...ingenue's hair goes, so goes the ingenue. With her newly-shaven Outback daddy, Rodger looking grimly on ( both he and Richard should have kept their beards) the Ogakor alliance held together tighter than Colby to his mother and sent a softly unraveling Elisabeth out of the tribe. She took it with spunk, doing an emotional version of Alicia's I'm-too-strong sass over the credits: She knows Colby, Tina and Keith did it out or fear - cause everybody loves...
Well, it was age before beauty as the Ogakor alliance - deprived of yet another chance to collapse on Colby - seemingly pulled itself back together for the stretch run. But while Rodger the Codger took it manfully enough, stoically offering up his old bones to save Elisabeth's decidedly cuter ones, in Week 12 it was "Survivor 2" itself that got dreadfully weepy...
...twist at the end of it all. Face it - we're all sick of Keith and his bumbling and his puppy-dog tears, and once Colby won the old-style Aussie-jailbreak Immunity Challenge by not dropping his lock in the grass, we had to hope it was him. (Rodger, interestingly enough for a 12-year bank president, retained absolutely none of the facts Probst dealt out in the challenge's setup, and basically stumbled around in the night scratching his beard and looking, well, looking like he really deserves to be called Kentucky...
...Rodger, Elisabeth's "Outback Daddy," fell for the oldest con the book - the ingenue and her "sick mother" - and the Barramundi tribe is down to four. We're supposed to be thinking about the jury, but somehow the remaining four aren't the types to have tantalizingly made enemies - or lingering shadow alliances - in the Richard Hatch tradition. (Though we caught Colby, who is probably aware that he's morphed into something of a villain of late, trying to win back Jerri's woman-scorned heart by shooting a meaningful glance at her breasts...
...Rodger blamed it on the women, but we know it was Rodger's vengeful Old Testament God who is putting the five remaining Jobs through some pretty serious trials. No food except the rice, and apparently Keith is cooking it all next week. By the time Colby, who seems rather full of beans despite having apparently left his Reward Challenge Buffet in little piles all along the way home, receives the vengeance due the well-muscled and well-fed, CBS may well have a very serious Reality TV question to answer...
