[KeithJ]

Such bullshit.  You’ve all made the merge so let’s break into teams and give team immunity.

Seriously ? You've never had potato salad ? :)

I've never had it, but I've seen it and that bowl looks just like mashed potatoes with some green onions on top

[Rodney]

Smart of Tiyana to want to eat their own now, but Caroline will likely not flip on Gabe without Caroline.  Sue won't trust her if she does.

We have mustard potato salad here in the Midwest. It's really tasty, especially with summer type food.

[Maggie Mae]

Sue will get wind of the Gabe plan. There are 45 minutes left!

[Pepper the Cat]

Food coma time

Yes and with sliced hard boiled eggs and crispy bacon in it. 

[MerBearHou]

There’s so much time left in this episode.  Is this all we’re going to be doing — watching strategizing?  

[Pepper the Cat]

The camera people are more observant than the players

[LadyChatts]

Kudos to Andy for at least looking.  I hope he lasts long enough to take Sierra and Sam out.  I really want at least one of them gone thanks to him. 

[dizzyd]

Yay sol!

[LadyChatts]

Andy arouses suspicion but Sol could probably send a marching band out and they wouldn't blink.  But yay to Sol for finding it!  

[Straycat80]

That little scroll was sticking out like a sore thumb and no one saw it. 
I’m glad Sol found it. 

[truthaboutluv]

Smooooth, Sol!

[LadyChatts]

So now Tiyanna tells Caroline she's thrown out voting off Gabe.  

I don't see the logic in Caroline's plan.  She's betting on Kyle losing sometime soon.  Yeah, they could get Gabe but what if Kyle's on a streak?  That would leave the former Tuku women.

[MerBearHou]

Tiyanna’s obsession with Gabe…my gosh.

I’ve never seen the huge love for potato salad.

You've never seen my in-laws. But I like it a lot, too.

[truthaboutluv]

Wait, Gabe threw Caroline's name as the distraction? That's surprising since he's wanted Tiyana out for so long.

That might be the thing that screws him because Caroline was the holdout to stick wtih the Tuku 5. 

[LadyChatts]

I'm still not buying Rachel's going.  It's too obvious.  I'd never believe Gabe would go to rocks in a case like this.  

[Pepper the Cat]

Ok. I like this advantage. This could change everything.

[jsm1125]

Caroline: “Rachel is the glue for her original tribe.” Huh? Since when?

[LadyChatts]

Seriously this group is Camp Survivor.  They are on vacation. 

Ooh, Sol's advantage is pretty good.  I'm glad he got this.

[truthaboutluv]

I had a feeling this was going to be something that affected the tribal council. 

[gorgy]

this could add intrigue

[Straycat80]

Who will Sol give it too? I hope Gabe? 

[WatcherUp2]

This episode could have been a half hour.

[LadyChatts]

I wonder if Sol will give it to Rachel (obvious vote) or a former Tuku (create some chaos).

Dang, they are heading to TC already.  Something big is going down.

Same. I’d rather eat just about any other form of potatoes.

i hope Sol gives the advantage to Rachel. Force Tuku to vote out one of their own.

[susannot]

Ummm, admittedly I have skipped the last two episodes because I was bored out of my mind, but why would the Tuku 5 be afraid of going back to camp Tuku 5 strong?  What am I missing?  They would prefer to go back with 4?  are they nuts, or am I?

 

Never mind.  I decided to keep watching once the merge happened because I have said I want a female attorney to win (as a retired female attorney) and lo and behold Genvieve is still there.  I can't stop watching on the season where one of my girls might actually win!

[LadyChatts]

I think Sol gives it to Rachel or Gabe.  They are the two names that have been thrown out the most.  If it goes to Rachel she might pick safety without power, so that could throw Tuku into a live TC.

It's to stop Rachel from playing her Shot in the Dark.  He doesn't actually want her out.

[LadyChatts]

Half an hour left in the episode and TC is starting.

[MerBearHou]

I’m just so glad I don’t have to hear Andy talk at Tribal.

I know it was fake, but I assumed he'd use Tiyana as the decoy name. 

[LadyChatts]

I was surprised too.  Unless he didn't want it to get back to Tiyana for some reason, despite her throwing his name out.

[Quilt Fairy]

A good potato salad (and there are many variations) is magical.  But I think some of the Fiji interpretations of American comfort foods we see on this show are probably suspect. 

[Straycat80]

I don’t think Rachel is getting voted off, too obvious. 

[Pepper the Cat]

How is Sol going to give the advantage to someone. Is he going to do it when Jeff a asks if someone wants to play their advantag 

[MerBearHou]

The Sol Factor is looming — cool!

[LadyChatts]

Just now, Straycat80 said:

I'm sticking with Gabe or Tiyana.  They seem to be the two that want the other out the most.  It's been brewing and I feel like tonight one of them is coming out on top.

With how much airtime Tiyana is getting I'm curious if it'll be her.  Especially with the talk about wanting to make the jury and just elements of gameplay.  

[Quilt Fairy]

Sol's double take when he saw that scroll was picture perfect.  I'm glad the cameraman caught that.

[truthaboutluv]

Sol sent it to Rachel after all. 

[LadyChatts]

Oh yay Sol!  He gave it to Rachel.  And is going a good job looking surprised.  

I felt it was foreshadowing she was getting it when Gabe said she might be the one deciding whose going home.

She picked safety without power.  Smart pick.

[Michichick]

Awesome!

[Straycat80]

How did Sol get the scroll to Rachel? A big move here. That was cool. Now who will go home. I hope not Gabe. 

[WatcherUp2]

Sol should become an actor! 

[dizzyd]

Smart move, why wait till after to pick off Tuku? Start now.

[LadyChatts]

I love Sol acting surprised.  

So will the alliance of Gabe/Caroline/Sue stay strong and just vote off Tiyana?  Or will someone flip?

[gorgy]

bye gabe

I'm guessing he gave it to a producer/cameraman, told them he wanted to give it to Rachel, and they gave it to her.
