Notes:
^1 The tribes competed for both tribal reward and individual immunity. Marcus was the first to reach the Kota's individual Immunity Idol. Later, the Kota tribe reached the finish line first, winning the tribal portion of the challenge.
^2 Due to the odd number of players at the time of the tribe switch, Sugar, the odd person out, was sent to Exile Island, and rejoined the game as a member of Fang, replacing Jacquie and evening the tribes at 7-7.
^3 Both tribes were sent to Tribal Council. The tribes competed in an individual Immunity Challenge.
