This past season of Survivor: Micronesia saw a host of firsts. In addition to the endless number of blindsides, the Fans vs. Favorites saga saw three people go home for reasons unrelated to Tribal Council. The 39 days of competition also gave us our only female-empowered finale ever.
There were so many questions lingering around the last set of Tribal Councils. Would Natalie be applauded for sticking around so long? Would Cirie be recognized for all the strategic moves she actually headlined? Would Parvati have to pay for what she did to Ozzy? Would Amanda really end up being the threat everyone believed her to be? Would everyone still be all kissy and huggy now that they had to take each other down? Read on!
After labeling Erik the “dumbest Survivor ever”, the ladies had a bit of time to celebrate and appreciate each other. Unfortunately, the next elimination was always in the back of their minds. Thanks to the some one-on-one time with Parvati (the charity organizer complimented Natalie on her powers of persuasion), the personal trainer was felt hopeful about her possible new bond. Meanwhile, Cirie - who was committing to stick with her original alliance - had it planned that she would send Natalie home next.
At their next Immunity Challenge, the ladies were perched on top a 20’ pole in the water. The women first had to lower buckets and gather as much water as they could. The goal was to pour as much as possible down a small chute. The rising level in this chute would eventually raise a key. They then had to swim ashore with the key and unlock a chest full of ladder rungs. Once they were placed in their proper slots, the rungs would then lead the survivors to a platform. The first person to release their flag would win.
