Episode 3=
===Night 3===
Kalooban returned to camp after voting Martin. Knowing she was Martin's target, Vicky quickly thanked the tribe for not voting her out. Other people, such as Sylvain, was a bit more emotional seeing him leave.
===Day 4===
After 4 days, the Kalooban tribe finally received their flint and steel along with a bag of rice.
Over on Tiyaga, the discussions on which direction the shelter should face resurfaced, which creates discord among the tribe.
Sango tries to talk to the tribe about taking a final decision, but no decision is taken, to the anger of Sango, who opens up about this with Simon.
After, Jean-Junior talks with Joël about expanding his alliance (Unbeknownst to Joël, who wasn't made aware of Jean-Junior's previous attempts at making an alliance) and even making a duo together.
After this discussion, Joël quickly talks with Marika to go over Jean-Junior's offer, solidifying the duo between Joël and Marika.
Jean-Junior, in return, talks with Simon about both alliances in making sure to create a majority with Christophe, Joël, Kimberly and Marika.
Later in the day, Jean-Junior starts doubting Simon, similar to how Simon distrusts Jean-Junior.
Christophe, under the name of himself and Jean-Junior, goes to confront Simon about their doubts. However, Simon took it personally and actually pushed him closer to Sango.
At the Kalooban camp, they used their fire to boil some eggs and some snails to give them strength for today's challenge.
At the challenge, Tiyaga gets their first look at the new Kalooban tribe, minus Martin, which shocks Joël.
The Reward challenge, Nut Bucket, sees two tribe members, one men and one women, holding onto a rope connected to a large net. The remaining castaways attempt to shoot coconuts into the opposing tribe's nets, increasing the weight load. The first tribe to get all members of the opposing tribe to drop their nets wins fishing gear.
On Tiyaga, Jean-Junior and Johannie holds the net while Joël sit out for the tribe.
On Kalooban, Pierre-Alexandre and Martine holds the net.
Tiyaga tries to pile all of their coconut on Pierre-Alexandre's net while Kalooban, despite being a little more equal with their coconuts, still seems to target Jean-Junior's net first. Pierre-Alexandre's net is the first to fall. After 18 minutes, Martine's net fell, which gave a third victory to Tiyaga.
After the challenge, Jean-Junior opens up about doing this for his brother, who has mobility issues due to a car accident. Later, Sandrine mentions in front of the camp how beautiful she felt Jean-Junior's message was.
Back at the Kalooban camp, the tribe is devastated with their third loss, especially Martine, who felt like she let her tribe down.

===Day 4===
The episode opens on the Tiyaga tribe, with everyone trying out the new fishing equipment from the Reward Challenge. Johannie leads the tribe with her experience.
Over on Kalooban, the women are starting to start the fire. After some struggling, Martine ended up starting it.
Back at the Tiyaga camp, Sango notices some tics on Simon's shirt. Afterwards, they quickly discuss about who to eliminate on their first tribal council, which sums up to breaking up either Christophe or Jean-Junior due to their close relationship and their paranoia. They quickly both share their plan, starting with Sango telling Kimberly, which even if she understands, she still worries about lying to them.
Their morning routine quickly gets interrupted with Marika bringing treemail back to camp.
Over on Kalooban, Pierre-Alexandre is the one to notice the treemail.
It says that a Hidden Immunity Idol has been hidden, along with some clues to help them.
Both tribes split up to try and hunt individually for the idol.
After Johannie leaves to go search somewhere else, Christophe, near her, decides to look over where she was and ends up finding a clue, which he shared with Jean-Junior, Kimberly and Marika.
Over on Kalooban, Nicolas opens up about not wanting to find the idol, since he doesn't want the target on his back.
Instead, the clue is found by Karine.
This idol hunt allows Sylvain to solidify his duo with Maryse, who also took the opportunity to discuss potential targets. From there, Justine's name came out due to her isolation from the rest of the tribe, along with her struggling with life at camp.
Back at the Tiyaga camp, Simon is talking with Johannie and Marika about various member of the tribe, including Joël, who supposedly threw Johannie's name, Sango, who worries Simon on a longer term, and Chris, who believes is the biggest threat and need to go, which comes back to what he said earlier about them.
Marika then went to talk with Christophe about her discussion with Simon, which then got out of control, as Christophe and Marika told Kimberly that Simon would've told Marika that Christophe emotionally manipulates people in life.
Over on Kalooban, Maryse, Pierre-Alexandre and Vicky who are near the beach and end up discussing potential targets. The name of Justine comes back once again, solidifying her target. Justine then opens up to Denis about feeling left out of the tribe discussion, as more people opens up about wanting to eliminate her.
Sylvain offers to look for clues with Martine and Karine, but Karine declines due to "needing to go fish with the tribe". Before leaving, however, she hides her clue in her bag.
She puts the clue in her bathing suit top while she hides the jute envelope in the tribe's tool box. Martine leaves to go look for the idol, and she falls on a symbol carved on a tree. She believes that it is a clue and leads her to the very same tool box that has Karine's jute. There, she found a small rope, presumably the rope that was tied to Karine's clue. Martine then believes that it is either a clue or even the idol. Finally, they fell on the jute envelope and believe it is a clue. She decided to keep it between her and Denis, who was with her while looking through the toolbox.
Vicky finds the second clue.
On Tiyaga, Joël finds the second clue.

