Tribe History
Episode 1-4
In "You Guys Are Dumber than You Look", the tribe of fans (Airai) arrived on the mats when Probst announced that they are competing against favorites. One by one the favorites came out and were introduced by Probst. Probst stated that there was a special Immunity Necklace on a nearby island for one member of each tribe. Kathy received Airai's special immunity, whereas Yau-Man received Malakal's special immunity. Airai won the first challenge, which was a combined Reward/Immunity Challenge. This sent the Favorites to Tribal Council, where Jon became the first voted off by a vote of 9-1.
In "The Sounds of Jungle Love", Malakal won the combined Reward/Immunity Challenge. Cirie and Kathy were exiled. At Airai's first Tribal Council, Mary became the second voted off by a vote of 6-2-2.
In "I Should Be Carried on the Chariot-Type Thing!", Malakal won the Reward Challenge, with Ami and Kathy being exiled. Airai won the Immunity Challenge. Despite Yau-Man being kind and helpful, many of his tribemates (especially Cirie) were worried he would find the Hidden Immunity Idol. Yau-Man became the third voted off by a vote 6-2-1.
In "That's Baked, Barbecued and Fried!", Malakal won the Reward Challenge. Ozzy and Kathy are exiled. This is the third time that Kathy is sent to Exile Island. Malakal won the Immunity Challenge, sending Airai to Tribal Council. Mikey B became the fourth voted off by a vote 6-3 due to his strength and vote manipulation.
Episode 5-8, Mixed Tribes
In "He's a Ball of Goo!", the two tribes were switched, thus dissolving the direct competition of Fans vs. Favorites and integrating these members into the two tribes. The new Airai won the Reward Challenge. No one was exiled in this cycle. The new Airai won immunity, sending the new Malakal to Tribal Council. Joel became the fifth voted off by a vote of 6-2.
In "It Hit Everyone Pretty Hard", the new Airai continued winning challenges by winning both the reward and Immunity Challenge. Jason and Chet were sent to Exile Island. Jonathan, who was on the new Airai, was evacuated due to an infected knee. Chet became the seventh castaway eliminated by a vote of 5-2.
In "Like a Wide-Eyed Kid in the Candy Store", Malakal won the Reward Challenge, with Tracy and Jason being exiled. Airai wins the Immunity Challenge. A member of the Airai Tribe, Kathy decided to quit. Tracy became the ninth castaway eliminated by a vote of 5-1.
In "A Lost Puppy Dog", the Airai tribe would win the last tribal challenge, being a combined Reward/Immunity Challenge. Alexis and Ozzy are exiled. Ami became the tenth castaway eliminated by a vote of 4-1.
In "I'm in Such a Hot Pickle!", the two tribes merged into the Dabu tribe, consisting of six favorites and four fans.
