The show will be starting in about five minutes here on the East Coast. As it airs, I'll update this post with major news while sharing some opinions on what I see both here and in comments. Of course, the comments area is where the real party is! Everyone is welcome to join in, the water's fine! Oh. And bring snacks. Snacks are always good.
I wonder if they're over-hyping the race issues for tonight. This could be interesting!
The recap started off with a SAM! Drink up!
Duel time - everyone is there to watch. Loser will be first member of jury. All three are participating. They have to build a traditional house of cards with slate pieces. Going for eight feet. They don't need to be first, but it needs to last. Mike and Matt stay alive, David goes to jury. Matt and Mike return to Redemption Island.
Whoa! Phillip stole most of Zapetera's rice, then is upset that Zap doesn't want them putting their contaminated rice into Zap's container.
Steve called Phillip a lunatic, so Phillip decided it was racial. @@
Immunity -- puzzles in rounds. First six moving on. They're spinning around, getting dizzy, as they remove a threaded disk from a spool, then onto a puzzle.
Rob, Julie, Ralph, Andrea, Steve and Grant move on to next puzzle.
Boston Rob wins Immunity!
Julie stole Phillip's shorts and buried them. He's stuck in his pink underwear. The Zapetera members want Phillip out tonight and think they need two Ometepe to flip. I doubt that will happen.
Tribal Council - Phillip is sure that Steve stole his clothes. They talked out the race and rice war. Julie admitted taking Phillip's shorts when Jeff asked.
The tally: Phillip, Phillip, Phillip, Julie, Julie, Julie, Julie, Julie.
Julie is out and no way will Phillip get his shorts again!

Fist? Maybe because it's only 5 pm here! I brought a full bar set up for everyone. We are celebrating my wedding anniversary - 43 years of being with my best friend!
So, you name it and my handsome bartender will get that right to you! We have all you could possibly desire whether it has booze in it or not.
Two SAMs in the first two minutes. Has everyone got a designated driver?
And bu fist I mean FIRST, of course.
Cheesy bread sticks and party punch for all. Dig in...
Hey, everyone. I brought tacos for tonight.
Laurie - We know neither you or your husband are old enough to be together for 43 years!
Congratulations ... it's wonderful!
Hello!
Happy Anniversary Laurie!! <3
Have a 6-pack of Silver Bullet - am rolling cheap tonight.
wow - ditto congrats to Laurie & Mr Laurie.
Is Phillip using a foreign language to tell someone that he is SAM?
I predict a few great SAM moments in our near future, lol. Have drink ready!!!
I think he is, Becky. Drink up!
happy anniv laurie and hubby! -jeannemarie
We were children!
Now I have "Secret Agent Man" running thru my head.
Congratulations, Laurie. Is that good looking throw bar tender Mr. Laurie?
BFS - I am not buying this act of Phillips. He is trying to be a "character". He didnt go this bat-sh** crazy until recently. He was pompous, but not he is a lunatic. It is all for show. He just wants to be remembered for the next All Star.
LOL Becky! Yes, Mr Laurie needs to be tending bar.
Meanwhile, my pool floatie is desperately empty on once side : (
The food is "everyone's", as long as it isnt fish that the other tribe caught.
Hi Petals,
I'm here in spirit...barely.
Hi folks.
3 Man RI... cool!
No Becky, my husband is over there in the hammock reading a book. The bartender is Petal's handsome icon. She's sharing him with us tonight.
Yes, Matt... unfortunately you let them. I say Matt doesn't pass this one?
Hey punkin. I just left you a note on FB. {{{joe}}}
I could feel you here. I was reaching out to you.xxxxooo
what is a SAM? -jeannemarie
GO MATT!
Jeannemarie - SAM means secret agent man. Whenever Phillip mentions his govt job, we drink. We get drunk alot, LOL
Monty, I dunno, Matt is pretty steady, but he chokes at camp.
eek... I hate these nailbiters! WOOHOO MATT!!!
Wow, Matt... great! I didn't think you could do it.
wow - look at all the nearly-nude Rafas. Nice.
