Challenges[]
Challenge: Body Slam
The castaways would, in private, answer a survey about their fellow tribemates. They would then have to guess whose name came up the most from the group. Each time a castaway guessed correctly, they would be given the opportunity to chop at a rope that held a weight above a statuette that represented another castaway. After three chops of the rope, the statuette would be smashed and that castaway would be eliminated from the challenge. The last castaway whose statuette was not smashed would win reward.
Reward: A trip to Jellyfish Lake to swim among stingless jellyfish with a loved one; selection of two additional castaways and their loved ones to share the reward
Winner: Alexis Jones (shared with Cirie Fields and Natalie Bolton, exiled Amanda Kimmel)
Challenge: Shoot To Thrill
The castaways would take turns shooting a rifle at colored sake bottles. The first person who breaks all three of their bottles would win.
Winner: Erik Reichenbach

Voting Confessionals[]
Natalie and Alexis' voting confessionals were shown in the episode.
Cirie |
“ | (voting against Amanda) We both know this is just going through the motions. This doesn't mean anything. All part of the plan. | ” |
Natalie |
“ | (voting against Amanda) This is only because...if I did not make this vote, I would be handing you a million dollars. | ” |
Alexis |
“ | (voting against Amanda) Amanda, I absolutely adore you. This is one of the hardest votes I've put in. | ” |
Erik |
“ | (voting against Amanda) I gotta stop taking this game so personally. I'm really sorry. I am sorry. | ” |
Amanda |
“ | (voting against Alexis) Hey, babe. I'm voting for you because I have the idol. I think you're a great person and I really respect your game. You're very, very likeable, and the next biggest threat. I'm sorry, you have to go. | ” |
Parvati |
“ | (voting against Alexis) You are one of the funniest girls I've ever met, and I'm going to miss you a lot. I gave my word to Nat I would take care of her and protect her through this vote, so it's gotta be you this time. Sorry babe. | ” |
Final Words[]
Alexis |
“ | Yeah, I didn't see that one coming at all. But it's a game so yeah, I'm not mad at all. I think I made my pop proud. I never lied once when I was here. I kept a level of integrity of who I am outside of this game. I'm rooting for my girl Nat! Not even a question. This is the hardest physical, mental, spiritual thing I've ever done And I'm better for having me been here. | ” |

Behind the Scenes[]
Life at Ponderosa[]
Other[]
- This episode marks the first time Amanda received votes against her, though they did not count.
- This episode marked the first time there had been two medical evacuations in a single season.
- This is the first time in Survivor history that two contestants are eliminated in one post-merge episode, excluding finales.
- This is the first and only time someone part of the Black Widow Brigade was voted out before a male.
- This was the first time a woman has successfully played a Hidden Immunity Idol.
- With this episode, Parvati has improved on her original placement; she finished in 6th place in her original season.
- The title of the Immunity Challenge, Shoot to Thrill, references the AC/DC song of the same name.
- Due to Jeff Probst revealing[2] that the season was planned to have a Final Three before “extenuating circumstances” forced a Final Two, it can be deduced that the evacuation of James in this episode caused the Final Two due to how the jury phase started at an even number of players, implying a Final Three with seven jurors was planned at the start of the jury phase and that production was not planning on two people being eliminated in this episode.
