THEME
Everyone's Hero

We start with Drake talking about the after-effects of their first Tribal Council. Next it's time to see how Rupert is doing over at Morgan. Morgan decides to move their shelter away from the incoming tides. Rupert, of course, helps out. Osten doesn't want to move the shelter. He's easily outvoted. Rupert just takes it all in. Drake starts talking about their fears that Rupert is giving away secrets. Boy, you people just don't know Rupert. Rupert goes fishing and sort of teaches Ryan how to use the spear. Rupert catches some nice fish for lunch. During the Reward Challenge, we see that: 1) Rupert makes a difference 2) Drake can't work together paddling a canoe and 3) Jon is still a friggin' idiot and must be wiped off the face of the earth. Drake's canoe goes everywhere and actually goes off the course. It's not a contest - Morgan wins the reward. Rupert is given the option to partake in the reward with Morgan and go back to Drake later or to go back to Drake now - and he choses to go home with Drake. He is welcomed back and tells them how bad it is back at Morgan. Andrew comes over from Morgan to plunder Drake's camp for the first time (he brings two coconuts as gifts). Rupert quietly goes up to Andrew and says "You can take whatever the #$&* you want, but I'm going to show you what I want you to take." Rupert makes a great offer - knowing that Morgan only has about two more bowls of rice left for food, Rupert pours some rice into a bag for Andrew. Big kudos for Rupert. Man, this guy knows how to be a pirate and knows how to play the game. Rupert finds a snake floating in the water that's injured - and takes it as a pet and names it "Balboa". (Next week's episode is titled "Me and My Snake".) The Immunity Challenge is this season's gross food challenge - blending up multiple seafood items and drinking them. Everybody does well and it comes down to a tie breaker and Sandra looses to Darrah. Three straight wins for Morgan. At Tribal Council, Drake votes out Michelle Tesauro, the 22-year-old student from Pittstown, NJ by a 6-1 vote.
