Survivor Season 49 Episode 7: Nate's unexpected elimination from the show

The latest Survivor Season 49 Episode 7 featured yet another elimination. With 6-4 votes from fellow contestants, Nate was sent home. There was a close call between him and Steven.

CBS describes the latest Survivor Season 49 Episode 7 as:

"A boat arrives delivering a very important message to the overjoyed castaways; old alliance members reconvene to talk strategy; the game intensifies when a two-part challenge leads to the season's first individual immunity win."

At the Tribal Council, cast members talked about tribe swap, changes in the current season of the show, and more. A few of them didn't have clarity as to where their alliances stood with some of their fellow tribe members.

Rizo noted having a Hidden Immunity Idol. MC also had one. Even though Rizo mentioned that he would be using his immunity, he didn't. On the contrary, MC was safe after she used her idol for safety.

Soon, they all voted, and Survivor host Jeff Probst revealed the voting results. Nate received six votes, while Steven was closely behind with four votes. With the majority of votes against him, Nate was eliminated from the CBS show. As he left for him, Nate became the first Jury member.

While leaving, Nate talked about being blindsided by fellow castaways. He talked about Jawan and Sage and how the two lacked loyalty. However, Nate also mentioned that it was "the game," and that's how it turned out. Despite being blindsided, Nate confessed that he did not expect to be in the game this long.

Survivor Season 49 Episode 7: Nate failed to gain trust from fellow tribe members

Earlier that day, Nate had a chat with fellow tribemates. While talking to Sophie, MC, and a few others, he talked about Jason and Matt.

In his private confession, Nate noted that he was establishing a baseline of being a truthful narrator. It was because he was going to lie to them. Later, he told Sophie that he liked Jason, and it was a tough call. He also recalled working together with him, which was a lie.

"My story to them is that I was working with Jason, because, gosh, he's just the coolest guy. The truth is...I love my former Uli members. We unanimously voted Jason out of the game, but I have to show this tribe I am not Uli strong. That I am willing to work with Hina. And I think they bought it," confessed Nate.

But that was not the case. They had a conversation without Nate. Sophie noted that it didn't add up. She suspected that it could be lies. MC agreed. She also confessed to having a feeling that Nate was telling her what she wanted to hear. Sophie felt as if he was feeding her all sorts of lies. She felt that in reality, Nate was not ready to turn his back on the old Uli Tribe.

"For all I know, they are all best friends. He loves all of them and...I don't trust him," added Sophie.

She also added that if they were going to the Tribal Council, Nate would be the one to go home, and that's what happened.
