OMG!!  what a dummy!  WHy would you get this far and work so hard at the challenge and give it up.  He could have probably won the next couple of ICS.   I love James's reaction.  He will probably get in trouble for talking as they are not suppose to talk.  They really played him at TC with Jeff's help.

I really felt bad for Erik, its a great episode but Im not liking it. Yes he may have made a dumb move but the girls were like super evil and Cirie said about the move being "Jedi". Sorry Cirie, its nothing like a "Jedi" move because Jedi dont lie and dont do evil things. :lala :sucks

Cirie and Natalie will pay for voting Erik out in the long run I fear or look forward to actually.  They were too full of themselves to see the big picture and realize they were in the same boat as Erik only slighly ahead of him on the chopping block.   Natalie knew she was next to go if she didn't manipulate Erik into doing something stupid.  What she didn't think about was it just saved her for probably just 1 more TC and then she'd be gone followed by Cirie because unless they are playing each other Amanda/Parvati have no plans to betray each other.  If Natalie (and Cirie) had been thinking smart  they would have done better math.  At F5 Amanda/Parvati are a tight duo.  Cirie/Natalie/Erik are just obstacles in their way to the million.  C/N/E have no "true" ties to anyone but themselves now.  C/N are still into "girl power" mode but should have been thinking ahead to divide and conquer.  They could have taken out either A or P and had a F4 that were basically 4 individuals with no "alliances".  They did risk the chance of Erik going on an immunity run and winning his way to the finals but in the end they wouldn't be in as bad a position as they are now.  If Erik had won the F4 IC they would have had A/P (whichever was remaining) to vote out and been in the F3.  I guess in Cirie's defense she knew she had F3 either way.

Erik was an idiot!  You never allow yourself to be guilted into giving up Immunity!  Sure, Jenna gave Heidi Immunity in Survivor Amazon, but at that point she had every reason to believe that Rob would maneuver things in such a way that she wouldn't go -- Christy would instead.  Erik didn't have that luxury, and he paid the price.
