ALL IN THE FAMILY: JAKE BILLINGSLEY VOTED OUT
December 5, 2002

Jake BillingsleyJake writes it downOn night 33, after an emotional three days of surprise visits from their loved ones, the Chuay Jai tribe said goodbye to Jake Billingsley, the 61-year-old land broker from McKinney, Texas. Jake, the last remaining member of Sook Jai, found himself facing a tight group of former Chuay Gahn members, and he could not negotiate his way in. Voted out of the tribe 5-1, Jake becomes the fourth member of the Jury that returns to the island every three days to observe Tribal Council and will ultimately vote for who will be the Sole Survivor. Upon leaving the Tribal Council area, Jake looked back on his memorable experience on the island, "When one door shuts, another one always opens. I had such a grand experience here. I'll go back to Texas and I'll be the happiest guy in the world." ( Jake's Final Words )

TRIBAL SQUABBLES

Clay JordanRelaxing in the sunReturning to camp after Tribal Council, Clay Jordan, the 46-year-old restaurateur from Monroe, Louisiana, expressed his indignation at Jake's comments that he works harder at camp than others. "I didn't like that statement at all at that Council meeting," barked Clay. Believing Clay was out of line, Helen Glover gave her opinion, "I don't think that Clay liked that statement at Tribal Council because it's true. Jake does more work than Clay. The people working know they are working. The people skating know they are skating." ( Jake on Clay's outburst )
