==Story==
===Day 21 (Night)===
The final nine return to camp having just witnessed Veronica's elimination from the game, with Delma and Edweena both stunned by the result, having expected a 6-4 vote against Neasa.
Hall and Mayson stand awkwardly, unsure how to address Delma and Edweena after breaking their word at tribal council and voting against Veronica.
The group stand around silently, unsure what can be said to get away from the uncomfortable atmosphere between the members of the new Tambaqui tribe. Delma sits alone, contemplating the events of tribal council and how she will be able to survive the upcoming votes.
===Day 22===
Fredrick, Jenn, Neasa and Sheamus remain inside the shelter, resting whilst others get to work around camp. The foursome talk about their hopes for the upcoming votes being "straight forward", wanting to oust both Delma and Edweena from the game back-to-back.
Edweena and Isaiah sit in the tribes boat together, having volunteered to attempt fishing for a large portion of the day. The two talk openly about the dynamics of the tribe, with Delma likely being the next boot, followed by Edweena herself.
Off by the waters edge, Delma sits with Mayson and Hall, who have begun explaining their actions at the previous tribal council. The duo claim the vote was done to "protect" herself and Edweena, as they successfully moved the target onto Veronica in order to save them.
Hall pleads with Delma to remain civil, asking her to remain on friendly terms despite no longer working together. She tells him she'll have to think about it, unsure whether or not she wants to spend what time she has left around "turncoats". The trio eventually reach Isaiah and Edweena, who have arrived back to the riverbank with several large fish. Hall and Delma help the duo across the narrow logs that the tribe have placed in order to walk from the boat to land without getting their shoes wet. However, as Hall walks over the logs he loses his footing, slipping into the water below whilst colliding against the boat. Hall lets out a large scream, grinding his teeth as he pulls himself out of the water, revealing a large gash to his thigh.
Isaiah helps Hall onto the riverbank, laying him down on the ground as the group inspect his injury. Mayson becomes concerned due to the amount of blood coming from the wound, eventually calling in the medical team to take a look at the injury.
The team have Isaiah and Edweena return to camp, who inform the others of Hall's injury. The group back at camp all seem concerned, not wanting any physical harm to come to anyone whilst they're in the game. The medical team spend some time assessing Hall's wound, assuring him that he hasn't severed any major arteries, and as just undergone a freak accident.
Hall's thigh wound is cleaned up and given a tight bandage, allowing him to be returned to camp along with Mayson and Delma after an hour of absence. The others cheer his return, glad to see that he will remain in the game despite his injury.

The seven going without reward return to camp, sitting around the shelter before deciding to prepare themselves food for the remainder of the day.
Neasa and Edweena begin preparing the fire, wanting to make sure it is well lit by the time those fishing return. Hall lays down in the shelter next to Jenn, complaining that his leg injury ruined his chances of winning the challenge.
Edweena offers to get Hall some water to clean off his wound, telling him that washing off any dried mud would be best for it to heal.
Edweena cleans Hall's leg for him, laughing as he squirms, telling him to "man up" and to stop complaining. Neasa watches from the fire, noting Edweena's actions since she ended up in the minority.
===Reward===
Sheamus and Isaiah arrive at a small open bungalow containing two bath tubs, along with an array of ice creams and a large pitcher of ice tea.
The pair put down their empty bowls, each getting in their own bath tub and relaxing in silence. After thirty minutes, the pair begin talking about their feelings on both the reward and the game.
===Jacaré===
Later that evening, Isaiah and Sheamus return to camp to find the other seven tribe members sat around the fire, eating the fish caught by Mayson, Delma and Fredrick earlier that day. The group seem generally pleased to see the boys return, interested to hear about the reward.
As the group talk, Isaiah picks up some fish and begins eating, much to the horror of several tribe members. Mayson immediately questions Isaiah, claiming it to be unfair that he is eating after going on a food reward.
Jenn and Edweena are both seen suppressing their laughter at Isaiah's insult to Mayson, with their amusement intensifying as Mayson becomes more and more annoyed.
===Day 24===
The final nine receive tree mail informing them of their next individual immunity challenge, giving them each a large tribal mask to decorate in their own image. The group spend an hour on the task, enjoying the chance to explore their creative sides.
===Immunity===
The group arrive at the challenge, where Jeff informs them that they will be undergoing a trivia based challenge on the Amazon and survival. For those that answer correctly, they will be given the chance to chop a section of rope corresponding to another player. Once a contestant loses all three sections of their rope, a large log will be released, smashing their representative mask and placing them out of the challenge. The group laugh at the result, with Delma visibly annoyed to be facing a challenge that almost guarantees she won't be able to win. After the first question, only Delma, Hall and Mayson answer incorrectly, giving the other six the chance to cut a rope.
