ALLEGIANCES SHIFT: KELLY VOTED OUT (Continued)
When the Cat's Away
 Back at camp, the Tribe took the opportunity to assess the situation. With Lex temporarily out of the picture, people were more at ease to feel out the allegiances. Teresa agreed that with Lex gone, "it allowed us to do things I don't think would have happened." Then Brandon added cryptically, "this is going to be so much fun!" The Survivors also learned that old allegiances don't die easily. Frank explained, "God bless her, Teresa apparently gathered Kim and Brandon back under the original Samburu wing." This was a mixed blessing: Frank went on to say that Kim and Brandon are "two individuals I can't put any trust in, but at this point in the game I really have not much choice." Aware of the consequences of the renewed allegiance, he added prophetically, "There could be a major D-Day invasion going on."
Upon Ethan and Lex's return, Ethan, in a political move, played Santa Claus to the tribe, passing out cookies (33 per person) and candy. Wary of the double-edged sword of a reward away from camp, Ethan explained, "People have a chance to plot against you." Not wanting anyone to resent him, Lex approached the situation differently by downplaying the experience in Wamba. ( Kim Powers on trusting Frank )
Immunity Challenge: Box Your Mind
 The Survivors gathered for the Immunity Challenge, where host Jeff Probst explained their task. They had one minute to memorize the contents of compartments inside a barrel, and then, using their short-term memory, players would have to recreate the items in the various compartments. Based completely on mental strength, the final round came down to four players competing in the final run-off for Immunity: Ethan, Lex, Brandon, and Tom. Proving again that "quick on the feet" is both literal and figurative for Ethan, the soccer player's memory triumphed as Ethan took Immunity.
