Once again, tribal council did not fail to entertain. Where to start!? For the third time this season a contestant left the game for medical reasons. I'm sure we all remember Mary - who could forget her psychotic episode on the beach before the nice men in white coats took her away. Then Jonathan's knee got infected from a cut he got at a challenge, and now James' finger sends him packing.
As the last man standing, Erik was definitely getting the proverbial boot. Sadly for the girls, Erik threw a huge wrench in their plans by winning immunity. What to do?! The girls were forced to turn on each other, basically picking the biggest threat, aka the nicest person on the island. Sadly for Amamnda, this dubious distinction fell to her. To top it off, Amanda is sent to Exile Island. She sets out to find the idol, only to find out it's actually buried back at camp. Drats.
Amanda confides in Parvarti she knows where it is, and Parv conspires with Amanda to give her time to find the idol. Last we see before tribal is Amanda starting to dig under the flag.
Come tribal council, Amanda bertated Erik for not helping her out (she had saved his ass earlier in the season). She held hands with Parvarti, and said she knew she was going home. Everyone votes, and then the obligitory question "does anyone have the hidden immunity idol?" comes up. With a smile and a wave of her hand, Amanda says something like "I have that, right here!". With the exception of Parvati, the looks on everyone's faces were priceless. Obviously other tribe members were NOT happy, but the best was the laughing and high-fives going on with the Jury members. Alexis was promptly send packing courtesy of Amanda and Parvarti.
I love it! Amanda has been my favorite for a while, so it was awesome to see her pull it off. You go girl!
