Boston Rob, Phillip and Natalie in the Finale.

Murlonio:

Phillip burns his saggy plum-colored briefs.

Tribal Council:

Natalie and Phillip pretty much gave all credit to Rob, LOL.

The jury are so bitter! I wonder where it was coming from. The jury talk to each before the Q&A so someone may have been trying to push for Rob to lose because of how ruthless Rob has played (Matt? Julie?)

And then finally, David makes a speech to the jury: vote for Rob. "He managed to blindside Matt. He controlled all of you. You all bought it. There's a guy out there who just played the best strategic game this game has ever seen."

Results -

The votes!

Phillip - 1
Rob - 5
Natalie -

And the winner of Survivor: Redemption Island is: Boston Rob Mariano

Congratulations! The greatest win in Survivor history.

Rob won the player of the season! Matt was second in the voting.

David proposed to Carolina Eastwood from Survivor: Tocantins. Aside from the fact that she cussed and looked like she was going to say 'no' (she said 'yes'), we don't really remember her because she was the FIRST to be voted off during her season.
