It's an epic showdown as two legends set their sights on one another. Also, two castaways attempt to put their past behind them and start a new game while another castaway introduces the "spy shack" 2.0.
Castaways embark on the most grueling 39 days in Survivor history and test whether brute strength, looks or smarts will be the attribute that helps capture the title of Sole Survivor. Also, one castaway deals with excruciating pain when a bug gets stuck in their ear.
Castaways hover on the "Edge of Extinction" in an all-new twist, and four returning players attempt to bond with their new tribemates. Also, castaways tackle a giant puzzle in their first immunity challenge of the season.
The merge brings another twist in the game that leaves two castaways out of the celebratory feast.
The castaways' mental toughness is tested on the Edge of Extinction, and targets begin switching from one castaway to another when weaknesses are exposed.
