Each week Jeff Probst will answer a few questions about the latest episode ofSurvivor: Ghost Island.
At one point, you had to tell Desiree to move her hands off of Laurels neck.
And was Laurel the MVP of this contest?JEFF PROBST:These challenges are always stressful for me.
I love the physical nature because I can see how energized the players are to let it out.
But I do worry about them being in the ocean and getting too physical.
Desiree was just in the heat of the moment; there wasnt any intent behind it.
But yes, I do have to stay on top of it to keep it fair.
Laurel was the MVP for sure!
Laurel is very quiet and humble.
She doesnt draw attention to herself, but shes a powerhouse.
Super smart, physically gifted, great at relationships.
Shes playing a very subtle game right now, and its working.
I thought that was a smart strategic move considering the situation at her tribe.
Lets say youre Kellyn.
It happens all the time onSurvivor.
Its why some people still struggle to believe this show is unscripted!
She puts her fear out there and whammo the universe answers!
Yes, not risking her vote was probably a smart move.
Its not one I would have made.
How could you not believe it?
I was completely caught by surprise when he said it!
Im so grateful I didnt laugh.
He was so deliberate and sold it so well.
This is why Michael is on the show.
Hes only 18, but hes playing like a seasoned veteran or like a seasoned human.
The stories are deeper and more personal, and the stakes of the game seem to be higher.
Youll feel that next week.
Were still early, but nobody wants to be sent home.
