November 7, 2002

  After an emotional Tribal Council, the 26-year-old real estate agent from Austin, Texas was voted out of the Sook Jai tribe 3-1. After 24 days of living together in the harsh Thai environment, the Sook Jai tribe bond grew stronger in the final days, making the vote even more difficult. Erin becomes the eighth member of SURVIVOR: THAILAND to be voted off the island and the first member of the Jury. She will return every three days to observe Tribal Council and will ultimately vote for the winner of the million-dollar prize and the title of Sole Survivor. After her torch was extinguished, Erin gave her Final Words: "I came to Thailand with a small bag and myself, and I leaving with far more than I could have ever expected." (Erin's Final Words )
STAYING UP LATE
 While waiting up for the Sook Jai tribe to return from Tribal Council, anticipation mounted as the men of Chuay Gahn speculated on whom the tribe had voted out. "There is a lot of tension in their camp, isn't there?" claimed Clay Jordan, the 46-year-old restaurateur from Monroe, Louisiana, as he rested near the fire. Returning from Tribal Council, where the Sook Jai tribe ousted Shii Ann, a vulnerable Penny Ramsey huddled her tribe together to reassure their allegiance to one another. "We are all four and we are all strong. Let's stay together and let's stay true to one another, and just want you to know that I love y'all, and thank you very much for keeping me around." As the two tribes sat around the fire, Ken acknowledged, "We are in a unique position because those of us that are left are now part of the Jury." (Jan on the tribal situation)
