Survivor 47 is the forty-seventh season of the American competitive reality television series Survivor. It premiered on September 18, 2024, on CBS in the United States, and is the fifteenth consecutive season to be filmed in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.

The 18 new castaways began their adventure.

  • Reward Challenge: Tribes had to race out into the jungle, two members at a time, to retrieve heavy puzzle pieces. They then worked together to assemble a 3D puzzle. The first tribe to solve their puzzle won a pot, machete, and flint.

Gata won the challenge. Aysha from Lavo and TK from Tuku were appointed to earn supplies a different way, which was to find four keys scattered across the island; TK earned the supplies for Tuku. At Gata, Andy's aggressive attempts to bond with Jon and Rachel were met with skepticism, leaving him feeling alienated, while Jon worried the age gap between himself and the rest of the tribe made him a target. At Lavo, Rome immediately searched for an advantage, but the time away from his tribemates aroused suspicion, though he was able to find the Beware Advantage clue. At Tuku, Gabe likewise found a Beware Advantage and, despite being caught by TK, followed the clues to an idol good for his next three Tribals. He also approached Sue for an alliance, and she in turn bonded with Caroline.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes paddled a boat to shore, collecting three heavy chests along the way. They then pushed their chests across a track and used the puzzle pieces inside to assemble a large Survivor logo puzzle. The first two tribes to finish won immunity plus a large shelter-building kit for first place and a smaller toolkit for second place.

Lavo cruised to first place and Tuku placed second. Andy needed medical for heat exhaustion, then had a paranoia-induced meltdown. This made him a quick target, but Jon targeted Anika, wanting to make a bigger move. He relayed this to Sam, who felt threatened by Jon's strategic chops. The women debated if Andy's physical advantage over Jon outweighed his erratic personality. At Tribal Council, the vote went unanimously against Jon, and he became the first person voted out.

6762"Epic Boss Girl Move"0.7/9[13]September 25, 2024 (2024-09-25)4.47[13]

At Gata, the tribe made a point of coddling Andy to stop him searching for an idol. Accidentally left alone, Andy found the Beware Advantage but chose to leave it. A worried Sam and Anika found it on their own; Sam waited to dig up the idol box with Sierra and kept the idol good for only one Tribal. Realizing the Advantage was gone, a panicking Andy confided in Sam, who let him think one of the women had found it. Sierra was surprised by Sam's wanting to keep Andy around, but kept silent.

At Lavo, Rome's arrogance got on his tribe's nerves, particularly Sol's. Rome found the Beware Advantage and shared with Teeny, who divulged it to Kishan. Rome caught them holding the idol box, but Teeny managed to talk her way out and Rome kept the idol good for a single Tribal. At Tuku, TK aligned with Kyle and Tiyana, but earned Sue's ire for talking nonstop while she was trying to nap on the beach.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribes had to work together to bring a heavy bag of rice from an ocean platform to a locked gate on the beach. One tribe member had to maneuver the key through a blind maze, then cut open the bag of rice to retrieve a ball. Three tribe members then worked together to get the ball across a snake-shaped track. The first two tribes to land their ball in the target won immunity plus a large fishing kit for first place and a smaller fishing kit for second place.

Gata and Lavo won the challenge, though Rachel was caught pocketing some of the rice. TK's vocal disgust with Tuku's attitude regarding losing struck a nerve with Tiyana and Sue, and Gabe recruited Sue and Caroline to blindside TK. Despite her anger Tiyana was conflicted about blindsiding Kyle, but at Tribal Council, she joined Caroline, Gabe, and Sue in voting out TK, while Gabe wasted his idol on himself.

6773"Belly of the Beast"0.6/8[14]October 2, 2024 (2024-10-02)4.34[14]

Gabe attempted to turn Kyle against Tiyana, leaving him uneasy; he told the girls that Gabe planned to take Sue and Caroline to the end as goats, but Sue, furious at Kyle for voting against her, ignored him. At Gata, Sam and Anika clashed over shelter improvements, and Andy loaned his Shot in the Dark to Sierra to build trust and a majority. At Lavo, Rome caught fish but, feeling unappreciated, ate most of them himself, to the tribe's chagrin.

