The 18 new castaways arrived in Fiji by boat to begin their Survivor journey.
Marooning Challenge: Two tribe members raced into the jungle for crates. Two other tribe members then retrieved a boat full of crates from the ocean. The last two members assembled the crates to make a cube, which one tribe member would climb to ring a bell hanging above them. The first to ring the bell won flint, a pot, and a machete for their tribe. The two losing tribes would have to send a tribe member away to complete another challenge to earn their supplies.
Hina won the reward challenge. Uli sent Rizo to complete the supply challenge, while Kele sent Alex.
Supply Challenge: Each castaway must retrieve ten marked coconuts on a small peninsula, each containing multiple puzzle pieces. Once all coconuts are collected, they must use the pieces to assemble a map revealing the location of a buried ship wheel; each tribe had its own wheel in a different location on the peninsula. Using the wheel, they must raise their tribe's sail, which releases a key to the chest containing the supplies. The first to unlock the chest wins the supplies for their tribe.
Rizo completed the challenge first, winning supplies for Uli.
Immunity Challenge: Each tribe was split into three pairs. Each pair in turn navigated a rope tunnel, crawled through a muddy pit, then raced into the jungle to retrieve a large serpent. When all three serpents were retrieved, three players worked together to navigate a ball along a winding snake track. The first two tribes to finish won immunity.
Hina and Uli won the challenge. At Kele, the majority alliance of Alex, Jake, Jeremiah, and Sophi targeted outsiders Annie and Nicole, considering them the weakest members of the tribe physically, Nicole in particular. Annie attempted to form an alliance with Sophi, saying that she wanted to target Alex and Jake in the future. Sophi notified the majority alliance of Annie's proposal, and they considered voting Annie out over Nicole because of this. However, at Tribal Council, they ultimately chose to vote out Nicole.

At Kele, Alex and Jake found a beware advantage, and the majority alliance affirmed their plan to target Annie next. At Hina, Matt invited MC into his alliance with Kristina and Steven, but a distrustful MC alerted Sophie of this. At Uli, Jawan was on the outs and further strained his relationship with Savannah by unknowingly taking her bag and dumping its contents to fill it with firewood. Jake, Jawan, and Matt were chosen for a journey.
Journey: Players tossed coconuts in their opponents’ bags, causing them to eventually drop from the weight. The last person left standing won.
Jawan won and had a choice between stealing Jake or Matt’s next vote or imposing a disadvantage on Hina or Kele at the next challenge. He chose the latter.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes traversed an obstacle course and dug a ladder out, holding it up for one member to retrieve a key. The key unlocked a ramp to a large puzzle. The first two tribes to complete their puzzle won immunity plus a large fishing kit for first place and a smaller fishing kit for second place.
After learning the disadvantage would be for each tribe member to carry twenty pounds of coconuts through the obstacle course and to work through ten keys instead of one, Jawan chose to penalize Hina. In spite of the penalties, Hina placed first and Uli placed second after Kele’s massive lead was blown at the puzzle. At Kele, Alex found an idol and told everyone, including Annie, who Alex had tried to secretly align with. He considered voting out Sophi over Annie, but at Tribal Council, everyone stuck to the original plan to vote out Annie.

At Kele, on the morning of the Immunity Challenge, Jake was bitten by a sea krait. He was immediately taken to Base Camp, where the medical staff treated him. While the bite was determined to be non-venomous, the medical staff refused to clear him to return to the game, given the conditions at Kele and the inability to monitor his condition. (Unusually, significant portions of Jake's treatment at Base Camp were shown on-camera; moreover, Alex showed that each tribe receives a binder depicting animals and plants to avoid.)
Immunity Challenge: One tribe member from each tribe raced to the top of a tower and leapt into the ocean. They then crossed a survivor water totter, retrieved a key, made their way across a series of floating platforms, and swam to the end. Then the next two players went. Once everyone was at the end, two players unlocked and solved a survivor turtle puzzle. The first two tribes to finish won immunity.
Hina and Uli won yet again. MC and Rizo found Hina and Uli's respective beware advantages. Sophi and Jeremiah plotted to blindside Alex by making him feel comfortable enough to not play his idol, but when Sophi overheard Alex tell Jeremiah he was considering voting Sophi to save himself, Sophi considered voting Jeremiah instead. At Tribal Council, Alex played his idol and Jeremiah was voted out.

