Episode 7
After 18 days of competition between the rival Pagong and Tagi tribes, Jenna and Sean represented their tribes for the upcoming merger of the two opposing groups in The Merger (Episode 7). They were sent to the other tribe's camp to check its livability. At the Tagi camp, the tribe insisted that their camp was better, as they claim that theirs had more supplies and the whole encampment was well-organized. Richard also claimed that food was also abundant there. During the house tour, Jenna also gossiped about the former Pagongs having a voting alliance against Tagi. Richard, Sue, Kelly, and Rudy then weighed their voting options, if they would eliminate the Pagongs first, or get rid of Sean (the only Tagi member that wasn't part of their alliance) instead.

After checking the camps, Jenna and Sean were instructed to proceed to the Sand Spit for a "summit" to compare both camps to decide on which of the two camps will the new tribe live. Jenna and Sean then received a feast, along with massage sessions while talking about their tribemates and their camps. While enjoying on a lap of luxury, Jeff Probst appeared and gave the "ambassadors" ten new green buffs, a blank tribe flag, and some paint to decorate their flag. He also instructed that the tribe that will transfer camps must only take three items from their own camp before moving. The two decided that Tagi was more livable, and they proceed to Pagong's camp.

Upon reaching Pagong beach, Jenna and Sean instructed the tribe to scour all their belongings and luxury items, together with the three survival items that the group can bring to Tagi. After deciding to bring their mosquito net, the cooking pot and their blanket, they then paddled to Tagi's camp, where their new tribemates welcomed them with open arms, except Rudy, who got annoyed because of all the commotion happening and the fact that they would have to refurbish their shelter that would fit ten people.

After Greg won the first individual Immunity Challenge, he, the other Pagongs, and Tagi outsider Sean foolishly split their votes (even to the point of almost voting each other out), while the Tagi alliance of Richard, Rudy, Kelly, and Sue banded together to eliminate who they thought of as Pagong's leader and motivator, Gretchen. Gretchen was eliminated after a confusing 4-1-1-1-1-1-1 vote.

Episode 8-10
In Thy Name Is Duplicity (Episode 8), after the confusing vote, the former Pagongs started to suspect that a conspiracy occurred that lead to Gretchen's demise, but still did not do anything. The Tagi alliance on the other hand felt that Gretchen was a social threat come the Final Tribal Council. A few more Tribal Councils down the line, the Tagi alliance (aided by Sean's strategy of voting in alphabetical order) proved to be strong, and Greg, Jenna, and Gervase were subsequently eliminated, leaving Colleen as the last Pagong member.

Episode 11-12
In Long Hard Days (Episode 11), despite having a strong voting alliance, Richard, Rudy, and Sue felt that Kelly's trust to them started to waver and considered voting her out (most notably Sue, who considered Kelly as a younger sister). But with Kelly winning the next Immunity Challenge, they stuck to the original plan, and Colleen, the last Pagong member, was eliminated.

In Death of an Alliance (Episode 12), Sean (the only ex-Tagi who was not part of the alliance) followed suit in the following Tribal Council - leaving the Tagi foursome as the final four.

Finale
In The Final Four - season finale, when Kelly again won immunity, the vote ended up a 2-2 tie between Susan and Richard (with Richard and Rudy voting for Sue, while Sue and Kelly voted for Richard). But when Jeff asked Rudy and Kelly to vote again, Kelly switched her vote and ultimately turned on her closest ally. Sue was thus sent home.

At the final Immunity Challenge, Richard decided to step down, because he thought that either of them would take him to the end. If Rudy won the challenge, he might take Richard because the latter felt that the former was his closest ally. If Kelly had won, she would also take him because of his deceptive game play. Kelly won, and Richard's assumptions were right, as Kelly indeed took him to Day 39, while Rudy was eliminated.

On Day 39, Richard and Kelly received criticism from the Jury, for duplicity and betrayal respectively. Susan berated Kelly for blindsiding her by reciting her infamous "rats and snakes" speech. In the end, Richard's more strategic game approach earned him enough votes to crown him as the first Sole Survivor.
