The 18 new castaways began their adventure.
Gata won the challenge. Aysha from Lavo and TK from Tuku were appointed to earn supplies a different way, which was to find four keys scattered across the island; TK earned the supplies for Tuku. At Gata, Andy's aggressive attempts to bond with Jon and Rachel were met with skepticism, leaving him feeling alienated, while Jon worried the age gap between himself and the rest of the tribe made him a target. At Lavo, Rome immediately searched for an advantage, but the time away from his tribemates aroused suspicion, though he was able to find the Beware Advantage clue. At Tuku, Gabe likewise found a Beware Advantage and followed the clues to an idol good for his next three Tribals. He also approached Sue for an alliance, and she in turn bonded with Caroline.
Lavo cruised to first place and Tuku placed second. Andy needed medical for heat exhaustion, then had a paranoia-induced meltdown. This made him a quick target, but Jon targeted Anika, wanting to make a bigger move. He relayed this to Sam, who felt threatened by Jon's strategic chops. The women debated if Andy's physical advantage over Jon outweighed his erratic personality. At Tribal Council, the vote went unanimously against Jon, and he became the first person voted out. | ||||||

At Gata, the tribe made a point of coddling Andy to stop him searching for an idol. Accidentally left alone, Andy found the Beware Advantage but chose to leave it. A worried Sam and Anika found it on their own; Sam waited to dig up the idol box with Sierra and kept the idol good for only one Tribal. Realizing the Advantage was gone, a panicking Andy confided in Sam, who let him think one of the women had found it. Sierra was surprised by Sam's wanting to keep Andy around, but kept silent. At Lavo, Rome's arrogance got on his tribe's nerves, particularly Sol's. Rome found the Beware Advantage and shared with Teeny, who divulged it to Kishan. Rome caught them holding the idol box, but Teeny managed to talk her way out and Rome kept the idol good for a single Tribal. At Tuku, TK aligned with Kyle and Tiyana, but earned Sue's ire for talking nonstop while she was trying to nap on the beach.
Gata and Lavo won the challenge, though Rachel was caught pocketing some of the rice. TK's disgust with Tuku's attitude regarding losing struck a nerve with Tiyana and Sue, and Gabe recruited Sue and Caroline to blindside TK. Despite her anger Tiyana was conflicted about blindsiding Kyle, but at Tribal Council, she joined Caroline, Gabe, and Sue in voting out TK, while Gabe wasted his idol on himself. | ||||||
677 | 3 | "Belly of the Beast" | 0.6/8 [14] | October 2, 2024 | 4.34 [14] | |
Gabe attempted to turn Kyle against Tiyana, leaving him uneasy; he told the girls that Gabe planned to take Sue and Caroline to the end as goats, but Sue, furious at Kyle for voting against her, ignored him. At Gata, Sam and Anika clashed over shelter improvements, and Andy loaned his Shot in the Dark to Sierra to build trust and a majority. At Lavo, Rome caught fish but, feeling unappreciated, ate most of them himself, to the tribe's chagrin. Anika, Kyle, and Rome went on a journey where they all divulged tribe dynamics. Each had to take a 1-in-3 chance for an advantage with two scrolls saying "lose your vote"; Kyle and Anika each lost one vote and chose not to risk further, but Rome won a steal-a-vote.
Gata and Tuku won the challenge. Teeny and Kishan found themselves stuck between the pairings of Genevieve-Rome and Aysha-Sol. Aysha's refusal to vote for anyone other than Genevieve convinced Teeny and Kishan to turn against her. At Tribal Council, Rome played his idol to negate one vote, and Aysha was voted out. | ||||||
678 | 4 | "Is That Blood in Your Hair" | 0.7/7 [15] | October 9, 2024 | 4.14 [15] | |
With Sol on the bottom of Lavo, Rome considered using his steal-a-vote to cancel out Sol's Shot in the Dark. He later followed Sol around camp to prevent him from searching for an idol, much to the latter's chagrin. At Gata, Sierra was caught between the alliances of Anika-Rachel and Andy-Sam, although Andy's clumsiness continued to annoy her. At Tuku, Sue found an idol but the resulting mess of red paint made Tiyana suspicious.
