WOOHOO!!! SURVIVOR NIGHT... after a disappointing RECAP show LAST WEEK... this week was WORTH the wait... for those SURVIVOR FANS that missed tonights episode... here is a RECAP...
The show opens as Jeff informs the remaining tribe members that they will not be leaving to go back to camp but will instead participate in a REWARD CHALLENGE before going back to camp... The REWARD is a trip to an ancient Chinese Temple for an overnight stay... winning is based on questions about the Chinese culture... PG ends up winning the REWARD based on the RED ENVELOPE question and can pick two fellow tribe members to accompany her on the REWARD... she chooses ERIK and DENISE... Everyone returns to camp as the REWARD will start early the next morning...
James wishes "EVE" wouldn't have been tempted to eat the apple (referring to the alliance sticking together and not changing the plan)... Amanda starts to ponder a change in the game...
REWARD CHALLENGE TRIP... PG, Denise and Erik leave for the REWARD... PG wastes no time chatting up possible strategy with the other two... they enjoy pistachios and champagne while listening to PG's proposal... The arrive at the TEMPLE and DENISE (the mullet sporting lunch lady) reveals she is a atudent of KARATE (who would've guessed THAT???) AND that she is preparing to go for her BLACK BELT in KARATE AND has opened her own KARATE SCHOOL!!! THe monks at the TEMPLE give a KUNG FU display to the rewardees and Denise is put on the spot and performs a 1 woman KARATE show for some Chinese kids...
Day 29... RAIN RAIN and MORE RAIN... and it is driving TODD crazy... PG, ERIK, and DENISE return from the REWARD and AMANDA is the only one to greet them... PG immediately starts giving a detailed rundown of the reward and pisses COURTNEY off... DENISE tells TODD of the strategy chat on the reward trip... ERIK tries to get JAMES to flip (to join PG, and himself)... JAMES pretty much says NO WAY
Day 30... COURTNEY and AMANDA find tree mail (Ninja Stars)... Amanda tells Courtney of her (Amanda's) idea to backdoor James
IMMUNITY CHALLENGE... Ninja Star throwing at silohettes for points... 4 way tie after round 1 between AMANDA, JAMES, COURTNEY and ERIK... final round... 1 throw... ERIK (a Southpaw) wins IMMUNITY... Plan is put into motion to blindside James
Back at camp after the Immunity Challenge PG and Erik are talking and PG finds one of the HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOLS hidden in the roof of the shelter... she then "confronts" AMANDA about knowledge of the HII (Amanda says she is AWARE of the HIIs exsistence)... PG asks Amanda to flip on James... Amanda tells PG to keep quiet and not say anything and that it would be in her best interest to just act like she (PG) is leaving... James becomes a bit suspicious but doesn't feel really threatened...
TRIBAL COUNCIL... Jeff questions the tribe about the level of TRUST they have in each other... DENISE is honest and says she trusts noone... JAMES says as long as people are working towards a common goal then they should/could be trusted... IT IS TIME TO VOTE... Jeff tallies the votes and asks if anyone wants to play the hidden immunity idol... JAMES DOESN'T PLAY A HIDDEN IMMUNITY IDOL... the votes are read... as everyone's smiles emerge... JAMES is voted out... the TRIBE has SPOKEN... and everyone is openly SMILING at his departure (including the JURY!!!)
Noticed the opening shots/credits changed again... they now show the JURY members... My son LOVED this episode... he's into all that NINJA/KUNG FU stuff... so he thought it was totally cool...
Can't wait til next week!!!
