Te Tuna, day 38 If we get the march of the fallen survivors, I am not going to spoil because it's the most annoying part of the whole game. Ozzy climbing trees to get coconuts: "Plan A, I win; Plan B, I win." Sophie is irritated that Ozzy is here, probably because he called her out. Now Coach is trying to finagle his way out of his deal with Ozzy. I specifically told you not to tell the deal we made, Coach says, as a Christian man, and you revealing the secret is "very disturbing." Ozzy tells his tale of being screwed over repeatedly in the game and he didn't know whether he could trust Coach. Opening his heart this way made Coach feel the enormous love in Ozzy's heart. And tonight, Ozzy would like to see Sophie and Albert make a fire to determine who goes home. So the rocks are gone and we have a fire challenge now? This is day 38, baby, Ozzy tells us, and it's the last challenge I'll ever play in Survivor. IC: Ozzy says he's been waiting 38 days for this: for the last time, immunity is up for grabs. A huge flower-shaped maze where they have to collect stuff from five stations. Sophie and Albert on same first leg. Ozzy has his first bad. Coach can't walk on ropes very ell. Ozzy heads on to the swing. Albert and Sophie have their first bags. So does Coach. Ozzy and Albert have their second bags. Ozzy on to third bag, Coach has two. Ozzy is a BEAST, but Albert is doing really really well too. Albert and Sophie both on same leg....Albert falls off and Ozzy can extend his lead. Albert has third. Ozzy has fifth; Sophie coming back with her 4th bag; Coach coming with 4th... Ozzy starts to try to solve the puzzle. Coach also has his fifth bag. Sophie now back. This is actually a very exciting challenge. Albert is back and exhausted. They are trying to get this going...Sophie has her first piece in and Ozzy's huge lead is gone. Sophie is having a hard time with the 4th piece. Ozzy has two pieces in, Coach none, Albert none. Sophie one piece left. Ozzy still fighting. Sophie wins final immunity. Ozzy drops the F bomb. Ozzy says "so close, so far away...Yet again." Sophie has won individual immunity three times now and will have the opportunity to plead her case to the jury. And tonight, she will get to vote off another member. Probst can't wait to see it.

Sophie wins immunity! Tough break for Ozzy. Good try and great comeback from being the 1st eliminated but you fell just a bit short. Now we'll see if Coach's 'word as a Christian man' to not vote out Ozzy is worth anything. I seriously doubt it.

Te Tuna Ozzy says he tried it so many times, but he just couldn't get it. Sophie is surprised how easy the puzzle was once you had the first piece in. Ozzy is going to try to scheme. "Coach said he'd take me to the final, but...." looks to his side, and the other three are celebrating, much to Ozzy's disgust. Sophie thinks that beating Ozzy is something she can hang her hat on. Albert calls Ozzy the tangible villain. Sophie thinks Coach might be playing a game she's not aware of. Ozzy approaches Coach and wants to have the opportunity to make a fire with Albert. Coach says I'm battling against my word. But you gave ME your word, too, Coach, and now you're going to betray it. Coach says in confessional that he wants to take the strongest to the end, and Ozzy is a warrior--an arrogant one, albeit, but a warrior. And Ozzy keeps haunting Coach with the "as a Christian man" quotation, as Coach tries to figure out how to lie his way out of it. Boy. Two hours of typing is a LOT.

Coach should be thinking that if Ozzie can make such a good argument for voting for him to Coach how great will he be in his argument with the jury. The only chance Coach has with the jury is to vote Ozzie out.

Boo Sophie... I completely dislike her after the way she spoke to Albert at the previous challenge.

Not sure if Coach has any real chance to win this game no matter who he votes out tonight. Giving his 'word' to Ozzy was problematic. If he goes back on his word there can be a backlash with a couple of jury votes. Keep his word and Ozzy wins. Should have kept his mouth shut, voted out Ozzy and he should have won easily.

Coach confirms that he's a complete phony about 'word' and 'honor'. Hope Sophie wins now!

