The Show Must Go On...

Final Two -- Katie and Tom.

They're talking.  Katie is almost in disbelief that she made it to the Final 2.  Tom says she's very likable and is worried that she will be liked by the jury, too.

They're taking apart the camp.  Whoever wins will take home the Koror flag.  They're making a bonfire of the camp stuff.  Katie advises the fireman to be careful with the fire.  Katie says there's a scary beast inside Tom and says she'll tell all to the jury.  She says that in a confessional, not to Tom.

Now rowing to TC...
Tom says it's in the jury's hands, not his.  So be it.  He did what he had to do to get this far in the game.

TRIBAL COUNCIL
Jury members led in. 
Each of the two plea their case.

Tom first.  "Judge me on who I was, never had a nasty word for any, blah, blah..."
Katie.  "Two very different people.  Self preservation.  No immunity.  I skated and executed my plan.  I played the only cards I could play.  I outwitted."

Jury questions:
Coby -- I have issues, I'm bringing them.  He tells Katie if she gets his vote, it's not because how she played.  Goes on about not doing anything.  Accuses of riding coatails.  To Tom -- Played game dirty.  Tells him that tonight is his chance to redeem himself.

Gregg -- To Tom -- I saved you five person alliance, why should I vote for you?  Tom apologizes and says he went with Ian on the threat issue.  To Katie -- Worthless, insignificant, embarrassing on challenges... can count the number of times mean to jury folks -- how can being so pathetic be your plan?  Katie is floored.  Now gets trembled voiced. 

Steph -- To Tom -- Talks about him taking her as far as he could and feels betrayed.  What did you do to fight for me?  Tom says he went as far as he could, but had to preserve the five person alliance... not voting her off wouldn't make sense.  To Katie -- Why shouldn't I vote for Tom.  Katie tells her Tom went to her saying that Steph had to go.  Is now playing dirty, methinks.

Janu -- To Tom -- How hard was it to compromise your integrity and how do you reconcile with that?  Tom says he didn't think he crossed lines and misleading and misdirecting is part of the game.  Henever meant to hurt anyone.  To Katie -- Give three positive and negative adjectives to describe you in the game.  Katie says she doesn't have her vote anyway and doesn't answer.

Caryn -- To Tom -- What was I to you in the game, was I a pawn?  Tom says they weren't in an alliance, but now knows she meant well.  To Katie -- You were phony cruel to all but Tom and Ian, lazy... give me one reason to vote for you.

Jenn -- To Tom - chauvinistic, why should I give you the respect of my vote when you didn't respect me?  Tom says his respect came late in the game.  To Katie -- Did you play like a strong woman or a doormat?  Katie defends her strong woman and her plan.  @@

Ian -- What's the biggest reason we SHOULDN'T give you a million - to both.  Katie says her sense of humor.  @@  Tom says he's already had his payday just being there with all of them and having the adventure.

Closing Statements:

Tom:  You don't hide who you are.  I stuck with those I originally allied with.  I'm willing to be judged on who I am.  No matter how you vote, we'll all be friends.

Katie:  Says she allied with Ian and Tom because they were strong.  She sort of whines a bit.  I'm leaving with my self respect, maybe not with yours.

The vote is next...