Ohh, I like the bartender. Who is he, Petals? :)
Jeannemarie -- I'm happy to see you're feeling well enough to stop by!
thanks for the explanation petals! i now seem to recall that!
jackie thanks! i even drove yesterday for the first time in a month! less then a mile to my dentist, but i still drove! i was psyched!!!
The bartender is Mr Laurie. My nearly nude guy is (#1 tennis player) Rafael Nadal in his new Emperio Armani ad. I have Rafa fever.
shouldn't there be another dual on redemption island? there are two people there now.
SAM is a crazy Man!!! :)
Oh, drink!!!
omg he should talk about how people behave!!! -jeannemarie
Hope you are OK, Jeannemarie. Was it dental-related, your under-the-weather-ness?
DRINK!!!!DRINK!!!!
That qualifies "Chief of Counterintelligence!" Drink up!
DRINK!!!!
Wow, drink again... SAM is on a roll!
Another drink! We are all going to be thrashed before the hour is up.
Jeannemarie - See? We always get to tip a glass to SAM.
Super SAM night!
What does crazy have to do with race?
Racial rant. It finally happened. @@
Jackie - LOL. Yeah, super sized SAM, haha.
This just means that Phillip is "safe" tonight!
Seriously, am I the only one that thinks Phil is just an act? Trying to be memorable?
Petals - Jeannemarie came close to losing her life due to an infected cat bite.
you've gotta wonder. Is he really that nuts or has the lack of food and heat gotten to him?
petals -no my cat bit me on the wrist. spent ten days in the hospital on iv antibiotics, home for two weeks then landed back in the hospital for four days. came home last thurs. have a big hole in my wrist from where the dr lanced it. though it looks much better then it did. dr said it is healing nicely and i can go back to using the computer. jackie can tell you it looked pretty gross from the photos on facebook. if you're on facebook and one of jackie's friends send me a friend request and you can see the photos. i'm the only jeannemarie of her friends.
oh JeanneMarie, I'm sorry to hear that. Glad you're feeling better. Friend of my sister actually did die from a cat bite infection. Glad you are out and driving!
figures he plays the race card... -jeannemarie
I don't think you're crazy, Petals. I believe its all and ACT. He's trying to make it to jury and maybe the crazy man everyone wants to take to the end.
Unbelievably gross! To think it came from a bite which didn't even draw blood!
Happy to see you here too, jeannemarie. Every time my kitty bites me now, I think about how lucky I am. God bless you and so glad you are here to blog with us tonight.
Jeannemarie - OMG. Now I DO remember that happening, didnt remember who! Wow, so sorry. Glad you are feeling better. (thanks Jax)
woohoo Julie!
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! SAM maybe o-u-t.
Like he needed immunity.
Jeannemarie, I didn't know you had to go back. I hope you continue to improve and can put this behand you.
The Godfather lives to fight another day. I soooo hope Ralph goes home! :) Keep our SAM for next week, please!
omg joe! i am so sorry to hear this. i was lucky. if i had waited another two days to go to the dr (the mon) i would have been dead. there were red streaks up to my elbow. and yes, we still have the cat despite my drs wanting her to go! :O)
monty -why do you think philip is safe tonight? they need to get ride of him. then again if he makes it to the final two nobody would vote for him.
petals -i think it's part act part the real him
Seems to me the Immunity challenge was geared to Rob, but Survivor would deny that.
The Puzzle Master...
Request(s) sent.
thanks everyone. if you have cats and it bites or scratches you, please make sure you clean it out well. soap water and piroxide (sp)
Yay, Miracle! You know the cat wouldn't ever intentionally hurt you.
Jeannemarie - is the kitty in the pic the same bite-kitty?
I think when the play of the fact that someone is going home, they never do. :(
can we please vote of philip? -jeannemarie
I'm with Monty. They like to set up a straw man to make you think someone else is going home. It's probably Ralph.
I think it would be really funny if after totally dominating, Rob et al ended up losing to someone returning from Redemption Island late in the game.
Y'know, if it weren't for Phil this season would suck...and I don't like Phil! But no one is playing the game. Zapatera killed themselves when they took out Russell and they were never back in it. The rest of them just follow Rob's little Cult of Personality.