Despite a huge early lead, Lavo completely failed the puzzle and lost the challenge. Andy, Caroline, and Teeny were chosen for a journey, where they had to agree within a time limit on one person sacrificing their vote to earn a shared advantage, otherwise all three would lose their vote. Teeny did so, and the three earned an amulet idol, which could only be used when all three were part of the same tribe. At Lavo, Rome gave Sol an "ultimatum": give up his Shot in the Dark or Rome would use his steal-a-vote against Sol and vote him out; Sol angrily refused to be threatened. However, Genevieve learned that Kishan had thrown her name out as a decoy to Rome, hoping to vote him out instead, and convinced Rome and Sol to form a truce. At Tribal Council, Rome stole Kishan's vote, and Genevieve, Rome, and Sol joined forces to blindside Kishan, much to Teeny's shock. | ||||||
679 | 5 | "The Scales Be Tippin" | 0.6/7 [16] | October 16, 2024 | 4.02 [16] | |
Rome expressed his distrust of Teeny, knowing she'd kept quiet about Kishan’s attempt to blindside him.
Caroline, Kyle, Rachel, Sam, Sue, Teeny, and Tiyana won the challenge. While on reward, Tiyana sowed suspicion about Gabe amongst the other tribes, while Sam denied he and Sierra were in an alliance. At Lavo, Rome worked to turn Sol and Genevieve against Teeny, not expecting them to discuss his conflicting stories. Genevieve realized Rome's scheming made him too chaotic to trust, and when Teeny returned she admitted to wanting Rome gone. At Gata, a hungry Andy, Anika, and Sierra freed the chickens and made a futile attempt at fishing. At Tuku, Sue told Gabe that Tiyana threw him under the bus. Wanting to keep the peace, Caroline urged Tiyana to confess, but Gabe knew she hadn't told him the whole truth and vowed to see her voted off.
Beforehand, Gata proposed trading their chickens to Jeff for 24 eggs, who negotiated them down to 18. Tuku cruised to first place and Lavo barely came in second, regaining their flint for the first time in days. Despite his frustration with Andy's poor performance during challenges, Sam targeted Anika; Sierra was conflicted, knowing that keeping Andy benefited Sam more than her. Meanwhile, Anika and Rachel targeted Andy (despite Anika losing her vote on the last journey), but he anticipated their attempt to trick him into voting for Sam. At Tribal Council, all except Rachel blindsided a stunned Anika, and Sam chose to let his immunity idol expire rather than reveal it to Andy. | ||||||

On Day 11, the three tribes began the individual stage of the game at Tuku's beach and castaways were tasked with finding an advantage in the upcoming challenge, which Genevieve found attached to a buoy. Rome goaded Kyle into revealing which tribemates he considered threats, then told them skewed versions of what Kyle had said. A skeptical Tiyana spoke with Sol, who urged everyone to fact-check, and Kyle emphatically targeted Rome once it circled back to him, with most castaways following suit.
Genevieve's advantage allowed her to skip the immunity challenge and be part of the reward. Kyle, Rachel, Sam, Sierra, Sue, and Teeny won reward; Kyle also won individual immunity. At reward, Sue suggested targeting Andy as a backup in case Rome played an idol, which Sam reluctantly agreed to. With his initial target of Kyle foiled, Rome planted seeds to get Sol out by portraying him as a bully. Though he felt confident Sol would go, the others knew Rome was untrustworthy. Sam mentioned the backup plan to Sol, who agreed to throw his vote at Andy. At Tribal Council, Jeff humored Rome by letting him take his seat and explain why the amulet was a bad advantage. Andy, Caroline, and Teeny used their amulets on Teeny, and most of the tribe voted out a dumbfounded Rome. Afterwards, the remaining 12 castaways were officially merged. | ||||||
681 | 7 | "Our Pickle on Blast" | 0.6/6 [18] | October 30, 2024 | 4.24 [18] | |
Sol informed a rattled Andy that Sam had discussed using him as the decoy vote, and Andy aligned with Genevieve, mulling turning against Gata.
