Probst walks on stage in New York City. Our Final Three are all looking very nice all cleaned up. Even Li'l Russell, I guess. Although he's wearing a giant cross necklace to show us that he's not a horrible evil person because he loves God. As usual, Parvati looks better when she's not wearing a face full of makeup and those weird giant heavy lashes that cause her eyes to half-close like she's stoned. And Sandra, of course, looks amazing. Ew, we've got some former contestants/douchebags in the audience -- I see Charlie; also, that horrible woman from the same season who made fun of people's dead dads; and Johnny Fairplay, who has gained a lot of weight. Sandra's family is out in full force with their Puerto Rican flags, seated just in front of Parvati's creepy dad. There's Li'l Russell's wife, who is still apparently married to him despite everything and is dressed much classier than she was at the last reunion show. Probst revels in the applause for a while, then says -- as he does every season -- that this was "one of, if not the greatest season" of this show. Even though it wasn't.
Finally, Probst reads the votes. Parvati gets the first vote. Sandra gets the second. Parvati gets the third. Li'l Russell has to know by now that he did not get a single vote. Good. Try not to cry this time, loser. Sandra gets another vote, tying it at 2-2. Also, 0 for Li'l Russell. Parvati gets a third vote. Sandra gets a third vote. These are the votes we saw before, so now it's time to see who the winner is. "Two votes left," Prost says accidentally. There are three votes left, but now, thanks to his mistake, we know the next two votes are for the same person so there won't be a reason to read the third. And the next is for Sandra. Sure enough, she gets the fifth and the final one she needs to win this game again. Yay! Parvati gives her a hug, as does Li'l Russell, who may have finally learned something about being a good sport and leaving the game behind. Or maybe he just wants to be on camera some more. Sandra heads out to the audience to embrace her family. Hey, is that Uncle Fernando back there? And there's her hot husband, back from Afghanistan. And we get a shot of the folks in Sandra's hometown celebrating her SECOND victory. Woohoo! Norwalk, Connecticut! I love your aquarium! Of course, Rupert has to be front and center, giving Sandra a big loud hug. And out come the rest of the contestants. You have to love the boldness with which Stephenie deviates from the path I'm sure she was instructed to take, walking in front of the fire and next to Probst as he tries to talk to the camera and waving hugely at the audience, like they came out here to see her. Stephenie freaking loves herself.
