There's Gonna Be Tears Shed is the seventh episode of Survivor: David vs. Goliath.

Story

“	Alliances between the "Davids" and "Goliaths" are tested at the merge. Some castaways may join forces, and a new unlikely pair may choose to work together.	”
—Episode Synopsis

Day 18

On Day 18, the tribes merged. At the merge feast, it was made known that Alec Merlino had orchestrated the blindside against Natalia Azoqa while on Vuku, leading to distrust among the Goliath majority. After the feast, Elizabeth Olson proposed that the merged tribe be named "Kalokalo", the Fijian word for "star". While most of the tribe accepted the proposal, Carl Boudreaux expressed his chagrin and persistent irritation with Elizabeth to Dan Rengering.

Challenges

Immunity Challenge: Ring Leader
Castaways must swing a long pendulum through a frame around a statue. If the statue tips over or the pendulum loses momentum, they are eliminated from the challenge. At 15 minutes, the remaining castaways will be made to switch hands. The last person with their statue still standing wins.

Voting Confessionals

	Angelina	“	(voting against Elizabeth) That was poor form tonight. Seriously, I was trying to help you out. I hope you go home.	”

Final Words

	Elizabeth	“	Well, um, I got voted out. I did what I could, and it fell on deaf ears, but I certainly hope that tonight, that there were some cracks that revealed in the Goliath tribe. That's what I would really like, is to see a David win this game. As a fan, I still love Survivor more than I ever have in my life, and uh, I just had a great time.	”
