Episode Seven:

	Brandon had made the wrong decision.  Now he lost his only ally, and has two more people after him.  Getting any farther would take a good mixture of strategy, diverting votes away from him, and luck, pulling more high cards in the elimination challenge.  Brandon knows that even he isn't lucky enough to keep getting high cards.  He has only two more rounds to survive before the merge.  Then maybe he can find new allies to save him.  But this is not Survivor.  This is Cutthroat.  And all but one will have to be cut at some point.  Just one vote would send him to an elimination challenge, and everyone at the challenge is fair game.  Even if he gets a voting bloc of seven, his vote, and the other Sountun, against the five of Pekata(assuming an even merge occurs), it isn't the amount of votes that count, they only hinder.  Even if it were down to Sountun, him, and one more Pekata, luck can't protect him forever.  He will eventually pull a devistatingly low card against a lot of higher cards.  And Brandon hasn't been in possession of a bunny in a long time.
	Sountun is a happy tribe.  For once.  They are still two people shy of their opponents, but they had a plan, and it worked.  As long as the person Ken keeps voting for doesn't slip up, then the tribe is fine, and two more Pekata will go before the merge.

	Bunny Challnge:   The winning tribe gets 24 bunnies.  4 four each of Sountun or 3 for each of Pekata.  The tribes are each dealt a card to see who picked first(Aces are low).  Sountun beats out Pekata's Ace.
The game is this:  each tribe draws one card, then draws that number more cards(3 more cards for a three, 5 more cards for a 5, ect.).  If a face card is drawn, then they don't have to draw any more.  The tribes take turns.  Whoever draws the Ace of Spades loses.  The cards are only reshuffled together when an ace is drawn(other than the ace of spades).
Sountun first draws a 7.  Then 7 more cards:  King, 4, Jack, 2, 10, 3, 10.  Pekata's turn.
Two.  Then two more:  4, 9.
Sountun draws again.  7.  2,7,Queen, 5,5,8,3
Pekata draws a King.  They do not have to draw any more.
Sountun, a 9.  4,King, 9,3,10,Jack, Queen, Jack, 5.
The deck is getting thin, and the ace is growing near, but the other cards cannot be reshuffled, giving better odds until a safe ace is found.  Pekata draws a 6.  3,A, 6,A, Queen, 7.  They drew 2 aces, both red.
The cards are reshuffled.
Sountun gets a Queen, and does not have to draw any more.
Pekata gets a 2.  then a 9 and a 4.
Sountun, another Queen.
Pekata, an 8.  3,3,Jack,3,8,10,A,6.  The cards are reshuffled.
Sountun gets a ten.  They now have to deal the most cards possible in this game, and hope to not get the ace.  7,Jack, King, 6, 3,5,8,8,King, Ace of Spades.  if they had drawn a 9 instead of a 10, they could have won, but that last card was the Card of Death.  The Ace of Spades.  And Pekata finally wins some bunnies.

	Both tribes must now vote between them who they want out of the game.  Each player that gets any votes will have to compete against the other players with votes from both tribes in an elimination challenge.  For each vote they get, they will be penalized for the challenge.  They may use their bunnies to neutralize the votes counting against them for the challenge.  They may even use more bunnies to gain extra points, but they are advised to save enough for the rest of the game, as they have to earn more bunnies later.

Here are the votes:

Sountun:
Colby     .  Ken
Helen     .  Ken
Hunter    .  Ken
Kathy     .  Ken
Ken        .  Helen
Tom       .  Ken
Pekata:
Alicia      .  Brandon
Brandon  .  Jeff
Ethan     .  Brandon
Jake       .  Brandon
Jeff         .  Brandon
Tammy   .  Brandon
Teresa    .  Jeff
Tina        .  Jeff

The votes were cast, and the 4 players that had votes against them must compete against each other in a challenge to decide who will be the first person eliminated.  The game is high card.  Ace=1, Jack=11,Q=12,K=13.  For each vote a player received, they will lose one point of their score.  They may, however use their bunnies to buy extra points.  Whoever has the lowest score will be eliminated.

(bunnies)player(votes)
(50)Ken(5)
(2)Helen(1)
(3)Brandon(5)
(3)Jeff(3)

Ken used 8 bunnies, and started with +3
Helen used 1 bunny and started with 0
Brandon used 2 bunnies and started with -3
Jeff used 3 bunnies and started with 0

Now the cards:
Brandon(-3) + 2= -1
Ken(3) + 7 = 10
Jeff(0) + 4 = 4
Helen(0) + 7 = 7

The third person eliminated from Pekata:  Brandon
