Survivor 38: Edge of Extinction Ep. 7 Blog Party

Well, well, well … we're seven episodes in (yes, last week was two episodes) and all of the castaways are still in it one way or another. From the promo shown at the end of last week's show(s), we're in not only for the merge tonight, but all of those on Extinction come trooping in as the Immunity Challenge is about to start. It's my understanding, although I might be wrong, that only one from Extinction will rejoin the castaways and continue playing the game. How they'll whittle the number down, I have no clue. Nor do I know if Extinction will end as the show is named after it. Hmm. However, I predict lots of folks out of the pool after tonight!

I did find out the status of Aubry's idol and advantage, though. Nope, no good. The clue that came with the idol read that it's no longer any good if she is voted out. I don't know if the advantage (extra vote given to her by Chris) had the same wording. But, Jeff Probst has said online and in articles this past week that neither is any good at this point because she was voted out.

As the show airs here on the East Coast I'll be live-blogging the major events and some events possibly not as major. Refresh the page to get the latest news. As always, the real party is in the comments area. Feel free to join in on the fun!

But first … the latest pool update from Lifeguard Laurie!

Chris Underwood - Glenn Allen, Laurie
Rick Devens - Auntie Leigh, Merrilee 
Aubry Bracco * - Cheryl in NC, Margo, Petals
Wendy Diaz - Janice, Jennasmom, tbc

Let's get it ON!

We're starting with … drop your buffs. The merge is on. Jeff starts talking about iconic Survivor moves and then yells "Come on in!" All of the Extinction crew arrives. One of the six will earn his/way back into game. Race through obstacles, untie bag, build bamboo pole, retrieve key, maneuver pole to long track to move ball up track, first one through wins.  Some earned advantages on Extinction. Chris had won bamboo and string. Keith gives a thirty knots disadvantage to Chris. Oh my gosh, Wendy is leading!

Whoops! Wendy dropped it, has to start again! 

RICK DEVENS IS BACK IN THE GAME!

One of my questions answered -- Jeff tells them that Extinction will begin once again. It will continue.

Whoa … Who wants to go back to Extinction Island? They ALL jump at the chance! I guess our blog pool peeps will all sort of be in it still.

The Merge Feast is on. Now, if original Kama stays tight, they have eight strong. Rick is trying to bond with people so he won't be the easy vote out because he had already been voted out. (Cue Big Brother)

On Extinction, some raise the white flag. Uh-oh. Reem, Aubry and Rick remain. I think.

Back at camp, Joe is worried about being targeted while others are indeed talking about taking the easy Rick vote.

Rick finds something in his bag. Note -- two halves of an immunity idol. He keeps one half, gives the other to someone else. He has to get through the first vote without it. If they both make it through the vote, it will become the power of one idol. He tells his closest ally and to-be recipient of the other half David about it.

Time for the first individual Immunity. Stand on narrow beam holding statue. As time goes on, go down the beam to a narrower area. Last one standing with statue wins.

Wind … Ron is out at the start! Gavin out. Wardog out. Rick out. Victoria out. Aurora out. Kelley out. Twenty minutes in and they go to the most narrow. Eric out. Julia out. David out. 

Julie, Joe and Lauren remaining. Ack! Joe out. Lauren out.

JULIE WINS IMMUNITY!

Kelley knows that the current plan is for the "easy vote." But she is concerned enough that she is considering that she might have to use her idol.

Julie is scheming to take Kelley out. She tells Rick that he's a target and he and David need to vote with them, no questions asked. Joe is worried that he might be a target. Ron thinks the Kama Six should vote him out while they can. 

So, it seems to be targeting Joe and Kelley more than Rick. How strong will the six be in the vote? And they hike off to Tribal.

Reem, Chris and Aubry are members of the jury? Jeff tells the others that they chose to return to Extinction. 

Jeff asks about original Kama, threats, idols and other Probsting questions, After Ron makes a statement about Kama being so strong, it's time to vote.

The tally:
Kelley does NOT play her idol.

Rick, Kelley, David, Rick, David, Kelley, David, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe.

Jeff tells them Joe is the fourth member of the jury. Of course … Joe finds the Extinction stand and grabs the torch. He's not quitting!

