Jeff Probst rehashing what’s happened so far this season takes up the first five minutes. We hit the skip button 10 times, and Day 37 begins with some beautiful water shots contrasted with Russell walking down the beach with tree mail.
Balance, speed and patience are going to be required for the next immunity challenge.
The tribe is sleeping, and Russell is complaining that they are a “bunch of misfits.” Jaison and Mick are strategizing about the need to get rid of Brett. Russell tells Natalie if Brett wins another immunity she will be out. Random thought: Natalie looks pretty good with her hair down. Russell is still yapping about Brett not being a superstar, and that “He’s no Mike Tyson ... he’s Brett.”
It’s time for the immunity challenge, and the final five approach. Jeff asks if it’s still the Foa Foa against Brett and Russell confirms. It’s an obstacle/puzzle challenge for a guaranteed spot in the final four.
Russell takes an early lead but isn’t far enough ahead. Everyone is neck and neck. Ya know, if I were doing this puzzle I’d be telling Jeff to shut up. His play-by-play really must get on their nerves.
Once again, Brett wins immunity for the threepeat and one of the four Foa Foas is going home. Natalie feels her head is on the chopping block and Russell promises to keep Natalie. He thinks he can beat Natalie if it’s them in the final two (Is he serious? He’s a multimillionaire -- how is he going to explain that to the tribe?)
Russell tells the camera that it’s either Mick or Jaison to go. Russell tells Jaison that they’ll get rid of Mick but I have a feeling he’s about to tell Mick the same thing about Jaison. Ten seconds later, and I’m totally right. Wow. Russell looks more convincing when talking to Mick, so it may be Jaison going home. Russ and Natalie strategize over which of the two guys to vote out. It’s time for tribal…
Yikes. Shambo with makeup -- not a pretty sight. The rest of the jury tumbles out of her mullet and they all take their seats.
The tribe talks about all the layers of decision making but nobody seems to have the definitive solution. Brett makes a dumb statement about preferring to be on the Foa Foa side of the coin. “It doesn’t mean anything unless I win the next one,” he says. Jeff asks if he wants to switch spots but he declines. It’s time to vote…
We see: Mick voting for Jaison and Jaison voting for Mick. First vote is Mick and the rest go to Jaison. Jaison is going home. He doesn’t even look back at the tribe as he walks away. To the camera he says the he’s pissed off at Russell and that he’s rooting for Brett.
The final four get back to camp and high-five each other.
Day 38 dawns and Russell asks Brett if he could beat him if they were in the final three.
