Survivor Island of the Idols episode 8 power rankings: Officially dateable

9. Karishma Patel

There was a time when Karishma looked to be on the outside looking in on Lairo. That remains true to this day in the game of Survivor: Island of the Idols, but at the merge, she finally has an opportunity to seek revenge. They will rue the day they didn’t all crowd around her as she sought medical attention after cutting herself down the bone that one time!

Still, even if she plans to go all-in on the plan of betrayal, it will be interesting to see how that can be achieved. Perhaps it will be the promise of taking out Dean that brings Karishma into the Vokai fold and establish dominance in numbers at the merge? It’s not like Vokai is hurting in numbers; Lairo went to Tribal Council a pitiful amount of times already.

Regardless, Karishma’s journey to winning this season involves somehow Dan and another goat sitting beside her; a seemingly impossible task that requires her to outperform her proven capabilities , and everybody else experiences edge case results. She’ll be used as a voting number for now.
