It started off with a little discussion between Boston Rob & Russell. Russell tries to "just get along" with BR... but we all know that he doesn't really want to get along, he just wants BR to THINK that he wants to get along. BR has none of it - tells Russell to watch his back because "people" are miffed that he went off looking for the idol (which itself is stupid, but that's for another discussion.) So Russell says, "No, YOU better watch YOUR back." Then Rob walks off with this.... "Good talk, Russell." Hee.
Then the big news. When they arrive at the challenge, Jeff informs the teams that BOTH of them will be going to Tribal Council to vote someone off. BOTH teams would have the opportunity to have someone win individual immunity. And the two winners of individual immunity would go head-to-head to see which team would get to win reward - hot dogs (also known as "haw-dogs" in my house) and the chance to listen in on the other team's Tribal Council. FUN!
The Heroes go first. Candice wins immunity! And good thing for her, because it doesn't look good for her. No one trusts her. But she's wiry and strong in a challenge that had them going up and over and around and through and obstacle course where they're attached to a rope & they have to follow the rope (remember that one?) James did OK considering he's A) Big and B) got a bum knee. But he made sure to point out that Colby was beaten by "a cripple and a fat dude" (Rupert. Heh.). Poor Colby. More on that later.
A pretty good race for the Villains. Boston Rob won it. Were you happy to see BR win? I was. I'm pulling for Boston Rob. Yeah, I've also got him in the pool, but still. Then Rob went up against Candice and won, though to her credit, Candice wasn't that far behind. So the Villains would have to go to Tribal first, vote someone out, then get haw-dogs.
So this is the big story. I'm going to lay it out for you in point form.
- Everyone knows Russell has the hidden immunity idol.
- Russell knows everyone knows he has the idol.
- Russell figures that everyone will vote for Parvati
- Russell tells Parvati & Danielle that he'll give Parvati the idol.
- The other 6 devise a clever scheme where they will split the vote between Russell & Parvati, 3 votes each.
- That would force a tie, and a re-vote, where the idol could no longer be used.
- Then, all 6 would vote out Parvati, stupid laugh and all.
- Brilliant, right?
- Almost.
- Russell pulls Tyson aside and says he's sick of Parvati & is going to vote for her.
- Tyson BELIEVES Russell.
- Tyson, who had just said that the plan "isn't rocket science" and should work.... figures he might change his vote to Parvati.
- Why? Why? Why? Ugh.
- True to his word, Russell goes to play the idol, then gives it up to Parvati
- When he does this, he makes a big deal about how he's honouring his word, blah blah blah, clearly playing right to the Dragonslayer, who surely ate it right up.
- Parvati made a big deal about it and made me want to punch her in the face. "Oh, me? Oh, thank you Russell. What a gentleman!" Barf.
- And yes, Tyson switched his vote.
- This is because he is stupid.
- So instead of a re-vote, it was Tyson who went home, thanks to only 3 votes from Russell, Parvati and Boobs McGee.... errr... Danielle.
- Tyson, in his last words admits that it's his own fault that he's going home, but asserts that he's "still awesome." No. You're not. If you were awesome, you wouldn't have been so stupid.
- Say it with me and then sigh. STUPID! Sigh....
Right, so then on to the dogs (made me want one.... Yum.) And then listening to the Heroes' Tribal Council. Again, James with the meanness. Now Colby is the victim. On and on about how Colby can't win anything and his muscles are gone and he's like Superman in a fat-suit.... To which Colby replies something like, "Well it's harder being me and not winning anything..." Backing it up a bit, Colby had earlier told his team that they should just have a nice day, he knew he was going home, so why bother scrambling, let's just get along. Meanwhile, the team contemplated keeping the crippled James. So Amanda tells him he has to prove to the team that he's ok. So, he has a race with JT. JT wins. Amanda also informs James of the "banana etiquette" where he should offer the rest of the team bananas if he's having one (or four.) Hee. As you'd figure, James has no idea he's eating WAY more than the rest of the team.... I tells ya, this sh*t is B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Hee. (have been waiting a long time to use that one.)
So, back to Tribal Council... it was James who got voted out. Colby = very surprised. And again, I wanted to punch Amanda in the face. The sad puppy eyes make me nuts. Stop it. And then her love fest with James when he got up to go made me just about hurl. Good riddance, I say. Mean people, even though they look nice in canola oil, should just not get to win a million dollars.
I personally hope for a Rob vs. Russell final two. Wouldn't that be fun?
