On Day 20, the Zechawa tribe would merge with the Shuzheng even with 5 members. With Shuzheng targeting Kat and Zechawa targeting Evie , it was Qing, feeling at the bottom of Shuzheng who switched her vote . Evie would be the seventh voted out by a 6-4 vote.

Day 27, Kat & Krystal join forces with Cedric & Rich to turn the table on Kyle and he joins the jury after a 4-3-1 vote.

Day 12, has a minor disagreement with Ajay Mehra and forms a 5-person alliance with Ajay, Arlette, Clara Wesson and Neda Jaksic. The alliance decides to split the vote between Frankie Jimenez and Mike Merryman, fearing one of them has the Hidden Immunity Idol, but they don't realize that Ajay is playing a double agent to vote out Arlette. Ajay's plan works, however, it was a *Mock Tribal Council* and Arlette is voted to Kagaba instead. Day 14, the *Villains* work together to vote out a new *Winner* tribemate and they choose Madeleine Allakariallak.

Day 21, bonds strongly with Neda and forms a new 6-person alliance with Ajay, Charlotte Murray, Frankie, Harrison Davison and Kyle Rodriguez. Day 23, Kat leaves the 6-person alliance and sets her sights on voting out Kyle, however, the scorned alliance sets sights on Kat. At Tribal Council, Mike shocks the tribe and uses his Hidden Immunity Idol on Kat, negating 5 votes against her. The *Villains* (sans Frankie) would blindside Kyle. This marks the first time in *Survivor CAN* history where a Hidden Immunity Idol was played, it would be effective and used for someone else.

Day 27, bonds slightly with Neda Jaksic. Ajay convinces his alliance (Kat & Neda) that Charlotte has overstayed her welcome, they vote for her, but they end up in the minority and Ajay is voted out 5-3. Day 31, finds something in common with Harrison, which leads to them working together to vote out Frankie Jimenez. Day 33, finds something in common with Carmeno Atwood which offers her and Neda a lifeline and the two of them team up with the *Heroes* to vote out the strongest *Winner*, Jonathan Cheechoo.

Day 35, Kat and Neda flip on Harry to join a new majority, however, Harry plays a Hidden Immunity Idol to negate all 6 votes cast against him and they vote out another *Winner*, Huma Mansour. Day 37, after drawing a line against Harry in the last vote, Kat and Neda take another shot and this time are successful in voting him out, after a revote. Day 39, Neda feels it needs to be Wab Kinew next and Kat agrees, they reel in Carmeno & Charlotte Murray and Harrison Davison & Mike Merryman. At Tribal Council, Mike would betray his own ally and vote for Harrison, but Neda secured enough votes to send Wab to jury, 5-4-1.

Day 43, Kat & Neda agree to vote out Mike, but Kat likes Mike and ends up voting for Madeeha Rattani, which ends in a 3-3-2 tie-vote between Madeeha and Mike. In the revote, Kat changes to Mike and he's sent packing 5-1. Day 45, hearing Kat is being targeted, Neda and Kat are speaking to Selma Alho, when she gives them a lifeline as she wants to see a threat go home, specifically Harrison. They agree to vote for Selma's target and reel in Charlotte, who wants Selma gone, but doesn't like how her alliance didn't listen. At Tribal Council, Kat & Neda's methodical gameplay worked to perfection and Harrison was sent home, 4-3. Day 47, sent to Exile Island, along with Charlotte & Neda Jaksic.

Day 49, Neda plays the *Hidden Immunity Idol* on Kat, to save a number for her, and negates 3 votes cast against her. This is the second time Kat has been saved by another castaway. Neda & Kat send Barth to Jury. Day 51, Kat & Neda sway Selma to join them in voting out Charlotte Murray. At Tribal Council, Charlotte shocks everyone when she plays a Hidden Immunity Idol to negate 3 votes and send Kat to the jury, 2-0.

At Final Tribal Council, Kat would return the favour for using the Hidden Immunity Idol on her and for her unwavering support, casting her vote for Neda Jaksic to win.
