S45.E09: Sword of Damocles LIVE CHAT

[Lady Calypso]

Bruce, Kendra and Julie win the second part, so looks like we have a potential Bruce win again.

[LadyChatts]

Blue team (Bruce/Kendra/Julie) move onto the individual immunity round and win reward.

[Lantern7]

Do not tell me Bruce wins immunity again . . .🤦‍♂️

[LadyChatts]

I don't want Bruce to win because I'd rather see him go, but he of course has an idol and may be very tempted to play it.  Not sure if Kendra will be in any true danger or if her name getting thrown out early like Dee's is a red herring.

[Lady Calypso]

Julie looks strong for now. Kendra and Bruce are wobbling.

[iMonrey]

Jeff's running commentary is just SO annoying.

[Lady Calypso]

Jeff's new favourite catch phrase is "THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT ON SURVIVOR!"

Yes, Jeff, let's watch Kendra dislocate her shoulders for this win. Because THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT ON SURVIVOR!

[LadyChatts]

I wanted Kendra to win just because of how smug Dee was looking on the sidelines.  Dee realizes people can throw her name out, right?

[Straycat80]

Julie is impressing me. 

[dizzyd]

Fml!

[Lantern7]

Boooooooooooooo.

[Lady Calypso]

Not Bruce again! He's basically guaranteed F7, at this stage.

[LadyChatts]

Dang, Bruce won again.  And I just realized it came down to him and Julie again.  I don't care much for Julie, but I'll give her a ton of credit for doing well in these challenges.

[Straycat80]

Bruce gets Immunity again. 

[PaperTree]

I had a bad feeling this would happen.

Julie's a badass at these challenges. I will say, it's great to see older women like Julie kick ass on this show.

[Lantern7]

If this show does indeed have gods, they clearly do not listen to us.

[PaperTree]

I've always liked Katura.

[LadyChatts]

I did until she said she's fine playing for fifth because she'd rather see her old tribe get taken out first.  I hate players like that. 

[MerBearHou]

I am apparently at a table for one, but I really really like Bruce.  I think he’s very good-hearted and yes, he’s old school and wears his emotions on his sleeve (I am kind of the same and it’s hard for me to fake it when I’m hurt inside), but he is someone I’d like to know.  Him finding out that Kellie wasn’t that fond of him really injured him, I believe, and I also believe he’ll go home and ask his wife and daughter if he’s overbearing.  Part of it is his strong voice and big personality.  

And if I never knew Katurah, I’d be absolutely fine with that.  Her personality annoys the hell out of me.  

[Quilt Fairy]

Drew you are still in that awkward phase.

[LadyChatts]

So Jake is also ditching his old Belo alliance for Reba, because they voted for him at the last TC.  Unlike Katurah, I think Jake will leave his options open.  

I wanted to like Dee, but her and the Reba's are too smug.

[iMonrey]

That rice looks nasty as hell.

[Lantern7]

Now that’s a roasted chicken. Even Kendra wants in on it.

[Straycat80]

I’m not liking Dee right now. Or Drew. 

[iMonrey]

Eww, no utensils, just ripping the chicken apart with their nasty dirty hands.

[LadyChatts]

I'm hoping something happens tonight and a Reba goes home.  I'd like to see their foursome get knocked down a little.  Emily may have waited a little too long to try and take a shot, though, since it seems like Katurah is with the Rebas and against Belo, and Jake is willing to work with Reba over Belo.

[dizzyd]

That’s it  just chicken?

That was bad BS by Dee and Drew.

I guess these people can’t be trusted with a knife.

[LadyChatts]

Okay so I like that Julie is putting a name out there and wanting Jake over Dee's plan to target Kendra.  I was just thinking she seems to be willing to go along with Dee and the Reba guys, so I'm glad she's throwing a name out and playing.  She'll probably get overruled by the Queen but at least she's trying.

[Carey]

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!  I'm I at the time where Dee can go anytime, or did I miss Kellie's GLARE that kills all the remaining survivors except including Mr. Bruce?!

[LadyChatts]

Julie at least admits that voting for Jake seems too easy and it's never that easy.  

I think a lot of how the votes goes will hinge on what happens at the journey.

Well speaking of the journey, here we are.

[Straycat80]

I’ll laugh if there’s a sandwich at the end of Austin’s path. 

[MerBearHou]

Dee has some Parvati-manipulation skills in her.  She gets the nerdy ones devoted to her.  At least I’m getting a little whiff of that…

[LadyChatts]

So all they have to do is complete a puzzle before a timer runs out.  I was hoping for something more.  But as someone whose mathematically challenged, I'd never get this under pressure.

[Straycat80]

WTH is a wheelhouse? Oh, a math puzzle. I’d immediately flunk. 

[Pepper the Cat]

I couldn’t do this in 3 hours. And I like math!
 

[LadyChatts]

Katurah's timer runs out.  She doesn't get her vote back. 

[dizzyd]

I got it too

[LadyChatts]

Austin gets the right answer so his vote is restored.  Because of course he's that lucky.

[Straycat80]

Austin gets a vote but not the girls. 

[MerBearHou]

Nice job, Austin.

[LadyChatts]

So just Emily and Katurah will not have a vote.  Which means the Reba 4 can control the vote tonight.  I guess so long Kendra.!

[Lantern7]

Austin gets his vote back. I’m thinking Survivor Gods would want Katurah gone for not liking Bruce.

[Carey]

That means Jeff has to struggle during tribal not to smile with a laugh /j

[MerBearHou]

I’d be like Emily — brain turn to mush looking at those numbers.  

[Lady Calypso]

I get that Austin powered through that, but another week where the Reba 4 are in control and have no adversity toward them kind of annoys me.

[Lantern7]

Has anyone said the title quote yet?

Dang, Drew is pasty.

Yeah, the fact that Emily emphasized that 4 people control the vote gives Bruce, Jake, and Kendra no chance to make any move.  Tonight might have been the only shot Emily had to try and take a Reba out.