On day 8, the tribes were reshuffled and Uli was disbanded. Sophi from Kele and Jawan, Nate, Rizo, and Savannah from Uli joined Jason and Matt at Hina. Kristina, MC, Sophie, and Steven from Hina and Sage and Shannon from Uli joined Alex at Kele.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Starting in the water, tribes pulled their boat to two stations of five small cubes on each. Once their boat was hooked at shore, one tribe member brought those cubes across a balance beam in two trips, while the remaining six worked together to transport ten larger cubes across parallel and uneven beams. The seven members then worked together to individually stack the twenty cubes into a high tower. The first tribe to complete their tower won immunity and a fruit reward.
Kele won. Rizo followed his clue to an idol. Sophi was brought into the majority alliance of members of the old Uli tribe, and they debated whether to target Jason or Matt. Meanwhile, Matt tried to gain traction for a move against Nate. At Tribal Council, while Savannah and Sophi voted for Jason, the remaining members of the majority alliance and Jason voted out Matt.

Kele won. Rizo followed his clue to an idol. Sophi was brought into the majority alliance of members of the old Uli tribe, and they debated whether to target Jason or Matt. Meanwhile, Matt tried to gain traction for a move against Nate. At Tribal Council, while Savannah and Sophi voted for Jason, the remaining members of the majority alliance and Jason voted out Matt.

On day 8, the tribes were reshuffled and Uli was disbanded. Sophi from Kele and Jawan, Nate, Rizo, and Savannah from Uli joined Jason and Matt at Hina. Kristina, MC, Sophie, and Steven from Hina and Sage and Shannon from Uli joined Alex at Kele.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Starting in the water, tribes pulled their boat to two stations of five small cubes on each. Once their boat was hooked at shore, one tribe member brought those cubes across a balance beam in two trips, while the remaining six worked together to transport ten larger cubes across parallel and uneven beams. The seven members then worked together to individually stack the twenty cubes into a high tower. The first tribe to complete their tower won immunity and a fruit reward.

At Kele, Sage began working against Shannon and also told her tribemates that Rizo found Uli's beware advantage. MC and Nate were chosen for a journey.
Journey: MC and Nate had to work together to move a large pile of sandbags before a timer ran out. If successful, each kept their vote at the next Tribal Council. If they failed, both lost their vote. Halfway through the pile, they discovered another note. Hidden nearby under a rock lay an advantage. The first to find it kept their vote while the other had to finish the task alone before the timer ran out to keep their vote. However, the advantage dies if the timer runs out or the sandbag task is completed before the advantage is found.
They decided to complete the task together, thus keeping their votes and nullifying the advantage.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes swam to a bamboo cage where they climbed up and jumped in the cage. They then carried the cage out of the water and up the beach to a series of three baskets where one player would dig out from under the cage and retrieve missed balls the others shot at the baskets. The first tribe to land a ball in each of the three baskets won immunity plus three hens and a rooster.
Kele won again. Though most of the tribe agreed to vote out Jason, Savannah hoped to blindside Jawan. At Tribal Council, the tribe stayed united to vote out Jason.

On day 11, just prior to the Reward Challenge, the tribes were shuffled again. Alex, Kristina, Nate, and Sophie went to Uli. Shannon, Sage, Jawan, and Steven went to Kele. Sophi, MC, Savannah, and Rizo went to Hina.
Reward Challenge: Tribes pushed a heavy cart along a bumpy track collecting sandbags. At each of two stations along the way, one tribe member then climbed a ladder and used a long pole to knock two disks off a high perch. Once at the finish, players used one of the disks to knock over four bamboo targets. The first two tribes to finish won a food reward of grilled cheese sandwiches, chips, and iced tea for first place, and grilled cheese for second place.
Hina and Uli won. Old tribal lines put MC, Steven, and Nate in unfavorable positions on their new tribes, but Steven bonded with Jawan while Sage was ready to make a move against Shannon on Kele. Meanwhile on Hina, Sophi found a Knowledge is Power.
Immunity Challenge: Tribes raced up and over a hinged cargo net, then moved a pile of heavy sandbags stacking them onto a platform. One player then climbed on top of the pile to retrieve a bag of sticks and string used to construct an extending pole that was then used to retrieve a key. The key released a ball which was used by two players to maneuver through a tilt table maze. The first two tribes to finish won immunity.
Hina and Uli won. Shannon hoped to foster working relationships with the old Hina members in the future by targeting Jawan, but at Tribal Council, Sage's plan to blindside Shannon came to fruition.

