1. Richard Hatch,
congratulations.Copy !req
2. Thank you, Bryant.Copy !req
3. You, uh...Copy !req
4. You clean up nice.Copy !req
5. You look a
lot differentCopy !req
6. than the guy we
saw on the island.Copy !req
7. Okay.Copy !req
8. Are you a
lot different
than the guyCopy !req
9. we got to know
on the island?Copy !req
10. Um, I'm not sure who you think
I was on the island,Copy !req
11. to tell you the truth, but, uh,
I don't thinkCopy !req
12. I'm much different
than that person.Copy !req
13. We saw one poll,
that, um, said,Copy !req
14. "Of the final four,Copy !req
15. who would you least
like to see win?"Copy !req
16. And your total
was equalCopy !req
17. to that of the
other three.Copy !req
18. Uh, does that make this
a bittersweet victory?Copy !req
19. Uh, not for me.Copy !req
20. I-I think, uh,
the press made more...Copy !req
21. made more out of my kind
of being, uh, evil than people.Copy !req
22. The mail I'm getting
is really supportive.Copy !req
23. People are, uh, uh, positive
and-and say,Copy !req
24. "Go get 'em,"
and "We wanted you," and...Copy !req
25. It's good
to hear.Copy !req
26. So I think
it might be just the press.Copy !req
27. That's good
to hear. Kelly,Copy !req
28. close but
no cigar.Copy !req
29. How often do you
think about what
could have been?Copy !req
30. Uh, every day.Copy !req
31. Kelly!Copy !req
32. So much for it
only hurts for a
little while, right?Copy !req
33. Yeah, well, you know.Copy !req
34. Um, it was hard
not to noticeCopy !req
35. at the end
of the programCopy !req
36. that you didn't
have a hugCopy !req
37. or a handshake for Sue.Copy !req
38. Yeah.Copy !req
39. Still hurt?Copy !req
40. Would you?Copy !req
41. I'm over it.
You're over it?Copy !req
42. Yeah. Life goes on.Copy !req
43. It was a mean game, so...Copy !req
44. a lot of mean things, but, uh...Copy !req
45. And you found out
how mean it was?Copy !req
46. I'm over it.Copy !req
47. Oh, yeah.
I told herCopy !req
48. she should, uh...Copy !req
49. What she should have done
was hauled off and hit me...Copy !req
50. when the game was over with,
you know.Copy !req
51. She may hit you before
the hour's over with.Copy !req
52. You never know.Copy !req
53. They couldn't have
done anything.Copy !req
54. You never know.
Good evening and welcome.Copy !req
55. I'm Bryant Gumbel,
and these are the 16 castawaysCopy !req
56. that we've gotten
to know over the last 13 weeks.Copy !req
57. Tonight marks
the very first timeCopy !req
58. they've gathered together
off that islandCopy !req
59. in the South China Sea.Copy !req
60. So consider the next hour
a new Tribal Council,Copy !req
61. one loaded with funCopy !req
62. and consisting
of a much larger tribe.Copy !req
63. For in addition
to the castaways,Copy !req
64. we have assembled an audience
of family, friends, and fans.Copy !req
65. And tonight, we'll hear
from themCopy !req
66. and from you, through exclusive
scientific pollingCopy !req
67. being conducted right now
while we're on the air.Copy !req
68. Tonight, there are no alliances,
no immunity, no rules,Copy !req
69. no deep thoughts about
Survivor's cosmic relevance,Copy !req
70. what it all meant.Copy !req
71. Only the stories the castaways
haven't been able to tell,Copy !req
72. questions they haven't
been able to answer,Copy !req
73. and issues they haven't been
able to resolve until tonight.Copy !req
74. We think you'll want to hear
what they have to sayCopy !req
75. to each other and to you,
and you will right after this.Copy !req
76. As we begin tonight,Copy !req
77. I think we can assume now
that everyone is familiarCopy !req
78. with Susan Hawk, Rudy Boesch,
Kelly Wiglesworth,Copy !req
79. and Richard Hatch, all of whom
made it to the final four.Copy !req
80. But since our other castawaysCopy !req
81. spent less time
before the camera,Copy !req
82. some introductions
might be in order.Copy !req
83. You might recall
that Sonja ChristopherCopy !req
84. and her ukulele were the firstCopy !req
85. to leave the island, followed...Copy !req
86. Followed in order by
B.B. Andersen,Copy !req
87. attorney Stacey Stillman,Copy !req
88. biochemist Ramona Gray,Copy !req
89. our bible-toting
proud virgin Dirk Been,Copy !req
90. the free-spirited Joel Klug,Copy !req
91. and Gretchen Cordy.Copy !req
92. And then
there are those castawaysCopy !req
93. who may be more familiar
to many of us.Copy !req
94. They stayed on the island longerCopy !req
95. and played a critical role
as the jury—Copy !req
96. Greg Buis,
the coconut phone man,Copy !req
97. Jenna Lewis,Copy !req
98. Gervase "Never Nervous"
Peterson,Copy !req
99. America's sweetheart,
Colleen Haskell...Copy !req
100. and the island's
resident doctor,Copy !req
101. the alphabetically-inclined
Sean Kenniff.Copy !req
102. Thanks, Bryant.Copy !req
103. That's all right.
Thank you
very much.Copy !req
104. You said
it was the least objectionable.Copy !req
105. Absolutely.
Is that reallyCopy !req
106. what it came down to?
I felt that
he deserved it.Copy !req
107. You know, he was a great...Copy !req
108. He organized
and engineered the alliance.Copy !req
109. He's Darth Gaydar.Copy !req
110. That's what
we've been calling him.Copy !req
111. The leader of the alliance.Copy !req
112. And I thinkCopy !req
113. he did a fantastic job.Copy !req
114. He's the puppeteer
of the whole allianceCopy !req
115. that you see sitting on
the couch before you, and...Copy !req
116. Colleen, you ad...Copy !req
117. Colleen admitted that
she changed her vote.Copy !req
118. Right.Copy !req
119. Did any of the other,
any of the rest of you—Copy !req
120. were you swayed by anything
you heard that night?Copy !req
121. The numbers.Copy !req
122. Pure and simple.Copy !req
123. Was that the
number deal?Copy !req
124. Yeah, I...Copy !req
125. Did he get it right?Copy !req
126. Was the number seven?Copy !req
127. No, it was number nine.
It was nine.Copy !req
128. He was close, though.Copy !req
129. Everybody picked seven.Copy !req
130. So if Kelly would
have said nine...Copy !req
131. It would have been Kelly.Copy !req
132. she'd be 900
grand richer?Copy !req
133. Ooh!Copy !req
134. That many...Copy !req
135. I know.
Who knew?Copy !req
136. Who knew?
Well, you know.Copy !req
137. Susan...Copy !req
138. Mm.Copy !req
139. Uh...Copy !req
140. You proud of
that speech?Copy !req
141. Yeah. I was pissed
at the time,Copy !req
142. and, yeah, I'm...Copy !req
143. I never regret what I say.Copy !req
144. But, uh,Copy !req
145. yeah, it's over with.Copy !req
146. What happened...?Copy !req
147. At the time,
it worked for me, Bryant.Copy !req
148. No, that's okay.
Hey, it's cool.
It worked, it worked.Copy !req
149. I'm just wondering
what happened, becauseCopy !req
150. when you got voted off,
you were all smiles,Copy !req
151. and you were like,
"You know what?Copy !req
152. "That's good.
