Day 1
(April 4)
Ep.1 arrival scramble
All 20 contestants are transported in by boat, then split
up by age: Millennials vs. Gen X. Then they have two
minutes to race into the jungle and grab supplies they
might need. Each tribe must choose one of: Chickens vs.
fishing gear. Millennials take chickens, Gen X fishing
gear. Jessica finds the Legacy Advantage.

Ep.1 evacuation
As a cyclone bears down on the Mamanuca Islands (in
Fiji), Probst sends each tribe a tarp. Then shows up a few
hours later to evacuate both tribes. They spend the night
at base camp, with the cameras off, and return the next
morning.

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.

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.

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

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.

Both tribes are brought to an as-yet unused two-tribe

(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.

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
