ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Lets get right to the cyclone.
JEFF PROBST: It started the morning of day 1.
But given the change in weather over the past several years, this isnt a completely unusual situation.

We often have storms circling us but they almost always end up passing us.
So we took note, and I just asked him to keep us updated.
The next morning, Greg showed me a map with the storm pointed directly at our island.

We made the call to evacuate.
What did you do with the contestants when they left the beach?
We made the decision to bring them to base camp so that we would all be together.
We put each tribe in a separate room with absolutely nothing in it.
No food, no blankets, no pillows, nothing.
They were monitored by producers the entire night.
And, to their credit, they did not talk or give a shot to form alliances.
They honored the good faith agreement we had made.
The next morning, we returned them to the beaches and the game resumed.
One other note that fans may enjoy.
On the way to evacuate them, I ran into our POV guy, Andrew Metz.
He said the batterywilldie in four hours.
Our location supervisor, Michael Glaser, happened to be walking by and said, I have one.
Reason #3,875 why I love working on this show.
I know your Dream Teamers test out each challenge multiple times.
Did there seem to be a correct strategy in terms of if the shortcuts ultimately paid off or not?
Thats why we do them to test how well youve gotten to know each other.
However, if she is voted out, she must will it to another player.
Two questions: 1.)
Does she will it publicly or privately?
So will the other players then know it exists and who has it?
Yes, it will be in the game in the final episode.
Then it would show up in that persons personal bag.
So, if the recipient didnt even know the advantage existed, they would be shocked to discover it.
So, it could end up being willed to several people or none at all!
What can you say about that and what is coming up?
Ah, Dr. Joe… who doesnt love Dr. Joe?
Yes, he is in action and … thats all I can say about that.
