Ep.1 RC: Rice race

Ep.1 RC: Rice race

Ep.1 RC: Rice race

Tribes have two minutes to grab supplies from the boat and put them on their tribe raft, then they must paddle to shore and lift up one person (Katinka, Chané) to untie a bag of rice. First tribe to do so gets to keep their rice. Mindanao has a lead getting to shore, wins.

Next: Ep.1 idol →

Ep1 RC: (Rice race) - Mindanao wins.

Ep.1 idol clue: Werner

Ep.1 idol clue: Werner

Ep.1 idol clue: Werner

Werner wanders off during Mindanao's shelter construction, and starts looking for idols/clues. He finds a package in a tree root fairly quickly. It's an idol clue, which tells him an idol will be hidden at a future challenge. He pockets the clue and heads back. The next day, after a Tevin-directed search of Marthunis's bag, Werner decides to dispose of the clue by eating it. Mmm, cluey.

Ep.1 IC: Jail Break plus

Ep.1 IC: Jail Break plus

Ep.1 IC: Jail Break plus

Two pairs of people (Seamus/Chane, Vusi/Annalize; Mathunis/Katinka, Werner/Tevin) must swim out to a dock, untie a bag of sticks and rope, then bring it back. Then two people (Josie/Palesa; Murishca/Toni) must tie the sticks together to make a pole long enough for another person (Neil; PK) to retrieve a key from inside a cage, unlock it, and retrieve a flint. Then two people (Jeanne/Stacey-Lee; Ace/Tom) make a fire to burn through a rope, releasing a torch. The tribe then lights the torch, and takes it to a logo sign. First tribe to light that with their torch wins immunity and flint. Werner is slow to untie his bag, but Mindanao is first to make flame, and Mindanao wins.

Ep.2 idol clue: Palesa

Ep.2 idol clue: Palesa

Ep.2 idol clue: Palesa

Like Werner at Mindanao, Palesa finds a clue to an idol that will be hidden at a future challenge, while foraging near Luzon camp. Unlike Werner, Palesa manages not to eat her clue.

Palesa finds idol clue.

Ep.2 RC: Raft, cube puzzle

Ep.2 RC: Raft, cube puzzle

Ep.2 RC: Raft, cube puzzle

Jeanne sits out. Four people from each tribe (Neil, Tom, Vusi, Chane; Werner, Stacey-Lee, Tevin, PK) start on a raft, where they must pull themselves to a structure they climb up, untie a key, slide down a pole, and place it on a key ring on shore. Once all four keys are retrieved, the remaining four use them to unlock four large cubes that must be stacked vertically so that no side has repeating colors (as in Samoa). Winner gets a choice of chickens or a bag of rice. Results: Luzon is first to the puzzle, but Mindanao wins. They choose chickens.

← Previous: Ep.2 idol (clue) Next: Ep.2 IC →

Ep2 RC: (Raft, cube puzzle) - Mindanao wins.

Day 6
(Jan. 20)

Ep.2 IC: Stair poles, maze, plank puzzle

Ep.2 IC: Stair poles, maze, plank puzzle

Ep.2 IC: Stair poles, maze, plank puzzle

Katinka sits out. Tribes must assemble a staircase of different length poles, and climb up it to enter a vertical maze. Upon leaving the maze they must go down a slide, then one person (Tevin, Vusi) must thread a key along a rope obstacle. That unlocks a machete, which one person (PK, Tom) must use to chop through a plank, releasing puzzle planks. Those must be placed vertically to form three numbers, which are the combination to a lock that when opened, releases the tribe flag. Results: Mindanao takes a lead on the poles at the start, never loses it. Mindanao wins its fourth straight challenge.

Ep2 IC: (Stair poles, maze, plank puzzle) - Mindanao wins.

Ep.3 RC: By The Numbers

Ep.3 RC: By The Numbers

Ep.3 RC: By The Numbers

Marthunis, Murishca sit out. As seen in Vanuatu. Tribes must move their entire tribe along a balance beam by having the furthest person pass each other remaining person, ending on a platform. If anyone falls off or touches two people at once, they have to start over. First tribe to finish wins comfort items. ALSO: Both Palesa's and Werner's idols are present on the challenge site, ready to be grabbed. Werner hears Jeanne and Stacey talking about it, jumps off, grabs the idol. Tom spots Luzon's under Chane, tells her to grab it, and she does. Challenge results: Luzon wins, easily, 7-0.

← Previous: Ep.2 IC Next: Ep.3 idols →

Ep3 RC: "By the Numbers" - Luzon wins.

Ep.3 idols: Werner, Tom

Ep.3 idols: Werner, Tom

Ep.3 idols: Werner, Tom

Both Werner and Tom end up with the idols that were "hidden" at the Ep3 RC. Werner and Palesa each attended the challenge having been tipped off by treemail's wording ("balance") that one would be there. Werner grabbed Mindanao's after hearing Jeanne telling Stacey-Lee about it. Palesa was trying to get Luzon's, but didn't have a chance, until Tom spotted it, and asked Chané, who had already completed the challenge and was sitting above it, to grab it. Back in camp, Chané gave the idol to Tom.

