The big twist on tonight's Survivor was a double kidnapping -- each tribe had to choose two people from the other group that would best benefit them.

The brain trust over at Zhan Hu didn't even consider that the other tribe would also get to steal two people. Peih Gee just went on and on about how the power was shifting to them. Not so fast!

Zhan Hu picked James and Aaron and Fei Long went with Frosti and Sherea.

Once they realized that they were losing people, too, Sherea said it hadn't even crossed their minds, and, "That was really dumb." Good thing they realized that, at least!

Frosti interviews the morning after he joined Fei Long how excited he was to wake up to smack talk about Jean-Robert. This was because he walked up and started telling everyone what to do, which never goes over well. Still, the poker player appears unable to read his competition.

At Zhan Hu, everyone but James lazed in the river while James worked and worked and worked around camp. Peih Gee comes up with the idea of throwing two immunity challenges so that if the tribes merged with 10 people total left, it would be five from each side.

When it was time for the challenge, it appeared that the contestants have been given their bathing suits, and thank God, because the underwear was getting dicier every episode. Jaime was so obviously not trying to win, so I guess they were going for the throwing challenges idea.

And the problem with throwing it? James and Aaron end up peeeeeeeved. James yelled and said he wasn't going to support the tribe anymore with work. The other problem with throwing the challenge? Not warning Erik, who is also peeved.

Peih Gee talked to James, who said he thought Aaron should stay. She said they had hoped to keep James and sway him to their side, but after the challenge, he doesn't trust them at all. 

At tribal, Jaime couldn't wipe the smile off her face, and Jeff easily managed to get her to tell him they threw the challenge. James talked about how he couldn't stick around if people weren't going to give it 100 percent. Aaron said he wanted to stay as long as possible. It looked like James was for sure going home, but instead the tribe kicked him to the curb and kept James.

So what happens next week? Is James going to try to win the immunity challenge single-handedly? Will he just stand there and watch?

It's an interesting idea to throw the challenges in terms of numbers, but since 1) you never know when the merge is actually going to happen and 2) the tribal alliances are pretty dang fluid. It would have made much more sense to try to make really strong alliances with the new people. Oh, well.
