Now, usually I can forgive people for being naive and assume people will vote along tribal lines, but he's the one who hatched the plan to get rid of a former Galu. What made him think none of them would do the same? And why so overconfident when you know you all the Galu chicks and Foas are completely unreliable? I can understand him being bamboozled by his fellow Galu himbots, but why did he assume he had everyone else? You'd have to be a complete retard to act so cocky when you know half the people's votes aren't even solid.

Also, your scraggly patch of chest hair looks stupid.

Erik seemed like he was about to cry with his shaky voice giving his last words during his exit. And aside from too many confessionals from Russel yet again, I thoroughly enjoyed the wasted HI (yay! both gone!) and the fact that it should be pretty obvious to him now that he is not in control of the game. Laura schooling him was great, haha, then she wins immunity. And then NATALIE steps it way UP! Lots of good moments this episode, and laughos from Dave too. Only thing that could have topped tonight's episode was another HFF appearance. Edited to retract my comment about Jaison: I re-watched the episode and realized that the first time, I missed the fact the Erik vote was Jaison's idea. He has my respect, and Natalie merely carried out his plan. Maybe all that pre-merge complaining was a game of let's get them all to under estimate me so I won't be the alpha male threat voted off at merge. HFF?

That's one of the worst strategies I have ever heard. He told the foa foas how to vote condescendingly yet gave them no promises or explanation while he knew they had an idol. He told them to leave Russell out of the loop. Wtf. Even if the other arbitrary parts of his plan worked (which they didnt at all) why didnt he think the foa's would play the idol then use their 4 votes to take him out? He thought that if they wanted to keep russell safe they would just tell him to play the idol then STILL follow erik's instructions? What a moron This episode was epic. yes the boot was predictable but the way they showed it coming together was literally amazing. it was like the edgardo boot with the pre-tribal strategising. Also, I went from loving erik to hating him in about 20 minutes so it was satisfying.

Yes, he had it coming, but it was so predictable. The fact that we knew Erik's ass was gone was what made it so awesome. He was spouting off his mouth, digging a further and further hole the entire time, and the fact that we knew his ass was gone just made it all the more hilarious, capping off with his boot.

Erik had no social game, there was no reason for him to go but he made himself a target by being such a fucking asshole. Exactly. He was such an idiot for belittling everyone that way, knowing that THEY'D BE ON THE FUCKING JURY. It's like these fucktards have never seen an episode of Survivor.

The merge was started with three extremely clear voting blocks of 5, 4, and 3. I'm not going to call him out for not sensing that the four guys would turn on him, but did he not at least think that Laura, Kelly, and Monica would join up with Foa Foa, especially seeing how Laura had just spent a ton of time on that beach?

WTF? Here I was hoping for Russell boot finally. Get that fat mess off the show.

WTF? Here I was hoping for Russell boot finally. Get that fat mess off the show. Erik's name came up before they went to TC by FF. They approached the girls and basically told them the truth: Monica was the target. Why? Because FF had already formed a tight bond and new how to treat each other, and was hoping Galu would have some decency about them in the way they treated FF. Erik did not show that. and it's not necasserily the truth that bothered everyone, it was how it was said. The tone of his voice, his body language. Even going on and on about it was grating. Imagine FF was completely wiped out and it was just Galu now. You would think several people would think "Gee, I wished we could have voted Erik out while we still had the chance. Now he has the majority votes and we are the new FF's, the underdogs of the merged tribe."

Pretty entertaining. I just couldn't. I had to stop after seeing the day-after video. There was no good reason to vote me off, someone must have been spreading lies, I didn't do anything wrong, I would play the same way again, etc. And in the just-voted-off video he says he doesn't regret not playing the idol. Gosh, why regret that? With his level of ego, he will probably use his final three questions to act like its them who made stupid decisions.

Dude probably had one too many easy lays during his baretending nights and it went completely to his head, giving him permanent ego damage. I've met a fair share of guys like this in my lifetime. Or perhaps it's the fact that he's Hollywood trash who knows he's in a dead end job and will never amount to anything so he plays mental gymanstics in his head to make himself feel a lot bigger and better than he is to cover up the inevitable fact that he's heading nowhere in life. Again....met a lot of guys like that in my lifetime. But he was sadly still much more interesting than most people on this season anyways, so whatevs.

It's funny that Russell had almost nothing to do with it and it was simply down to Erik and his big mouth and incredible stupidity and arrogance. Everything fell like dominos after that. Idiot.
