Survivor: Cagayan - 'Sitting in my Spy Shack' Blog Party - April 23


Every week I've wondered if Tony's doings might be his undoing in the game. This week isn't any different. Perhaps it's even more likely that his paranoia and need to control the game will be his undoing tonight. We'll see.

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll post the major updates right in this post. Refresh the post to get the latest! As always, the real party will be in the comments area -- come watch the show with us!

The latest blog pool standings from that Lively and Lovely Lifeguard Laurie:

Pool People
Jefra Bland - David, Sharon S.
Jeremiah Wood - LostChyld
Kass McQuillen -Delee, MikesGirl
Spencer Bledsoe - Becky and Monty924
Tasha Fox - DKNYNC, Rochelle
Tony Viachos - Lynn1, Zoetawny
Trisha Hegarty - Jackie
Woo Hwang - Laurie, SueGee

Jury People
Sarah Lacina
Morgan McLeod
LJ McKanas

Survivor fans ready?

Tony makes himself a spy shack, reminding me of Tom Sawyer sneaking back to check out his own funeral.

Reward challenge has them divided into two teams of four. They have to row out, collect paddles, solve a puzzle. Tasha, Jefra, Spencer and Jeremiah are on one team. The other is Woo, Tony, Trisha and Kass. Reward is a picnic style lunch with chicken and chocolate chip cookies (amongst other things).

Tasha, etc. win reward. It's set in a stunning cave. The rewards crowd try to bring Jefra into their alliance and they all agree Tony needs to go. Oh! Jefra got a letter from her mother! Tears, tears. It's a SIGN! A final four pact is made.

Immunity Challenge time! Stand on a narrow beam while balancing a ball. Move to a more narrow beam. Last person standing wins. It's down to Woo, Tasha and Spencer. Woo is down. Tasha wins!

Tony knows he's in trouble. He scrambled looking for "iconic landmarks" for the hidden idol with special powers. And ... he found it. I swear he almost wet his pants!

The Tony alliance draws Jefra back into the fold. Silly Jefra tells Jeremiah.  Jeremiah lets go with his big secret that he's a fashion model. @@ Spencer tells Tash and Jeremiah that he has an idol.

Spencer plays his idol.



Votes: Woo, Woo, Woo, Jeremiah, Jeremiah, Jeremiah, Jeremiah, 

Jeremiah is gone.

Tony pretended he had a fake idol.

Hi Jackie & Penny

Petals said...

~*~*~*~*~*~ SPLASH ~*~*~*~*~*~

Hey Jackie & everyone!

I have hot spinach artichoke dip and several crusty baguettes.

Jackie S. said...

Hello, Penny! Looks like we're off to a quiet start tonight!

lynn1 said...

I have taco salad tonight

Petals said...

Tony is sure a fast talker.

Nickelpeed said...

What a snake in the grass. LOL

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Lynn, hi Petals.

monty924 said...

