Episode 1: BvBvBvB
12 castaways are met by JB at the beach, and they all believe they are on the same tribe. However, JB reveals that is not the case and that this season will pit Brains against Brawns against Beauties against Bringbacks, 4 veterans of the game. JB reveals the veterans are Claire from Rookies vs. Veterans, Jared from Portugal, Julian from Aitutaki, and Maddie from the Cooks. They are all excited and they are divided into their tribes of Brains, Brawn, and Beauty. At the Brain camp, Andy, Guy, Luhan, and Venus all seem to get along well and they build a good shelter. On the Beauty tribe, Jim self-designates himself as leader, annoying Felicity, and the two set a target on each other's back. On the Brawn tribe, Blaine & Gervase bond immediately and they promise each other final 2. Blaine is gung-ho, but Gervase finds Blaine to be slightly sketchy. The women also bond, but no alliance is made between the two of them. At the Bringback camp, they find it surreal to be back on the island. Maddie found it slightly intimidating to be on a tribe with people she fully respected, and knew that she would have to play hard in order to win. Claire ostracized herself from the group and became a quick target for the others. At the immunity challenge, Brawns, Brains, and Bringbacks all claimed immunity, sending the Beauties to tribal council. Back at camp, Jim & Felicity were on the chopping block, and Daniel & Zoe-Maria decided to side with Jim and send Felicity home.

Episode 2: I Can't Believe They Brought You Back!
Back at camp, Jim was happy that Felicity was gone, but Daniel & Zoe-Maria knew he would be the next to go. At the Bringback camp, a conflict escalated between Julian & Claire over her work ethic, putting Claire farther on the outside. At the Brawn camp, Blaine & Gervase wanted to bring in a third link, and they chose Serena. Serena was on board, putting Lauren at the bottom of the totem pole. On the Brain tribe, Andy offered Guy, Luhan, and Venus each a final 2 deal, to ensure all of their trust. At the immunity challenge, the results were stunning as the Bringbacks lost, meaning they would have to vote somebody out. Back at camp, Claire tried to play her final card, saying that Julian would be tough to beat if you let him go too far. Jared & Maddie were considering the blindside, but in the end, they stuck with the original plan to vote out Claire. Back at camp, the Bringbacks made a pact to never lose as a tribe again, now that their weakest link was out of the picture. At the Brain camp, Luhan & Venus compared notes and realized that Andy was playing all sides. They approached Guy, and Andy soon became the last man at the totem pole on the Brain tribe. At the Beauty camp, Daniel and Zoe-Maria realized they had both dated the same woman, a bisexual woman named Rena. After knowing that they had a girlfriend in common, they agreed to go to the final two, calling themselves the Rena alliance. At the Brawn camp, food was running out, and the Brawns were hungry and desperate for a reward. They won reward, fishing gear, and were able to get back to camp with filled stomachs. At the immunity challenge, the Brawns, Bringbacks, and Brains collected immunity, sending the Beauties to tribal council again. At tribal council, the Rena alliance stayed intact, and Jim was sent home.

The Bringbacks won pillows, blankets, and a hammock for their camp. The Bringbacks were living it up back at camp. Jared was talking to Maddie about game and they both agreed that Julian was a good enough player to go far if he didn't get out soon, and they agreed that he would be the next target. At the Brawn camp, Lauren started flirting with Blaine, and it waved a caution flag for Gervase, wondering if the alliance he was in was legitimate. At the Brain camp, Luhan & Venus thought they would call Andy out for his lies. Andy was called out, and Andy admitted to his lies, meaning immunity for him was now more important than ever. However, the Bringbacks, Brawns, and Beauties won immunity, and Andy was voted out at tribal council.

Episode 4: Sumo Time
Back at camp, Guy was worried about his position in the tribe as he saw Venus & Luhan's close relationship. However, on Day 13, his game changed when the four tribes became two. Here are the new tribes:
After the tribes swapped, JB announced that an immunity idol was planted at each camp. and he announced an impromptu, sumo-themed immunity challenge. The fights were brutal, but in the end, Tolupan came out with immunity. Back at Lencas, Blaine wanted Jared out because he was a returning player, but Guy had second thoughts. He capitalized on the swap, making himself an alliance of four with Jared, fellow Brain Luhan, and Zoe-Maria against the Brawns. Wanting to keep Blaine for challenges, they decided to blinside Serena, sending her home in tears.