On day 13, the three tribes convened at Kele's beach to begin the individual stage of the game. Many keys were hidden in the jungle, one of which unlocked a chest to an advantage for the forthcoming challenge; Sage earned the advantage.
Reward Challenge: Tribes dug a massive boulder out from the ground and rolled it over obstacles before one person climbed it to retrieve a machete. One teammate used the machete to chop a rope to progress to the end, where the team would climb the boulder up to the top to solve a word puzzle. The first team to finish their puzzle won the merge feast and the right to compete for individual immunity.
Sage's advantage was that she would automatically earn the merge meal and a spot in the immunity challenge. Nate, Rizo, Sophi, Sophie, and Steven won reward.
Immunity Challenge: Castaways held a pole that had a ball on top while balancing on a beam. At regular intervals, they would move to narrower sections of the beam while moving their hands further down the pole. If they fell off or their ball dropped, they were out. The last person left standing won immunity.
Sophie won immunity. MC was able to retrieve the idol from her beware advantage despite interference by Savannah. Jawan and Sage joined old Hina, and they debated whether to target Nate, Rizo, or Savannah. The Uli alliance targeted Steven. At Tribal Council, MC played her idol but negated no votes, and Nate was sent to the jury.

Kristina found an idol in front of Steven and Alex.
Immunity Challenge: Players used their hands and arms to brace against two walls with their feet on narrow footholds. At intervals, they moved down to smaller footholds. If they drop, they’re out. The twist: Players were split into two groups of five. The group that lasts the longest gets immunity and no tribal council. The losing group goes to tribal with no immunity. Additionally, the person lasting the longest earned an advantage and that group gets a reward of DIY deli sandwiches.
Savannah won the advantage with the team of Steven, Sophi, Alex, and Kristina getting reward. Her advantage was to go to the losing group during tribal and cast a vote or bank it for an extra vote. Though Rizo was the consensus target, Sophie plotted to cast a stray vote for Jawan in case Rizo played his idol. MC alerted Jawan of this, who told the others. This came back to haunt MC as she was sent to the jury, with Rizo holding onto his idol and Savannah banking her vote.

Reactions to MC going and not Sophie put the latter on high alert, and she considered flipping to the minority.
Reward Challenge: Divided into two teams of four via schoolyard pick (with one castaway not being chosen), castaways pushed a large heavy cube from the start to a station with a sandbag. One castaway climbed the cube to free the sandbag, then all team members crawled under a net. One castaway tossed the sandbag in the air to free three rings from a high pole, then they would toss those rings back onto the pole. The first team to finish won a food reward of fried chicken, french fries, and cheesecake.
Sophi was not chosen and picked the yellow team to win, but the blue team of Alex, Kristina, Savannah, and Sophie won. However, Kristina chose to give her spot to Jawan who hadn’t won a food reward up to that point. Rizo planned to target Alex, who had been playing the middle more obviously, while the majority hoped to split between Rizo and Savannah.
Immunity Challenge: Players used their feet to hold a large disc in place against a small support. If their disc dropped, they were out. The last man and woman standing won immunity.
Steven and Savannah won immunity. Sophi became the backup target for the split vote, while Rizo tried to convince Jawan and Sage to flip and vote out Alex. At Tribal Council, no advantages were played, and Jawan, Sage, and Sophie joined the minority alliance to send Alex to the jury.

Reward Challenge: Players divided into two teams of 4 by schoolyard pick. One pair on each team leapt off a high platform into the water. They then traversed a series of obstacles and retrieved a buoy with a rope attached to it. Then the second pair did the same. At the end they attached the buoys to tall poles and had to sling the buoys into a basket on top of the poles. The first team to finish won a reward of burgers, hot dogs, and chocolate cake at the Survivor Sanctuary.
Sophi, Sophie, Sage, and Steven won reward.
Immunity Challenge: Players raced into a Survivor teeter tunnel, then maneuvered disks around an obstacle to release a handle. The handle was then used to transport puzzle pieces over a teeter totter balance beam. Once all the pieces were collected, they were used to assemble a logo puzzle.
Sophie won immunity. She joined Rizo’s alliance while Jawan and Sage flipped back to Kristina and Steven. Savannah planned to use her extra vote to break the stalemate and changed the target from Steven to Sage, but Sophie convinced her to target Jawan instead.