===Day 5===
The episode opens up in the Tiyaga camp, with Jean-Junior talking about the tribe leaving to try and find the Hidden Immunity Idol.
This raised suspicions from Isabelle and Johannie, who thought it was weird that they weren't in the forest.
Joël, the second holder of the clue, ends up looking in the same spot where Christophe and Jean-Junior were, which makes them believe that Joël has the clue or is watching them. After some discussions, they decide to confront him.
Joël, who felt threatened by the direct approach the duo took, blew up to them and denied the claim, saying that he was around to join them and just fish. He also took the opportunity to talk with them about how the rest of the tribe sees them as a duo.
Over on Kalooban, with no one having any information on the immunity idol, the tribe keep looking for clues while letting paranoia roam through the camp, with people like Sylvain looking for them while collecting wood or Denis talking with Maryse for information.
Nicolas is now aware of the relationships on the tribe and his position within.
The discussion of who would go home if they go back to tribal is brought up once again by Sylvain and Martine, confirming the claims of the previous episode that Justine would be voted out.
===Day 6===
Back at Tiyaga, in preparations for the next Immunity Challenge, Sango makes a speech to hype the tribe.
Both tribes are invited to the set to battle in Sumo at Sea. Christophe ends up sitting out for the Tiyaga tribe.
The first match-up is Johannie for Tiyaga versus Justine for Kalooban. With a more defensive stand throughout the match-up, Justine gets the first point for Kalooban.
The second match-up is Simon for Tiyaga versus Sylvain for Kalooban. Simon takes a more offensive approach, landing him the first point for Tiyaga. After getting back with his tribe, Patrice calls out Simon's cocky attitude following his victory.
The third match-up is Marika for Tiyaga versus Maryse for Kalooban. Maryse swiftly pushes Marika out, giving Kalooban a second point.
The fourth match-up is Sandrine for Tiyaga versus Martine for Kalooban. Martine quickly took the advantage and was able to overpower Sandrine, giving a third point for Kalooban.
The fifth match-up is Sango for Tiyaga versus Pierre-Alexandre for Kalooban. Sango opts to do the challenge barefoot, and with a lack of grip on the slippery platform, gives Kalooban a fourth point.
The sixth match-up is Joël for Tiyaga versus Nicolas for Kalooban. Joël pushes himself on Nicolas, barely beating Nicolas and giving a second point to Tiyaga.
The seventh match-up is Isabelle for Tiyaga versus Karine for Kalooban. Karine was able to take control of the fight and win the final point for Kalooban.
Back at camp, Tiyaga felt defeated after losing a first challenge. Jean-Junior opens up a discussion with the tribe, asking them to be more humble in the future, in reference to Simon's reaction after his match-up.
Despite not agreeing with what he said, Simon was aware that he needed to be more careful.
On Kalooban, the mood is much better. The tribe is congratulating Justine for giving the first point, which gives her a new hope. She thanks Karine for her cheering, which hits her emotionally.

===Day 6===
The episode opens on Kalooban, with the tribe boiling coconut juice, reminding them of the taste of coffee.
Over on Tiyaga, they are working on baits for the fish, with Isabelle crushing molluscs.
Despite being the only one working with the fishing gear, Johannie is still happy to do so, since it gives her leverage on the tribe.
The first name to be said out loud was Simon, said by Christophe. Sango went and told Simon that information.
Simon voiced his concerns to Johannie and Isabelle that asking everyone on their thoughts regarding tribal might've made people uncomfortable, to which Johannie replied saying that no matter what, it was important to get the strategy going.
Simon then talks with Jean-Junior to try and flip the direction the vote is going, to which Jean-Junior replied that Simon broke a lot of moral values that Jean-Junior upholds.
Despite that, Jean-Junior still wishes to keep Simon around for his physical strength. From here, he calls out Isabelle and Kimberly as potential targets, with him preferring Isabelle as a boot over Kimberly.
However, things aren't simple, as the tribe seems to be divided between Isabelle and Kimberly. For Joël, he mentions having no relationship with Kimberly and would prefer voting her out. From his perspective, the votes would be divided so that Christophe, Jean-Junior and Sango votes Isabelle while trying to get Joël and Marika. However, the claims of the previous day where Simon called Christophe a manipulator resurfaced and threaten once again Simon's place among the tribe.
Marika then has a talk with her alliance of Christophe, Kimberly, Sandrine and Sango. The name of Isabelle quickly came up, and seems to be the consensus of the group, despite Marika not feeling it.
Tiyaga arrives at Tribal Council. Patrice talks with Isabelle about hearing her name, and decides to make a pitch to the tribe. From here, whispers quickly start blowing up as Christophe talks publicly about what Simon said. Simon then spoke up and defended his actions, saying that it was purely a game move and he shouldn't apologize for it.
Simon votes against Christophe, while everyone else votes against Simon due to his scheming, eliminating him from the game. Simon's torch is snuffed, and the Tiyaga tribe heads back to their camp.
