===Day 19===
The main Aitutaki alliance of Candice, Jonathan, Sundra, Becky, and Yul were content to keep outsider Ozzy around until a potential merge because of his providing abilities. However, Candice formed a sub-alliance with Jonathan, and both planned to flip and reunite with the other original Rarotonga members, Adam and Parvati. Despite that, Candice actually didn't trust him enough and still wanted to get him out.
At Rarotonga, the issue was trust was discussed, with Nate confessing that he didn't trust Brad.
===Day 20===
On Day 20, Candice and Jonathan chose to from Aitutaki to back to their original tribe, Rarotonga.
							
							
The diminished Aitutaki dominated the Reward Challenge and won a brunch and letters from home, sending Candice to for her betrayal. Sundra rejoiced over the David-beating-Goliath-esque victory. She and the rest of her tribe then became very emotional over their letters and pictures from home.
At Exile Island, Candice lamented the fact that Jonathan was able to bond with their new Rarotonga tribemates while she wasn't.
At Rarotonga, Jonathan explained to the rest of the tribe his allegiance with Candice. His arrival was not exactly welcome to Nate, who wanted to vote him out first.
===Day 21===
Aitutaki came from behind and beat Rarotonga in the Immunity Challenge. Candice told Parvati that she didn't have a strong bond with Jonathan. Nate wanted Jonathan out, but Adam pointed out to him that Brad would likely flip back to the original Puka Puka members, Becky and Yul, on Aitutaki. Nate did his best "Denzel" to keep Brad in the dark on his new plans. Candice also informed Adam of Jonathan's plans to weaken him, angering him. But he and Nate said they would remain strong and eliminate Brad.
At Tribal Council, Brad revealed that he didn't trust the tribe as a whole. This only added to the tribe's motivation to get him out, which they did, 7-1.