Sage was upset at being left out of Jawan’s blindside and lashed out at Sophie. Steven was selected for a journey.
Journey: Steven had to navigate around the shore of an island searching for numbers that would provide the solution to a lock combination. If he unlocked the chest before the high tide made an advantage unreachable, he would win a Block-a-Vote. He was able to complete the task in time.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Castaways had to stack blocks spelling "immunity" on a revolving table. If their letters dropped, they had to start over. The first person to finish and stand on the starting platform for three seconds won immunity plus a spaghetti reward.
Steven won immunity and chose to share reward with Kristina and Rizo. Sage was adamant that Sophie should go next, but Sophi considered flipping on her allies Rizo and Savannah. At Tribal Council, no advantages were played, and Sophie was unanimously sent to the jury.

Reward Challenge: Castaways had to traverse a highstep obstacle, then maneuver a bag on a rope through a ladder bridge, then crawl under another obstacle and retrieve two more bags. Once they had all three bags, they needed to land a sandbag on a small high perch. The first to do this won Mexican food at the sanctuary and their letters from home.
Savannah won reward and chose to share it with Rizo and Sophi. Both alliances regrouped with Steven and Sophi revealing their advantages to their allies. Mulling flipping on her longtime allies, Sophi decided to stick with them.
Immunity Challenge: Castaways used their foot to balance a ball at the end of a beam. If their ball dropped, they were out. The last one standing won immunity.
Savannah won her third immunity necklace. Sophi hoped to use her advantage to steal Steven's, but unbeknownst to her, he could only play it before Tribal whereas she could only play hers at Tribal. Steven declared he would block Savannah's vote. At Tribal Council, Sophi's advantage was nullified, and Rizo again kept his idol after initially getting ready to play it for himself. The idol was not needed as Sage and Kristina turned on Steven as a big threat, sending him to the jury.

Steven declared he would block Savannah's vote. At Tribal Council, Sophi's advantage was nullified, and Rizo again kept his idol after initially getting ready to play it for himself. The idol was not needed as Sage and Kristina turned on Steven as a big threat, sending him to the jury.

On day 24, castaways were tasked with finding an advantage in the upcoming immunity challenge; Sophi earned the advantage.
Advantage Scramble: Survivors raced through the jungle collecting pieces to a puzzle map showing the location of a hidden advantage to be used in the next challenge. Sophi was the first to finish her puzzle. After much searching, she spotted a bag high up in a tree. Using a bamboo pole, she retrieved the bag thus winning the advantage.
Reward/Immunity Challenge: Survivors crawled through a muddy pit, then dug up a grappling hook. They used the hook to drop a ladder and climbed up into a crows nest to retrieve a rope. Using the rope, they had to walk on a barrel rolling it along a sandy pathway to a tall platform where they maneuvered a bag of puzzle pieces to the top and then solved a Survivor puzzle. The first to complete their puzzle won reward and immunity.
Savannah won her fourth immunity challenge, tying the women's record. She chose to share her reward with Sage. The vote came down to majority alliance outsiders Kristina and Sage. At Tribal, Rizo played his idol, and Kristina was sent to the jury.
Immunity Challenge: Contestants leapt into the ocean and made their way to shore where they dug under a log and crawled through. They then traversed a balance beam collecting two handles and a ball along the way. Then they used the handles to collect a second ball from a wire cage. They then assembled a table track and maneuvered the balls along it landing them in separate targets. First to finish won immunity.
Sophi came from behind to win her first immunity challenge. She ultimately decided to take Sage to the end, forcing longtime allies Rizo and Savannah to battle it out in fire.
Firemaking Challenge: Savannah easily defeated Rizo, sending him to the jury.
At the Final Tribal Council, the jury voted Savannah the sole survivor in a 5-2-1 vote, with Sophi receiving MC & Kristina's votes to place second and Sage receiving Jawan's vote to place third.

