Survivor 38: Edge of Extinction Ep. 3 Blog Party


So, here we are entering the third episode and we're still relatively clueless about how Edge of Extinction will work. We don't even know if Keith chose to go on with the game. Although, I can't really imagine him NOT going on. But, then again, he's a superfan of the show who chose not to learn to swim before going on that show. I guess we'll learn more tonight.

As the show airs here on the East Coast, I'll be live blogging and constantly updating this post. Refresh the page to get the latest happenings! As always, the real party is in the comments area -- please join in on the fun!

Here are the latest blog pool standings from that luverly Lifeguard Laurie:

Manu Tribe
Chris Underwood - Glenn Allen, Laurie
Dan DaSilva "Wardog" - Jackie, Nana in the NW
David Wright * - Dr_Celine, PDX Granny, Renee Buck
Kelley Wentworth * - Donna in NY, Jenna G
Lauren O'Connell - Brian, Krysta Gibson, Sharon N.
Rick Devens - Auntie Leigh, Merrilee 
Wendy Diaz - Janice, Jennasmom, tbc

Kama Tribe
Aubry Bracco * - Cheryl in NC, Margo, Petals
Aurora McCreary - Ed in Ohio, marthalight
Eric Hafemann - Bizaro22, Pinky, Shannon
Gavin Whitson - Brenda, Kelsey NY
Joe Anglim * - Carol C., Kismet
Julia Carter - Donna in FL, Monty924, Jennifer
Julie Rosenberg - Delee, MikesGirl
Ron Clark - CherryPie, Judi Sweeney, Rochelle
Victoria Baamonde - Indiana Jane, Karen in VS, SueGee

LIMBO -- Extinction?!?!?!
Reem Daly - David, Terry is a Texan, Sharon C.
and maybe, probably …
Keith Sowell - Donna in Alabama, meb, Skyriverblue

Okay, let's watch us some Survivor!

Keith is still over acting his indecision, but goes ahead to Extinction. Reem is thrilled to see another person. She tells him she hasn't eaten for days and they have to get food themselves. She's feeling all motherly and his appearance seems to give her new incentive to stay. Ohh … they got mspd leading them to steps that Reem never saw. Sure enough, they find them. They lead to rice! They have to repeat the strenuous climb each day to get any rice at all. 

Back on the mainland, it's time the Reward Challenge.

Assemble wheelbarrow, sandbags, disassemble wheelbarrow, use parts to slingshot sandbags. 

Comfort or chickens -- three hens, one rooster. Hmm … I don't recall Jeff saying "immunity." I'll correct that if this isn't a combination immunity/reward. Chris better watch it -- he's shining too much in challenges. MANU finally wins a challenge! And, it's just purely Reward, not Immunity. They choose chickens.

Wendy twisted her ankle. Uh-oh!

Wendy wants to set the chickens free. Oh, no … shades of the early Kimmie! Of course, they don't have to eat any other than maybe the rooster. They can have eggs from the hens if they let them live.

Over on Kama, they're talking about targeting either Joe or Aubry. Joe is nearby when Victoria and Ron were talking about targeting them. Now Aubry thinks she needs the idol. And, lo and behold, she finds it! Woot for her! It was on her Survivor bucket list!

Back to the chickens. The others are talking about killing them, not saving some for egg production. They think they need the protein … which they could also get from eggs. Wendy is digging a hole for herself with this one, though.

Immunity back up for grabs.

Pulling (swimming) a boat with four swimming, rest in boat, to towers, retrieve three keys by jumping off and grabbing them, puzzle pieces, spin wheel, raise flag.

KAMA wins Immunity once again. And, unfortunately for returnees -- David and Kelley totally sucked at the puzzle part. David thinks it's a perfect time for them to target Kelley. He better watch out or it could be him.

Wendy is sure she's going home because of her ankle. The others are talking about killing a chicken. Yipes, they can't find the flint. Wardog thinks Wendy took it to save the chicken … and he's totally right. David and Chris go to ask her about it. She denies taking the flint. David thinks that Wendy will be loyal to him and they need to pull in Chris to target Kelley. He doesn't want Wardog to know. Meanwhile, Chris is close to Wardog. A dilemma! He talks to Wardog. Hmm... Wardog tells us he's trusts Kelley more than he trusts Chris and thinks Chris should be targeted. He runs to Kelley. Now Chris is a target.

Wardog goes to Rick and now Rick is all nervous. Oops! Rick goes to David. David thinks it's going to be a rough Tribal Council. I think he's totally right.

Tribal time …
Sure enough, chicken talk. David says tonight is probably about getting rid of the social threat, not necessarily the weakest in challenges. 

