  • Tale of the Torch: Dec. 14

     

    Return to the Survivor showpage every Wednesday to find out who John Powell thinks will be taking that Walk of Shame and the status of all the players in the game. 

     

    Powell's Pick Ratio: 11 for 13 


    Episode 14: 'Then there were five': "Tensions escalate at camp when the final five original Upolu members are forced to turn on each other. Meanwhile, on Redemption Island, Ozzy and Edna compete to stay in the game."
     

    Boot Pick: Episode 14

     

     
     

    Brandon Hantz

    Brandon’s erratic behaviour and gameplay come back to haunt him. At this phase of the game, it is all about who you can trust and nobody has faith in Brandon, not even his long-time alliance partner Coach. Ozzy is almost assuredly going to beat Edna (No matter what the promos show). Coach may lose Edna but could gain challenge beast Ozzy to face off against Rick, Albert and Sophie to clear that path to the finals.
     

     
     

     

    Surviving Tribemates

     

     

    "Coach" Ben Wade

    In a short period of time, has become the leader of his tribe but how long before they turn on him? Makes it well past the merger?

     
     
     

    Sophie Clarke

    Could be a dark horse. Too smart for her own good?

     
     
     

    Brandon Hantz

    Is viewed as the loose cannon on his tribe. He cannot seem to bite his tongue. His game is too emotional.

     
     
     

    Albert Destrade

    As a dating coach, you would think Albert would have some insight into how people operate. Becomes a regular resident of Redemption Island?

     
     
     

    Rick Nelson

    Although he is a survivalist, his gruff personality and loner mentality may make him an early target.

     
     

     

    Redemption Island

     

     

    Edna Ma

    An outsider from the start, her only alliance was with Coach.

     
     
     

    Ozzy Lusth

    Challenge wins made him a top threat.


     
     

     

    Jury Members

     

     

    John Cochrane

    Betrayed his own tribe. Outlived his usefulness with the Upolu Alliance.

     
     
     

    Whitney Duncan

    A Pangonging victim who made no in-roads with the core alliance.

     
     
     

    Dawn Meehan

    Didn't jump ship quick enough and was picked off.

     
     
     

    Jim Rice

    Didn't make many friends in the Upolu Alliance. 


     
     
     

    Keith Tollefson

    Too much of a challenge threat.

     
     

     

    Loser Lodge

     

     

    Christine Shields Markoski

    Ozzy ended Christine's run on Redemption Island.

     
     
     

    Mikayla Wingle

    An outside who never really bonded with the rest of the tribe.

     
     
     

    Elyse Umemoto

    Made herself a target by teaming with Ozzy.

     
     
     

    Stacy Powell

    Make an alliance with the wrong person, who then took her out of the game.

     
     
     

    Mark Caruso

    Didn't bond with the core alliance.

     
     
     

    Semhar Tadesse

    Being quirky doesn't get you far on Survivor. It makes you annoying.
