SURVIVOR - Palau

2ND TRIBAL COUNCIL

UNIVERSAL POINT OF VIEW:

The Belau Tribe pour into Tribal Council one by one for the second time now.

As Dorothy walks through the doors, she takes a large inhale and smiles on her exhale as she goes and takes her place in front of Jeff, along with the rest of her tribe.

Kate rubs her palms against her thighs. Sweating out of nerves and fear of failure.

"Good evening Belau!" Jeff greats

A moan of replies rumbles like a poor car engine out of the mouths of the contestants.

"Let's get straight to it shall we" states Jeff, "Dorothy, how'd the challenge go today. You obviously lost, but can you find any silver lining?"

Dorothy says, "Yea sure, I mean we all put a heap of effort in, it's the best team work I've seen so far, between most"

"Most?" Jeff asks

"Yea, there are a few bad eggs" Dorothy chuckles

"Kate, how do you feel when Dorothy says there are a 'few bad eggs'" Jeff asks Kate

"Yea she's right, it's just a matter of deciding who the bad eggs are" Kate smirks as Dorothy and Ricki look at each other and shake their heads

"Ricki, your shaking your head?" Jeff wonders

"Well, yea. I am shaking my head. Everyone is a bad egg in their own light" Ricki replies with a quick glance at Kate, who rolls her eyes in disgust.

"Is it just me Harrison, or is there conflict between blurred lines here?" Jeff asks with a chuckle under lying his question

"Oh yea! If there is one thing this tribe has to much of, it is honesty and conflict and they go together horrifyingly beautiful Jeff" Harrison laughs also

Smug smiles creep into the faces of everyone, as eyes dart around

"Excellent answer" Jeff says, Erika, are you in the middle of any conflict?"

"I try to avoid it as much as possible, but in these conditions, conflict is unavoidable so I guess everyone, including me, is in amongst any form of conflict" Erika says smiling

"Is conflict around tribe more subtle and behind the back, or is it very upfront and brutal, Kate?" Jeff asks

"Oh it's all behind the back. It's all sneaky and conniving and malicious. But I think there is more brutality in behind the back, because no one cares what they say when there not saying to the person's face." Kate says very self-certain

"Leon, what do you think when Kate says that conflict around camp is more behind the back?" asks Jeff

"I agree, on the rare occasion someone will come have a bitch to me, which is good. I know that person then trusts me" Leon answers

"Who can you trust then?" Jeff prods

"No one really, but I feel I can talk openly to people like Kate and Bennett."

"Is that self-esteem raising Bennett, hearing someone say they trust you?" Jeff asks

"Its incredible! Trust is so precious in this game, and it plants good thoughts in my head hearing someone say to me 'I trust you', because I know I will never go against trust, so it is uplifting knowing there is someone in the game that can help the both of us get across the line." Bennett says smiling at Leon

"Is trust important to you, Dorothy?" wonders Jeff

"Um, in a way.." Dorothy says quite uncertainly. Erika and Harrison pull very confused and intrigued faces. "Trust can only get you so far, I prefer to rely on my own personal effort because everyone is so unpredictable, I know what I am going to do next."

"Well, lets get to it then shall we? Bennett, your up!" Jeff annouces

***

"Alright, I'll tally the votes. Once the votes have been read, the person called they will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately." Jeff says as he lifts the lid off the urn, and opens the first vote.

"Kate"

Kate doesn't even flinch, until Jeff puts the vote down, she smiles hopefully.

"Kate. Two votes Kate"

Dorothy gets giddy, and seems to look less stress.

"Dorothy. One vote Dorothy, two votes Kate"

Dorothy doesn't even seem to be bothered.

"Kate. Three votes Kate, one votes Dorothy"

Kate begins to stress a little, and her palms begin to sweat.

"Dorothy. Two votes Dorothy, three voted Kate... two left"

Kate and Dorothy stare dangerously at each other. No hiding their feelings here.

"Dorothy, we are tide. Three votes Dorothy, three votes Kate, one vote left."

Dorothy's eyes widen with rage and indignation.

"Second person voted out of Survivor - Palau.... Dorothy! Grab your stuff and bring me your torch, leave the Tribal Council area immediately." Jeff says monotone

"Are you f***ing kidding me!" Dorothy says extremely angry and furious, as Kate claps her hands together and cries with joy

"Nice talk about trust tonight guys, really hit the nail on the head" Dorothy shouts, probably so the rest of Palau could hear.

"Dorothy, the tribe has spoken" Jeff says

"Yea, they spoke pretty 'truthfully'" Dorothy answers sarcastic as she flips her tribe the middle finger and walks out of the Tribal Council area.

"Well, that was something!" Jeff says as a few giggle, "grab your stuff and head back to camp"

VOTES:

DOROTHY - Kate
"Bitch since day one, bitch when you leave. Goodbye Kate"

KATE - Dorothy
"I will be the happiest woman alive if this works. You don't deserve to be in this game anymore, people like you never do"

RICKI - Kate
"Your the majority vote tonight, sorry."

BENNETT - Kate
"Really good playing with you. Shame you allied with the wrong people"

ERIKA - Dorothy
"I have been waiting to right this name down since day one, and boy its therapudic"

LEON - Dorothy
"If you hadn't come off so crazy so soon, you might have stayed longer"

HARRISON - Dorothy
"You lost my vote when you said you didn't care about trust."

EXIT MESSAGE:

I'm absolute furious! When I find out who flipped, I honest will go off at them! I bet it was them old hags, because kindness will always prevail blah, blah, blah! No one on that is playing any game! Absolutely infuriating! I'm probably rooting for Ricki, I suppose. She's a goat and really clingy but she is the only one that was really with me. Kate can go. Whatever. Ricki, can go push her over. I don't care. I had a good time though, just wish it could be longer.
