Save the best for last~ Good afternoon Your Majesties and congratulations to all of you for making it to Final Tribal Council! I hope you guys are up for magical evening because I have three fairy tales to share with you tonight. :] Each legend is a representation of your gameplay and how you're being perceived by the jury. Now let's take a dive under the sea, shall we?!

Shariel - The Lifeless Mermaid


Shariel was a beautiful red-headed mermaid with a yellow clam bra, dissatisfied with sea life and curious about the human world. Her problem was that she didn't have the courage to go out and explore it. Shariel was always searching for human treasures such as dinglehoppers or maybe a joint to smoke, which made her seem out of focus. One day a huge storm rolled in and Shariel watched as a prince fell off a huge ship. She was able to pull Prince Jimmy, whose only article of clothing was a yellow speedo, to shore and save him. She swam away afterwards, fearing what a human would think of a mermaid, but was desperate to see him again. Ursulafana pulled a depressed Shariel aside with eight of her slimy tentacles and struck a deal with her. She said that she would give Shariel magic legs in exchange for her freedom of speech. Ursulafana also included that she had to receive a kiss of true love from Prince Jimmy or else she would turn back into a mermaid and had to follow her orders forever. Shariel agrees to this and she finally was able to introduce herself to Jimmy. They went on a romantic boat ride and took a lot of snapchats together, but in the end she wasn't able to get that kiss and returned to her mermaid form. She had magical mermaid capabilities, but she couldn’t use them to her advantage because Ursulafana's spell was too strong and she was thrown in a coral cell. Shariel refrained from doing anything in order to get herself out of this situation so she rotted there and got so fat that her mermaid tail combusted - THE END. :<

Shannon: When I think about our time together, I remember our little scuffle in which I said "you're next" meaning I was going to do everything in my power to get you out had we not swapped tribes. The truth was you were never next because no one felt threatened by you and they thought they could drag you to the end and beat you. You were really nice though, but I feel like you didn't make your mark on this game. You're perceived as a sheep that didn't make any moves for herself and people believe that you just voted whoever Estefana did until you undoubtedly cut her, which I do applaud you for. You abstained from several challenges and that pains me to see because if I were in your position, I would've given my 110% effort. What I will say is that you were able to outlast the nine of us on the jury even when all your original Malama tribe members were voted out premerge and I'm proud of you for that. It's been awhile since we talked, but I don't have a problem with you and I enjoy your cute snapchats. 💛

Questions for Shannon: I abstain from this portion of my speech, but there are some questions below that you can answer.



Mailan


Thousands of years ago in ancient Vietnam, there lived a clever and kindhearted young girl named Mailan. The Kyrenians—consisting of Brittany, Craig, Estefana, and Rob—had invaded Vietnam. The Emperor had ordered that one man from every family must join the Imperial Army and since Mailan's father, Fa Pris, was injured she felt responsible for upholding the family honor. She used a sword to cut her hair short and she knew she had to become a cutthroat backstabber to be of assistance in this war. She put on her father's warrior clothes. Mailan, now dressed as a young man by the name of Ming, jumped onto her father's horse, Stef. She joined the Imperial Army where Shalex and the other soldiers believed she was a man! Shalex taught his soldiers strength and discipline. Mailan struggled to keep up and Shalex told her to go home. But to earn the soldiers' respect, Mailan retrieved an immunity idol inside Eddie Ratchet's ass. This was the hardest training task of all, and Mailan had done it! Mailan had been injured after finding the idol and whist caring for her wound, Shalex realized that "Ming" was a woman and he felt betrayed by her. A dragon named Shanshu, sent from the Ancestors to be her guardian, and a cricket named Jim-Mee were always at Mailan's side. Working together, they wrote a fake letter ordering Shalex and his soldiers to go after the Kyrenians. Heeding the letter's message, Shalex led his soldiers into the mountains where they were surrounded by thousands of Kyrenians. Mailan got a little erratic and grabbed a cannon and, using Shanshu's flame, lit the fuse. The cannon caused a massive avalanche of snow to fall on the Kyrenians, but snow also raced down toward Mulan and her friends. Snow was about to bury Shalex and instead of pulling him to safety, Mailan left him to die because she couldn't let her secret identity come out. As she sat with Stef, Shanshu, and Jim-Mee, Mailan felt she had failed her family and herself. Then she heard the Kyrenians voices and Mailan raced to the Imperial City to warn everyone, but no one would believe her. The Kyrenia leader, Britt-Yu, kidnapped the Emperor, but Mailan was able rescued him. Furious, Britt-Yu chased Mulan onto the palace roof - exactly as she planned and Shanshu lit a firework that knocked Britt-Yu the fuck out. The Kyrenians had been banished and the Imperial City was safe!

Mai: You have a lot of blood on your hands from backstabbing quite a few people, including someone you formed a final 2 with. You haven't shown loyalty to anyone except for maybe Shannon who you said you weren't even close with and you flip flopped between sides this whole game. You spouted out lie after lie and your game was blown up including you getting exposed for having an idol when I was eliminated. You didn't play savvily or sneakily the way a strategic player should if they want to win this game. Your game was a hot mess to say the least.