| 702 | 1 | "Act One of a Horror Film" | 0.6/9 | September 24, 2025 (2025-09-24) | 4.03 | |
| The 18 new castaways arrived in Fiji by boat to begin their Survivor journey. Marooning Challenge: Two tribe members raced into the jungle for crates. Two other tribe members then retrieved a boat full of crates from the ocean. The last two members assembled the crates to make a cube, which one tribe member would climb to ring a bell hanging above them. The first to ring the bell won flint, a pot, and a machete for their tribe. The two losing tribes would have to send a tribe member away to complete another challenge to earn their supplies. Hina won the reward challenge. Uli sent Rizo to complete the supply challenge, while Kele sent Alex. Supply Challenge: Each castaway must retrieve ten marked coconuts on a small peninsula, each containing multiple puzzle pieces. Once all coconuts are collected, they must use the pieces to assemble a map revealing the location of a buried ship wheel; each tribe had its own wheel in a different location on the peninsula. Using the wheel, they must raise their tribe's sail, which releases a key to the chest containing the supplies. The first to unlock the chest wins the supplies for their tribe. Rizo completed the challenge first, winning supplies for Uli. Immunity Challenge: Each tribe was split into three pairs. Each pair in turn navigated a rope tunnel, crawled through a muddy pit, then raced into the jungle to retrieve a large serpent. When all three serpents were retrieved, three players worked together to navigate a ball along a winding snake track. The first two tribes to finish won immunity. Hina and Uli won the challenge. At Kele, the majority alliance of Alex, Jake, Jeremiah, and Sophi targeted outsiders Annie and Nicole, considering them the weakest members of the tribe physically, Nicole in particular. Annie attempted to form an alliance with Sophi, saying that she wanted to target Alex and Jake in the future. Sophi notified the majority alliance of Annie's proposal, and they considered voting Annie out over Nicole because of this. However, at Tribal Council, they ultimately chose to vote out Nicole. | ||||||
| 703 | 2 | "Cinema" | 0.6/8 | October 1, 2025 (2025-10-01) | 4.03 | |
| At Kele, Alex and Jake found a beware advantage, and the majority alliance affirmed their plan to target Annie next. At Hina, Matt invited MC into his alliance with Kristina and Steven, but a distrustful MC alerted Sophie of this. At Uli, Jawan was on the outs and further strained his relationship with Savannah by unknowingly taking her bag and dumping its contents to fill it with firewood. Jake, Jawan, and Matt were chosen for a journey. Journey: Players tossed coconuts in their opponents’ bags, causing them to eventually drop from the weight. The last person left standing won. Jawan won and had a choice between stealing Jake or Matt’s next vote or imposing a disadvantage on Hina or Kele at the next challenge. He chose the latter. Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes traversed an obstacle course and dug a ladder out, holding it up for one member to retrieve a key. The key unlocked a ramp to a large puzzle. The first two tribes to complete their puzzle won immunity plus a large fishing kit for first place and a smaller fishing kit for second place. After learning the disadvantage would be for each tribe member to carry twenty pounds of coconuts through the obstacle course and to work through ten keys instead of one, Jawan chose to penalize Hina. In spite of the penalties, Hina placed first and Uli placed second after Kele’s massive lead was blown at the puzzle. At Kele, Alex found an idol and told everyone, including Annie, who Alex had tried to secretly align with. He considered voting out Sophi over Annie, but at Tribal Council, everyone stuck to the original plan to vote out Annie. | ||||||
| 704 | 3 | "Loveable Losers" | 0.6/9 | October 8, 2025 (2025-10-08) | 4.23 | |
| At Kele, on the morning of the Immunity Challenge, Jake was bitten by a sea krait. He was immediately taken to Base Camp, where the medical staff treated him. While the bite was determined to be non-venomous, the medical staff refused to clear him to return to the game, given the conditions at Kele and the inability to monitor his condition. (Unusually, significant portions of Jake's treatment at Base Camp were shown on-camera; moreover, Alex showed that each tribe receives a binder depicting animals and plants to avoid.) Immunity Challenge: One tribe member from each tribe raced to the top of a tower and leapt into the ocean. They then crossed a survivor water totter, retrieved a key, made their way across a series of floating platforms, and swam to the end. Then the next two players went. Once everyone was at the end, two players unlocked and solved a survivor turtle puzzle. The first two tribes to finish won immunity. Hina and Uli won yet again. MC and Rizo found Hina and Uli's respective beware advantages. Sophi and Jeremiah plotted to blindside Alex by making him feel comfortable enough to not play his idol, but when Sophi overheard Alex tell Jeremiah he was considering voting Sophi to save himself, Sophi considered voting Jeremiah instead. At Tribal Council, Alex played his idol and Jeremiah was voted out. | ||||||
