When a shirtless guy in overalls has something to say, I’ve found that the best course of action is always to listen. And that is exactly what the Uli tribe of Survivor 49 decided to do in a deleted scene that did not make this week’s episode. And we’ve got that exclusive scene for you right here.
In the scene from day four of the game, which can be watched above, Jawan announces, “I’m going to ask the cheesy question.” Uh-oh. What is the “cheesy” question? Is it horror-movie related? Because Jawan seems to really like horror movies. Is he about to ask Savannah if he can stuff a bunch of sticks and insects in her bag? Is he going to ask Nate his thoughts on things that are both fire and cinema?

NONE OF THE ABOVE, it turns out! Instead, Jawan chooses to take the far more earnest route. “I was going to ask what’s everybody grateful for,” he explains to a chorus of “I love that!” And like any good conversation-prompter, he then answers his own cheesy question first. “I’m grateful just watching the sun come up,” he tells his tribe mates. “I feel like I never do that like at all, especially where I come from, like downtown LA. But being here and just having a chance to be still, you know, I’m just grateful for this time.”
Awwwwwwww! The tribe then begins to cycle through what they are all grateful for, with Rizo saying he’s grateful for “human anatomy.” (You’ll have to watch the clip to see his explanation on that one.)
The Kumbaya vibes continue in confessional interviews, as Jawan gives his take on his teammates. “After spending some time with this tribe, this feels like a found family movie over here,” he tells the camera. “We got the dad, Nate the Great, then you have Shannon, the little yogi soccer mom. Then we have Savannah and Sage, who are like my little sisters. And then you look at Rizo, this dude’s so charming. He’s definitely like my little brother. And when I look at these guys, I’m like, ‘Dang, I can’t imagine cutting any one of them.’”
Even game-face-mode Savannah, whom we imagine having no issues whatsoever with snuffing anyone’s torch, has seen a softening of her hard exterior. “You know, when I first got on this beach, I think I saw everybody as a chess piece,” she explains in an interview. “But I’m out here and I’m actually making these genuine connections. Way more intense than I ever would’ve imagined. Hanging out with these people are like actually making me a better human being, which is crazy — words I never thought I would say on Survivor.”

Her final summation: “I don’t think this is the tribe I would’ve picked for myself at all, but I think maybe it might’ve been the tribe that I needed.”
