Day 7 (May 9) Ep.3 IC: Plank, poles, sandbagsNine tribemates must dig under a pole and go under it, then carry a heavy "plank" through a series of obstacles, eventually using it as a seesaw for the sandbags throwers (Hannah, Andy; ET, Nova) to retrieve sandbags. Then the throwers must try to toss those sandbags onto five poles their tribemates are holding up. First tribe to land a sandbag on each pole wins. Contenders take an early lead on the digging, never let up, although Champs briefly tie on sandbags, 3-3. Sandbags landed: Andy-4, Hannah-1, Nova-1, ET-2. Contenders win, 5-3.

Upon further review, they learn it's only good for a Champion to use at their Tribal, but as with Janine's idol, the two can be swapped, maybe. Shaun makes plans to try to do that at a challenge. Ep.5 RC: Water footballIn a surprise morale boost for the Champions, last season's fight-for-a-ball water challenge, in which points were scored with a giant slingshot, has had that last bit replaced by kicking a goal. By an amazing coincidence, the Champions just happen to have three pro footballers on their tribe! In further shocking news, those three kick five goals to the Contenders one (by Andy), and win reward: A trip to a "fish and chips shop" on the beach.
