After Probst greets them, they must each select a leader (Brendan, Chris), who must then pick someone to run an obstacle course (Michael, Sebastian) and dig up three keys, then another person (Laurel, Desiree) who will use those keys to unlock and solve a 4x4 slide puzzle. Once the puzzle stage starts, Probst starts a sand timer, and the chief must then decide (before the sand runs out) whether to give up on the challenge, preserving their fishing gear, while giving the winning tribe a larger reward. As time runs out, Chris pulls the lever, giving Malolo the win. Malolo wins an extensive tool kit, fishing gear, eggs. |

Ep.8 idol
Chris follows his clue to treemail, which tells him to sneak away from camp at night, in order to get an idol at Ghost Island. He does so, and it's JT's unused idol from Game Changers. But now it's only usable at the next Tribal. Chris then has the opportunity to extend his idol's effectiveness by playing the two tube guessing game, with 5 possible rounds. He plays once, wins, then plays again and loses. His idol now works at the next two Tribals, but he can't vote at the merge Tribal. |