Time to vote. The tally:
Kelley, Chris, Kelley, Chris, Chris, Chris …

And Chris is outta there!

No indecision from him -- "Screw those guys, I'm getting back in the boat."

Next week -- drop your buffs! And, they're going into three tribes, not two.

Happy Wednesday, Pool Peeps!!

Jenna G said...

Hi Jackie & tbc. He chose to stay!

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Jackie and TBC and everyone who follows.

It looks like from reading some of the preview article of the CBS all access article it said that contestants will be tested Physically and mentally on Extinction Island for the chance for One to return,

tbc said...

Hi all!!

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Laurie and Jenna.

Petals said...

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

Hi Jackie, Hi Vincent!
Hello everyone!

Hope everyone is warm, healthy & happy today.
*prayers* for poor Alex Trebek.

I have my usual: STEEEELLLLLLLLLAAAAAAA

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Jackie and Vincent! Thank you so much for giving us a place to come to talk about Survivor.

Hi Laurie, Jenna, Glenn and tbc!!

Jenna G said...

Hi Laurie and Glenn! I wonder if they'll do challenges in front of the rest of the tribes like they've done before it in total secret.

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Petals!!

SueGee said...

~~~SPLASH~~~~ Howdy everyone from the wet left coast!! They just said they are having "thunder snow" up in the mountains right now...

A Dry Squeegee from the LeftCoast

monty924 said...

Hello Jackie, tbc, Laurie, Glenn, Jenna, Peny and Petals!!!

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Petals.

monty924 said...

And SueGee

Jenna G said...

Hi Petals, Penny and SueGee!

Jenna G said...

Hi Monty!

Nickelpeed said...

Is she going to complain every day? At least Keith is a little more optimistic.

I do believe voting Keith off will still make them weak. We'll see, I guess.

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Monty and Suegee.

monty924 said...

Awww, not the chickens. They always kill the hens - DUH

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Monty!! Are we ready for Spring yet???

Jenna G said...

Dang that's hard, but I think the Chicken's.

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Penny, This challenge looks interesting.

jennifer said...

Hi friends! I have been banished to Exhile Island (aka my bedroom) as the family watches Sporting KC in Spanish!

SueGee said...

No Stellas for me tonight - got me a burger, sweet potato fries and a shake from Habit Burger.

monty924 said...

Penny, I'm so ready for Spring. The past two morning in the teens here. Brrrrrrr

Glenn Allen said...

My Heater got fixed this morning. It was terrible last few nights without heat.

Jenna G said...

Lol, glad your hanging with us!

Petals said...

Jennifer - I'd be cracking skulls! LOL

jennifer said...

Happy to hear you will be warm and toasty tonight!

Nickelpeed said...

I never understood that, Monty. They could have eggs every day if they kept the hen. However, it does depend on how old the chicken is at the time, though. They don't start laying until around 6 months. If they are larger, it's longer. If the hen is older, the egg production decreases.

jennifer said...

Chris is a beast!

Jenna G said...

Never have I ever packed the car for spring break in a coat, hat and gloves!! Leaving in the am for an insta spting... Here we come FL!

Nickelpeed said...

Glenn, I can't believe you had to live without heat for 2 days. Wow. That's horrible. But at least you have heat now.





monty924 said...

Manu wins one

Jenna G said...

Spring...

Glenn Allen said...

Yes Chris my pool guy wins reward. Manu takes Chickens!

Petals said...

Noooo! No more chickens :( I hate seeing the babies die.
Thank GOODNESS they stopped the madness with goats -that was brutal!

Jenna G said...

Yep Chicken's

Joe in NY said...

Hi folks

monty924 said...

Hey Jennifer

jennifer said...

That has got to be the worst, to get injured when you go through so many pains to get on Survivor!

monty924 said...

And Joe

Jenna G said...

I don't mind the chicken's, but the goats...yeah I didn't like that.

Jenna G said...

Hi Joe!

Glenn Allen said...

It was two weeks penny. But the jast few nights in the 20s or 30 was rough. Hi Jennifer,

Nickelpeed said...

I didn't like the goats either, Jenna. You keep them for milk. I couldn't kill one. No way.

Joe in NY said...

Hi Jenna, Monty, Petals, Glenn, Jackie...who did I miss?

Petals said...

Survivor YODAs: Has any tribe/person (beside that sweet lil Asian man) ever properly kept
the chickens for the purpose of laying eggs? Or has every season devoured them in days?

Nickelpeed said...

2 WEEKS???? Holy Moly, Glenn. And they couldn't fix it before that? 2 weeks is a little too long. Wow! Why did they make you wait so long?