He greets the other three back on Extinction. Hugs all around. Hmm … I guess this means no Ponderosa this season?

In the promo for next week, someone gets hurt. See you then!

SueGee said...

Extinction or exhaustion island?? ha ha they must not know that when the members of the jury start coming in, the early outs get taken to great places to stay out of sight - like luxury hotels or resorts on the CBS tab,

Ed in Ohio said...

Hi Penny!

monty924 said...

Yay, the FEAST

Nickelpeed said...

tbc said...

Thank you, Penny! ❤️😘

Jenna G said...

Thanks Suegee. Recovery sucks, but I'm very thankful that I will be ok!

SueGee said...

The lure of a hot shower and a cheeseburger!

Petals said...

I'm glad. I will not miss those 2.

Nickelpeed said...

Geesh Kelly. Joe, do not tell her everything. Do not trust her!!!

Ed in Ohio said...

Monty I filled out 3 brackets with my son. On 1 I had Virginia, 1 No Carolina, and on the other as much as I hate to admit it I have...…………..that team up North. (but it is only because it's basketball, I would NEVER if it was football!

Petals said...

Rick is Devon? What???? NOOOO

Ed in Ohio said...

All the best with your recovery JennaG

monty924 said...

Rick, Petals. Devens is his last name. My nephew watched the show with him a couple of weeks ago in a sports bar in SC sitting right next to him and had no clue who he was, LOL. He doesn't watch Survivor and just strolled across the street to watch a ball game in a sports bar and had to watch Survivor, LOL

Judi Sweeney said...

Hi everyone... Wow a lot going on!

monty924 said...

Jenna, thoughts and prayers for a quick recovery.

Homie, you're forgiven... I think ;-)

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Jackie and Penny and TBC and Petals and Jenna and Monty. Hi Jenna and ED

Jenna G said...

Awww that's sweet. It all happened so fast. Had tests before vacation, while on vacation got call I had to do surgery. Got back Monday, had surgery Wednesday. Very thankful that surgery is all I needed.

tbc said...

Hi, Glenn!!

Judi Sweeney said...

That’s a funny story Monty! That would have been cool for one of us to have been at the sports bar!

monty924 said...

Hi Glenn

Petals said...

Hey Glenn! Hey Judi!

Monty - cool!

Jenna - do you need anything?

Ed in Ohio said...

Hi Glenn!

monty924 said...

I know, Judi, lol. He does watch a little BB in the summer, but he isn't a Survivor guy :)))

SueGee said...

Hi Glenn!

Petals said...

oh thank goodness, something to save Rick!

monty924 said...

I can hear his Carolina accent when he talks. It's subtle, but it's there.

Petals said...

awesome, I love his choice for the other half. I hope the little dude doesn't betray him.

Petals said...

I know, Monty, "raaght?"

Petals said...

Who is Gavin? LOL

monty924 said...

Wardog is a big FLOP

Petals said...

awww darn it.

tbc said...

Look at that wind!!

Jenna G said...

Awww thanks,😘❤ my kids and hubby have been amazing so I've been well taken care of.

Petals said...

Aurora? Geeminy - I don't know any of these people. I forget how early it is.

Glenn Allen said...

Jenna sorry about your surgery. I am glad it was benign though!

Petals said...

yay! Meangirl 1 drops

Petals said...

C'mon Joe baby!

Jenna G said...

Darn it Wentworth. Hope Joe gets this one.

Nickelpeed said...

Come on Joe!!!

monty924 said...

I bet David will screw Rick over

Petals said...

yuck

Petals said...

dammit Joe!

monty924 said...

Oh no!!!

Nickelpeed said...

Holy Cow!! She's got some muscles there!

Oh JOE!!

Jenna G said...

Dang Joe!

Petals said...

Good. Julie likes Newscaster, right?

monty924 said...

Joe needs some help here!!!

Petals said...

get rid of Wicked Witch Wentworth

Jenna G said...

Lauren could be a huge contender if she wasn't so sickly.

Nickelpeed said...

Wow. Great challenge. Julie has some huge biceps!! It doesn't show when she's standing there, but wow.

SueGee said...

I think with the extinction island the didn't spend enough time to let us know all the players...the ones without lots of drama around them

Nickelpeed said...

