Survivor: China - Episode 05 - Love Is in the Air

* * * SPOILERS * * *

Survivor: China

Erik Taylor and Jaime Nicole become close. Erik: "I'm a virgin."

And then... Game twist time!

Each tribe is made to choose two members of the other tribe to move to their camp. Fei Long chooses Frosti (oh no!) and Sherea, while Zhan Hu chooses Aaron and James.

Then what transpires would be the most unbelievable backdoor we're only used to seeing in Big Brother.

After thinking about what had happened, Jaime and Peih-Gee realize that if Fei Long wins two immunity challenges, the chances of Frosti and Sherea leaving are very high -- which in the event that the merge occurs at 10, we would be left with 3 Zhan Hu vs. 7 Fei Long. So they decide to throw the immunity challenge! It was a big risk, but worth giving a shot. Zhan Hu is actually giving everyone in the game a favor by deciding that they will get rid of the two strongest players NOW. It's almost a no brainer, except that no one knows really when the merge will occur.

So the immunity challenge is thrown, then from out of the blue, James throws a hissy fit. Omigod. The original plan was to get rid of Aaron, but then Erik, Jaime and Peih-Gee had to consider James because he was being so disruptive -- the type of anger that always gets somebody voted off.

During tribal council the animosity with James continued... and the fifth person voted out of Survivor: China is...

Aaron!

One of the best votes ever.

Hang in there Frosti, Zhan Hu is coming back to get you.
