Blood Is Blood

Blood Is Blood is the fifth episode of.

The episode chronicled the aftermath of a tribe swap that reunited many of the remaining couples. As Reed Kelly defected to his boyfriend's alliance on the New Hunahpu, Jaclyn Schultz and Jon Misch were caught as swing votes in the New Coyopa. Ultimately, they sided with Baylor Wilson and Missy Payne to vote out Kelley Wentworth. The episode also dealt with food rationing, culminating in Hunahpu's request for an extra bag of rice, having eaten their way entirely through the supplied resources.

Day 11
On Day 11, a tribe switch occurred:

Immunity
Challenge: Shakedown Street 

Each tribe will race to dig up a bag buried in the sand, which contains two keys. They will then crawl through the mud and use one of the keys to open a gate. The next step is to shake a basket to release sandbags. Once a tribe has collected all their sandbags, then two tribe members will attempt to land those sandbags on wobbly platforms. The first tribe to land ten sandbags wins immunity.

Final Words
"coyopa"

- I almost wish I didn't play with my dad. I think he was more of a hindrance, um, than help for me. I would trade anything to be back with my old tribe and still in the game and for him to, to not play with him at all, um, especially coming into Coyopa. People are not a huge fan of him in the Coyopa tribe so, you know, it just did not go in my favor because of that.
