6. After the first immunity challenge, Frankie and Nathan with Jaden, arguably the strongest three on the Titan Tribe, conspired to take out Jess, who they believed was a 'nothing'. Who got voted out?
From Quiz "Australian Survivor" 2024: Episodes 1-3
Answer:
Frankie
Frankie, Jaden and Nathan were the 'muscle' of the Titans' tribe. Because Jess put Frankie's name to Nathan as a person to oust, Nathan went straight back to Frankie and she and Nathan decided that Jess should be the one to go as, according to Nathan Jess was "on the scrap heap", and a "nothing". Frankie and Nathan then did the rounds telling the others how to vote. When Nathan offered to 'carry' Kitty and Caroline, they did well not to roll their eyes at him but they were clearly not impressed by this 'generous' gesture. Having told everybody how to vote, and their job done, they went for a swim with their sidekick Jaden. Most of the rest of the tribe were not impressed with being told what to do. So they scrambled.
At Tribal Council the 'Power Trio' were very comfortable with where they believed they sat in the tribe hierarchy and indeed the first four of the first five votes read out were for Jess. However, the next seven votes were for Frankie. She was blindsided, much to the shock of Nathan and Jaden. (The only person outside the power trio who voted for Jess was Winna). Frankie and Nathan broke the cardinal rule of "Survivor" - You do not take away other tribe mates' autonomy, in Australia especially, where autonomy to make your own decisions is not only respected, it is expected.
Eden the cinema manager, appeared to be quick with movie quotes: When he voted, he talked to the camera about Frankie, "You're an absolute terminator, but tonight it's hasta la vista, baby." Indeed.
