"Survivor" fans, were you too busy to catch the latest episode, but want to know what went down on the island? We've got you covered.
In the 10th episode, titled "My Enemies Are Plottin," some alliances were weakened and distrust continued to grow following the surprise vote-out of David Kinne from last week. His top ally, Mary Zheng, felt herself at the bottom of the majority alliance and began to look for other ways to keep her spot and gain power in the game, USA TODAY reports.
Meanwhile, the majority alliance continued to value physical strength and honesty, as members dominated this week's reward and immunity challenges.
Here's what happened on Season 48, episode 10.
Joe Hunter, a 45-year-old fire captain living in West Sacramento, California, won the coveted immunity necklace for the second consecutive week. Kyle Fraser, a 31-year-old attorney residing in Brooklyn, New York, also won a chicken and waffles reward.
Star Toomey, a 28-year-old sales expert living in Augusta, Georgia, became the latest person voted out of the game and the fourth member of the jury, USA TODAY writes.
The vote was down to Toomey or Mary Zheng, a 31-year-old substance abuse counselor living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Zheng had previously used her "shot in the dark" successfully and had no other advantages, so she tried to convince the group of her trustworthiness and persuade them to vote for Toomey.
Toomey, meanwhile, sat back and did little to interfere with the night's events, even telling host Jeff Probst at tribal council that she wouldn't give in to fear and that the "name of the game is to never get paranoid."
Much to the surprise of the three members of the jury, Star chose not to play her "shot in the dark," which would have allowed her to trade her vote for a one-in-six shot at immunity.
Although the vote was close, Toomey was ultimately voted off the show.
Here are the remaining contestants on "Survivor" season 48:
Eva Erickson, a 24-year-old PhD candidate living in Providence, Rhode Island.
Joe Hunter, a 45-year-old fire captain living in West Sacramento, California.
Kamilla Karthigesu, a 31-year-old software engineer living in Foster City, California.
Kyle Fraser, a 31-year-old attorney residing in Brooklyn, New York.
Mary Zheng, a 31-year-old substance abuse counselor living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Shauhin Davari, a 38-year-old debate professor living in Costa Mesa, California.
