Not all that glitters…

The time of the week came again when I put on a smooth jazz record, concoct an extra stiff manhattan, slip on a slightly revealing bedtime robe, and write about survivor.

But that is neither here nor there, what is important  is the newest episode and the changes that have occurred with the newest merge.

We are now presented with a new tribe entirely, and it is interesting to see the new alliances that have been made.  Thus we are revealed to Huyopa, Which brought with it tension, conflict, and gave me some personal questions as to what would occur.

Mostly i was curious how new alliances would be formed, and even more importantly if old alliances would be betrayed. I am beginning to think that everyone in the show is a conniving degenerate who is only out for their own benefit, which with a million dollar prize is partly true.

To relate this all to text i think the most important thing to consider is the exchange and management of power that will occur within the new groups. I feel that Baylor is becoming a nuisance to missy, and slightly taking the power that she has away. I feel that the group, especially old boy Dale, is becoming quite annoyed with Missy and Baylor.  I also see a change of power occurring between Josh and Jeremy, who seem to be some of the most capable players in the game thus far. I believe that they understand the threat that they pose to each other, and while it seems to go unspoken between the two of them, we expect that they want each other off the island.

The last part that this episode struck me with is time, or the lack thereof. While the show is not yet coming to an end, it is beginning to dwindle down and we see that the competition is becoming more heated. I am looking forward to see will happen next.

Goodnight