I wantedCopy !req
153. "to be in the final four,
and I did.Copy !req
154. And got it right there."Copy !req
155. And then you
came back,Copy !req
156. an hour and
a half later,Copy !req
157. and it's like, zing, pow, bang.Copy !req
158. Well, yeah, when it ended up,
being, uh, Kelly and Rich...Copy !req
159. A long time early on
in the game,Copy !req
160. me and Kelly were...Copy !req
161. I told Kelly,
"Let's stomp him.Copy !req
162. Let's just..."
I wanted to beat him,Copy !req
163. just beat Rich.Copy !req
164. I didn't wantCopy !req
165. the million dollars, becauseCopy !req
166. you get a million bucks,
and you got a lotCopy !req
167. of leeches that come out
from under the leaves.Copy !req
168. If I'm going
to make a million bucks,Copy !req
169. I'd rather work for it.
Yeah.Copy !req
170. And I'm notCopy !req
171. real Miss Nice
like Kelly's nice.Copy !req
172. You know, ICopy !req
173. talk to people,
I'm polite to people,Copy !req
174. but I don't go out
of my way to...Copy !req
175. Yeah.
You know?Copy !req
176. Kiss their backside.Copy !req
177. So, um, I thought,
"Oh, the two of us,Copy !req
178. and then we get down to the end,
and we can burn Rich."Copy !req
179. It would have probably worked...Copy !req
180. Yeah, but then we got...
had the tiff, you know,Copy !req
181. and then Kelly was, like, doing
that lopsided thing, and...Copy !req
182. But didn't you think
the speech...?Copy !req
183. And then it was, like,
"Okay, Kelly,Copy !req
184. "you're not in the alliance,
you're in the alliance.Copy !req
185. "Okay, you tell them
you're not in the alliance,Copy !req
186. but you... you are."Copy !req
187. Yeah.Copy !req
188. "Don't lie to meCopy !req
189. and tell me that you told them."
You know?Copy !req
190. But didn't you
think the speechCopy !req
191. was a little harsh?Copy !req
192. It might have been,Copy !req
193. but, hey, that's the way I am.Copy !req
194. Yeah.
I can take it.Copy !req
195. If you want to give me one,
have at me because...Copy !req
196. No, I'm not going to
pick a fight with you.Copy !req
197. Um...Copy !req
198. I don't
recommended
it, Bryant.Copy !req
199. No way.
No, stay away.Copy !req
200. Kel, in...Copy !req
201. in retrospect, do you...
do you thinkCopy !req
202. about, "Hey, I should
have gone at it with RudyCopy !req
203. instead of Rich?"Copy !req
204. No. What I had
originally thoughtCopy !req
205. when the vote...Copy !req
206. When we voted for these two,
I thought, "Okay,Copy !req
207. "you know, I'm going to stick
with my vote again.Copy !req
208. "I'll stick with Rich,Copy !req
209. "and it will be a tie,Copy !req
210. "and then, they can fight it outCopy !req
211. "and have a tie.Copy !req
212. And then,
whoever is
there is there."Copy !req
213. And that was my initial thought,Copy !req
214. was to do that.Copy !req
215. And I probably should
have stuck with that,
because I knew...Copy !req
216. I knew Sue was going
to be bitter.Copy !req
217. I-I knew she was,
and I told RichCopy !req
218. all that last day...Copy !req
219. You haven't second
guessed yourself?Copy !req
220. I mean, you had the chance
to-to go head-to-headCopy !req
221. with Rich or Rudy.Copy !req
222. And I was going
to keep my vote for RichCopy !req
223. and, you know,
the vote for Sue.Copy !req
224. And then, they could decide
the tie-breakerCopy !req
225. between the two of them,
and then...Copy !req
226. Yeah.Copy !req
227. you know, nobody would have
voted them off, becauseCopy !req
228. that is what would have
happened.Copy !req
229. Right.Copy !req
230. And, uh, but she told me
she wasn't goingCopy !req
231. to let me get down to the three,
and so, I-I...Copy !req
232. I couldn't let her...Copy !req
233. She did. On
the final day,Copy !req
234. she talked, um,Copy !req
235. quite a bit about, uh,Copy !req
236. anticipating and tryingCopy !req
237. to think about
what it was going to be likeCopy !req
238. when asked questions
or talked to by people,Copy !req
239. and-and she knew
something was coming, honey.Copy !req
240. I knew it, I knew it.Copy !req
241. Oh, yeah, we all knew
something was coming.Copy !req
242. This place reacted
like a Super BowlCopy !req
243. during that speech,
I'm telling you.Copy !req
244. Rudy, what were
you thinkingCopy !req
245. when you let
the pole go?Copy !req
246. I, uh...Copy !req
247. I must have fell asleep
or something.Copy !req
248. I mean, you
know, poor Marge.Copy !req
249. Yeah...Copy !req
250. I mean, she's
sitting up there.Copy !req
251. Hi, Mrs. Boesch.Copy !req
252. Um, when you got
home, did sheCopy !req
253. turn to you and go, "Rudy!"Copy !req
254. Not her. The kids.Copy !req
255. My kids are probably all...Copy !req
256. All three girls
turned and said...Copy !req
257. Yeah. I think
they're all sittingCopy !req
258. at, uh, Gillian's tonight,
and, uh...Copy !req
259. I don't know what.Copy !req
260. Probably under the table.Copy !req
261. You know,Copy !req
262. that last...
that last Tribal Council,Copy !req
263. you sat there saying,Copy !req
264. "I need oxygen."Copy !req
265. Mm.
Right?
"I need air."Copy !req
266. Somebody
talk to me.Copy !req
267. I mean, was
that at onceCopy !req
268. the best and worst part
of being on the island,Copy !req
269. the Tribal Councils?Copy !req
270. Worst all the time.Copy !req
271. The-The
last council...
