All language subtitles for Survivor.s18e15

I'm JT, and I'm from Sampson, Alabama.

People's impression of me might be that
I'm a hillbilly, but I'm here to win,

and I'm going to win.

JT! Unbelievable!

JT! JT has lost a tooth! JT!

JT! JT wins final immunity!

Challenge for me is getting in with the
people. Who would you trust with your

life? Everybody says JT.

You just can't find anything wrong with
them. What a great soul.

I know I can trust you. You have my
word.

to the final two of this game. My mom
told me, you can win this game. If

can do it, you can do it.

Welcome to the Survivor Token Team's
live reunion show. We have all 16

survivors, including our winner. JT, are
you crying?

Yes.

Wow.

Who would have expected you to shed a
tear?

What's going on? What's the feeling
right now?

I'm very happy, obviously.

I just created one of the best friends
I've probably ever had. Steven and his

family. My parents are crying, so I
can't help it.

I'm happy.

It's probably the happiest I've ever
been in my life, obviously.

Well, I've got to say, and this is with
all respect to everybody else here,

you're one of the most popular guys
we've had on the show. Everywhere,

this whole week when I've been in New
York City, people are coming up going,

hate coach and love JT.

Ah, coach, we'll get to you. You'll get
your chance. You know what I mean? They

love to hate Richard Hatch, too. I know.
You're in good company.

But honestly, one of the most popular
guys, what's the reaction been at home

you? Are people adoring you the same
way?

Yeah, people in Stamps are very
hysterical, and they love me. I mean,

all the way. And I love them, too, but
they are really behind me. They've been

very supportive.

I mean, I know they're surprised right
now because I didn't tell a soul about

anything. My parents didn't even know.
They thought I was fourth at best.

Really? So this is very shocking to
everybody, and everyone's been behind

very supportive.

What was the...

Out there, I mean, we talked, I said
about how tough this game was. What was

toughest point? You're a guy that, you
know, we got to know through the show,

makes his living outdoors.

Was this easy for you, or was there a
time for you when it was tough as well?

This was very hard.

One of the questions I get the most is
that, is it as hard as it looks?

Obviously, you don't know unless you go,
but like day 12, you know, I was really

questioned, what am I doing here? Day
11, day 12, I was the hungriest I've

been in my life.

You couldn't see the light at the end of
the tunnel.

I really, what am I doing here? I've
said that numerous times, but I had to

tough it out.

It's way tougher than it looked. What
was it about Steven, a very unlikely

choice, when you look at some of the
other people up here that you might have

been drawn to based on just first
impressions?

Why him?

Stephen was the one person I thought I
would not allow myself with, I'll be

honest with you. He was the one guy that
I doubted the most. And immediately

after the hike, I mean, he carried a
sack with three melons in it. It shows

carrying one.

He carried more than his load. He
impressed me about, you know, obviously

impressed everybody. But, you know, day
three and four, Stephen was right by my

side working harder than anybody, doing
things he'd never done before.

And he has the best heart of anybody I
know.

Oh, nice.

Well, Stephen, what was the key to this
alliance working? Lots of people make

alliances that don't work.

I definitely think, wow.

I mean, it's like I said in the show.

Something about our intellects clicked.
We were always working hard. We would

come back from challenges or from
rewards, and we would say, let's get to

And for us, it was always about, this is
a game that we're both here to win, and

we're going to both play our hardest,
never let our guard down, and work

together constantly to make sure that we
are there at the end.

And you also mentioned to me just
earlier that you had an inside that I

know anything about. You kind of had an
inside mole in this game. Well, one of

the things that definitely helped us get
as far as we did within the Merge tribe

was Coach's relationship with JT. Coach
had this sort of image of JT as this

kind of warrior spirit, and he would
tell JT everything.

So Tyson would tell his plans to Coach,
Coach would tell JT, JT would tell me,

and our insurgency would be victorious.

Coach, you're instrumental.

You're everywhere.

I'm the gift that keeps on giving.

He owes me a million dollars.

Sorry, man.

The betrayal.

I mean, let me just remind you, Stephen,
what JT said. JT said to you, you have

my word and my life and I have yours,
right?

And then we get to that final tribal and
you get asked the question and you say,

no, I wouldn't have taken it.

What did that feel like in that moment
to have to...

