Ten contestants entered the new Atlanta house over the course of opening day. Bam Margera replaced Sam Hyde on-site, laying out four house rules and pulling each fish aside for a one-on-one introduction. Victoria arrived first with a contraband vape and kratom; Jet and Ben rummaged her bags before she made it to the dorm. Bingo and Bongo arrived together as a single paired contestant.

After losing her vape and kratom and getting dogpiled by chat, Victoria spiraled into a long bathroom barricade, refused dinner, and slept in confessional.
Bam's solo introductions
Bam pulled each fish aside for a one-on-one introduction; James Drake's Alaska mountain story flagged him as the cast's professional actor.
Bingo and Bongo win the detective job
The Twins were assigned the season's first investigative job. Bongo misissued a $60 ticket past the limit, accused Landon by mistake, and then correctly nailed Victoria as the pokey-stick and vape thief.

Ice Counting: first challenge
The season's first challenge sent each fish to scoop ice into a bucket and count the cubes. Landon won $30; Victoria took $20 for second. Bam threw the rest of the money on the floor for a free-for-all.
