	Cirie	“	(voting against Rob) Why did I have to go first? Well, here goes nothing.	”

	Rob	“	(voting against Cirie) This is just a backup in case an idol gets played.	”

	Parvati	“	(voting against Rob) You tried to blindside me on my birthday? I’m not mad, I’m just disappointed.	”

	Tony	“	(voting against Rob) Rob, I’m so sorry, man, but you interfered with the mission the Americans were sent here to accomplish.	”

Final Words

	Rob	“	World tribe decided to blindside me. I can kind of understand why. Um, massive threat in the game. I was the only thing standing between them and the Australians and now they will be sliced apart. I truly thought they had brains in them to realise that the only way to beat the Australians is to work together as a team. I can 100% guarantee an Aussie will win Sole Survivor now, without a shadow of doubt.	”
