All Ready Biting My Tongue

This is the Premiere episode of Survivor: Sumbawa

Day 1
An ariel shot of the scattered Indonesian islands is shown. The camera pans over the beaches, above the lush green forests and finally the ocean. The waves are low...but suddenly a ship wreck is shown. Half a large pirate ship on it's side is on the shore. The camera carefully inspects the inside and outside of the ship, showing broken wooden planks and machete's. As the camera pans out three coloured mats are shown on the beach, and one recognisable face stands in front with a grin.

Jeff's Voice over is shown as he inspects the ship

Jeff: As Survivor continues to roll on, this season we are on the islands of Sumbawa. The archipelago feature extensive beaches and lush forrest...but it will be home for the next 39 Days. This time we have 18 Brand New Castaways ready to play. The personalities this season are huge and so are there egos. As always this season will be a blast with twists, turns and everyones favourite BLINDSIDES.

Three boats are shown streamlining to shore. The camera zooms in on one boat. The castaways are wearing Blue colours. An older man is shown grinning and a younger girl with Hazel hair and the biggest smile is shown struggling with the speed of the ship and a bandage already on her head.

"lombok"

- Sitting on this boat and watching other people smiling is making me a little sick. I'm here to play a cut throat game, and you will only see my beautiful smile when you walk up and get your torch snuffed

The camera phases over to a boat with another 6 contestants. Dawning the colour yellow an older women is taking in the breeze of the ocean, whilst a younger gentleman with a lip piercing and intense emerald eyes glares across at the other two ships. A girl with Orange hair clenches onto her dog tags as her confessional airs.

"sunda"

- This game is not just about betrayal, honour is important to. Just to be here I am sacrificing soo much, but these dog tags let me know what I am waiting for when i return home...With a Million Dollars

The final boat is shown, a women is shown wearing a singlet, military pants and thick black boots her muscle shine against the sun and spray from the ocean. A man with a dark beard is shown smiling with his hand hanging of the side of the boat, and a worried woman with chestnut coloured hair in a ponytail is shown feinting a smile but the fear in her eyes is crystal clear.

"flores"

- I am a teacher, i convince people they are smarter than they actually are...for a living. Manipulation may not work, but my major is english I know how to talk and how to persuade.

The boats hit the shore at the exact same time. Some castaways are mesmerised by the ship wreck whilst others have kept game faces on. As they walk to there mats and stare at Jeff Probst, the mixed bag of feelings is highlighted.

"sunda"

- Stepping off the boat and seeing that old pirate ship made me worried. I know that it is not just for decoration...but what it is actually for...I honestly cannot put my finger on it.

As the tribes continue to shuffle on their designated mats a young man with glasses on the Lombok tribe asks everyone to link arms and shoulders with a huge smile.

Aston: Come on guys, we are a family now?

"lombok"

- Unity is necessary. The best tribes are like family's and from day one, we must be loyal to one another and a simple group linking will go a long way to intimidate the competition.

Eden: This is soo cute I love it

Christine is shown to be reluctant, but eventually Joni reaches out to her.

Joni (Whispers): You seem smart, don not make your self a target this early.

Probst: Well Welcome everyone, Welcome to Survivor Sumbawa. Look around at your fellow gladiators, this season will be full of strategic, emotional and physical battles. Is everyone eager?

The whole cast smiles and cheer with high fives shared all around.

Probst: You girl in the hat, what's your name?

Eden: I am Eden, *giggles* I cant believe you spoke to me first.

Probst: You look like youve already had a rough battle...what happened there?

Jeff points to the top of his head, which is the same spot as Eden's minor bandage.

Eden: ...Well I am pretty clumsy, and during some of the pre-game interviews I fell and grazed my head, I am totally fine. I don't usually wear hats but i wanted to cover it...guess it's pretty noticeable.

