Pre-game	Ep1: "May the Best Generation Win"				Ep2: "Love Goggles"
Day 0 (April 3) Pre-game preparation.	Day 1 (April 4) Opening scramble for items, Jessica finds advantage.	Day 2 (April 5) Cyclone hits, both tribes evacuated.	Day 3 (April 6) Tribes return to camps, rebuild. Filming resumes.	Day 4 (April 7) Ep.1 RC/IC: Got to Choose Both tribes must race through a crawl obstacle, retrieving eight war clubs along the way. Then they must choose: Go through a rope obstacle, or chop through a mask to make the obstacle easier. (Millenials do it straight, Gen X chooses shortcut.) Then another choice: Cross a balance beam, or chop through a second mask to make the beam wider. Finally, the tribe must use poles to carry the puzzle crate to the puzzle table, then finish either a 50-piece, 60-piece (1 shortcut taken), or 70-piece (2 shortcuts taken) puzzle. Gen X has an initial lead, puts Rachel and David on the puzzle. As Millennials catch up (with Figgy and Michelle on their puzzle), Sunday and Jessica swap in for Gen X. But it's too late, Millennials win immunity and flint. Previous: Ep.1 evacuation Next: Ep.2 idol × Ep1 RC/IC: "Got to Choose" - Millennials win. TC1 - Rachel voted out (5-3-1-1), 19 left.	Day 5 (April 8) David finds Gen X idol.	Day 6 (April 9)

Day 7 (April 10) Ep.2 RC/IC: The Ocean Hannah sits out. Five people (Chris, Paul, Sunday, David, Jessica; Michelle, Will, Michaela, Zeke, Adam) swim out, climb a net, jump, grab a key, swim and place key on the stand. Once all five keys are gathered, remaining four unlock a mask, retrieve five rings tied below the water, then toss those rings onto one of five target poles. All dive for rings. Ring toss scores: CeCe-2, Jay-2, Ken-2, Jay-1, Ken-1. Gen X wins immunity and tarp, 5-3. Previous: Ep.2 idol Next: Ep.3 summit × Ep2 RC/IC: "The Ocean" - Gen X wins. TC2 - Mari voted out (7-3), 18 left.	Day 8 (April 11) Ep.3 Survivor summit Each tribe is given a bag of rocks in treemail, in which four colored rocks will be used to select four representatives at a 'tribal mixer.' For GenX, CeCe, Chris, David, and Paul attend. For the Millennials, Figgy, Jay, Taylor, and Will go. The eight are sent to a separate island by boat, where they eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and talk. That's it. Previous: Ep.2 IC Next: Ep.3 IC × 8-person "Survivor summit." Hooray.	Day 9 (April 12)	Day 10 (April 13) Ep.3 RC/IC: Going Coconuts Five people (Adam, Michaela, Will, Figgy, Taylor; Chris, Paul, Bret, Lucy, CeCe) must haul 40-pound sacks of sandbags over obstacles then across a balance beam. Two more people (Ken, Jessica; Jay, Hannah) feed/toss sandbags at a 5x5 block grid/puzzle. Once all blocks are knocked off, the remaining two (Zeke, Michelle; David, Sunday) must rebuild the puzzle. Millennials take a huge lead on the balance beam, when CeCe slowly crosses with her own bag, while Taylor happily takes Adam's & Will's bags across by himself. Millennials have almost all the blocks knocked off before Ken even starts throwing, and easily finish the puzzle first. Jay tries to trade the reward (comfort items) for fishing gear, but Gen X decides not to allow it. Previous: Ep.3 summit Next: Ep.4 RC × Ep3 RC/IC: "Going Coconuts" - Millennials win. TC3 - Paul voted out (6-3), 17 left.	Day 11 (April 14) Ep.4 RC: Water Slaughter Michelle sits out. As in S26, but with huge waves. First tribe to 3 points wins steaks, sausages, veggies, spices.

