Transcript (thanks to VolcanicGlass for the transcript):
Jeff Probst: "Welcome guys... to Survivor: Pearl Islands. Game is on!"
Voiceover: It's game 7 for Survivor, pirate style! A 90-minute premiere on September 18 will introduce these 16 castaways as they set out to tame the remote Pearl Islands off the coast of Panama with literally their clothes on their back. Tell them the rules, Jeff!
Jeff Probst: "You're going into this game with the clothes that you have on your back. Just like if you really were shipwrecked."
VO: So jump on in folks! High heels, suits, doesn't matter. Oh, and by the way, watch out for Rupert here. He has pirate written all over him... or something.
Rupert: "I am  that throwback to the 70s, that tie-dye old hippie that's, you know.... I like to consider myself a well-groomed mountain man. A little flower child."
