Story

Night 13

At Ta Keo, a boat pulls up to the shore with Jeff Probst on board. He wakes up Terry Deitz and tells him that he got a phone call from Terry's wife that his son, Danny, is in the hospital, and his condition is serious enough that he needs to go home. Jeff says he knows it's a shock and he wouldn't be here if it wasn't serious. Terry goes to grab his bag so he can leave with Jeff. He tells his tribe that his son is in the hospital and he has to go home.

Everyone hugs him goodbye, while Kass McQuillen states that she can't imagine how it must feel to get a call that something has happened to your child. She explains that it's a reminder of how quickly things can change. Keith Nale remarks they need to win this for Terry now as he leaves with Jeff for good, becoming the sixth person eliminated from Survivor: Cambodia.

Day 14

When the tribes convene for the challenge, Jeff announces that Terry is gone, stating that he had a family emergency and one of his kids is sick.

Everybody is shocked and emotional at the news, as Andrew Savage claims he would have run to the airport. Although they all love the game, he believes that family is bigger than that. The parents among the castaways agree that they would all do what Terry did and are all upset that this happened to him, including Kelly Wiglesworth who said she would swim home. Ciera Eastin, a young mom, says she told her husband that if something happened, she would go home, too. Joe Anglim says that while it took the wind out of their sails a bit, they are going to continue to work hard. Jeff then reveals to them that another tribe swap will commence.

Andrew is excited, as they will be back down to two tribes with Angkor being dissolved. They open their buffs and have to reorganize. Woo Hwang, Andrew, and Abi-Maria Gomes are together with Kass, Spencer Bledsoe, and Ciera. Kass is hesitant about being in a tribe with Spencer, who refers to her as his nemesis. Kelley Wentworth is the only original Ta Keo on the new Bayon tribe, worrying her. Stephen Fishbach, who was also put on Bayon, states that there are many alphas on his new tribe, those being Jeremy Collins, Joe, Tasha Fox, and others. The new tribes are as follows:

Jeremy Bayon	Joe Bayon	Keith Bayon	Kelley Bayon	Kimmi Bayon	Stephen Bayon	Tasha Bayon
Abi-Maria Ta Keo	Andrew Ta Keo	Ciera Ta Keo	Kass Ta Keo	Kelly Ta Keo	Spencer Ta Keo	Woo Ta Keo

For the Reward Challenge, one member from each tribe does a huge slip and slide, grabs a ring then tosses it onto a post. The first tribe to get to three wins. The winning tribe gets a picnic with fried chicken, mac and cheese, potato chips and brownies delivered to their camp. In a close 3-2 victory, the new Ta Keo prevailed over the new Bayon, winning the reward and sending their rivals back to camp empty-handed.

Day 15

Back at Ta Keo, the tribe settles in with their new teammates and sits down for their picnic reward. Spencer asks Kass how it was at Ta Keo, and she replies that the four of them were low drama non-schemers. Andrew is relieved that they're out of the hell hole that was Angkor, and they all toast with their fried chicken. While Andrew thinks Spencer has a great heart, he knows Kass can't stand Spencer and plans to leverage this in his favor.

Over at Bayon, the tribe is bickering. Keith gets on to Kimmi Kappenberg about the fire and Joe and Kelley talk about the work ahead, saying they need to try and find a way to keep her here. He wants Kelley as a number for the impending merge, and would rather have Stephen and Kimmi go before her. Joe talks to Tasha and Stephen about Kimmi and how she's not great at the challenges, while Stephen questions why they would break up the original Bayon. He runs to Jeremy and informs him that Joe is plotting against Kimmi. Although he's eager to go after Joe, Jeremy states that he doesn't want Joe to go first, secretly wanting to keep him around as a shield. He tells Stephen he's bugging and to calm down. Despite this, he then goes to Tasha and tries to turn her towards targeting Joe anyways. Stephen gets emotional in a confessional, remembering that he put so much into the game last time, only to come up short. He regrets not taking out the "golden boy" when he had the chance to last time and is afraid of wasting his second chance by making that same mistake again. Stephen is convinced getting Joe out is the big move of the season.

The Immunity Challenge is a food eating competition, a Survivor classic, with local delicacies from Cambodia. In yet another close challenge, Tasha beats Kass to win Bayon immunity 4-3, meaning Ta Keo will go to Tribal Council. Kass is extremely disappointed that she let the tribe down and starts to cry as a result.

Ta Keo heads back upset that they have to go to Tribal Council, but Woo says they will all just vote for Spencer unless the plan changes. Andrew tells Woo not to be seen talking to Ciera so Spencer doesn't get a heads up, as he told him Ciera is the target. While he says he feels bad about voting for Spencer, he won't let anything ruin his second chance, and believes that this will be a huge blindside.

Ciera tells Kass and Abi-Maria that she doesn't think her name should be the one to get thrown around now that Andrew is tight with Woo. Kass voices that they should get rid of Spencer before the merge, but Ciera wants Woo gone. Kass talks to Spencer and she says there's stuff going on that could benefit him. Spencer is stunned to find out that Andrew, whom he got along well with, had been lying to him about who the target was.

Kass thinks Woo is a more pressing threat at the moment, while Spencer admits he may have to bunk with the devil and trust Kass. She then tells Woo that she's going to get her revenge on Spencer by voting him out that night. Kass weighs out the options: Get rid of a social threat (Woo) or a physical threat (Spencer). Since this is her first tribal of her second chance, she doesn't know whether "Calm Kass" or "Chaos Kass" will prevail.

Before they can commence with Tribal Council, Kass has to get fire for her torch, as she is the only one on Ta Keo to not have experienced it yet. At tribal, Spencer says he came into the game seeing the others as people, not just competition. Woo mentions that in his first season, he failed to see that he needed to be more cutthroat. Kass says it's hard to keep track of her allegiances, to which Andrew comments that he hasn't seen 'Chaos Kass' yet, he's only seen a loving, loyal Kass. Ciera then admits that as she's watching Andrew getting close with Woo, it's making her uncertain for the future. While Andrew says he has no doubts about tonight, Ciera foreshadows that someone's plan won't work out.

Jeff then calls for the vote. In a 4-3 vote, Woo ended up being blindsided when Kass decided to flip her vote onto him, making him the seventh person eliminated from Survivor: Cambodia. Spencer whispers "thank you" to Abi-Maria, while Andrew is stunned as to what just happened. Jeff extinguishes Woo's torch and he leaves, and Ta Keo head backs to camp.

In an epilogue, Terry is with his son, Danny, and it's revealed that he needed a heart transplant. He says Danny got the transplant and is doing well now, and that he's his real second chance.
