Well here are the spoilers for tonight.
The contestants arrived for the start of the game via four New Zealand military helicopters and were immediately thrust into a brutally physical challenge that results in one topless player and two painful injuries.
Survivor Panama Reward challenge: Contestants dug up pillows and tried to either race back to get their pillows past their goal lines, or tried to prevent their opponents from doing so. As for the topless contestant, Sugar had her top tore off during a challenge. Stephenie's shoulder gets dislocated, and actually shows footage of this being treated by Survivor's medical team in this very challenge. Five minutes into the game, we have a broken toe, a dislocated shoulder, and a topless finish. Parvati is the one who dislocates Stephenie's arm during the challenge. And Boston Rob is the one who gives a broken toe to Rupert. Heroes win the reward challenge.
Immunity Idols: Apparently learning nothing about hidden idols in Samoa, they decide to both liberally toss them around again, and set Russell loose.
It's unclear if there's one available in this episode, but regardless, we'll probably be shown Russell looking for them at some point. It would appear that this never gets old.
Immunity Challenge: (1) Race over the berms to the beach; (2) assemble the various puzzle pieces into a rowboat; (3) row out and get fire; (4) go back to the beach, race back to the wall with fire and planks; (5) put your planks on the wall to build a ladder;and (6) the entire tribe climbs the ladder to light a barrel at the top."
Update: From the TV Guide Channel preview, it appears they've added another puzzle element to this challenge. As if puzzle boats and puzzle ladders weren't enough, now both tribes have to disassemble their ladder rungs from their boats and dump them on a mat. The four puzzle-solvers then have to solve a completely unrelated puzzle. After that, they can get back to work putting the ladder together and climbing up. The Villians win the first immunity challenge.
Sugar is booted.
