Survivor -- 10- Dec-2009 -- Double Elimination

Russell pulls the wool over Shambo's eyes way too easily. She's so gullible where Russell is concerned that it's scary. I definitely wouldn't want her working security anywhere. Yes, her name does come up frequently because of the things she says and does; it's unreal. Basically, Russell gave her a big fat lie as to why she was the only who wasn't on board when John got voted out.

Jaison is way too open with the others on his strategy to the others. He's not a bad guy, but I'm not so sure about his methods.

For the first immunity challenge, it was bowling ... island style. They had some cheap balls to use to knock down the cheap pins. Silly Shambo thought she was going to take the immunity idol. Uh, no Shambo -- that just is not going to happen. Jaison managed to win immunity for the second time in a row. Impressive. Looks like he's trying to make up for past group losses.

Back at camp, Monica put the seed of thought into Russell's head to vote out Shambo. Russell seemed to consider it at first, but ended up voting off Dave. At tribal council, Dave was the only one to write down Shambo's name. Unfortunately, everyone else also voted for Dave and so he was the next person to join the jury.

Russell is now trying to focus on voting off Brett. However, at the next immunity challenge, Brett saved his neck by winning immunity. So the next target that came Russell set his eyes on was Monica -- who completely ruffled his feathers at camp. Did her plot work? Possibly. She already set the poison in people's minds to vote off Russell. It's not the first time his name has shown up on the target, but apparently, that move made Monica a bigger target. At tribal, Russell showed off the hidden immunity idol, but did not play it. Only two people voted for Russell, with the remaining votes going towards Monica. The other one who voted for Russell? It was Brett. So the saga continues.

Will the rest of them vote off Shambo in time? or better yet, will they vote off Russell in time? Without Russell, Shambo is an even easier target to get rid of. Personally, I'd like to see Mick, Jaison, and Natalie as the final three. I would rest easy if they were top three. Russell and Shambo in the top three? Brrrr. I feel a shudder going down my spine.
