Survivor fans have been expecting MrBeast, also known as Jimmy Donaldson, to join Jeff Probst and the players of Survivor 50 all season. Now, that moment is finally here, and MrBeast has brought some chaos to the final 10 players this season in episode 10, "A Side Dish of Chaos."

After the Survivor 50 auction winds down, Jeff has one more surprise for the players. MrBeast pulls up to the auction with a special Survivor briefcase. In it, we have the MrBeast Super Beware Advantage.

Spoilers for Survivor 50 episode 10 ahead!

For a second, it looks like we're about to start bidding on this MrBeast Super Beware Advantage, but then, just as he appeared, MrBeast leaves the auction with the briefcase, and Jeff reveals that it's a Tribal Council thing for tonight's vote and that the immunity challenge starts right now. No spearfishing trip and fish fry with MrBeast, apparently!

Tiffany Ervin wins the immunity challenge, which kicks off a wild day of everyone getting their name thrown out as a possible target.

In the past, the Beware Advantage has been a way for Survivor to offer a hidden immunity-like reward or other advantage while upping the stakes. Usually, the player has to complete a task in an allotted time frame or lose their vote.

This is the most chaotic episode of Survivor 50 to date, and it's only getting crazier heading into Tribal Council.

MrBeast Super Beware Advantage changes everything

At Tribal Council, Rick Devens tries to save his own skin and puts Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick on blast a little bit. Then, Jeff reveals the MrBeast is here and ready to go, so they bring him out at Tribal Council.

MrBeast opens the briefcase and reveals that the MrBeast Super Beware Advantage is a gold coin. On one side, you have Beast Games logo, and the Survivor logo on the other.

One player must volunteer to flip the coin. If they make the right call, the player who flips the coin and wins gets immunity tonight, an immunity idol for future Tribal Councils, and the prize money doubles to $2 milllion.

That's the reward. The risk is much worse.

Unfortunately, the person who flips the coin, if they lose, will be eliminated. No one will be voted out.

If the coin hits and doubles the money, though, another player will be voted out.

That's the Super Beware! Double the money, double your life in the game, or you go home. That's it.

There's no doubt this is the biggest twist of Survivor 50 so far, and it's one of the must fun sequences of the game that we've seen this season.

Devens immediately volunteers for the opportunity. The other players want to know if that's the right thing for his game, but Devens wants the shot. They give it to him.

Epic Party
“Epic Party” – 24 returning players are abandoned on the islands of Fiji for a monumental 50th season, with the chance to win $1 million. The theme of the season, “In the Hands of the Fans,” quickly materializes as decisions from the fan vote swiftly and forcefully impact the game in Survivor 50.

Devens wins the coin flip, $2 million, and immunity

Devens calls heads and flips the coin. It lands on heads! Devens wins an extra $1 million for the Survivor 50 winner thanks to MrBeast. And, he's safe in the game tonight. What an absolute adrenaline rush!

Now, the other players must go back to the drawing board and vote another player out of the game because Devens can't be voted out. What follows is, as Jeff puts it, "the most live Tribal we've had in Survivor history."

In the end, Stephenie, after getting called out at Tribal Council by Devens, is voted out of the game.

What a wild episode of Survivor 50! I feel like we're going to have a hard time topping that again this season.