When this game started, I put you first before anybody else and apparently you didn't even know this. During the premerge, I felt like you didn’t have a backbone and you only followed Alex for the most part. I respect that you tried to make a move with the fake idol to save Priscilla, but you were also the reason I felt wary that vote and I had played the real Troodos idol. I didn't focus on the fake idol play after that all went down and I still really wanted to work with you. Your game really deteriorated once we hit the merge and I felt that you didn't want to talk to me. I didn't believe you when you said you were voting for me to stay and I thought you voted me out until Eva told me that she did at Ponderosa. I do feel like your game picked up a little after the blow up and you were able to survive all the way until the end. You were able to get Estefana to turn on Brittany, and Shannon to turn on Estefana instead of you which I thought was pretty good on your part. Your strategic game is being underestimated because your social game sucked so much that it might be what costs you this game, Aubry style. I also wanted to add that I did notice you came close to winning a few challenges, but you kept coming up short. I was honestly rooting for you when this game began and I still find myself wanting you to take this win. 💜

Questions for Mai:

1) What could you have done to play this game more sharply so that you wouldn't have been exposed?

2) Do you think you would be here at Final Tribal Council if Jimmy didn't self-vote at final 8 and do you understand why people thought you might've gotten lucky?

3) Where did your loyalty lie for each vote?

Cinderally


Once upon a time, there was a kind girl named Cinderally. All of the animals loved her, especially two rats named Eva and Rob. She lived with her wicked stepmother and with her two stepsisters, Shanastasia and Maizella. They were very mean to Cinderella, making her work all day in order for her to reside in the castle. Cinderella's stepmother, Lady Goulding, was threatened by Cinderella’s charm and beauty. She enjoyed giving Cinderella extra chores to do, such as scrubbing her dirty feet or bathing her cat, Lucifana. One day, Cinderally received a special invitation to a royal twerk battle at the palace! The King wanted his son, Prince Alex, to find a bride. Every young woman in the kingdom was invited—including Cinderally, but she didn't have an ass to twerk. Cinderally was determined to go to that ball though so she did 160 squats a day and her mice friends found a fabulous gown for her to wear. Lady Goulding didn't want Cinderally to go to the batlle because she wanted Alex to marry one of Shanastasia or Maizella. When the stepsisters found out about the dress, not only did they rip it to shreds, but they burned Cinderally's weave on the stove and they kicked her ass, knocked her the fuck out. Cinderally ran away to the garden to cry when suddenly, her fairy godmother Brittany appeared. "We're cool for the summer!" said the Fairy Godmother with a wave of her wand, she turned the Demi Flopvato CD Cinderally was holding into an elegant tour bus. She was now wearing a beautiful gown and sparkling glass slippers. But all of this came with a warning: When the clock struck midnight, the magic spell would wear off! At the battle, Cinderally twerked as hard as she could and even though Prince Alex beat her the night was a dream come true for Cinderally. Before too long, the clock began to strike midnight. "Good-bye!" Cinderally said, hurrying away because she didn’t want to look ratchet in front of the Prince. Her weave was already starting to get frazzled. "Guuurl, I'm a power bottom!" called the Prince. "I don't even know yo' name!" As Cinderally fled, she climbed up the stairs on some ninja shit, leaving a glass slipper behind in the process.



The Prince sent Sir Toby to find the girl who fit the glass slipper. Lady Goulding locked Cinderally in the attic, but Rob and Eva freed her. Sir Toby had already tried fitting the slipper on Shanastasia and Maizella's fat feet, but they both couldn't fit it. Once Cinderally appeared, he put the slipper on her foot and it fit perfectly.



Ally: When I first met you, I thought you were a cool girl and I wanted to get to know you better. Little did I know that you were the one trying to plot my demise and subtract my ass out of the equation. I genuinely wanted to work with you and it kind of sucks that you had preconceived notions about me, but I completely understand your reasons for wanting to target me and I had so much fun trying to make it impossible for you do to do so. ;) I did prove my loyalty to you and the rest of the alliance by voting out Priscilla even though I didn't want to. Unlike Mai, you were able to get away with murder and everyone believed you were innocent, but I knew that you were a little devil spawn all this time that needed to be voted out. As I was getting to know you I realized that you were socially dynamic and I started warning people that you would be a social threat. It turns out that I was right lol. I didn't like when Alex was giving you the benefit of the doubt during the Priscilla vote and I felt like you got closer to him than I did which is why I started targeting you both. You should honestly be bowing down to me right now because if I had played the Malama idol 5 minutes earlier you would have gotten 11th place, remember that little biscuit. The line that you quoted from the Ellie song happens to be my favorite part so good job! I feel like your social game shined through your speech and you made a lot of genuine bonds, but you need to stop kissing ass because it's disgusting, xo. 💙

Questions for Ally:

1) Who did you feel like your closest allies were throughout the game?

2) Do you regret any decisions that you've made? If so, what would you have done differently?

3) Was there any situation in which we could have worked together?

Questions/Tasks for ALL of You:

1) What was the biggest move you think you've made in this game?

2) If we were to go on a date, where would we go and what would we do? :D

3) Assign a color, fruit, and edgic rating to each member of the jury!

It’s up to you three to decide how your story arc ends and if you think that your tale was misrepresented then please argue why it was.

I just wanted to say thank you so much to the hosts for putting this amazing season together and for letting me play again as a favorite! I've had a blast getting to know all of you and I enjoyed playing on such a cutthroat season. I'm really going to miss talking to all of you everyday and I hope that we can be friends once this is over. :,) I'm sorry that you all had to deal with me for a month and I legit don't have a problem with any of you. I hope that you have a great rest of the summer and I'll see y'all next time! <3
