Survivor: Palau is the tenth season of the United States reality show Survivor . Its preview appeared during the final episode of Survivor: Vanuatu . Survivor: Palau premiered on February 17, 2005. The complete season, including the Live Reunion Show, was released on DVD by CBS Home Video on August 29, 2006.
Applications were due on June 22, 2004. Around 800 applicants were selected for an interview between the latter part of July and August 2004. Out of these 800, 48 were chosen as semi-finalists for an interview in Los Angeles during September 2004. From these semi-finalists, 20 were chosen to participate the show between October to December 2004.
It began with twenty contestants. Each one arrived, as instructed by the producers, dressed in street clothes typical of one's career — ostensibly for publicity photos — but this was the only clothing for all of the game. Tom Westman's wife told him to wear swim trunks as underwear, for she remembered the Survivor: Pearl Islands contestants, tricked into street clothes for all of that game. For the second time in Survivor history, the contestants, not the producers, selected the tribes. On the second day of the first episode, that self-selection into two tribes of nine left two not chosen — and gone from the game on the spot. The two tribes were Ulong (named after Ulong Island, one of Palau's tourist spots) and Koror (named after the capital city of Palau). Koror dominated from the very beginning. It won all but three reward challenges, every Immunity Challenge, and the first tribal sweep on Survivor . Having survived alone at Ulong, Stephenie LaGrossa received a map to Koror. Upon her arrival, she received its brown buff. While the players at the finale spoke of this as a merger, the producers have described Palau as the only season without a merge.
Fire Lieutenant Tom Westman defeated advertising executive Katie Gallagher in a 6-1 vote.
Stephenie LaGrossa and Bobby Jon Drinkard competed once again in Survivor: Guatemala where they placed 2nd and 9th respectively. LaGrossa again competed on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains alongside Tom Westman who returned for the first time. They were both on the Heroes Tribe where they placed 19th and 16th respectively.
On January 19, 2010, Jennifer Lyon died at the age of 37 after a 5-year battle with breast cancer, becoming the first former Survivor castaway to die.
The twenty players for Palau began the game by rowing a boat to shore, with the first player of each gender to reach shore to win immunity. However, once ashore, they received no additional instructions nor tribal divisions, and began to work on a common shelter. The next day, Jeff Probst announced that they would now pick tribes via a schoolyard pick, with those who had won immunity getting first pick. In addition, the last male and female remaining would immediately leave the game. The two tribes, Koror and Ulong, then participated in the first reward/immunity challenge, with the winner, Koror, deciding to leave their present beach to another one they had not seen.
As the challenges continued, it quickly became apparent that Ulong was the weaker tribe, while strong leadership by Tom and Ian at Koror kept the tribe intact. Ulong would win no immunity challenges and very few reward challenges. Koror only had to attend tribal council and vote for one of their own once during the first 21 days as part of a double-elimination challenge. Unlike several previous seasons, there was no tribal swap, and Ulong's numbers continued to dwindle. With only two members left, Stephenie and Bobby Jon, going into tribal council, the two faced off in a fire-making challenge, with Stephenie emerging victorious. After spending one night alone, she was instructed to travel to Koror, and given a Koror buff as there was no need for a tribal merge.
Koror developed a core group of five: Tom, Ian, Gregg, Jenn, and Katie, and those on the outside saw them as a threat but were not able to break them. Despite making an immediate strong impression on her new tribe, Stephenie was immediately identified as a target due to her strength. In a twist that would eventually lead to its use in later seasons, one individual immunity challenge required the first player to drop out to spend a night alone on an isolated island. Janu, the one affected, felt the experience liberating, and chose to quit the game at the next tribal council, effectively sparing Stephenie from being voted out for one more round. When Koror was down to six, Tom and Ian worried that they would fall against a potential immunity threat, Gregg, and his close ally Jenn, and plotted with Caryn and Katie to vote out Gregg when they had the chance. Katie, feeling betrayed by Ian, became even more distraught when Ian took Tom with him on a reward instead of her as he had promised. Ian attempted to make amends but Katie still held bad feelings towards him. The final four: Tom, Ian, Katie, and Jenn, opted to allow the next vote to end in a tie between Jenn and Ian, and Ian won in the subsequent fire-making challenge. The final immunity challenge required players to stand on buoys for as long as possible; Katie dropped out early, but both Tom and Ian remained for more than 12 hours. Ian opted to quit the challenge, conceding immunity to Tom, after Tom played on his remorse for hurting Katie's feelings and breaking his promises to her, and Ian felt that dropping out would make up for the emotional damage he had done. Foregoing the usual tribal council, Tom voted Ian out of the game on the spot. At the final tribal council, Tom's leadership and physical ability against Katie's apparent riding-of-coattails, led the jury to vote Tom as the Sole Survivor, 6–1.
^1 Two players were eliminated in a tribal selection process. The contestants were told that there were two immunity necklaces on the beach: one for the first man and one for the first woman to claim them. On day 2, the castaways were told they would divide into 2 tribes of 9 members each, with the two immunity holders making the first picks for their new tribes. Because one man and one women would not be chosen due to the numbers, they would be eliminated. Jonathan and Wanda were the two that were eliminated immediately. Once this process was completed, the power of the immunity necklaces was over.
^2 On Day 12, both tribes went to Tribal Council. Koror, by winning the reward challenge prior to Tribal Council, won the opportunity to vote first, then eat a reward dinner as Ulong spoke with Jeff. Before Ulong voted, Koror voted to give individual immunity to a member of Ulong. Ibrehem was given Immunity in a 3-2-2-1 decision (Bobby Jon and Stephenie each received 2 votes, Angie received 1).
^3 Because Ulong had only 2 members, a fire-making challenge instead of a vote determined the outcome at Tribal Council, and Stephenie won.
^4 There was no reward challenge due to the fact that Stephenie became a member of Koror.
^5 Jenn and Ian competed in a fire-making challenge similar to that of Stephenie and Bobby Jon's. Ian won this challenge, thus sending Jenn home.
Host Jeff Probst surprised the new castaways that there will be an impromptu individual Immunity Challenge as two necklaces are waiting at shore. Though shocked by the twist as they were not divided into tribes yet, the survivors raced to the shoreline. Jonathan and Stephenie made a crucial mistake by jumping off the boat and trying to outswim it, but the boat went far ahead of them. In the end, Ian and Jolanda each won individual Immunity. On Day 2, Probst appeared again and informed the castaways that Ian's and Jolanda's necklaces will soon be gone as they will initiate the schoolyard-style tribe selection process. It was also revealed that the wearers of the necklaces will be ensured that they will have a tribe; because the last man and woman that wasn't picked to join any tribe will automatically go home. Wanda, the last woman was not picked for she was deemed the weakest among the castaways and for being annoying for her singing. Jonathan, the last man, was not picked for he was seemingly unfriendly in an early conversation while Coby and Caryn campaigned for his ouster in case of a 20-person Tribal Council. After Jonathan and Wanda left, Jeff Probst began distributing buffs. Then the blue Ulong (Jolanda's team; entirely composed of young castaways) and the brown Koror (Ian's team; where half of the team are above 35) tribes were born. After the tribe selection process, the tribes continued living in the same beach.
