Erik Earns The Title 'Stupidest Contestant In Survivor History'
CBS Thursday 8/7c 5/8/08

Tonight Survivor Micronesia started with the fall-out of the last Tribal Council, when Amanda played the Hidden Immunity Idol and back-doored Alexis. Erik was stunned and quiet, Natalie was pissed. Cirie just laughed at all of it, and was glad that Amanda was still in the game.

Before the Reward Challenge, Natalie approached Erik with the plan to send her (Nat) to Exile Island if he wins, so she could find the Hidden Immunity Idol. Amanda gave Eric a similar plan with Parvati going to Exile so Natalie can't have it.

Eric won the Reward Challenge, a spa trip, and took Amanda (part of her deal) and sent Parv to Exile Island. Parvati did nothing to look for the Idol, feeling quite safe for some reason in her alliance with Amanda and Cirie.

Natalie boiled at the camp, stuck with Cirie chirping in her ear. Cirie is hilarious.

Erik made a possibly fatal mistake by telling all of the women different plans, then found out the hard way that women tell each other everything.

The Immunity Challenge was a physical puzzle game, matching coordinates to dig for the pieces. Cirie was in it for a minute, then Erik took control. Erik wins Individual Immunity and is guaranteed a spot in the final 4.

Now the scrambling starts for the women, Natalie will most likely be the one to go at this point. Though it will be a dramatic pause between Amanda and Natalie. This Tribal Council has been billed as the most dramatic ever, will Cirie somehow get back-doored this week?

Cirie comes up with a huge idea of Natalie asking Erik to give up his Immunity necklace to regain her trust. If he votes for Amanda tonight with Cirie and Natalie, he redeems himself to the jury. He can't be that stupid, but he is already on the fence. Erik is going to give Natalie the Immunity necklace, but he changed it to voting out Parv. The ladies have Erik on the hook, now they are reeling him in.

The ladies raked poor Erik over the coals completely, and he apologized profusely for his game play. This is hysterical, he has done nothing wrong. Now he tells the jury he need some redemption prior to being a finalist.

Cirie tells Jeff Probst that if you have been discredited you must redeem yourself with actions, not words.

This is so funny, I can't type. Erik just gave the Immunity necklace to Natalie amidst peels of giggles from the jury members and Amanda. Natalie kept a straight face.

The ladies had no mercy with their comments at the voting block.

As Jeff Probst read the votes: Erik, Parv, Erik (now he looks surprised!), the 13th person voted off Survivor Micronesia is Erik.

James piped up from the jury, now rolling with laughter, "I'm no longer the stupidest player in Survivor history!"
