Quit, Ya Weenie

Some good drama on tonight's Survivor, as the Morgan tribe continued to disintegrate. Kudos to Mark Burnett for the two additional thematica twists revealed tonight: the winning team in each reward challenge gets to plunder the opposing camp of any one item (a reward from a previous season, but nonetheless appropos), and the burial of a treasure somewhere on each island, with each reward earning the team a third of a treasure map and a clue to help find it. Brilliant! If I were in the game, I'd be completely obsessing over that map and what goodies might be concealed in the chest. Some of the tribe's luggage, perhaps?

Meanwhile, Andrew is distinguishing himself as the kind of person I despise: self-righteous, egotistical, certain the problem is anywhere but with himself, and secure in the knowledge that his poop is lemony fresh. And whaddya know... he's a lawyer.

I must admit, at this point Morgan is not a particularly likeable team. I feel sorry for most of the members of Drake if there is a team mixing twist on this one (Shawn, who lost the fishing spear, and loudmouth jon would deserve it). We saw how a member of Drake responded when she saw the Morgan camp (amazement that people are living like that). I almost want Morgan to win a rewards challlenge just so they will see how the other half lives. They have been close in both immunity challenges. They just can't seem to close the deal.
