With the loss of Russell Swan to a medical emergency on "Survivor: Samoa," Galu struggles to elect a new leader to replace him. "The events of today have only intensified the rivalry between the two tribes," Jeff Probst said at the last Tribal Council. "Foa Foa believes it had a moral victory and can turn this game around. Galu believes that even though they lost Russell, they can continue to dominate." The men of Galu also hatch a plan to keep them in the game. They bring Shambo into their confidence in a plan to put a puppet regime in power, hoping to forestall a blossoming female alliance.
