This led to an interesting merge with the remaining 12 players as 6 were returning players from Original Duseng; while the other 6 castaways, were original Eau tribe members. With, 12 players merging; 4 pairs of "Loved Ones" and 4 players remaining without their "Loved One" Things definitely turned out a lot more interesting than expected.
The beginning of the merge began the Individual portion of the game as castaways competed for Individual Immunity throughout the remainder of the game. The first challenge came close between both Fox and Nano; however, Fox went on to win the challenge as Nano came a close second. FOX T. WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY!
With the beginning of the merge; players felt best to keep people they felt they could trust moving forward. This showed in the vote at Tribal Council as Gregory L. was the first boot of the merge; heading to the Island of Fire.........
*Crystal Faints*
"Medic!!!!"
*Production comes in and halls Crystal's Limp body out of T.C Area*
With Crystal being pulled from the game and Gregory voted out of the game; the remaining castaways competed in a challenge where prizes were able to be obtained.

*Shows Stoner winning Immunity*
STONER WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY!
At Tribal Council; without Fox and only 9 castaways voting at Tribal Council....some people took the time to attempt huge moves; while others stuck to their alliances. It was Josh Q. who was voted out in the end and he joined Gregory for the next Island of Fire duel. Josh prevailed; as Gregory became the 1st member of the Jury......
"Your journey ends here Gregory."

With Fox; re-joining the tribe, the nine remaining castaways competed in an extremely revealing challenge. It made some players prized bucks; while it may have hurt others games. JACK O. WINS INDIVIDUAL IMMUNITY!
