Episode Summary

EDIT

AIRED: 12/3/09

After the vote for Laura, John explains to Monica why his vote went towards a former a Galu member. This does not sit well with Monica who says that John showed no loyalty and should be the next to go. The next morning, the tribe gets money in their tree mail for the Survivor Auction. At the auction, John buys a clue for the hidden immunity idol but when he looks for it, he can't find it and thinks that Russell may have already found it. Then, when the tribe decides to eat a chicken, "Shambo" takes charge of the cooking and argues with Dave. That night, "Shambo" has a dream that the tribe voted Dave out. She tells Russell about it and the plan to vote out Dave is born. After the Immunity Challenge, all of the former Foa Foa tribe are with "Shambo" to vote for Dave. But as Russell is talking to John, he thinks John is more of a threat and should be the one to go. Russell talks to Dave about his plan and tries to get others on board.moreless

An interesting episode with a great challenge and unexpected outcome!

This episode wasn't quite the best this season, but I still really enjoyed it. I loved the idea of the auction, and I loved Jaison's strategy of buying the 'help' for the Immunity Challenge.

I also loved the Immunity Challenge, and I was happily surprised when Natalie made it so far, and disappointed when she finally dropped out.

I felt sorry for Shambo when her chicken friends were decapitated. That was disappointing.

I was also pretty disappointed at Tribal Council, when John was voted out, which I believed was a mistake, but only time will tell.

Overall, a very interesting episode with many great elements. Keep it up, Survivor!moreless

Full of herself after Laura was voted out, Shambo thinks she can control the game and single handedly decide who will be voted out next. However she once again underestimates a certain guy named Russell.moreless

Foa Foa has staged the comeback of the century on "Survivor". Possibly the best comeback ever in the show's history. I have never watched the "Survior" reunion show following the finale, but I may have to watch it this time because I am very interested in seeing the reactions of all the other castaways when they learn that Russell has lied to them and manipulated all of them so easily. It will be very interesting to see how the jury reacts to this news after they have awarded Russell the $1 million prize. It's going to be a fun finale.moreless

Another blindside...Russell gets a bit rusty.

I must say this episode left me a bit disappointed with Russell.

I always envisioned him as someone who has studied every detail related to Survivor.

Yet at Survivor auction he didn't bought the significant advantage item, which puzzled me.Is he getting to confident?I also saw him giving up to easy on the immunity challenge.

In my opinion he is playing on thin ice, voting John and upsetting Shambo, makes it 4-4.Of course Shambo could be next which could secure him a fifth vote. However members of Foa-Foa start suspecting him of foul play.

Next episode should be interesting, as in my opinion Russell will have the fight of his life.

One thing I hope it does not happen is for Russell to be eliminated with the idol in his pocket.moreless

- Russell: (referring to telling John that he has the hidden immunity idol) These poor people need to close their ears when I start talking 'cause when I tell you something and I made a mistake, I gotta get rid of you. It was my mistake. Sorry, John, you gotta go home.
  EDIT SHARE
- Shambo: Dave is so gone, he doesn't even know it.
  EDIT SHARE
- Monica: I definitely have come to see John a little bit more as a Judas of the old Galu tribe and John definitely has to go home.

- Shambo: (referring to Laura being voted out) Medusa has been dethroned. Is that just hysterical?
