As SURVIVOR: PEARL ISLANDS moved forward, the once-dominant Drake tribe lost their second Immunity Challenge in a row, causing them to vote Michelle Tesauro, the 22-year-old student from Pittstown, New Jersey, out of the tribe in a six to one decision. Michelle's failure to feign weakness at the Immunity Challenge angered her tribemates, who chose to send her packing. Shortly after her torch was extinguished, Michelle remarked, "Regardless of all the politics, I wish I could've been here longer, just had more time to kick some butt and really get into the game."


MORGAN FORCED TO MOVE SHELTER

With Drake member Rupert Boneham, the 39-year-old troubled teens mentor from Indianapolis, Indiana, as a guest, the Morgan tribe moved their shelter in order to avoid the rising tide. The endless debating coupled with long procrastination caused Rupert to observe, "These guys work very hard at not working hard. They fight and argue and bicker and bitch amongst each other so much that I know why it takes them hours to do something."