Werner, Tom get idols.
Day 8

Ep.3 IC: Obstacles, choices, puzzles

Ep.3 IC: Obstacles, choices, puzzles

Ep.3 IC: Obstacles, choices, puzzles

PK, Tevin sit out. Contestants must run through an obstacle course, collecting six wooden pins and two tribe clubs. Along the way, they can decide to use two shortcuts, but doing so adds 10 pieces to the puzzle they must finish at the end. Mindanao (likely throwing the challenge) takes one shortcut, ends up trailing, particularly because Stacey-Lee has to cross the balance beam multiple times. Luzon wins.

Ep3 IC: (Obstacles, choices, puzzles) - Luzon wins.

Ep.4 tribe swap

Ep.4 tribe swap

Ep.4 tribe swap

Tribes arrive at what appears to be a challenge site. Then Nico tells them to drop their buffs, walk out to a field filled with poles that have baskets on top, take an egg, and bring it back. Everyone then cracks an egg on themselves, revealing the color of their new tribe: Red, blue ... or yellow (the new Visayas tribe). Meanwhile, when picking up the farthest-away egg, Palesa found an idol clue, which she pocketed to read later - it's for an idol held at Tribal Council.

← Previous: Ep.3 IC Next: Ep.4 RC →

Tribe swap: 3 tribes! Palesa finds idol clue.

Ep.4 RC: Shakedown Street

Ep.4 RC: Shakedown Street

Ep.4 RC: Shakedown Street

As seen in San Juan del Sur. Held immediately after tribe swap, creating three tribes of five. Tribes must cross a mudpit to retrieve two keys. One unlocks a gate, behind which is a pole, which they must shake to drop out sandbags. Finally, they must land three sandbags on a swinging platform. Winning tribe receives all the rewards from past RCs plus a brand-new pre-made camp. Second-place wins spices plus the pick of the other two camps. Sandbags landed: Werner-1 (L1), Tevin-1 (M1), Werner-2,3 (L3) - Luzon wins! PK-1,2 (M3). Mindanao is second. Tom fails to land a single bag for Visayas.

Ep.4 IC: Obstacles, sandbags, block tower

Ep.4 IC: Obstacles, sandbags, block tower

Tribes must cross a series of obstacles, then use sandbags to knock blocks off a high beam. Then they must use those blocks to build a tower that stands at least three seconds. First two tribes to do so win immunity. Order to tower: Luzon, Mindanao, Visayas. Mindanao wins. Luzon has their stack complete, but it falls. Same happens to Visayas. (Multiple falls for both.) Eventually, Visayas takes second.

← Previous: Ep.4 RC Next: Ep.5 RC/IC →

Ep4 IC: (Obstacles, sandbags, block tower) -  Mindanao 1st, Visayas 2nd.

Ep.5 RC/IC: Rungs, rungs

Ep.5 RC/IC: Rungs, rungs

Ep.5 RC/IC: Rungs, rungs

Chané (Visayas), Annalize (Mindanao) sit out. Tribes must move planks through an A-frame, across obstacles, then to a monkey bar that they must build themselves with rungs. Then a horizontal ladder (rungs again), then two people (Marthunis, Tevin; Jeanne, Josie; Murishca, Palesa) work a plank puzzle that again uses the same rungs. Winner gets immunity plus chicken wraps, fresh fruit, and Bio-Strath. Second place gets immunity and a watermelon. Results: Mindanao wins easily, Luzon passes Visayas on the puzzle to take second.

Ep.6 RC/IC: (Team) This Much

Ep.6 RC/IC: (Team) This Much

Marthunis sits out. As seen in SurvivorAU: 2017. Contestants must stand side-by-side with their tribemates, holding a disc up only by pushing their palm against the disc while their neighbor does the same. Last tribe with at least one disc still up wins. Both losing tribes will attend Tribal. Winning tribe also gets reward: A Steers build-your-own-burger bar. Results: All reach 5 min, then Chane drops, Vusi drops, leaving Visayas with just Tom-Palesa. Other two tribes both drop the middle disc, leaving two pairs. [20 min.] Josie/Jeanne drop. [30 min.] Annalize/Tevin drop. [40 min.] PK/Katinka drop, Mindanao out. [1 hr., 5 min.] Toni/Werner drop, Luzon loses, and Visayas wins!

Ep.6 idol: Werner

After finally spotting the same clue on the shelter that had inspired Ace and Josie's digging, Werner takes advantage of a moment where Josie and Toni are chatting on the beach to dig for the idol. He finds it surprisingly quickly, considering Ace came up empty, but no matter: Werner now has two idols.
