Shot Into Smithereens
Last week Abi bought herself another week by buying an advantage and winning Immunity - which resulted in Penner going home.
Dangrayne - Night 30
Returning from Tribal Council, Abi knows now that Denise, Malcolm, Lisa & Skupin are in an alliance so she's talking to Carter and reinforcing her lie about having a 4th hidden immunity idol. He just seems dim, I don't know if he believes it or not. She tells the camera it's her only play, perpetuating this myth.
-At the fire the 4-person alliance is cooking some coconut and Malcolm is trying to re-assure Lisa she did the right thing sticking with them. Lisa tells the camera that Penner had a valid point, Malcolm has been playing a very well-rounded game, under-dog, good at challenges, (he's nice, good with kids and easy on the eye... just needs a haircut.) Strategic but likable - all around really great game.
-Denise tells her she's proud of her for standing up for herself (it just came off as condescending.) Lisa knows going to the end with Malcolm and Denise is not the smartest strategy but betraying the trust goes against everything she is.
Day 31
REWARD CHALLENGE
They learn they will be paired up with a loved one, and the waterworks starts.
-Skupin's oldest son comes out and he loses his mind a little - also named Michael.
-Carter's mom comes out and we see more emotion from him than ever before, a little tear.
-Denise wraps herself around her husband - and snots on his shirt.
-Lisa gets her brother Justice(?) and she bawls! It was uncomfortable how hard she was crying... and he kept saying, "sister, sister" (weird).
-Abi gets to see her Mom, she's so cute and little and Portuguese - she's also very confused because she doesn't speak English (poor thing.)
-Jeff plays with Malcolm a little... now that everyone has a loved one... wait! He brings out Malcolm's little brother, Miles, who also needs a haircut (wow, do I ever sound old - Stay off of my lawn!) Miles is cute, he's also a fan and kinda giggly (hmm, that could be annoying.)
The challenge: the Survivors will throw a muddy bag to their loved one, then the loved one must throw the bag to knock down a target. First team to knock down all the targets wins Reward. Reward: Loved one goes back to camp and stays the night.
Off they go - everyone's doing pretty well except Abi & her little butterball mom - Abi can't get it to her and mom can't catch - Carter's mom has good aim, Malcolm's brother, Denise's husband, Lisa's brother, even Skupin's son is knocking targets down... Carter, Malcolm and Skupin were all down to one and Malcolm and Miles are the first team done! Miles jumps on Malcolm and knocks him over (easy big boy, he's a little depleted.)
-Malcolm gets to choose one other Survivor and he chooses Lisa because of the tough time she's having out there.
-Skupin tells him to ask for another, "Jeff, may I have another?" Of course he can. He then chooses Skupin (oh, poor Denise - she gets shafted because Malcolm is still trying to keep the other two loyal.)
Dangrayne - Day 31
Lisa says she's always had a really close relationship with her brother. He's 20 years younger than her but so mature (and he looks familiar, he may do some acting as well - But Justice, come on, what kind of name is that?)
-Malcolm says his brother is 21 and he's a knucklehead, in a nice way. He's always trying to get a laugh, but out there if he runs his mouth too much he could cost Malcolm at this point in the game.
-Mike Jr. wants to get a coconut so he climbs a palm tree and is wildly swinging the machete but he loses his hold and slides down, totally skinning his arms - everyone is worried, "Are you okay?" his dad, "That's my boy." (Of course, now they look alike, all skinned up and bloody - ha ha, like father like son for sure.)
-Lisa spends the day filling in her brother on everything that's gone on and how she's made mistakes but it was harder than she thought it would be to just look at this as a game. Justice sees his role there as grounding her and reminding her it is just a game, she needs to outwit, outlast and outplay everyone there. She told him she's in a 4 person alliance but she doesn't want to go to the end with Malcolm
-Lisa & Justice meet up with the Michael's Skupin and Sr. says they are in a good place even though Malcolm has an idol, he only has two more chances to play it and he has no reason to... Justice says, "You should vote out Malcolm then." Skupin's like, "oh, maybe we should." and instantly I can see Lisa is uncomfortable with it. She may talk a good game but she won't go back on her word, even if she does hand over the money.
-Justice sits her down and gets her to explain why she wouldn't vote out Malcolm - she gave her word. To his credit he doesn't roll his eyes (like I just did) he says, "even though, when you tried to blindside him before he forgave you and understood it was just the game? He might even respect you for doing that." (AH! I think the clouds parted in Lisa's mind - oh yeah, that did happen, and it is just a game.) "Yay! I can play this game and I can play it well." (Seriously? 31 days in? It could bite her in the butt though if she gets too cocky - we shall see.)
