Probst immediately divides the new castaways into male and female tribes, and then gives them sixty seconds to grab supplies from a truck. The women don't notice that one of the men, Mike, is stealing stuff from their pile, which is really smart, although once the women figure it out, they don't think it's great. Probst sends the tribes off to their camps and WOMP WOMMMMMP there's only one camp! Which we already knew, since it's been on every preview and in every article written about the season.

The first conflict comes early; there are chickens running around camp and the men and women agree to work together to catch two, with each tribe getting one. Except one of the women (Chelsea) ends up with two chickens and instead of handing one over immediately, she decides to negotiate, which pisses the men off. The women try to get fire from the men in return for the chicken. And then they try to steal fire right in front of everyone. And then they try just asking for fire and hoping they can flirt it out of them. Next, two of the women sneak over at night while the men are sleeping and steal some fire, but they can't keep it going. Finally, Christina makes a deal that the women will weave twenty palm fronds in return for fire, which the men accept. Some of her tribemates are not happy, because she seems to be making alliances with the men.

Also, Colton the Gay (that's practically how they chyron him) would rather hang out with the ladies than the men, although he tells Matt the Dickhead Lawyer that he'll serve as a go-between/spy.

Sabrina finds a Hidden Immunity Idol, but it's pre-designated for the men's tribe, so she has to give it to one of them. She gives it to Colton, because they all know that he'll be the first voted off, which is SO DUMB. He is not someone you need as an ally and giving him the Idol isn't going to win you any favors.

The Challenge is a very basic obstacle course, with the winning tribe getting immunity and flint, and the losers going to Tribal Council. Courtney lands poorly when jumping onto a net and hurts her wrist badly enough that they have to pull her out of the game and do an X-ray. The men are way ahead when this happens. Probst gives them the option that either the women can forfeit, or if the men want, they can finish the challenge and let the chips fall where they may. The men choose to take immunity and the women call their manhood into question for it, like assholes. I mean, I guess it's good strategy to do that, but of COURSE the men are going to take immunity. Why wouldn't they? And who can blame them?

At Tribal Council, Christina (who comes off as kind of a bully) and Alicia (who comes off as kind of a dummy) get in a fight over what happened with the men to get fire, like a yelling and screaming match. Yikes. Probst tells them that Courtney broke her wrist in a few places and needs surgery, so she's out of the game, and they don't need to vote anyone out tonight. Probst gives them a little lecture about getting some structure for their tribe and pulling together, gives them flint, pats them all on their heads, and sends them off.
