Beto placed 1st, making him Team Ostrich Captain, Scheila placed 2nd, making her Team Rabbit Captain and Marcio placed 3rd, making him Team Sheep Captain. Yani was not chosen by any group, and was therefore awarded a free pass into the second stage of the Super Key Power Challenge.
^Note 2 : On Day 3, Team Rabbit (Scheila, Marcos, Lu, Paulo and Andressa) won the first stage of the challenge, which meant they all advanced to the second stage, where they would compete as individuals alongside Yani.

Andressa was asked to start and she saved Bárbara, who saved Gominho, who saved Yani, who saved Paulo, who saved Ivo, who saved Rita, who saved Mateus, who saved Beto, who saved Aryane, who then saved Yudi. This left Márcio as the third nominee for the week.

Aryane received 2 votes (from Marcos and Paulo), Beto received 1 vote (from Scheila), Mateus received 1 vote (from Yani) and Rita received 1 vote (from Lu), therefore, Aryane was automatically nominated.

Yudi placed 1st, while Yani placed 2nd, so Mateus (3rd) and Beto (4th) were automatically nominated for eviction by default.
