Let's call this episode "the big yawn". There are several reasons I call it that. First, in the duel on Redemption Island, Dawn yawned causing her balancing plates to fall and relegating her to the jury. Ozzie also eliminated Whitney, whose plates fell a few minutes later, which caused me to yawn because it was obvious by his focus and concentration that Ozzie was going to win. I honestly wish Dawn and Whitney could somehow have stayed on Survivor. And as they were dismissed by Probst, did I not detect an obvious look on the faces of the audience/their former foes, that perhaps both Dawn and Whitney deserved to be in the game more than anyone still left? Well, that's what it looked like to me...
So Ozzie is once again the last man standing on Redemption Island until next week (yawn).
Another yawn occurred when Cochran called a meeting of the Te Tuna tribe (see photo) and announced that his treachery was the reason they'd eliminated all the former members of Savaii, and he deserved another pass at the next tribal council. Oh Cochran, the writing is on the wall dude, and nothing is going to save you (yawn).
At the immunity challenge, Albert wins immunity. The big prize is a spa-day complete with a shower and massage. Surprisingly, Albert chooses Coach as his person that gets to have the massage too. And then a shocker, Albert gives his own spot at massage day to Cochran. I guess because it's Cochran's birthday in a couple days... who knows?
Anyhow, at tribal council Brandon breaks down again and cries and babbles for a while about how anything worth having is not going to be easy (this kid is still unbalanced - yawn), and Cochran reminds everyone how much he deserves to stay three more days (I already yawned for that one).
So Cochran gets voted off, puts out his torch and heads off to Redemption Island to get chewed up and spat out by Ozzie in next week's duel. Oh darn... I think I'm going to yawn again.
