I Never Forgive

This is the ninth episode of Survivor: Aruba.

Previously on Survivor..
After Will promised his loyalty to Ben and Maddie, the tribes merged the following day. Automatically, Austin, Maddie, Kayla, and Ben grouped back up, pulling in Angel, Eliza, and Will into the group. Cassidy saw that Austin was in charge of the group of seven, and tried to persuade her closest allies, Drew and Joyce, to help her and Maria vote out Austin. Cassidy planned to try and get Eliza and Will back on their side by reminding them that they are on the bottom.

Eliza believed that Angel, Ben, and Austin were extremely close, and that her, Maddie, and Kayla were on the bottom of the alliance. The three women talked about jumping ship, but none of them were sure if it was the right move.

In the hours before the upcoming Tribal Council, Cassidy thought she had a solid voting bloc of herself, Maria, Joyce, Drew, Eliza, and Will. However, Will betrayed Cassidy, telling Austin that Cassidy was gunning for him. Austin played his idol, though there was no need to, as only Cassidy and Maria stuck with the plan. Maria was voted out in a 9-0 vote, making her the first person on the Jury

10 are left, who will be voted out next?
