S32.E09: It's Psychological Warfare

[Tara Ariano]

A separation in tribes leads to the ultimate sabotage; and a schoolyard pick draws a line in the sand at a tough reward challenge.

[Straycat80]

I hate Jason and Scot so much right now!

[wallflower75]

I hate Jason and Scot so much right now!

 

Douchebags, the both of them.

 

And honestly--do they think that if they weaken the girls, it's going to break down their resolve and they'll agree to keep the guys in the game?

 

Dear God, I never thought I'd agree with something Debbie said--they're poor losers.

[riverheightsnancy]

Tai, do NOT align with these assholes! What a jerk Bounty and Lurch are. It will drive the girls MORE together. 

[pinkelephant3]

I get this is a game but how does production allow this to happen?

[Lamima]

Damn...thought I couldn't hate anyone more than Jason...now Scot is top of my shit list!

[wallflower75]

Well, they've never stopped people from sabotaging camp and other things before...see Hantz, Russell and Hantz, Brandon for prime examples of this.

[SledDog]

Scott and Jason remind us yet again that they're a pair of ignorant bullies. You know, the way they were at the Brawn camp. I loathe bullies. Hopefully "America" does as well.

[Lamima]

And Julia had better not re-allign with those asshats!

[ihartcoffee]

I hate those two so much, douchebag assholes!

[mojoween]

I bet when the Celtics were losing at halftime Scot took all of the basketballs and hid them around the arena before the second half started.

[Haleth]

Dammit! Why didn't Julia just sit down and refuse to move? Ugh, I hate those repulsive guys.

[ratherbereading]

I hope Scott and Jason get food poisoning.

[ihartcoffee]

Noooooooo Julia, don't you see what assholes they are?

I don't think I've hated contestants this much ever. It's unpleasant to watch.

[wallflower75]

So the million-dollar (literally) question becomes: if Debbie, Aubry, Joe, and Cydney vote out Julia, do the douchebags and Tai combine their idols to save her?  It knocks out both idols, and no guarantee that there will be any more to be found, for someone who isn't exactly trustworthy.

[Straycat80]

Wow Debbie has a huge.....zit, bite, something, on the back of her right shoulder!

Sydney is making a lot of sense. C'mon Debbie, Julia of course is going to flip.

No way those Neanderthals will burn the super idol to save a girl.

[wallflower75]

Tai!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[riverheightsnancy]

Disappointed with Tai. 

[LadyChatts]

Well, there goes the absolute last person I was rooting for this season.  Why Tai?  You are so much better than the terrible twosome.

 

Also, do Scot and Jason forget that these very people might be the ones deciding if they take home the million or not?  We probably won't be rid of them because they are the perfect goats.  Same with Julia.  Really no idea who to root for at this point.  Think I'll go with Debbie.

 

My guess: voting for Julia is a red herring.  Scot or Jason get voted for, the super idol is used, those two douchebags sit their with their shit eating grins because they thought they were going to be the absolute bomb in the eyes of the fans and believe they just made the absolute best move in Survivor history (sorry but play against the real kings and queens of Survivor idol play and then we'll talk).  Julia looks at them with hero worship, and Tai doesn't realize he's been used.

I'd say so except she's being an idiot about the Julia thing.  Tai pretty much telegraphed that there's a "super idol" out there, and you if you think about it, you realize that he only knows BECAUSE HE HAS ONE.  And he's the kind of guy who would give it up to save a buddy.

 

Ugh.  Tai.  Seriously.

 

Well, I guess that blows up Aubry's plan to get rid of Julia.

[PaperTree]

Damn.  Julia needed to go tonite.

[LadyChatts]

I almost hope Probst calls Tai out during tribal about he's supposed to be a lover of all things, so how can he stoop to Jason and Scot's level if it hurts other people.  Yeah, he's disappointed me that bad this hour that I want Jeff to call him on it and ruin his image.

[cooksdelight]

This domino challenge is fricken mind-blowing. One of the best ones they've had for immunity.

[LizBug]

Everyone seems to be ignoring Joe at the moment.  Guess not being on anyone's radar is good thing ... he shouldn't be getting any votes.

[LadyChatts]

Disappointed Julia won immunity.  I kind of wanted her to get blindsided tonight, as I didn't think the guys would save her.  Making moves for the sake of making them?  Well, I guess that's better than people who get into an alliance with goats and go to the end with them because they think they will win.  Then don't understand why people are saying they did nothing.  Oh wait...

 

My guess is Aubry or Debbie go tonight.

Maybe there is someone else to root for in this game now that Tai's decided to turn to the Dark Side...go Joe!!

 

And now that I've said that, watch the guys decide to vote him out because no one will see it coming.

[Archery]

Aubrey is like the Wile E. Coyote of Survivor.  She makes these great elaborate plans, and they always fall apart.  

[riverheightsnancy]

I hope that they are lying to Julia about Debbie. 

[LadyChatts]

Actually, if Debbie does get voted off tonight, Ponderosa is going to be hilarious with her, Neal, and Nick.  At least there's one bright spot to this crappy season!

