The old Russell Hanz from Survivor Samoa is back on Survivor 2010 with his strategic game play and he schooled Boston Rob on exactly what he can do. Our first look at the Villain’s tribe in this episode is Rob and Russ as the only ones awake and Russ tries to make Rob think he’s not coming after him. Rob runs his mouth about Russ looking for the idol. What the hell was Russ suppose to do? The villains were idiots for not looking for it themselves so it is 100% their fault Russ found it.
On the Heroes’ tribe Colby knows his time is coming and he pretty much gives up hope. I’m really feeling sorry for him about this time because I do like him and he is one of the great players of all times. Even James gives him props on that.
It is time for the Immunity/Reward Challenge. Jeff lets everyone know they will be playing as individuals and not as a team and the winner from each tribe will face off for a tribal reward. We start the rope challenge with the Heroes and James does very well and probably would have won if it hadn’t been for his knee but Candice comes up the victor. (kudos to skotie68 for figuring that out). The Villains are up next and Rob takes the lead with Tyson and Russell right behind. Tyson won this challenge in his previous season but he is no match for Rob and Rob easily wins. He and Candice face off in the reward showdown and once again Rob wins reward for his team.
The reward is a feast of hotdogs and soda while watching the Heroes at Tribal Council. Did I mention this is a double boot?
Rob comes up with the plan to vote out Parvati but convince Russ they are voting him out. Rob didn’t read Russ too well and even though he had never seen Russ play he is on the Villain side. He should have known Russ wouldn’t back down. Rob is in a big position of power with his immunity necklace so the majority of the camp are following him. Russ figures out what they are doing and considers giving his idol to Parvati. Rob then comes up with the plan to split the votes as 3 to Russ, 3 to Parv and their 3 to Tyson. (Their being Russ, Parv and Danielle). BUT Russ once again figures this out and puts his own plan in motion. He convinces Tyson that he was going to vote out Parvati so Tyson changes his vote. How great is that? You gotta love Russ because if it wasn’t for him last season would have been doomed and we wouldn’t have anyone to cheer for this season.
At Tribal Council Sandra runs her mouth like she always does and tells Russ if you don’t have the idol you best look for it. Can’t stand floaters and that is all Sandra is. In fact you can pretty much call the last year on reality tv the year of the floaters. SUCKS! It is now down to the vote and all is seemingly going as planned until Russ plays the idol for Parvati and the look on Rob’s face when Tyson is eliminated is just what I was waiting for.
Back on the Heroe’s Tribe Colby tells them not to go scrambling behind his back that he knows he is going home and blah blah blah. James is disappointed to see Colby give up like that. The rest of the team is talking about getting rid of James instead and Amanda lets James know they want to see him run and that he needs to quit stealing banana’s lol. James is a big boy and I bet he has to eat a lot of freaking bananas to get full. Who can blame him? Hell he’s hungry. James and JT race and JT easily beats him. At tribal the Villains eat their hot dogs in front of the Heroe’s and watch as Jeff questions the team. The Villains leave before the vote and James is sent packing and says he will be drunk in about 5 minutes lol. I think James was relieved to get his knee seen about.
What are your thoughts on the episode tonight?