TC, Night 38 Rick does NOT look happy to be sitting on the jury. Sophie says it feels "amazing, absolutely amazing" to the the immunity necklace. Ozzy says he knew he had to win tonight or "I was in trouble." "It's going to nag at me for the rest of my life." Coach says he knows how it feels, especially for a competitor like Ozzy and it's heartbreaking. Ozzy says it's no secret that he and Coach talked and "if Coach is a man of his word," he will keep to the word. And that's the possibility for Ozzy to compete against Albert in a fire-making challenge to see who gets to the finals. Coach is twisting himself in pretzels trying to justify voting Ozzy out. ALbert thinks he would do well in a fire-making challenge, but there's always a possibility Coach could break his word to the beautiful Albie. Albert votes and says "Pride comes before the fall, my man and I hope you learned a lesson in humility." Sophie votes Ozzy and says he was taken down by the new dragon-slayer (a name Coach gave her). Votes: Ozzy Albert Ozzy Ozzy "Sayonara, Survivor. Man, I had a good ride." The jury claps for Ozzy, who thanks them for the chance and Albert thanks God. Ozzy walks off, yelling "yee-haw."

Te Tuna, Night 38 Coach cannot believe it. An Ozzy-free camp. He says getting rid of Ozzy was a no-brainer and, as Mark Twain or Shakespeare or one of those guys said....and here, I have to stop transcribing because to conflate Twain and Shakespeare "or one of those guys" is just too gross to me. They get food--more food than Sophie has had this whole time. They're pigging out, making pancakes, etc. Coach says Albert played a "squirrelly" game and tried to curry favor with the jury too early; Sophie says she wants to avoid emotionalism tonight. Albert thinks he played the best game of the three, which will make him feel 'stronger and a little bit sharper.' Coach, doing Tai Chi, discusses how he became the Dragon-slayer and tried to change the game, then recounts the Chinese story of the Dragon-slayer--but who knows? Maybe it was Twain or Shakespeare or one of those guys who slew dragons? Coach wants to rise from the ashes. He's just a bad metaphor machine--something like John Locke (the historical one, not the one on LOST) trying to describe light.... Here's the jury: Albert says he's honored, privileged, and humbled to be in this position. He says that the game is a social experiment and that's what he loved and appreciated about it. It's a game about people. And he thinks a higher power brought all of them together, so he looks forward to answering their questions. Sophie feels like she outplayed, outwitted, and outlasted. She won immunities, she had a strategy she laid out from the beginning, and she feels like she made some genuine friendships even though she's not a used car salesman. Coach says that he's a character and not built for challenges like Ozzy. He tried to lead with love, appreciation, and respect this time instead of arrogance. He's truly blessed to have had the chance to get to know a piece of each of them throughout these challenges, etc.

Even Coach, Sophie, and Albert clapped for Ozzie, a bit reluctantly : - ), but that just proves they had to vote him off or else he would have walked off with the whole thing. I hope they don't do that remembrance walk they have in the past. Can someone please make Whitney stop with that smug expression she is giving everyone?

From the way the jury questions are going, I think Sophie might just win, not so much for her but as a vote against Coach and Albert.

