During the night, Ale Saadi gave her Hidden Immunity Idol to Yusef Farah, following the plan to circulate the idol to gain the trust of her allies and prevent it from being stolen. However, Gabo Cuevas realized that Yusef was carrying something in his pants, so at dawn, when Yusef went fishing, he took the opportunity to steal the idol.

	Gabo	“	You never know who you are working for, and now I have this (shows the idol). This thing that she took care of so much, that she protected so much, today I have it in my hands. I'm going to save myself, obviously, and so I burn the idol that has given so much headache to one, to another and to many people.	”

Due to Fátima Pérez was evacuated, Jacky Ramírez joined the Halcones tribe to replace her.

Voting Confessionals

Voting Confessionals are translated from Spanish into English. Complete confessionals are retrieved from Survivor México's Facebook and Instagram accounts.

	Yusef	“	(voting against Julián) I am going to vote for this person, it hurts me because... it is not that he is... let's see, I want to be very frank, I know exactly what is going to happen today, and I know that David... I know which person David is going to vote for, and it would not be smart to waste votes for a person who I already know is going to be in that vote, in that Extinction Duel; I would have voted for that person and since I cannot, I know that many people are going to vote for Saadi, and I know that many people are going to vote for Julián and Gabo, and to avoid that there are four people and not three people in this Extinction Duel, I decide to vote for... Julián.	”

	Santi	“	(voting against Ale) This week in the game and athletically I feel it has cost her quite a bit, and that is the reason why... I decide this nomination.	”

	Gabo	“	(voting against Ale) I vote for this person because... I think our friendship inside Survivor is not working, the friendship we have outside is more beautiful than the one we have inside here, and from crying in your house to crying in mine, to crying in yours.	”

	Cyntia	“	(voting against Julián) For strategy.	”

	David O.	“	(voting against Ale) I vote for this person because... some actions she has done lately have not been the best for the tribe, and it's nothing personal but, for today I consider that she should be here.	”

	Ale	“	(voting against Gabo) It's simple strategy, and I know he's going to nominate me, it's very likely he'll nominate me as well.	”

	Viridiana	“	(voting against Julián) He has proven to be a person who is not upfront, and has tried on two occasions, unsuccessfully, to plot against me.	”

	Julian	“	(voting against Gabo) I vote for this person because... I still believe that he is one of the weakest links, and that it would be better to be able to move forward with food, to be able to move forward by winning, to be able to have better opportunities, in spite of being very close with him and having suddenly talked about things, I feel that it is the right thing to do and that this would help us as a tribe to move forward better.	”
