The team in green struggled to pull things together in Episode 1, with some castaways harboring different opinions on how the game's first three days should be played. While idol-finder Sai clocked Vula as a bunch of (:::checks notes:::) 'hoochie mamas' who were too busy playing the 'get to know you game,' things took a slight upturn after the tribe recouped its supplies and got its first fire going. But while Sai was hitting the ground running, scrambling for the idol and forging fast alliances, 'hard-hitting business lady' Stephanie worked more casually, trying to build strong foundations via authentic conversations.
But after volunteering for the immunity challenge puzzle and failing to deliver the W, no amount of apologizing could've prevented her from becoming the season's first boot, and not even a Shot in the Dark could keep her torch lit.
When host Jeff Probst stopped by our TVLine studio Monday, we asked him for his take on what went wrong and whether Steph could've done anything to save her game at Tribal Council.
'Stephanie is a great example of why Survivor is extremely difficult to win, because she's a leader,' Probst tells TVLine. 'She's in charge of a lot of people. She gets in this game and decides for a minute, 'I'm just going to sit on my hands and kind of see what happens.' Her hands never came out from under her butt. It happened too fast. Is she a bad player? No! She read the room, [made] a choice, it didn't work out. Put her on another tribe, she's Final 3, who knows… Stephanie tried to get a pulse and hers was gone by the time it was over.'
In the video above, Probst also revealed some useful advice for future players of the game. Press PLAY to hear the rest of what the Survivor emcee had to say, then tell us: Were you surprised by Stephanie's early exit? Grade the episode below, then light up the comments!

Donald Trump's 5 Most Valuable Ventures Outside of the White House
President Donald Trump spent hundreds of millions of dollars getting himself elected, not once but twice, even if it wasn't consecutively. Though this may have put a financial dent in his portfolio, he's far from the poorhouse as he currently still has an estimated net worth of $5.1 billion. Read Next: Find Out: While this is an impressive sum, it's important to note that his net worth estimation has dropped from $6 billion since January 2025, when he once again moved into the White House. This raises the question: How are his finances and business acumen outside of the Oval Office? Although the mogul-turned-politician has suffered some noteworthy failures, many of Trump's businesses have been profitable, contributing to his growing empire. Here is a look at Trump's wealth and his most successful ventures — past and present. Estimated earnings: $2.6 billion This is Truth Social's parent company, though it hasn't had the smoothest financial journey since its launch in 2022. Last year, it reportedly generated sales of about $3.6 million and recorded a net loss of $401 million. Yet, Trump's popularity with his fan base can produce people willing to bid up shares at prices that don't seem to match the value, which keeps Trump in his preferred multibillion-dollar position. Estimated earnings: $427 million Tired of his show's remote filming locations, 'Survivor' creator Mark Burnett enlisted Trump in 2004 for a new reality program based in New York City. 'The Apprentice,' which revolved around Trump and his empire, became a massive success, drawing 27 million viewers by the end of the first season. Trump, who took a 50 percent ownership stake in the show, spent 14 seasons as the show's executive producer and host, dismissing hopeful contestants with the blunt catchphrase, 'You're fired.' At the time it was reported that the show rescued Trump from the most difficult decade his business had endured. I Estimated net value: $270 million $267 million in golf-related income reported in 2024 $161 million in gold and hotel proceeds in 2024 Trump owns a network of golf resorts stretching across the globe. Though golf courses are notoriously difficult to appraise, financial disclosure paperwork filed in 2015 estimated Trump's golf businesses to be worth at least $550 million — and perhaps more than $675 million. Now that Trump is once again president in 2025, his collection of high-end golf resorts generates hundreds of millions of dollars for him alongside his government salary of $400,000 a year. The net value of his golf business venture is approximately $270 million. Estimated value: $1.1 billion The New York native and current president has made his home city the heart of his real estate empire. As an example, he owns or has an interest in the following major properties in the Big Apple: Trump World Tower: Valued at $20 million Trump Tower: Stake worth $61 million Trump Palace: Owns $1 million through the storage unit The Trump International Hotel & Tower: $5 million in assets through ownership of the retail, garage and a portion of the residential The 1290 Avenue of the Americas building: 30% stake in office and retail worth $248 million Trump Tower Penthouse: Personal residence worth $90 million. Earned an estimated $12 million through licensing and royalty deals Made $7.2 million as part of a license agreement with NFT INT, LLC Trump owns a hotel management and licensing businesses, which span the globe. He's made millions through licensing and royalty deals from two LLCs he owns. Some of the client hotels and resorts pay Trump just for the use of his name and branding, while the Trump organization actively manages others. All properties bear the Trump name. Brought in $90 million in the four years of Trump's first term Made $105 million between his two presidential terms (2021-2024) One of Trump's greatest victories is also one of his most lucrative assets. Formerly the estate of cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, Mar-a-Lago is one of the grandest and most ornate structures in wealthy Palm Beach, Fla. It was reported that Mar-a-Lago's profits quadrupled after Trump left the White House in 2021. In 2025, this is how it rakes in that money from its 500 members: Members pay dues estimated at $15,000 annually Initiation fees come in between $700,000 to $1 million Rents out estate venues for private events The bottom line is that Trump's net worth might have taken a hit during his quest to become the most powerful man in the world or thanks to several lawsuits, but he succeeded in his candidacy and continues to succeed in many of his business ventures.

Glee Reunion: Chris Colfer and Darren Criss Bring #Klaine to the Tonys, 10 Years After Series Finale
The 2025 Tony Awards was a big night for a lot of people — but mostly for the cast of Glee. Where do we even begin? Perhaps with Jonathan Groff (aka Jesse St. James) getting everyone on their feet with a performance from the Bobby Darin musical Just in Time? Or maybe Lea Michele (Rachel Berry) presenting an award while celebrating her own impending return to Broadway in the revival of Chess? Or how about Darren Criss (Blaine Anderson) taking home his first-ever Tony Award for his role in this year's Best Musical winner Maybe Happy Ending?
