Story
Day 1
Jeff reveals to the ten contestants already there that their opponents will be past Survivor players. Most of the favorites are welcomed with a loud round of applause. Jeff reveals the first challenge to the contestants. With help from Yau-Man Chan, Kathy Sleckman wins immunity for the Fans and Yau-Man wins immunity for the Favorites.
Day 2
Day 3
Before Tribal Council, Jon Dalton asks to be voted out so he can take care of his family. Although there is some skepticism, especially from Jonathan Penner and Eliza Orlins, the castaways agree and Jon is unanimously voted out.
Challenges
Challenge: First to Shore
Hidden on the island across the lagoon are two Individual Immunity Idols, one for each tribe. The first person from each tribe to find the tribe's Idol is safe at their first visit to Tribal Council.
Winners: Kathy Sleckman and Yau-Man Chan
Challenge: Reinventing The Wheel
Both teams will race to assemble four puzzle wheels and attach them to a cart, in which two of their tribemates will ride. Pushing the cart through a series of obstacles to a finish platform, the tribes will then disassemble the puzzle wheels and use them to complete a turnstile. Finally, they'll wind the turnstile to raise a fire wok, igniting their tribal cauldron. First tribe to finish the task would win the challenge.
Reward: Flint
Winner: Airai

 Yau-Man | “ | (voting against Jon) Jonny, goodbye. It's been good knowing you. I'm glad I got to know you. I wish you the best of luck as a father. I am a father of two very happy, very well-adjusted teenage daughters. My wife and I raised them right. Need any advice on how to raise a baby, raise a baby to a happy and well-adjusted child, I will be very happy to give you some advice. Thank you. | ” |
 Eliza | “ | (voting against Jon) Fairplay, I'm sad you're going. Over the past few days I've realized we could be great friends. I'm gonna miss you a lot around camp. I can't wait to meet Piper. | ” |
Final Words
 Jon | “ | Well guys, I didn't win a million dollars, but I got more than a million dollars of baby waiting for me at home. I love you, Michelle, and I love you, Piper. I'll see you soon. I definitely feel I did the right thing. My head's going crazy right now. Pretty cool becoming a man on a camera or at least becoming a daddy. I think I did that over the last three days. So let's keep the string going. Having those emotions and hormones run through my body was pretty surreal. Wasn't quite ready for that. Usually Jonny Fairplay's in cruise control. Not so much this go-around. Hey, you know what, if it makes me a better person, I'm happy. I think I've done a million degree change since the last time I was here. Last time I was the biggest bad guy ever, and this time I'm a responsible adult people like, some even love. What's going on in the world? Anyone who doesn't believe me, I'm registered at Babystyle.com, and ToysRUs.com. I'll send you pictures of whatever you send me, to show you how happy we are. No regrets at all. I'm the luckiest person in the world, I got a second chance to do this, even for a few days. I was happy to be asked. | ” |