-Lisa shares this fresh perspective with Michael - they should get Carter and Abi and vote Malcolm out - they have a better chance of winning in the end. Michael says he loves fresh perspective and Lisa finally seems excited to be playing the game.
Dangrayne - Day 32
-There is a prayer circle... Lisa & her brother and Michael's Skupin, she is praying for God's blessing of their plan and for His will to be done even if it's not her plan (but hopefully it's her plan - cause she's got God on her side, right?)
-The others are at the fire and Malcolm's kicking himself for not realizing that they'd bond over Jesus. Abi say you'll just have to kick butt at the challenge.
-Malcolm tells the camera he's most worried about Lisa - she was at rock bottom emotionally and having her brother there may have snapped her back to her senses and made her really think about who she wants to be sitting beside at the end (hit the nail on the head there - that was a mistake letting her loved one stay).
-The prayer circle starts wondering what Jesus would look like playing Survivor - Probably a little like Malcolm, and he'd probably play like Carter - Oh, hahahaha (bonding with God humour, the rest of them are sunk.)
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE
This one's out on the water - they will race across a floating bamboo balance beam to a platform where they will find a hook attached to rope - they will drop it in the water and use it to retrieve three bags - once they have the bags they must swim to shore with their bags then use the sticks and ropes in the bags to fashion a pole - once the pole is long enough, they will use it to hit a target and drop their flag - winning Immunity.
-Everyone gets to the platform long before Denise but she gets into it with fishing up the bags. Carter, Skupin and Lisa are the first 3 with all the bags, Malcolm, Denise & Abi get the bags and head for shore... oh, hold on, everyone except for Abi - I don't think she's much of a swimmer - she finally gets to shore and Lisa is making her first attempt at the target... too short. Carter too short... Skupin - no... They've given Malcolm the chance to try and Carter is back trying both stretching with their wobbly poles, and it's MALCOLM! That wins immunity (of course he did, though I can't say I'd be sorry to see Abi go.)
Lisa is so bummed, "I was so ready to play this game hard. Poop." (ha ha, she did say that, potty mouth Lisa.) "Malcolm wins immunity and the plan is shot to smithereens."
Dangrayne - Day 33
-Malcolm is so relaxed and euphoric, he has immunity so he can't be voted out tonight, he doesn't have to worry about people pairing off and talking and he still has the hidden idol which he can play up to the final 5 so he's guaranteed final 4. Oh happy day.
-Not so much for the others. Lisa is talking to Skupin and she blames God (ha!) no, she says they did pray that God's will be done and the door was closed to take out Malcolm so she has to believe Malcolm was supposed to stay (OMG, I just noticed how bad her eyebrows are growing back in - ew, I hate that I'm one of those girls - but wow, pan out a bit buddy, do a girl a favour.)
-Skupin is talking to Malcolm and they both hate to get rid of Carter, he's such a nice kid - but he's too much of a threat - he's won immunity twice (oh, don't keep Abi around.) Carter comes up and interrupts them and they basically tell him they were talking about him - he makes as impassioned a plea as we've ever seen from him, "You'd keep Abi over me? Out of respect for this game and respect for me, keep me around." He leaves it in there hands, "I respect you guys." They respect him, respect his game play (RESPECT!)
-Carter is kinda whiny, I can see why we haven't seen much of him in confessionals - He whines at the camera, Lisa, Skupin, Malcolm and Denise are stand up people and Abi has been really mean to people in this game so, I mean, take me further in this game than someone you guys don't respect as a competitor.
-They are all sitting around the fire and Abi starts to stir it up. She targets Lisa because she knows how to weed out the weak. Throws the fact that Lisa said her word was worth more than a million dollars in her face. Points out now she's saying she may vote for Denise in the final 4 - which Denise would not begrudge her that - but Abi says, so now the money's worth more than your word. (Lisa can be so easy. She is upset.)
-Denise even asks Abi if she would put the conversation to rest but nope, "easy for you to say, you're already in the final 4" - Denise tries to talk but Abi is true to form - talking over people is how she gets her point across... and then she gets to her point - says she'll have to play her hidden immunity idol (Ahh, the whole charade was to bring up the non-existent idol. Is anybody really buying that?)
-Malcolm has to walk away - he says since the beginning of time everybody has wanted Abi out - she's like a soul-sucker around camp, she's like the Dementors from Harry Potter (and they have no chocolate! I love the Potter reference, in an earlier age, she could have been compared to a Blair Warner from Facts of Life.)
