Lynn has done it again!
That’s right, my buddy Lynn over at The Other Network™ has pumped her Top Secret Source for some more exclusive Survivor info! This time, it’s about what happens once you get those infamous words “The tribe has spoken” and have to leave the island.
he jury folks stay in the production camp near the Survivors, because they have to be available to be at every tribal counsel. They sleep on cots and it’s more comfortable than if they were still a part of the tribe, but it’s not super-luxurious, by any means.
If they are eliminated before the jury begins to form, they are immediately taken to the far side of the island and told to put on a large, dark “hoodie” with the hood up. That way, no one can tell who it is unless they are supposed to know. Then, they wait to be transported by boat, or whatever necessary means to the sequester site.
The sequester site is not even near the production location, so that they will not be spotted and give away the order of elimination at all. Then, on the way to their destination, there’s a counselor-psychologist-type person that sits with them, telling them how hard it was for them to do what they did and that few people get the chance and that they did a great job, etc. And they make sure the person is mentally ok after the experience. [...]
They are given a small apartment to live in and each gets about $100/day spending money. And if they have a luxury item that they feel they need in order to pass the time, they generally get that too. Their stay is much more luxurious and they can go to the beach, hang around with each other, etc.
Thanks for the scoop Lynn!
