In Survivor season 47, episode 8, titled He's All That, Sierra was sent home, while Rachel discovered a secret immunity idol clue hidden in her food. Unaware of Rachel's idol, Genevieve, a Lavo tribe member, plotted to eliminate her, seeing her as a threat and assuming her allies wouldn't play idols to protect her. However, Sol, Rachel's ally, opposed the plan, having recently earned her trust by saving her in the previous round.

Genevieve, alongside her fellow Lavo members, decided to go after Sierra or Sam from Gata. Their plan succeeded because Sierra and Sam got the highest votes, as opposed to other members who wanted to go for Tuku's Caroline or Gabe. Fans of Survivor took to X and praised Genevieve's gameplay.

"OH MOTHER GENEVIEVE YOU TRULY RUN SURVIVOR47………," said one fan.

"Genevieve is such a smart player. She really has her pulse on the game. She's def making it to final 3," another fan said.
I LOVE how Genevieve portrays herself in her confessionals, we see her strategic thoughts but also she sneaks in little jokes and a grin. Parv and Kim would be proud," a third fan added.
"Genevieve reads are on point. Very smart cookie," another fan added.

Some fans of Survivor also pointed out the fact that Genevieve laughed when Andy didn't find any bundles of cash while taking one more for herself.

"Genevieve taking a scroll and trying to hide her laugh right as Andy walks by with 0," an X user added.
"GENEVIEVE REALLY SNATCHED THAT AFTER BEING LIKE 'oh you don’t have one yet'" another X user wrote.
"I think Rachel, Genevieve and Caroline are in the running of being some of the best strategic players of the new era (based on their edits so far)," said one.
"The way Genevieve is the godfather of the season.. she narrates and runs literally everything," another wrote.

Highlights of Survivor season 47 episode 8

For a task, the contestants of Survivor had to collect cash rolls lying around and had to use the money to buy the items listed on the menu. The goal was to spend as much as they could because the contestant with the highest amount of money at the end, would not get to vote. Only Jeff, the host knew how much each item cost.

Sam ended up with the most money, which cost him his vote. This nearly led to his elimination when he tied with Sierra in the first vote. However, in the re-vote, the majority chose to send Sierra home, saving Sam. The Lavo members—Genevieve, Sol, and Teeny—targeted Sam and Sierra from the Gata tribe, while non-Tuku players also set their sights on Sam and Sierra, casting just one vote for Gabe.

Kyle won the immunity again, alongside Sue, keeping them safe from the elimination. But because this was Kyle's consecutive immunity win, he thought it would make other players see him as a threat and they would be compelled to vote him off in the episodes ahead.


New episodes of Survivor season 47 come out on Wednesdays, at 8 pm ET, on CBS.
