strategically or socially to make anyone want to keep her in the game.
Hell, even the people that saved her didnt bother telling her or including her in their plans.
even called her a bitch.

I get that its natural to root for the underdog, but all she did was whine and pout.
I demand action and intelligence from mySurvivorcontestants, not woe-is-me sob stories.
She got in Coachs face.
She made Debbie cry.
She outed them both as liars, liars, pants on fire.
But, as always, Im getting ahead of myself.
Lets take it from the top.
After last weeks blindside of Tyson, we were all hotly anticipating how Coach was going to react.
The answer: Total submissiveness.
He and Debbie were falling all over themselves complimenting J.T.
and Stephen on the move, eventhankingthem for not telling them beforehand.
Thanking them!!!
Bold and brilliant, tonight, said Coach.
Absolutely no hard feelings.
What could have possibly transpired in the mere one-hour or so it took to get back to camp?
Did the wolf stop for a snack along the way and become significantlylessravenous?
Wow, way to back up those words, Coach.
Youre such a freakin warrior!
Never have I seen a tribe up in numbers at the merge self-destruct so quickly.
You know what wasnotthat amazing, however?
This is what theSurvivorproducers like to refer to as a F you challenge.
Unfortunately, neither thing happened.
I dont know why everyone trusts me so much, he said.
In this game, Im not that trustworthy, and it seems like people would catch on to that.
It may be the accent.
The thing is, hes probably right.
I think itisthe accent.
The whole charming hillbilly thing has definitely worked to his advantage.
Stephen ended up winning the hum-drum affair, and then he did something incredibly stupid.
After sending Erinn off to Exile (non) Island, he picked Taj and J.T.
to accompany him on the natural spring reward.
Why would you leave Sierra, Coach, and Debbie back together at camp?
Its just not smart.
I thought you said you were gonna be loyal, Coach asked Sierra.
And then you wrote my name down at Tribal Council, she responded.
to task for blindsiding him, but even go so far as to compliment him for doing it.
Thank you, sir, may I have another!
(It must be some sort of warrior code thing.)
Im done, Debbie started yelling and then stormed off.
Hey, if you thought the reward challenge was boring, wait till you check out the immunity one!
Part of the problem is that they havent been able to do a whole lot in the water.
When you get stuck on land, your options become more limited.
But just in general, a lot of competitions this cycle have seemed…well, uninspired.
Very rarely have I seen a course or heard Probst explain the rules and said to myself Cool!
for immunity and randomly yelling out Dragon Slayer!
in the process, but the real drama was about to occur back at camp.
Sierra was trying to convince Stephen and his man-crush J.T.
According to Coach, his response had been, I cannot do that to those guys.
There is gonna be no Timbira alliance.
I dont like it.
It makes me sick to my stomach.
Which is apt considering he makes 90 percent of America sick to their stomachs, but I digress.
I have no problem confronting him to show you that he was lying, she said to J.T.
and then sure enough, away she went.
(For her part, Debbie started sobbing, Im too old for this.)
Coach, of course, always saves his inexplicable best for Tribal Council.
Sierra certainly found it absurd.
ThatsSurvivor Vanuatu/MicronesiaTribal Council facial expression champion Eliza Orlins!!!
No one else can go all the way around on a single eye roll.
Thats pure 100 percent Orlins right there!
Still, thems fighting words!
Its on, Sierra!
Eliza is calling you out!
But Sierra was just getting ready to call Coach out for his big lie.
Would he admit it?
Where did he come up with this one?
It was easy, considering that everything in Coachs warped mindhebelieves to be true.
(Remember the mad posse of Peruvian dwarfs?)
Speaking of the Almighty, Ive always considered Coach to be sort of like Gods concept album.
But people on soap operas have to die.
And it was Sierras time to die (in the game, at least).
Sorry written underneath).
What was that all about?
Or: 2.)
Okay, a few notes before you hit the message boards.

No, seriously you will.
Okay, so are you standing in line to throw stones at Coach?
