Going into the merge, the returnees were all quite paranoid that the fans would pick them off one by one since they had a 6-4 numbers advantage, the four of them all came together and reaffirmed an alliance to try and combat that.

Meanwhile, the fans were a fucking mess by this point with Don and Bridget reuniting. Don had also bonded really well with Lauren on the new Walewale tribe, making the three of them a strong trio while Lauren balanced supposed side deals with the rest of the former Walewale tribe members such as Theo, Ben, and Deborah. After Sebastian won immunity, the fans came together and tried to put together a plan to vote out Fawn due to them perceiving her as the leader of the returnees for her and Jane's cocky and haughty behavior. However, feeling very unsure about Ben for a while now, Don decided to come up with his own little plan to pull a fast one on the repo agent before he could turn on them. Playing off of the connections that Lauren had with Theodore and that Bridget had forged with Fawn, the trio hoped to pull in enough numbers to blindside Ben and take out a huge wild card and a big physical threat. However, this was their ultimate undoing as the returnees saw their chance to vote out a more strategic threat from the fans seeing as the fans were now split.

Knowing that she had been the one to orchestrate Jayson's blindside on the New Kumasi, Bridget was the top of the target list for the veterans, with both Fawn and Jane leading that charge in spite of the fact that Bridget had genuinely wanted to work with them. With their four votes, along with Theodore's who had also been convinced by Fawn to switch seeing as he had been left out of the Don-Bridget-Lauren clique, the returnees secured enough votes to blindside Bridget and leave the fans in shambles for the next couple of votes.
