Survivor Tocantins Episode 1: Let’s Get Rid of the Weak Players Before We Even Start



With the castaways already split into tribes, they were dropped off by truck in a clearing. The game started immediately with Jeff announcing that the tribes would have 60 seconds to gather as many supplies from the back of the truck as they could. Timbira took all of the water and bags of beans, leaving Jalapao with almost nothing. Jeff then announced that the tribe’s campsites were about a 4 hour trek by foot away, that one person from each tribe “would not be making the journey”, and a vote would take place immediately. Jalapao voted for Sandy and Timbira voted for Sierra. Sandy and Sierra thought they were being voted out the game, but Jeff announced that they would only not be making the trek to camp and instead would be flown to their campsites by helicopter. When Sandy and Sierra arrived at their respective campsites, they were given the option to start setting up camp or follow clues to a Hidden Immunity Idol. Sandy opted to follow the clues, but did not find the idol before her tribe arrived. Sierra opted to start setting up the camp in order to improve her impression with her tribe. Carolina was upset that Sandy did not work on the campsite. Timbira’s trek did not end until dark by which time, Sierra had built a shelter for her tribe. Despite her hard work, Coach’s view on Sierra did not change and he still wanted to vote her out first. On day 2, Sandy resumed her search for the Hidden Immunity Idol, but was stumped by the second clue. At the Reward/Immunity Challenge, Brendan and Erinn quickly solved the table maze for a come from behind victory for Timbira. Back at camp, Carolina’s bossy personality rubbed her tribe the wrong way, while Sandy’s effort at the challenge impressed her tribemates. Still concerned about being voted out, Sandy went searching for the Hidden Immunity Idol before Tribal Council, but was unsuccessful. At Tribal Council, Jalapao decided that Carolina would be first voted out and she was voted out 7-1. Before sending the tribe back to camp, Jeff gave them a piece of flint.
