Now's the Time to Start Scheming
Last week Jason had a little reprieve when they voted out his only remaining ally, Julia, instead of him. Jason was able to sew some seeds of dissent against Tai that may have taken some root.
Dara - Night 29
-Jason starts working on Cydney and Michele as soon as they're back at camp - telling them that Tai and Aubry are going to be hard to beat, they'll be better off against him in the end.
-Tai is working it too, he tells Joe & Aubry that his advantage is an extra vote which he can use at the next tribal council and then the one after that he'll play his hidden idol so they are guaranteed at least final four. Joe is just along for the ride as usual, sounds good to him, but Aubry is nervous at how powerful Tai may be in this game.
-Tai tells the camera that he thinks Michele may be a bigger threat than Jason at this point - she's a more well-rounded player and he's gunning for her.
Dara - Day 30
-Tai digs up a big ol' nasty grub and feeds it to Mark, the chicken. Jason laments that everyone loves the damn chicken. Mark seems to be the only one guaranteed to make it to day 39. (I kinda love the pet chicken, but if I was out there it'd probably have been dinner by now. Just saying.)
-Joe has no respect for Jason, he's vulgar and a baby when things don't go his way, no swaying the old guy. Jason says hes going to play the only card he has left, the lazy card (uh, I think hes been playing that one for a while.)
REWARD CHALLENGE
They are divided into two teams of three. On Jeff's go one person from each team will swim out through a couple obstacles to reach the floating maze board. once all three people are on the board one will have to retrieve a ball and they must work together by tilting and moving the ball through the maze to a hole in the centre. First team to get all three balls in the holes wins reward of a picnic lunch at an animal refuge where they will also get to interact with the animals. (cool)
-Teams were: Joe, Cydney and Aubry vs Jason, Michele and Tai.
Apparently Jason's lazy card does not apply to challenges because he dominated and his team won the reward quite handily.
Reward
-There was no strategy talk that they showed during the Reward, just Jason acted like a normal human being and talked about how much his autistic daughter loves animals and seeing him interacting with an elephant and monkeys was going to make him the coolest dad. Tai is liking this Jason and it confirms he wants to take Michele out first.
Back at camp: Joe is having a temper tantrum after losing the challenge. He's telling Cydney to get off her butt and help him gather firewood, he's super short with Aubry for not helping him with the fire exactly how he wanted her to. It doesn't sit very well, especially with Cydney and Aubry is in the buffer position between these two - which is starting to wear on her as well.
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE
-They have to hold on to a rope attached to a very wobbly table, then they have to pick up blocks one at a time, walk them from the block table to the wobbly table and stack them to spell the word IMMUNITY.
-If at any time you drop your blocks, you have to start over... and you guessed it everyone dropped their blocks at some point, except Cydney who took a slow but steady approach and was able to hold on, beating Jason at the end for her first Individual Immunity.
Dara - Day 32
-Tai has decided that Michele has to go but he doesn't have time to discuss with everyone and just announces it has to be Michele as she is coming to join their talk. This high-handed direction from Tai did not sit well. Joe says that he does not agree, he's rather vote Jason... and then Michele comes and joins them and the just talk about staying five strong to vote Jason.
-On their own, Aubry tells Tai that she agrees with him about Michele.
-Tai goes and tells Jason to vote for Michele - but Jason doesn't trust Tai, he wants to vote for Joe.
-Cydney talks to Joe and they are in agreement that Jason has to go - she will not be intimidated into following someone else's agenda.
-Cydney goes and tells Michele that Tai wants her out - but that Cydney has her back.
-Michele doesn't have time to scramble so she's planning her attack at Tribal Council.
-Cydney goes and talks to Aubry about how she will not be dictated to, blah blah blah... Aubry is trying to please them both and it's breaking her down a bit. (There were tears - can't we all just get along?)
TRIBAL COUNCIL
-Michele totally called out Tai and he was shocked that anyone had told her his plan.
-He just gets himself in deeper when he tries to defend himself and both Michele and Cydney are kind of tag teaming him saying how he's got idols and an advantage and he's trying to dictate how they vote... and they don't appreciate it.
-Tai starts saying there is a big group and a smaller group within the big group and they jump on that too - if you're not in the smaller group you're on the outs (Tai has got to stop talking, he's too honest and not good at manipulating people.)
-Michele won't let him get a word in, she's calling him out that she thought they had come to a consensus but now she finds she's not included in this smaller group... and she starts the Jason speech about Tai turning on every alliance he's been in, why would they listen to him.
(And I'm sorry, her voice is just so annoying, what is that weird inflection? Ugh, I won't miss Michele when it's her turn to go.)
-Jason is just staying out of this until Jeff pulls him in - he says he's just keeping quiet, maybe they'll forget out him tonight.
Time to Vote:
Michele votes Jason
Tai votes Michele
Jeff says he's going to tally the votes and Tai stops him - says he wants to play his advantage. He's going to put in his extra vote... and it was for Michele.
Tallying the Votes:
Tai did not play his hidden immunity idol (he wasn't on the block tonight.)
Votes:
Jason - 1
Michele - 1, 2
Jason - 2
Joe - 1 (that was Jason)
Jason - 3, 4... and Jason is the 11th person voted out and next member of the jury.
They successfully got Tai to burn his advantage and they got rid of Jason, which took: Sunnie C., Cara & Alex L., and Ethan G. out of the pool.
Next week: Tai feels like Aubry turned on him and so he buddies up to Michele (Tai is the flipper king.)
Jason's final thoughts: He still loves this game - he never stopped fighting - he's proud of the way he played, he's proud of the game he played and he thinks his family will be too (uh, you were pretty sexist, that might not play great with your family of girls - but whatever, we don't have to look at those awful tattoos anymore, yay!)
Have a great rest of your week everyone,
