Many would say play it, and being voted out with one for whatever reason would look stupid.

It all worked out, but I think this was actually a perfect time to use his idol, from his perspective. If things went the way he assumed, he would be back in the exact same position after the vote. Once he knew Elizabeth was the target, he could use it to vote out who he chose, and then David’s have the numbers the next week.

But, it turns out the Goliath dude was dumb. He is #4 in a 4 man alliance. He is in trouble. Even after a merge, he will be dead to Goliath, and linked to an outnumbered and weak David tribe. But, man, he must have hated Natalia. She was a perfect cocky blindside, though.

Now, had the purple tribe tribe gone to TC, no one was going to be mad at anyone voting out Natalie. She was a problem that had to be solved, and was worse on a small tribe.

Really rooting for Christian and Gabby. Was so glad to see them win, and that Gabby played such a strong role in that win. She needed that.

Purple tribe can't lose. The orange tribe is cursed. Blame Malolo.

Re-watching the tribal again after knowing how it ended, I wonder what really went on in that conversation. What did he tell Elizabeth? And what did he tell Kara?

And that vote off reaction is one of the funnier ones in Survivor. Talk about being mad about being voted out. I'm still waiting for a complete blowup reaction. Probably has happened but we just didn't see (like in a past season of Big Brother, apparently someone refused to leave, so producers had to force/talk them out, but that was obviously edited out).

Speaking of funny moments, during the immunity:
Jeff: (purple tribe) is going nowhere, it's costing them time!
Natalie (immediately after hearing Jeff): What are you doing? It's costing us time!

About time they finally got Natalie out.

it's also interesting to see the Goliath's turn on each other again.

I liked Natalie's explanation for not giving up her jacket, it's impossible to know if Angelique (I think that's her name) had anything to do with her exit. I wouldn't have given it up either

Is that the first time they evacuated them? Any inside info on where they were taken?

They've done that before if I'm not mistaken, within the last couple seasons they had the same deal with a hurricane and had to get 'em out

It happened a few years prior on the millennial VS gen x season. That was first time it happened. I'm surprised they're sticking with Fiji. I think they were also in Fiji during the crazy med evacuation episode with Caleb and others.
