At exile, Danielle expresses her disappointment of not being to be with her mom. She chops a coconut with the machete, pretending its Terry's head.

HB expresses how proud of he is of Cirie. As HB leaves, Cirie states that she is doing this not for herself, but for her family.

Another boat with Shane and Terry both return from the reward. Aras asks them about the reward. At the fire pit, Terry explains to Aras for delegation of the loved ones. Aras didn't like how Terry said it because Danielle was 24 and it was just her mom. Terry tries to justify this by saying once you marry, you have no choice but to pick your spouse. This did not go over well with Aras, who felt Terry was saying his rock (Trish) was more important that Aras' rock (his mom). The men continue to talk about the issue, with both of them making confessionals about the conversation.

Shane, Aras, Terry, and Cirie arrive for the challenge. Danielle returns from Exile Island. When asked about her experience, Danielle said it was more pleasant due to better weather. Jeff explains how the challenge works. Everyone was relatively even, except for Shane who didn't get water in his bucket. However, Terry had a slight lead and eventually won the challenge. Terry celebrates his victory, which prompts Shane to tell him to "shaddap". Everyone dove off the platform except Cirie. Shane mimics Probst's usual line and adds "dun dun dun".

Back a camp, Everyone makes a confessional about he is guaranteed a spot in the final three. Terry and Shane talk about Danielle, who is alone. Shane says she is going next. In a confessional, Shane talks about his safety due to his alliance. Terry offers Shane a final two pact. Terry did this because he believe he could win easily against Shane. Aras and Danielle talk about Shane. Aras states in a confessional that he has no loyalty to Shane anymore because the latter wanted to take Courtney to the final two. Aras then talks to Cirie about voting out Shane. Aras talks in a confessional. Danielle talks about how Shane and Terry are gunning for her and her bonds with Aras and especially Cirie. Shane talks to Cirie about voting out Danielle then followed by Aras. Cirie talks about how the vote is going to happen and states that she thinks that Danielle could be her. Shane makes another confessional about his comfortability in his alliance. Shane congratulates Aras for making to the final four.

At Tribal Council, Terry was asked about his allocating the loved ones. Cirie and Shane were asked about their experiencing with their loved ones. Aras is asked about Terry's winning streak. He said that you can win as many challenges you want, you have to win people over. When the questioning was complete, it was time to vote. Aras votes against Shane. Shane votes against Danielle. When the votes came, the first vote was Danielle. The next votes were for Shane, who made various expressions when he saw votes with his name on them. Shane's jaw dropped when he was voted out. Before his torch was snuffed, Shane declared he was one minute from having an Ice Cream bar.

Voting Confessionals

Danielle did not say anything when she voted.

“	(voting for Shane) Shane, sorry, brother. You backstabbed me, dude, and I found out. Maybe we'll get a coke afterwards.	”
—Aras

“	(voting for Danielle) Okay, now I meant this week. I'm sorry. This week. You don't have to fight over food anymore.	”
—Shane

“	(voting for Aras) How many times do I have to say this? You're still the number one threat.	”
—Terry

“	(voting for Shane) Um, you said, at some point, you had to start protecting yourself, and this becomes an individual game. This is nothing personal; um, hopefully, you don't take it personal. My door is always open. I'm gonna leave the ball in your field - I mean, the ball in your court. Love you, sorry.	”
—Cirie

Final Words

“	Ah, I got duped. I was blindsided. I really thought me, Aras and Cirie were locked in. This will be the toughest thing I ever do in my life. I just want to tell you BoBo that I love you so much. I am sorry. I tried my hardest. Daddy is proud of himself although I am disappointed.	”
—Shane Powers

Trivia

• After Shane's elimination, Terry was the only remaining member of the original La Mina tribe. In a rather interesting coincidence, after Shane was voted out, all four starting tribes were represented in the Final Four. Aras represented Viveros, Danielle was from Bayoneta, Cirie was from the original Casaya, and Terry was from the original La Mina.
  • Interestingly, the Final Four would all eventually compete again in future seasons.
