==Story==
===Night 3===
Salani returned to the One World camp from Tribal Council, where they received news that tribemate Kourtney was removed from the game after fracturing her wrist at the first Immunity Challenge. Colton, Michael, and Jay from the Manono tribe welcomed the women, where Michael telling that they stoked Salani's bonfire while they were away at Tribal Council. Kat expressed her disdain for the gesture, saying that she could tend without the men's assistance. Christina attempted to make amends with Alicia over their heated confrontation at Tribal Council. Christina explained that Alicia did not let her explain her side of the story and that she felt it was disrespectful.
Alicia hugged her and told her not to worry about it, but still said in her confessional that she wanted Christina out, but Nina was first due to her being weaker.
===Day 4===
The Salani women gather to set some ground rules. Sabrina assigns chores to each tribe member after everybody agrees to appoint her as leader.
Nina senses that she, Christina, and Monica are on the oust of the alliance and mentions that Kat is driving her nuts. Instead of getting food, Alicia and Kat go and take a swim in the ocean.
Tree Mail includes two enormous boxes for each tribe and a Do-It-Yourself Reward Challenge inside. Bill explains the rules, and the Manono tribe ends up winning the tarp, the box, and the rope.
After adding the tarp to their shelter, Matt believes that their shelter will be the best in history. Everyone's working hard, except Colton and after Matt says that he's just here to hang out at Salani's camp, Jonas warns them that Colton is getting along with the girls and when the merge comes, Colton will have all the girls wrapped around his finger.
Colton is at Salani's tribe camp helping them with their shelter. The women decide to fake a tribe meeting so they could get Colton out of their camp. He sadly leaves and suggests that he should just go to a different part of the island and start his own tribe because he's so lonely. Later, he returns to the girls' camp and calls all the women together. He attempts to explain that he doesn't fit anywhere on his tribe and that coming to their tribe makes him feel that he fits in.
That evening, Colton calls over Tarzan, Jonas, Troyzan, and Leif and reveals to them his idol, after mentioning to play it at their next Tribal Council in hopes of getting Matt or Michael out soon. The four are astounded and Jonas claims that Colton is 'ridiculously smart'.
===Day 5===
Manono and Salani arrive on a beach for the Immunity Challenge. The men decide to sit out Tarzan before they line up on the beam over the water. Leif makes a decent progress for the men, while Kat is having a harder time getting through Monica. After Manono has had already three of their men across, Salani hasn't had a single woman go through the course. Kat is shockingly unable to figure out the logistics of the challenge and repeatedly jumps into the water. Monica volunteers to go first and successfully gets through all of the women. Before Salani could continue with Monica's idea, the men have already had all of their men through and win the second Immunity.
Back at camp, Kat immediately takes responsibility for losing the challenge and the women try and forgive her about it, with Sabrina telling her to "rah-rah" on the inside. Nina disagrees about forgiving Kat and calls her a 'dumb blonde', 'dumb broad', and 'a complete idiot' during a confessional. So, she approaches Chelsea and tells her that Kat is ignorant and a nitwit.
At Tribal Council, Jeff believes that this is one of the most embarrassing starts in Survivor. He compares Salani to a group of sixth graders and lets Nina talk about her life experiences. After briefly explaining her life as a cop, Nina puts Kat on the spot and asks her what her life experiences are. Kat explains that she's in sales, so she talks to people. Jeff encourages her to use her youth as an advantage and she does. But Nina scoffs that Kat isn't an athlete. Kim agrees that the vote is between Nina and Kat, and both Chelsea and Sabrina confess that if they could start over, they'd probably have different alliances. It turns out Kat never puts herself in a position where she knows she'll fail, so she says that it's fair to vote her out, but she hopes that her fellow alliance members will believe in her and save her. Before finishing, Kat throws in Christina's name, claiming that while she's here to play, Christina is just there.
 
Jeff tallies the vote and Nina is voted out. Before sending them back to camp, Jeff says that the women better get their acts together.
