Reem Daly was voted out first onSurvivor.
And in almost any other season, she would have been almost immediately forgotten.
ButSurvivor: Edge of Extinctionwas not any other season.

It made her a fan favorite and the undisputed GIF queen of the show.
So what does Reem have to say about her unorthodox stay in the game?
How is she now with some of the people she called out so bluntly?
And would she do it again if she gets the call?
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Congratulations on being the most famous first one out inSurvivorhistory.
You know, any other season that would have been that.
Thank you so much.
And sucks for you, like, welcome to hell.
Thats what it was, you know?
It is what it is.
It was definitely funny to watch.
You cant hate on that, you know what I mean?
It was actually really nice to see everybody and I respect everyone and Im super proud of Chris.
He really hustled when he got back in there.
So no, Ive got no beef with anybody.
That, excuse me, Ill probably never let go.
But no, I dont, Im not mad at them.
What was so great was that they couldnt vote me out, right?
But at the same time, I didnt know if they could vote me in.
Because you jerks put me here, dude.
How are you and Kelly Wentworth?
Because clearly you two werent seeing eye to eye out there.You know what, Kellys a player, right?
She came back here, I put a target on her back.
Im like, no way dude, that chicks smart, we need to get rid of her.
Were totally, totally fine.
Ive got absolutely no beef with her, shes a nice person.
I just had to tell her how I felt, thats all.
And as soon as that came out and was open air discussion, we were good.
You were out there on the Edge of Extinction for 32 days.
How close did you come to quitting?
And then, at that point I just wanted to say, Well, lets just see what happens.
Lets just see whos next.
All right, Ill hang out.
But, like, when we left to go to the first challenge, dude, I was done.
Im like, Sweet, Im in, or Im out.
Like Ive got closure, Im good, Im going to try and then Im done.
But the minute Jeff said, Yo, you could go back, I was like, What?
Thats why I was like, for the love of God, dude.
Like, I was mentally done.
But then, Hell yeah, Im going to go back!
I was like a bad rock band in the 80s sleeping there, man.
Like, Im not a quitter, you know what Im saying?
You didnt get to see everything of their emotional journey.
Like, they were done.
They were happy with themselves, they were done.
I even said, Do you want me to tackle you and not go there?
And they said, No, no, no, were good, its all good.
And I was like, All right.
And they said, If you want to come, we welcome you with open arms.
But I couldnt do it, man.
I wasnt going to leave knowing there was still opportunity.
Listen, bravo to Gavin.
Honestly, great job.
Because he was a hustler, that whole time.
Like, that kid is Captain America.
He provided for us.
But at the same time, this particular season is called theEdge of Extinction.
And that was a mental debacle, like nightmare that went on out there on the Edge of Extinction.
Who does that, dude?
Like, I have so much respect for that kid, I was super proud of him.
I felt like, my friend just won.
Like honestly, I was really, really proud of him.
Look, you had aSurvivorexperience unlike one that anyone else has ever had.
And it wasnt a traditionalSurvivorexperience or what you were expecting when you went out there.
Do I think I would win?
Well, I had such a great showing the first time, I dont know.