Anika, Kyle, and Rome went on a journey where they all divulged tribe dynamics. Each had to take a 1-in-3 chance for an advantage with two scrolls saying "lose your vote"; Kyle and Anika each lost one vote and chose not to risk further, but Rome won a steal-a-vote.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: One tribe member climbed two high obstacles in the ocean and dove down to release a key from a buoy before crossing a balance beam. The two remaining pairs ran the same course, and each retrieved one of the two remaining buoys from the balance beam. The keys unlocked puzzle pieces to a large vertical seahorse puzzle. The first two tribes to complete the puzzle won immunity plus a large comfort kit and tarp for first place and smaller kit for second place.

Gata and Tuku won the challenge. Teeny and Kishan found themselves stuck between the pairings of Genevieve-Rome and Aysha-Sol. Aysha's refusal to vote for anyone other than Genevieve convinced Teeny and Kishan to turn against her. At Tribal Council, Rome played his idol to negate one vote, and Aysha was voted out.

6784"Is That Blood in Your Hair"0.7/7[15]October 9, 2024 (2024-10-09)4.14[15]

With Sol on the bottom of Lavo, Rome considered using his steal-a-vote to cancel out Sol's Shot in the Dark. He later followed Sol around camp to prevent him from searching for an idol, much to the latter's chagrin. At Gata, Sierra was caught between the alliances of Anika-Rachel and Andy-Sam, although Andy's clumsiness continued to annoy her. At Tuku, Sue found an idol but the resulting mess of red paint made Tiyana and Caroline suspicious.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Tribemates worked together to push a heavy cube down a path, and one person climbed the cube to retrieve bags. One person then assembled a hollow square and tossed the bags through onto a barrel. Two tribemates then assembled a vertical flame-shaped puzzle. The first two tribes to finish won immunity plus chickens for first place and six eggs for second place.

Despite a huge early lead, Lavo completely failed the puzzle and lost the challenge. Andy, Caroline, and Teeny were chosen for a journey, where they had to agree within a time limit on one person sacrificing their vote to earn a shared advantage, otherwise all three would lose their vote. Teeny did so, and the three earned an amulet idol, which could only be used when all three were part of the same tribe.

At Lavo, Rome gave Sol an "ultimatum": give up his Shot in the Dark or Rome would use his steal-a-vote against Sol and vote him out; Sol angrily refused to be threatened. However, Genevieve learned that Kishan had thrown her name out as a decoy to Rome, hoping to vote him out instead, and convinced Rome and Sol to form a temporary truce. At Tribal Council, Rome stole Kishan's vote, and Genevieve, Rome, and Sol joined forces to blindside Kishan, much to Teeny's shock.

6795"The Scales Be Tippin"0.6/7[16]October 16, 2024 (2024-10-16)4.02[16]

Rome expressed his distrust of Teeny, knowing she'd kept quiet about Kishan’s attempt to blindside him.

  • Reward Challenge: Randomly divided into two cross-tribal teams of seven, teammates worked together to free a ladder and take it across an obstacle course. One person climbed the ladder held by their teammates and freed bags containing balls that one player at a time had to shoot into five targets. The first team to finish won an afternoon at the Survivor social hour with hot dogs and soda, allowing them to form new bonds and gain information about the other tribes.

Caroline, Kyle, Rachel, Sam, Sue, Teeny, and Tiyana won the challenge. While on reward, Tiyana sowed suspicion about Gabe amongst the other tribes, while Sam denied he and Sierra were in an alliance. At Lavo, Rome approached Sol and Genevieve separately to suggest voting out Teeny; however, he told each contradicting stories which they later compared. Genevieve realized Rome's chaotic scheming was starting to outweigh his value as an ally, and when Teeny returned she admitted to wanting Rome gone. At Gata, a hungry Andy, Anika, and Sierra freed the chickens and made a futile attempt at fishing. At Tuku, Sue told Gabe that Tiyana threw him under the bus. Wanting to hold the tribe together, Caroline urged Tiyana to confess, but Gabe knew she hadn't told him the whole truth and vowed to see her voted off.

