Survivor Samoa: Idiot Island And The Lost Immunity Idol

Well that would be in how Erik tried to garner the three Foa Foa votes.
First off, Erik tells them he thinks he knows a way all four of them can stick around.
Um, dude? Unless they pull a big-time Survivor first, only one person is going at Tribal Council. Not four.
Second, he tells them that he knows that The Dick™ has a talisman and he wants it burned without The Dick™ going home.
Um, dude? You’ve just told allies of the guy with the talisman that you want it burned without it being used.
What’s their benefit?
Oh, right! If they don’t vote the way Erik suggests, then he can’t guarantee that the four of them will be there tomorrow.
Because, again, of that special Tribal Council where you vote out four people in succession.
I’ve dissed The Dick™ for playing too hard, but did Erik ever turn it on too much here, in spades.
Right outta the gate, Jaison didn’t like it.
Neither did Natalie.
And, Mick showed us that for a big, strong guy, he’s in desperate need of a spine transplant.
Seriously man! You guys tell me what to do?
Forget the spine, Mick. Grow a set.
Anyhoo, enter the new potential power-player in this game: Natalie.
This girl started to work shit, and got Laura thinking, and then when Kelly was brought into the mix, suddenly Erik was looking like toast.
Then, some shit happened that I wasn’t sure about.
Laura and Kelly told Dave what was up. Yeeps!
Natalie tells The Dick™ she just saved his ass. And he proceeds to tell her that she only THINKS she did, but he doubts it.
Way to foster goodwill with an ally dumbass.
Right there, The Dick™ may have handed Natalie a million dollars.
Dude, she did it, whether or not you choose to believe it.
Then, the scrambling amongst the ex-Galu begins in earnest.
And then we head to Tribal Council.
Where, Erik continues to shit the bed in epic proportions.
It’s one thing to be making comments to make The Dick™ think he should play his idol, but it’s another entirely to come off as so pretentious that you could even alienate one of the votes that you need to make your blindside work.
In short, Erik was an idiot with everything he said at Tribal Council..
Granted, most times when people head into Tribal Council, they already know who they’re going to vote for. But given a tenuous situation, when you’re trying to orchestrate a blindside, that’s just incredibly dumb.
And, given the fact that everybody other than himself and Shannon voted his ass out, Erik comes off as an even bigger dweeb.
And apparently, next week, The Dick™ becomes the consensus pick to boot.
As much as I’d like to see that come to fruition, I’ll believe it when I see it.
So, let’s get to the run-down, shall we?
1) Natalie; Yup, she jumps to number one. She did some good maneuvering this episode and is playing the social game very well. Plus, she’s on no one’s radar.
2) Laura; She’s got allies and enemies, but I think she’s safe for now.
3) Dave; I’m gonna bump him up a bit, but I dunno if it’s a good gauge of his chances to win. He’s at least in tune with what’s going on and isn’t being stupid.
4) Kelly; She’s not on anyone’s radar, and isn’t pissing anyone off. At present that looks like a good path to the final four.
5) Monica; Even though she’s been on some people’s target list, at this point they should be looking at bigger targets.
6) The Dick™; Despite the previews for next week, I don’t think he’s going out too soon.
7) Mick; I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a physical specimen try to under-the-radar it, but since Jaison was the other preferred target, he could last.
8-9) John/Brett; Brett’s not doing anything, and John is an idiot.
10) Jaison; He’s on people’s hit list.
11) Shannon; Outta the loop, and outta clues. This chick has no idea what she’s doing and could end up being the next boot by default.
There ya have it folks!
Hope you all enjoyed what I had to divulge, but even if you didn’t it won’t cost me any sleep tonight, so why the hell should I care whether you liked it or not?
Cause I’m just that kinda guy.
Cheers!