Yeah?Copy !req
272. when we were
sitting and waitingCopy !req
273. for votes and stuff?Copy !req
274. But throughout.
When anybody got...Copy !req
275. I think Richard's
perspectiveCopy !req
276. is a little skewed.Copy !req
277. It was probably the bestCopy !req
278. moment of his
life, you know?Copy !req
279. For the rest
of us...Copy !req
280. Yeah.Copy !req
281. I think in the jury box,
it was kind of a downer.Copy !req
282. No doubt about it.Copy !req
283. He's the only one
that doesn't knowCopy !req
284. what it's like
to be voted off.Copy !req
285. Yeah.
It sucks.Copy !req
286. Exactly.Copy !req
287. But, for example,
I know that,Copy !req
288. for example, Colleen
and Gervase told meCopy !req
289. before that they expected it
when they got it.Copy !req
290. But I also know that Ramona
and Dirk—Copy !req
291. you guys said you were shocked,
that you were stunned.Copy !req
292. Still shocked.
Oh, I...Copy !req
293. And Joel.Copy !req
294. Yeah, it's just...Copy !req
295. Yeah, it's, like,
when-when it comesCopy !req
296. out of left field,
I mean, this isCopy !req
297. like my family, you know,
and then it comesCopy !req
298. out of left field,
and you get the boot,Copy !req
299. and it's just like,
whoa, you know.Copy !req
300. That's, oh...Copy !req
301. That was hurt.
Jenna was
crying.Copy !req
302. a male chauvinist pig.Copy !req
303. Come on now.Copy !req
304. He is not.Copy !req
305. Come on. You
got tell...Copy !req
306. It was the cow.Copy !req
307. He said the cow thing, man.Copy !req
308. This dude said
the cow thing.Copy !req
309. I just stood there
and said,Copy !req
310. "Hey, whatever, man."Copy !req
311. I am not a chauvinist.Copy !req
312. I did not say anythingCopy !req
313. that was chauvinistic.Copy !req
314. Okay, Gerv,
how about that?Copy !req
315. I'll vouch
for that.Copy !req
316. Come on, throw it
out there, man.Copy !req
317. The truth is this—Copy !req
318. I said the comment,
but Joel lives and breathes it.Copy !req
319. Isn't that true?Copy !req
320. I cannot believe
you're doing that right now.Copy !req
321. Okay, it's a
little true.Copy !req
322. How many we got?
It is.Copy !req
323. How many women have you got?Copy !req
324. One, two, three...Copy !req
325. Oh.Copy !req
326. No. That's
not...Copy !req
327. Oh, no,
oh, no.Copy !req
328. We're not goingCopy !req
329. to go there
right now.Copy !req
330. Uh... Sonja and B.B.,Copy !req
331. uh, you were the first ones
to get bounced.Copy !req
332. Uh, you went a lot farther
than any of us,Copy !req
333. but was there
any embarrassment
attendant to that?Copy !req
334. So much anticipation,
and then, as soonCopy !req
335. as you get there,
you're out of there.Copy !req
336. You know, when you're on
the island, it doesn't seem...Copy !req
337. I mean, it happened
for a reason,Copy !req
338. and it was just my tribe there
and Jeff, and it was okay.Copy !req
339. But then you come back home,Copy !req
340. and 40 million people
are watching you get voted off.Copy !req
341. It's sort of humiliating, but...Copy !req
342. But it gave you
a bigger platform.Copy !req
343. Yes. So...Copy !req
344. Right?Copy !req
345. B.B., did it feel that awful?Copy !req
346. Well, I, you know, where I...
helped engineer my own demise,Copy !req
347. I-I felt pretty stupid later on.Copy !req
348. Um... probably one
of the worst decisionsCopy !req
349. I've ever made, and, uh...Copy !req
350. That's all right.Copy !req
351. I regretted it,Copy !req
352. but, you know,
that's the way the game is.Copy !req
353. You make an impulsive decision,
and... and you regret it.Copy !req
354. But, uh...Copy !req
355. Let me close out
this segmentCopy !req
356. with a question to you,Copy !req
357. uh, Rudy.Copy !req
358. Throughout the weeks,Copy !req
359. we heard some of your comments
about homosexuals.Copy !req
360. Didn't like them
in a homosexual way.Copy !req
361. "Queers,"Copy !req
362. et cetera, et cetera.Copy !req
363. And yet in the
final analysis,Copy !req
364. you wound up voting
for a gay guy,Copy !req
365. who you believed in,
and who you trusted.Copy !req
366. I'm curious if the
experience on the islandCopy !req
367. changed any of your
preconceptionsCopy !req
368. about the sexual
orientation of
individuals?Copy !req
369. Nah, nah.Copy !req
370. You've got to love him.Copy !req
371. B.B.:
That wasn't the answer
you wanted, Bryant.Copy !req
372. You want
to try it again?Copy !req
373. It's not true.Copy !req
374. We set up an alliance,Copy !req
375. and, uh,
I gave him my word,Copy !req
376. and my word is good.Copy !req
377. Uh, the reason
I called him queer...Copy !req
378. The reason I called him queerCopy !req
379. is so all my good
SEAL team buddiesCopy !req
380. will know
what I'm talking about.Copy !req
381. When we come back— I'll get
to it when we come back.Copy !req
382. When we come back,
more from the castaways.Copy !req
383. And later, we'll hear
what you have to sayCopy !req
384. as we get the results
of a special pollCopy !req
385. that we're conducting tonight.Copy !req
386. All that
and a few surprises, too,Copy !req
387. when Survivor: The Reunion
returns right after this.Copy !req
388. Ten days inside my showerCopy !req
389. with this monkey and-and
these giant insects.Copy !req
390. And I forced myself to live
off of the dirty bath waterCopy !req
391. and whatever hair I could
collect from the drain.Copy !req
392. Thank you, Bryant.Copy !req
393. Thank you very much.Copy !req
394. Thank you.Copy !req
395. How do you like that?Copy !req
396. I didn't pick them, Sean.Copy !req
397. Was that talent or what?Copy !req
398. See? How can you ignore
talent like that?Copy !req
399. And they selected you!Copy !req
400. I know. Unbelievable.Copy !req
401. Unbelievable.Copy !req
402. And they selected you!Copy !req
403. It's their own fault.Copy !req
404. Absolutely.Copy !req
405. Man, you know what?Copy !req
406. Hey, Rudy,
is this true what I hear,Copy !req
407. that you applied actually
to be on Survivor II?Copy !req
408. Yeah.Copy !req
409. You wanted to
do it again?Copy !req
410. Till he wins.Copy !req
411. I'm going to keep trying
till I win.Copy !req
412. You know—Copy !req
413. Go ahead, Rich.Copy !req
414. You know, Bryant,Copy !req
415. Rudy's comments, I mean,Copy !req
416. he comes
from a different generation,Copy !req
417. but he is a kind and gentle
and honest and amazing manCopy !req
418. who-who I feelCopy !req
419. um, uh, really close to.Copy !req
420. We have a great
relationship.Copy !req
421. Not that close.Copy !req
422. And the comments
you hearCopy !req
423. are good-hearted.Copy !req
424. Um, the words that you
hear often sound as ifCopy !req
425. they're, uh, um, un-P.C.,
if you will,Copy !req
426. but that's not
what's in his heart.Copy !req
427. He also gave,
we should note—Copy !req
428. he's too shy and too
modest to admit it—Copy !req
429. he's a legitimate hero
who gave 45 years
Absolutely.Copy !req
430. of service to his country.Copy !req
431. And Rudy...Copy !req
432. I was-I was
reading about...Copy !req
433. I was reading about
some of your adventures.Copy !req
434. Is this true that you and four
other guys spent 18 monthsCopy !req
435. on a decommissioned ship
