S45.E08: Following a Dead Horse to Water LIVE CHAT

[dizzyd]

I’ll take the small victory of Bruce losing his vote.

[Lantern7]

Ha! Bruce loses his vote! He should’ve hustled for that money!

[Straycat80]

Target on Bruce’s back. He might have to play his idol. 

[alexa]

So do they have teeth issues after leaving Survivor from not brushing their teeth for so long?  Seeing the toothbrush made me wonder.

[iMonrey]

That seemed like an awful big coincidence that Kellie said she wanted a margarita and that's what it happened to be.

[Carey]

That has to suck.  Had nothing and that advantage flipped.  Oh well.  Too bad, but not for me  HAHAHAHA!

One season they had tribal people show them how to clean their teeth with some kind of branch or something I don’t remember. 

[PaperTree]

Boston is the crazist place I ever drove in.  (includes Manhatten)

[LadyChatts]

So where do we stand with idols and advantages?  Austin and Bruce have idols, Drew has an advantage where he can leave TC before the vote is cast (I think tonight is the last night he can use it).  Am I missing anything?

I have to go there for my niece's college graduation in May and I am not looking forward to it.

I think those are it.  Unless something else occurs today

[iMonrey]

Just what Kendra needs. Alcohol.

[Lady Calypso]

I get why Emily is doing this, but she thinks she's closer to Drew/Austin than she actually is and it really sucks that she's spilling to Drew right now.

[LadyChatts]

I don't get why Emily is so drawn to Austin/Drew.  They will screw her over as soon as they can.

Of course she blabs to Drew about the women trying to make an alliance.

[KaveDweller]

No, Emily, Drew is just using you for a few votes!

[Straycat80]

Emily is the only Lulu left. She might be on the bottom of a girls alliance. 

[LadyChatts]

Drew's basically saying in his TH why Emily shouldn't be trusting him.  He's in the Reba 4, which does not include her.  Of course everyone wants Bruce gone so her spilling this really doesn't do much.

Too much talk about Bruce going home already.  I'm nervous it won't happen.

[Lady Calypso]

Urg, that's slimy and a weird manipulation tactic from Drew to make it seem like getting out Bruce is only Katurah's decision and that everyone is gonna follow her lead.

I know it's good gameplay but the way Drew is going about it is just really slimy.

Yeah but the further they get the less that matters. In the end you want to go to the F3 with people you think you can beat, not with whoever was in. your original tribe.

Fair enough, but I genially do not think those women beating Emily is close to a lock

I actually know why. After days of being on a tribe that didn't like her or trust her, beyond Kaleb, she finally got to a tribe that made her feel included and like she had a voice. Of course, that was only Drew/Austin manipulating Emily into believing they were all in to work WITH her, but it worked on her. Emily seems a bit insecure, and with the change from how she approached the game in the first 4 days vs the rest of the season thus far, she really did put in work to find allies she could trust, and latched onto the first people who made her FEEL important.

Unfortunately, it's all fake so she's going to be blindsided and I wouldn't be surprised if she's hurt when Drew/Austin turn on her.

[Lantern7]

Looks like endurance this week.

ETA: With bird murder!

Death, taxes, and this IC

[iMonrey]

I swear to God if they split them up again . . .

[Pepper the Cat]

That was just mean Jeff

[Lady Calypso]

Wow, Jeff just spilling the rice in a bucket to speed up the decision making.

Drew, Dee, Emily and Katurah all sit out.

[LadyChatts]

So the '4 people need to sit out the challenge to get rice'. 

Dang, Jeff has turned a little savage.

[Lantern7]

Probst, using terrorism to get his way.

Edited November 16, 2023 by Lantern7

[iMonrey]

Once Jeff stabbed the bag they should have refused the offer.

[Straycat80]

Wow! That was new and hard core. 

[LadyChatts]

I feel sorry for Katurah over that.  I don't think she wanted to sit out, and Jeff only slit their bag of rice after she spoke up about them needing that.  I know he was probably going to do that anyway, but it sucked he did it after she said that.

That would involve a modicum of disrespect, and no player has that towards him.

[Lamb18]

I would scrape up that rice from the ground. 

[LadyChatts]

In honor of bringing the auction back, I miss the days when these endurance challenges went on for so long that Jeff brought food items out to tempt people out.

I know. Just once I wish someone would go "Fuck you Jeff." What's he gonna do, fire them?

[Lady Calypso]

So, Kendra and Kellie are both out. 

Julie's still in, which is fantastic to watch.

[LadyChatts]

Kellie and Kendra out.  Bruce, Jake, Austin, and Julie still in.

[willco]

Watch, Bruce will win & screw up their plans !

[LadyChatts]

I'm wondering who the target will be.  Jake?

[Carey]

Bruce struggling but bailed for a second

[Lady Calypso]

Jake out.

Julie vs Bruce! Oh, I love this so much!

[LadyChatts]

Bruce seems like he's having the easiest time with this challenge.

[Pepper the Cat]

Dang!

[Carey]

Man, Julie is going to beat Bruce

[Lady Calypso]

Damnit, now Bruce is gonna have a really big head about his win.

But damn, good on Julie for holding on for that long. She is not someone to play around with!

[LadyChatts]

I really wanted Julie to win this, partly because I wanted Bruce to be vulnerable, but also because that would have been awesome having the oldest person out there win a challenge like that.

Oh well, let the scrambling begin!

[Straycat80]

Julie impressing.  But Bruce wins. Now who will they pick to go? 

[dizzyd]

Why! 😩

[truthaboutluv]

Of course Bruce is going to win because everyone wants him out. 

[Carey]

I've watching this show for almost a quarter century.  If you had to bet, you'd won more than you'd lose

[Lantern7]

Well, shit. Katurah’s a goner. Payback for sacrificing her shot at immunity.

Probst, polishing Bruce’s knob. 🤢
