While doing some key stalking I took a break to eat a snack and then went back to check the game. I asked if any apples had popped up while I was gone. I was then PMed by TheSexiestDude990 :
"No apples but I did get a key"
Another Survivor moment, from the Pearl Islands this time. Jon, in a bid to stay in the game, offers Sandra a final three with himself and Burton. Sandra agrees to Jon' s face, but in a confessional says "But under my breath, I was saying ' I' m gonna screw you annnnnnnd Burton'" Burton was soon voted out, and Sandra would go on to win the Pearl Islands. More epic Sandra.
Post Merge Marquesas saw a stark contrast between the dominant, smug Rotu four of John, Robert, Zoe, and Tammy and the Maraamu underdogs of Kathy, Sean and Vecepia. Paschal and Neleh were in the middle aligned themselves with the Rotu four initially. All that changed at the coconut chopping immunity challenge, where players would answer trivia questions about the Marquesas in order to chop someone else' s bushels of coconuts. Last person left would win immunity. The Rotu four spared no mercy as they worked together to eliminate even Neleh and Paschal. After that challenge Paschal and Neleh flipped and the Rotu four were sent packing one by one.
Remember the infamous Ulong tribe that got decimated in Survivor: Palau, winning only 3 reward challenges and losing every single immunity challenge, voting out all their members at tribal? And after Steph beat Bobby Jon in a fire making challenge, she was the only member of Ulong left. Tge moment when she opened treemail and learned she was finally merging was exhilirating, it meant a new beginning for her and a distinction of "Sole Survivor of the Ulong self- Pagonging." Steph was voted out two episodes later, but managed to make the jury and placed seventh overall. Considering the train wreck of a tribe she came from, she did quite well.
It's the final 6 of Survivor Panama and everyone wants to take Courtney to the end, believing they can beat her, which makes Cirie target her. To allow her alliance with Danielle and Aras to vote Courtney out, she convinces Shane that the plan is to vote Danielle out. Thus Courtney and Terry vote Aras, Shane votes Danielle and Cirie, Danielle, and Aras vote Courtney. Cirie messes up Shane's plans, Terry's plans, and puts her alliance in the majority, all at the same time. Even though Cirie came up short in a fire-starting tiebreaker, thus is still an example of masterful gameplay.
One of the many Survivor: Micronesia blindsides. Amanda BS ed her way through the final 6 tribal council essentially, pretending like she was done and putting on a pouty face. But when Jeff asked for idols, she said "About that...." And Erik, Natalie, and Alexis all got got "Oh Shit" looks on their faces. Alexis was blindsided 4-2, The four votes against Amanda not counting. The fact that pre- tribal even the viewers were unsure whether Amanda had the idol or not makes this one my favorite Survivor moments
