[Whimsy]

Quote

In a shocking double tribal council, two castaways are blindsided. Also, a revenge plan begins to brew around camp after several castaways were left out of the last tribal council vote.

This is you LIVE CHAT thread

[LadyChatts]

I just need Noelle and Owen to make it through this episode.  Preferably someone named James, Cody, Ryan, or Jesse can go, but I really want those two to make it.

And once again, Sami wants to make a move, take control, and take out the top alliance.  Is he waiting until he's the only one left outside of the top group to make a move?  I wonder if he's regretting voting off Dwight.

“Previously, on Survivor” is much better than random flashbacks from last week’s episode.  Stop it, show.

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, Owen is pissed at James. I love it.

James is so annoying. 

[LadyChatts]

James says he's being cordial to Owen despite Owen playing the game and writing James's name down, but doesn't understand why Owen would be mad at him for lying to him.  Nice logic there.

[Carey]

James vs Owen.  Might be the only S43 highlight.  Sorta sad, hilarious, meh "feud" here

[DEL901]

Wow, not messing around…straight to a challenge. 

[mojoween]

Peachy?  Uh, random English accent?  Da fuck?

[KaveDweller]

Does James think Owen was the second vote for Ryan last week?

[Lady Calypso]

Oh no, already at an immunity? We're not even five minutes in.

[Straycat80]

I have to agree with the guys James is acting like The Godfather, but that just means James is playing the game. Step it up Owen . 

[Carey]

Thought it was an current rare solo RC, but forgot what the episode featured

[LadyChatts]

Dividing into two teams of 5, someone on each team will win immunity.  Not sure how I'm feeling about this but I guess it'll depend how the teams are divided.

[Lamb18]

I feel like Sami's chyron saying Pet Cremator should include "at the Pet Sematary."

[DEL901]

Ryan and James are on different teams?   The wonderful possibilities 

[LadyChatts]

So the teams are Cassidy, Jesse, Ryan, Gabler, and Cody (red) and Noelle, Owen, James, Karla, and Sami (blue).  

[Lady Calypso]

Oh yes, another physical immunity challenge involving holding a pole.

[Carey]

Peachy jinx!

[DEL901]

I just noticed the different height platforms to stand on. 

[Lamb18]

Yay! James is out!

[Carey]

There you go Karla!

[Lady Calypso]

So happy for Karla for winning immunity.

[Pepper the Cat]

Dang Karla! You go,girl!

[mojoween]

What about the big girls, indeed.  Kick ass, Karla.

[Straycat80]

Cody wins. 

[LadyChatts]

Cody wins immunity for his team, also wins reward for his team and they get to go to TC last because he was the last one standing.

[Carey]

Cody BIG winner.  Ryan sorta conceded there

[Lady Calypso]

And Ryan is so focused on Cody's ball that he drops his own.

[DEL901]

Better Cody than Ryan.  

And yeah Karla with the injured hand.  

[LadyChatts]

I'm glad, I hope this means he goes.  I'm a little nervous for Cassidy being the only woman on that tribe.  Gabler could be a target for being on the bottom, but I worry that Cody/Jesse/Ryan are just going to pick between those two as to who leaves.

[Lady Calypso]

So, with how we're already finished the challenge, even with two tribals, looks like we're having an intense tribal or two.

[iMonrey]

Looks like Owen is toast.

[jsm1125]

I think Owen and Noelle are fucked. Even if they get Sami to vote with them, Karla could play her idol on James.

Now is the time for Cody to make that big move he wants to do.  He only has to convince 2 people to vote with him and Ryan will be toast. 

[Straycat80]

These TC’s should be interesting. James will gun for Owen.

Noelle has her steal a vote which could work in her favor, but James has the KIP and could take it from her.  So if she is going to use it, she needs to be careful about it.  This would be the perfect time for Sami to make a big move like he keeps talking about, and it's clear that Owen has no love lost for James.  My feeling is it might come down between those two.

I'm also not so sure Karla would risk her idol on James.  She's not as good of a player as I thought she was if she does do that.

No one knows about her idol and I think she is too savvy to waste it on a wild card like James.  He could decide to get mad at her for not telling him about it and go after her next.

[Lady Calypso]

Looks like Cassidy is the target but we'll see if it sticks.

[LadyChatts]

And speaking of people not being smart at this game, Ryan tells Gabler they can use Cody as decoy vote to tell Cassidy about.  Gabler reminds him that Cody has immunity.

Oh please Ryan, you aren't targeting Cassidy to make a big move and break up Coco.  You are holding a grudge because she targeted you.

Yeah she can't at this point anyway.  Especially on this season

If it sticks for 40 minutes then it'll be either amazing or validates the feel of the season

[LadyChatts]

Okay, I was thinking Cassidy was going to be a red herring, but now she's getting the personal story package.  I'm nervous for her now.

And Cody is kind of weasley at being indecisive.  

[iMonrey]

Kassidy's very special episode moment. She's toast.

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, Cassidy getting a sob story may mean her demise, even if Ryan is the other target. Please no.

[KaveDweller]

Cassidy seems to have been screwed by this split tribal thing.

[dizzyd]

The cass back story is not a good omen for her survival today. 

[MissR2424]

The editing seems so predictable 

[Lady Calypso]

James is a terrible liar.

[LadyChatts]

So I wonder if Karla is all about Coco strong, or if she's just with James.  Because I wonder what she'll think if Cassidy or Ryan leaves from the other tribe.  And Ryan doesn't want to be accused of riding Coco's coattails to the end, so he may not want to work with her going forward.

[Carey]

I disagree with what Karla said.  If I knew I was going home, that would be great.  Either I'll feel comfortable that I know I'm done or that I can make a successful move for someone else

[iMonrey]

Ugh. I hate James.
