Additional Stipulation: The tribe that finishes first will have extra supplies to set up camp, such as pre-cut lumber, ropes and fully-stocked toolkit from Sears. Winner (in order of finish): Nagar and Sar Mayee

Day 1
Aboard a fishing boat, eighteen new castaways are about to be marooned off the coast of the Burmese archipelago of Mergui for an adventure of a lifetime. Divided into three tribes, named after three Burmese mythical creatures, the castaways meet Jeff Probst, who is aboard a motorboat along with three cowled individuals. Jeff reveals that the three cloaked persons are returning players who were voted out first from their respective seasons: Francesca Hogi from Survivor: Redemption Island, Tina Scheer from Survivor: Exile Island and Jolanda Jones from Survivor: Palau. After a draw of eggs filled with tribe-colored paint, it is settled that Francesca goes with the red Nagar tribe, while Tina and Francesca go to the yellow Sar Mayee and green Magan tribes respectively. As the three women are about to climb to the fishing boat to meet their tribemates, Jeff hands them the map to their respective camps. After untying the ropes that hold their tribe boats, the tribes make their way to their new homes. "sarmayee"

- Being back for a second time is such an honor, given we were the first ones out from our seasons. I'm gonna use my camping skills to better my tribe, and I wish I will not be the first person voted out from the game.

At the Nagar tribe, Francesca states she feels awkward as the new players because she might be branded as a threat. Francesca disclaims that she is just as inexperienced as them, so branding her as an early target is pointless. Francesca tells the newbies that they should create shelter immediately, so they can enjoy the rest of the day off and get to know each other. While several members are receptive of Francesca, one member, Desiree, is suspicious of the returning contestant.
