week 1

The tribe has spoken and Brendan has been asked to leave the pool immediately.


 At Tribal Council, Ashley brushes off the challenge loss by carelessly stating, “It is what it is.”  Betsy singles out Ashley as the weakest link in her tribe, much to Russell’s disapproval.  Russell attacks Marisa for openly threatening him, which is backed up by Ben.  The two attack Marisa, but she stands her ground and insists that Russell is untrustworthy.  Marisa ultimately apologizes for making an unintelligent move in being too outspoken, and assures her tribemates that it will never happen again.  With that, the Foa Foa members cast their votes and, with seven out of the ten votes cast against her, Russell got his way, and Marisa was voted out.  Marisa Calihan, the 26 year-old student from Cincinnati, Ohio, became the first person voted out of SURVIVOR: SAMOA.    

Quote of the week:

Russell S.: “My tribe will believe anything I tell them at any point because they’re just stupid. They’ll run when I tell them to run.  They’ll walk when I tell them to walk and when I’m finished with them, just throw them in the trash,”
