Rachel tells Ryan, Colie, Kelly Anne, and Johanna that Abram just told her he wants to go home.  There is something going on at work that could cost him a lot of money and he really needs to go home and take care of it, so they have to vote him off.  They are all really bummed because they really want to vote for Johnny and now they can't.  Abram is a great competitor and is always supportive of the girls.  He’d be great to be with them in the final challenge because he is so encouraging to them.  Rachel is bummed because she had her whole speech prepared to get rid of Johnny.

Rachel has an idea.  Instead of voting Abram off, they can vote off Johnny, Abram will win another key, and then if Abram quits on his own, he will now have two keys to give away.  This isn’t necessarily true, but it’s what they’re thinking. This is a much better idea than Johnny getting a hold of a key, so Rachel, Ryan, Ashli, Colie, Kelly Anne, and Johanna decide that this is the new plan and they are going to stick with it.  Robin, however is torn.  Abram has asked that they all send him home for personal reasons, so she doesn’t know how she will live with herself if they don’t grant him his wish.  She wants to go with her heart, but her heart might be selfish.  Ashli:  “This is a selfish game.  We’re all here for ourselves.” 

In OTF (which stands for On The Fly -- the shots you see of the castmembers talking directly to the camera), Kelly Anne is really torn about what to do.  Abram has asked them to send him home but there is nothing she would rather do than get Johnny off this island.  She doesn’t want to go against Abram’s wishes, but this is the first time the girls have included her in any kind of group plan, and she is afraid they’ll like her less if she doesn’t go along with the plan. 

So Abe is ditching the program today, what a bummer as I had hoped that he would stick it out.  He says he needs to get back to his house building project. What do you think? Did The Island get to him?
