Mutiny!

In a new twist in Survivor last night, they introduced the Mutiny clause. You have 10 seconds to decide. Quit your tribe and join the other or stay put. I assumed no one would do it, but to my amazement, 2 idiots decided to throw the game away and jump ship. Candace first (because she's in love with Adam and wanted to be on his team) followed shortly there-after by perhaps the most idiotic, Jonathan. He seemed to think he needed to stay with Candace, not knowing she really didn't trust him and wanted to get away from him. He basically screwed the pooch on that one. He went from a position of relative safety to being hated by his old tribe and on the bottom rung of the ladder in his new tribe. Nate said it best, that he was a total idiot if he thought they would ever trust him.

Now the tribes sit at 8 to 4. But the 4 left were bonded tightly by the betrayal and they came out smoking winning both the award and immunity challenges and Ozzie has a new life. He will be incredibly difficult to beat in individual immunity and might have gotten voted off had the mutiny not occured. He and Ule played with a vengence and Ozzie even told the others that "Mutineers die first." I loved it.

Luckily for Jonathan the old tribe was still pissed at Brad and wanted him gone first so he gets to play 3 more days but he's definitely next to go on that tribe. For a guy that planned everything well in advance and never made a snap decision, his downfall will be for doing the opposite, a fitting end.
