Episode Eleven: Keep It Down
Day
Thirty-One:
A
Long, Long Time
Mick
in a confessional
Babette
slowly rose from her sleep at the Air Tegrin camp. The other
five members of her tribe were all awake and sitting around the
campfire eating breakfast. They greeted her with a hearty good
morning as she reached into her bag and pulled out a small piece
of paper. On this paper she had tally marks representing the
number of days that they have spent in Indonesia. Babette took
her pencil and made another tally mark on that page. She counted
them all and realized that this was their thirty-first day in
this game. You guys, weve only eight more days
left! Babette screamed to her tribe members. They smiled
at her as they ate. In a confessional later that day, Babette
commented Id never thought that Id make it as
far as I did in this game. The whole game has been Hell and very
stressing on me. Ever since Cecely was voted out, I thought for
sure that my days were numbered but now here I am in the Final
Six. Its been a long, long time in this game and its
absolutely amazing to still be in this thing like this. I also
have some hopes of getting Matahari to the Finals. I know Bulan
is completely split up, and right now we have a three on three
advantage. If we boot out one more Bulan, Matahari can take our
advantage again, and one of us can win!
Mick
also expressed his feelings in the game. I am the oldest
one left out here, and was one of the oldest ones in the game,
and I feel great to have outwitted, outlasted and ouplayed a
bunch of kids and was able to make it this far. Ever since the
first day of the game I was playing my ass off to stay in this
thing. Once Karens name was read off for the first time, I
knew that it was going to be a long and hard journey. I knew I
was playing the game great and I think I switched from Bulan to
Matahari at the perfect moment. All Emily and I need to do is
get Kyle on our side and then after we get rid of Cole we can
take this to the Final Three, and Im pretty sure once I
get there Ill have the game in my back pocket.
Though
Mick and Babette were pretty serious and sure that they would
win the game they did not know of the scheme Cole had and was
planning behind all of their backs. He said to the cameras: It
will take a lot to have Cole stop playing the game, I may be
down, but I will never, ever be out. Right now, it looks like
Olivia, Kyle, Babette, Emily and Mick are all going to vote
against me. But I have the perfect story to tell Kyle, Babette
and Olivia and it may work to get them on my side. Let me just
warn those out there watching that the next Tribal Council will
definitely be an interesting one!
A
Word
Cole
in a confessional
Hey
Kyle, can I have a word with you? Cole asked Kyle. Kyle
turned to face Cole and they both took a seat along the beach.
Kyle, I dont know how to tell you this. I know you
dont trust me and were practically enemies, but I
really have something to tell you. I really think youre
trusting the wrong person.
What
do you mean? Kyle asked.
Emily,
youre trusting Emily and I have to tell you that shes
not the sweet girl next door that you perceive her to be,
Cole told him. Kyle gave him a somewhat skeptical look. All
right, well you see Kyle, you know shes the one that voted
against Madison right?
Yeah,
I know she was the one who did that. Mick did too, Kyle
said.
Well
lets focus on Emily right now. She was supposed to vote
with our alliance, but instead she voted out Madison. Well the
other day she comes up to me and tells me that she did that just
so Mick would feel safe and think he had a spot in the Final
Four. Of course Asher and I were very angry at her and we didnt
believe her, we thought she was just trying to save her ass, ya
know? Well anyway, she told me that what she wanted to do was
make Matahari believe that she was on your side but really vote
you out.
Me?
Kyle asked.
Yeah,
and then once you were gone pick off Olivia and Babette. At
first I was going to go with this, but then I figured that we
couldnt trust that. To tell you the truth, Ive grown
in this game. In the beginning I was all about lying and deceit,
but now I care about other peoples feelings. Im
wasnt going to let her make me look like the bad guy so in
the end it would be her in the Final Two and people would think
that she played the game innocently and would vote for her to
win. I told Asher this and he said hed talk to you guys
and get you all to vote for Emily with us.
He
never told us that, Kyle said.
Thats
what makes this all so frustrating. I didnt know he didnt
tell you that until right before Tribal Council when he said he
couldnt get up the nerve to. I was pissed at him, because
I knew that completely screwed over our plan and then when I was
talking to him Emily overheard us and found out we were trying
to get her out. And thats where we left off.
Wow!
Kyle explained.
Cole
continued, You may not believe me, and I dont blame
you, but Im telling you now that youre trusting the
wrong person and I think we need to get her out.
Kyle
had a confessional: I dont know whether to believe
him or not. I mean, the story sounds great and he seems sturdy
and true about voting for Emily, but I dont know which
strategy would be better. Ill have to ask Babette and
Olivia about them both.
Coles
confessional: That fruit believed me! I knew that story
would get him to believe me, and I am so fucking happy that he
did. It makes me laugh though some of the crap I told him.
Especially about how Ive grown in this game. Ha! If
anything grew in this game its been my large ego and
cockiness.