  • Immunity Challenge: One tribe member used a long-handled saw to cut a high rope and free sandbags and coconuts to place in a net. They then dragged the heavy sandbag and coconut laden net across a course picking up more coconuts along the way. Upon reaching their final mat, they emptied the net and tossed the sandbags at a puzzle to knock it down. Once the puzzle was completely off the table, tribes raced to put it back together. The first two tribes to finish won immunity.

Beforehand, Gata proposed trading their chickens to Jeff for 24 eggs, who negotiated them down to 18. Tuku cruised to first place and Lavo barely came in second, regaining their flint for the first time in days. Despite his frustration with Andy's poor performance during challenges, Sam targeted Anika; Sierra was conflicted, knowing that keeping Andy benefited Sam more than her. Meanwhile, Anika and Rachel targeted Andy (despite Anika losing her vote on the last journey), but he anticipated their attempt to trick him into voting for Sam. At Tribal Council, all except Rachel blindsided a stunned Anika, and Sam chose to let his immunity idol expire rather than reveal it to Andy.

6806"Feel the FOMO"0.6/8[17]October 23, 2024 (2024-10-23)4.35[17]

On Day 11, the three tribes began the individual stage of the game at Tuku's beach and castaways were tasked with finding an advantage in the upcoming challenge, which Genevieve found attached to a buoy. Rome goaded Kyle into revealing which tribemates he considered threats, then told them exaggerated versions of what Kyle had said. A skeptical Tiyana spoke with Sol, who urged everyone to fact-check, and Kyle emphatically targeted Rome once it circled back to him, with most castaways following suit.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Divided into two teams of six via schoolyard pick, castaways ran a course and two would maneuver a ball through a table maze. The first team to land their ball in the center target won a food reward as well as the chance to compete for individual immunity. For immunity, castaways had to balance on a beam while keeping a ball on a curved bow; if a player or ball dropped, they were out. The last one standing won immunity.

Genevieve's advantage granted her the ability to bypass the team portion of the immunity challenge, start directly in the individual portion, and be part of the reward. Kyle, Rachel, Sam, Sierra, Sue, and Teeny won reward; Kyle also won individual immunity. At reward, Sue suggested targeting Andy as a backup in case Rome played an idol, which Sam reluctantly agreed to. With his initial target of Kyle foiled, Rome planted seeds to get Sol out by depicting him as a bully. Though he felt confident Sol would go, the others knew Rome was untrustworthy. Sam mentioned the backup plan to Sol, who agreed to throw his vote at Andy. At Tribal Council, Jeff humored Rome by letting him take his seat and explain why the amulet was a bad advantage. Andy, Caroline, and Teeny used their amulets on Teeny, and most of the tribe voted out a dumbfounded Rome. Afterwards, the remaining 12 castaways were officially merged.

6817"Our Pickle on Blast"0.6/6[18]October 30, 2024 (2024-10-30)4.24[18]

Sol informed a rattled Andy that Sam had discussed using him as the decoy vote, and Andy aligned with Genevieve, mulling turning against Gata.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Divided into two teams of six via random draw, castaways held a long pole over their heads to balance a ball on a small disc while balancing themselves on a beam. At regular intervals, castaways moved further down the beam to narrower sections. If they fell off or their ball dropped, they were eliminated. The last person left standing overall won a food reward as well as group immunity, but would not vote at Tribal Council. The last person left standing from the losing group won individual immunity.

The entire Tuku tribe plus Rachel made up one group, while the Lavo three and the rest of Gata made up the other group. Kyle won immunity but was unable to outlast Genevieve and Teeny from the other group. While enjoying reward, Andy and Sol surmised an advantage would be hidden; Sol found it and discovered he could give someone from the other group either a vote blocker or safety without power. Knowing she was the obvious target, Rachel pled her case to the old Tuku members, some of whom were ready to turn on each other (Tiyana and Gabe especially). At Tribal Council, Rachel played the safety without power that Sol had anonymously gifted her; Sol feigned shock to keep from being exposed. Following some last-minute strategizing, a devastated Tiyana was voted out.

