Drew Christy, a 25-year-old traveling sales representative from Winter Park, FL, was voted out of his Hunahpu tribe on Night 10 at the season's fourth Tribal Council session.

"I knew all along those girls wanted me out of there. I'm obviously a physical and social threat to them. Congrats to them, they did a great job by getting me out. Because in the long run, I definitely would have beaten them. I just wish I would've been a little bit more chill and, kind of, rolled with the girls rather than, kind of, go against them right away, because it turned out to bite me in my butt," Drew said following his ouster.

Hunahpu featured the following castaways: Drew; Jeremy Collins, a 36-year-old firefighter from Foxboro, MA; Reed Kelly, a 31-year-old Broadway performer, model and aerialist from New York, NY; Jon Misch, a 26-year-old financial assistant from Waterford, MI; Julie McGee, a 34-year-old model and owner of a spray-tan business from Atlanta, GA; Natalie Anderson, a 28-year-old student and crossfit coach from Edgewater, NJ; Keith Nale, a 53-year-old fire captain from Shreveport, LA; Missy Payne, a 47-year-old owner of a competitive cheerleading gym from Dallas, TX; and Kelley Wentworth, a 28-year-old marketing manager from Seattle, WA.

The Coyopa tribe was comprised of Wes Nale, a 23-year-old firefighter from Shreveport, LA; Baylor Wilson, a 20-year-old student from Nashville, TN; Dale Wentworth, a 55-year-old farmer from Ephrata, WA; Jaclyn Schultz, a 25-year-old media buyer from Las Vegas, NV; Josh Canfield, a 32-year-old actor and writer from New York, NY; and Alec Christy, a 22-year-old student from Winter Park, FL.

Survivor's fourth episode began on Night 8 at Coyopa's camp after they voted out John Rocker. Baylor was happy about getting rid of the "biggest, strongest player on the tribe," whom she also believed had a bad attitude. That seemed to leave Dale on the outs, who admitted he had relied too heavily on the five-guy alliance.

On Day 9, Natalie ended up finding the flint they had lost. Drew was aggravated they had lost the fishing gear in order to get a second flight. Drew decided to bargain with Survivor host Jeff Probst again for the gear, saying without him, his tribe would be "nothing."

Both tribes then met Jeff Probst for a Reward challenge. Drew started out by saying that none of his tribemates had the "courage" to bring it up to him, but he was hoping to trade their second flight for something reasonable -- like, say, half the fishing gear they would've received at a previous Reward Challenge.

Jeff said Drew's request sounded "reasonable" but then ordered him to put the flint back because it clearly wasn't happening. Jeff was just teasing the tribe.

The host then explained the rules to the Reward Challenge. One person from each tribe was required to use a grappling hook to retrieve three bags of balls. Once a player had the balls, he or she needed to use a catapult to launch those balls into a series of five baskets. The first person to get one ball in each basket would win Reward.

Jaclyn from Coyopa faced off against her boyfriend Jon from Hunahpu. Jon ended up winning the challenge and had to send someone from his own tribe to Exile Island to join Jaclyn. Jon didn't doubt Jaclyn would be fine on her own, so he picked Drew simply because he's "a good guy."

For winning the challenge, Hunahpu could choose between receiving temporary food or long-term comfort. They selected comfort.

Alec feared his Coyopa tribe might end up being the worst in Survivor history.

Once Hunahpu returned to camp, Jon said he trusted Drew but thought he was really lazy. Julie was also getting over the fact her boyfriend John Rocker had been voted out of the game. She said it was hurtful that "the love of her life" was eliminated and everyone seemed to be "just anti-John rocker." Julie prepared herself for the worst but tried to get her mind back on the game.

Meanwhile, Drew got a hidden Immunity Idol clue on Exile Island and Jaclyn didn't. He was attracted to the girl with a "Miss Michigan look," but the self-described "lady's man" said he didn't go on Survivor for love nor did he compete to steal "one of his buddy's girls." Drew wanted to strategize and "manipulate minds."

Drew then revealed to Jaclyn he wanted to throw the next Immunity Challenge because there were "snakes" on his tribe who just had to go. Drew mentioned to her that the girls were untrustworthy.

Over at Hunahpu, Keith looked for the idol, as he had previously received a clue on Exile Island, but the area looked torn up, as if someone else had gotten there first. Keith assumed Jeremy had beaten him to the punch and then warned the girls in his tribe that Jeremy probably had an idol in his pocket. Reed was also a part of that conversation and then shared Keith's announcement with Jeremy.