in Hong Kong after the war?Copy !req
436. Nine months.
Nine months.Copy !req
437. Was that harder than this?Copy !req
438. Yeah.Copy !req
439. Was the company better?Copy !req
440. Uh... I was there with a guy
named John Kennedy,Copy !req
441. and, uh, when Kennedy
made president, I checked,Copy !req
442. 'cause if it was the same guy,Copy !req
443. I would have been
the vice president.Copy !req
444. He was a crook from way back.Copy !req
445. We can assume it wasn't.Copy !req
446. You know, speaking
of the physical rigors there,Copy !req
447. um, Ramona, talk to me about
the smell on the island.Copy !req
448. The reason I ask
is because RamonaCopy !req
449. described it as the smellCopy !req
450. of, what, hot garbage?Copy !req
451. Yes.Copy !req
452. I mean, we were all funky,
and...Copy !req
453. after about
three or four days,Copy !req
454. you know, we were sweating,
we're working,Copy !req
455. we're traipsing
through the jungle...Copy !req
456. we just all stank, and so,Copy !req
457. yeah, it was hot garbage.Copy !req
458. It was disgusting.
Not that bad.Copy !req
459. It was bad.
Gretchen, how
long did it takeCopy !req
460. to get over the
self-consciousnessCopy !req
461. of the way you smelled?Copy !req
462. A couple of days.
You know what...Copy !req
463. 'Cause we all smelled bad.Copy !req
464. I don't remember it.
I honestly didn't.Copy !req
465. I mean, we were swimmingCopy !req
466. all the time, so I don't...Copy !req
467. We all stank.Copy !req
468. I don't recollect
any odor either.Copy !req
469. Besides Sean's odor.Copy !req
470. That's the only one.
Yeah, my own.Copy !req
471. Greg was pretty smelly.Copy !req
472. I wouldn't say hot garbage.Copy !req
473. So nobody stunk?Copy !req
474. There wasn't any
hot garbage?Copy !req
475. No.Copy !req
476. Not in our camp.Copy !req
477. Let's take a question
from the audience.Copy !req
478. We've got a young lady
up hereCopy !req
479. who's anxious
to ask something. Yes?Copy !req
480. This question is for everybody.Copy !req
481. I was just curious as to what
was the first thing that you ateCopy !req
482. once you got off the island,Copy !req
483. and if any of you are ever going
to eat rice again?Copy !req
484. Love rice.Copy !req
485. Ooh, rice.
I know,
I still eat rice.Copy !req
486. I buy rice...
Can't get enough
of rice.Copy !req
487. Actually, the first thing
I had was...Copy !req
488. I had shrimp.
I had a peanut butter
and jelly sandwichCopy !req
489. Jenna bought for me.Copy !req
490. Sean, you have pizza?Copy !req
491. It was all about
pizza for me.Copy !req
492. Gerv and I hit Pizza HutCopy !req
493. in Kota Kinabalu.
Who lost the most weightCopy !req
494. on the island?Copy !req
495. Rich.
Rich.
Rich.Copy !req
496. Are you kidding?
How much? How much?Copy !req
497. Uh, maybe 34 pounds, I think.Copy !req
498. And I lost 100
before I got there.Copy !req
499. Wow. Wow.Copy !req
500. I needed it.Copy !req
501. That's a nice look, Rich.Copy !req
502. Thank you.Copy !req
503. Oh.Copy !req
504. Who gained all their
weight back already?Copy !req
505. Let me talk a little bit
about, um...Copy !req
506. what some of you think
is a dirty word, "alliance."Copy !req
507. Um... dirty
word, Kelly?Copy !req
508. Why did you feel
so bad about it?Copy !req
509. 'Cause it, I don't know,
it made the gameCopy !req
510. not fun anymore.Copy !req
511. It was just sort of like, okay,Copy !req
512. stand up in line and leaveCopy !req
513. whenever everybody decides
for you to, you know.Copy !req
514. But the game was
a little more fun
than ours though.Copy !req
515. Yeah.Copy !req
516. 'Cause we're over here.
Well, you know.Copy !req
517. No, for real, though.Copy !req
518. I look back
at the first show,Copy !req
519. and it's like,
man, that was fun.Copy !req
520. We're jumping off the boat,Copy !req
521. working as a team,
it's all innocent.Copy !req
522. And then you get to, like,
the last couple shows,Copy !req
523. you know, and you're just like,
and it's like, "Ugh," you know?Copy !req
524. It's like, just battle.
Too nasty?Copy !req
525. And, yeah,
it just, it was just...Copy !req
526. Joel, I heard
you said something
very interesting.Copy !req
527. You said that the gen-xersCopy !req
528. in your tribe
weren't really intoCopy !req
529. Tagi-like alliances.Copy !req
530. What does gender have...?Copy !req
531. I mean, what
does generation
have to do with it?Copy !req
532. It's age group, I think.
You think?Copy !req
533. We were younger,
we kind of, were hanging out,Copy !req
534. and we went there
for a situationCopy !req
535. that was a little bit different,
I think, maybe than theirs.Copy !req
536. Right away when they got there,Copy !req
537. they were very corporate,
very structured.Copy !req
538. And if you look
at our younger generation,Copy !req
539. we're just all kind of
doing our own thing.Copy !req
540. We don't want to follow
a certain path.Copy !req
541. And that how we're kind of doing
things and that's what we did.Copy !req
542. There's nothing wrong with that.
B.B. was happy
about that.Copy !req
543. Gretchen, you're sitting
there disagreeing. Why?Copy !req
544. No, I disagree.Copy !req
545. I think, you know,
you're either the type of personCopy !req
546. who gets
sucked in emotionallyCopy !req
547. or you're the type of person
who can separate yourself.Copy !req
548. And Rich and I even
talked about this,Copy !req
549. and he, going into it, thought,Copy !req
550. I'm not getting
emotionally involved.Copy !req
551. And perhaps that's whyCopy !req
552. he didn't do well when he was
asked about everybody's familiesCopy !req
553. and what they were wearing
and stuffCopy !req
554. because he was able
to separate himself.Copy !req
555. I can meet someone
for five minutesCopy !req
556. and not be able to emotionally
separate myself from them.Copy !req
557. But it was still
a game though.Copy !req
558. Yeah, it wasn't, though.Copy !req
559. I think the alliance
was appropriate.Copy !req
560. You thought it was fair?Copy !req
561. Absolutely.Copy !req
562. I-I suspected that-that if, uh,
if the Pagong tribeCopy !req
563. didn't-didn't establish
some kind of alliance,Copy !req
564. they'd be dead.Copy !req
565. And I felt that,Copy !req
566. and I think I mentioned it
to Gretchen early on.Copy !req
567. But, uh...Copy !req
568. But on
the other hand, B.B.,Copy !req
569. you said you could
never lie about it.Copy !req
570. Well,
that's all part of it.Copy !req
571. No, but I think you can belong
to an allianceCopy !req
572. and not lie about it.Copy !req
573. If someone asks
if you belong to an allianceCopy !req
574. you say, "Sure. So, what?"Copy !req
575. Yeah, they went a
step further than
we were going to do.Copy !req
576. We were going to have
our team hold together.Copy !req
577. But he just went a step further,
he was a little smarter.Copy !req
578. You know who I lied to?Copy !req
579. I lied to Jeff Probst,
the host.Copy !req
580. That's who I lied to.Copy !req
581. Well, so did Susan.Copy !req
582. Yeah, well,
had to though.Copy !req
583. Susan, you were
a bad liar, too.Copy !req
584. A terrible liar.Copy !req
585. Oh, I'm, like awful.Copy !req
586. I even told these guys,Copy !req
587. oh, I lie so bad.