6828"He's All That"0.7/8[19]November 6, 2024 (2024-11-06)4.64[19]

Sol privately told Rachel he gave her the safety without power, and they aligned. The next morning, everyone was tasked with finding bamboo tubes containing money for the upcoming auction; Andy wound up with zero tubes. An item Rachel bought included a note, and Sam lost his vote due to having the most money left at the end of the auction. Rachel's note was a clue to an idol hidden in the shelter's tarp; she was able to retrieve it without being caught. Gata and Lavo agreed to align against Tuku, but Caroline tried to convince Lavo to turn against Gata instead, believing the Gata members to be more dangerous.

  • Immunity Challenge: Castaways held on to a bar attached to an overhead bucket containing 25% of their pre-game body weight. If their bucket dropped, they were out. The last man and woman left standing each won immunity.

Sue won immunity for the women, and Kyle won his third straight necklace for the men. Lavo ultimately sided with Tuku but were undecided on who to vote out. Sol tried to save Rachel and break up the stronger pair of Sam and Sierra; Andy sided with the majority, feeling like the Gata members had been taking him for granted. At Tribal Council, Rachel played her Shot in the Dark, which was unsuccessful, and the vote was tied between Sam and Sierra. Since Sam already lost his vote, Sierra could vote in the tiebreaker but only for Sam; ultimately, Sierra was sent to the jury by everyone else that could vote.

6839"Nightmare Fuel"0.7/9[20]November 13, 2024 (2024-11-13)4.43[20]

Despite being left out of the plan against Sierra, Rachel tried to mend fences with Andy, while Sam discussed a blindside on Gabe along with the Lavo three.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Contestants formed five pairs prior to the challenge. The pairs consisted of Sol/Teeny, Kyle/Gabe, Rachel/Caroline, Andy/Sam, and Sue/Genevieve. The challenge consisted of three stages. Stage One: Contestants had to crawl one at a time through a low sand-filled tunnel collecting a plank along the way. After both partners completed the tunnel and got to their mat, they dug up a second plank from a sand circle. The first three pairs to complete this stage advanced. Andy, Sam, Rachel, and Caroline were eliminated. Stage Two: Pairs worked together to place planks one at a time to complete a puzzle staircase. At the top, they crossed a three-tier balance beam and slid down a ramp. The first two pairs to complete this stage advanced to the final stage and won a food reward at camp. Sue and Genevieve were eliminated leaving Teeny, Sol, Kyle, and Gabe to move on. Stage Three: Contestants stood in a box with four levels of decreasingly narrow ledges on each side on which they would stand starting at the top level. When instructed by Jeff, they would step down to the next lower level. Upon reaching the bottom level, they would stay there until only one remained.

Gabe ultimately outlasted Kyle to win immunity. Following the challenge, Sam, Rachel, Caroline, and Andy, the first two pairs eliminated from the challenge, were sent on a journey. The four had lost their vote in the challenge but three of them could win back their vote in a game. Each of the four took turns stacking wooden cards in the form of a triangular tower until the tower fell. The person whose card caused the tower to fall did not win back their vote; Caroline brought down the tower. Back at camp, Teeny, Gabe, Kyle, and Sol enjoyed a feast of BLT sandwiches and beverages. Genevieve and Sue could not partake in the reward thus leaving them to sit back at camp and strategize together.

Genevieve worked on convincing tribemates to blindside Sol, while the Gata and Lavo members tried to turn the vote onto Sue, perceiving her as the glue holding Tuku together. Genevieve told Rachel about the plan, who told Sam, who in turn told Sol. Sol told Teeny and Genevieve that they needed to follow Sam's plan to target Sue, but Teeny thought Kyle would be a better target, causing the target to flip from Sue to him. At Tribal Council, the paranoia and uncertainty surrounding whether to vote out Sol, Sue, or Kyle led to a live tribal, where a unanimous vote sent Sol to the jury.

