Survivor Samoa -- 17 December 2009

After tribal council, they showed Brett rubbing Shambo's head. Really Brett? Ewwwww!!! (Shudder, shudder)
Brett still has a large target on his back where Russell and other members of Foa Foa are concerned. Although, given the choice between Brett and Mick, I think Natalie might be tempted to write down Mick's name before Brett. I was wondering if Russell would be able to convince Shambo to write down Brett's name if it came down to it. Then again, Shambo just asks how high whenever Russell asks or suggests that she do something. 

For the rewards challenge, Natalie and Russell picked rocks that determined them leaders of two groups. Right away, Natalie picked Brett as a team member, making her alliance members worry a bit. For the other other team mate, she chose Mick. Why not? They're both fit and clever guys. I would've done the same. Unfortunately, this challenge was more a game of chance than anything. Sadly, Natalie's team lost out on the reward's challenge. 

The immunity challenge: Good ol' Brett won again. He's safe for the final five. 

Finally, finally, Jaison made the best suggestion: to get rid of Shambo. I wasn't sure if him approaching Russell first was the best route to take, but it worked. He quickly told Russell his plan and as he was about to walk away, Shambo was approaching. Russell was quick on his lies and told Shambo another sweet lie to calm her down -- that Jaison was considering voting off Mick. As to why Jaison just walked away, Russell explained to her that he was just tired and frustrated. Jaison probably couldn't poker face and lie to her himself, so it's just as well he walked off.

At tribal, Shambo was just smiling away and blatantly admitted she was a traitor to the Galu tribe. That's just sooo Shambo -- not clever. I mean seriously. By blatantly smiling away and admitting that she went against her tribe, who makes up most of the jury, did she really expect to gain any votes if she made it to the final spot? Then, when Jeff brought this little tid bit of information up, as if he was reading my mind, she just gave that blankety-blank smiley face she usually gives, showing off her clueless self. Duh!
At last, at last! Finally Shambo is out of the running! A united vote across the board sent her packing. Woohooo!! It'll be interesting to see who makes it to the top spots in Sunday's finale. Stay tuned.
