Because, again, there were some big red flags in Elie’s edit that suggest things won’t end well. Or, at least, the one that thinks she is calling the shots. She is presented as the one calling shots. So it’s reasonable to expect Karla to want to remove Ryan from the equation and bring Geo closer to her.Įlie - Once again, Elie was the most prominent character in the Baka tribe. This would make sense, as the premiere showed Karla and Geo bonding at camp. That suggests that Ryan would be her target, so she can sever that relationship. It’s important to note that Karla didn’t say she was cautious about Ryan & Geo as a pair she specifically said she was worried about Ryan being close to Geo. And choosing to include her concerns about the Ryan & Geo relationship lays the groundwork for where the story is heading next. That tells us that Karla has a key role to play in the future of this tribe her decision of which way to go will likely be Coco’s defining pre-merge story.
While this wasn’t anything groundbreaking, it did its job in reminding us of the alliance structure on Coco and where Karla fits within it.
She name-checked both alliances and revealed her worries about Ryan’s closeness with Geo. She essentially just reiterated what she said last week, outlining the tribe dynamics and how she’s positioned in the middle. However, one person we did hear from was Karla. Karla - As I mentioned earlier, the Coco tribe was short-changed in this episode. I still feel a bit off about him not receiving an intro confessional, and the Cody stuff gives me some pause, but I fully expect Jesse to remain a strategic frontrunner. Overall, this episode cemented my feelings about Jesse as one of the season’s lead characters and top contenders.
So there is a potential story arc there of Jesse overlooking Cody as a threat (or at least someone that could screw things up later down the line). However, we know that Cody is a salesperson himself, and, judging by his ability to collect the beads, he is a pretty good one. At the same time, Jesse played down Dwight’s fears over Cody, noting that Cody is just a “fun guy” and so he isn’t worried about him. Jesse listed that as one of the reason’s to target her. There was a big deal made over Justine being a salesperson and how this made her dangerous. Photo: CBSĪre there any downsides? Perhaps. So, this tells us that Jesse is not only a strong narrator but also a capable strategist and someone whose perspective matters. And ultimately, Jesse got his way, both in suggesting Cody use his palm frond hat as a ruse to collect the beads and getting out his target Justine. We heard his opinion on the different personalities and how each person helps or hinders his game.Įven when it came to Cody’s beware advantage drama, the episode made sure to check in with Jesse and how he thought about it all. He described the dynamics and where each person on the tribe stood and how he fit into the equation. The goings-on of the Vesi tribe was primarily presented from Jesse’s perspective. He had a massive 12 confessionals (matched only by Cody). Jesse - This episode cemented Jesse as one of the season’s main narrators. And finally, on Baka, the three boys noted how tight Elie and Jeanine are and how they might need to make a move against them. Meanwhile, on Coco, Karla pointed out the closeness between Ryan and Geo and how that is making her cautious. On Vesi, of course, there were worries about the close relationship between Justine and Noelle, which ultimately led to Justine getting the boot. If there was a consistent theme across the episode, it was the concern over tight pairs. We know from Survivor 41 that it’s unwise to dismiss a tribe outright. It’s still early days, though, so we shouldn’t write off the blue tribe just yet. Instead, the Coco tribe was almost neglected entirely, as the episode centered primarily on the Vesi and Baka tribes. OVERVIEWįor a 90-minute episode, I expected a more balanced edit. While intended as a condensed version of Edgic, for this season, I will be including my ratings for each castaway at the end of the article. Hello all, welcome back to the Edit Bay! This weekly feature takes a dive into the edit of the latest Survivor episode, analyzing the key stories, main characters, and top winner contenders.