Edweena goes next, cutting Jenn's first rope. Jenn retaliates this move by cutting Edweena's first rope. Finally, Fredrick cuts Edweena's second rope, leaving her with just one remaining. Neasa, Sheamus, Isaiah, Edweena and Hall answer the second question correctly, leaving them to cut ropes. Neasa decides to cut Mayson's first rope, and is quickly followed by Sheamus and Isaiah, knocking him out of the challenge.
Only Neasa, Edweena and Hall answer correctly for the third round. Neasa cuts Edweena's last remaining rope, with Edweena using her final chop to take out one of Neasa's ropes. Hall decides to copy Edweena, wanting to knock out the person answering the most questions correctly. After the fourth round, Neasa, Jenn, Hall and Fredrick answer correctly. Neasa immediately heads for Hall, cutting the first of his three sections of rope. Jenn copies this move, leaving him with just one rope remaining.
The fifth round sees everyone but Fredrick answer correctly. Sheamus and Isaiah both cut Fredrick's rope, whilst Jenn takes Hall out, who in his last move cuts Isaiah's rope. After the sixth round, Sheamus and Fredrick answer correctly, quickly making a deal not to cut one another. Sheamus jokingly cuts Isaiah's rope, which Fredrick also does, quickly taking him out of the challenge.
Only Sheamus answers correctly in the final two rounds, first knocking out Fredrick, then finally cutting Jenn's last section of rope, handing him individual immunity.
Challenge: Face OffThis challenge will use questions about Amazonian (and Brazilian) culture. Players each have a mask held in place in front of a battering ram. Three chops of the rope and the battering ram smashes the mask, causing its corresponding castaway to be out of the challenge. The last person remaining with his or her mask wins immunity.Winner: Sheamus

===Jacaré===
The group return to camp with just a few hours to go before tribal council. Isaiah and Sheamus depart the camp in order to catch fish, wanting to repay Mayson after the argument that occured the previous evening. Neasa and Jenn follow the boys, wanting to bathe themselves before tribal council.
Back at camp, Delma and Edweena sit in the shelter with Hall, talking about their frustrations over the challenge outcome. Mayson and Fredrick join them, agreeing that the challenge was "unfair" on the older women, guaranteeing that they would be out early.
Some time later, Fredrick joins the group by the river, asking them who they'd be wanting to vote at tribal council. The foursome tell him Delma, feeling it is the safest option for them. However, things are quickly thrown up in the air after Fredrick reveals the plan the others have discussed back at camp.
At tribal council, the group are asked about the fallout that occurred after the previous vote off. Delma and Edweena talk about being shocked by the last result, aiming their anger at Mayson and Hall for the event, feeling as though trust was broken between them that will be difficult to win back. Jeff then asks about the general dynamics of the tribe, with Delma laughing as she refers to the argument between Mayson and Isaiah over "fish and ice cream". Mayson explains his side of the story, but is interrupted by Isaiah, who tells Jeff he will "set the record straight". Jeff is seen laughing as the pair bicker, eventually calling on Sheamus to act as a voice of reason. Sheamus admits to seeing where both sides are coming from, but ultimately feels the concerned parties should "get over it", which Isaiah insists he has. The group then speak about the challenge, particularly the order in which they were eliminated. Edweena mentions that the elimination order exposed who was working together and who is in control, pointing out that herself, Mayson, Delma and Hall were amongst those targeted early. Sheamus denies that the challenge exposes any loyalties, simply calling it "a bit of fun". However, despite Sheamus' claims, Mayson admits to feeling more concerned about his relationship with certain individuals since the challenge, feeling as though it could have been warning signs for what is to come. Mayson's comment causes Sheamus to look over at Neasa, giving her a slight nod before Jeff instructs him to commence the vote. Once the voting is complete, the group look onto Jeff to see which of them will be the first member of the seven person jury.
Edweena smiles, taking her surprise elimination well, having expected to either see Delma leave or a successful blindside on Mayson, having hoped his recent blow ups would spell the end of his game. Delma hugs her friend goodbye, equally as shocked to have made it through yet another vote. Before leaving, Edweena wishes the group luck, exiting in a calm and accepting manner. The final eight head back to camp, with Delma now completely alone for the first time in twenty-four days, truly finding herself as the underdog of the game.
