[show all]Deep in the heart of the South Pacific, twenty former castaways return to compete in the greatest Survivor competition yet. Ten heroes, known for their strength, integrity, and honor, will face off against ten of the most notorious villains in Survivor history. Four military helicopters align in perfect formation as they carry these twenty legendary castaways to the island of Samoa. The Villains Tribe, wearing red buffs, consists of Coach, Courtney, Danielle, Jerri, Parvati, Randy, Russell, Rob, Sandra and Tyson. The Heroes Tribe, wearing blue buffs, consists of Amanda, Colby, Cirie, Candice, James, Sugar, J.T., Rupert, Stephenie and Tom. “In my world I’ve always tried to show that good will win,” says Rupert Boneham, winner of America’s Tribal Council. Russell Hantz, one of the most sinister and conniving villains, assesses the advantages of his tribe. “I think villains are smarter than heroes because they don’t mind stabbing somebody in the back to get where they want to get,” says Russell. “If these people were smart, they’d get rid of me right away. It’s the smartest thing they could do, but they won’t. They never do,” says Rob Mariano of the Villains Tribe.
Two choppers carrying the Heroes tribe land on the beach, where host Jeff Probst awaits. The Heroes arrive on their blue mat as a second set of military helicopters storm the beach. The Villains exit the chopper and arrive on their red mat. “You see Boston Rob, and he’s already got [the walk] and the swagger and the attitude, and then you see Coach and then Jerri. I mean they really are villains,” says Stephenie LaGrossa. Probst officially welcomes them to Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains, and informs the castaways that they will be competing in their first challenge.
