Was that not the most drama you've ever seen in a tribal council?!? Whoa! A shouting match no less. Could Neleh have looked more cocky after Sean got the vote?! Oh, my heck, she has fallen way in the ranks with me! [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] Frankly Paschal had an air of cockyness to himself this episode as well. [img]graemlins/ukid.gif[/img] I really think Kathy is gonna take it, and I'm pulling for either her or Vee!

I don't like any of them. I really liked Sean, he was an instigator. Kind of like me. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

You're right Steve. That was the best tribal counsel I've ever seen. I thought Jeff was going to have to break it up! The outcome was great! Just what I've always wanted! I'm really rooting for Kathy now!

[Fortissimo]

What happened? We had our concert tonight and I missed it. DH even forgot to tape it for me (he's gonna get voted out for that one!).

Oops - this is really patsy-c posting by mistake under DD's log on.

Sorry Forti, by bond of marriage you have an alliance with DH -- whether spoken or inferred -- and he can't be voted out without a vote of the tribal council, so it's up to all of Survivor members who have been voted off. Should DH be voted off because he didn't tape Survivor? Time to cast your vote.

Okay, here's what happened. Oh, but first, I'll tell you that Saturday they are replaying tonight's episode -- if you want to watch then just skip the rest of my post. If not, read on.

RC - Jeff announces a long challenge that combines all previous IC's. Members must find tiki pieces/assemble tiki, fill vial with juice from cracked coconuts, walk 10' on stilts, find key in coconut, open crate, remove slingshot, break tile to cover their tiki with sand. Winner gets a Saturn SUV! Sean begins in 3rd place but breezes by everyone at the coconut stage and is a winner by a long shot.

Kathy realizes she's the swing vote and ponders which way to go. Vee opens up a fireside discussion which brings out that P/N will not vote against each other. Kathy says she didn't realize the alliance was that tight. Then Neleh brings up that S/V have an alliance, which they contend they don't. Sean points out that V has distanced herself from Sean on a few occasions, and just because they are both African/Americans doesn't mean they have an alliance. The next day P tells K that it's clear S/V have had this strategy from the very beginning. Kathy said she doesn't see it. (Frankly, neither do I).

IC. Jeff calls them to a place of Marquesan historical significance and tells them the story of that place. The reward will be based on their answers to the questions about the story. Very interesting story, by the way. After the story the 5 Survivors travel around to "stations" where they answer questions and receive tiki beads for correct answers. A necklace with 5 tiki beads wins. K & N arrive at the finish at approximately the same time - but Jeff points out that each of them have lost a tiki from their necklace! K finds hers first and wins immunity.

Tribal Council - sparks! Jeff asks Kathy if she wants to give up immunity. She says she is surprised that no one has approached her to negotiate before council. Jeff asks if anyone has an offer for her now. Sean doesn't hesitate to ask for the necklace in exchange for not voting against Kathy in the future. He says that Kathy can join him and Vee. P has an "Aha" and points out that Sean's comments prove that he and V ARE in an alliance. Sean tries to explain that his offer is not for Kathy to join a S/V alliance but rather that Kathy join those that are not part of the N/P alliance. P and S just really get heated about this and it really doesn't set well with anyone. In the end, Sean receives 3 votes over Neleh's 2 votes.

That's my "quick" summary. Gee, I talk as much as much as Sean, don't I?

Here's my stumper. (I am not reading the spoiler which tells the winner). Kathy has now foregone 2 opportunities 2 break up the N/P alliance, yet she KNOWS that if they are the final 3 she'll be voted out. Why? Does she think that they're the weakest members and she can outdo them in the challenges? (P looked very weak this week). What about V. She still looks very strong. And if V wins immunity next week Kathy will be out. I don't understand Kathy's strategy. Oh well, we only have a few days to wait!
