Episode #4...The biggest blindside ever.

Wow... I was completely shocked by Survivor last night. Did Mikey B really just get voted out? I feel that Joel has decided he wanted to be the man in control of everything and felt that, even without Mary, Joel still thought Mikey B had to much control of the game. Joel has impressed me more than anyone this season, and more than anyone ever except for James last season. Unfortunately for him, he now has a HUGE target on his back, and I feel like someone in the Airai (fans) tribe will decide that he REALLY NEEDS TO GO, before the merge where he could win individual immunity.



Here is a review of last night's episode.

Episode 4: That's Baked, Barbecued and Fried!

At Airai, Chet's lack of work around camp irritated his tribe mates. At the Malakal campsite, Eliza was feeling sick and James criticized his alliance's decision to vote out Yau-Man instead of Eliza, whom he felt was the weakest member of the tribe. Malakal won the Reward Challenge after Ozzy's strategy of singlehandedly pushing his tribe's coconuts to the front of the steel cage made it easier for his tribe mates to retrieve their coconuts. Kathy was sent to Exile Island for the third consecutive time with Ozzy joining her. On Exile Island, a disheartened Kathy did not want to look for the Hidden Immunity Idol, so Ozzy followed the clues on his own under the pretense of looking for food. He succeeded in finding the Idol and kept his discovery a secret from Kathy. Borrowing Yau-Man's strategy from Survivor Fiji, Ozzy fashioned a false Idol and placed it where he found the real Idol. Eliza tried to keep herself in the game by talking to Parvati about voting out Jonathan, but Jonathan overheard them. At the Immunity Challenge, Airai struggled to unlock their hub and maneuver through the forest. Malakal won their second challenge in a row by a wide margin. Mikey B, feigning loyalty to Joel, lobbied to vote out Chet. Tracy approached Joel about a plan to use her alliance with Chet and Kathy to help vote out Mikey B. Tracy's plan came to fruition and Mikey B was voted out 6-3.

• Reward Challenge: Four members of each tribe would swim out to a floating platform. One at a time, a castaway would dive down to a 30 foot long steel cage that contained coconuts painted in tribe colors and with letters on them. The coconuts would have to be placed in a floating bin and the bin pulled back to shore. The four remaining castaways would unscramble a word puzzle using the letters on the coconuts.
• Reward: The winning tribe will win three hens and one rooster along with chicken feed.
• Immunity Challenge: Six tribe members would race to six point, sliding hub and harness themselves in. The six would then pass around a keyring to find a key their individual lock that secured the hub to a stand. Once unlocked, the hub would have to be maneuvered through the forest where six puzzle piece necklaces were hanging on trees. The two remaining tribemates would use the necklaces as keys on a decoding wheel, which would decrypt a three word phrase.

Most impressive player from Episode 2:
#1 Ozzy- He single handedly won that reward challenge for his team by moving all the coconuts, plus he found the Hidden Immunity Idol. Great day for him.