You looked
right at himCopy !req
588. and went, "No.Copy !req
589. No."Copy !req
590. It was bad. It was bad.Copy !req
591. So, I was glad
to have that opportunity.Copy !req
592. Listen, I needed
the allianceCopy !req
593. to stay alive and I knew
it was going on, believe me.Copy !req
594. We have another
question up here.Copy !req
595. Yes, young lady?Copy !req
596. Um, this question
is for the whole group.Copy !req
597. How do you feel now that you've
seen the show on television?Copy !req
598. Awesome.
Love the show.Copy !req
599. Great.
Great show.Copy !req
600. A lot of what you see out
there— I'm sorry, Jenn.Copy !req
601. A lot of what you
see out there is
very manufactured.Copy !req
602. I mean, while my,
you know, lightheartednessCopy !req
603. and whatever you want
to say about my intellect,Copy !req
604. is a close approximation
of the real thing,Copy !req
605. everyone here, including myself,
is a lot deeper characterCopy !req
606. than anything that you saw
on television.Copy !req
607. Does anyone think
they were depictedCopy !req
608. in a fashion
that was eitherCopy !req
609. unfair or inaccurate?Copy !req
610. Not myself,
but I think Greg was.Copy !req
611. Oh, I would agree with that.Copy !req
612. He was a lot
more boisterous.Copy !req
613. He's very intelligent
and he's not like a goofball...Copy !req
614. And I got to
stick up for Sean.Copy !req
615. Sean is actually
very intelligent.Copy !req
616. Sean is not goofy?Copy !req
617. He is not. He's
very intelligent.Copy !req
618. Thank you very much.Copy !req
619. You know, he said the
show is manufactured.Copy !req
620. I don't want people
to get the wrong idea,Copy !req
621. because I think
they really didCopy !req
622. a good job at depictingCopy !req
623. the sequence and the process
pretty accurately.Copy !req
624. I mean, CBS, Mark Burnett,
and Craig Piligian,Copy !req
625. those people put together
a program...Copy !req
626. You got the
million, Rich.Copy !req
627. You don't need
to do this.Copy !req
628. No, amazing.Copy !req
629. You got the million.Copy !req
630. The camera phone...
out of this world.Copy !req
631. Coming up... coming up,Copy !req
632. we're going to talk about
romance on the island—Copy !req
633. what did and didn't happen.Copy !req
634. And Jeff Probst joins us
from AustraliaCopy !req
635. with the first look
at what lies in storeCopy !req
636. for the next Survivor castaways.Copy !req
637. That's right after this.Copy !req
638. But in my years growing up
on a Wisconsin dairy farm,Copy !req
639. I've learned many different
survival techniques.Copy !req
640. For instance,
hunting for firewood.Copy !req
641. Freeze, firewood, now!
On the ground!Copy !req
642. That was good!Copy !req
643. That's the first time
I've seen that since I made it.Copy !req
644. My mom was so disappointed
with that film.Copy !req
645. She didn't like it so much
it's the only thingCopy !req
646. she wouldn't copy,
out of this whole thing.Copy !req
647. After that,Copy !req
648. they put you
on the island with us?Copy !req
649. Yeah, well, I mean,
I'm good with a shotgun.Copy !req
650. Imagine what the peopleCopy !req
651. who are applying for the
second one are thinking.Copy !req
652. They've seen yours,
they've seen Sean's.Copy !req
653. I mean, my goodness.Copy !req
654. B.B.:
We're going to have
some fruitcakes.Copy !req
655. Let's go back
for another question.Copy !req
656. Yes, ma'am?Copy !req
657. Yes, my question
is for Colleen and Greg.Copy !req
658. Was there a budding romance
going on between you twoCopy !req
659. while you were on the island,Copy !req
660. and is there something
going on now?Copy !req
661. A two-part question.Copy !req
662. I've talked about it enough.Copy !req
663. And, uh, and so, I'm
going to pass the...Copy !req
664. pass the buck.Copy !req
665. Well, um...Copy !req
666. Actually,
I want it back.Copy !req
667. Nothing happened.Copy !req
668. Nothing happened.Copy !req
669. I was covering
for another relationshipCopy !req
670. going on.Copy !req
671. All I'm
going to say.Copy !req
672. That's all I'm
going to say.Copy !req
673. Okay. Pick a number.Copy !req
674. Pick a number.Copy !req
675. How would you characterize
the relationshipCopy !req
676. on the island with Colleen?Copy !req
677. With Colleen, um...
Yeah.Copy !req
678. It was excellent;
we had a great timeCopy !req
679. together, and, uh...Copy !req
680. it wouldn't have been
the same at all.Copy !req
681. We both... played
really well togetherCopy !req
682. and, uh, inspired each other
to have a great time.Copy !req
683. Well, who's idea was it
to tease the audienceCopy !req
684. and-and leave everyone thinkingCopy !req
685. that maybe
something happened?Copy !req
686. We were there
to makeCopy !req
687. a TV show, I mean...Copy !req
688. we were there.
Is that to say
it was your idea?Copy !req
689. Sex and violence.Copy !req
690. Duh!Copy !req
691. They want it.
They got it.Copy !req
692. So it was your idea?
I wouldn't sayCopy !req
693. it was either person's idea—
we just had fun.Copy !req
694. It was all a
joke, real...Copy !req
695. I mean, w-when people
ask you questions,Copy !req
696. you know what they want,
so give 'em the answer.Copy !req
697. I-It's more interesting
and exciting.Copy !req
698. What about the
second part of the
lady's question?Copy !req
699. What about since the island?
No.Copy !req
700. Are you going to tell
the truth this time?Copy !req
701. I live in
Miami; he livesCopy !req
702. in Colorado.Copy !req
703. So what?Copy !req
704. They don't have planes
in either place is
what you're telling us?Copy !req
705. I...Copy !req
706. I mean, I'm-I'mCopy !req
707. 23.Copy !req
708. Did I miss
something?Copy !req
709. She's-she's...Copy !req
710. trying to say
"No, there isn't,Copy !req
711. at this point."
I mean, you know,Copy !req
712. young, have fun,
see lots of people. Yeah.
Yeah.Copy !req
713. I mean, look, there
are a lot of people who
thought strange things.Copy !req
714. They thoughtCopy !req
715. Sean... and Jenna.Copy !req
716. See, now, we
did have sex.Copy !req
717. No.
Okay, we made
an agreement...Copy !req
718. That's...Copy !req
719. not to talk about that.Copy !req
720. That's sarcasm.Copy !req
721. I do think we should talkCopy !req
722. a little bit about,
um, Joel and Gervase.Copy !req
723. Yes!Copy !req
724. You know...
It had to come out.Copy !req
725. Let's bring it out.Copy !req
726. Oh, my God,
they're out.Copy !req
727. Well, now, wait
a second, though.Copy !req
728. I did read
that Richard...
Richard saidCopy !req
729. that on the day before Colleen
was complaining about himCopy !req
730. walking around
buck nekkid,
Absolutely.Copy !req
731. that Colleen and
Gervase and Greg
And Greg.Copy !req
732. had been sitting
around the fire nekkid.Copy !req
733. Lying around
on top of each otherCopy !req
734. near the fire.
True?Copy !req
735. Yeah.Copy !req
736. Sans clothes?Copy !req
737. Sans clothing?
Clothes...Copy !req
738. Clothing, sans
clothing?Copy !req
739. Yeah.
Other languages.Copy !req
740. I mean, it's raining; you're
drying off, but I'm not goingCopy !req
741. to play that game, like,
"You were naked, too."Copy !req
742. You know, I mean,
come on.
Oh!Copy !req
743. Oh!
More naked than she is.Copy !req
744. You were naked?Copy !req
745. I mean, yeah, I was.Copy !req
746. There you are.Copy !req
747. All right,
not like that, though,Copy !req
748. not like that.Copy !req
749. What was the deal
there, Richard?Copy !req
750. Um, nudity is just something
I'm comfortable with.Copy !req
751. I mean, it's, uh...
and it's a deserted island,Copy !req
752. 110 degrees in the middle
of the South...Copy !req
753. South Sea...
Deserted?Copy !req
754. A few people on
the camera crew,Copy !req
755. and I've got to say,
"Hey, Chris." My son.Copy !req
756. I forgot to say hi to my son.
Hey, you.Copy !req
757. It didn't bother
you that it might've
offended some folks?Copy !req
758. Um, when it did offend
some people,Copy !req
759. I immediately put
my clothes back on.Copy !req
760. It was my birthday; I'd intended
to spend the entire day nude.Copy !req
761. So it was your
birthday suit.
Yeah, absolutely.Copy !req
762. We intended to kick you
off the island.