Hi everyone. Sleepy and mentally exhausted here. I'm the official lurker at the pool tonight. Have fun, everyone.

~~~ sliding in on a floatie in the deep end~~~

Oh, someone check on me if it appears that I'm unconscious later in the show. ;-)))

Petals said...

Oh gimme a break, Tony. You are a practiced peeper, obviously.

lynn1 said...

Tony reminds me of a cockroach

Petals said...

Hi Penny, Lynn, Monty :)

Is it me, or is there just really no one for whom to root? I mean, there are several that I don't hate, but none that I love. I usually love or hate at least a couple of people by this far in to a season.

Nickelpeed said...

Cone on Jeremiah, Spencer, Tasha, Jeffra!!!!

Petals said...

That water is so blue it looks fake, wow wow wow

Nickelpeed said...

Yes, yes, lose Tony!!!!

lynn1 said...

I really don't like Tony and he is my pool pick and I am not a fan of Jaffra

Petals said...

So, Monty ~ you are in a spy shack? LOL

Nickelpeed said...

No Apari, no Apari, no Apari!!!!!

Petals said...

Taco salad, mmmm. I am craving Mexican lately

Joe in NY said...

Hi folks

Nickelpeed said...

I really, really do not want Tony to win. I really don't.

Nickelpeed said...

Dang it. Kass is too smart.

Petals said...

worth fighting for

Nickelpeed said...

Woooooooohooooooooo!

Becky said...

Hey, Jackie and everyone eating or floating around. I will be lurk floating too.

Jackie, thank you for hosting. I don't think I have been saying thank you at the end of the past couple of shows. So thank you ahead of time.

Joe in NY said...

I would like to see Kass's "Brains" credentials

Petals said...

awww, I wanted Woo to win, but not Tony or Kass.

Petals said...

Hi Becky, hey Joe!

Joe, exactly. Bespeckled doesn't always mean brains.

Nickelpeed said...

Well, Tony, you did give them a reason to not trust you.

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Joe.

Jackie S. said...

I'd like to kick them all off and go for a quiet vacation on that beach!

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Becky. You holding up? I know it's been hard. My prayers are always with you.

Petals said...

Jackie - GREAT idea. Looks like a postcard.

Nickelpeed said...

He is so, so annoying. I hope it all back fires on him.

Petals said...

OMG, Trish is ... ripped (but not in a good way) Yikes girl.

Nickelpeed said...

If he finds that idol...I am going to be very suspicious of someone giving him clues.

Nickelpeed said...

Gosh Jackie, you are so right. I'd love to just go there and take in the beauty and quietness. LOL

Petals said...

wow. beautiful.

Nickelpeed said...

These guys need to talk strategy. They really do.

Good for you Jeffra, you need to start thinking.

Petals said...

Jephra wasn't "toad" about the vote. Trish & Kass weren't toad about it either.

lynn1 said...

Now that I see Jaffra thinking I will cut her some slack and take her off my don't like list.

monty924 said...

I think hunters call it a blind. That's me tonight. My brain won't let me comment beyond this. It would all be jiberish or however you say that... See?

lynn1 said...

I would be OK with any of the four who are enjoying the reward picnic winning the whole shebang.

Nickelpeed said...

Yeah, I do not object anyone who went on the reward. Jeffra was making me mad because she just couldn't "see" where she was with the other group. Kass just makes me mad.

Joe in NY said...

I'm shocked that Jeffra would go out so early.

Nickelpeed said...

Hope Tony goes next

Nickelpeed said...

Good. Not too bad. Even if Woo wins, I guess it's okay. Rather see one of the others, though

Nickelpeed said...

Make it Woo next. Please, please.

Nickelpeed said...

I'm actually impressed with Tasha and Spencer.

Petals said...

Woo is the only one I want to win.

Nickelpeed said...

Yay...Tasha and Spencer.

Sorry, I talk too much!!!

Nickelpeed said...

I like Woo, too, Petals, but I do not want him to win right now until he switches sides. He really needs to switch sides. Tony wants him out, too. He really does not want him in the finals.

We'll see what Jeffra does tonight.

lynn1 said...

I hope Tony goes

monty924 said...

My pool boy is Spencer so I'm rooting for him automatically.

Becky said...

Yeah, Penny, today was a better day. Momma was awake and alert (even if the "alert" meant she was confused and we couldn't figure out half the time what she was talking about. What was wonderful was seeing the friends she has made pay attention, listen closely and comeup with reasonable replies. She drank most of my coke a bottle of water, a health shake, a yougert and ice cream AFTER she ate a full plate of food. If any of you ever have an elderly person who doesn't want to eat, here is a hint. If they are not a diabetic sprinkle a little sugar on it. A nurse told me that. The taste for sweets is the last to go.