I agree Petals. I hope it's a blindside. However, there are a few others I do not like, either. I just do not want it to be Joe.

Petals said...

Jenna - have you tried the Minsky's/KC Joe's BBQ pizza? It's ahhMAZ-ing!

Petals said...

Will the next person voted-off get offered Extinction Island (or whatever)?

Jenna G said...

I wonder with this twist if it will make players think differently about voting people out.

Petals said...

YES, now I like you Julie

Nickelpeed said...

I wish Pizza Hut would bring back their taco pizza. It was amazing!!!

Jenna G said...

No, that does sound amazing! I'll have to check it out.

Jenna G said...

Yes, extinction island keeps going.

monty924 said...

Chickens WIN

Petals said...

Jenna - it is OKlahoma Joe's burnt ends, pulled pork & brisket, with OK Joe's sauce & mozzarella! Oh my GOOOOOSSSSSSSHHHHHHHH

Nickelpeed said...

Joe is so trusting. He has no idea. I'm hoping he realizes he needs to use that idol. They are not your friends, Joe!!

monty924 said...

Kelly will play her idol and Joe will go. That's what I'm afraid of.

monty924 said...

Wait... did I miss Joe getting an idol???

Nickelpeed said...

ooops, I forgot Joe doesn't have an idol. Dang it!!!

Jackie S. said...

Petals -- Details on Extinction are in the blog post itself. Just sayin … I do keep updating and live blogging.

Jenna G said...

Yep, getting them on the phone ASAP!

Nickelpeed said...

No, he doesn't Monty. I made a mistake. I thought it was Joe Rick gave 1/2 idol. It was David. I'm sad.

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Judi. It looks like they want Wentworth or Joe out. I wonder if Kelly plays her Idol.

Petals said...

*smh* at Joe

Petals said...

Sorry Jackie - I always forget about your actual post; too caught-up in the fun convo.

Petals said...

Oh wow - Joe's hair is down. Homina homina

monty924 said...

Hahaha, love it!!! The three who stayed are automatically on the jury now!

Jenna G said...

Jury this soon? Oh they get to sit in on tribal. Interesting!

Nickelpeed said...

LOL @ Petals

Joe is so cute/adorable, but I can't handle the porn stache!

Nickelpeed said...

It's going to be Joe. Dang it.

Petals said...

Monty, I agree. He needs to trim those curls, LOL.

Nickelpeed said...

Joe is way too trusting.

Jenna G said...

Still tring to figure out if I like Victoria. She's feisty, I like feisty, but somehow, she runs me a bit wrong.

monty924 said...

Get Wentworth

Petals said...

I'm worried.

SueGee said...

They all know they need to get Joe when loses...he could win every challenge the rest of the way!

Petals said...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bye, pretty

Nickelpeed said...

Dang it

Jenna G said...

Runs, rubs

tbc said...

Wow

monty924 said...

DAMN

Nickelpeed said...

Too trusting, Joe.

Petals said...

YES! Come back, my pretty

Jenna G said...

Dang, but he goes to extinction. He will be a strong competitor to come back.

Ed in Ohio said...

Bummer!

Glenn Allen said...

Joe says easy descion said they left the door wide open.

Nickelpeed said...

Thank you, Jackie. Will see everyone next week. Have a nice rest of week.

Jenna G said...

Good night everyone! Have a wonderful week. Thank you Jackie.

monty924 said...

Petals, I love his hair because it reminds me of mine and my brother's... but the stache is creepy, lol.

Nickelpeed said...

Is there a site that has who voted for who? I've been trying to find one. They haven't always been showing the votes. Thanks.

Penny

SueGee said...

Night everyone!! See you next week!

Petals said...

agree, friend. :)

monty924 said...

Well, it's been a fun night. Thanks Jackie and everyone for the company... best company around on Survivor nights.

See you all next month :)))

Ed in Ohio said...

G'Nite All!

Thanks Jackie!

SueGee said...

I thought they had that on Ponderosa Penny. But are they doing Ponderosa yet?? You could always watch the old shows on the CBS site...and just watch the end where they show the votes

Jackie S. said...

Thanks for coming by!

Petals said...

TY Ms Jax & Vincent
