I’m not sure what to think of Phillip. Is he a good actor ala Johnny Fairplay or is he really the guy he says he is? What do you think? I am glad the Survivor people provided the players with swimsuits, but what I can’t understand is why he still insisted on wandering around camp in his flamingo pink underwear. Gross.
I think it’s awesome Ralph found the immunity idol and I think it’s even more awesome that he called Russell out on having the clue. Russell, of course, lied about it. I think Russell over reacted with his “I don’t like how you’re coming up at me,” or whatever. He’s far too cocky, too. Just because Ralph hasn’t been in the game before doesn’t mean he doesn’t know how it works. He and his man sweater seems to be doing okay so far.
Ometepe lost the challenge again. After they lost Matt took it upon himself to shake the hands of the winning tribe. While that seems like good sportsmanship, com’on, this is Survivor. When has sportsmanship ever played a roll? His tribe mates were pissed. Phillip blamed himself for the loss because he screwed up the end bit of breaking the five tiles, and suggested he be the one to go home because of his error. Rob took Phillip into his confidence as a test. Phillip passed the test. Kristina played the immunity idol. Matt and Andrea (his closest alliance) were blindsided when the tribe (on Rob’s command) voted Matt off.
Next week, I think, we get to see Matt and Francesca battle it out at Redemption Island. It’s going to be a good twist.
