"It's been a great 22 seasons of Survivor," smiled Jeff, unusually dressed in a suit and tie, reading through stacks of paper, "And we've had some lows and some highs. Now, for the second time in the series, we're once again bringing back players that never got their fair shot at the money."
One by one familiar contestants walked in and out of Jeff's office.
"18 of your favorite pre-merge players are returning for their second shot at the money, and shot at redeeming themselves, and fulfilling their destiny. Let's meet them."
– – – – –
Name: Fluttershy
Season: Redemption Island
Finish: 7th Voted Out, 6th Duel Loser
Tribe(s): Hapino
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "This was a huge request for us, so we decided to take a chance with Fluttershy once again. However, I ain't holding my breath for her. She's sweet, she's shy, she's nice... she's... not for Survivor period. She will crack if the pressure comes too much for her."
– – – – –
Name: Javik
Season: Virmire
Finish: 4th Voted Out
Tribe(s): Kalabaw
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "Our oldest contestant ever, Javik wants his fair shot to win the money again, and he was doing an okay job at it too. He was just too bossy and not so modern about the world as he once was. Being asleep for 10,000 years does a lot to you."

Name: Christian
Season: Blood vs. Water
Finish: 6th Voted Out, 6th Duel Loser
Tribe(s): Tadhana
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "Being the father of Matt Farmer, one of our geekiest contestants to ever play the game, Christian has a lot to prove being out here by himself. He's old, but he's full of knowledge and wisdom that could carry a tribe to the end."
– – – – –
Name: Lobo
Season: Prison Island
Finish: 9th Voted Out
Tribe(s): Ontar, Zeusch
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "The Main Man returns to make another appearance on the show. Lobo was a pure beast on the show, despite making a dumb move that costed him a million bucks. But does he care? Absolutely not. He's just here to cause havik, and those players are the best to watch, honestly."
– – – – –
Name: Garrus
Season: Virmire
Finish: 3rd Voted Out
Tribe(s): Tandang
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "Garrus is a natural born leader, and he only got sixteenth place! All thanks to one of our most feared players, Moses Sandor. Garrus is back with a new strategy, and I think he'll be going far into the game. He is a big threat, though, so he'll need to watch his back."
– – – – –
Name: Jack
Season: Forest Maze
Finish: 3rd Voted Out
Tribe(s): Mossono
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "It's been 4 years since we've seen the likes of Jack. She's back now, with hair, more clothing, and less of an attitude. She's still going to be a bitch, but she's going to keep her cool and her language down a little bit more. I root for Jack, because she's good at what she does."
– – – – –
Name: Sabrina
Season: Packers
Finish: 3rd Voted Out
Tribe(s): Finnick
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "I feel for Sabrina, because she has NEVER survived a single tribal council. Last season, she managed to win a few immunity challenges, but she didn't survive her tribe's first vote. Can she finally redeem herself here? Or will it be another check in the book for her?"
– – – – –
Name: Mega Man
Season: Kattlelox Island
Finish: 7th Eliminated
Tribe(s): Capcom, Nintendo
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "The Captendo 5 were a strong alliance that could have done well... but failed because they hadn't expected the arrogance of Bowser. Mega Man was lucky to escape his wrath, and it's time for Mega Man to show the Captendo 5 he was worth it."
– – – – –
Name: Ulala
Season: SEGA All Stars
Finish: 4th Voted Out
Tribe(s): Emerald
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "I never, ever considered Ulala to come back and play again, as she was a huge non-entity during the second season. However, Pudding came into Kattlelox Island, and just quit for the sole purpose of beating Ulala. After a lengthy conversation with her, Ulala is back to prove her wrong."
– – – – –
Name: Olivier
Season: Packers
Finish: 1st Voted Out
Tribe(s): Sango
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "Olivier was dealt a bad hand when she played Survivor Packers. She wasn't really showing herself to be a threat, and she was easily disposed of. This time, I hope Olivier has a good plan in motion, because she is a threat to win, and dominate in challenges."
– – – – –
Name: Quan Chi
Season: Edenia / Destiny Isles
Finish: 4th Voted Out, 2nd Duel Loser / 3rd Voted Out
Tribe(s): Outworld / Manono
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "The only person we're bringing back from Destiny Isles, Quan Chi is someone who never gets a chance to shine. He's so easily caught onto as being a big villain, and he's voted out very early. This time, I hope Quan Chi has a plan to stay alive, and make it pretty far."
– – – – –
Name: Galaxo
Season: Koopa Beach
Finish: 2nd Voted Out
Tribe(s): Brains
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "This was one of the few fans I had huge hopes for back when Koopa Beach happened. However, he just got beaten by one of the first few female alliances. Galaxo is smart, he's brainy, and he's here to make himself known in this season."
– – – – –
Name: NiGHTS
Season: Prison Island
Finish: 8thVoted Out
Tribe(s): Ontar, Zeusch
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "Last season, we saw a lot from Reala, NiGHTS rival and lover. He proved to be a dangerous foe. NiGHTS may not be repeating Reala's game this season, but she's here to show that even good guys can make great moves, and survive 39 days."
– – – – –
Name: Stryker
Season: Edenia
Finish: 8th Voted Out, 5th Duel Loser
Tribe(s): Earthrealm
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "Being a cop, Stryker was an odd and rare addition to the Earthrealm group. Not only was he one of four applicants that season, aside from Kano, Kabal, and Sektor, he was also clever and wise about the game. He made one small mistake, and now he's back to fix those mistakes."
