After Jonathan returned from Exile Island, Being sent by the Manihiki tribe, Adam had an argument with his tribe. Candice told him to watch out, with him promising her he will. After a tribe dissolve and  two switches, Adam stayed on Rarotonga with Parvati. Visiting numerous tribal councils, his tribe gave up J.P. Calderon, Stephannie Favor ,Cristina Coria,Brad Virata, Rebecca Borman, and Jenny Guzon-Bae. When a merge was finally called, Adam was grateful. But Adam and the others would soon fall into the hands of the Aitu Four, as they picked off everyone, one by one. When Adam's only ally, Parvati, was voted off, Adam knew he had to win immunity, or else he was toast, which he failed to do. At the next Tribal Council, Adam was voted off in a 4-1 vote. As a juror, Adam cast his vote for Yul Kwon, who eventually won.
