Two episodes into "Survivor" Season 49 and a clear disaster tribe has already emerged.
The Kele tribe once again lost the immunity challenge despite having an advantage over the Hina tribe, who were forced to carry coconuts on their backs while navigating an obstacle course. Jawan Pitts of the Uli tribe decided not to place a disadvantage he earned from the journey on the Kele tribe out of pity, since the team had yet to win anything.
And while Kele's strength lies in telling lies to each other, the same can't be said about their puzzle solving skills. The team badly lost, resulting in meeting host Jeff Probst at tribal council.
After blindsiding 26-year-old financial crime consultant Nicole Mazullo in last week's episode, the group of five dwindled to a team of four. Meanwhile, the other two tribes of six remain intact, having avoided tribal council altogether.

Jeff Probst serves as host and executive producer on "Survivor."
The new season of the reality competition series premiered last week and introduced 18 new castaways, including two confirmed to return for the upcoming milestone 50th season.
Read on to find out which member of the Kele tribe became the second contestant voted out of the season.
Who went home on 'Survivor'?
Kimberely “Annie” Davis, a contestant on "Survivor" Season 49, premiering on Sept. 24, 2025.
Kimberly 'Annie' Davis, a 49-year-old musician from Portland, Oregon, became the second person voted out of "Survivor" Season 49. In a 4-1 vote, the Austin resident was blindsided by her tribemates despite assuming she had control over the vote to eliminate Miami entrepreneur Sophi Balerdi.
The betrayal was especially poignant for political comms director Alex Moore, whom Davis assumed was her closest ally. However, Davis had no hard feelings and even gave him a goodbye hug after the votes were read.
"This is why I love 'Survivor' because you never know what's going to happen. I thought I was on top, driving, being the puppetmaster and I was the puppet," Davis said in her exit interview.
"They got me and I'm proud of them honestly," she added. "I didn't see it at all."
