Day 28
The day after Jenna's booting, the ex-Pagongs are upset with Sean, whose alphabetical voting strategy put the nail in Jenna's coffin. Sean thinks that the other Tagis piggybacked off his vote, but he's still not convinced that an alliance exists. Meanwhile, Richard delights in the fact that he foiled Pagong's attempt to vote him out. He implies that he might stop catching fish until the remaining ex-Pagong members are gone. Behind his back, Sue and Kelly plot to dump Rich at the final three. "I trust Kelly 100%," says Sue. "We're like sisters." A special announcement arrives in treemail: Gervase's girlfriend has given birth to his fourth child. Gervase enjoys a cigar as his tribemates congratulate him.

Day 29
For the reward challenge, castaways must race across a series of tiles without falling in the water. Gervase beats out Richard to take the prize, earning himself a slice of pizza and a phone call home. Gervase gets to talk to his girlfriend and hear his new baby for the first time. Meanwhile, Kelly is feeling uneasy about being part of an alliance, feeling that it's too conniving. She feels as if she has "crossed to the dark side." She thinks about jumping ship.

Day 30
The Immunity Challenge requires the castaways to start a fire on the beach using driftwood. Richard ultimately wins, then does a silly dance. Back at Rattana camp, Gervase and Colleen, the last remaining ex-Pagongs, know they're in danger. They hope to strike an agreement with Sean and Kelly to thwart the Tagi alliance. But at Tribal Council, the Tagi alliance holds firm. And with Sean sticking up to his alphabet voting strategy, the five former Tagi members ganged up on Gervase, who was deemed more threatening than Colleen, was voted out, 5-2, Gervase will then join Greg and Jenna on the Jury.
