In the end, Ozzy’s slow and steady moves result in the victory. Before putting his buff in the fire, Cochran admits, "This has been by far, the most incredible moment of my life.” Jeff tells Ozzy that he has a big decision to make. He then brings out Sophie’s dad Thurston, Edna’s sister Debbie, Coach’s brother Pete, Rick’s wife Katy, Albert’s mom Annie, and Brandon’s dad Sean, who is also Russell Hantz’s brother. They all hug their loved ones and then return to the bleachers. Ozzy now has to pick one person to spend some time with their loved one. He knows this is a very important strategic decision. He chooses Albert. Jeff then asks Ozzy to choose a second person. Ozzy chooses Coach. Ozzy then gets to choose one final person to spend time with their loved one, so he chooses Brandon. So Rick, Edna and Sophie return to camp without their loved ones. Jeff gives Ozzy, Albert and his mom Annie, Coach and his brother Pete and Brandon and his dad Sean the EVO 3D phone from Sprint to take pictures of their visit, which will take place on Redemption Island at Ozzy’s camp.
TRIBAL COUNCIL
Edna admits that she is in the hot seat tonight and pleads her case that Brandon should go instead of her, since their tribe mantra is honor, loyalty and integrity. She reminds them that Brandon was caught lying even back at the first Tribal Council to Mikayla about Stacey and Christine. She also makes a point to let the jury and Jeff know that Brandon lacked honor even today in the way that he revealed his strategy in the challenge to make sure she lost. Brandon tries to defend himself saying that he was just being open and that Edna has misconstrued things and was planting seeds in the minds of others. Edna defends herself saying, "I didn’t make one of those things up.” Sophie and Albert both admit that this is the difficult part of the game, since they are down to only Upolu members to vote out. The vote is taken. Edna votes for Brandon, but all others vote for Edna. So, Edna Ma, the 35 year-old, anesthesiologist, from Los Angeles, CA becomes the fourteenth person voted out of SURVIVOR: SOUTH PACIFIC and sent to Redemption Island.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Do you kneel down and thank God every morning for bringing you the Hantz family? As if Russell’s evil genius gameplay and Brandon’s schizophrenic back-and-forth drama hasn’t given you enough great TV, now here comes Shawn to shake things up on the loved ones visit. Two part question: 1) Was there ever any talk of Russell coming as Brandon’s loved one, or could that not happen because he was planning to keep that connection a secret? And 2) How many other Hantzes are out there waiting to get on the show?
JEFF PROBST: The Survivor Gods have been very good to us over the years and the Hantz family is one of our greatest gifts. I think Brandon did consider having his uncle Russell come visit but he wasn’t sure at the start of the show whether he would ever admit to being a Hantz so he decided to play it safe and bring his dad. How great would that have been to bring Russell on the show as a loved one?!!

Another question about the loved ones reward: What about the loved ones who flew out, but their relatives were voted out by the time they got there. Did John, Whitney, and Dawn get to hang out with their loved ones at Ponderosa?
Depending on how far away we are it can take 2-3 days to get loved ones to location so yes, there are times when a loved one flies out but then their contestant is voted out and so they never get to see them. In those cases, no, they do not get to see them. It’s part of the policy of how we run the show. Especially when those contestants are still on the jury, we just don’t want them having any outside influences.

Be honest, you’ve been practicing your Dragonslayer move, haven’t you? You looked very fluid and zen-like with your motions out there.
I love the Dragonslayer. I think Coach is a kick. If we all had that sort of a sense of humor about ourselves imagine how much more fun the world would be? As for my moves, hmm… jury still out.