Petals said...

hey Joe baby! xoxo How are you?

Jenna G said...

Oh that looks so bad!! Ouch!

Nickelpeed said...

I don't think Kimmi allowed them to kill the chickens. But I could be wrong. Monty's really good at this.

Ed in Ohio said...

Hello to EVERYONE! …..top to bottom

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Joe!!

Nickelpeed said...

Hi Ed!!

monty924 said...

Jail break, LOL

Petals said...

Build a HUMANE pen for them, geeeeeminy! No one has ever considered building a proper structure for them?
(anyone who has ever raised chickens knows they will NOT lay in a cage like that)

monty924 said...

Hey Homie... how the weather up there?

monty924 said...

Petals, I think Tai was the only one who ever took care of and protected the chickens.

Jenna G said...

Sometimes they kill them right away and sometimes they let them lay eggs for a while then eat them closer to the end. I'm not sure, but don't you need a rooster so the hens lay eggs?

jennifer said...

How could she not see him?!?

Jenna G said...

That's true.

Nickelpeed said...

I hope Joe is looking, too.

Jenna G said...

Good point!

Petals said...

They could eat the rooster (*sad*) and let the hens live in a comfortable pen area...then they'd lay. But they are hungry & impatient.

Jenna G said...

Good for her!

monty924 said...

Way to go, Aubry!

Nickelpeed said...

Monty and Petals. I even think he named the chicken and it survived even past the last tribal council.

Joe in NY said...

Hi Petals

Really crappy day...thanks for asking. LOL

tbc said...

I know!! He was right there

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Joe. My Brother finally called them last night to talk to a worker he knew there to make sure someone got here today. I don't know what took so long. Aubrey finally finds an Idol. Wendy is crazy about the Chickens.

jennifer said...

She is digging her Survivor grave to save the chickens!

Petals said...

Hens lay eggs with or without a rooster. A rooster will fertilize the eggs to make them chicks, but eggs come regardless of fertilization.

Ed in Ohio said...

Hi Penny!

Hi Homie! Woke up to 2-3 inches of snow this morning & has been real cold. That Ground Hog is full of it!

SueGee said...

I thought they voted Tai off and then ate the chickens

Petals said...

Farm people know that you need to get those eggs every day, else the rooster DOES get to the eggs and fertilizes them, then you crack that egg to make an omelet and a chicken zygote is inside - now THAT is a heartbreak.

Jenna G said...

Oh good to know... thanks!

monty924 said...

We had our snow a couple of days ago, but the cold and the wind is brutal. Now we're supposed to get hit again tomorrow night into Friday. Grrrr

Ed in Ohio said...

That tribe should 'ride' Joe at least to the merge.

Petals said...

Monty - a warm front is headed your way. We were 10° yesterday, 20° today and will be 55° by Friday!

jennifer said...

Oh that water is so pretty

tbc said...

My pool pick doesn’t look promising...

Ed in Ohio said...

Maybe Jenna G can send some of that Florida weather up north!

monty924 said...

I agree Ed. They shouldn't even be thinking Joe at this point.

Nickelpeed said...

No, one chicken, a rooster, survived. He couldn't be brought back, so they all set him free.

Petals said...

Ed - I'd like to 'ride' Joe to at least the merge. BWHHAHAAAA

monty924 said...

Ut oh... bad omen when they show the trial run and raise the flag of one tribe or another.

jennifer said...

This is a neat challenge!

Ed in Ohio said...

Petals LOL!

Petals said...

thanks Penny!

Jenna G said...

Oh no!

monty924 said...

I've never understood why people can't jump into water without holding their nose. You learn to blow out.

SueGee said...

Monty - bad sinuses. I used to have to do that or wear nose plugs

Jenna G said...

Yes, here in KC that's all we know this winter. Couple inches of snow or a layer of ice every week. This is the first week since Christmas our kiddoes have had a full week of school! Long winter!

Jenna G said...

I agree!

Nickelpeed said...

I sometimes think the team Kelly is on has no brains.

monty924 said...

Yay!! Kama wins again!

Petals said...

Monty - me too! I've never held my nose! There is way to close-off your throat/esophagus. It drives me bananas!!!!!

Jenna G said...

I'll try! 50 Ftiday!!

Ed in Ohio said...

Yea Kama!

Petals said...

JOE IS SAFE

monty924 said...

I guess I didn't think of that, SueGee. It still looks weird seeing adults who can swim do that.

Jenna G said...

Me too!

Ed in Ohio said...

Sounds good Jenna! Thanks :))

Glenn Allen said...

Manu loses again even though Keith not in this challenge! David wants Wentworth out. I hope Chris stays safe. They should get Wendy out with the bad Ankle and because of the Chickens!

monty924 said...

