SP: Palau – Of Fruit Bats and Switch Camps

Oh gawd! For the Immunity Challenge, the castaways were made to eat raw fruit bats. Jef was made to sit out from the challenge since the two tribes are not in equal number of members. Also, Koror might have thought they’d lose if someone else sat out.

And they were right, cuz Koror won the Immunity Challenge again! Winning streak for Koror, actually. Since the two tribes were regrouped, Airai had not won a single Immunity Challenge.

Koror gave the Immunity Bracelet to Cris, for the second time around. But are they making the right decision? According to Mika, Cris threw up what’s left in his mouth during the challenge because he wanted Koror to win. Why? Because he didn’t want to put Shaun in jeopardy of being evicted. Cris and Shaun have a pact; they talked during the last Reward Challenge despite the rule that members from different tribes cannot exchange words. Paolo even stopped them from talking.

Cris is safe from the Tribal Council tomorrow. Who would Airai vote off? Would it be Tara or Cris?

Another twist was announced after Koror was declared winner of the Immunity Challenge – the two tribes would have to exchange camps. The Koror tribe mourned. Gone were the blankets and sleeping mats they acquired from the massage reward. They have only used them for a night. And arriving at the Airai camp, they were disgusted at what they saw – the dirt, the shabby “house,” the area seemed abandoned.

The Airai tribe, on the other hand, rejoiced in their new camp. Mika even said that she could live there even for a year.
