Survivor Cook Islands

I was at work late last night and I forgot to set the DVR.

Could someone kindly provide a recap of last night? Sounds like I missed an interesting one!

You did miss a good episode. It starts out with Adam and Parvati sitting on the beach and musing about how they're in the minority. They are trying to figure out a way to shake things up a bit so they won't be picked off.

The reward challenge was pretty funny. The survivors had to literally roll around a mud pit and see how much mud they could squeeze off their bodies into a bucket. The person with the most mud in their bucket won the reward challenge.

It wasn't even close-- Ozzy won by a landslide. The winner and two runner ups (Yul and Parvati) all got to go to a gorgeous spa for the night-- for a shower, massage, big meal, and a jacuzzi. Parvati was flirting like crazy in the spa, hoping to win over Ozzy.

Meantime, Ozzy sent Adam to Exile Island... while Becky and Sundra went back to camp.

The next challenge was a balance beam and a puzzel. Ozzy won that one too for immunity.

At tribal council, Parvati was voted out. Sundra received two votes.

I would be happy with either Ozzie or Yul winning. Both have played an excellent game. Ozzie just kicks ass in all of the challenges- he moves like some sort of animal- so fluid.

Tonight's council meeting really p***ed me off. Candice and Parvati rolling their eyes while Yul talked made me very happy to know that he has outplayed them. Adam, Candace, and Parvati need to get over the fact that Yul and his tribe outplayed them. Adam's whole speech was geared to driving a wedge between the last members. It's a game you idiots! Y'all would have done the same to Yul, Becky, Sundra, and Ozzy if you had been winners instead of losers!

I agree.. and they need to remember that Survivor is "outwit, outplay, outlast." Yul certainly out-witted and outpayed much better than Becky and Ozzy... although Ozzy was an extremely strong player.

How embarrassing for Becky and Sundra to not be able to build a fire after 35 on the island. Ouch! It was hilarious watching the looks on the faces of those in the jury.. half of them falling asleep while the two fumbled with flint, and couldn't even start a fire with matches!

I was very happy to see Yul (the godfather!) win the million. He deserves it.

I would have been happier had Ozzy won, but I'm glad it was so close. I think Yul got all the credit even though he, Ozzy, Sundra, and Becky all worked as a team.

I haven't watched the reunion part of the show yet, but it seems like a lot of the jury members were really angry. I'll be interested to hear their comments.

Yul didn't outwit. The others chose to let him win by not making him use the Hidden Immunity Idol earlier in the game. Everybody knew he had it and seemed to just figure "Well, he has the HII, so we'll just let him slide". At some point, they could have set things up so that 3 players voted for Yul and 2 voted for the "real" target, thereby making Yul play the HII and the real target would still get voted off. They weren't smart enough. If Yul didn't have the HII, would he have gotten this far? Ozzy got that far purely on his own merits and for that, I would have voted for him to win. I don't dislike Yul, but I think Ozzy worked harder. How many immunities did he win in a row? And, they were both physical AND mental too, so it wasn't just brawn.
