I'm not a Good Villain



Sorry to not say this in my last post, but James was eventually voted out unanimously, or unanimous in Survivor terms, because you can’t vote for yourself. Anyway, this episode held another surprise. The Heroes finally won another challenge. In fact, they won both the reward and the immunity challenge. Colby got in gear and was able to dominate the challenges. I think he was the one who scored all of the baskets in the reward challenge. Actually, he couldn’t have, but I think he made 2 of the baskets. They were also able to win the immunity challenge even though there was a puzzle at the end. The Heroes actually seemed to be blazing through the puzzle this time. The Villains were delayed slightly because of when Courtney had to make a recovery and when they got to the puzzle, it seemed like Rob, who was normally good with puzzles, was struggling with his. He seemed really rattled and might have given up when the Heroes were down to a few pieces. The reason why he would be rattled would be kind of obvious, Russell’s plan had worked and he knew that he was the next target. When the Villains were back they were originally thinking about getting rid of Courtney because she would (or had) snapped (like a twig), or something along those lines. In the end, though, only one person voted for Courtney, Coach. He did this because he was caught between promises and voted for Courtney; by the way I’m not as sure how Courtney got on the Villains tribe, but anyway.... Russell was also trying to get someone else in the alliance besides Coach. That person was Jerri. Russell was able to get Jerri do join his side, but Coach did not join, even though he might next time. Coach said that Russell was taking advantage of Jerri’s “Naïveté” and would not join his side. But, regardless, Rob was voted out. This could go in multiple directions, now that there is not as much squabble, the Villains might do better or Rob’s absence might drive them into the dust. Then, we don’t know whether the Heroes will stay energetic or not and whether they will beat the Villains again or not. However, if a merge happens, that will be a different story, but I would guess that the different alliances will stay away, if the smaller ones don’t band together.
