S45.E10: How Am I the Mobster? LIVE CHAT

[Straycat80]

Too late Jake. Jake is gone tonight. 

[LadyChatts]

I kind of like that Drew's name is coming up for a change, especially since he's not happy about it.  And he's not doing a good job at defending himself here with Jake.  He's not as smart at this as he thinks he is.

I think it's a mistake for Emily to tell Drew about Bruce's lie. She had an opportunity here to take out on of the Reba guys but she's sticking with them.

[KaveDweller]

Did Drew want him to sit back and not play?

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, Jake vs Drew. This is interesting. FYI, I'm Team Jake, even if he suddenly became too laser focused on Drew just because he found out Drew wants him out (along with everyone). Yes, Jake, everyone wants you out. Focus on that.

I personally don't think so, because Dee/Julie were gonna tell Drew/Austin anyway, so it makes Emily still look good with them, which will make the potential Reba blindside better.

[Lantern7]

“Done-zo.” Oh, Drew, you hep cat. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Jake with the title quote.

I doubt it will happen but I’d love to see Drew blindsided.

Maybe. I'd like to think Dee and Julie realize they have to ditch Austin and Drew at some point. They can't all four make the final three.

Didn’t they get to take a shower or anything? So not good things always happen at the sanctuary. 

That’s for the “Too Hot For CBS” special.

[dizzyd]

Looks like a new challenge.

I'd like to think that Emily saying Bruce needed to use his idol strategically was maybe foreshadowing to him making some bold move that leads to this.  But everyone seems intent on getting Bruce or Jake out so I doubt it.

. . . and no one gets to lose their vote. Miracle!

[Straycat80]

Oh a new never seen before challenge. 

[LadyChatts]

Emily out first.  Not sure if this is a challenge that favors the guys or the girls.

 

[ponygirl]

I’d like to see Jake win immunity tonight and then see what happens.

[Lady Calypso]

Lots of panic attacks this season, it seems. I don't think we've seen Katurah have to face a water challenge like this, right?

[Lantern7]

Katurah with the breakdown and the sympathy from Probst.

[Straycat80]

How did Katurah do those other water challenges?

No, but they can all make the final 4, where there is no vote.

I’m team Jake over team Drew, even though I think Jake had little shot at making it close to the end.

I wonder if it was sliding down into the water.  Like looking down at it.  I can see where maybe that would be intimidating if you have a fear.

[Lady Calypso]

So, it looks like this challenge is strength-based, which favours the men? 

[Carey]

I guess I like a curveball being a new challenge.  Barring tragedy, I'm okay with it

I think there'd be a split with Bruce, but then who else?  It'd be Emily or Katurah probably, which might be interesting.

[willco]

Bruce will probably win again !

[PaperTree]

Hold on Jake!

[LadyChatts]

Austin seriously looks like he's just working on his tan.  He's not struggling at all.

[Lantern7]

. . . aaaaaaaaaand Jake is going out tonight. Eh, probably not.

[Grizzly]

I guess all the turkey in world isn't going to increase your upper body strength. 

[Lantern7]

Austin with the win AND the impressive dive into the water!

[PaperTree]

Woo Hoo!

[Straycat80]

Jake gone. Oh and Bruce gone too. 

[LadyChatts]

I'd say I wanted Bruce to win and maybe use his idol on Jake (the next biggest target), but there'd be no point since Katurah doesn't want to work with Bruce and I don't know that Emily does either.  So they couldn't do anything great.

Edited November 30, 2023 by LadyChatts

[Carey]

I actually meant to say Bruce's comp was Terry (not Ben Wade).  Though that's probably no longer the case

[Lady Calypso]

Oh, so Katurah wants Julie to be the Reba vote.

[LadyChatts]

Wait does Julie have a hidden immunity idol or was that a mistake by the editors?

[Lady Calypso]

Oh....oh yeah, Austin gave Julie his second idol! I forgot about that!

[LadyChatts]

Now Katurah is throwing Julie's name out.  She isn't wrong with her reasoning, but of all the Reba members I want her to go least.  Dee's a bigger threat that is clearly being underestimated, Austin is safe, and I guess Drew is either not considered a threat or has the allegiance of Emily and Katurah.

You know, if the Reba 4 end up picking off Katurah, Emily, and Jake they deserve it.  This is their last chance to do something big.  

[Lady Calypso]

Jake, you've already written Julie's name down once. What makes you think SHE'S forgotten that? 

[Straycat80]

Julie? Well, if she makes F3 she would maybe win. 

[Lantern7]

This is the season of the massive fuck-off breakdown.

[LadyChatts]

I don't know 100% that she would.  It would really depend on who she's up against, and if people are voting for game play I'm not sure she'd have the moves to back it up.

[Lady Calypso]

Oh....this is a surprisingly great moment for Bruce? He showed his dad side by comforting Jake, pretty much like a Dad lol

But Jake's 100% right in being wary on who to trust. Everyone DOES want him for a vote. Hell, even Emily does, to an extent.

[LadyChatts]

Has there been this much crying in a Survivor season like this season?  At least recently?

Gotta agree.  If Wiger was treated like she wasn't even in the finals last year, I'm not easily betting on Julie FTW

I was just thinking that. So much crying and breakdowns. It’s getting exhausting to watch.

[LadyChatts]

So I'm worried about Emily playing both sides, but now I'm worried she might be overplaying her hand with Bruce.  He doesn't seem like the type to appreciate the gameplay if she tried explaining her reasoning in a final 3 scenario.

Don't put them in a combined season with the folks from Season 8!

Speaking of comps (i.e. Katurah's comp is Ashley Underwood), I'd say Emily's would be Sandra.  While that gets my ass kicked, I think Emily is at the point where it's "anyone but her" so I don't mind her going to the next level.  Given her struggles early, I can't blame her.

Jake's comp is Penner, but If Jon was on this season, he'd have been the sole survivor before the show even began

[Lady Calypso]

Drew really wants to show how smart he is with analogies and metaphors, huh?

[LadyChatts]

I'm glad we have a jury that seems slightly bitter this season.

Yes, very bitter, both Kellie and Kendra have looks that kill. I feel like this group will voted with emotions and not by game play. JMO.
