ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lets start at the very, very end.

Our final words were not from Keith, but from Reem at the Edge of Extinction.

From a living point of view, this is the most extreme situation weve ever created for the players.

Part of the experience is for the audience to learn alongside the players.

Let us know if youve had enough and well send a boat.

Until then, good luck.

So, for Reem, this means total uncertainty.

Its a moment by moment existence.

That is one of the biggest parts of the test.

But that is not the situation.

Is there more to come?

Do I want to give that away?

Every cast of newbies reacts to returning players a little differently.

Its interesting to watch from the vantage point of having nothing at stake in the game.

I dont think about a switch or the merge because those events havent happened yet.

I want to avoid Tribal Council.

Then if we get to the merge, I reassess the situation.

What value does Joe offer now?

But this is whySurvivorcontinues to fascinate.

We see it in our daily lives.

And it also speaks to how competitive they are in life andSurvivor.

They knew theyd be a target and they still said yes.

I want you to put yourself in Chris position for this Tribal Council vote.

On one hand, Keith is a clear liability in challenges, and they have yet to win one.

What doyoudo there if youre Chris?I vote out Keith.

This is one of the mistakes that I think people make in the early day.

They build an alliance with someone who has little value to anyone else in the tribe.

If so, then it might be a risk worth taking.

So long as you know its a calculated risk.

We are really enjoying being able to be more playful and the audience response is very encouraging.

Our teams spend so many hours going over the best way to present the story.

We want it to be entertaining, surprising and ultimately inevitable.

Its just as important what you dont show as what you do show.

So yes, continue to expect the unexpected!

Well get our answer as to Keiths destination next week.

What else can you tease about the next episode?Oh, so much fun!

One player reveals theyre a bigger schemer than some might have guessed.

And E of E reveals a bit more.

Nothing is gonna be easy.
