Both tribes had been informed of Carolina's surprise evacuation. As a result, TIMBIRA's tribal council has been cancelled. Before she left, Carolina has revealed that she did not find the talisman of destruction while she was on exile island.
JALAPAO camp: With Carolina out of the game, Tyson does not have much more options left. He still has his hidden immunity idol from CANTAO, but that would only buy him an extra three days. However, he might not be the intended target should JALAPAO lose as Spencer is beginning to question Joe's loyalties since he and Stephen didn't talk strategy with Spencer or Sydney since the alliance was created. Sydney told him not to get too paranoid and that Tyson was the next target.
TIMBIRA camp: Upon returning from tribal council, everyone was surprised to find out about Carolina's exit, especially Candace, who likely would have been voted out. Given the opportunity to start making the big moves, Candace plots to split up Erinn & Debbie since she noticed their "too close for comfort" alliance. Sierra, who was the outcast of the tribe, agreed to take control and split them up.

42 minutes: Erinn is eliminated
JALAPAO wins immunity.
TIMBIRA is going to tribal council, where someone will be voted out of the game.
Someone from TIMBIRA will be going to exile island. That person will return to their camp before tribal council. JALAPAO has decided to send Erinn to exile island for the second time in a row.
TIMBIRA camp: With Debbie's closest ally, Erinn, at Exile Island, Candace decides to go forward with her plan to split up Debbie & Erinn by blindsiding Debbie. Sierra had already agreed to the plan. Candace knew that if Taj found out about the plan, she would warn Debbie and Erinn to vote Candace out. Thus her only hope to get Debbie out was JT and Brendan siding with her and Sierra. While discussing their options, Brendan felt that, while Candace was a liability at camp, her annoyance would take the heat off of himself and JT. On the other hand, JT and Brendan did have an alliance with Debbie, Erinn, and Taj, and they had agreed to get Candace out first. As Erinn was returning from Exile Island, Taj told her and Debbie that she overheard Candace and Sierra discuss getting Debbie out, which surprised Debbie was Candace previously targeted JT. As Debbie informed JT not to trust Candace since she was targeting him previously, JT now felt unsure if he would vote with Candace. However, he would still vote with her if Brendan was willing to do the same.
--VULNERABLE--
Candace: conflictive attitude, excessive scheming
Debbie?: Candace's target (only if JT and Brendan side with her and Sierra)
Vote someone out from TIMBIRA. You cannot vote for yourself. NO SPAMMING!! If someone has spammed you to vote a certain way, mail me ASAP and you will not get in trouble.
Note that even if someone who was exiled has been voted out, they may not be voted out if they have the talisman of destruction. If that is the case, then the player with the second highest number of votes will be voted out instead. Brendan has been to exile island, so he may have the talisman, and he may not have it. Just to point it out now.