Absolutely. They tried.Copy !req
763. But I... but I...Copy !req
764. but my intention
isn't to offend.Copy !req
765. It was just to be comfortable,Copy !req
766. and, actually, the Tagi team
had plenty of timeCopy !req
767. to get used to that, and got...
and didn't...Copy !req
768. Once we combined,
it changed a little bit,Copy !req
769. so I had no trouble
putting clothing onCopy !req
770. Yeah.
most of the time.Copy !req
771. Being from Tagi,
I-I would thinkCopy !req
772. that you'd be more
in the alliance thing,Copy !req
773. and I think
that was everybody's problem—Copy !req
774. was that you were alone...
and naked,Copy !req
775. like, naked and alone...Copy !req
776. where Gervase and I
were purely tryingCopy !req
777. to come to the bottom
of an age-old myth,Copy !req
778. and Colleen was judging.Copy !req
779. Let's-let's get
another... let's
get another question.Copy !req
780. Yes, what's
your question?Copy !req
781. Um, so, what
was it likeCopy !req
782. eating the bugs:
the live worms and stuff?Copy !req
783. Whoo!
Gervase should answer that.Copy !req
784. Gerv.
Stacey.Copy !req
785. Yeah, Gerv and Stacey.
Stacey.Copy !req
786. Um... everybody just said,Copy !req
787. "Why not show my poker face?"
and that was my poker face.Copy !req
788. That was
your poker face?
Oh, yeah.Copy !req
789. I want to play
with you.
Yeah.Copy !req
790. That was the worst thing
I've ever done in my life.Copy !req
791. But Stacey got it done.Copy !req
792. I didn't think it was that bad.Copy !req
793. Yeah, look what happened
to her, though.Copy !req
794. They voted her off.
Yeah!Copy !req
795. Gervase, you had
a real hard time with it,Copy !req
796. and the minute
Stacey got her two down,Copy !req
797. you wasted no time in...
ejecting.Copy !req
798. Oh, yeah, I spit them out.Copy !req
799. Yeah.
I...Copy !req
800. The idea was to take 'em,
throw 'em in my mouth,Copy !req
801. chew two times and swallow.Copy !req
802. When I went to swallow 'em,
they crawled across my mouth.Copy !req
803. Oh.Copy !req
804. Yeah.Copy !req
805. Stacey, what was
your take on it?Copy !req
806. How did... how did
you devour them?Copy !req
807. You know, I just really wantedCopy !req
808. to kick his butt...Copy !req
809. and I knew I was in a precarious
position in my group,Copy !req
810. and I knew that winning that
for themCopy !req
811. Uh-huh.
might save me
a little longer.Copy !req
812. Um...Copy !req
813. we've already had
the handshake here between,Copy !req
814. uh, Susan and Kelly.
Yeah.Copy !req
815. Let me bring back some, um,Copy !req
816. some other
infamous pairings,Copy !req
817. can we say?Copy !req
818. Um, Stacey and Rudy...Copy !req
819. sitting next
to each other.Copy !req
820. Yep, Rudy and I are
great friends now, actually.Copy !req
821. You know,
we talked about this today.Copy !req
822. I got a T-shirt onCopy !req
823. that says "Rudy loves Stacey."Copy !req
824. Good friend of mine
gave it to me.Copy !req
825. Yeah.Copy !req
826. Um, another good pairingCopy !req
827. didn't get along real well: JoelCopy !req
828. and B.B.Copy !req
829. Who, B.B.?Copy !req
830. Oh, what?
We loved each other.Copy !req
831. We just...
Oh, buddy.Copy !req
832. We just didn't show it.Copy !req
833. Now you do?
Well, I guess,Copy !req
834. you know what I think is...
I think that,Copy !req
835. you know, what, 150 years
from now,Copy !req
836. I'll be just like B.B.Copy !req
837. Oh...Copy !req
838. And I can't even commentCopy !req
839. on that, because
Years from now...Copy !req
840. he's so young,
he'll never make it.Copy !req
841. I know that you, uh,
you rationalizedCopy !req
842. washing your clothes
in the water can,
Sure.Copy !req
843. but what if Joel had done that?Copy !req
844. How would you've reacted?Copy !req
845. Well, I think he
did, only I thinkCopy !req
846. he went over to the water hole
and did it.Copy !req
847. But, you know,
we all wash our clothesCopy !req
848. in our drinking water,
if you stop and think
about it, y-you know?Copy !req
849. I didn't.
Don't you drink the water
that-that-that...Copy !req
850. In the drinking water?Copy !req
851. B.B.:
Sure, I mean, before you drink.Copy !req
852. Oh, bef...Copy !req
853. Oh, oh, I never did.Copy !req
854. B.B.:
I'm not going to win
this argument.Copy !req
855. I wouldn't do it again.
No, you're not,
but that's okay.Copy !req
856. We'll go to
another question.Copy !req
857. Yes, sir?
Good evening.Copy !req
858. While you were
on the island,Copy !req
859. you were with a lot
of crew members.Copy !req
860. What was that like,
not having any privacy?Copy !req
861. What was it like
not having any privacy?Copy !req
862. That's what I was trying
to get to— it wasn't a plug.Copy !req
863. If you picture
what you saw us doing,Copy !req
864. imagine the people
behind the scenes:Copy !req
865. the-the-the-the
cameramen and women,Copy !req
866. the sound people,
in the torrential rainsCopy !req
867. all 24 hours a day
following us around.Copy !req
868. They were absolutely,
utterly amazing.Copy !req
869. Unbelievable crew.
Thank you.Copy !req
870. Did you not...Copy !req
871. Did you not
have any privacy,Copy !req
872. or did you just, at
some point, just startCopy !req
873. to look at them
as, like, plants?Copy !req
874. They were like trees.
Yeah.Copy !req
875. They were everywhere.
I mean, one time,Copy !req
876. actually, Pagong snuck away
to the mobile camp,Copy !req
877. Yeah, we did.
but they found us, like,Copy !req
878. in three minutes.
We thought we had 'em.Copy !req
879. We thought
we totally fooled 'em,
and they found us somehow.Copy !req
880. I don't know how.
They'd still
find you?Copy !req
881. Yeah.Copy !req
882. Even though we knew
they were videotaping usCopy !req
883. 24/7, I-I was
confident that...Copy !req
884. and I took Mark,
the executive director's, wordCopy !req
885. that he wasn't
going to show anything—Copy !req
886. you know, us going
to the bathroomCopy !req
887. or-or maybe naked if we...
if we didn't want to, um...Copy !req
888. Nothing
embarrassing, then.
you know, but, I mean,Copy !req
889. because his vision
that it was going to beCopy !req
890. that this was a family show,
so-so I felt confident.Copy !req
891. The only embarrassing
thing they showCopy !req
892. is that little dance
Rich did on the beach.Copy !req
893. What was that?Copy !req
894. I have no idea.
I don't even rememberCopy !req
895. doing it till I saw.Copy !req
896. That was Rudy's
fresh and fruity day.Copy !req
897. There you go.Copy !req
898. I mean, we-we've
got the tape again.Copy !req
899. I mean, check this dance out—
I mean, what do we...Copy !req
900. what do we call that?Copy !req
901. I have no idea.Copy !req
902. Automatic reaction.
Hey, you know what?Copy !req
903. It was natural; it was real;
it was inspired.Copy !req
904. Unplanned. Thanks, Bryant.Copy !req
905. Let's go to another
question. Yes, ma'am?Copy !req
906. Um, my question
is for Jenna. Um, Jenna,Copy !req
907. one of the saddest moments
on the showCopy !req
908. is when, um, you didn't get
your videotape.Copy !req
909. Do you regret leaving
your daughters behind
for 39 days?Copy !req
910. No, I don't. I regret my mom
not getting the tapeCopy !req
911. out in time.Copy !req
912. I made... I made the conscious
decision to leave them.Copy !req
913. Um, I was just sad
because I didn't get my video.Copy !req
914. Everybody had to leave behind
loved ones.Copy !req
915. I left my two little daughtersCopy !req
916. who are sitting
right over there,Copy !req
917. but they came out uns...
unscarred from it,Copy !req
918. and they had a great time
with Nana in the process.Copy !req
919. Um, before we
leave this section,Copy !req
920. uh, which we're calling
"Friends and Enemies,"Copy !req
921. Rudy, I'm going to end
with you again,Copy !req
922. because, uh, I'm familiar
with some tough commentsCopy !req
923. you had about these folks.Copy !req
924. "Don't call me.
