Survivor:Samoa Recap 10/29/09
Survivor:Samoa begins tonight with the men of Galu deciding to make Shambo the new tribe leader after the unexpected exit of Chief Russell last week. The Galu men want to increase their chances against the women on their tribe and hope to do so by working with Shambo.
The reward challenge is a memory game: thirteen pairs of survival items and four dummy pieces with no matches. The first to get to seven points wins, although tribal chiefs have the option to take an item they matched in exchange for a point. They are playing for a trip on a sailboat for an afternoon out on the water with a full lunch and the opportunity to send one member to the losing tribe as a spy. Galu wins the challenge and as the new tribe leader, Shambo sends Laura over to Foa Foa saying that she needs her men strong for the immunity challenge and she doesn’t want to go for a third time.
Russell quickly pulls Laura aside when they return to the Foa Foa camp and they agree on a secret alliance. The plan is protection when the merge happens, an alliance with Natalie, and the promise of the final two together.
The tribes gather for the immunity challenge. They must paddle boats out into the water to retrieve six sets of fish-shaped puzzle pieces, and then arrange the puzzle to win the immunity. Galu once again dominates and Foa Foa has to go to tribal council and vote out one of their members.
There is some buzz around the Foa Foa camp about voting off Jaison who hasn’t been stepping up at the challenges, but Liz is ultimately voted off. At tribal council Jeff tells Foa Foa they have the worst overall performance of any tribe in the game’s history.
Tonight’s votes;
Jaison, Liz, Liz, Liz. Sixth person voted out of Survivor:Samoa is Liz. the tribe is down to four members now.
Next week on Survivor, The merge takes place and Russell says, “all hell breaks loose”.
Liz’s exiting comments, She is glad that she made it as far as she did and hopes that her tribe makes it to the win.
