Sorry to see you go this way Aaron (Credit: CBS)
On Survivor: China, a twist was injected into the game. Each of the tribes chose two members from the other tribe. Fei Long picked Sherea and Frosti to join their throng. Zhan Hu mistakenly thought they were getting two new players. Why they assumed this is beyond us. They opted for James and Aaron.
Almost immediately, Peih-Gee made a proposal to Jamie. The girls decided that it would be better to throw the next two immunity challenges and vote off James and Aaron so that when the merge happens – and they assume it will happen at ten – there will be five former Fei Long members and five former Zhan Hu members.
It’s a dirty play. We ain’t going to sugar-coat it. What’s even worse is that Jamie grinned throughout the process. That’s even a jerkier thing to do. Throw the challenge and show everyone you’re obviously doing it. That’s just wrong.
It’s really poor – and potentially stupid – gamesmanship. James was irate that the group didn’t try. Eric went along with the girls reluctantly and Aaron tried to buy himself a few extra days. Honestly, what else could he do?
James told Jeff in Tribal Council that he wanted the tribe to vote him off if this was the way they were going to play. In an even meaner move, they voted Aaron off and kept James around to what end? So he can work around camp? So they can torture him mentally?
Hopefully, James will make the jury and can keep Peih-Gee or Jamie, should they make it to the final two, from winning the season. They don’t deserve it.
What a disgusting turn of events!