Let this guy know you would not have
lived up to your statement.

I mean, it was something I wrestled with
a lot. And, you know, Debbie said, I

value honesty. And she seemed to be
really seeking a specific answer from

Of course, then, you know, she asked JT
his question, which was, you know, JT,

isn't it true that you're the greatest
person that's ever existed?

Yes.

Yes, Debbie, I am.

But, you know, obviously it felt
horrible.

to come clean, you know, with that.

But it didn't damage your friendship,
JT.

When you heard it, you did this whole,
oh, were you just putting on?

Yes, I was, Jeff. I'll be honest.

I'll be honest. I was definitely trying
to pull some votes out because it's very

different for me to take Stephen to the
final two and for Stephen to take me

because I knew, you know, people liked
me. And, you know, obviously I had never

had anyone write my name down. So it's
hard for someone to take me on, you

Brendan, what happened with Timbera? You
got at the merge.

In a game about numbers, did you have
too many people? I think we had too many

people, and I think we had a good amount
of dysfunction in our tribe between

this guy and this guy and myself.

A little bit of a power struggle. A
little bit of a power struggle, and I

that was pretty clear when they came in.
And the fact that we did have six

instead of four, you know, we had an
extra person, and I think Aaron switched

over pretty easily. So we kind of set
ourselves up for it. Well, and Aaron, I

have to give you credit because I always
say to win this game, sooner or later

you typically have to make a big move.
move betray somebody you is that what

prompted you to jump absolutely um you
can you have to look at it as

what is the best situation for me how
can i further myself in this game i want

to be here as long as possible every day
i can spend out here i can get that

much closer to making another move to
staying longer and if i can be six or if

can be four

Clearly, I'm going to be four.

Meaning you're on Timbira, you're at the
bottom. Absolutely. If you jump over to

Jalapal, you move up two spots.

Right. I'm still at the bottom, but I'm
higher than I was. That's six more days.

And look where it got you. It got you a
shot at getting into the final.

Taj, did anyone ever talk about taking
out JT earlier?

I mean, everybody talks about how we
love JT. JT's so great.

This is a game that in the end is kind
of about popularity.

Who do you like the best?

It is. Yes, and no one ever discussed
that because going into the merge, I

assumed it was us three to the end and
we'd work on that toward the end. And I

would always tell them, I never wanted
to be the last one with the idol because

I don't want to tell one of them they
had to go home. It would have been so

for me because we had been so close for
the whole entire game. It was just

something that I didn't want to do. But
of course not, JT. He just never came up

because he was so sweet.

JT, I have something here. Back early,
early on.

Gross.

One of your teeth got knocked out or a
part of your tooth.

We went and found it. Brendan, I think,
found it. Somebody, who found it? I

found it. Brendan found it. I picked up,
gave it to you. I hear back from

medical, JT doesn't want his tooth. I
said, I want his tooth. Give me his damn

tooth. So I just, I kept it this entire
time.

Hold on.

Hold on. No one panic.

It's right here.

Okay, Michael, let's get a shot of that
so you can just see his tooth. Can you

see it?

Okay. Now, I just want to ask you again
before I... Do you want your tooth back?

It's still completely useless to me. My
mom probably wants it. I'm sure my

little sister.

Well, we got a lot of women, all front
row women going, I want all of him. All

right, Mom, you want the tooth? Let's go
tell you how to mom down here. Hold on.

What's your name, Mom?

Maureen.

How proud of you, first of all, are JT
out there, of JT?

Very proud. Yeah?

He kind of said in one of his
interviews, my mom said, you can win

Yeah. So you believed that the whole
way?

I told him for about three years I
thought he could do this.

Really? Yeah.

Yeah, how's it feel right now? Your
son's got a lot of money.

That's good. I might not have to worry
about him anymore. Yeah. Well, all

Hold your hand out. I don't want you to
drop this.

That is your son, your little baby who
you gave birth to.

And it grew into this suit that he
doesn't want.

Close it up.

Very nice to meet you and
congratulations.

All right.

Up next, some were nice, some were
nasty. We'll hear from Todd and Tyson.

still to come, Coach, liar or truth
teller?

Plus one survivor will be voted our
Sprint Player of the Year and get to go

with an extra $100 ,000. We'll be right
back.

As the rain comes down to welcome us.

Oh, my God.

