SHAZAAAAAM!
The Challenges

For Reward: The hot and miserable castaways got a break from physical competition and instead were faced with a question & answer game.
The first question was “Who on your team is most in need of nourishment?” Jamie & Danni won that one and each got a tasty green apple.
The next was “Who on your tribe smells the worst?“. Bobby Jon and Gary won that round and each got to take a 5 gallon shower.
(I thought it was funny that Bobby Jon seemed to know he was the funkiest)
The next round was “Pick a man and a woman from your tribe who you think most deserves a scenic picnic lunch“. Margaret, Judd, Gary and Amy won that round and left the game to enjoy their meal.
The last question was “Who on your tribe has the most tribal spirit?“. Brian and Cindy were voted as winner of that round and then SHAZAAAAM….tribal split! Brian and Cindy got to remain in their tribes and everyone else was mixed up.
The new Nakum tribe now included Stephenie, Jamie, Rafe, Lydia, Brooke, Cindy, Margaret and Judd. The new Yaxha tribe now included Bobby Jon, Blake, Brandon, Danni, Brian, Gary and Amy.

For Immunity: Both tribes had to paddle out on the lake to retrieve three bags filled with Maya war clubs, then race back to shore and, one at a time, throw the clubs at targets placed 30, 40 and 50 feet away. The first tribe to break all three targets would win Immunity.
This was another close challenge that ended with Brandon winning it for Yaxha. Judd may have messed up Nakum’s chances of winning this one with his need to be a chest-beating macho man and save the day. He did connect with his target but it took an awful long time during which his team lost the lead. Hmmmm….not so macho, methinks.

Camp Dysfunction
In Yaxha, the two issues I saw were Amy’s ankle and Gary’s secret identity crisis. Amy is hurting and everyone knows it. She will be on the chopping block the next time they lose Immunity unless she saves her ass somehow. Danni is absolutley going to mess with Gary and I, for one, will savor every minute of it. I loved the exchange the new tribe had where everyone said what they did for a living and Gary lied- again. Danni had such a smirk on her face when she asked him where he went to school. I love that she did not totally pull his NFL card. It’s going to be a s-l-o-w death for the Gar-ster, I predict.
Over in Nakum, the new tribe was spilt 4 to 4. Stephenie and Jamie (The Asshat) were able to woo Judd over to their side with some East coast love. This was not a hard thing to do as Judd seems to be running on fumes in the wit department.

Tribal Council
Steph’s plan worked. They got Judd to vote their way and Beautiful Brooke was voted out at Tribal Council. It was an understandable vote but I’m kind of sad to see her go. She was a smart girl that was doing well. She just got caught in the crossfire. Hell, it happens.

What did you think of this week’s episode?
If you enjoyed this post, make sure you subscribe to my RSS feed!




















With this kind of recap I don’thave to watch the show to be in the loop. lol
I LOVE your recap!
I don’t like Margaret as much, and I hated to see Brooke go.
I think Jeff was out of line when he said what he said to Stephanie during tribal counsel. All & all the show was good but I didn’t like the way they were mixed up…..but that is why the show is so interesting and makes me watch it every week.
So did you watch “Lost” this week? You may be the only one who isn’t. :p
You can buy the first season on DVD now. Get it. Now. lol
Hmmm. Based on your re-cap, must’ve been a great show. I watched ER. Luca is HOT!
I’m still confused, but I am catching on. These are Gilligan’s Island re-runs, right?
i don’t watch it but those girls in that top photo are very skinny, were they like that, cuz they need more than an apple.
I thought it was a good episode, but I am beginning to think Stephanie is cursed!
I have a feeling that this won’t be the last time the tribes get mixed up this season….
Okay, thanks for explaining it all to me.
Guess who was slightly interested in the episode last night. A certain husband.
I loved it! I can’t wait to see what happens with Gary & Danni, since she knows his secret. Will she out him?
We don’t get it over here, but it sounds wacky.
I’ll let you know after I watch it ;0) Thanks for the preview…no surprises on this end…hopefully my girl is on the winning side this time!! Go Steph!
I will not tell you what SWD and I were guessing about the promos for the show (e.g. “…never happened before on Survivor!”
. I will tell you that it involved the monkey and we were wrong. 
Have you seen this? http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor11/show/ep04/strikeback.php
Past survivors members blog about each episode. Some of it is kind of funny.
Have a great weekend!
I am “immune” from this show!
LOL about Gary’s slow death at the hands of Danni. Sean and I were saying the same thing when we watched that.
I also cracked up when Judd got all confident and said “these people just need to get out of my jungle”. LMAO at running on fumes in the wit department.
This season is making me laugh so hard.
Great review Momma K! Have a loverly weekend there.
I think Bobby Jon got a lot of comments about his…pungent aroma on the LAST adventure…
*gag*
I’m so glad I can come here & find out what happened on the last half of the show. *smooch*
Cruised here through BlogExplosion, have you entered the CBS Survivor Search contest yet. If not I have some pics on my blog given to me by Ethan Zohn,feel free to use one to enter
I really need to start watching Survivor again. I was such an addict in the beginning, but haven’t watched since Ethan won. And after that, I just quit watching. Your updates are grand, and have certainly stimulated my interest. I think I’ll go to the website and read the little bios on the players, and get back into the thick of it.
Hey! Survivor was good…I enjoyed the reward challenge…My fav reward challenge is when they do the food auction…Anyways does anyone else feel badly for Steph?? I am still rootin for her!! TTYL
Here I am! Late as usual… I loved last week, and didn’t hate to see Brooke go. I don’t actually know who I am rooting for yet, but I am loving every minute of it. Great assessment, as usual.
