Episode 1: Genders are so Overrated
The 20 castaways sailed to the beach to meet Jeff who would inform them that this season they would be divided only by gender and that the first reward challenge would take place immediately. They had to sail down the river to find a sign marked location with a map, the first team to reach the map would get a ready made camp, while the other would have to build a camp from scratch. The race was initially tight until the men realised that if more people exit the boat and swim to the map the faster the boat can reach it however Jeff stated that all members must reach the map to win it, the women were catching up and all but Sai had caught up with the boat leaving the women to win reward. At the women's camp LeShawna, Dominique, Billie and Skylar formed an alliance of the "strong women" while Billie also made an alliance with Karen and Lauren. At the men's camp it became bitchy as the men with alpha male Nathan being the instigator with the help of his back up men, began to talk smack about Sai however Sai began working on a counter alliance with Azri, Cleo, Spencer and Bob. When it came to the challenge the women won again. Nathan's side began to prey on Sai who they thought should be taken out due to the fact that he was weak in challenge however Sai planned to blindside Nathan with his newly formed alliance. Ultimately though most of the men flipped on Sai and chose they needed challenge wins at this stage of the game.

At the immunity challenge the women won yet again sending the men back to tribal council. Nathan contemplated voting for Spencer as he saw him as dead weight around camp and addressed this to Cleo who informed Spencer.
