After seeing contestants head home with immunity idols with them, we finally got to see someone use their immunity idol the right way when 'Survivor: Island of the Idols' returned on Wednesday night. Fans always love a legend and someone who knows how and when to play their immunity idol.

This was probably the only season where we witnessed more than one contestant go home with an immunity idol in their pocket. But on Wednesday night's episode of 'Survivor: Island of the Idols' season 39, Karishma made the ultimate move by playing her hidden immunity idol in the right time, and nullified seven votes that were thrown against her, and ended up sending Elizabeth home. 

Wednesday night's episode of 'Survivor: Island of the Idols' season 39 was quite an interesting one, right from Lauren plotting at the Island of the Idols to win immunity, Dean getting a taste of his own medicine when he assumed that the legacy note that Jamal gave him was real, to Elizabeth finally being sent home. But what stood out the most is the perfect blindside that Karishma pulled off when she used her hidden immunity idol that no one expected her to have. Taking to Twitter post the episode, fans couldn't help but rave about the move Karishma pulled off calling her a legend. 

Karishma was known as the underdog throughout the season, and to see her pull off that move, fans couldn't help but be proud of her. But they also hoped that she would have voted Dan out and not Elizabeth. Taking to Twitter a fan wrote, "Karishma the first person to play an idol correctly this season? Wow #Survivor." 

"karishma QUEEN finally broke the curse and played that idol correctly! the haters be quaking. NEVER underestimate anyone in survivor. everything is possible. periodt. hoping she could finally find her footing and win this game," wrote a fan. While another added, "KARISHMA TURNED INTO A LEGEND AND SAVED THE SEASON. Should've voted that creep ass Dan though but still. -ian." 

"Karishma played the idol perfect just wish Elizabeth would of went along with getting Dan out. Can’t believe he is still in the game #Survivor," shared a fan. Adding to that another said, "Karishma was the only contestant not manipulated by Lauren and Tommy’s plan. She’s also the only player to play her idol right for herself. Oh, and she got both Missy and Elizabeth out #survivor." 

"QUEEN KARISHMA REALLY MADE THAT AMAZING MOVE AND SENT ELIZABETH HOME. WE STAN A LEGEND. #Survivor," wrote a fan. While another shared, "I think we all wish Karishma would have taken Dan out, but being the first person in awhile to play an idol correctly (or just not being voted out with one in their pocket!) is still a great achievement. #QueenKarishma #survivor." 

'Survivor: Island of the Idols' season 39 airs every Wednesday night only on CBS. Check your local listings for more information.
