Day 24

Chaos has erupted on Rosetta Island. It started when the Stevivor tribes, the Murtagh tribe and the Shimata Tribe, participated in an immunity challenge. The challenge was to participate in a scavenger hunt for Family Matters memmoribilia on the island. While both tribes successfully found Urkel dolls, Family Matters trading cards, and the "Do the Urkel" board game, no one was able to find a box of Urkel-O's. Both tribes lost the challenge.

"This has yet to happen on the island," says Harriette, unofficial leader of the Shimata tribe. "It was a new situation for us. We had no idea what to do."

As their rules stated, the tribe who lost the challenge have to vote off one of their members. It was decided then that both tribes would vote a member off, and the member voted off with the most votes would return to Chicago with Steve Urkel.

But the problems escalated even more when a tie resulted between the two tribes. The Shimata tribe memebers unanimously voted against Maxine.

"Maxine had been acting a little weird lately," says Rachel. "Turns out that she had some alliance going on with Waldo for the rival tribe. She didn't want him to leave the island because they would be apart, so she had been secretly helping him in immunity challenges so he would look good to his tribe. Totally unacceptable."

Meanwhile, the Murtagh tribe unanimously voted off Eddie, who had been causing a lot of problems inside of the group. He already hit a nerve with Stefan several days ago for being so hard on little Richie and voting him off early. Waldo and Carl soon joined his side when Eddie starting playing leader of the tribe.

"It was decided early on that Carl was going to be the unofficial leader of our tribe," says Waldo. "But then all of a sudden, Eddie starts commanding everyone to do what he says. And it was because of his wrong commands that we lost the challenge."

"Eddie is really letting the island atmosphere get to his head," says Carl, "and it worries me. He's not himself anymore and it shows. After seeing Judy voting off, he was really afraid that the new straegy would be to vote off the Winslow children, and he's the only one in our tribe."

To solve this problem, in a few days, Eddie and Maxine will have to give speeches stating why they should not voted off. In the meantime, they must try to form alliances between both tribes to sway votes. Then both tribes will be forced to choose which one of the two to vote off.

"This should be very interesting," says Laura. "If we each vote the other tribe's member off, we'd be back in a tie. But, there seems to be a lot of tension within both tribes between the two that they want to vote off. It makes you wonder who's going to give in."

Who should be voted off: Eddie or Maxine? Vote this week in our special poll to break the tie.