I won't call you."Copy !req
925. "These are not people
I'd pick as friends."Copy !req
926. Change your mind?Copy !req
927. Uh...Copy !req
928. not really.Copy !req
929. Rudy!Copy !req
930. And he means that
in a really kind way.Copy !req
931. I know!Copy !req
932. I, uh, you know, I-I hang around
with military guysCopy !req
933. that don't swear
and all that stuff, and, uh...Copy !req
934. Problem is you can't
get rid of us.Copy !req
935. You're stuck with us.Copy !req
936. That's right.
We'll always be
hounding you now.Copy !req
937. Coming to your house
for Christmas.Copy !req
938. Yep.Copy !req
939. I wouldn't doubt that.Copy !req
940. Hey, look,Copy !req
941. while we've been on the
air, we've been conducting
a, uh, scientific pollCopy !req
942. to find out what you
and other viewers thinkCopy !req
943. about who won and who didn't.Copy !req
944. The first results are in.Copy !req
945. We're going to check 'em out
when we come backCopy !req
946. right after this.Copy !req
947. Maryanne and me,
born on a farm,Copy !req
948. who could do no harm,
but honestly,Copy !req
949. don't I have a little charm?Copy !req
950. Oh, my God!Copy !req
951. What the hell was that?Copy !req
952. Oh, my God!Copy !req
953. Oh, my God!
Who wrote that?Copy !req
954. Were there any
other linesCopy !req
955. to the poem
that we missed?Copy !req
956. W-What's that?Copy !req
957. Were there any
other linesCopy !req
958. to that poem
that we missed?Copy !req
959. Yeah, that was just
a little bit of me.Copy !req
960. We liked the
hairdo then, too.Copy !req
961. Oh, you liked that?
It was pretty interesting.Copy !req
962. We, um, as noted,Copy !req
963. we ran a couple
of poll questions this evening,Copy !req
964. and so we're going
to share the resultsCopy !req
965. with some folks who...Copy !req
966. um, of the 25-plus million
who watched youCopy !req
967. on a somewhat regular basis.Copy !req
968. Let's go to the first question.Copy !req
969. Did the right person
win tonight?Copy !req
970. Only 31% said yes.Copy !req
971. Doesn't cost
you anything.Copy !req
972. Second question—
who would you have voted for?Copy !req
973. 45% went for Rudy.Copy !req
974. 42% went to Kelly.Copy !req
975. Richard 11%, Susan 2%.Copy !req
976. Cool.Copy !req
977. Did the winner play fair?Copy !req
978. How you guessing this
one broke down, Rich?Copy !req
979. Oh... no idea.Copy !req
980. No idea.Copy !req
981. I imagine people
think I didn't,Copy !req
982. but I truly believeCopy !req
983. I played as fair
and ethically as
I could have.Copy !req
984. Take a look at the numbers.Copy !req
985. 61% think you played fair.Copy !req
986. Awesome.Copy !req
987. And lastly,
this goes back to the questionCopy !req
988. we were talking about
about alliances,Copy !req
989. and why some people
felt skittish about it.Copy !req
990. The question was,
for the $1 million,Copy !req
991. would you do
what the winner did to win?Copy !req
992. And almost half...Copy !req
993. Got naked?
That's amazing.Copy !req
994. Walk around naked?Copy !req
995. If that's what
was required.Copy !req
996. I think if you'd ask
those people,Copy !req
997. and you'd say "If I
guaranteed you $1 million,"Copy !req
998. that you'd have
about 95% of themCopy !req
999. would do exactly
what Richard did.Copy !req
1000. Well, you
know what?Copy !req
1001. We got to hand
it to Rich.Copy !req
1002. Up front, he said,Copy !req
1003. "I'm going to win
the million."Copy !req
1004. Paycheck's already written.
You were certain of it.Copy !req
1005. I played cocky.
In my interview tapeCopy !req
1006. and in walking
into CBS' interview,Copy !req
1007. I said,
"What are you waiting for?Copy !req
1008. "I know you're going to pick me.Copy !req
1009. "What you don't know is
I'm going to win the million,Copy !req
1010. "and what you need to know
for next yearCopy !req
1011. is I'm going
to host the next show."Copy !req
1012. So...Copy !req
1013. I just played cocky,Copy !req
1014. and they picked me.Copy !req
1015. And I'm not hosting
the next show, so...Copy !req
1016. And yet, the woman to your rightCopy !req
1017. is the only castaway
that never got oneCopy !req
1018. single ouster
vote— not one.Copy !req
1019. She's awesome.Copy !req
1020. Not a one.Copy !req
1021. And man, could
she win immunity.Copy !req
1022. Let me talk
about fameCopy !req
1023. a little bit.Copy !req
1024. Um, for how many of youCopy !req
1025. has this show
changed your career path?Copy !req
1026. Your aspirations?Copy !req
1027. Sean?Copy !req
1028. All of us.Copy !req
1029. For what
you want to doCopy !req
1030. with your life.Copy !req
1031. B.B.:
I'm pretty happy.Copy !req
1032. I wouldn't want
to live it over.Copy !req
1033. You know, I might not be
as lucky as I am now.Copy !req
1034. I'm pretty happy.Copy !req
1035. Change the future?Copy !req
1036. I wouldn't want anything
any different.Copy !req
1037. I think all of
us are just, uh...Copy !req
1038. Everything has changed
a little bit,Copy !req
1039. and what success
we can get out of life,Copy !req
1040. in any aspect that we choose,Copy !req
1041. that it's just helped us
a little bit.Copy !req
1042. But you're
moving to L.A.Copy !req
1043. to look for some
opportunities.Copy !req
1044. Yeah, I didn't mention that.Copy !req
1045. I'm moving to L.A.Copy !req
1046. Jenna moved out
to the coast
to take advantageCopy !req
1047. of some opportunities,
correct?Copy !req
1048. I was going to move thereCopy !req
1049. a year ago.
