Survivor fans ready?

We start with Day 9 at Coco ... actually night. They are returning from Tribal. Cassidy knows the vote for her was from either Geo or Ryan. Geo pretty much blamed Ryan although admitting he voted for her. Cassidy says that both of the men think they're running the tribe, but aren't.

Baka Day 10 -- Searching for hidden idols. Elie and Jeanine are hunting. Jeanine finds the Beware Advantage which happens to be covered in ants. Elie convinces her that they could do what they want without her vote. So, she opens the advantage. It's the same bead collection advantage we saw with the other two tribes. Owen catches them looking at it and they pretty much have to show it to him. Now he's thinking he might want to align with them. Elie tells Sami.

After Jeanine gets all the beads, Sami tells Gabler -- the one she's bound to target. Due to having all the beads, she now has an immunity idol.

Day 11 we have the Immunity Challenge. Four tied together, through stick obstacles, more obstacles, bucket of water, teeter-totter, fill bucket at end, go back for more water, gate falls when bucket is full, roll balls up a ramp, three must remain at top. Reward is large tarp for first, smaller tarp for second. Karla sits out and Gabler sits out.

VESI wins Immunity! Baka wins second Immunity! Unfortunately, Ryan had knocked his balls off the top rung and blew it for his tribe. He tells us he did it on purpose because he wants to vote out Cassidy.

Vesi picks Geo and Jeanine to go on a "journey." Jesse goes from Vesi.

Coco Day 11. Ryan apologizes for losing the challenge. He wants Cassidy to think he's going home. James thinks they should take out Ryan. Ryan is clueless that he might be the target. Meanwhile, all the women see right through him.

The chosen three are on a boat to an island ... oops, went by the island. They end up on a boat which they have to row to the island. They have the same Risk/No Risk opportunity as the others had. All three Risked it.

Back to camp, Jesse tells us there's no use lying to them. He opens his shell in front of all. He lost his vote and now they all know it. 

Jeanine opens hers alone. She lost her vote, too. She tells them she risked it and then "opens" it in front of them. 

Geo tells Karla what happened. He got an advantage -- he can ask someone if they have an idol or advantage and they cannot lie to him. While everything is going on, Cassidy is getting paranoid much like Lindsay did last week.

Tribal Council time! Jeff asks Cassidy if she feels momentum. She said it was a bit lost but can come back. Ryan says the challenge started with momentum, but he dropped the ball. Jeff keeps asking questions about Ryan throwing himself on the sword and being the easy vote.

Geo votes Cassidy.

The tally: Cassidy, Cassidy, Geo, Geo, Geo. Goodbye, Geo.

He's shocked. Karla keeps whispering she's sorry while James looks a bit smug.

Hi Jackie and Petals and Penny!

Nickelpeed said...

H Petals and Glenn!

Nickelpeed said...

Loose lips sink ships. Why tell every one? Rolling my eyes.

Petals said...

wow - this entire tribe cannot keep a secret, it's difficult to follow who is loyal to anyone/everyone else.

Petals said...

Hey Glenn!!!

Glenn Allen said...

They share to much information to much.

Jackie S. said...

Thank you for the donation, Penny!

Joe in NY said...

Hi folks

Nickelpeed said...

You're so welcome, Jackie.

Petals said...

I like Cody, but he already has a target on his carrying-the-tribe back.

Petals said...

YAY!

Nickelpeed said...

Ryan should not be doing this. He's not good at challenges.

Petals said...

This is an opportunity for them to send Geo the Mini Tyrant home.

Glenn Allen said...

Ryan said he threw the Comp!

Nickelpeed said...

My pool pick is Ellie, but I like red team the most.

Petals said...

He is FOS - He didn't THROW the end of the challenge. He's covering for his loss. All to target a chick that has no skills. LOL

Nickelpeed said...

The problem with throwing a challenge is it can come back to bite you in the butt! Never good.

Nickelpeed said...

I agree with you, Petals.

Nickelpeed said...

Doesn't fool her at all.

Nickelpeed said...

This is hilarious. Bumpy ride!

Glenn Allen said...

Ryan telling everyone to vote him out. This is crazy

Glenn Allen said...

All Three Risk their vote!

Petals said...

I like the gang guy, he's really turned his life around.

Nickelpeed said...

He did, Petals, but I don't know if I would trust him in the game. Even though I'm for Vesi, he's very so-so.

Petals said...

Penny - when we went whale-watching in Cape Cod, the waters were choppy and the trip out to the whales was like a sleigh ride, everyone all all excited, like a roller coaster.
But it was 45 min ride.
We were all (35-40) soooo sick, no one could even stand up, LOL
But when we saw the whales, we shelved the sea-sickness and got excited.
Like kids.

SueGee said...

Howdy everyone!! It has been one of those afternoons, and I just realized what time it is. Now my timer is saying to go turn over the chicken on the BBQ...

Catch up with you all later or during TAR

SueGee

Nickelpeed said...

Wow, that ruined someone's day.

Thank you Jackie. Appreciate it.

Will see everyone next week for Survivor; and in an hour for TAR.

Nickelpeed said...

I'm not sure why they all disliked Geo?

Jackie S. said...

Thanks for coming by!

Judi Sweeney said...

Thank you Jackie!!!!

Mike Barer said...

You have great reccollection and have done a great job putting it all in context. We watched over 2 days and I still have not gotten a full grasp on the characters. It's just mind boggling to the viewer, how the players fall for these blindsides.
