I cant believe I am about to say this, but what an expertly crafted episode ofSurvivor.
How was she invisible for three episodes and then roared to the forefront?
After that, things get unexpected quickly.
Everyone walks right into a challenge.
And its not even an immunity challenge.
What are we going to do next?
Reelect George W. Bush?
I love it whenSurvivorkeeps us guessing.
At the sanctuary, the bus-throwing starts immediately.
Teeny tells them all that she is at the bottom because they took out Kishan.
Sue comes after Sam and Sierra about how they may be running things on their tribe.
Most aggressively, Tiyana tells everyone that Gabe is always hunting for idols.
In fact, there is no idol hunting this whole episode.
Thats what I love about this twist.
Who needs idols when we get to see these blossoming relationships that will inevitably pay off in future episodes?
Excellent work,Survivorcrew.
In the new era, they love to invent twists and keep them around forever.
We also get to see whats happening back at camp.
Dude, just let it ride for a minute.
Playing so hard and so aggressively is turning everyone off.
She verifies with the most cursory of chats with Sol.
She says that if he isnt telling her the truth, then his usefulness drops and his danger increases.
Caroline convinces her to apologize to him because she wants to keep Tuku strong after the merge.
When will these tribes figure out that it almost never works?
Players should find the people they actually like and want to work with.
Stop triaging this tribe and just hold on for one more day, things will go your way.
Hold on for one more day.
Sorry, Wilson Phillips took over.
I meant she should hold on for the merge.
Why is everyone such bad liars this season?
I have always thought she should go with Sam, who openly tells her that she is his No.
If she goes with the girls, it seems like they would kick her out if they had to.
I just hope tribes dont start trying this all the time.
Im obsessed with these homeless chickens, though.
Will they hold onto them and use them again forSurvivor48?
Are they going to give them to some local Fijians?
Are they going to set them up at Ponderosa and give them their own TikTok show?
We need closure on the chickens!
I think this is potentially the only time that Jeff has made me genuinely laugh.
Good one, JLP.
Oh, an obstacle course followed by a puzzle.
Its hard to get those bottom blocks off, he shouts.
However, this is a lot harder because Anika lost her vote on a journey a few episodes back.
If Sam really wants to push it, he could force a tie, which could mean rocks.
But the episode has really earned it.
As I said, a perfectly constructed and rather rewarding episode ofSurvivor.
Well, for everyone but the chickens.
