Koror, Day 7.

Tom says they spotted some sea snakes. Tom says it looked like dinner.

Gregg says the sea snakes are highly venomous.

Katie says Ian was so cute chopping the snake’s head off.

Ian says working with dolphins makes him feel bad about killing animals.

Gregg says Ian and Tom found more snakes and caught them.

Tom says it may have been a bit foolhardy but it was cool to meet a couple more knuckleheads in Ian and Gregg.

Bobby Jon and Angie watch Jeff chopping coconuts. It makes Angie’s choice more difficult.

Kim says she knows everyone’s whispering about her. She feels vulnerable.

Tribal Council.

JP says they have to be tired of seeing him.

Ibrehim says it’s frustrating, but if they had Jeff they would have won.

Bobby Jon says the difference was Tom. He single-handedly beat them.

Ibrehim disagrees.

Steph says that Jeff told them to vote him off.

Jeff says he’s a team player, and his ankle means he needs to go. If his ankle hasn’t been hurt, it would have helped them win.

Ibrehim says people work hard but some people don’t put in as much effort, and effort can play a part in his vote.

Kim says it’s hard being on a team of workaholics. She knows that if Jeff wasn’t hurt she’d be going, because the tribe has decided to keep the strongest.

James says no one knows what will happen until they vote.

Time to vote. James votes first and votes for Kim because she’s lazy. Jeff. Ibrehim. Kim votes for Jeff and says she values his friendship. Angie. Bobby Jon votes for Kim and says he won’t play Jeff’s game.

JP brings the votes. First vote, Jeff. Jeff. James. Kim. Kim. Jeff. Third person voted off Survivor: Jeff. Jeff gets his flame snuffed and hobbles out of the game.

JP says they’ve had a tough 8 days and need to turn that night’s vote into something positive.