68410"Loyal to the Soil"0.7/9[21]November 20, 2024 (2024-11-20)4.42[21]

Expecting fallout from orchestrating Sol's elimination, Genevieve was still upset when an emotional Teeny suggested any alliance between them was broken. Tired of feeling betrayed and disregarded by the other castaways, Teeny vowed to avenge Sol. Rachel, angry with Sam for informing Sol about the plan after she asked him not to, was told by a scheming Andy that Genevieve considered her a threat.

  • Reward Challenge: Randomly divided into three teams of three, and with their legs bound together and their hands bound at the waist, they took turns slithering their way over two sand humps pushing a ball ahead of them using only their head. Once all three teammates made it to their mat, they unbound their limbs and, taking turns, rolled a ball across a table and up an incline trying to land it in a hole. The first team to land all three balls in the hole won a food reward of wraps, veggies, juices and more at Survivor Sanctuary.

Kyle, Rachel, and Sam won reward. Privately, Rachel and Sam debated who to target; Rachel was keen to oust Genevieve, but Sam hoped to blindside Gabe due to his status as Tuku's strategic leader and their numbers advantage. Kyle also preferred Gabe, who he correctly suspected was coming after him. Back at camp, Andy tried to deepen the wedge between Sue and Kyle by claiming that Kyle had disparaging nicknames for her and Caroline.

  • Immunity Challenge: Survivors stood on a narrow wooden perch while balancing a ball on a wooden disk. At intervals, additional balls were added. Survivors were eliminated if they fell off the beam or dropped a ball. The last one remaining won immunity.

Prior to the challenge, Jeff offered a bag of rice if four contestants would sit out the challenge. Caroline offered two Shots in the Dark, which Jeff refused, but he was then surprised when Kyle offered all remaining Shots in the Dark. Gabe talked a reluctant Sam into agreeing after everyone else (except Rachel, who already used hers) did so. Kyle won his fourth immunity necklace, thwarting Sue's plan to oust him. The vote came down to Gabe or Genevieve for their status as threats, and Caroline mulled turning against her day one ally, knowing it meant endangering her relationship with Sue. At Tribal Council, all but Sue sent Gabe to the jury.

68511"Flipping the Win Switch"0.7/9[22]November 27, 2024 (2024-11-27)4.50[22]

Although Sue was angry by Gabe's elimination, Caroline apologized and they reconciled, aligning with Andy, Rachel and Teeny. A boat arrived at camp for one person to go on a journey; Rachel ultimately drew the rock. She was tasked with rearranging five columns of mixed colored balls so each column only contained one color, thus releasing an advantage reward, before it was pulled into the ocean by weights she had to release. If she failed she lost her vote, but she was able to complete it in the nick of time; the advantage allowed her to anonymously block a vote and was good until the final six. She told everyone she lost her vote but told Sue and Caroline the truth.

  • Immunity Challenge: Survivors used a rope to balance a wobbly table while walking back and forth to retrieve lettered tiles that they then stacked on the wobbly table to spell the word immunity. If the tiles fell off the table, they had to start over. The first person to successfully finish, won immunity.

Rachel narrowly won immunity over Kyle. At camp, Sam tried to turn the vote toward a less-obvious candidate, while Andy and Rachel argued for Genevieve, perceiving her as a huge social threat whereas Kyle only had his ability to win challenges. Sue and Caroline, however, refused to consider anyone other than Kyle, and Teeny also urged the tribe to vote out Kyle. At Tribal Council, everyone except Andy sent Kyle to the jury.

68612"Operation: Italy"0.7/9[23]December 4, 2024 (2024-12-04)4.60[23]

Teeny was offended when Genevieve hinted that she would vote for Rachel in the end over her.

  • Reward Challenge: Survivors raced through a series of obstacles and retrieved a ball from a net tunnel. They then retrieved a second ball and crawled under a net pushing the balls ahead of them to the finish where they had to land both balls on a high perch. The first to accomplish this won a reward of Italian food and letters from home at the Survivor Sanctuary.