Episode 5: Work Together
After Serena was voted out, Blaine was crushed and knew he would be the next to go if Lencas were to return to tribal council. Early the next morning, he went for a water run, and to search for the hidden immunity idol. And he was successful in his search, finding it right near treemail. At Tolupan, Daniel felt alone as the only Beauty, and Venus felt alone as the only Brain. They agreed to team up and align themselves with Gervase & Lauren to take out the Bringbacks, with Julian as their first target. At the reward challenge, Lencas won a trip to zipline through the jungle. Back at Tolupan, Julian & Maddie began feeling worried about people targeting them. Maddie was told by Venus & Lauren that Julian was the target, and Maddie told them she was on board. Julian began frantically searching for the idol, but was unsuccessful. Immunity was important, but JB announced another twist. There would either be a double tribal council or no tribal council that evening. The two tribes would have to work together to complete a challenge in order to win immunity for both tribes. In the end, the tribes were successful and they saved everyone for tribal council. The next day, the tribes participated in the pre-merge auction, where Lencas won an advantage in the immunity challenge, and Tolupan won a clue to their hidden immunity idol. Back at camp, everyone began searching for the idol, and Julian secretly found it, keeping it a secret from the others. The advantage Lencas won in the auction helped them defeat Tolupan. Back at camp, Julian told Maddie that he found the idol and he was going to play it. However, Maddie tried to get Julian to give her the idol because she wanted it, telling him it was her who was the target. Julian read through her lie, and considered voting her off, but in the end, he kept Maddie as a more likely potential ally, and he was the sole vote to send Gervase home.

Episode 6: A Horrible Liar
Back at camp, Julian was mad at Maddie for lying to him. However, with his back against the wall, he knew that Maddie was his only option to get himself out of the hole he was in. At the reward challenge, Tolupan won a picnic reward. At the reward, Julian tried to get Daniel on his side to get himself out of his bad position. Daniel nodded his head, and pondered if he could change the game. At Lencas, Blaine went fishing, and Guy went through his back to find out that he had the hidden immunity idol. Knowing that Blaine had the idol made him worry, and made his alliance want immunity. Lencas was able to win immunity, sparing Blaine to play his idol. At Tolupan, Julian tried to get Daniel & Maddie with him to vote out Venus due to her friends on Lencas. Daniel & Maddie were interested, but in the end, they sided with Lauren & Venus, to send Julian home.

Guy got his Lencas alliance with Jared, Luhan, and Zoe-Maria to combine with Venus, Daniel, and Zoe-Maria to target the Brawns. All seven agreed to the plan. In order to keep Blaine from playing his idol on Lauren, Guy told him that he wanted returning players gone first, and that Jared was the target.

Episode 8: Dude, What Happened?
Blaine was mad at Guy for lying to him, but Guy lied to him saying that Jared & Maddie got the beauties and Venus together to target Lauren, and that he wanted to side with the majority. Blaine took the lie hook, line, and sinker. At the reward challenge, Maddie, Zoe-Maria, Blaine, and Daniel went on reward to a local spa. Back at camp, Guy, Luhan, and Venus were worried about the Beauties & the Bringbacks forming an alliance against them after Blaine was gone. So, they created a plan with Jared at camp to flush Blaine's idol and vote out Daniel if Blaine were to not win immunity. At the immunity challenge, Maddie won herself immunity, but JB told her to pack her bags anyway, because another immunity challenge and tribal council would follow the first one. Back at camp, Jared filled Maddie in on the plan and they agreed. They agreed that Blaine would be voted out after Daniel. They decided to keep Zoe-Maria out of the loop so she wouldn't spill the beans to Daniel. At tribal council, Blaine played his idol, but he didn't need it. Daniel & Zoe-Maria were stunned at the result, and Daniel was sent to the jury.

In a surprise, the Loved One temptation was offered for reward. Only Luhan & Venus accepted the temptation, and they went to Ponderosa with their loved ones, food, and the ability to talk to the jurors and help their endgame. At Ponderosa, Luhan offered Venus a final two deal, but Venus told her she was only willing to commit to the final three. At the immunity challenge, Guy won immunity.

Back at camp, Blaine was the Brains' target, but Blaine & Maddie tried to convince Luhan that Guy would win the game if he got any further.
