The 18 remaining castaways walk onto a sunny shore, where they find Lakitu, next to a table that's covered with a sheet.

"Good morning everyone!" Lakitu practically shouted. The castaways all stared at each other.

"Everyone... you can drop your buffs... because we are switching tribes." Lakitu announced.

Gasps and excited voices were heard. "Woohoo!" and "Bye tribe!" were heard all around. Everyone then took off their buffs and threw it onto the ground.

Lakitu pulled off the sheet to reveal 18 small packages.

"Pick a buff, any buff." Lakitu said as he walked around and the castaways each chose a small wrapped package. Some people were crossing their fingers. Some people were holding hands with alliance members. Other people were even praying. Everyone was desperate to get onto a good tribe.

Once everyone had taken a package, Lakitu announced that they could rip it open.

"Reveal."

The castaways tore open their packages, with bright green and yellow buffs falling out.

"Go ahead and stand on your tribe mat, and say hello to your new tribe!" Lakitu exclaims.

The castaways stand on their respective mats and introducing themselves to their tribe mates.

"There are now only two tribes- Sambu, wearing yellow, and Lara, wearing green! Head to your camps- you have a lot of strategy to figure out."

The tribes walked away in separate directions, all chatting while heading to their beaches.