-Abi takes off on her own and Carter apologizes to Lisa for Abi's bullying. The rest of them just can't believe her. Lisa says she's over it, she can glare all she likes, it's not going to help her at this point.
-Carter is hoping Abi acting like... well Abi, will help his case for staying.
-Denise says her behaviour is not a cultural thing, it's her personality. She just gave them the perfect reason to vote her out. The histrionics, passive-aggressive, martyr is the culture of Abi.
-Abi takes off on her own, trying to fashion a fake immunity idol. She says if you tell a lie long enough, people will believe it, she's even starting to believe it.
-Malcolm says he's considering voting off a little annoying Brazilian girl over a fit, well-like guy just for the sake of his own moral - he knows its wrong strategically (but if it saves your sanity? That's always been part of the game, what can you endure and overcome to win a million dollars?)
Malcolm, "If Abi goes home tonight, it's because she's a b*tch."
TRIBAL COUNCIL
Penner is still acting like he's mad, or he's looking very serious (whatever.)
Jeff asks Malcolm - Did you really think you needed Immunity today or did you feel safe?
-I felt pretty safe, we have our solid four, but that doesn't mean I'm not happy to have this around my neck.
Remind me who the 4 are.
-Myself, Denise, Skupin and Lisa.
So Carter, if this group is tight, it's you or Abi going tonight.
-Yeah, and I don't understand, especially when there has been all this talk about taking the person who deserves it over the person you feel you can beat. So I feel like I've played a game worthy of being taken to the final 5 and given the chance to fight another day, because I deserve it.
Skupin, Carter is making a pretty simple case, take me because I deserve it (yes, that is what he just said.)
-I don't know if Carter is more of a son or a friend to me but we clicked. To even consider Carter, it's almost like voting out my own kid (but he's not your kid and a million dollars would help feed the 5 you have.)
Lisa, at this point, who do you want to sit beside, someone who deserves to be there or someone you think you can beat?
-Not batting an eye, Lisa says she'd sit beside someone she can beat (really? B-bye Carter.) Yes, I'd like to be nobler than that, but why make it harder than you have to?
Abi, surprised that it's even a consideration that you won't be going home tonight?
-I'm surprised but I have a huge (something) tonight (I have no idea what that word was). I found the 4th hidden immunity idol (that has Malcolm and Lisa smirking - they know she's lying) and she's going to play it tonight, so she doesn't think she's going home.
Is this new information or is this something that's been talked about Denise?
-None of us have seen it, none of us have seen any clues so all we can go on is what Abi is sharing with us.
Malcolm, does it help Abi's game or hurt it by not showing this idol?
-We've seen Abi play for a long time with an idol and I think she's smart enough to know if she has one she should be leveraging it more than she is.
-Abi - I'm just more protective of myself at this point after hearing I'm the most unlikable person on the tribe (and that hasn't changed.)
Denise, how's your relationship with Abi? (Oh, he is such an imp.)
-The tension is still there but it's... it's... improved.
(Abi rolls her eyes - yeah, that was quite a stretch for a neutral word.)
So has it improved so much that you actually see her differently? You know what, you deserve to go to the end.
-My f... probably not. (Penner was smiling at that.) Because that would be changing my whole strategy that I had coming into the game. So, no, I can't say that has changed.
Abi why does that make you laugh? That's not good news for you.
-She does the passive aggressive thing, I don't think I'm bringing tension - Jeff explains what baggage is... I guess (shrugs a mean girl 'whatever'.)
Denise, do you think Abi can win this game if she gets to the end?
-I don't think she can win this game. People are looking for more of a balanced game between the social, the strategic, the physical and I don't think Abi's brought those fully to the table.
(Abi just frowns and does a small eye roll.)
Time to Vote:
Carter votes for Abi.
Abi votes for Carter
Tallying the votes:
No one plays a hidden immunity idol... because Abi doesn't have one.
Carter - 1
Abi - 1
Carter - 2, 3, 4... Arghhh! (I hate it when the hated are kept around to torture us all.)
And with Carter leaving us tonight, Lee G, Chiquita D and Drew C are out of the pool. (I hope that doesn't ruin Christmas :)
Next week: Abi is targeting Lisa again - she points out that Lisa is on the bottom of their 4 person alliance and Lisa is thinking of using Abi to help herself.
Carter's final whine: I can't believe they want to keep Abi over me, I can understand it but it doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. (Wah!) Playing with their heads, not their hearts at this point (as they should be, as they should be.)
Have a great rest of the week everyone.
Don't forget the Amazing Race finale is this Sunday Dec 9th and we have one Survivor episode next Wednesday, then the Survivor finale will be next Sunday, the 16th.
