Tribe History
Upolu started out as an eigh-person tribe, but they were soon after told that another player would be joining them. Benjamin "Coach" Wade, from Survivor: Tocantins and Survivor: Heroes vs Villains, joined the Upolu tribe. Unlike the other returning player Ozzy, Coach was not well-received by several of the tribe members, particularly Christine.

In the first reward challenge, which was just between Ozzy and Coach, the Upolu tribe shouted out conflicting instructions, which caused Coach to lose the challenge for Upolu. Despite the new players of Upolu being partially to blame for the loss, everyone except Edna shunned Coach. However, upon arriving to their camp, the entire tribe would have a pleasant conversation getting to know each other before getting to work on the camp. That night, Coach, Rick, Sophie, Albert, and Brandon talked about making an alliance and it seemed like everyone was cool with it, but the alliance would never be mentioned again except briefly by Sophie. Upolu later won the first immunity challenge, keeping them all safe. In addition to winning immunity, Jeff revealed that the clue to their Hidden Immunity Idol was also hidden at camp. This prompted several tribe members to begin searching for the clue, but all to no avail (despite Stacey being very close).

On day 4, Brandon revealed to Coach that he is Russell Hantz's nephew, but Coach decided to stay loyal to Brandon even though his uncle was a devious villain, hoping that Brandon would return the favor, aware that he might be fooled once again on Survivor.
