- Ep1 voted out: Diane, 6-2 over Clarence
Episode 1 scoring notes
- The editing of the RC/IC was... a little bizarre. Boran leads throughout the challenge, until Samburu gains a split-second advantage lighting the last fire, and then suddenly Samburu is moving twice as fast as Boran, and wins easily, over the final 50 yards or so. We see Diane collapse after the IC is over, but it seems pretty clear from Probst's comments (and the charity clap Samburu offers as Lex and Clarence carry Diane off the course) that Diane collapsed in the challenge itself. Why wasn't this shown? Did they just not have the footage? And why was Ethan--who, spoiler alert, wins the game--shown falling more than a... well, a professional soccer player? Obviously, the outcome is the outcome, but it's a bit strange that it seemingly came out of nowhere.
Vote count:
- Diane received 6 votes, from Ethan, Kim J., Lex, Kelly, Clarence, and Jessie (voted out, 6-2).
- Clarence received 2 votes, from Big Tom and Diane.

Glossary of terms
- Challenge
stats
- ChW: Challenge Wins. For tribal challenges, a contestant earns a fraction of 1 win, depending on if they participated (no points for sitting out). So in a five-person tribe's win, each participant gets (1/5) of a point, or 0.2 points. Duels (or individual RCs as in Ep1) at Redemption Island count as half a challenge (and half a win). Individual challenge wins count as a full point.
- ChA: Challenge Appearances. Used to calculate ChW%. Fractional for tribal challenges (same as ChW), except sit-outs get charged for an appearance, because they could have participated.
- ChW%: Challenge Win%. Simply, ChW% = ChW / ChA.
- SO: The number of times a contestant sat out of a challenge.
