On a brisk day in November 1998, a doughy balding Brooklyn computer salesman was supposed to report to prison to begin serving a 17-year sentence. He rented a Ford Taurus. Drove to Queens to turn in the ankle monitor he had been wearing. He took $600 out of an ATM. Headed to JFK airport. And vanished. His name was John Ruffo. The crime he had committed was outlandish. Using forged documents and fake corporate seals, he persuaded banks to loan him $350 million. He invented a nonexistent proposition that he called “Project Star” and he used the money to gamble the millions on the stock market, becoming one of Wall Street’s high-rollers. When the FBI caught wind of his swindle, they set up a sting. At his sentencing, prosecutors made an unthinkable mistake. They agreed to let John Ruffo drive himself to prison. What followed was one of the longest and most challenging manhunts in the history of the U.S. Marshals Service. We discover a man whose life was a hall of mirrors. Secret identities, unlikely affiliations, and bogus companies are uncovered. Was he secretly helping an elite unit of FBI spy-hunters lure Soviet scientists to defect? Did he cut a deal with the mob to help him disappear? Was that him, seated behind home plate at Dodger Stadium? We join the chase as the Marshals try and resolve a case that has baffled and bewildered generations of their colleagues, crossing the globe to ask one pressing question: Have you seen this man?

幸存者:卡拉延 第二十八季节目的戏剧冲突性主要通过两种方式得以实现的,一是人与自然环境的冲突;一是人与人的冲突。这两种冲突不是凭空产生的,而是人为设置的,是建立在游戏规则的强迫性和巨额金钱诱惑性的前提基础之上的。 为强化人与自然环境的冲突,节目将播出的地点选在荒无人烟的小岛上,在这里没有丰美的水果,更不允许幸存者们自带食物,他们只能像当年鲁宾逊那样自己砍柴、生火、搭房、造筏,过着吃昆虫老鼠、被虫咬、受蛇蝎惊吓的生活。为了生存,参加者不得不用尽各种招数,人与自然的对立达到了高潮。由生存危机带来的冲突为节目的刺激奠定了基础。但更刺激的还是体现在人与人之间的对立上。
