Survivor: South Pacific - Episode 8 - Double Agent
First of all, what kind plan is this from Savaii for the merge? Make Cochran a double agent and send Ozzy to Redemption Island to win? Who dreamed this up? Ozzy? LOL
Redemption Island:
Everyone are at the arena to witness the duel -- the last before the merge.
Ozzy is such a bad actor! OMG
Ozzy wins the challenge!
Christine leaves the game.
The tribes merge!
Te Tuna Tribe:
Cochran tries to talk to Coach - but Coach doesn't buy his story - and gives him a pep talk to "fight for himself" instead of his old tribe.
And then Cochran "spills the beans" by telling the old Upolu tribe everything -- did he ditch his old tribe? Or is that part of the strategy? LOL!
Then... Dawn also considers flipping to Upolu -- because they are "nicer" people! Oy.
Immunity Challenge:
Coconut balancing. Two immunity idols: one for the men and one for the women
Dawn wins immunity!
Ozzy wins immunity!
Cochran looks like he will flip! Will he?
Tribal Council:
Votes -
Keith - 6
Rick - 6
Revote!
Keith - 6
Rick - 4
Keith is voted off and sent to Redemption Island.
Cochran flips. WTF. The old Savaii loses the mind game because they are inherently weak! If Ozzy had better people skills, they would have given the hidden immunity idol outright to Cochran to make him feel safe. But it was not to be since they like Upolu now thought they had Cochran under control. Obviously, Upolu won't trust him -- they've only been with him for a couple days.
I'm a bit pissed that Cochran flipped because he really didn't improve his odds. It's like watching a losing hand become worse. Such an unwinnable position he has put himself in. Even if he makes it to the end, who's going to vote for him from the old Savaii? It's impossible. And if you think about it, he was the only person out of the 11 (minus 3 with immunity since they weren't going anywhere) who wanted to stay one more week - everyone else was willing to risk the rocks.
Will anyone from the old Savaii survive now? Is Albert golden to the end?
