Big Orange Survivor Magnolia, Week 9

Last week, the big merge finally happened, forming the new tribe of Alinta. Rory tried to get Ami voted off the island only to see the women use their superiority in numbers and their alliance to vote him off the island. (Kind of smart move, really since he’s a loose cannon and there ain’t no telling how he’d vote on a jury). Sarge won immunity last week and tried to hook up with Julie and Twilia. (Oh, that wacky Sarge!)

First up, a look at our new tribe (and our jury)….



The video previews for this week don’t tell us that much, except the guys are outnumbered (though apparently they can’t count since they say the men are outnumbered 5-3 and looking at our picture above, it’s actually 6-3) and could be “an endangered species.” (Thanks CBS for making my job so much easier!) But, here’s what the CBS web site has to say about this week’s episode:

Fetching treemail, one Survivor is surprised to get more than just mail, but the meaning of the surprise remains a mystery.

One group of Survivors hatch a devilish plan to screw over their tribemates.

Hatred drives two Survivors to serious lobbying to get each other voted out.

One Survivor’s guilt over aligning with a faction is exacerbated by a tribemate’s words.
