Cut Throat - Recap

With Keith voted to Redemption Island after the tribes merged, Ozzy, Whitney, Dawn, Cochran, Jim, Coach, Edna, Sophie, Albert, Rick, and Brandon are still in it for the $1 Million. On Night 21 at the Te Tuna tribe, Ozzy talks to Cochran alone and asks what is going on. Brandon comes up to them and wants to make sure that no one is aggressive. The other tribe mates of Cochran’s old tribe practically disown him and call him a coward. Whitney says that he disgusts her. Cochran walks over to his new section on the Te Tuna tribe. They welcome him and tell him not to worry about the others and their name calling.

Day 22

Coach is happy that the old Upolu tribe members stood strong with one another and says that he is going to have to be humble to be able to go all the way in the competition. Coach asks Cochran who he would like to see go home. He says that on a strategy side, it would be Ozzy, but on a personal level it is going to have to go be with Jim. They agree that if Jim doesn’t win the immunity, he is gone next.

Immunity Challenge time and Jeff says that the tribe members are going to have to toss their coconuts into a ring and the first four through move onto the next round. Dawn, Whitney, Jim and Sophie move on to the next round. During the second round, they have to cut into a coconut, put the juice in their months and then spit it in another container. It is close, but when Sophie pukes up her coconut juice, it is Jim who wins the immunity for himself.

The tribe members get back to camp and Brandon asks if Cochran is set to vote Ozzy through. He says that he isn’t really too happy about it, but it has to be done. Ozzy goes up to Coach and tells him that he doesn’t want to have to go to Redemption Island. Coach tells him that he knows that he is going to be back in the game no matter what. Jim and Whitney talk and she tells Jim that she told Cochran that he disgusted her. Jim says that he has a plan. Ozzy comes over and says that he will give Ozzy the immunity necklace and make a speech to the old Upolu tribe and try to get them to turn on Cochran. Ozzy says that it is a nice plan.

Tribal council time and Jeff asks how it was for Cochran after the last Tribal Council. He tells him about how he was mistreated and that he decided to play Survivor the way it was meant to be played and no by drawing rocks to see who goes home. That is not how it is played. Ozzy tells Cochran that he never tried to vote him off and Cochran says that he has been trying to get him off since Day 1. Jeff asks if Jim is going to give his Immunity to anyone and he says that he is going to stick with it. The votes are tallied and it is Ozzy with 5 votes and Cochran with 2 votes. Ozzy is voted off to Redemption Island, but Ozzy tells them all that he will be back.

Day 23

On Redemption Island, Ozzy catches a huge fish and cooks it up for Keith and himself. For the Te Tuna tribe, it is Immunity Challenge time again. This time they are going to have to balance. Last person standing will win the immunity. However, there is a twist. Jeff says that whoever feels like they are going to be able to be safe can sit and eat. Of course, all of the old Upolu tribe sit down and enjoy the food. Dawn, Whitney and Jim are the only ones who are going to try for the Immunity. As the balancing gets harder and harder it is Whitney who eventually wins the Immunity.

They get back to camp Cochran dresses up in Coaches shirt and Rick’s cowboy hat. Jim says that he has a plan. He talks to Sophie and Albert and tells them that by voting for Edna, they are going to be able to make a move. Albert says that he doesn’t have to deal with that and says that he thinks that Dawn is a threat more then Jim. Dawn says that she is a good person to try to get into the old Upolu tribe. Albert meets with Sophie and tells her that people are going to gravitate to Dawn. However, Sophie says that they need to get rid of Jim. Coach kind of sees Albert’s thinking and saying that people are more likely to go to Dawn in this.

Tribal Council time and they say that it is going to be an easy decision. Sophie says that Dawn and Jim are both threats, but it is Jim all the time. Albert says that Dawn could be the bigger threat. Dawn says that it was hard for her to see them eat and says that she wouldn't have eaten. Brandon interrupts and says that Dawn isn’t making sense. Whitney says that she feels that she has been vilified. Brandon says that the old Upolu tribe was the outcasts, but now that they are winning, suddenly they are the villains. The votes are tallied Edna with 3 votes and Jim with 5 votes. Jim is the one out to Redemption Island.
