ALLEGIANCES SHIFT: KELLY VOTED OUT
December 6, 2001
 On night 24, after a hair-raising Tribal Council, Kelly Goldsmith, the 22-year-old Behavioral Research Analyst from Rancho Santa Fe, California, had her torch extinguished and was voted out of the tribe. Kelly's demise came when an enraged Lex wrongly accused her of casting the vote against him at the previous Tribal Council; Teresa had cast that vote. It was a close call, a 5-4 vote against Kelly and Lex, respectively. Brandon, persuaded by Lex to join the old Boran tribe members, cast the deciding vote. So Kelly became the eighth person voted out of SURVIVOR AFRICA. She will become the first of a seven-member Jury that will return each week to Tribal Council and ultimately cast the final vote for who will win the title of Ultimate Survivor. ( Kelly's Final Words )
On the War Path
 On day 22, nine Survivors remained. After the mysterious vote against him, Lex went on the warpath for the "snake" that turned on him. "I will cut the head off of whoever it is that did this," he warned Kelly. "I'm gonna take them out. I'm gonna slit their throat!" Seeking the culprit, Lex forced Kelly to swear on her brother's life that she was innocent. As Lex made the rounds testing allegiances, the others wondered what his motives actually were. Brandon concluded that it was just pure ego. Ironically, the only thing not worthy of Lex's trust was his own instinct. This became clear when he confronted Teresa. "You're the real deal," he told her, knowing in his gut she didn't betray him.