Our whole tribe, well mine, is safe, LOL

Jenna G said...

Totally agree!

jennifer said...

Wendy needs to go!

tbc said...

That’s why my pool pick is in jeopardy... bad ankle and chicken protector..

Petals said...

WOW! What beautiful whale footage!

Jenna G said...

Kelly's my pool pick and I'm a fan of her's so I don't want to see her go. She's laid pretty low so far and hasn't rocked the boat yet. Other then the fact she's a returning player I haven't seen why they keep targeting her.

SueGee said...

Wendy will fit right in on Extinction Island!

Jenna G said...

Hahaha she did!!! Lol!

Nickelpeed said...

I think Wendy should leave, also. What a terrible move.

monty924 said...

Oh, Wendy @@

jennifer said...

She is a good liar.

Petals said...

Hiding the flint won't save the babies

Jenna G said...

Yeah Suegee...that will get her a one way ticket straight to Extinction island!

Jenna G said...

They better get that flint out of her pocket before they vote her out.

Glenn Allen said...

They need to get rid of Wendy because of her ankle and because of the chickens. Sending Wentworth home would be dumb!

Nickelpeed said...

I'd like to see someone find the flint in Wendy's pocket.

David is after her, not Chris.

Jenna G said...

I agree!

Ed in Ohio said...

That tribe is really fractured

Glenn Allen said...

Now my pool pick Chris might be in trouble!

SueGee said...

I wonder if next weeks show will include the words "Drop your buffs"

Nickelpeed said...

I wish they knew it was David, not Chris, who is after Kelly. Wow. This is why to do not win. They can't even agree on anyone.

Nickelpeed said...

I do think if they knew Wendy took the flint, she'd be gone.

Petals said...

I was sick of Wendy after day one. Chicken protector, LOL. I don't care - she's annoying. Se was only PRETENDING to love the babies to get more camera time.

Jenna G said...

The whole tribe seems to be all over the place.

Petals said...

I'm finished with "Wardog" & Wendy. Boring, thirsty!

SueGee said...

Wendy get any medical attention for her ankle?

Nickelpeed said...

They actually need to get rid of someone who is weak. They need the strong people right now. Something is not working for them. They can get rid of the social threats all they want, they will still lose.

Jenna G said...

Not televised

Jenna G said...

Exactly!

Petals said...

WAIT! Is David the same David that was on a coupla seasons ago? He was sweet and an underdog & we all loved him by the end of the game???



Sorry - I really do have a memory issue.

monty924 said...

SueGee, she has a wrap so she must have seen the medical team.

Glenn Allen said...

Sounds like David hinted about Wentworth. It would be crazy if Wendy took the Flint to Extinction if she got voted out!

Nickelpeed said...

Okay, they voted for 2 of the strongest members.....stupid

SueGee said...

yes Petals - that David

monty924 said...

Kelly safe

Petals said...

wow. Bye bye pretty guy

monty924 said...

I don't think voting Chris off was smart though

Nickelpeed said...

These people are the stupidest people.

SueGee said...

dumb dumb dumb

Jenna G said...

Wentworth escaped again! They need to keep the stronger players...they're so dumb!

Glenn Allen said...

My Pool pick Chris voted out because he wanted to help get Wentworth out. He is mad and wants to get back in the game1

Nickelpeed said...

I wonder if next week is a team mix up?

SueGee said...

That's what I said earlier Penny - time for a mix up

jennifer said...

Wow, not such a smart move..
Thanks Jackie for the lovely pool party!
Have a wonderful week everyone 🤗

Ed in Ohio said...

G'Nite All!

Thanks Jackie!

Everybody have a good week!!

monty924 said...

Penny, that's a good possibility since the tribes are so lopsided now.

Nickelpeed said...

I wonder how long Wendy will keep the flint? They will still lose next week until they get rid of the weak players. So dumb. Maybe they'll lose no matter what?

Nickelpeed said...

Thank you, Jackie. Appreciate you doing this for us.

See everyone next week!!!

monty924 said...

Well, time to fold laundry. Thanks as always Jackie.

Everyone have a great week and weekend. See you all next week!

Nickelpeed said...

Does anyone know when the finale is for Survivor 38? Just curious.

Jackie S. said...

I liked David in his season … all along. SOME people were very critical about him and then ended up liking him. I'm not sure I'm liking him so much this season.

Jenna G said...

Goodnight & thank you Jackie. Goodnight friends! I will miss you all next week. Yep, drop the buffs next week. Hope it warms up for everyone very soon.

Jackie S. said...

Penny - I have no clue when the finale is. You could probably Google it and find out. It started earlier this year than last. I recall the season premiere last year was my surgery day.

Thank you all for coming tonight!
