Survivorfest week 4!

Week 4 and G-Sizzle pimps out!

Back from tribal council, Ace showed some character by thinking of Sugar. "She hasn't eaten in three days." It would have been more touching if she hadn't been lounging in the comfort shack, pigging out on fresh fruits and working on her tan.

True to form, he followed it up with "I've got Sugar in my pocket!" Probably some roaches, too.

When Sugar did return, she confessed to spending time in the "Sugar Shack". She said that she quit looking for the idol because it was too hard to find. Probably not a bright move. Maybe after the third time, but the second?

Kota was busy catching fish. Electric fish as it turned out. I was skeptical, but here's the proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_catfish

Matty found an elephant! I wondered if the tribe knew the signs of an angry elephant. I'm pretty sure ripping trees out of the ground and throwing them around might be one of them.

Matty and Ace took the kayak for a closer look. My oldest daughter: "Those guys are frickin' idiots!"

I wonder if the other members of Fang realized that it wouldn't have taken much to erase two members of their tribe. If Randy was still around he probably would have jumped up, screamed and thrown a pineapple or something. Then taunted the guys in the kayak as they were gored. Is it any wonder that he's my favorite?

The reward challenge was interesting. Members of the tribe were to throw pieces of fruit through a hole in a fence to a partner. Members of the other tribe guarded the holes with a bat. The tribe with the most fruit by weight would win the challenge.

Winner would get...an herb garden. What a lame prize. Of course Bob started pumping his fist. What a dweeb. He'd probably be psyched to get a rain gauge, too.

Of the "blockers" I think only Ace may have played baseball. He swung the club like he knew what he was doing. That is, until he took a melon to his melon and went down.

GC was pathetic as usual. His first two tosses looked like he was serving up pitches to Bob. I doubt the throws would have even made it through the hole.

Kota adapted quickly and started throwing two pieces of fruit. This was the difference and they won by a small margin.

I feel sorry for Ace. He continues to step up for the important parts of the challenges, does well, individually, and the tribe still manages to lose.

Sugar was sent back to Exile Island and her Sugar Shack. Dan indicated "you might as well forward her mail there. No strategy, just comedy."

Jeff told Sugar that she could probably show him the way to the Sugar Shack. What a flirt.

Back at camp, Charlie I noticed Charlie was wearing 70s shorts. Very tacky.

Randy: "Did I kick ass or what?"

Sugar at Exile seemed to be eating better quality fruit than what I can get at the store. "I am definitely happy...and fat!"

Back at camp, Fang is cracking up. GC seemed to be completely losing it. Ace seemed amused to watch the carnage.

Tree mail, and it turns out that Matty reads like a third grader. At least he's good at spotting elephants.

Just before the challenge, GC went missing. Perhaps he was trying to round up some ho's. Kellie wonders if maybe he was eaten by a monkey. That would have been awesome.

Kellie cracks me up. Every sentence she utters seems to start with the word "dude".

The challenge was to roll wicker balls down a hill while blind-folded blockers use shields to try to stop the balls from going into goals. Callers help the blockers.

Ace defended for Fang, and Dan for Kota. Sugar was Ace's caller and Randy was Dan's.

Jeff instructs Charlie and Matty to grab their balls and head up the hill. Ahem. Someone really should have said something.

Sugar clearly wasn't up to this challenge. Or maybe she just didn't like telling Ace what to do. I don't think I heard her speak during the entire challenge.

The coup de grace was when Ace took a shield to the face. He's having a rough week.

The last round came with Kota up one point. Dan stopped his ball and Ace was moving toward his when Randy yelled "freeze, Ace! Right there!" And he did. And Sugar just stood there and shrugged. What was she thinking? What was he thinking?

Jeff told Fang they were headed for tribal again. He seemed to be getting irritated with them. You know you're in trouble when Jeff tells you you suck.

Back at camp, G-Sizzle told Matty he wanted to quit. That's no way for a pimp to talk!

Ace to Sugar "At some point soon I may call on you to use the idol." He sounded like Vito Corleone.

While Ace and Sugar were conversing, the rest of the tribe took the opportunity to go through Sugar's bag and found the immunity idol.

Crystal blurted "That makes her the most dangerous person right now in this game!" Yup, Sugar = dangerous. Gives you cavities, too.

She attempted to rally the rest of the tribe to blindside Sugar while they had the chance.

At tribal, Sugar called out GC for wanting to quit.

Jeff probed some more...GC looked like he was ready to cry. Sugar then did. I suspect it's all that pomegranate juice leaking out of her eyes.

GC confided that he was voting for Kellie because "he had to vote for somebody" Man, he can't even quit the game right!

Despite Crystal's assertion that Sugar needed to be blindsided, GC was voted off. GC indicated that he had the utmost respect for anyone who played the game and walked in his shoes. After four weeks I don't think I would want any part of his shoes.

See you next week on...Survivorfest!

Was anyone else as impressed as I was to see that Bob could turn his buff into a bow tie???
