parvati spits it up, not liking the taste, leaving Randy and Sandra to help themselves to the rest of the meat.
Coach and Randy later talk while gathering logs out in the jungle about being frustrated with the weak players who sit around the shelter and do nothing. Randy suggests to vote them out, and Coach agrees. Coach is frustrated that this situation is occurring, feeling it to be unjust that some people in the tribe sit around and do nothing all day.
Candice Woodcock talks with J.T. on the Heroes tribe about making an alliance together and she talks strategy with him, which spooks J.T., who didn't feel like Candice was as strategic as she reveals to him. One of the things that Candice mentions to J.T. is making sure Cirie Fields is comfortable within the alliance.
Later, J.T. talks with Cirie and Amanda Kimmel in the shelter and throws Candice under the bus by saying bad things about Candice, and he also turns what Candice said to him about Cirie around by telling them that Candice doesn't trust Cirie, her supposed partner in the game. Cirie and Amanda are surprised, but believe J.T.'s lie.
After the conversation with J.T., Cirie goes up and tells Candice that she is nervous about the status of their alliance. This irritates Candice who tries to make it clear that she never said what Cirie has heard she said. Candice suspects foul play, and that somebody is trying to sabotage her, so she talks with many of the people around camp whether or not they were the one to start the rumor.
Both tribes arrive at the next combined Reward/Immunity Challenge, where the Villains are surprised to find out that Stephenie LaGrossa was voted out. In the sumo style challenge, the Heroes physically dominate the Villains. During the challenge James consistently trash talks the Villains. After going up 7-0, the final heat is James, the most physically strong contestant, versus Randy, the oldest contestant. James easily defeats Randy in one attack, and then throws his sumo bag at Randy as he lies in the mud. Randy sarcastically remarks how classy James is behaving, and in response James curses at Randy. After that exchange, Courtney Yates tells James that he is on the wrong team, and not a hero. With the Heroes easily defeating the Villains, the Villains must go to Tribal Council for the first time.
The defeated Villains return to camp and go out to the water to clean off the mud from the challenge and reflect on their performance. Tyson sensed an imminent immunity challenge defeat for the Villains, especially after seeing all the Heroes fired up at the immunity challenge.
Parvati confronts Coach in the water about whether he plans to vote for her, but Coach tries to evade the question and claims that he hasn't made his mind up. Coach resists her attempts to get information from him. Parvati gives a speech to him about how she is not the weakest and doesn't want to be the first one voted out of the tribe.
Tyson Apostol, Rob, Jerri Manthey, Courtney, and Sandra discuss what to do on the beach. Tyson attempts to tell Rob that Parvati is more dangerous because of her connections to members of the Heroes tribe, and that Randy is not dangerous because he has no connections. Rob and Sandra disagree and think that Randy is the weakest member of the tribe and should be eliminated because of it. However, Jerri agrees with Tyson and feels strongly that Parvati should be the one to go since Jerri has a personal dislike of Parvati.
Sandra and Coach talk later in the jungle about how things should go at Tribal Council, Sandra says that as long as she isn't in trouble, she doesn't care who gets out.
Jerri, Danielle DiLorenzo, Coach, and Parvati talk around the shelter about voting Randy. Jerri admits she doesn't want to vote for him, but when Parvati presses her for who should be voted out instead, Jerri refuses to say, since she wants Parvati gone.
Randy has a conversation with Coach in the water about the fact that the Heroes sent Stephenie home. Randy says that was a clear sign that Parvati's friends are running things over on the Heroes, and that Parvati should go because of it. If not, Randy says he will be seeing all the guys at loser's lodge as Parvati and her crew will take control of the game.
At the first Villains Tribal Council, the tribe talks about the pre-existing relationships on the tribe and between the tribes, mainly referencing Parvati. The tribe's work ethic is also discussed, and Sandra attacks Coach at Tribal Council about how he delegates responsibilities to others but does not work himself. Coach strongly disagrees and claims that he is in fact a hard worker and says that the other people around camp are the ones not working. The loss of the machete is also discussed, with many of the Villains believing that Randy is responsible, which Russell laughs at quietly. Rob says that the lack of cohesiveness on the tribe will not be solved by the vote and they will remain at odds with each other, but Rob says that the Villains know what to do when the challenges come around so everyone can work together to be safe. When the votes are read, it is Randy who is unanimously voted out in a 9-1 decision. As Randy stands up to gather his torch, he burns his buff in the fire as a sign of defiance.
