Challenges[]
Episode 6[]
Challenge: Getting Tanked
In teams of four, one member would stand at the top of a tower and pour water down three gutters held by the other three members. The water would fill a container, which would release two balls when full. Once the two balls are released, the member who was at the top of the tower will collect the balls and go to a curved table maze, where he will use a steering wheel to control the maze and land the two balls at the end of the maze to score a point. The first tribe to score five points wins reward.
Reward: Food supplies (1/2 L of oil, 750 g of rice, and 750 g of beans).
Winner: Dominantes
Challenge: The tribes will face each other in one-on-one confrontations. The participants will be blindfolded and with jingle bells in hands and feet, only by the sound of the jingle bells they will be able to know the location of the opponent, to score a point they must be the first to find, remove and raise a flag that the opponent will have on their back. The first tribe to score six points wins reward.
Reward: Four pillows, four blankets, and a provision of fruit.
Winner: Dominantes
Episode 7[]
Challenge: Buried Alive / Matt Finish
In teams of seven, one member will be locked within a cage, while the other six tribe members will push the cage through an obstacle course. Once the tribe has reached the finish mat, the caged member must be freed and must attempt to land three balls on top of a narrow perch to score a point. The first tribe to score four points wins reward.
Reward: A hammock.
Winner: Dominantes
Challenge: By Any Means Necessary
The tribes will face each other in one-on-one confrontations. The castaways would race along the beach to unhook a bag hanging from a pole. The castaways would then have to race back to their respective finish mat. The first person to get the bag to touch their finish mat would score a point for their tribe. The first tribe to score five points wins reward.
Reward: Two eggs for each member of the tribe.
Winner: Dominantes
Episode 8[]
Reward Challenge #5: Vertically Challenged
In teams of two, one member must climb to the top of a tower to collect two bags with a ball, and then slide down a water slide. This member will race to untie the second member, who is tied to a structure. Once untied, this member will make their way through a multi-level obstacle course while collecting two more bags. They will then untie knots to open a gate and run to an arched bridge, where from the top of the bridge they must stick two balls on a thin rod in the floor to score a point. The first tribe to score seven points wins reward.
Reward: Two pancakes, a plate of pasta and coffee for each member of the tribe.
Winner: Elegidos
Episode 9[]
Challenge: A Bit Tipsy
At intervals, the castaways must stack blocks in a tower on a wobbly platform, and stretch a ladder that keeps the table balanced to return to the starting position. If any blocks fall, they are eliminated from the challenge. The last one standing from each tribe wins immunity.
Winners: Ximena Duggan and Aarón Albores
Challenge: Idol Hands
Facing off one against one in a delimited circle, a castaway from each tribe would hold a wooden idol on top of a platform that they would hold in one hand. They would use the other free hand to attempt to knock their opponent's idol off the platform. The castaway who knocks down their opponent's idol in two duels of three scores one point for their tribe. The first tribe to score seven points wins reward.
Reward: A sandwich and soft drink for each member of the tribe.
Winner: Dominantes
Episode 10[]
Challenge: Reverse Tug of War
The tribes will face each other in one-on-one confrontations. Each participant will be attached by a harness and rope to a member of the opposing tribe, and through the use of physical force must pull the other participant forward to reach a flag and score a point, all while avoiding being pulled to the opposite side by the opponent. The first tribe to score five points wins immunity.
Winner: Dominantes
Challenge: On the Pull
Each nominee will have to hold a rope thread through a tile and holding up a bucket containing some of their body weight. If they let go of the rope, the bucket will drop and the tile will break. The first person to break their tile would be eliminated.
