Survivorfest week 5!
Matt and Kristina squared off on Redemption Island. The challenge was a cube puzzle. I swear I'd never last two minutes in Survivor the way the last few seasons have been. Nothing but puzzles, puzzles and more puzzles. What happened to challenges that involved swimming relays, feats of strength and women's mud wrestling?
The most entertaining part was Matt's dialogue with the observing Boston Rob while he was absolutely laying out Kristina. I think Rob's pretty smart and he is at least a little worried about what will happen if Matt makes his way back into camp.
Turns out that Kristina sucks at puzzles, too. Out goes the third person this season.
I like how Probst tries to keep the contestants all jazzed up: "The winner gets to continue to fight for a chance to win a million dollars..." I just wish he would have added: "The loser has to spend the next three weeks hanging out with Russell at the Survivor Cabana for Early Season Losers!"
Is it just me or does it seem like someone has started to slip Phillip his medication? He seems almost normal compared to where he was at mentally the past two episodes. How disappointing. He only pranced around in his plum-colored undies spear-hunting crabs a little.
It was a cold night and the tribe had to huddle together for warmth which led to this interesting exchange.
Rob: "That dahn Phillip slept with his knee jammed inta my back awl night!"
Grant: Um. Dude...that wasn't his knee."
The challenge was a somewhat familiar one...a caller led his/her blindfolded tribe through a maze to collect bags of, you guessed it, puzzle pieces. The caller then had to solve the puzzle.
Boston Rob called and solved the puzzle for his tribe, Stephanie for hers. Turns out Stephanie is none too good at word puzzles. I guess they didn't practice that much at Manson Manor. Didn't want to skip mad stabbing 101, no doubt.
Boston Rob seems to have really improved his game. He completely owns his tribe, has a hidden immunity idol and practically owns the portions of the challenges he participates in. It'll be interesting to see if he can see the blind side when it comes.
Back at camp Rob, Grant and Rob notice an idol clue hidden in the coffee. Rob played it masterfully. He managed to swap that clue with the first one he used to find the idol and even helped Glen hide it.
Back at camp Russell-no-More they blamed a fun game of blamestorming over the lost challenge. They eventually concluded that Stephanie is an idiot. Dave concluded that from that point on, he would be responsible for all puzzles. PERIOD! I can't wait to see how this explodes into tragedy.
I'm telling you that weeks of hunger take their toll and make people who they truly are...Dave is going to turn into a real ass very, very soon.
Anyone else find themselves wondering if Julie could hide an immunity idol in her dimples? There's an Internet rumor going around that Johnny Fairplay will spring out of one of them just in time for the merge.
Tribal council was pretty lame. The only mystery was which of Russell's coven would end up getting smacked down by Matt on Redemption Island the next morning. Strangely it ended up being Krista.
See you next week on...Survivorfest!
