At Painaki camp, the dominant alliance of Tom, Yul, Amber, Parvati, Jenna, and Sandra is beginning to break up. Jenna and Amber are breaking off of the alliance, because they feel like they don't need to be in an alliance that big anymore. They want to get to the end on their own. Tom, Yul, Parvati, and Sandra decide that Jenna and Amber are more of a threat than J.T and Chris.
At the reward challenge, J.T wins a tour of the New Zealand wildlife by helicopter followed by a picnic. He invites Chris to come along with him.
At the immunity challenge, Parvati wins, giving her a spot in the final seven.
Before Tribal Council, Parvati, Tom, Sandra, and Yul have a discussion with J.T and Chris. They tell J.T and Chris about Jenna and Amber quitting the dominant alliance. That means that if J.T and Chris vote with them tonight, the two will be spared until the final six.