 

Also, I kind of hope the super idol is played tonight, just to get it out of the way.  Hope it comes back to bite Jason, Tai, Scot, and Julia next week.

Edited April 14, 2016 by LadyChatts

[Lamima]

Joe needs to go...he's so frikin dumb.

[wallflower75]

Julia, Julia, Julia...see Cagayan Sarah to see what the arrogance of assuming you have power because you're the swing vote gets you.

[LadyChatts]

I think one of the qualifications of selecting female contestants is if they are completely willing to give a female alliance a shot, rather than tease the viewers for one episode that it'll be a thing, then run back to the boys the next episode.

Julia, Julia, Julia...see Cagayan Sarah to see what the arrogance of assuming you have power because you're the swing vote gets you.

 

If that immunity necklace wasn't on her neck, that would be a sure-fire quote that she was getting voted off.  I had such high hopes for her, but she's been a disappointment.

Can we just have the finale next week and be done with it?  I mean, they already pushed this season back a year, why not just end it early.

[wallflower75]

Oh...please say that they're going to use the idols on each other for nothing.  PLEASE say that they're going to give them up for no point.  Please please please...

 

Dang it.  My mother just pointed out that Cydney's about to get knocked out because they're going back to their original strategy...which Julia is not supporting.

That would be so satisfying.

[ratherbereading]

I have no clue who is about to get voted off. Crazy

[riverheightsnancy]

Did they forget about the super idol?

[wallflower75]

Dang it!  And now they still have those idols!!!!!!

 

Which means the douchebags now have the numbers.  Whoever the other four vote for next week, they'll play the super idol and it'll be 4-3.  Dang it, dang it, dang it!! :(

Edited April 14, 2016 by wallflower75

[Haleth]

That was insane.

I hope Tai refuses to give either idol up.

Edited April 14, 2016 by Haleth

[LadyChatts]

Damn.  I wonder if Jeff is sorry about the two people who have the idols or not.  I really wish they needed all 3 pieces to make it work.

 

So I guess I'm rooting for Joe by default.  Can not stand the bullies, nor their associates (and I believe Aubry and Michele are friends with them outside the show now, so not rooting for them because of association).  Hope Julia and Tai get blindsided by those two to show how stupid they were to align with them.

Yeah!  bye debby!

Yeah!  bye debby!

[riverheightsnancy]

Why the holy fuck did they not split the votes between the men?????  What does voting Debbie out do for them? What a bunch of stupid shits. Audry, I am looking at YOU!  The men told them that they had only 2 idols. 

[cooksdelight]

Crazy brilliant! Best tribal I have seen in .... forever!!

[thehepburn]

Yes! I've been saying all season that Tai is a creep! Ha! Vindication is SWEET!

[Callaphera]

Ugh. Julia, you missed a great opportunity tonight. You could have pulled a Beast Mode Cowboy during that reward challenge and just sat down on the ground and refused to help. "Oh, you want to sabotage the camp? I'll sabotage you right back." Hell, you could have even taken a step, did an awkward fall to the ground and claimed you hurt your ankle and couldn't move. Okay, so it didn't work out for BMC when he did it on Big Brother but it would have been epic. For that missed opportunity alone, you're on my shit list. I hope you get voted out soon. 

[Dust Bunny]

So they can keep threatening with that damn Super Idol, right? 

 

A twist is only entertaining when it is not wielded by arseholes.

 

Oh Tai. You have been seduced by the stupid side. 

[dkb]

I really don't get the logic of ruining camp life and making people starve. How does that make them want to work with you? It would cement their alliance the other way. If only they didn't have idols.

 

Blindsiding someone is NOT the same as taking away things you need to live. 

 

God, I dislike Scot and Jason so much, and Tai is going downhill way fast.

Edited April 14, 2016 by dkb

[LadyChatts]

This season is definitely one of the worst, imo.  Kind of like WA, the best people were voted off pre-merge.

 

And...I think I dislike this cast as a whole more than I dislike Dan Foley as one.

[truthaboutluv]

Great, so we get the stupid super idol gimmick in a season with a bunch of fucking raging assholes and bullies. I'm sorry I'm out. Bad enough the season was already boring but I'll be damned if I watch more of those fucking bullies smirking on my television. And I have never gotten the Tai love and tonight solidified him as useless to me as well. Fuck all these people.

 

Cydney is still all kinds of awesome and I like Aubry but I just feel like the assholes will prevail because it will just be the cherry on this complete piece of shit season. In case I wasn't as clear in my comment - fuck you Jason and fuck you Scott, you piece of shit assholes. I don't think I've ever disliked ANY contestant on this show in all my seasons of watching as much as I do those two. And I refuse to watch one more second of them. Call me when the fall season starts.

I almost feel like saying I'm calling it a day on this season.  It's been boring, and now the jerks are in charge because I somehow doubt they're going to sway Tai away from them.  Although...he did engineer Anna's ouster to save his own skin, and no one knows he put out the second fire...hmm.....
