Survivor 40: Winners at War - April 22 Blog Party
I hope everyone is staying safe and well. I've battened the hatches here as my area has been getting hit very hard with COVID-19.
Will the remaining castaways be more psyched for the win now that they've had their family visits? In a side note, I saw that Sandra too got a family visit.
I'll be updating this entry with the major events as the show airs here on the East Coast. Refresh the page to get the latest news! As always, the real party is in the comments area -- please feel free to join in on the fun!

Survivor fans ready?
Jeremy left Tribal using his advantage, so is back at camp awaiting their return. He's upset that his "meat shield" Tyson is out again. His move did save his skin in the game, but left his allies to the wind.
Tony thinks he's playing smarter but it's time to go idol hunting. Oh, geez. Nick shows up so Tony sends him off to an area he had already searched. And he finds one while trying to contain his glee.
They must need filler this week. Sarah has started her own line of clothes. She's trying to create runway models. Tony likes Jeremy but feels he must go. He talks to Jeremy as he goes undercover. I realize many aren't huge Tony fans but I get a kick out of him. But Tony's act with Jeremy might be getting bought by Jeremy ... but not all.
Over on Extinction, Tyson thinks Adam will have a hard time. Natalie finds a wine bottle with a clue. She's sharing it with Parvati. They determine it's under the bed. It's an extortion advantage -- they could sell it to someone who an target someone else to not only sit out of a challenge, but lose their vote.
TONY got it! Oh noes! He was gleeful until he finds it is being played against him and he needs to pay the extortion fee of six fire tokens. He only has three. He shows his new fake allies hoping to beg for tokens. Jeremy mistakenly trusts Tony and gives him one of his two tokens. Ben and Nick each give him one.
Immunity Challenge time -- stand on narrow beam balancing a statue on a pole. Periodically, they will move back on the beam. Winner also wins two fire tokens.
Kim out. Denise, Michele out. Sarah out. Nick out. Sophie out. Ben out. Jeremy drops. TONY WINS HIS SECOND IMMUNITY IN A ROW! He once again wants to target Jeremy.
The consensus seems to be leaning towards voting out Jeremy but throwing a few votes to Michele in case he has an idol. Jeremy and his crew think they're targeting Ben. Now Tony is turning more towards a Ben ouster? Oh, wait ... now he's thinking Sophie! He gets Nick aboard. He thinks their four is stronger than the split vote for Jeremy/Michele. He went to Jeremy who's a bit leery about the whole thing. Tony is right that Jeremy is the target and could very well go home.
Tribal Council time. Jeff brings up two advantages and an idol played. Jeff refers to them as landmines as he talks to Ben. Jeremy talks about half-truths and the need to be careful who you trust.
The tally:
No idols are played.
Jeremy, Michele, Jeremy, Michele, Jeremy, Sophie, Sophie, Sophie, Sophie
Tony did it! Sophie is OUT! She gives her fire tokens to Sarah and Kim.
~*~*~*~ SPLASH ~**~*~*~

ReplyDeleteThe sky behind Parvati is stunning
ReplyDeleteShe's so diabolical. LOLOLOL
ReplyDeleteHi Everyone!!
ReplyDeleteI have a big pot of chili and grilled cheese sandwiches for those that like that. I prefer a peanut butter sandwich with chili so there's plenty of those too. :)))
Yum!!!!
DeleteI was thinking the same jennifer. I think Adam is so down about leaving the game. I wonder if he's being social at all?
ReplyDeleteI'm really liking this little game within the bigger game this season. Exile is as cutthroat as the actual Island. Great twist for this season.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy Monty
ReplyDeleteI'm loving Tony this season too. He's entertaining...
ReplyDeleteMonty, here’s a glass of Riesling...
ReplyDeleteNot chili weather here at all! 80's this week so it is BBQ chicken here! Thanks anyhow Monty!

