This week Survivor 2013 Caramoan made history as a tribe member was voted off the island on the spot before the immunity challenge was even played.
The Brandon Hantz show starts off right away when he’s talking about feeling guilty about leaving his family to play Survivor and he says he’ll volunteer to go out during the next Tribal Council.
He also admits to the tribe that he was ready to pee on the rice and burn the camp down. He apologizes, but that doesn’t stop the others from thinking he’s crazy.
And the next day, he calls a meeting and he’s already changed his mind. That’s usually how a mentally unstable person works though. They go up and down and back and forth. I really don’t understand why he was allowed on the show. But whatever.
It’s reward challenge time. It’s a game of coconut basketball, only two tribe members from each team have to hold up the nets as they fill with coconuts. They have to try to not let their nets drop. If they drop, they lose.
The person left standing wins the reward for their tribe. They’re playing for sausage, steaks, veggies and wine.
Holding the nets are Phillip, Brandon, Matt and Michael. People are targeting Brandon first, so he is the fist to drop. Matt is the second to drop. So there’s one fan and one favorite left.
In the end, Michael drops so Favorites win as Phillip is the only left holding the net. The fans tribe are bummed once again and their morale sinks even lower. Except for Reynold. He AGAIN finds the hidden immunity idol. Hilarious.
And even though the fans are down and out, they’re not the root of this week’s drama, surprisingly enough. OK, it’s not surprising at all. We know that the drama is coming from the Favorites. Even though they’re enjoying a delicious barbecue. That’s because Brandon and Phillip are on a team together.
Brandon is annoyed because Phillip is taking credit for winning the challenge. And Brandon’s ego is damaged for dropping out. And Phillip is being kind of a ridiculous, so it gets Brandon going. They try to talk it out and Brandon apologizes and Phillip spouts some mumbo jumbo and all is good. Or is it…
No.
In fact, Phillip is considering throwing the challenge just to get everyone to vote Brandon out. And Brandon realizes what’s up. So he calls Phil out to have another discussion. And then Brandon snaps. And he pours the rice and beans out. So no one on the camp can eat. Lovely, you crazy person.
And then he screams “I’m the author of my fate.” Yeah. Insane.
Who knows what happened immediately next, but what we get is everyone showing up at the Immunity Challenge. But before they can play, Brandon wants to talk to the other tribe. Brandon spouts off something to the other tribe, but he is interrupted by Corrine who says they want to go to Tribal now and not play the game. They want to go now and take care of things…
Jeff calls Brandon over to explain what’s going on. What he does is have a meltdown. This goes on way too long and I’m as uncomfortable as Dawn and Adnrea. Jeff is concerned. So he says OK, let’s go to Tribal.
The Fans get immunity and the Favorites have instant Tribal Council. Brandon is unanimously voted out right then and there. He’s the sixth person voted off Survivor Caramoan. And his final words: “Phillip, you’re a bitch.”
