Quinlan was placed on the all-male [[Manono]] tribe, where he made a four-person alliance with fellow young members [[Jay Byars]], [[Bill Posley]], and [[Michael Jefferson]]; although it was later revealed that the alliance was also working with [[Colton Cumbie]] prior to him obtaining the Hidden Immunity Idol. Matt seemed to display an arrogant streak when he demanded the women to give his tribe a chicken after agreeing to split any chickens captured in a bi-tribe chicken round-up. During the first day, Quinlan warned tribemate Cumbie about making friends with the rival [[Salani]] tribe, telling him to act as the men's double agent, or "runner," but Cumbie on the other hand was determined to eliminate him, and was even more driven when he received a Manono-exclusive [[Hidden Immunity Idol]] from the women. Quinlan's game plans were put on hold, as Manono enjoyed two consecutive Immunity Challenge wins.

He then tried to pursuade Robertson to join them in changing up the game (along with his right hand man Otsuji) and gave a plea involving chickens and roosters that was the stuff of legend - he is now often referred to as the "Survivor Rooster." However, despite his efforts, Quinlan was voted out by the "Misfit Alliance," sending him home in a 7-1-1 vote.

Quinlan was placed on the all-male Manono tribe, where he made a four-person alliance with fellow young members Jay Byars, Bill Posley, and Michael Jefferson; although it was later revealed that the alliance was also working with Colton Cumbie prior to him obtaining the Hidden Immunity Idol. Matt seemed to display an arrogant streak when he demanded the women to give his tribe a chicken after agreeing to split any chickens captured in a bi-tribe chicken round-up. During the first day, Quinlan warned tribemate Cumbie about making friends with the rival Salani tribe, telling him to act as the men's double agent, or "runner," but Cumbie on the other hand was determined to eliminate him, and was even more driven when he received a Manono-exclusive Hidden Immunity Idol from the women. Quinlan's game plans were put on hold, as Manono enjoyed two consecutive Immunity Challenge wins.

On Night 4, while the younger male alliance were sleeping, Cumbie made a move by using his idol to persuade the other outsiders Troyzan Robertson, Tarzan Smith, Leif Manson, and Jonas Otsuji to counter the "Muscle Alliance."
