One World Episode 13: Warrior Poet

Tarzan has a gameplan. Finally! Up until now he'd just been going any way the wind blows. He tells Kim he thinks he can get the jury to vote for her, so they need to take out Chelsea and Sabrina next. Alicia agrees, but then again, Tarzan has also told her that he can sway the jury for her. Be careful Tarzan, wouldn't want to get voted out just as you start playing.

No reward for you: Chelsea wants
to kick Christina's sweet ass
Chelsea tries to turn Christina against Alicia and Tarzan by pointing out the obviousness of their alliance, and offers to take her on a reward. However, when Chelsea goes out for a swim, Christina tells everyone else what she said. Kim's first thought is "did Chelsea blow my cover?" Playing both sides can be a good position, but it's not a secure one, when all it takes is one conversation to leave you exposed. Kim tells Chelsea what Christina did and Chelsea gets pissed.

The reward challenge involves unscrewing three discs and using them as a decoder to find the combination for the lever at the end. Sabrina takes an early lead on the first two rounds, with Kim behind her. On the decoder wheel, some different people start getting their heads in front, with Chelsea first to the lever and Alicia right behind. Both girls take a few tries to get it, but in the end, the reward goes to...Chelsea!

Chelsea picks Sabrina because it's the fair thing to do. And then who else? Kim, of course. The girl who gets picked for everything. The three of them go on a boat and Chelsea gets cleaned up real good. The ladies then pledge to go to the final three together.

The three back at camp are also pledging to go to the final three. Tarzan reminds the girls that he's going to be an easier opponent than Kim or Chelsea, and they've gotta go. Christina even reiterates this in front of his face, which is not only pretty dumb, but she's hardly one to talk. A final three between these people would be hilarious, but also depressing, because one of them would have to win.

Don't wanna be Tarzaned
Tarzan continues his unsanitary behaviour, once again proving himself the tribemate from Hell. Kim tries to turn Alicia against Tarzan, by convincing her that some of the men on the jury would rather die than see a woman win. She also exposes some of the double-dealing he's been doing. And Alicia buys it all. Just when you thought she couldn't look any stupider, she then calls herself "Queen of the social game". Delusional as usual.

Not the first time Alicia has had a bone in her mouth
Jeff calls them all in for the immunity challenge, which is constructing a fish skeleton with one hand behind your back. Kim hooks it first, Alicia's behind her, Tarzan seems to be doing surprisingly well too...I guess this challenge is more up the surgeon's alley. Kim blows her lead which opens the door for Alicia. Starting to drop a few, Kim rushes to finish, but Alicia beats her to the punch and wins immunity.

Alicia is very happy with her win. Chelsea knows she's on the chopping block but Kim thinks she can save her. She asks Kim to use her idol on her but Kim basically tells her she's not worth it. The thing that'll piss Chelsea off the most is being beaten by Christina, but Sabrina is hopeful Chelsea can see another day...she knows how good Kim is. Another person who knows how good Kim is is Tarzan, who seems well aware he might be a target tonight also. He's trying hard to make himself seem as appealing an opponent as possible - putting Kat's underwear on his head, for one. Alicia is going into tribal torn on what to do - stick with her alliance, or cut the wildcard loose?

Mike gives an indicator of Tarzan's winning chances
At tribal council, Tarzan reiterates that he can't win. Sabrina meanwhile says she can win - is that really a wise thing to remind people? Christina reveals she was annoyed Chelsea broke her word about taking her on a reward but Chelsea says she did because Christina also broke her word. They go to vote, and Tarzan gets the chop. He stands up and thanks the women for letting them make it as far as he did, and Mike flips him off from the jury. Tarzan's final words are great, he gives us a little poem and a Tarzan yell.

So there we have it...five girls left and nowhere to hide. Next episode we'll know who our winner is.

STAR OF THE WEEK: ALICIA ROSA
I'm starting to appreciate Alicia a little more. She was kind of a fun presence in this episode. Maybe I'm just softening because I know she has no chance of winning anymore. But she must have been doing something right to have control of three votes as late as final six.