"lombok"

- This poor girl bumped her head walking around for photos and interviews, I absolutely fear her weakness in challenges. I might have to carry her through the immunity challenges. I am not here to loose, especially not because of someone else's mistakes.

Probst: Well you better be a little more cautious and aware, don't want you stumbling on random twigs and tree roots. At least you have already meet Dr. Joe and medical. Ok you over there on the green mat, with the beard who are you? Why are you here?

As Jeff points to Wilkie he begins to smile. But the camera pans to a younger man in a green hoodie before a confessional plays.

"flores"

- That guy doesn't need to speak a word. You can already tell his a threat with that big smile and build. I already know I need him on side.

Wilkie: Full names William, but everyone calls me Wilkie. Why am I here? Well besides the fact that I am talking to the face of Survivor Jeff Probst, I am here for the game. Everything you mentioned in that intro, all aspects. I have been waiting for the call, now that I am on this beach my energy levels are through the roof.

Probst: Well I am flattered, hopefully you can spend more days with me and I live up to these expectations. I like your fire, but how do you feel about the rest of your tribe.

Wilkie: This tribe looks mixed, we don't look like the overall strongest but variety is good. Not every challenge is about physical strength Jeff. I can tell we have some brain power here also.

Probst: Very modest. Now you the one standing out with the pink hair, Whats your name?

The girl steps forward smiling and flicking her long luscious pink hair into the wind, in the back ground Vito is shown rolling his eyes.

Florrie: I am Florrie Atwater, I am a fire cracker full of emotions and a make-up artist. I love everyone until they cross me and I am determined to win.

"sunda"

- Tribe Looney CONFRIMED! *Smirking*

Florrie finishes her sentence and awaits a response from Jeff, with one hand on her hip and her attitude on full display.

Probst: Wow okay, there goes my second question Brilliant. So what are your thoughts on this tribe?

Florrie: As long as we can communicate, and display mutual respect this tribe will dominate. I know I am ready for anything, and I can persist through the challenges.

"sunda"

- ...and I, and I, and I, and I. Sounds like a team player.

As Jeff goes to answer to Florrie, Vito raises his hand.

Vito: Can we stop being this tribe and that tribe and third tribe and gets some names up here Jeff.

Kaelyn: Omg YESSSS. I want a cute buff skirt already Jeff.

Probst looks stunned, as the castaways laugh at the comments made.

Probst: Well alright then, I have three bags. Blue tribe you are called Lombok

Jeff throws the buffs and Joni intercepts a catch that Eden was sure to miss. They tribe giggles and exchanges comments about the buffs.

Aston: ...On three!

Kennie: 3..., 2..., 1

Lombok: !LOMBOK!

"lombok"

- I Can already feel that tribe spirit!

"lombok"

- Why in the hell did i get placed with the overly friendly people. UGHHHHH fake smiles on.

"flores"

- They don't even know each other yet they seem like a united force. We have our work cut out for us.

Probst: Next we have the yellow tribe...Sunda

Probst throws the bag and buddy catches it and hands out all the buffs. Everyone on the tribe smiles and hugs, but Florrie seemingly avoid Vito.

"sunda"

- Straight away that pink haired girl is making enemies with other kid. The other tribe just jumped for joy as a team, but we already have some beef cooking. WTF MAN!

"sunda"

- When Jeff handed out the blue tribes buffs, with no map i knew something was up?

Jeff finally throws the last bag towards Kaycee who catches it and fist bumps the air before dealing out the buffs.

Probst: Finally we have the green tribes, your name is Flores.

Kaycee: All right Flores, We have a name and a mission to win, Lets get to it.

"flores"

- Wow, The girl with the curly hair, Katey?? She seems like scary, maybe military.

"flores"

- Cool guess she wants to be the tribe leader, thats perfect for me, she can boss everyone around if she wants.

Probst: All right guys, now if you are wondering where your maps and camps are...you are going to have to wait. Turn around and face that wreckage.