It doesn't look like it's letting up.

out here for so long you almost forget
what home is like and what the people

like that you love

he's

my fire he is the love of my

life so it was just like the skies just
parted the sun came out and nothing else

hurt after that

for the Survivor of Tocantins Live
Reunion Show. Taj, first of all, I have

say, of all the seasons, you were one of
the biggest surprises because when we

were out there, I would have never
guessed people were going to love you

they love you. I was wrong.

I was completely wrong.

And so I want to ask you, we got, I
don't know how many of you guys know

past. Throw that shot up, Michael. You
were a pop star in your own right.

Right there in the middle.

I'm on the end.

On the end? I'm on the end with the ugly
glasses.

Well, whichever one you are, you were
the thing. Oh, I see. Well, there's two

sets of ugly glasses.

So what I'm getting at is that's a
glamorous life. When you're doing that,

people are taking care of you. Survivor,
there ain't nothing. How much of a

culture shock was this for you?

I'm not an outdoorsy girl. I grew up in
Brooklyn, New York. So the biggest part

was just adjusting to that outdoors
life. I've never been fishing before.

never had to strike a fire before.

I'm used to a gas stove. So to go out
there and have to drink from this river,

make my own shelter, food, everything,
it was a huge shock. But I got used to

real quick. And once I caught on, I was
like building fires for JT. I was

fishing for the camp. It was cool.

Show me, hold one of your arms out
because you got some wear and tear on

arms. I got wear and tear everywhere.
Hold them steady there for a second.

Michael, try and get, I don't know if we
can see that, but you got a lot of bite

scars.

I mean, you were getting eaten up out
there. This is just the tip of the

iceberg. They bit up my entire back, my
legs, everything.

And to be a little vain, my skin was
like my biggest asset. And to go out

and...

Get chewed up the way I did. I was just
crushed. I'm sitting in the water like

it's time to go home.

Relive for me the moment when you
realized when you were looking at that

from your husband, Eddie, that he said,
I will see you back at camp because I

still got a little bruise from the way
you grabbed me.

I was so hysterical that day. You know,
of course, looking at that video, when I

saw the video, I just, I lost it. I was,
it was completely out of my control at

that point. So when you kept asking me,
what did he say? I'm just like, oh, my

baby. And then I'm like, oh my God, he's
here.

And what is it about that, that love?

Why is it, people say it's only 30 days.
It's not that long.

I have never been away from my family
that long. And to go.

30 days without hearing from him,
without email, without arguing anything.

I was just in a drought, and I needed my
husband. I needed my sons.

And that day just couldn't come fast
enough.

Let's go out. Michael, let's go back out
here. I'm liking going in the audience

tonight because we have some people we
want to talk to.

Everybody knows this guy here.

Former pro bowler.

Eddie, you know.

You kind of made your living. I mean,
football being your life, getting beat

for a living. This is not what your wife
did. How proud of her are you? And were

you out there seeing? You got to see
firsthand how she was really living.

Yeah, when she was gone, I had no idea
what was going on. I had no

with her. And when I saw her, I was just
elated to see how much weight she lost.

But I saw a glow in her eyes. It's
something that...

She really needed to do and really find
an industry for herself. She's the rock

of our family. When I saw her holding
the camp down, that's how it is at our

house. She keeps me in check.

And I don't know if people remember this
episode, but Eddie George started a

fire like that.

How did you know how to start a fire?
Royal Ranger.

Now, I was a Royal Ranger back in the
day. I have some skills. I grew up in

Philadelphia, but I know how to start a
fire.

If I had to do it, I can do it. Next
season, Eddie George. All

right, well, everything needs a balance.
And to offset

the loveliness that was Taj, there was
the delightful nasty that is Tyson. Take

a look.

I'm going trolling all over everybody's
asses. I'm probably not the

stereotypical Mormon.

He's naked.

I think people appreciate that. Bingo,
bingo, bingo. You can look me in my

blue eyes and I'll tell you sweet
nothings and you'll believe all of them.

any ladies want my phone number, ask.

Tyson, what has been...

The reaction from the Mormon community
to one of their more outspoken Mormons

I've ever met.

You know, the people that come up to me
in public love me, but I know there are

people that in their heart probably
don't hold that much love for me.