Sam won reward and chose Andy and Genevieve to join him. Teeny was livid over his choices, and the four players at camp aligned with the intention to target Sam immediately. On reward, Andy proposed a plan to convince the underdog alliance to split the vote so that he would join Sam and Genevieve in blindsiding Rachel. Genevieve crafted a fake idol and briefly showed Teeny as part of this plan.

  • Immunity Challenge: Contestants had to navigate a balance beam while transporting a ball on top of a pole. They then had to maneuver two skulls through a metal maze. Finally, they rolled balls one at a time onto a paddle where they had to land three of them in targets on the paddle. The first to finish won immunity.

Rachel easily won immunity, forcing Andy to switch the target to Caroline. Meanwhile, Teeny tried to convince the majority to not split the vote, distrustful of Genevieve's "idol". Sue mulled playing her idol for Caroline while Rachel considered playing her advantages. At Tribal Council, no advantages were played and Operation Italy came to fruition, sending Caroline to the jury and shocking Rachel, Sue, and Teeny.

68713"Bob and Weave"TBADecember 11, 2024 (2024-12-11)TBD

After being blindsided yet again, Teeny told Andy, Sam, and Genevieve that Rachel had a block-a-vote, not realizing that Rachel was eavesdropping. The next morning, Sue looked for a new idol but Rachel told her she had found one after the auction; Sue did not admit to already having an idol but, furious with Andy for forcing Caroline out, was keen to align with someone else.

  • Reward/Immunity Challenge: Contestants leapt into the water and swam to a platform where they had to maneuver a buoy along a rope through a series of obstacles. When complete, they then climbed over the obstacle and back into the water where they moved their buoy over and under water obstacles before moving to a platform. Once at the platform, they had to complete a Survivor Puzzle. The winner got immunity and a trip to Survivor Sanctuary with steak, baked potatoes, wine, juice, and cheesecake.

Genevieve won and shared reward with Sue and Teeny. As soon as they sat down, Genevieve proposed voting out Rachel. Sam and Andy came to the same decision on their own; Andy, convinced Rachel would be eliminated, asked her to consider his gameplay as a jury member. This swayed Rachel into targeting Andy over Sam, as she realized Andy knew the jury didn't respect him and he wanted to make a stronger impression. At Tribal Council, Rachel played her idol to block Sam’s vote, and Sue joined her in sending Andy to the jury (to the visible delight of the jury members).

Rachel and Genevieve were set to go head to head as the biggest targets, causing the remaining three to feel as if they were being written off prematurely.

  • Immunity Challenge: Contestants sprinted up from the ocean to the beach where they had to dig through a wall of sand under an obstacle. Once through the sand obstacle they alternately picked up balls and stands from a table which they then stacked on a post while standing on a teetering balance beam. The first to finish won immunity.

Rachel won immunity for the third time, securing her place in the final four. To save himself, Sam told everyone that Genevieve’s idol was fake. However, he failed to convince anyone, even after Genevieve confirmed it to Teeny. At Tribal Council, Rachel convinced an indecisive Teeny to vote for Sam as a backup. Sue played her expiring idol on herself, and she, Sam and Rachel sent Genevieve to the jury.

Notes
  1. ^ The vote resulted in a tie. Per the rules, a second vote was held. As one of the castaways involved in the tie had lost voting privileges, all the remaining castaways with votes were eligible to vote for those players who tied.
  2. ^ Rome played a hidden immunity idol on himself; therefore, one vote against him was not counted.
  3. ^ Rachel played a hidden immunity idol on herself; therefore, three votes against her were not counted.
  4. ^ For winning the final Immunity Challenge, TBA had to assign additional immunity to another player, with the remaining two competing in a fire-making challenge to determine the third finalist; they gave additional immunity to TBA, and TBA defeated TBA in the fire-making challenge.
  5. ^ Rachel played the "safety without power" advantage. This allowed her to leave Tribal Council; she could not vote, but also could not be voted against at this Tribal Council.