| 705 | 4 | "Go Kick Rocks, Bro" | 0.6/9 | October 15, 2025 (2025-10-15) | 4.27 | |
| On day 8, the tribes were reshuffled and Uli was disbanded. Sophi from Kele and Jawan, Nate, Rizo, and Savannah from Uli joined Jason and Matt at Hina. Kristina, MC, Sophie, and Steven from Hina and Sage and Shannon from Uli joined Alex at Kele. Reward/Immunity Challenge: Starting in the water, tribes pulled their boat to two stations of five small cubes on each. Once their boat was hooked at shore, one tribe member brought those cubes across a balance beam in two trips, while the remaining six worked together to transport ten larger cubes across parallel and uneven beams. The seven members then worked together to individually stack the twenty cubes into a high tower. The first tribe to complete their tower won immunity and a fruit reward. Kele won. Rizo followed his clue to an idol. Sophi was brought into the majority alliance of members of the old Uli tribe, and they debated whether to target Jason or Matt. Meanwhile, Matt tried to gain traction for a move against Nate. At Tribal Council, while Savannah and Sophi voted for Jason, the remaining members of the majority alliance and Jason voted out Matt. | ||||||
| 706 | 5 | "I'm a Wolf, Baby" | 0.7/9 | October 22, 2025 (2025-10-22) | 4.36 | |
| At Kele, Sage began working against Shannon and also told her tribemates that Rizo found Uli's beware advantage. MC and Nate were chosen for a journey. Journey: MC and Nate had to work together to move a large pile of sandbags before a timer ran out. If successful, each kept their vote at the next Tribal Council. If they failed, both lost their vote. Halfway through the pile, they discovered another note. Hidden nearby under a rock lay an advantage. The first to find it kept their vote while the other had to finish the task alone before the timer ran out to keep their vote. However, the advantage dies if the timer runs out or the sandbag task is completed before the advantage is found. They decided to complete the task together, thus keeping their votes and nullifying the advantage. Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes swam to a bamboo cage where they climbed up and jumped in the cage. They then carried the cage out of the water and up the beach to a series of three baskets where one player would dig out from under the cage and retrieve missed balls the others shot at the baskets. The first tribe to land a ball in each of the three baskets won immunity plus three hens and a rooster. Kele won again. Though most of the tribe agreed to vote out Jason, Savannah hoped to blindside Jawan. At Tribal Council, the tribe stayed united to vote out Jason. | ||||||
| 707 | 6 | "The Devil's Shoes" | 0.6/8 | October 29, 2025 (2025-10-29) | 4.25 | |
| On day 11, just prior to the Reward Challenge, the tribes were shuffled again. Alex, Kristina, Nate, and Sophie went to Uli. Shannon, Sage, Jawan, and Steven went to Kele. Sophi, MC, Savannah, and Rizo went to Hina. Reward Challenge: Tribes pushed a heavy cart along a bumpy track collecting sandbags. At each of two stations along the way, one tribe member then climbed a ladder and used a long pole to knock two disks off a high perch. Once at the finish, players used one of the disks to knock over four bamboo targets. The first two tribes to finish won a food reward of grilled cheese sandwiches, chips, and iced tea for first place, and grilled cheese for second place. Hina and Uli won. Old tribal lines put MC, Steven, and Nate in unfavorable positions on their new tribes, but Steven bonded with Jawan while Sage was ready to make a move against Shannon on Kele. Meanwhile on Hina, Sophi found a Knowledge is Power. Immunity Challenge: Tribes raced up and over a hinged cargo net, then moved a pile of heavy sandbags stacking them onto a platform. One player then climbed on top of the pile to retrieve a bag of sticks and string used to construct an extending pole that was then used to retrieve a key. The key released a ball which was used by two players to maneuver through a tilt table maze. The first two tribes to finish won immunity. Hina and Uli won. Shannon hoped to foster working relationships with the old Hina members in the future by targeting Jawan, but at Tribal Council, Sage's plan to blindside Shannon came to fruition. | ||||||
| 708 | 7 | "Blood Will Be Drawn" | 0.6/9 | November 5, 2025 (2025-11-05) | 4.37 | |