But, you know, great men are either
loved or hated. Jesus of Nazareth,

Smith even. So, you know, I mean, I'm
not saying that I'm comparable to those

guys, but it's not only the wicked ones
that are.

reacted to in that way. It may just take
time to understand your place. Yeah,

exactly. It's just time. You know, you
hate me at first, then you grow to love

me, then you can't live without me. Yes,
we've heard the spiel.

Sierra, first impressions in this game
from the get -go, these guys wanted you

gone, and it never really left.

It's been a long time since somebody's
been universally despised in a way that

didn't understand.

What was it? Was that a shock to you to
see how many people were talking? Tyson

was on you. Coach was on you. Debbie at
one point was on you.

Yeah, it was really hard. It was really
hard to start out and get voted out and

then go back and make the right choices.
I knew that.

Behind the cameras and by myself I was
making all the right choices And I was I

was honest and I was I was forthright to
everyone and I felt that I was a good

person But I mean it doesn't take a good
person to win this game. So I guess

maybe if I went for my morals rather
than snakes over here What did you did

learn anything from this about yourself?

Absolutely I learned that I'm I've been
a dependent person on other people my

whole entire life and I've learned how
to depend on other people in order to

satisfy who I am as a person. And the
moment that they all betrayed me and

turned on me, I found myself.

And I am so proud of myself because I
stuck it out six days with ruthlessness

and I fought to the death.

I fought to the death and I... I was a
cool dragon!

I played the dragon!

Ciara took down the dragon.

All right. Well, up next, he was one of
the most colorful, memorable,

controversial characters in the history
of our show, the Dragon Slayer. Coach is

next.

Who is this jackass?

I am the last of the Mohicans. The
renaissance man adventurer. I've been

a hurricane, I've been attacked by a
shark, captured by the Indian tribe, had

run -in with a crocodile.

Wow, sounds almost too good to be true.

None of us have ever done this in our
lives.

I have.

I want to change this game. I consider
myself a renaissance man adventurer.

Iron sharpens iron, baby. I know who I
am.

Unshakable, unbreakable, invincible like
a sword.

Dragon slam.

Coach wins immunity.

I feel brilliant.

Thank you for creating me as an
individual. I am the last of the

Oh, but this is about me now.

Victory is mine.

It's been a while since we've had
anybody as colorful as you and

Like I said, the only other thing I was
hearing on the street other than I want

JT to win is, man, I'm so glad coach is
off.

But I reckon that the minute you were
voted off, a lot of people missed you. I

know I did. So what has been that Taj is
already rolling the eyes?

It's like tribal council.

What has been the reaction?

from people you don't know on the
street, strangers.

Yeah, I mean, most people are like, wow,
you know, we watched the season because

of you.

I think in the back of their minds, they
might be thinking, oh, I hate you. But

they've been pretty cool.

And what's been the reaction from people
who know you? Do they, is this, yeah,

that's Coach. That's the Dragon Slayer.
Sounds great.

All right.

You know, it's really been kind of like.

They understand that eccentric side of
me. They understand that creative side

me. And also putting my stamp on the
game. I put my stamp on tribal, on my

outfit, on the feathers.

So I just like to make my mark wherever
I go. There must be some eye rolling up

here. I like making my mark. Exile? Come
on. I mean, that's heroic.

Epic? What can I say?

What is the... Okay, when you told one
of the biggest stories ever...

I don't even have to say what it is.

You're down the Amazon, I'm setting a
record, and I get captured by an

indigenous tribe who ties me to a stake,
and then they're going to dismember me,

but I escape and finish the record.

When you told that story, could you feel
the energy that night? Did you think,

yes, they're glad I'm telling this. Did
you think, oh, they're not buying it? It

doesn't matter. When you speak the
truth.

You have to tell it no matter what. I
actually debated with myself. I'm like,

come on, I got 100 stories that I could
tell instead of this one. But there was

something nagging about telling that
story.

Well, okay.

Now, I offered you a lie detector test.

Yes. And you said no.

Yes. I wonder why.

Well, I was going to ask you about the
story down there. So why do you say no

that? Well, what would that have proven?

Well, I mean, some would say a lie
detector test would prove if you're

lie or not. Well, here's the thing,
okay? Now, you guys have handled my

reputation for the last three months.

And in this case, I did want to handle
it myself. Now, we've all been

up here at one time or another.