ReplyDeleteHey Penny
ReplyDeleteMan, Everyone is going to know by the time they go to tribal.
ReplyDeleteI'm lost.
ReplyDeleteThis is too funny.
ReplyDeletePetals, Natalie and Parvati did. Parv pegged it, they wanted someone who would be desparate. They were right.
ReplyDeleteHi Moleman
ReplyDeleteDenise has a really good stance
ReplyDeleteOH! Thanks Penny.
ReplyDeleteI think I would slap Jeff silly. LOL
ReplyDeleteSweat in your eyes is the worst thing ever
ReplyDeleteLOL go Tony
ReplyDeleteMy feet would have been screaming.
ReplyDeleteHe's going to back stab Jeremy. Wow.
ReplyDeleteTONY!
ReplyDelete(am I rooting for Tony? What??)
Ha! Tony.... is he going to give fore tokens back, and to whom?
ReplyDeletePenny, I couldn't have done for sure.
ReplyDeleteLol, Petals... I am too :)))
ReplyDeleteHoping some of our regulars who aren't here are okay!
ReplyDeleteSueGee, my better half is getting sick of chicken, lol. I have a ton of it FoodSaved in the freezer and no matter how creative I"m getting with it... he just rolls his eyes, lol.
ReplyDeleteWhelp, I guess it's going to be Jeremy.
ReplyDeleteAll of the pre-Tribal stuff goes out the window when it comes to actual Tribal.
ReplyDeleteYes, Nick, you probably do smell.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, Petals.
ReplyDeleteAnother interesting tribal???
ReplyDeleteYes, Petals. You can tell it's a good season when we all get quiet for a while just trying to figure out what they are going to do, LOL
ReplyDeleteBecause at Tribal, they all go nuts & it's Whisperpalooza
ReplyDeleteWhisperpalooza! Lol
ReplyDeleteMan, how can he believe Tony. That's hard for Jeremy.
ReplyDeleteRight now, I'm surprised to be Team Tony, Team Jeremy. I really dislike Sofara
ReplyDeleteI want them to vote off Ben. LOL
ReplyDeleteTony is really working for the two million!
ReplyDeleteIf Tony pulls this off, I have a feeling my Denise might be in trouble
ReplyDeleteI'm team Tony tonight but that could change next week, LOL
ReplyDeleteIn other CoronaTine news: I have binged everything, so now I am Kindling. I have just ordered...
ReplyDeletewait for it
He definitely is, Jackie!
ReplyDelete

ReplyDeleteLeif’s poster was on my wall as a teen...
ReplyDeletewow - this was a FAST hour
ReplyDeleteTeeb - me too. I'll let you know how his book is.
ReplyDeleteMy family always calls at the worst time!!!

ReplyDeleteDid she just seal her fate?
ReplyDeleteHi Jackie and everyone> I just made it, Should be a crazy vote
ReplyDeleteThey ALL look guilty!
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn! BLTN!
ReplyDeleteAll over the place
ReplyDeleteBrilliant lol lol lol
ReplyDeleteJenn - CLay County just lifted stay@home starting May 3. Have you held grandchild yet?
ReplyDeleteIt worked!
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn
ReplyDeleteI knew they wanted to get Sophie a few weeks back. That definitely was a blindside.
ReplyDeleteNO whispers? NO scrambling?
ReplyDeleteThat’s awesome, thanks Jackie for hosting!! Have a wonderful week to you all!!
ReplyDeleteLol, they give their tokens to the person(s) they think didn't back stab them. Geesh, this season is strange and funny. Love it

Tony now gets Jeremy and Michelles trust
ReplyDeleteSarah is reeeeaaally upset.
ReplyDeleteLike it!
ReplyDeleteWell, don't know how, but my guy Jeremy continues to hang in there.
ReplyDeleteHope his fingernails can dig into that cliff edge.
I am loving this season and I enjoy watching Tony's exuberance. Maybe yall know why Russell wasn't there, he was the definition of winner out to win again. I'm sorry to hear Sophie got marooned on the island, but maybe the hometown girl Kim can get it done again (I live just outside of San Antonio). I'm in the house now and going to fire up the DVR.
