Survivor Panama Exile Island: Cirie - The Master Manipulator
Commentary by AP N Tenn
April 28, 2006
|
This week on Survivor Panama: Exile Island Terry won his fourth straight immunity challenge. Those previews sure had me fooled; it appeared he lost the competition. Anyway with Terry's win, we know that one of the former Casaya members will finally get the boot. A clink in their strong alliance was coming, and coming soon!
Who was destined to get their flame snuffed out? Shane perhaps, who has clearly gone bonkers, using a rock as a Blackberry, the on-island shrink should have come and scooped him off to a padded room.
Perhaps Aras, the admittedly strongest Casaya member remaining, the one that is a force to beat Terry will be the next to go.
Courtney maybe, simply because she is so annoying to the rest of the tribemates, and has been since almost day one, will possibly be eliminated from the chance at a million dollars.
I notice that nobody thought to mention Cirie or Danielle getting kicked off the island.
Terry figured he had swayed both Danielle and Courtney into coming to his team, but Danielle had other ideas, like wanting to have it all rather than being number three in their little alliance, so she explored her other options. Enter Cirie who had a plan to get rid of Courtney, because she knew everyone wanted to be sitting next to Courtney at the final tribal council.
Cirie cornered Aras, and let him know that she was backing him, which was welcome news to Aras, since really he would not have had a leg to stand on without Cirie's support. So together with Danielle, Cirie convinced them all to toss the final vote in Courtney's favor sending her packing and no longer in the running for the million bucks. But now she is an angry jury member.
This is not the first time Cirie has maneuvered the votes. Way back at the first vote when the 'older women' lost the first challenge, instead of booting Cirie, who was at first glance, a couch potato, and potentially not the strongest survivor on the island. Instead of getting the first boot right away, Cirie convinced the other women that the Lumberjack should go, why? Because she was spending so much time alone, never mind that she was fishing and bringing cheer to the team, Cirie organized her booting.
When the tribes joined together initially with Cirie and Melinda from the 'older tribes', Again at first glance, it looked like Cirie would be a goner, but nope they booted Melinda, then in a really weird twist Bobby, big strong, athletic, good-at-winning-challenges, Bobby was booted, and yet Cirie remained. It was at this point, that you realized Cirie was a forced to be reckoned with.
Now it is impossible to ignore her powers. Will she win the millions dollars, I don't think so. But since engineering Courtney's boot, Cirie is the new number two person to take to the finals, after all at first glance, you would think she has ridden the coattails to be here, should she win it all? The resounding answer from the jury members that she has backstabbed would be no. But $100,000 is not bad, and she has outwitted Courtney, Lumberjack Lady, and outlasted many others, but did she outplay the others? Time will tell.
A good idea for a future survivor would be to bring back all the people that were booted off first. I think that would yield an interesting season.
