In an exclusive deleted scene from this week\u2019s episode of <em>Survivor 49<\/em> that can be watched above, we see Steven deciding to engage in a bit of tomfoolery as he returns to the beach with a Tree Mail message, and decides the reading of said message is a perfect opportunity to prank the rest of his tribe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThe game is changing yet again,\u201d Steven begins with his faux-reading. \u201cDrop your buffs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The problem is, the delivery is all off as it is way too matter-of-fact, without a hint of surprise, excitement, or consternation. While most people appear to immediately see through the ruse (\u201cLiar!\u201d responds a tribemate), at least one person was fooled.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cHonestly, Steven, I believed it,\u201d Savannah Louie says. \u201cAnd I was panicked.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<div style=\"max-height:none;overflow:visible\">\n<p>CBS<\/p>\n<p> &#8216;Survivor 49&#8217; merge tribe<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While Steven\u2019s prank was A+ in inspiration and C+ in execution, what is even more interesting in the clip is a window into Sophie Segreti\u2019s headspace before the immunity challenge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThe immunity necklace is all about need versus want,\u201d she explains. \u201cI want to wear that shark tooth thing through to final three. That&#8217;s what I want, but I don&#8217;t need it today, I think. Look, I&#8217;m going to give it my all today, but I do feel like I have people who have my back and it wouldn&#8217;t be me going home. And so I don&#8217;t think I need that necklace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">That\u2019s important because the woman running a season-long undefeated challenge streak into day 15 was starting to worry if her reputation was beginning to precede her, and if she was painting a bigger and bigger target on her back with each and every win.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cWhat&#8217;s tough is I haven&#8217;t yet lost a challenge on <em>Survivor<\/em>,\u201d Sophie says. \u201cAnd there&#8217;s a part of me that&#8217;s like: If I win tonight, will I become one of those Survivors where the second I don&#8217;t win an immunity, every single person is like, \u2018Yeah, we got to get her out of here.\u2019 It\u2019s terrible. I feel like I&#8217;m constantly knocking on wood out here because you can&#8217;t ever be sure, but we&#8217;ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"CBS Sophie Segreti on 'Survivor 49'\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/DY0zomdpefjLzLsaoZw.ug--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/entertainment_weekly_785\/348efb9e72e9ed57709702a62f638851\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<div style=\"max-height:none;overflow:visible\">\n<p>CBS<\/p>\n<p> Sophie Segreti on &#8216;Survivor 49&#8217;<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><em>Want to be kept up with all things Survivor?