You, my friend, my worthy adversary,
have never been blindsided.

I did take that lie detector test from
John Groban, one of the authorities in

Hollywood. I have the sealed envelope
here.

Now, in particular, it's sealed.

I love this. I'm reminding you, we have
only a certain amount of time. Yes, I

understand that. You can be verbose. I
love this. I want you to open it, or

would you like for me to? No, I would
like to open it. And in particular, I

you to read question number two.

Okay, this says confidential report. I
mean, I will say it looks like it was

printed on something that you could have
in your office, but no.

No, it does. It has the guy's name here.
You can call him. John Grogan and

Associates. There's the phone number.
I'll be calling him after the show.

Count on it. I also have a videotape of
this in case anybody out there wants to

see it. Wow. In Hollywood. This is
exactly what I was hoping would happen,

you did it. I know. Now, you did it in
the safety of not any of us knowing, but

you took the test.

What are the odds? Mike, get a big shot
of the house.

What are the odds right now by sound
that Coach is going to be proven to be

telling the truth?

Wow, okay.

Question one, did you play the game
Survivor with utmost honor and

Yes. Question number two, on your trip
down the Amazon,

were you captured by Native?

Yes.

Coach, I am impressed.

No, nobody...

Do you guys believe this test?

All right.

Mixed feelings on whether or not that
was true.

Lie detector test seems to be valid to
me. I believed you the whole time. I

you did. I know you did. I know you did.

All right. Debbie, I have a quick
question for you. Going back to school,

a middle school principal. Right.

when you have all these kids and you're
playing a game that is ethical and moral

and you have to make all this, what was,
were you worried? What was, what has

been the reaction?

The reaction has been amazing and
positive. And honestly, it's, this game

with at last I'll play and you have to
lie in survivor.

Um, and everybody has understood that
really it's, it's been amazing. The kids

have been great. Everybody, they love
seeing me looking filthy and gross, but

other than that, um, it's, it's, it was
an amazing experience for all of us

involved. The kids loved it. I gotta be
honest. I'm still, back on coach. Who

did you bring with you? I know we're
running out of time. Who did you bring

you? I brought my coaching staff,
Mitchell, Latifah, Amber. I brought the

of my book, Tom Gauthier.

Coach of the coach, Brad Jordan, and a
special lady friend, Melinda Tretner. A

lady friend. Okay, lady friend. What's
lady friend's name? Melinda Tretner.

Melinda, stand up real quick.

Come on.

Question.

Simple answer.

Is the coach we saw on the show, is that
the guy you know?

Unfortunately, you only saw a coach and
not Ben Wade, who I know and love.

So there is another side to him.

Dragon Slayer doesn't make it into the
bedroom or does?

No, actually, I slay the dragon.

You slay the dragon.

Up next, one of these 16 survivors is
going to win $100 ,000 courtesy

of Sprint simply for being popular.

But first, taking us to the break, our
survivor composers, Dr. Russ Landau and

David Vanacore.

All right, we are back with the Survivor
Token Team's live reunion show. Since

Thursday, viewers have been texting and
voting online for the sprint player of

the season. In other words, they've been
voting for the Survivor, which one of

you guys they like the most. The votes
are in. One of you is about to go home

with an extra $100 ,000.

I have three names.

The top three are... JT is one.

Todd.

And in one of the biggest surprises,

Sierra.

The winner, however, is not Sierra.

The winner is JT.

Big night for JT.

That's 1 .1 million.

Let's do some updates with some of the
people we haven't talked to. Joe,

everybody hated to see you go home with
the injury. How's the leg?

You know, Jeff, thanks for asking. I
haven't been asked that yet at all.

No,

it's great.

It's back to normal, yeah. So you're
fine?

Yeah, doing fine.

Hard to come out of the show, though.

It's horrible, man. My voice just cracks
every time I talk about it.

Sydney, what's going on with the
modeling career?

Well, it's been good. I mean, I haven't
gotten too many shows with Survivor,

but...

Clients inviting me back because they've
seen me on the show, so it's been

pretty good. Good, and you weren't too
scarred up out there. No, I only have a

couple on my legs and my arms, but not
too bad.

Spencer, youngest guy ever on the show
and one of the biggest fans.