Jeremy was shocked because Keith had been in his alliance and they had a firefighters bond. He was disappointed and told the cameras that if Keith thought he had an idol, they should've been on the same page and discussed using it together rather than just outing him to the entire tribe. Keith apparently wasn't on anyone's radar, but then Jeremy determined he wanted him gone.

Keith, however, ended up finding a hidden Immunity Idol and decided not to tell anyone about it. Keith didn't mind the fact his tribe presumed Jeremy had an idol in his possession.

On Day 10, Alec and Baylor said in separate confessionals they were getting on each other's nerves. Alec didn't like how Baylor supposedly got everything in life handed to her when he had to work hard for all he gained -- unlike his brother Drew.

Both tribes then gathered again for their fourth Immunity Challenge of the season. Drew and Jaclyn returned to their respective tribes.

Jeff Probst explained one person from each tribe must swim out, race up a platform, dive into the water to retrieve a ring, bring it back to the start, and then the next person could go. Once a tribe collected all four of its rings, the two remaining tribe members must attempt to throw those rings and land them on a post.

Coyopa had yet to win an Immunity Challenge, but Drew ended up throwing it just like he had said. He tossed the rings poorly from the dock and seemed completely discombobulated. Jeff yelled at him for breaking the rules a couple times and "single-handedly losing it for his tribe."

Coyopa therefore won the challenge and the tribemates were thrilled. This marked the first time they wouldn't have to go to Tribal Council and vote someone off.

Drew bragged to the cameras that if he didn't want to win, his tribe wasn't going to win, and that's what made him the "King pin" of Hunahpu. Drew called himself "a badass" and "manipulator in this game."

Voting discussions then commenced, and Jon feared going into the merge, individuals would outweigh the couples, so it made sense to oust someone without a loved one still around. Jon declared Julie the easy target and everyone agreed because she didn't really help out at challenges or at camp. Drew, however, interrupted, disagreed and voiced his opinion loudly.

Drew argued there was no reason to get rid of Julie and then asked his alliance which person was the most dangerous player in their tribe. No one really knew, and then Drew noted it was Kelley because she had seen every episode of Survivor and was capable of overthrowing the guys. 

Keith acknowledged that Kelley knew the game but she wasn't a physical threat. Drew kept insisting though that Julie would never beat them, so they should keep her, while Kelley played a low-key, observant game. Drew found Kelley to be the biggest threat no matter what anyone else said, and he made it his goal to vote her out.

Jeremy told Drew, Jon and Natalie that they needed to have his back and get Keith out. Jeremy also thought it was ridiculous for Drew to say Kelley was running the girls, because it didn't even matter since the girls did not have the numbers. He was annoyed how Drew always called the shots and didn't discuss things with the alliance.

Afterward, Natalie talked to Missy about just voting Drew or Jon out, and they agreed upon Drew. Natalie found him "so annoying" and Kelley also overheard Drew telling the guys he wanted her out. Kelley observed everyone getting pissed at him for needing the final say on things.

Natalie then spoke to Jeremy and Missy about getting rid of Drew. They thought they could convince Jon to do it, but the big move made Jeremy nervous. Jeremy admitted the guys were "all over the place," as Jon wanted Julie out, Jeremy wanted Keith gone, and Drew wanted to vote Kelley out.

Jeremy realized Drew was "digging his own grave" but still wasn't sure if it was the right time to take charge.

At Tribal Council that night, Julie announced Jon and Drew appeared to be best friends. Missy also revealed there seemed to be a lot of chiefs and not enough Indians on the tribe. She said half the tribe was selfish.

Drew admitted everyone was "playing nice" until it came down to casting their votes. He also didn't take responsibility for losing the Immunity Challenge, saying they could blame swimmers and retrievers as well. 

Jeremy then openly discussed how Keith had betrayed him with talk of an idol. Keith said it was all part of the game and he couldn't just trust Jeremy alone. Jeremy said they absolutely could've been a strong alliance with sub-alliances, but Keith didn't seem to understand or appreciate the idea.

Afterward, Drew declared he wanted to strengthen the tribe and get rid of the "bad energy." Kelley insisted no one agreed upon who was the bad seed in the bunch and Drew was after her for no good reason. Jon confessed he was confused about which name to write down.

Jeff then revealed the votes. Two people voted for Julie, one person voted for Kelley -- who was obviously Drew -- one player voted for Keith, and four castaways voted for Drew.

Drew was blindsided but said "good job guys" on his way out. Jon sat there and said "good play girls" in shock.

The episode's closing credits revealed Drew had voted for Kelley, Jon voted for Keith, Reed and Keith voted for Julie, and everyone else voted to oust Drew from Survivor: Natalie, Missy, Jeremy, Kelley, and Julie.