Haha, she hid Phillip's shorts. I love this season!
oooo this isn't gonna be good. LOL
Finally, cuz I've been over Phillip since the 3rd week.
SAM has NO butt!
High Five Boyfriend. That is the best line ever: Rob's Cult of Personality. Love u! LMAO
Yes he does, Monty: he wears it on his shoulders
I am drinking, that was close enuf.
now that is funny! phillip is going to be mad! -jeannemarie
Hey Delee! Just saw ya.
petals yes -jeannemarie
We will have Ponderosa now...YEA!
Keep diggin that hole, Phil.
DRINK!!!!
Have another drink!
Hey Petals. been quiet for the 1st half! Hope all is well in Petal-land!
I'm officially drunk... SAM is priceless tonight. He might just be going home or onto Ponderosa. I feel sorry for the others there.
oh no, Philip has been in upstate NY
BFS, such BFS! Thank you Steve! A voice of reason.
his training sucks if he blames steve! lol -jeannemarie
Laurie I may be a little late to the game but CONGRATS!!!!
I think by Phillips way of thinking, EVERYONE is calling Phil ne "n" word. Cuz I think he is absolutely bonkers!
Well, there you go... Jeff just admitted that we'll come back next Wednesday and do it again. I say, that was dubbed in!
I would vote him out so he can wear some real clothes at Ponderosa
Is anyone here African American (or "crazy")?
It would be rather funny to watch Phil walk around that way for another 2 weeks...LMAO
dangit.
SAM lives another day, hahaha!
seriously, do they stack the votes?
Every week, the non Zapatera's votes have ALL been pulled first.
I would have gotten rid of Steve or Ralph, but I'm not playing the game. ;)
Joe - I think they are strategically stacked/read, sure!
if any of Rob's minions had a brain, they'd carve an alliance with the dopes from Zapatera. What do they think happens when those 2 are gone?
i'm confused. if whoever is voted out tonight is the first member of the jury; what happens to matt and the other guy on redemption island? -jeannemarie
With Julie gone he just may never find his shorts! UGH hope the pink undies do not get a hole in them! MY EYES!!!
Whoever said that all the Phillip coverage tonight meant he wasn't going to RI.
Looks like we can drink next week too.
Joe - Jeff has said he arranges the vote tally for suspense and they usually will show the votes that they revealed during the voting.
David is already on the jury and again there are 3 at Redemption Island....
Thanks Jackie, that makes sense.
Jeannemarie, Matt and MIke will eventually make it to the jury but they are still "in the game" now until they lose on Redemption Island
David is already on the jury. I guess it's a three-way duel on Redemption again.
Great show! I hope I make it home, LOL.
Jeannemarie - keep feeling better. Joe - I owe you a backrub.
See you guys next time.
XXXOOXOXOX
Anon, Dave lost at RI, so he is the first one completely out of the game. Mike and Matt have been voted out of the tribe, but the still have a chance to get back in the game.
It sounds like Matt is very depressed.
I like the 3 way better because before you had a 50-50 now it is 33% chance to win. Also Matt was dominating the 1-1's
how long will the contestants be going to redemption island? shouldn't matt be let back in the tribe by now? he deserves to be. -jeannemarie
Night all. BTW, Joe, it was in the high 80's today and 90 yesterday.
My DH and I have been working at his brother's house getting ready for an estate sale. By the time the house cools off it is time to leave.
See you guys Sunday.
Matt got back into the game and then his old tribe voted him out at the next TC.
Joe said " if any of Rob's minions had a brain, they'd carve an alliance with the dopes from Zapatera. What do they think happens when those 2 are gone?"
That's the thing, they are all under the influence of Rob's star power. Not a one of them is thinking. Not one!
OMG - I think maybe Phillip really is crazy. His actions at Tribal are beyond belief. Nice to see his being talked to so reasonably ... not that he is listening!
Aren't there going to have to be some double eliminations? When is the finale? One jury member at this point and so many contestants left.
Just so you know, Boston Rob has a Twitter account. Not much about the show, although Wednesday is Crispy Rice night at the Mariano household.
