Survivor: Caramoan 1x6 "Operation Thunder Dome"

Breaking news!  The Favorites did not appreciate Brandon's meltdown!

Tribe swapping!  I love the paint egg thing, which was awesome when Ozzy did it in South Pacific and wore the resulting spot on his shirt like a badge of honor the rest of the season...

It's great that the three Fans I don't particularly care to see stick around, Reynold, Sherri and Eddie, are marooned on the Gota...Corinne, meanwhile, doesn't mind joining Bikal, though at this point she doesn't seem to be considering anything but remaining loyal to the old tribe.

Immunity challenge suggests that the Fans don't appreciate having the Specialist around.  I always value Phillip!  And after the loss he sounded hopefully intelligent and calm enough for any viewer to appreciate him.

Phillip attempts induct Matt and Michael into his alliance.  Matt may not be so willing, yet he's game to vote out Julia.  Where are Dawn and Cochran on this?  Cochran is game for it.

Matt is sacrificed mostly out of Corinne's paranoia about a hidden immunity idol.  This episode I finally decided that he could easily have been Survivor's own answer to all the cable reality stars from the dozens of extreme situation show.  Oh well!

For the record, the new alignments are:

Gota (formerly identified as the Favorites):
Malcolm
Andrea
Brenda
Erik
Reynold
Sherri
Eddie

Bikal (formerly identified as the Fans):
Matt (well, until the end of the episode)
Michael
Julia
Phillip
Corinne
Dawn
Cochran

Dawn and Cochran always go together as a unit!

Next time we revisit another moment from Survivor: Palau (this time one of its challenges) and Malcolm appears ready to assert himself!
