Survivor DVD is based on Sixteen new castaways, who have already been divided into two tribes, arrive via canoe at the Redemption Island arena to begin their Survivor adventure. Jeff Probst, the host of Survivor DVD, welcomes them to the game and informs them that two more players will join them. As they anxiously wait for the approaching helicopter to land, Edna Ma from Los Angeles, CA, whispers to her tribe mate Brandon, "I just hope it’s not Russell.” What she doesn’t know is that Brandon Hantz, an oil tanker crewman from Katy, Texas is Russell’s nephew. Brandon doesn’t want his tribe to know that he is related to Russell and vows, "I will never, ever tell them my last name.” The helicopter lands and out jumps Ozzy and Coach, both of whom are fan favorites and skilled two-time Survivor DVD veterans. The castaways from survivor DVD welcome Ozzy and Coach with applause. Christine Shields Markoski, the 39 year-old teacher from Merrick, N.Y., tells Jeff that although it is nice to see Ozzy and Coach in person, they are "temporary players.” In contrast, John Cochran, a 24 year-old Harvard law student from Washington D.C., admits that as a super fan, he is thrilled to see both Ozzy and Coach and knows "they will be huge assets to us.” Ozzy and Coach from survivor DVD then each pick an egg and smash it to see which team they will join. Coach’s egg contains blue paint, so he joins the Upolu tribe with Rick Nelson, Stacey Powell, Brandon Hantz, Sophie Clarke, Albert Destrade, Edna Ma, Mikayla Wingle and Christine Markoski. Ozzy smashes his egg over his heart to find red paint inside. So Ozzy joins the Savaii tribe with Dawn Meehan, Mark Caruso, Elyse Umemoto, Jim Rice, Semhar Tadesse, Keith Tollefson, Whitney Duncan and John Cochran. As Coach walks towards his tribe and sees Christine with a scowl on her face, he admits, "I’m not feeling a good vibe from the blue tribe.” Meanwhile, Ozzy gets a big hug from his tribe. Jeff then reveals to all the castaways that Redemption Island is back. Therefore, when a castaway is voted out at Tribal Council, they will go to Redemption Island, where they will live alone until the next person is voted out. The two will then duel to see who stays on Redemption Island and who goes home. At a certain point in the game, the remaining person on Redemption Island will be able to rejoin the game for another chance at the million-dollar prize.
