The Champions Were Spectacularly Blindsided On ‘Survivor’ & Viewers Are Living For It
Last night’s episode of Australian Survivor saw Abbey turn on her alliance, shifting power over to the contenders tribe. Hell yeah.
Since the very beginning of the season, the three champions Abbey, Pia, and Janine have been the main group pulling the strings but that all changed last night as Harry and Baden encouraged Abbey to move to the dark side and get Janine out of the game.

At tribal council everyone played it cool, acting like it was a given that either Harry or Baden would be sent to exile beach to compete against Daisy. But then as the votes were being read out it immediately became clear that Simon was actually the chosen one.

It was obvious that Luke and Abbey had flipped on their promise and Janine and Pia were left visually shook. It looks like the Godmother may have overlooked Abbey’s gameplay abilities.
Maybe y’all shouldn’t have come for my boi Luke, hey.
People are rejoicing after that massive Australian Survivor blindside:
Watching Janine’s face was legitimately the most satisfying television I’ve seen #SurvivorAU pic.twitter.com/C6Cx31NX4C

Janine is giving Abbey the “*you* didn’t bring *my* notes to the board meeting and *you* made *me* look like an idiot” face #SurvivorAU

Absolutely cheering on my couch AGAIN for another HUGE FLIP that breaks the game open and HELPS LUKE. No idols, no advantages just classic Survivor strategy and personalities working with and against each other in dynamic ways. I LOVE THIS SHOW #SurvivorAU