| On day 13, the three tribes convened at Kele's beach to begin the individual stage of the game. Many keys were hidden in the jungle, one of which unlocked a chest to an advantage for the forthcoming challenge; Sage earned the advantage. Reward Challenge: Tribes dug a massive boulder out from the ground and rolled it over obstacles before one person climbed it to retrieve a machete. One teammate used the machete to chop a rope to progress to the end, where the team would climb the boulder up to the top to solve a word puzzle. The first team to finish their puzzle won the merge feast and the right to compete for individual immunity. Sage's advantage was that she would automatically earn the merge meal and a spot in the immunity challenge. Nate, Rizo, Sophi, Sophie, and Steven won reward. Immunity Challenge: Castaways held a pole that had a ball on top while balancing on a beam. At regular intervals, they would move to narrower sections of the beam while moving their hands further down the pole. If they fell off or their ball dropped, they were out. The last person left standing won immunity. Sophie won immunity. MC was able to retrieve the idol from her beware advantage despite interference by Savannah. Jawan and Sage joined old Hina, and they debated whether to target Nate, Rizo, or Savannah. The Uli alliance targeted Steven. At Tribal Council, MC played her idol but negated no votes, and Nate was sent to the jury. | ||||||
| 709 | 8 | "Hot Grim Reaper" | 0.5/8 | November 12, 2025 (2025-11-12) | 3.90 | |
| Kristina found an idol in front of Steven and Alex. Immunity Challenge: Players used their hands and arms to brace against two walls with their feet on narrow footholds. At intervals, they moved down to smaller footholds. If they drop, they’re out. The twist: Players were split into two groups of five. The group that lasts the longest gets immunity and no tribal council. The losing group goes to tribal with no immunity. Additionally, the person lasting the longest earned an advantage and that group gets a reward of DIY deli sandwiches. Savannah won the advantage with the team of Steven, Sophi, Alex, and Kristina getting reward. Her advantage was to go to the losing group during tribal and cast a vote or bank it for an extra vote. Though Rizo was the consensus target, Sophie plotted to cast a stray vote for Jawan in case Rizo played his idol. MC alerted Jawan of this, who told the others. This came back to haunt MC as she was sent to the jury, with Rizo holding onto his idol and Savannah banking her vote. | ||||||
| 710 | 9 | "If You're Loyal to All, You're Loyal to None" | 0.6/9 | November 19, 2025 (2025-11-19) | 4.17 | |
| Reactions to MC going and not Sophie put the latter on high alert, and she considered flipping to the minority. Reward Challenge: Divided into two teams of four via schoolyard pick (with one castaway not being chosen), castaways pushed a large heavy cube from the start to a station with a sandbag. One castaway climbed the cube to free the sandbag, then all team members crawled under a net. One castaway tossed the sandbag in the air to free three rings from a high pole, then they would toss those rings back onto the pole. The first team to finish won a food reward of fried chicken, french fries, and cheesecake. Sophi was not chosen and picked the yellow team to win, but the blue team of Alex, Kristina, Savannah, and Sophie won. However, Kristina chose to give her spot to Jawan who hadn’t won a food reward up to that point. Rizo planned to target Alex, who had been playing the middle more obviously, while the majority hoped to split between Rizo and Savannah. Immunity Challenge: Players used their feet to hold a large disc in place against a small support. If their disc dropped, they were out. The last man and woman standing won immunity. Steven and Savannah won immunity. Sophi became the backup target for the split vote, while Rizo tried to convince Jawan and Sage to flip and vote out Alex. At Tribal Council, no advantages were played, and Jawan, Sage, and Sophie joined the minority alliance to send Alex to the jury. | ||||||
| 711 | 10 | "Huge Dose of Bamboozle" | 0.6/9 | November 26, 2025 (2025-11-26) | 4.25 | |
| Reward Challenge: Players divided into two teams of 4 by schoolyard pick. One pair on each team leapt off a high platform into the water. They then traversed a series of obstacles and retrieved a buoy with a rope attached to it. Then the second pair did the same. At the end they attached the buoys to tall poles and had to sling the buoys into a basket on top of the poles. The first team to finish won a reward of burgers, hot dogs, and chocolate cake at the Survivor Sanctuary. Sophi, Sophie, Sage, and Steven won reward. Immunity Challenge: Players raced into a Survivor teeter tunnel, then maneuvered disks around an obstacle to release a handle. The handle was then used to transport puzzle pieces over a teeter totter balance beam. Once all the pieces were collected, they were used to assemble a logo puzzle. Sophie won immunity. She joined Rizo’s alliance while Jawan and Sage flipped back to Kristina and Steven. Savannah planned to use her extra vote to break the stalemate and changed the target from Steven to Sage, but Sophie convinced her to target Jawan instead. At Tribal Council, Kristina played her idol on Steven while Rizo played a fake on Savannah, and Jawan was sent to the jury. | ||||||
