S45.E06: I'm Not Batman, I'm the Canadian LIVE CHAT

[truthaboutluv]

So Kaleb said the episode title - yeah he's going. Revealing Bruce's idol was good but I don't think it really swayed anything. His only hope right now is that a shot in the dark actually works. Remind me, it has worked once for someone right? 

[Lady Calypso]

With such an early Tribal Council, this better be a super intense one. It's weird, though, because Austin/Drew have the advantages that would cause a lot of chaos so is it just gonna be 10 minutes of talking and MAYBE a SITD play? It seems a bit lackluster if it's just that with a long TC.

I think Kendra's not wrong when she says that Kaleb is a dangerous player. But, I mean, it's between a Lulu and Reba so Belo would still stay strong. Her wanting Kaleb gone makes sense to me, at least.

I think what Belo doesn't realize they are doing is that this will drive Kaleb (if he survives) and Emily to want to work with Reba.  It doesn't matter if they lose J, they will still have 5 Rebas, plus 2 Lulus.  Belo will only have 5 OG members.  I think they are still playing too much of a team game.

But I definitely agree about Kaleb, and see why Sabiyah viewed him as a threat.  Since TC is starting early this might be a big one.  I still hope we get a blindside on Belo and Kaleb survives.  Him telling Reba about Bruce's idol might have turned the tide in his favor with them 

[Lantern7]

I hope Kaleb can escape.

SITD has never worked correctly.  At least to save someone-I'm trying to remember, did Jaime get a safety last season?  But she had no votes against her.

Jaime got safety, but she wasn't getting votes, anyway. She got paranoid and used it and it worked, but she wasn't going that Tribal.

If Jeff had a chance to create his heaven on earth, you'd see a final four of Russell, Dalton, Bruce, and Coach

Okay, I remember that because it seemed super random she played it.  I have to think production was mad because someone got a safe and yet it didn't even matter.

[Lantern7]

Haven’t heard “tushies” in an age either.

I think your forgetting Culpepper.

I think just about every Ratu member in their exit interview indicated that Jamie was a big target for a while before that tribal council, so it wasn’t too crazy that she played her SITD. Why production buried that? Your guess is as good as mine.

We have the discounted version.

I’m waiting for the whispering to start.

[LadyChatts]

I really hope Kaleb doesn't talk too much and get himself voted out.  He might be doing just that.

[Lady Calypso]

Already getting to the vote with about 8 minutes left.

Yep, Kaleb's playing his SITD.

[Pepper the Cat]

For a group,of people who have had very little food for 13 days they all,look very healthy 

[Lantern7]

Is there anything obviously wrong with J.?

[Straycat80]

Voting already? Something else is going to happen. 

[LadyChatts]

Now I'm worried for Kaleb.  I think he might have gotten himself voted out with that, if they weren't already planning on it.

[MerBearHou]

I admire Kaleb’s boldness.  It may be dangerous but I respect that he had to plead his case and did so eloquently.  We shall see…

[KaveDweller]

Kinda unfair the Austin can "Sacrifice his vote" in a time when he can't get voted out.

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, this is nervewracking.

Please let it be a successful SITD.

[LadyChatts]

Yeah, this is very early for a vote.  Commercial break is probably incoming.

[Pepper the Cat]

Yes!

[Lady Calypso]

IT WAS SUCCESSFUL!

That says for J Maya, but so happy for Kaleb!

[LadyChatts]

SITD.  Hope this works.  I don't want Kaleb to leave.

[Lantern7]

Why are some of you ahead of me?

[Lady Calypso]

Holy shit, EVERYONE voted for Kaleb, except for Emily!

[dizzyd]

Woohoo!

[MerBearHou]

Just now, Lantern7 said:

I was about to say the same thing!

[Straycat80]

Kaleb is safe! Yes! 

[Lady Calypso]

Wait, no, Emily also voted Kaleb!

[LadyChatts]

Yay!  Finally a successful SITD.  Now will it be for nothing is the question.

Oh J is pissed.

[Lantern7]

J, not partaking in Kaleb’s good fortune. I feel for her.

[Lady Calypso]

I'm surprised Emily went along with the group, but I also get it, as she didn't want to make herself a target.

[LadyChatts]

I really wish Emily had targeted a true threat.

I also wish Jeff wouldn't give them a moment to re-strategize.  Make them go vote.

Canadian vs American maybe 

[Lantern7]

Oh, wow. Unanimous vote negated. That’s insane.

Aaaaaaaand the whispering begins.

[dizzyd]

Ah Emily how could ya!?!

[MerBearHou]

How will he feel when the joy wears off and he realizes everyone, even Emily, voted against him?  

[Lamb18]

So Emily voted for Kaleb?

[Lantern7]

Just now, dizzyd said:

And it might just cost her. #lulucurse

[LadyChatts]

I get why Emily voted for Kaleb, but dang, this might backfire on her now.  

[Straycat80]

Here goes the plotting and whispering. Can they vote Kaleb again? I missed the rules.

Nope, he has immunity now.

This is what I'm worried about going forward.  It bought him this TC, but will it buy him another?

[Lady Calypso]

 I fully get it. She talked about it earlier in the episode: she can't look like she's so close to Kaleb, hence why she couldn't push for him to stay that much. Since she knew the vote would be unanimous, she voted the obvious to avoid being a major target afterward.

I FULLY get Emily's position. I do not blame her; I just wish she had stuck with Kaleb and voted J out to have that on her resume. But probably would have made her a target, either way.

[Lamb18]

I hope Emily is safe!

[LadyChatts]

I'll be curious to hear from J Maya and see why Reba considered her such an outsider.  This is what annoys me about half the tribe being immune though.  

[Lantern7]

Damn. And J doesn’t make the jury.

That was insane. Y’all think Probst pulled a safe paper out for Kaleb?