– – – – –
Name: Kitana
Season: Blood vs. Water
Finish: 9th Voted Out
Tribe(s): Tadhana, Galang
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "Probably the most requested player to return to the game by fans, Princess Kitana is back to play the game. Queen Sindel was one feared player, and her daughter was following in her footsteps. I think Kitana will be a fearsome player, and many will see her as a large threat."
– – – – –
Name: Bree
Season: Green Hill
Finish: 1st Voted Out
Tribe(s): Moto
Chosen By: Fans
Jeff's Assessment: "Someone came up to me, and asked about Bree from Green Hill. Then I thought... hey, she was someone who I would like to see play again. After we revamped a few episodes of Green Hill, Bree was shown to be a tomboyish, cool woman. I hope she does well on her second try."
– – – – –
Name: Zod
Season: Prison Island
Finish: 1st Voted Out
Tribe(s): Ontar
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "General Zod never really got a chance to do anything. He was seen as a dangerous foe, and his villain alliance was systematically picked off one by one by one. I think Zod might have a new strategy coming into this game, and I hope makes people kneel before Zod."
– – – – –
Name: Vyse
Season: Kattlelox Island
Finish: 5th Voted Out
Tribe(s): Sega
Chosen By: Producers
Jeff's Assessment: "Vyse started off as one of the main heroes of Kattlelox Island. All of a sudden? Boom, first Sega player voted off! I think Vyse is someone that had a great strategy, but he happened to be seen as too naïve, and too young to understand a few things."
– – – – –
"I'm really interested to seeing how this season plays out. Will we have great players, or will they all be run over by the mistakes they made in the past?" wondered Jeff, "Either way, we have a preview for you to take a great gander at, so enjoy."
– – – – –
For the second time in Survivor history...
"So what if I'm a robot? I'm here to win the game, and I'm going to do whatever it takes in order to win." - Mega Man
"Perhaps it's time to finally earn that title. I might have gotten a little cocky the last few times I have played... but I've had my time to watch and learn these humans and creatures. I am ready." - Quan Chi
18 former players, all booted before the jury or merge, are back to play the game once more!
Garrus high fived Christian as the La Flor tribe arrived for the challenge, "Most important thing? Kick ass. Just like old times."
"I agree with you on that! Espada doesn't have a chance." agreed Christian.
All of them never got a chance to prove themselves, and now they are ready for anything!
"Thank God! No Cynthia, no Queens, no stupid players... Finally! A game where I can finally be myself, and show myself to my tribe." - Sabrina
"Mother, I will make you proud of me this time. As Princess of Edenia, I will not shame myself, you, or my country." - Kitana
Early on in the game, there will be a major twist!
"There are two hidden immunity necklaces hidden on this boat," explained Jeff, "You will then become the leaders of your new tribes, and then get to begin hand picking them."
Lobo blinked, "Huh. That's new."
"Two people will not be picked... and those two people will not make the journey to our location, the Mushroom Hills." finished Jeff.
Stryker shook his head, looking over at Bree, "That's harsh." Bree nodded in agreement.
"I just got here, man! I don't want to go home now!" (laughs) "I just hope I either find that necklace, or someone picks me." - Bree
Alliances will form!
"I know Reala wasn't kind to you during your season," commented NiGHTS, "But I think we can trust eachother, right?"
Vyse nodded, shaking her hand, "Oh, absolutely! And don't worry about it. Maybe we could... bring in someone strong, like Olivier?"
Jack smirked, crossing her arms as she watched Javik work, "Well Four-eyes... three Mass Effect characters. Think maybe that'll come together for some badass alliance?"
"There are no promises, human," muttered Javik, "Alliances only work if the parties trust eachother. I for one, do not trust you."
"Oh? Okay then. So you're just going to slam that in my face? %#$% me right? Come on... Shepard, when you got a prothean to join ya, did he really need to be this guy?" - Jack
Can one of these players prove they have what it takes to become the Sole Survivor?
"It's been a long time since I've played, but I've learned a lot since then, and I'm here to show that I still got it, and make the big moves." - Galaxo
"Oh, Pudding, haven't you learned anything from rivaling me? You try to one-up me, I will one-up you in some way possible. I finally got the call, and I'm going to do just that." - Ulala
"They will all kneel before Zod! Why can't they realize that? The money will be mine after being embarrassed on that last season of mine!" - Zod
"Umm... it's really nice to be back, but... umm... I still don't really know if it's for me. I really, really love watching this show, but playing it is so different, so um... I just hope they like me." - Fluttershy
Who will outwit, outplay, and outlast all the rest, on Survivor: Unfinished Business? Find out after the finale of Survivor: Kattlelox Island.
Bree looked over at Stryker and Lobo, and high fived them both, "Oh hell yeah! Listen, dudes, I don't care if you're the Main Man. For all I know, I can be the Main Woman here. Let's kick ass!"
"Huh... I like that title actually. Perhaps I can train that bitch real well on being the Main Man's sidekick." - Lobo
– – – – –
Espada: Bree, Lobo, NiGHTS, Olivier, Quan Chi, Stryker, Ulala, Vyse, and Zod
La Flor: Christian, Fluttershy, Galaxo, Garrus, Jack, Javik, Kitana, Mega Man, and Sabrina
I hope you are all hyped up for this season! This is going to be a crazy season, and I hope it beats Destiny Isles in ratings, as I was never entirely fond of that season. Well, at least in comparison to Packers, Blood vs. Water, and Prison Island.
