Is Her Head on the Right Way?

This is the first episode of Survivor: Book Smart vs. Street Smart.

Reward Challenge
Challenge: Pop Quiz

A designated runner will have to race through a set of obstacles (dig under a log, cross a balance beam, a net crawl) to retrieve a ring of keys. Then a designated puzzle solver will need to use the keys to unlock a sliding puzzle. The first person to finish their puzzle wins reward for the tribe.

Reward: Pre-cut lumber and additional supplies to help set up camp

Immunity Challenge
Challenge: Towering Troubles

Each tribe will need to jump between three sets of raised ramps to the end of the course. If at any point a castaway falls while jumping, they will have to run back and start over. Once all tribe members have finished, they will need to dig a heavy ladder out of a sand pit. Once they have the ladder free, they will use it to go up, across, and down a tall platform. The tribe must then scale a tower using two ramps. However, the tribes have the option of using a shortcut, releasing a monkey’s fist which must be tossed through a target. Once everyone is at the top of the first ramp, they will need to hoist each other to the top of a second ramp. The tribes have the option of using a second shortcut, which will turn the second ramp into a flight of stairs. Once everyone is at the top of the tower, two members of each tribe will need to solve a tiki head puzzle. If a tribe had used zero shortcuts, their puzzle will contain 10 pieces. If the tribe had used one shortcut, their puzzle will contain 15 pieces. If the tribe had used both shortcuts, their puzzle will contain 20 pieces. The first tribe to finish their puzzle wins.

Reward: Flint
