Survivor fans ready?  

Fourteen are left, who will be voted out tonight?

Joe is in his glory. He's just so smart (and crazy). Just ask him. Although, that said, I think Alan was a good one to go last week.

On Yawa, they think that Ben might have a bit of PTSD because he jumped when some bamboo exploded in their fire. The show goes on to touch our heartstrings with Ben's story of his military service, how it affected him and his hopes for the future. 

Reward Challenge time. Feet tied together, arms tied, slither a ball through the sand, shoot basket. Iced coffee, pastries, coffee and tea for the first place. Second place iced coffee container. Chrissy and Lauren sit out. 

Dang. Ryan loses the ball for his tribe not once, but twice now! Eep. Third time.

Levu wins first place. Yawa takes second place.

The win seems to be bringing Levu together. Devon is onto Joe, though. He wants to work with Ashley still. They think that Joe thinks he's in control. He kind of is, I'd say.

On Yawa, Ryan is apologetic. He tells us he needs to concentrate on his strength -- his social game. Roark wants to work her way in with the others. Ali seems receptive. Ryan is stuck in the middle between his allies -- Chrissy and Ali. Neither of the women will work together.

Lauren, and Ben to a lesser extent, notice that Cole is a slob. While manners aren't a big thing on the island, he's worse than most. Mike is digging for an idol. And, he has it! He found it in front of Jessica. 

Immunity Challenge time. Swim out to bats, get bags of rice, get bags through obstacle, maneuver balls through a maze with ropes -- much like the ones we've seen lately on BB. 

Yawa wins Immunity! Uh-oh, Chrissy is holding back her tribe. Levu wins Immunity. Gah. I like both Chrissy and Ryan. I want them to stay in this for a while longer! 

Chrissy tries to ally with Roark. But Roark isn't all that keen on the idea. Chrissy thinks she'll have to create an imaginary girls alliance that is targeting JP so that Roark (strongest female) would get targeted. Ryan and JP seem to be in on the blindside. But we'll see. Meanwhile, Ali and Roark want Chrissy to go home. Ryan is ending up in the swing vote position. 

Time for the Tribal Council. Ali is already throwing Chrissy under the bus. 

Chrissy and Roark vote for each other. We'll see how it goes.

The tally:
Chrissy, Roark, Chrissy, Roark, Roark.

Roark is gone!

monty924 said...

I'd rather have iced tea, but I'm sure they'll love the coffee

Anonymouse said...

JP just picked Ryan up like a ragdoll and tossed him on the mat

Nickelpeed said...

I just do not like Joe. Dang it. Of all people to get the award, Joe gets it. UGH. I do like the others on the tribe, though.

monty924 said...

Yeah, Petals. We have two weeks of cold weather and a lot of rain in the forecast. :(((

Jackie S. said...

Yes, Ryan is the bellhop.

Nickelpeed said...

They can heat up the iced coffee if they want.

Mouse, I noticed that. JP just picked him up and moved like a chess piece!! LOL

Glenn Allen said...

Hi suegee1 I am glad that Ryan did not give up!

SueGee said...

So glad to get out just ahead of the bad weather, but I came home to a heatwave!

Anonymouse said...

It was like he was moving trash out of the way

Petals said...

Glad you made it home safely Squueeeg.

Nickelpeed said...

Yeah, it's pretty lousy weather, isn't it, Monty! Need everything to keep warm.

Nickelpeed said...

Hi SueGee, how was the vacation?

Ed in Ohio said...

Wonder if they get to keep the fancy cups?

monty924 said...

Hey SueGee... good to see you home safe and sound. I'd take your heatwave right now, LOL

Ed in Ohio said...

I think Ryan is headed home

Petals said...

Like last season, I am really loving the wildlife photography.

SueGee said...

Vacation was un and I got to see lots of friends and relatives. Also brought back tons of pictures that are from the olden days! Gonna be busy scanning and sharing with family,

Ed in Ohio said...

Bad table manners!

Nickelpeed said...

Ha! She's finding another to complain about. LOL. Cole is eating like a slob, though. LOL

Petals said...

I don't dislike Mike.

monty924 said...

Doc gets the idol

Nickelpeed said...

I like Mike, I'm glad he found it.

Petals said...

YAY!

Petals said...

wow - did you guys see that Alexa commercial? Very Jetsons;I'm not sure if I want it or fear it.

SueGee said...

I'm ready for some apple pie and ice cream if there is any left

Nickelpeed said...

This is not an easy one. Come on Ryan's team. Oh no, Ryan's not playing. Yikes.

Anonymous said...

Oh, SueGee (Squeegee lol), here’s a big helping!!

Anonymouse said...

God I hope Joe goes

Anonymous said...

Another great challenge!!

Anonymouse said...

JP is a team of 1

Nickelpeed said...

I don't like Joe, but I'm afraid if they don't Dev will be gone.

Nickelpeed said...

Come on Chrissy. This does not look good for Soko.

monty924 said...

Very Big Brother like challenge

SueGee said...

There will be another shake-up next week if the tribes are 5 - 5 & 3

Anonymouse said...

Chrissy or Ryan?

Nickelpeed said...

I'm hoping Ryan doesn't get sent home.

Glenn Allen said...

Hopefully Ryan doesn't go home. Chrissie would not let someone else do the maze!

monty924 said...

Chrissy should probably go but will she?

Petals said...

so who goes?

Nickelpeed said...

Someone better try to find the idol. Time to look by the water hole. LOL.

Nickelpeed said...

No, no, nooooooooooo not Ryan or JP. But who? There are more women than men, that could happen. They could send a guy home. Chrissy is good. Good lie.

Anonymous said...

Hmm

Anonymouse said...

Don't fall for it Ryan

Anonymouse said...

Getting rid if Chrissy keeps Ryan in control

Nickelpeed said...

The thing is, though. Chrissy is the weakest link. But is it better to get rid or Roark or Chrissy? Uhmmmmmm

Ed in Ohio said...

Looks like it will be Chrissy

Petals said...

I have to go! see you next week.

Happy Halloween. ♥🎃

Nickelpeed said...

Jeff really is a trouble maker. LOL

Nickelpeed said...

Oh no, Petals. Have a good week!!

Ed in Ohio said...

Trick or Treat Petals!!

Anonymouse said...

Now Ryan might think they are fake fighting

Anonymous said...

Bye, Petals!!

Nickelpeed said...

Well, you know, if the women had decided to go with all women alliance, they could have gotten one of the guys out. But, they won't. The women never stick together.

Anonymouse said...

Good night Petals. Thanks for the Stella

Nickelpeed said...

I agree Mouse. They could be play fighting.

SueGee said...

Night Petals!!

monty924 said...

Could be Roark

Nickelpeed said...

This group needs to look for an idol by the well. LOL

monty924 said...

Dang

Anonymouse said...

Dumb Ryan

Nickelpeed said...

Chrissy should not look so smug. Really, she shouldn't. She's weak at playing.

Anonymous said...

Roark, you weren’t the swing vote....

monty924 said...

Ryan did that so they could keep the fake idol advantage. UGH

monty924 said...

Well, everyone have a Happy Halloween and will see you all next week!!

Thanks Jackie!

Nickelpeed said...

I agree Mouse. They should have gotten rid of Chrissy.

Jackie, thank you so much for hosting us. It's very much appreciated. See every one next week. Have a great week and weekend!

Jackie S. said...