| 712 | 11 | "Cherry On Top" | 0.6/10 | December 3, 2025 (2025-12-03) | 4.41 | |
| Sage was upset at being left out of Jawan’s blindside and lashed out at Sophie. Steven was selected for a journey. Journey: Steven had to navigate around the shore of an island searching for numbers that would provide the solution to a lock combination. If he unlocked the chest before the high tide made an advantage unreachable, he would win a Block-a-Vote. He was able to complete the task in time. Reward/Immunity Challenge: Castaways had to stack blocks spelling "immunity" on a revolving table. If their letters dropped, they had to start over. The first person to finish and stand on the starting platform for three seconds won immunity plus a spaghetti reward. Steven won immunity and chose to share reward with Kristina and Rizo. Sage was adamant that Sophie should go next, but Sophi considered flipping on her allies Rizo and Savannah. At Tribal Council, no advantages were played, and Sophie was unanimously sent to the jury. | ||||||
| 713 | 12 | "The Die Is Cast" | 0.8/13 | December 10, 2025 (2025-12-10) | 4.77 | |
| Reward Challenge: Castaways had to traverse a highstep obstacle, then maneuver a bag on a rope through a ladder bridge, then crawl under another obstacle and retrieve two more bags. Once they had all three bags, they needed to land a sandbag on a small high perch. The first to do this won Mexican food at the sanctuary and their letters from home. Savannah won reward and chose to share it with Rizo and Sophi. Both alliances regrouped with Steven and Sophi revealing their advantages to their allies. Mulling flipping on her longtime allies, Sophi decided to stick with them. Immunity Challenge: Castaways used their foot to balance a ball at the end of a beam. If their ball dropped, they were out. The last one standing won immunity. Savannah won her third immunity necklace. Sophi hoped to use her advantage to steal Steven's, but unbeknownst to her, he could only play it before Tribal whereas she could only play hers at Tribal. Steven declared he would block Savannah's vote. At Tribal Council, Sophi's advantage was nullified, and Rizo again kept his idol after initially getting ready to play it for himself. The idol was not needed as Sage and Kristina turned on Steven as a big threat, sending him to the jury. | ||||||
| 714 | 13 | "A Fever Dream" | TBA | December 17, 2025 (2025-12-17) | TBD | |
| On day 24, castaways were tasked with finding an advantage in the upcoming immunity challenge; Sophi earned the advantage. Advantage Scramble: Survivors raced through the jungle collecting pieces to a puzzle map showing the location of a hidden advantage to be used in the next challenge. Sophi was the first to finish her puzzle. After much searching, she spotted a bag high up in a tree. Using a bamboo pole, she retrieved the bag thus winning the advantage. Reward/Immunity Challenge: Survivors crawled through a muddy pit, then dug up a grappling hook. They used the hook to drop a ladder and climbed up into a crows nest to retrieve a rope. Using the rope, they had to walk on a barrel rolling it along a sandy pathway to a tall platform where they maneuvered a bag of puzzle pieces to the top and then solved a Survivor puzzle. The first to complete their puzzle won reward and immunity. Savannah won her fourth immunity challenge, tying the women's record. She chose to share her reward with Sage. The vote came down to majority alliance outsiders Kristina and Sage. At Tribal, Rizo played his idol, and Kristina was sent to the jury. Immunity Challenge: Contestants leapt into the ocean and made their way to shore where they dug under a log and crawled through. They then traversed a balance beam collecting two handles and a ball along the way. Then they used the handles to collect a second ball from a wire cage. They then assembled a table track and maneuvered the balls along it landing them in separate targets. First to finish won immunity. Sophi came from behind to win her first immunity challenge. She ultimately decided to take Sage to the end, forcing longtime allies Rizo and Savannah to battle it out in fire. Firemaking Challenge: Savannah easily defeated Rizo, sending him to the jury. At the Final Tribal Council, the jury voted Savannah the sole survivor in a 5-2-1 vote, with Sophi receiving MC & Kristina's votes to place second and Sage receiving Jawan's vote to place third. | ||||||
