Adam found himself somewhere in the middle between the couple he had been with all along but never really trusted and a new set of tribemates. He chose to split from the showmance in Survivor Millennials Vs. Gen X Episode 6 and helped vote out Figgy.
Adam wants to talk to Taylor right away, but there does not seem to be much point. Taylor wants revenge.
David doesn’t really trust Chris, but he trusts Zeke, at least more than he trusts Chris. To prove his trust, he tells him he has an idol.
Michaela says it’s been time for Figgy to go home for a while. She’s perfectly fine with this result.
Reward challenge requires them to retrieve balls, score some baskets, and then land the balls on a perch. A chef will cook for them. Second place is some kabobs. Bret and Sunday sit out for Ikabula. Vanua foolishly tries to lift Zeke and falls behind before realizing that David is a lot lighter. Ikabula is leading from the start, but they stumble on the basket shooting and allow the others to pass them. Chris and Ken pull ahead in what looks like a lost cause. Vanua wins reward. After swapping Michaela for Jay, Ikabula comes back from behind to place second.
He doesn’t have much choice, so Taylor agrees to never write down Jessica’s or Ken’s name.
Bret tells Hannah he’s a funeral director, but she keeps prodding with specific questions about the business. She is pretty sure he is really a cop. Jay agrees.
The immunity challenge requires them to throw coconuts into a net and then slingshot sandbags at targets. Hannah and Will sit out for Ikabula. Takali is the first to lower their net. Ikabula follows. Michelle takes forever to piece together what seems to be a simple puzzle of putting three pairs of numbers in the right order, putting Vanua further behind. Takali wins immunity. With Ikabula unable to hit the targets, Vanua comes in second.
Unlike the other tribes where everybody is flipping, this seems like a pretty clear cut case of Bret or Sunday going home. They agree to vote for each other.
Afraid that Bret might be a cop and is lying to them, they want to vote for him after splitting the votes the first time. That’s always potentially a problem because all it would take is one person to flip. If only either Bret or Sunday were actually making an effort.
Jay worries Michaela is too dangerous to make the merge. His conversation with Will is not overly convincing, but even on his own, he has the numbers if they split the vote.

With 4 votes, Michaela has been voted off the island. She does not leave quietly and goes off on Jay, though Will is unscathed by her wrath.