Jury gets first shot: Ozzy: I got good news/bad news. Good news - game not decided. Bad news - no one wants to vote for any of you. Sophie -0 you're still a brat. Albert - right place right time. Coach - give you credit as a veteran getting to the end. I'm giving you the only chance to answer - "honor", etc. - bunch of bull. It would be both of us sitting there if that was true. Coach said he had crossroads and had to compromise and break his word - hurt me, hurt other people. He wants to win the million. Most of the time honorable, but some times not. Ozzy unleashes the dogs. Jim - Albert, tell me why the two people next to you shouldn't be here and don't start with a compliment that would lose my vote. Albert - immediately steps on it. Coach shouldn't win because Savaii viewed Coach as leader, but Sophie and me brought him here. Coach was carried, he didn't do the carrying, Sophie didn't play a social game. Albert says he made truer connections. Dawn: Congratulations. Question for Sophie - what is your strategy - Sophie says "I wish I was a man" when I came to the game, I saw Coach as the equivilant of a young girl - wanting to restore loyalty. Albert up with strategy and she liked talking strategy with him. Coach and Sophie got more on the same page as her relationship with Albert deteriorated. She knew Coach wouldn't write down her name. Rick - Coach, "honor, dignity" what do you ahve to say to me? Coach says "I apologize." Rick - you stuck me in the back. Albert - you used God and stuck me in the back, too. Sophie - is your name worth lying and cheating? Sophie says "no", she feels worst about lying to Rick. Rick is MAD!! Brandon - what's up guys? Coach - at the beginning of this game you said as a man of god, no matter what you wouldn't vote me out. Coach thanks him for raising the bar, it was an honor to play with him, Coach thinks Brandon should be one of the final three. Brandon forgives him. Albert - what do you think about using God to get to final three? Albert says he didn't do that, and the game brought him back and closer to his God. Brandon asks whether he knew Brandon was going home. "Yes or No?" Albert - says he did not know, but he's not convincing. Whitney - congratuolations, Albert - you're a little sleepy. You buttered people up when you thought they were leaving the game, you made no move against your alliance. Coach, you used God to manipulate your tribe. Sophie, you're the most condescending person I've ever met. Sophie - that's part of who I am, I'm hard to get to know (she's getting emotional), it's not such a good quality and a weakness. Edna - we're all here to play Survivor. Inherent ingredient is manipulation. What is the most historic way to manipulate? Religion. We all came here to be duped. Shouldn't hold hard feelings for being duped. These people did it successfully. Congratulations. Keith - Coach, on individual immunity idol - were you going to use it for the team? Coach says "6-6" tribal I would have used it. He didn't play it because he didn't need to. Sophie - Albert found the clue, Coach found the idol. Turns in herself and Coach and Albert for staging the discovery for Brandon. Cochran - fan of Coach. You really stroked my ego, and I loved that you tricked me you got me you played a really impressive game. I don't appreciate the "honor" thing - explain yourself and don't say honor. Coach - I tried to please everyone, pleased no one. I knew it was my third and final time, and each day I talked myself into what I had to do. Everyone hates me and I'm a terrible strategist. I'm not devious and this came to bite me. Sophie says she's the strategist, and Albert says he was a strategist also. End of questions - Jeff say who are you going to vote for? Give you a moment.

Ozzy says the game's not decided. Nobody wants to vote for any of you guys. Sophie, you're justa pretentious brat. Albert, you just happened to have been in the right place at the right time. Coach, you have the chance to win the game based on what you say now. You talked about honor and integrity. Did you play the game with honor? I tried, but I had to break my word. Most of the time I played it honorably, but sometimes I had to do things that were dishonorable. Jim: Albert, why shouldn't the people next to you win? And don't start with a compliment? Albert: I love this question. The jury laughs. Albert says he and Sophie really carried Coach because Coach had a target on his back. Dawn: Sophie, I want to understand your strategy. Why Coach and Albert? Sophie: I saw Coach as a young girl who wanted approval. Albert, I could talk strategy with, but our relationship gradually deteriorated. I was going to vote him out. Rick: Coach, do you have anything to say to me at all? I apologize.. Albert, when you used the God thing and got Brandon to give you the immunity necklace, that was a bunch of bull. Can I comment on that? No. Asked Sophie a question, but it's moving too quickly for met to catch. Brandon: Coach, you made your word "as a man of God" to have my back. What do you have to say for yourself? I'm sorry. You raised the bar. You should be sitting here. Albert, how do you feel about using God to get here? I'd never use God. This game brought me closer to my personal relationship with God. I appreciate that, but did you know I was going home? Brandon keeps saying "yes or no" and won't really let Albert get a sentence in. Whitney: Albert, you are sleazy. And believe me, as an adulteress who started an affair on a show produced by the man who puts Old Don Trump on the air, I know sleazy. Coach, you use god and you're gross. Sophie, you're awful and sanctimonious. Edna: We're here to play the game and manipulate. And what's the oldest way of doing that? religion. So congratulations for manipulating us and duping us. No questions. Keith: Coach, were you going to use the immunity idol as an individual thing or for your tribe? I felt it was a group thing and I would have used it when it was 6-6. Then Sophie pulls back the curtain on the truth of the idol's discovery, saying that they staged its discovery. Brandon is shocked. Cochran: He doesn't appreciate this whole bullshit about honor, so Coach, why this honor stuff when you don't even know the word? It was like a stack of cards and the whole thing turned into a shambles. I'm a terrible strategist. In my real life, I'm not that way. Sophie says it's probably my fault because I was his strategist. I was his original strategist, Albert offers, somewhat pathetically. Jury now will get to make up their minds

Wow when Whitney, who cheated on her husband on national tv, calls you sleazy like she did Albert you know you are in trouble. No secret I want Sophie for the win and the reasons I do is that she won challenges and was a good strategist. We did not see her failing miserably at the social part but based on comments she must have. Or else that is just Ozzie stirring the pot against her as she is the reason he is sitting on the jury.
