This edition, themed “Edge of Extinction,” features 18 castaways divided into two equal tribes, the Manu Tribe and the Kama Tribe. Four returning players will join the 14 castaways who will be competing for the first time. This season presents a new layer to the game with the introduction of the island known as “Edge of Extinction,” which severely tests the will of the castaways to be the Sole Survivor and what they are willing to endure to make that happen. Those who can withstand the emotionally and physically difficult challenge will be afforded a shot for one of them to get back in the game and continue their quest for $1 million. (CBS.com)

Reward Challenge
Immunity Challenge
Tribal Council
Alliances
Hidden Immunity Idols / Advantages
The Goliath tribe was asked to select two weakest David tribe members (Christian, Lyrsa) and two strongest Goliath tribe members (John, Alison) to compete in a three stage challenge. Each stage had three options that the selected David tribe members got to select for each tribe. The selected David tribe members chose the path of least resistance and, with the expert slide puzzle solver Christian on the team, the David tribe won the challenge and a shelter-making kit.
Winner: David tribe
This challenge included 5 sections: digging in sand under a beam to get through, a ladder, a pole vault, a net slide, then a giant numbered puzzle.
Winner: Goliath tribe
There was no TC for this episode due to Pat being medically evacuated. The boat transporting the tribes back to camp after the immunity challenge hit a hard wave and his spine was compressed, causing medical to evacuate him immediately.
Evacuated: Pat Cusak
Season 37, Episode 2 originally aired on October 3, 2018.
One tribe will bring balance to their game with an immunity win. Also, an early showmance could paint a target on a pair of castaway’s backs.
In Survivor: David vs. Goliath, castaways will be divided into tribes comprised of those who come from a place of privilege and those who have scratched and clawed their way through life to prove themselves, all in an epic battle to become Sole Survivor… and $1 million richer. Read More
A vicious cyclone stirs up emotions on the first day on the island, and the “David” tribe tries to take down the “Goliath” tribe.