The entire Tuku tribe plus Rachel made up one group, while the Lavo three and the rest of Gata made up the other group. Kyle won immunity but was unable to outlast Genevieve and Teeny from the other group. While enjoying reward, Andy and Sol surmised an advantage would be hidden; Sol found it and discovered he could give someone from the other group either a vote blocker or safety without power. Meanwhile, Rachel pled her case to the old Tuku members, some of whom were ready to turn on each other (Tiyana and Gabe especially). At Tribal Council, Rachel played the safety without power that Sol had anonymously gifted her; Sol feigned shock to keep from being exposed. Following some last-minute strategizing, a devastated Tiyana was voted out. | ||||||
682 | 8 | "He's All That" | 0.7/8 [19] | November 6, 2024 | 4.64 [19] | |
Sol privately told Rachel he gave her the safety without power, and they aligned. The next morning, everyone was tasked with finding bamboo tubes containing money for the upcoming auction; Andy wound up with zero tubes. An item Rachel bought included a note, and Sam lost his vote due to having the most money left at the end of the auction. Rachel's note was a clue to an idol hidden in the shelter's tarp; she was able to retrieve it without being caught. Gata and Lavo agreed to align against Tuku, but Caroline tried to convince Lavo to work with her alliance against Gata instead, believing the Gata members to be more dangerous.
Sue won immunity for the women, and Kyle won his third straight necklace for the men. Lavo sided with Tuku but were unsure on who to vote out; Sol tried to save Rachel and break up the stronger pair of Sam and Sierra. Andy sided with the majority, feeling like the Gata members had been taking him for granted. At Tribal Council, Rachel played her Shot in the Dark, which was unsuccessful, and the vote was tied between Sam and Sierra. Since Sam already lost his vote, Sierra could vote in the tiebreaker but only for Sam; ultimately, Sierra was sent to the jury by everyone else that could vote. | ||||||
683 | 9 | "Nightmare Fuel" | 0.7/9 [20] | November 13, 2024 | 4.43 [20] | |
Despite being left out of the plan against Sierra, Rachel tried to mend fences with Andy, while Sam discussed a blindside on Gabe along with the Lavo three.
Gabe ultimately outlasted Kyle to win immunity. Following the challenge, Sam, Rachel, Caroline, and Andy, the first two pairs eliminated from the challenge, were sent on a journey. The four had lost their vote in the challenge but three of them could win back their vote in a game. Each of the four took turns stacking wooden cards in the form of a triangular tower until the tower fell. The person whose card caused the tower to fall did not win back their vote; Caroline brought down the tower. Back at camp, Teeny, Gabe, Kyle, and Sol enjoyed a feast of BLT sandwiches and beverages. Genevieve and Sue could not partake in the reward thus leaving them to sit back at camp and strategize together. Genevieve worked on convincing tribemates to blindside Sol, while the Gata and Lavo members tried to turn the vote onto Sue, perceiving her as the glue holding Tuku together. Genevieve told Rachel about the plan, who told Sam, who in turn told Sol. Sol told Teeny and Genevieve that they needed to follow Sam's plan to target Sue, but Teeny thought Kyle would be a better target, causing the target to flip from Sue to him. At Tribal Council, the paranoia and uncertainty surrounding whether to vote out Sol, Sue, or Kyle led to a live tribal, but a unanimous vote sent Sol to the jury. | ||||||
684 | 10 | "Loyal to the Soil" | 0.7/9 [21] | November 20, 2024 | 4.42 [21] | |
Teeny was deeply hurt upon learning that Genevieve orchestrated Sol's elimination, while Andy told Rachel that Genevieve painted her as a threat.
Kyle, Rachel, and Sam won reward. Rachel and Sam debated who to target; Rachel was keen to oust Genevieve, but Sam hoped to blindside Gabe due to his status as Tuku's strategic leader. Back at camp, Andy tried to deepen the wedge between Sue and Kyle by telling Sue that Kyle had said degrading things about her and Caroline.
Prior to the challenge, Jeff offered a bag of rice if four contestants would sit out the challenge. Caroline offered two Shots in the Dark, which Jeff refused, but Kyle offered all remaining Shots in the Dark. Gabe talked a reluctant Sam into agreeing after everyone else did so. Kyle won his fourth immunity necklace, thwarting Sue's plan to oust him. The vote came down to Gabe or Genevieve for their status as threats, and Caroline mulled turning against her day one ally. At Tribal Council, all but Sue sent Gabe to the jury. | ||||||