TC4 - Lucy idoled out ([0]-2-1), 16 left.	Day 13 (April 16) David finds another idol. Ep.5 swap Both tribes are brought to an as-yet unused two-tribe challenge location. Probst tells them to drop their buffs, and that they'll be swapping into three new tribes: Vanua (orange), Takali (purple), and Ikabula (green). With sixteen players left, there is one extra person, who will go join Ikabula, because they have to build their camp from scratch. Men and women picks buffs separately, so that each tribe has three men. Previous: Ep.5 idol Next: Ep.5 IC × Tribal swap, third tribe (Ikabula) formed.
Ep5: "Idol Search Party"		Ep6: "The Truth Works Well"			Ep7: "I Will Destroy You"
Day 14 (April 17)	Day 15 (April 18) Ep.5 IC: Holy Diver Will sits out for Ikabula. Five contestants must dive, retrieve one of 5 buoys, then either lasso a hook and pull the basket closer, or immediately shoot all 5 buoys into a floating basket. First to sink all five wins, second also safe. Sunday gives up on untying her buoy, so Jay has to go back for it later. CeCe takes forever with hers, David drops his and it rolls of the other side of the dock. Michelle also gives up, Chris goes back for hers. Takali gets all five buoys to the dock before CeCe/David get 2 for Vanua. Ken lassos Takali basket as Jay returns with 5th Ikabula buoy. Michaela lassos Ikabula basket. Michaela sinks all 5 buoys for Ikabula, Ikabula wins! Ken then rapidly sinks the remaining four shots for Takali, before Vanua/Chris even get one in. Previous: Ep.5 swap Next: Ep.6 idol × Ep5 IC: "Holy Diver" - Ikabula wins, Takali second. TC5 - CeCe voted out (4-1), 15 left.	Day 16 (April 19) Ep.6 idol Jay and Will search for Ikabula's idol, Jay eventually finds a log with the green Ikabula logo painted on it, breaks it to reveal the idol. While he and Will are celebrating, Michaela walks up and finds them. (Note: Both Jay's and Michaela's confessionals about this match the Ep5 confessionals about Michaela starting Ikabula's fire. Either both happened on Day 16 [Ep.6] or both happened Day 15 [Ep.15].) Previous: Ep.5 IC Next: Ep.6 RC × Jay finds Ikabula idol (Day 15?) Ep.6 RC: Blind Faith Hannah, Bret; Jessica sit out. Callers (Jay, Michelle, Figgy) must direct three blindfolded tribemates to collect four pairs of puzzle pieces from an obstacle-strewn course. Blindfolded: Chris/David/Zeke; Ken/Taylor/Adam; Sunday/Will/Michaela. Once all puzzle pieces are retrieved, the caller must then direct one still-blindfolded person (Zeke, Michaela, Ken) to complete the puzzle. Despite a Takali lead in collecting the pieces, Vanua wins (a carb-laden pastry and cookies feast), Ikabula is second, wins cookies. Previous: Ep.6 idol Next: Ep.6 IC × Ep6 RC: "Blind Faith" - Vanua wins, Ikabula second.	Day 17 (April 20)	Day 18 (April 21) Ep.6 IC: In the Bag Sunday, Will; Adam sit out. Two bag collectors (David, Chris; Ken, Taylor; Jay, Bret) must wade out, cross a balance beam, climb a pyramidal tower, untie three heavy bags (each), then haul them in to shore. Once all six are in, they hang them on hooks, and the remaining table maze people (Michaela, Hannah; Jessica, Figgy; Michelle, Zeke) empty the bags, finding three cue balls. They must then roll all three through a table maze to holes at the end. Ikabula wins. Vanua second, barely. Takali loses again. Previous: Ep.6 RC Next: Ep.7 RC × Ep6 IC: "In the Bag" - Ikabula wins, Vanua second. TC6 - Figgy voted out (3-2), 14 left.	Day 19 (April 22) Ep.7 RC: Matt Finish Bret, Sunday sit out.

Day 35 (May 8) Final 7 IC: Pinball Wizard Contestants must roll a ball up a 'pinball table' with nails sticking out of it (as bumpers), and while the ball is rolling down, complete a puzzle. If the contestant catches the ball before it exits the table, they can roll it back up and continue. If it drops onto the track below, they must wait for it to slowly roll all the way to the bottom before continuing on their puzzle. David, Jay, and Ken initially lead on puzzle. Ken thinks he's solved it, is wrong. He continues, and Adam drops out to watch Ken's ball, ensuring David and Jay don't win. Eventually, Ken does. Previous: Final 8 IC Next: Final 6 IC × Ep13 F7 IC: "Pinball Wizard" - Ken wins. TC14 - Sunday voted out (4-2-[0]), 6 left.	Day 36 (May 9) Final 6 IC: Tower of Power Contestants must cross a series of obstacles, retrieve a bag of tiles, use numbers on those tiles to solve a combo lock. This releases a key, which they take under a net, then climb up to a platform, unlocking puzzle pieces, then finally solving a hanging bat puzzle. Jay is first to the puzzle, but leaves his combo uncovered, allowing everyone else to copy his answer and catch up. David wins. Previous: Final 7 IC Next: Final 5 IC × Ep14 F6 IC: "Tower of Power" - David wins. TC15 - Jay voted out (5-[0]), 5 left.	Day 37 (May 10) Final 5 IC: Draw the Line Starting in the water, contestants must move a buoy along a rope to the shore, then grab tiles between two handles, cross a teeter totter, and move all the tiles to puzzle table, where they then solve a word puzzle. Ken wins. Adam has all but the final word (NOT A PARTICIPATION TROPHY). Ken first, Adam second, rest tied for third. Previous: Final 6 IC Next: Final 5 idol × Ep14 F5 IC: "Draw the Line" - Ken wins. Adam finds another idol. TC16 - Bret voted out (3-2), 4 left.	Day 38 (May 11) Final 4 IC: Operation Balance Build Stacking bowls after moving them through a vertical wire maze on a spring, as in the F4 IC from One World. First to successfully stack 13 bowls, or whoever has the most after 30 minutes, wins. David, Hannah, Ken, then Adam all drop their stack as Ken gets to 12 bowls. All start over. As times expires, Hannah & Ken have 10, Adam 8, David 7. (Ken was going for #11). Then there is a 5-minute playoff between Hannah and Ken. Ken wins, 7-6. Previous: Final 5 idol Next: Final Tribal Council × Ep14 F4 IC: "Operation Balance Build" - Ken wins. TC17 - David voted out (3-1), 3 left.
