You will not believe the things she tried to stay on the show.

Of course Hope doesn’t think this through and talks with Julia about how Shamar said either her or Eddie is going home. Julia goes to tell Sherri (and Matt, who I guess happens to be there) about Shamar’s blabbermouth. Julia – probably putting this together with Shamar’s earlier “I’m going to quit” conversation – thinks this means that Shamar has given up on the game.

Laura, who has come up to see what is happening, points out that if Shamar told Hope their plans that he won’t be voting with their alliance. Julia is also worried that Shamar won’t be voting with them. So Laura, still paranoid about being voted off even though no one has said her name that we’ve seen, has a quick conversation about the remaining three of the pretty alliance plus her and Julia voting for Shamar. Reynold is thrilled at this, and claims Tribal Council will be epic, epic, epic and that maybe he’ll have to pull “some crazy moves with the idol.” Unlikely.

Tribal Council. First question is about all the shouting that went on when they arrived back at camp. Reynold says that he wasn’t yelling, and he was just confused about what happened. It was Shamar who was screaming from “like, a kilometer away.” He doesn’t even know what it was about.

Probst says that again Shamar is in the hot seat because of his temper. Shamar says that Reynold is just upset because his plan didn’t work out and that he is “the scapegoat for everybody.” Probst asks Shamar if he is often misunderstood. “Not this much, but these people just make up lies.” As though lying is not part of the game.

Who has lied? “Reynold has lied,” and Reynold asks how that could even be possible because “he has a new policy where I’m not even allowed to talk to him.” “But you still do it,” Shamar interrupts. Probst points out that it is a social game, and Shamar says that the social game Reynold is playing is “I’m friendly to everybody and he doesn’t want to talk to me. Don’t play that game with me. I think you’re an evil person, just leave me alone.” Of course I don’t think Reynold is evil. He just expects everything to go his way.

Hope says that she spoke with Shamar, and says Shamar told her there was a 99% chance she was going home and that she should turn on her friends. Shamar clarifies more angrily than he should, that Hope said she was going home and he said it wasn’t 99% sure. Hope is like “okay, whatever” even though Shamar is correct, while Mike and Sherri are paying close attention. More lies to keep the blame on Shamar, according to Shamar.

Probst asks Matt “Why Shamar,” and Matt says that Shamar gets carried away and gets aggravated too easily. Probst calls Julia out for looking like she is “reliving a trauma,” and she says that after Tribal Council, Shamar “screamed at me, again and again and again. You’re weak, you have a weak personality.” “This is the essence of the problem,” says Shamar, “people take things that I say and try to embellish them because they feel a certain way and I can’t do anything about that.” We weren’t shown the full conversation between Shamar and Julia, so who knows what was said.