Oh, okay.Copy !req
1050. Sean, you're
coming upCopy !req
1051. on Guiding
Light, right?Copy !req
1052. B.B. and Stacey
have been in ads.Copy !req
1053. Ramona's writing for,
um, E.T., right?Copy !req
1054. Entertainment Weekly,
I'm sorry—E.W.Copy !req
1055. I'd like to surf,Copy !req
1056. and if anyone wants
to pay me to surf...Copy !req
1057. I'm just putting that out there.Copy !req
1058. So...Copy !req
1059. Hey, look, there is
one person missingCopy !req
1060. from this reunion—
a man so familiarCopy !req
1061. that he's almost been
like the 17th castaway.Copy !req
1062. I'm talking, of course,
about the show's host—Copy !req
1063. not Richard Hatch—
Jeff Probst.Copy !req
1064. Jeff has been in Australia,
site of next Survivor challengeCopy !req
1065. which is set to air
early next yearCopy !req
1066. right after the Super Bowl.Copy !req
1067. Tonight he's got the first look
at what 16 new Survivor entrantsCopy !req
1068. will have to outwit and outlast
in the outback.Copy !req
1069. Soon 16 new strangers
will volunteer to be strandedCopy !req
1070. here,
in the Australian outback.Copy !req
1071. This is a land
so vast, so remote,Copy !req
1072. that large portions of it
aren't even charted.Copy !req
1073. Certainly majestic,
stunning vistas,Copy !req
1074. all sorts of exotic wildlife,Copy !req
1075. but 39 days in this environment
is going to be harsh.Copy !req
1076. The temperatures
will be scorching.Copy !req
1077. And unlike Borneo,
the trees hereCopy !req
1078. provide very little shade.Copy !req
1079. No relief from the heat.Copy !req
1080. Not to mention the fact
that there are all sortsCopy !req
1081. of deadly creatures
scampering about.Copy !req
1082. It's going to be
a tough environment,Copy !req
1083. but there is hope.Copy !req
1084. The aboriginals have survived
out here for centuries,Copy !req
1085. simply by learning to adapt,
and as a result,Copy !req
1086. they're able to live in harmonyCopy !req
1087. with a land that is really
unlike any other place on Earth.Copy !req
1088. How will the 16 survivors fare
in this environment?Copy !req
1089. Who knows.Copy !req
1090. The bigger question—Copy !req
1091. how will they fare
with each other?Copy !req
1092. Because as we have seen,
surviving each other—Copy !req
1093. surviving the social politics—
is what this game is all about.Copy !req
1094. And this time, the delicious
but dreaded tribal councilCopy !req
1095. will take placeCopy !req
1096. high atop a beautiful waterfallCopy !req
1097. where each week
the tribes will come,Copy !req
1098. cast their ballots, and then
boot somebody off the island.Copy !req
1099. The landscape may have changed,
but the test remains the same—Copy !req
1100. outwit, outplay, outlast
to be the sole survivor.Copy !req
1101. The first time was great.Copy !req
1102. Can't wait to do it again.Copy !req
1103. I'll see you in the outback.Copy !req
1104. I think it
was SonjaCopy !req
1105. who said that this game is
really about surviving the vote.Copy !req
1106. Is that what it is,
do you think?Copy !req
1107. Well, I think so.Copy !req
1108. I have said that I forgot
the "outwit" part of it.Copy !req
1109. I had a very idealized notionCopy !req
1110. that we should go there
with teamwork,Copy !req
1111. and the ultimate survivor
would rise to the top,Copy !req
1112. and we would support them.Copy !req
1113. Not.Copy !req
1114. And if that's what it had been—Copy !req
1115. if it had just been
about survivingCopy !req
1116. in the wilds,
who would have won?Copy !req
1117. Greg.Copy !req
1118. Greg.Copy !req
1119. Gretchen.Copy !req
1120. We're getting a
lot of Gretchens.Copy !req
1121. If we would have
stuck together,Copy !req
1122. I think she would definitely
have won, there's no doubt.Copy !req
1123. Just from, you know, who
was going to vote against her?Copy !req
1124. I think Gretchen would have.Copy !req
1125. She taught survivalCopy !req
1126. for what, six years
in the Air Force?Copy !req
1127. There's no doubt.Copy !req
1128. I think Greg.Copy !req
1129. I think GregCopy !req
1130. has the natural
instincts for it.Copy !req
1131. Joel's also
very capable.Copy !req
1132. So are Sue
and Kelly.Copy !req
1133. I was the big fish
out of water.Copy !req
1134. They did a great job
casting all 16 of us.Copy !req
1135. They did do a
great job casting,Copy !req
1136. there's no doubt
about that.Copy !req
1137. We're going
to come backCopy !req
1138. with some final words
from the castaways.Copy !req
1139. We'll do that after this.Copy !req
1140. I'm going to do
silly little tricksCopy !req
1141. to entertain you,
make you happy—Copy !req
1142. things like standing
on their heads.Copy !req
1143. Well, that's really me.Copy !req
1144. But no games here, folks.Copy !req
1145. I'm going to be myself.Copy !req
1146. Oh, my God.Copy !req
1147. Was that your
thesis at Brown?Copy !req
1148. Close, very close.Copy !req
1149. It was a partnership
with my sister.Copy !req
1150. She really made it what it was.Copy !req
1151. We've heard about
that partnership.Copy !req
1152. Tell her thanks
for us, will you?Copy !req
1153. Before we came
on the air, Rich
came up to me,Copy !req
1154. and he said he wanted to do
something before we got awayCopy !req
1155. So, Rich,
why don't youCopy !req
1156. go ahead
and do it?Copy !req
1157. Just really quickly,Copy !req
1158. the poll
that you saw the people take,Copy !req
1159. and they talked
about who ought to win,Copy !req
1160. and they picked Rudy.Copy !req
1161. And Kelly and I
had a chance to be
there at the end,Copy !req
1162. and close the camp.Copy !req
1163. And these were
a couple of thingsCopy !req
1164. that were left in campCopy !req
1165. that I think Marge
and Rudy would like.Copy !req
1166. And one is the sign that
said "Rowdy Rudy's Diner,"Copy !req
1167. and I want Marge
to have it.Copy !req
1168. And the other is
the clue that we gotCopy !req
1169. for the immunity
challenge that Rudy won.Copy !req
1170. Hey, Rich...Copy !req
1171. I started
with you.Copy !req
1172. I'm going to
end with you.Copy !req
1173. You said on the air
that the million
would change your life.Copy !req
1174. How's it going to?Copy !req
1175. What are you
going to do?Copy !req
1176. Um, there are a couple things
I've wanted to do.Copy !req
1177. One main thing is to startCopy !req
1178. an outdoor adventure program
for troubled teens—Copy !req
1179. something like I went on
when I was 18 years old.Copy !req
1180. It's a goal that I've had
for a long time.Copy !req
1181. It's really nice,
it's really nice.Copy !req
1182. You're a
deserving winner.Copy !req
1183. Thank you.Copy !req
1184. You're a very
deserving winner.Copy !req
1185. You played the game,
you played it tough.Copy !req
1186. I had fun.
You played it upright,Copy !req
1187. you played it smart,Copy !req
1188. and you deserve
big congratulations,Copy !req
1189. as do all of you.Copy !req
1190. Thanks to all of you.Copy !req
1191. And so, it is, uh...Copy !req
1192. so, it is time now
for us to endCopy !req
1193. this special tribal council,
only this time,Copy !req
1194. there are no votes to cast,
no torches to snuff out.Copy !req
1195. The 16 people on this stage
tonight began as strangers.Copy !req
1196. But now millions of us know them
on a first-name basis.Copy !req
1197. Whether you view their effortsCopy !req
1198. as some deep-seated
microcosm of societyCopy !req
1199. or nothing more than
a television game,Copy !req
1200. there is no denying
their impact.Copy !req
1201. These castaways will be
appearing in advertisements,Copy !req
1202. like this one out
just this week,Copy !req
1203. as well as on magazine
covers and in newspapersCopy !req
1204. for some time to come.Copy !req
1205. Tomorrow morning, some
even will be joining meCopy !req
1206. on The Early Show.Copy !req
1207. So, we'll see you then.Copy !req
1208. On behalf of these 16
now-familiar individuals,Copy !req
1209. I'm Bryant Gumbel,
thanking youCopy !req
1210. for being a part
of this reunion.Copy !req
1211. Once again,
the tribe has spoken.Copy !req
1212. Good night.Copy !req
