Dingdong, the troll is, well, hanging on for dear life. I predict that other than possibly getting himself back in the game eventually Russell will not find anything remotely resembling genuine redemption on Redemption Island, his sort never learn. The Zap6 are taking top honors this week for finally doing what should have been done long ago, voting Russell out!

1. Sarita (9-12). Still the quiet one, until they got to Tribal that is. Loved loved loved her at Tribal, you go girl!

2. Mike (5-2). Now that Russell is out of Zapatera maybe he can concentrate on the game, or at least find something else to talk about.

3. Ralph (8-1). Keeping the HII a secret from everyone else isn't dumb, it is what I would do probably, but things would have been simpler had he shared the fact he had it with some others. Still, he knew he was the target of the Russell faction and stood his ground, kept it in his pocket, so at the moment he's playing the smartest game out there.

4. Julie (18-15). Way to sucker punch Russell! If that's what you've got to do, that's what you've got to do. Russ and Stephanie didn't waste any effort trying to turn anyone else after they thought they had Julie, smart smart play on Julie's part.

5. David (2-9)

6. Steve (17-14). Lookit, they are smart guys, and I understand deception is part of the game, but lying at Tribal about tanking the challenge was kind of irritating, it was obvious they were lying and it served no purpose.

7. Natalie (6-3). Quiet episode.

8. Phillip (7-5). Nothing much from him this time, but come on Mr. Special Agent, fake sleeping is one of the oldest tricks in the handbook.

9. Rob (1-6). Andrea wasn't really buying it, she knows Rob is the ringleader, but otherwise he did pretty well this time.

10. Andrea (15-10). Maybe a bit too emotional, it is a game, or maybe playing the emotional card, hard to tell.

11. Ashley (12-13)

12. Kristina (16-11). Pretty much vanished this episode but was probably looking around for the HII instead of the clue which Rob discovered wasn't much help.

13. Krista (10-18). Still getting an invisible edit but under the circumstances her best move was to duck and cover.

14. Grant (13-8)

15. Stephanie (4-4). Just dug herself into a deep deep hole from which it may be impossible to recover.

RI

16. Matt (11-16). Here by default.

17. Russell (14-17). Nyanyanyanyanyaaanyaaaaaa!

Good-bye.

18. Francesca (2-7). Too bad.
