Who returned to change the game?

On Survivor Season 39 Episode 1, a new crop of castaways made their way to the island, and drama ensued. 

With little to go on about the new people, the returnees had to make a quick-fire decision to change the fate of someone's game. 

But who managed to get a visit to the Island of the Idols?

Oh yes, instead of having idols kicking around for all to find, there was a designated island. 

This allowed people to get things to help change their game ... or sink it. 

Did this new ability change the way people played the game?
