Episode 1 - S5.E1

The twenty civilian castaways were marooned on a raft off an island in the South China Sea. They were pulled onto a boat with supplies, where Nico instructed them to take the supplies onto their raft and reach the shore. Team captains Corné Krige and Mark Fish were awaiting the castaways' arrival. The team captains selected tribes by school yard pick, forming the tribes, Selatan (Krige) and Utara (Fish). Nico explained to the castaways that both Corné and Mark would partake in all challenges and Tribal Councils, but they won't be able to vote until the very end for the winner, alongside the jury.
