Shocked that Beyoncé had found the hidden immunity idol, Stefani congratulated her friend on not giving up and not being afraid to turn on a traitor with Katy to remain alive in the game. Both Miley and Taylor were stunned, but both realized that losing Katy wasn't that big a deal, since now it pretty much leveled the playing field and pitted Beyoncé and Stefani against the two of them. All four females soon acknowledged this, and seemed ready to go forward and fight to the end. Miley, always being the more adventurous one, did pull Stefani aside and warned her that going to the end with Beyoncé would make her lose, since Beyoncé would easily be given the money after all the hardships she's gone through so far, whereas going to the end with her and Taylor would guarantee her a win. Stefani realized this to be true, but she wasn't sure if she would ever turn against her right-hand woman like that.
Following the Anaconda tribe's first loss as a unit, all five singers began to slowly fracture apart. Harry and Justin both began to argue over who to vote out between Marshall and Nicki, since both were incredibly unpredictable and dangerous, yet both also helped them out in the past and it felt wrong betraying either of them. Marshall and Nicki, of course, refused to speak to one another and instead spoke separately to Tim, since they viewed him as the most mature out of the three young boys on the tribe. Tim explained to Nicki, but not Marshall, that it might be best to vote out Justin, since despite how the world hated him, the fact is he really was playing a good, honest game and it would be a great story to see him win in the end due to how America loved redemption stories. Ever the troublemaker, Nicki went and blabbed about this to Justin, who was stunned that Tim would be suggesting to vote him out. Harry still didn't want to turn on Justin or Tim, but realized he might have to if he wanted to win in the end. Marshall had pretty much no idea what was going on.
At tribal council, Tim explained that this was the point in the game to make a big move, and likely somehow unexpected would be leaving tonight. Knowing exactly what he meant, Justin finally snapped and angrily told off Tim, saying how Miley, Nicki and others had all come to him before and explained how he was going behind his back making side-deals. Justin explained that he was trying to be nice and trust Tim over them, but enough was enough. Tim, instead of remaining cool, spat back at Justin that he was a target since day one for a reason, and no one liked him, so it was only natural everyone would trust him over him. While pretty much just ignoring the dazed and confused Harry, both Justin and Tim began to fight over Marshall and Nicki, attempting to get them to vote out the other and proclaim that they were the more trustworthy one. Nicki looked downright elated and overjoyed at this chaos, while Marshall looked like a deer in the headlights. Harry looked shaken and completely broken. When it came time to vote, it was a mess. Justin and Tim both voted against one another. Harry refused to vote against either, and stuck to his plan to vote out Marshall. This made Marshall and Nicki the deciding votes. Despite hating one another, both ended up voting against Tim. This led the horrified boy who thought he was in control of the game getting blindsided and sent to the jury in a 3-1-1 vote.
Dark Horse Tribe:
Beyoncé Knowles
Miley Cyrus
Stefani Germanotta (Lady Gaga)
Taylor Swift
With the power-hungry Tim voted out and Nicki remaining as the lone troublemaker on the Anaconda tribe, the four remaining players on the tribe banded together and got right back to the winning formula as they stole the next immunity challenge over the all-female Dark Horse tribe.
