This week on Survivor, all hell breaks loose as the tribes are redistributed. "All hell" might be a slight exaggeration, but this episode is at least more interesting than what we've seen so far this season. Tom, Lex, and Kelly become members of Samburu, and Silas, Frank, and Teresa head over to Boran. Mark Burnett may be evil, but last night's split was the equivalent of distributing a warm, squirmy, bow-adorned puppy to every faithful watcher: the total screwing over of Playskool. The new Boran tribe coops twenty goats more quickly than Samburu and wins a bunch of chickens in the reward challenge, leading to a very busy Friday morning for PETA. For immunity, the excitement in the air is palpable...it's puzzle-time! Boran throws the challenge and talks a lot about voting off everyone except the one person they actually do vote off. His cover blown, Chip Gaither (a.k.a "Silas") gets sent back to Smallville.