Did you have fun? You were off way
earlier than you wanted to be, but did

have fun out there? Oh, of course. I had
fun on the truck coming in. We were

taping the intro stuff. That was a dream
for me, so it was a blast for sure.

I'm going to skip you, Sandy, and come
back to you.

Jerry, do you hear from the guys, you
were in the service for a long time, do

you hear from your buddies going, either
saying, way to go, or what happened?

What happened? Yeah, what happened? But
I just thank God for just allowing us to

go out and take everybody out in this
harsh environment.

I mean, it was dangerous out there, and
bring us all back safely. So that was a

big... attribute there just to get us
all back safely but the guys do rag me

the time about it candace i just saw you
in a commercial is that is that what

you do i didn't i didn't know any i do a
lot jeff yeah yes i do um thank you

yeah i just did a commercial but um yeah
i i work in modeling and acting as well

as consulting and you know um sometimes
law so life is

going okay since survival is awesome
Carolina, whenever you're first off, and

lot of times, it would be Sandy.

It would be the older person who would
somehow get the boot.

To have a young woman attractive, it's
unusual.

Can you still enjoy the game? Can you
still enjoy watching the show when you

were only out there for three days?

I mean, it sucks getting voted out
first. I should have kept my mouth shut.

However, Survivor was a gift. And, you
know, I made it out of so many people

that love this game so much. So Survivor
was a gift. It changed my life. And I

love all these people sitting here. And
I'm so proud of...

of Jalapal making it all the way. So I
love these people. I have no regrets.

All right. And finally, taking it to the
break, Sandy, just something crazy.

Just something crazy. What's something
crazy that's happened to you? I take out

of my vocabulary that you never get a
second chance to make a first

I did. And I was glad that, you know, I
got that chance. Yeah, you really did.

Both of you and Ciara did.

Yeah, I went for the idol, though, and I
said, no, forget them, and I'm not

going to build them anything. They just
voted me out, and I'm just going to look

for something to keep me in the game.

Sandy, you look good all dolled up.
Thank you for being out there.

Thank you. All right. Well, it has been.

Nine years and 18 seasons of Survivor,
and we are not finished.

The question is, where are we headed?

Find out when we come back.

Your votes are in, and we have a winner.

Survivor Token King Sprint Player of the
Season is JT.

Congratulations on winning $100 ,000
courtesy of Sprint, the Now Network.

Welcome back to Survivor Token King's
Live at Union Show. Before we show you

where we're going next, JT, when I asked
your mom, I said, you know, your son's

got a lot of money. She said, maybe I
won't have to worry about him anymore.

Any plans? Is there something in
particular you're going to do with some

cash?

Hopefully use it to make a little more
money.

I'm not sure just yet. I'm definitely
going to look forward to working with

Stephen down the road, I'm sure.

Really? A partnership? I feel like I
never could have done it without

although I showed that on the finale. So
I feel obligated.

No, we're not. I mean, we're not
obligated. Oh, we're not back in tribal.

don't even want to hear this again.

Oh, my God. All right. Survivor 19 is
just around the corner. Where are we

headed next? Take a look.

This fall, Survivor ramps up for an
incredible 19th season.

Deep in the exotic waters of the South
Pacific, 18 strangers will be abandoned

on the rugged islands of Samoa.

A tropical paradise.

Straight from Robert Louis Stevenson's
legendary tale, Treasure Island.

This majestic land of towering
waterfalls, mysterious

rainforests, and a fierce warrior
culture will be the castaways'

home for 39 days.

Forced to work together, they must learn
to adapt or they'll be voted out.

In the end, only one will remain to
claim the million -dollar prize and the

title of sole survivor.

Survivor Samoa, coming this fall.

Well, I have to say, on behalf of
everybody that makes Survivor, we really

appreciate the loyalty of you guys. And
if you want to own a piece of Survivor,

all you have to do is go to the website
being shown on your screen.

You can own anything you've seen on this
season. You could own JT's torch. You

could own something from Coach, I'm
sure. Or you could own this necklace.

That will remain a mystery.

Also, if you think you have what it
takes to be on this show, you've heard

tough it is. Go to CBS .com.

You can find out everything you need.
Just put together a three -minute

videotape. And all we want is you.

You don't have to be Coach if you're not
Coach.

That is it. Thank you very much for your
loyalty, and we will see you next time

for more Survivor Samoa.

Thank you.

Thank you.
