Blog 8, Ep. 9: Getting to Crunch Time

I feel like this week’s episode  did not really relate to group leadership. I could not really tell who was being in leader in this one because every tribe member was so worried about themselves and worried about getting voted off. Reed was furious about Josh getting voted off. Keith and Wes were just over the whole game in general. When they had a immunity challenge, the whole group split into two teams. Jeremy and Nataly’s team won, but they decided to trade spots with Jaclyn and Jon because they know they have not eaten. The prize for winning that challenge was going out on yacht and eat sandwiches and drink all day. Then Jeremy got sent to Exile Island after trading places with Jon and he was told to find the idol. Jeremy realized that Jon had found the idol when he was sent to Exile Island and that is when Jon realized too that Jeremy was looking for it and that he technically lied about it. So this whole time everyone is questioning everyone else because they don’t know who is being honest and who they should vote off this week. In my opinion, I still looked at Jeremy as a good example of a leader. He tried having everyone’s back and help people think more rational and I was confused why he was voted off. Other people were confused why he was voted off too, because once again he was one of the stronger team members.
