Survivor One World, At this point in the game of Survivor, Colton must think he’s on top of the world. Meanwhile, the ladies of the Salani tribe are feelin’ pretty good about themselves since they seem to have it way more together than the men of Manono.

 But in the game of Survivor, you can never get too comfortable. Before the reward challenge gets underway, Jeff utters three words that strike fear in the hearts of some and foster a renewed sense of hope in others: Drop your buffs.

The new Salani tribe members are Michael, Sabrina, Kat, Jay, Kim, Chelsea, and Troyzan. The new Manono tribe is comprise of Tarzan, Colton, Christina, Alicia, Monica, Leif, and Jonas. Salani seems pretty stacked!

For the challenge, teams have to fill a bucket with holes with water and run it across an obstacle course to fill a larger bucket. The winning tribe gets PB&J sandwiches and coffee with sugar, and they also get to stay on their beach. The losing tribe will have to leave the camp they’ve called home thus far and find a new beach to set up shop at. Manono gets off to a rough start with Monica falling not once, but twice. They come back and come close to winning but Salani fills their bucket first!

Survivor One World, Beach blanket bingo this is not. Our first questions when we learned Survivor: One World’s gender-divided tribes would share the same beach—whether the Castaways would form co-ed alliances and share resources—were resolved in the opening minutes of tonight’s premiere.

The answers? No and no.

So who won tonight’s battle of the sexes at the “remote Polynesian island” otherwise known as Samoa?

The men’s Manono tribe scored One World’s first victory, dodging Tribal Council on a technicality: Tattooed Kourtney, whom we were all ready to nickname Shamu because of her adorable knit cap, fractured her wrist in the first “freefall challenge” and had to leave the game.

Host Jeff Probst (who told contestants not to land on their hands) had to make a quick call (proving again that he is the Man and deserves every Emmy on his mantle), halting the game and summoning medical, who removed the injured girl for X-rays.

Jeff gave the men the option of finishing the challenge or declaring themselves winners by default. Manono chose to take the immunity and send the infuriated Salani women to Tribal Council, who taunted their opponents and accused them of bad sportsmanship.

Why were the women surprised? The men drew a line in the sand at the start: Jeff gave the two tribes 60 seconds to strip a supply truck; while everyone was focused on tossing their provisions overboard, banker Mike casually plundered the women’s stockpile. “I stole everything from them,” he laughed later. “It was just too easy, I had to go get it.”
