As a seasoned Survivor enthusiast who has weathered countless tribulations and twists since the show’s inception, I must say that this week’s episode was nothing short of a masterclass in narrative storytelling. The writers, editors, and producers truly outdid themselves as they mercilessly dismantled Rome Cooney’s ego in a manner reminiscent of the Colosseum’s lions devouring an overconfident gladiator.
In essence, the show Survivor thrives on an element of unpredictability. Normally, the scriptwriters establish numerous plotlines within each episode which later converge as the contestants approach Tribal Council, resulting in two or three possible outcomes. This week, though, the usual pattern was disrupted and instead posed the question: “How many times can they poke fun at this one contestant during a 38-minute segment?” The response to this query was surprisingly frequent. Effectively, it felt like Rome had fallen under repeated attacks.
Observe, the contestant Rome Cooney, who has caused trouble throughout the season, is characterized as an arrogant and aggressive individual. He’s been known to stalk his fellow Red Tribe member Sol Yi, denying him personal space, and then making threats towards him under the guise of an “ultimatum.” His behavior is boastful, malicious, and seemingly enjoys causing distress among other contestants. Such actions set the stage for a fall from grace. However, we didn’t anticipate his downfall would unfold in such an unexpected manner.
In this outstanding episode, nearly everything Rome says is contradicted by the cut in the editing. The initial point of interest comes when Rome boasts that, following a lengthy discussion with his latest target, Kyle from Blue Tribe, he now possesses enough information to betray Kyle. However, this assertion is swiftly undermined as Sol informs other contestants, “This is how Rome operates.” It’s clear that Kyle wishes Rome gone and manages to rally everyone against him. Typically, such early agreement among the tribe to eliminate one person would be a decoy. But in this case, it’s no misdirect.
As the contestants prepare for Tribal Council, I, being Rome, subtly sow seeds of doubt among them, suggesting that Sol will be voted off. Each one of them, to my face, denies this, but I can see the gleam in their eyes as they lie. To the camera, Sam expresses his admiration for me: “You keep throwing Sol’s name around, Rome.” Then, the scene shifts back to me, boasting about my Survivor deity status. “I’ll be feasting on Sol’s bones tonight,” I proclaim with a satisfied grin. “Everything seems to be falling in my favor, and it feels fantastic.
At the Tribal Council, as Rome delved into another soliloquy, Jeff Probst interjected and asked him to move seats and take on the role of the Survivor host. Rome complied, then expressed his affection for hosting and commentating, admitting that Probst had his dream job. Five contestants were shown writing down Rome’s name during voting. Andy, in German, stated, “I like you, but your game was really poor.” Despite the lack of tension, Rome continued to exhibit arrogance, convinced that the vote would be for Sol. He chose to stir things up by not voting for him. In a surprising turn of events, Probst announced the votes, and it seemed like a act of compassion. “That hurts,” Rome said upon elimination. However, the show doesn’t want viewers to sympathize with him. Farewell, Rome. You provided entertaining moments during the pre-merge phase.
