Well, here are the results:The Fans are enjoying their barbeque. Sherri reveals that the reason why she was asked to sit out the Reward Challenge was because they had practiced shooting baskets (with Eddie and Reynold being the ones to catch them), and Laura was slightly better than Sherri. Also, they thought Sherri would be more useful in the Immunity Challenge.
Reynold is relieved that they sat out the right person for Reward. Now hopefully with Laura sitting out the Immunity Challenge, things can continue to improve for them.
Hope is also hoping that Gota can win the Immunity Challenge. Otherwise, she'll be the one going home. Meanwhile, Julia and Laura are talking about how they can flush out Reynold's Hidden Immunity Idol if by chance they have to go to Tribal Council.
Back at Bikal, it's all doom and gloom. Erik the Idiot is still stewing over Jeff Probst's efforts to stir the pot by commenting on the decision to send out Francesca. Brenda is trying to calm him down because she needs him and Corinne as goats.
Unfortunately, whenever Brenda tries to calm him down, Erik the Idiot begins yelling at her and this leads to lots of screaming matches. After Brenda walks out of another screaming match, she tells Corinne that she originally picked Erik and Francesca because she thought they'd be great goats for her. And for a time it worked, but now she's lost one goat and is about to lose another because neither one can keep their mouths shut!
Corinne is sympathetic but knows that this means Brenda chose her because Brenda thinks she's a good goat. Fortunately, Corinne doesn't comment on it. Instead, she says that Brenda might need Cochran and Dawn now and reminds Brenda that Cochran could still be a good shield.
Brenda explains that the reason she didn't want to turn to Cochran was because she was sure he'd turn on her sooner or later. But now she might have to use him or hope for a tribal switch. At this point, she's hoping for a tribal switch as she wants to use Cochran only as a very last resort.
Meanwhile, Dawn is crying because Erik the Idiot was going off on another rant against Probst -- in front of Dawn! She wants to quit -- again. Cochran reassures her that the whole tribe is sick of Erik and if they lose the next Immunity Challenge, they'll be all too happy to get rid of him. This cheers up Dawn.
During all this, it had been raining at Bikal. Now we switch to Gota, where the rain has come to their camp. The Fans are trying to find a way to shelter their fire so that it won't go out, but they seem to be having a hard time finding a good place of shelter because the fire keeps going out.
Matt says that he wishes their location was situated in such a way that they could keep the fire going by sheltering it. As it is, they're all huddled in their shelter and feel cold and miserable. Michael notes that at least they had a good barbeque, so things aren't too bad for them.
Back at Bikal, Treemail arrives. The challenge will be about "boxing", but nobody quite knows what that means. As Erik the Idiot starts a fire under the lip of the shelter, the others begin talking about what to do.
Malcolm is all for throwing the challenge in order to get rid of a loose cannon, but the others are much less sure. They don't want to keep Erik the Idiot around for long as he's a threat to their sanity and possibly a threat to Probst as well, but they don't want to go two down to the Fans.
Unfortunately, while they're still discussing thing, Erik the Idiot happens to overhear them -- and he is upset. He points out that they can't afford to lose another Favorite! Brenda tells him that she is not planning on throwing the challenge but if they happen to lose, he will be going out.
Then Malcolm adds fuel to the fire by saying that he's going to throw the challenge so that Erik the Idiot can go home! Naturally, Erik flips out and heads into the shelter to dump all the supplies! Corinne and Dawn rush in, grab Erik and pull him away from the supplies while Andrea and Brenda do what they can to save the supplies. Fortunately, Corinne and Dawn were able to get to Erik in time to prevent hm from getting the rice wet, but the rice is rather dirty. Cochran says that the dirt will boil away when they cook it. Brenda orders Malcolm not to throw the challenge.
Now it's time for the Immunity Challenge and there are purple and orange crates on the grass, along with two elevated platforms with steps. Both tribes drip their way in.
Jeff Probst asks Reynold how things are going with the Fans. He says that while they had a great barbeque, they're tired and cold. But they're not giving up. Then Probst asks Dawn about life at camp. She says that some people make her life miserable.
This naturally leads to Probst asking Erik the Idiot how he's doing. And Erik flips, accusing Probst of asking leading questions to get reactions out of people. Brenda tries to warn Erik that he doesn't have to play right into Probst's hands if he really is trying to get reactions out of people, but Erik is too mad to listen.
Then Erik the Idiot marches right up to Probst and gets right into the guy's face. Realizing that Erik is on the verge of punching Probst out, Brenda rushes up to stop him. She grabs his arm and tries to pull him away from Probst, but Erik shoves her down onto the sand and then actually makes a fist and pulls his arm back in order to throw a punch at Probst!
Fortunately, Malcolm is able to grab Erik the Idiot's arm before Erik can hit Probst. But the damage has been done. The Favorites are now ready to forfeit Immunity and vote Erik the Idiot out right now! The Fans get to keep Immunity and Probst asks for vocal votes. Erik votes for Brenda and the others vote for him!
The Fans return to Gota, shaking their heads over this turn of events while Malcolm holds Erik the Idiot until the Quit Boat comes. After Erik is taken away (and given some strong sedatives), the Favorites return to Bikal, openly relieved to have gotten rid of Erik. In fact, Dawn says that she's no longer willing to quit!
****************************************************************************************
Okay, now it's tme for a Tribal Switch! I want you to decide who is on Bikal and who is on Gota. There will be no challenge for now. I'll take votes until tomorrow, so please vote! And hopefully, the tribes won't be so mismatched this time around.
