Survivor Thailand, Episode 4
Yea! - Ghandia got voted off. I thought she should have been the first. I follow the simple rule that if you screw up and cause the team to lose a challenge, you should be the one to go. Simple, safe, effective. In the first immunity challenge, her team had a lead going into the puzzle she had to solve. Well, she freaked, and Jed (Jed!) beat her easily, so in my simple world she should have walked the plank, not the preacher man. Who cares if he rubbed people the wrong way - the first part of survivor is all about winning the challenges, period. And Ghandia didn't just lose challenges, she was the center of dissention and divisiveness for her team, she was an "it's all about me" person. They had their chance two weeks ago, but they threw out throw up girl instead.
And the whole Ghandia/Ted controversy should have ended when she accepted his apology. If what he did was inexcusable, she should have said so, and if she had second thoughts later, she should have gone to Ted first about them. But no, she had to start playing the second phase of the game before the first was finished, and after accepting his apology, started stabbing him in the back with the girls. She turned it into girls vs. guys for their team.
So long Ghandia, and I'm sure you're team thanks your for all the help.
