This next merge episode had some conflict from allies on the bottom of the totem pole. This one is:
ONE WORLD!
One World is a season that started with so much potential. But then it all started to come crashing down. In the early stages of the season, it was starting to look like a good post-merge battle between Colton and Kim for power. But then, Colton gets hurt and gets medically evacuated and that leads us into into the merge with 6 guys and 6 girls.
The actual merge on paper looks like it could be interesting with a gender/tribe clash. Thew thing was, Kim just had too strong of an influence on everybody for it to be interesting. She kept the 3 guys on her tribe on her side (Troyzan, Jay and Mike) and also got Alicia and Christina back on her side. With this, there was now a 9-3 majority all wrapped around Kim. The target then clearly became Jonas with Tarzan thrown in as an option #2 for annoyance. The 3 misfits were in danger and nobody would go back to them. The only entertainment from this episode was the bickering between Jonas and Tarzan against each other to try and survive. It was interesting to see what levels people would go down to for survival and how easily former allies would turn on each other. Not that they were that close in the first place but they were still allies. But unfortunately, we came to the boring and predictable conclusion of Jonas' vote-off. I did like Jonas as I found him to be a good utr strategist. He was boring for most but I actually thought he was good for the season.
The impact from this episode is the main reason why this one made it so high. As boring as it was to see play out, this episode did basically clinch majority for Kim to perform her main move next episode to turn on the stronger guys from her tribe. It put the 6 women in position to take over the game for good. Jonas was also by far the biggest threat of the 3 misfits. But in the end, the episode was a little too boring compared to others for the impact to make up for it.
Stay tuned for #23! Hint- this episode had a blindside that was poorly edited