As far as the other problem I am facing, nothing new to report on that. DH had a AKG and a doppler om his neck to see if his heart is strong enough for a biopsy. BTW, I apologize for posting off topic, but I am begging for prayers for my husband. I just don't know how I would get through the past two years without him.

Jackie S. said...

Tasha and Spencer are the real forces to be reckoned with more so than Tony, I think.

Jackie S. said...

Sorry to hear that, Becky. You know you have my prayers!

Petals said...

I mean, Tony is such a FAN that he is trying so hard to win-by-cunning, he is shooting himself in the foot. Not every aspect of Survivor involves deception, you know?

Nickelpeed said...

Like I said, if he gets this, someone is telling him where these are. JMO

Nickelpeed said...

Dang it, this guy is the luckiest guy around. Darn it!!!

He is being told. There is no way!!

lynn1 said...

Crapola

monty924 said...

OMG, I'm awake and shouting. I really don't like Tony. People are comparing him to Russell and there is no comparison to me.

Nickelpeed said...

(((Becky))) My heart aches for you. Prayers always.

Petals said...

oh great. @@ Looks like Tony is sticking around a while.

lynn1 said...

I could respect Russell's game play but tony is a jackass

Nickelpeed said...

This is so irritating. Man, make it Tony. Dang, it could force him to use the idol. Darn it!!!

Petals said...

Penny, I was thinking the same thing: what a coincidence that Tony finds the "special" idol on the very night he needed it.
Jackie, has there EVER been an idol with that "use after the vote" power?

Petals said...

abeddaabbedaabedda

I just Googled him; yup. He's hot.

(but not my type)

Petals said...

It shocks the H outta me that LJ was "beauty"

Petals said...

Woo is more beautiful

monty924 said...

Becky, HUGS!!!

Lorraine said...

I agree that Tony is being favored. Someone is leading him to these idols. I'm so sick of them focusing on Tony. Can't stand him.

Nickelpeed said...

They like the idea that Tony brings excitement to the game. I can see them telling Tony where the idol is. It's just too coincidental.

Jackie S. said...

First time, Petals. I don't find it suspicious, though.

Nickelpeed said...

They voted Jeremiah...dang.

Nickelpeed said...

What a jerk

Petals said...

What a pompous ass! He is the typical a$$hole cop. @@

Joe in NY said...

You can hate Tony all ya want, but he did totally outfox Spencer right there.

Petals said...

oh no! Not Woo

Nickelpeed said...

Bummer. Dang it. They didn't get the clue when the others said they're going by who they think had the immunity idol. This sucks.

Joe in NY said...

Prayers for you, Becky. So sorry.

Petals said...

What the eff?

Becky said...

At least Spencer is there for three more days. Goodbye everyone.

Thanks, Jackie

Joe in NY said...

Here we go with the conspiracy theories. Game Show rules folks. All of these shows have compliance officers.

monty924 said...

Why they aren't targeting Tony on the down low is beyond me.

I crawled out of the deep end. Night folks.

Thanks Jackie and will see everyone next week.

Nickelpeed said...

Well, at this point, Spencer and Tasha do not have a chance to make it through unless there is a miracle.

Ugh.

Thank you for hosting, Jackie.

See everyone Sunday. I work next Wednesday, so won't be here.

Have a great week everyone!!

lynn1 said...

Becky my thoughts and prayers are with you. My Mom has Alzheimer's and has lived in a memory care facility for more than 10 years. She has no clue who I am but she is usually happy to see me,

Nickelpeed said...

You are right, Joe. Rules

Joe in NY said...

Honestly, I don't like Tony on a personal note. He's too cop-cocky. But I've got to respect his game. He's been IN the game for like 30 straight days. That is hard to do.

It might annoy MOnty, but I do see the Russell comparison. Russell played very open, very cocky, and very aggressively.

Jackie S. said...

What Joe said. Tony is probably going to do himself in. But he IS playing a good game in many aspects. Finding that idol, he used common sense looking for the kind of place they tend to hide idols.

lynn1 said...

Thanks Jackie. Night everyone

Jackie S. said...

Thank you all for coming by!

Petals said...

Thanks to Jackie.
Hugs for Becky.
ZZzzzzz for Monty.
XOXOXOXs for everyone!
