Please Feed Her Now

Somehow I found myself a fan of Russell again in this episode, as well as Sandra... and even Parvati a little, though let's not get too far ahead of ourselves.

When the teams showed up for the reward challenge, the Heroes (well, Rupert really) were quick to notice that with Coach gone, the "girls' alliance" must be pretty strong! Hee. Cue shot of Russell w/ smug look on face.

Then the Villain girls went on to win the reward. It was one where they have to balance on little foot pegs....which are better for little feet, right? The Villains correctly sat out Russell. You had to order your team from weakest to strongest, which led Rupert to go on and on about how he's the strongest.... Ugh. Someone please vote him out soon. I can barely stand him. Delightful to see Courtney's impression of him, though. Anyways, the Villains got a big feast from the (warning: product placement) Outback Steakhouse & Parvati found a clue to the hidden immunity idol in her napkin. She shared it with Danielle, but not with Russell, who she noted is on a "need to know basis.... and right now he doesn't need to know." The girl, like her or hate her, is pretty clever. Of course, she and Danielle found the idol the next morning.

Meanwhile, over in the Hero camp, JT gets this brilliant idea to smuggle their hidden immunity idol to Russell on the other team because he is clearly on the wrong end of an all-girl alliance. Hee. Not only that, he writes this big long note about how he hopes he can trust Russell and how Russell can prove he's not a villain. Gasp! This proves that no one had seen the last season, because no one in their right mind would appeal to Russell's "non-villain" side. There isn't one. Of course, Russell shared the note with Parvati (and later Danielle & Jerri) and the two of them had a good laugh about how ridiculous it was. It was totally jr. high with a note at the bottom telling R. to "destroy immediately after reading" and to "read in complete private" ... Ha! It is the one time I didn't mind Parvati's laugh... I would have laughed too. And Russell.... "Not only do I find all the idols, now people are just giving them to me!"

So obviously the exchange was made at the immunity challenge. Also the Villains lost to the Heroes - and they even had to do a puzzle! Way to go!

Even though JT's note "instructed" Russell to vote out Parvati, we knew that wasn't about to happen. It was between Sandra & Courtney. It looked like Courtney, then she made a plea to Parvati saying that she'd be loyal and would be able to get in with Amanda after the merge. Parvati did her best to sway the group, but it turned out that Courtney's number was up. She was voted out and left with a big hug for Sandra, pretty proud of herself, with some sort of crazy farewell like, "Later, Bitches!" Was that it? I couldn't get it? Did you? Let me know. Anyways, in her final words she said that she did pretty good making it to the jury and got pretty far for the skinny girl and that she didn't completely hate anyone... and that she was looking forward to being all dressed up nice on the jury while all the "other bitches" would be jealous... Hee. Something like that. I will miss Courtney. She's sassy and sarcastic and delightful. But really, we all knew she wasn't winning this thing, right? Now please, for god's sake get her a hamburger.

The final things to note about Tribal Council were that Jeff only really asked one question - Who is trustworthy? And it prompted all kinds of stuff... there was some serious girl nonsense between Sandra and Danielle. Danielle was being the girl, saying to Sandra something crazy about how Sandra never was nice to her and did everything Rob said and blah blah blah. Sandra correctly pointed out how it was no different than how Danielle allied herself with Russell, but Boobs McGee would have none of it and kept on with how mean Sandra was.... Ugh.

The other fun thing about Tribal Council was Coach. He was wearing....was it a kimono? A bathrobe? Smoking jacket? Wrap-dress? Unsure. Anyways, let's call it a kimono... and then he's got this GIANT feather hanging on his chest.... Who knows what kind of bird makes feathers that big, but really? NOW he's going to start being weird? Excellent. Nutbar. He and Courtney will have a fantastic time at Ponderosa.

Next week, the merge. Sandra gets some revenge by telling any Hero who'll listen that there is not an all-girl alliance, that Russell is in fact in charge, and who knows what else. She's clever and will flip immediately. Does that mean the Heroes + Sandra will get rid of a Villain? Super fun considering there are TWO hidden immunity idols in play.
