Tonight on Survivor we’re recapping “Our Time To Shine,” the third episode of Season 28 where the fourth castaway from Cagayan will be sent out in to the dark, rainy night sans torch and fire.
I’m pretty excited to see what happens with two challenges in one night when neither happens to be a Redemption Island battle. Phew! Glad to see those gone so we can get back to the fun of a Reward Challenge. We’ve caught the previews of both the Reward & the Immunity challenges but now we get the official results on both.
Will Aparri throw the challenge and send themselves to Tribal Council to sabotage their tribe’s success? Let’s hope they’re not really that dumb, but it’s time to find out!

At the Solana camp Morgan is pretty upset about having just seen Brice sent home so she starts mouthing off that Jeremiah was out to get LJ. Not everyone believes it, but she’s sowing the seeds of doubt.
Reward Challenge:
Tribes are playing for four chickens while second place gets a dozen eggs at tonight’s Reward Challenge. The castaways will be blindfolded and listen to the commands of one player in a tower giving them directions to gather items across the playing field.
Beauty is leading the challenge with three items while LJ can’t stop running this crotch in to the railings around the field. Luzon isn’t far behind while Brawn is slogging through in last.
Beauty and Brains are nearly tied when Brains let their wicker basket roll off the side of the lift platform. Brawn barely has a chance here.
Beauty has their flag on the way up… yep, Beauty wins reward with four chickens.
It’s so close now with Brains completely screwing up the final challenge to lift a flag on the platform. Brawn is now right behind them and… ahahah! Yep, Brains couldn’t lay a flag on the flat lift. Guess who couldn’t figure out that last step… J’Tia.
Over at the Beauty tribe there’s a big discussion over how chicken eggs happen. It’s just too stupid to type.
Let’s go for strategy and drama. At the Aparri tribe Sarah decides she needs to get rid of Cliff because Tony has her convinced that Cliff & Lindsey are coming after her. It was a lie, but she believes it and draws Woo in to help eliminate Cliff. They’re considering throwing the next comp to make it happen.
Immunity Challenge:
Okay, this is total BS. Survivor is offering up a basketball competition for Immunity. How slanted is that for Cliff, an NBA star? I like Cliff and all, but that’s crap for the other tribes.
Tribes have to release buoys from deep underwater then make five baskets. Aparri is going to try and throw the comp, if they can.
The tribes line up and are in the water. The first buoy is just three feet underwater and guess who can’t manage that on Luzon? J’Tia is sinking that tribe and they just keep her around anyway. Go figure.
Not to be outdone, Kass also fails at retrieving a buoy while Beauty is destroying it as they gather their buoys quickly and are about to get their last one.
Jeremiah is shooting baskets while the other tribes continue to try and collect their buoys. Aparri is doing a solid job of not doing a solid job. Just like they planned.
Over on Luzon, Spencer is doing all the hard work of collecting the buoys. Now he’s doing all the shooting. He’s facing off against Cliff. Hilarious!
Luzon is struggling to get the buoys back to Spencer. Good grief, ladies. Cliff is doing great and is about to lock down Immunity or is he? Yep! Spencer was doing awesome, but his teammates are awful and Cliff is a former NBA star. What did you think would happen?
So Luzon is off to Tribal Council. Will they finally, finally eliminate J’Tia tonight? Really all of them are doing so poorly that all deserve to go, but only one of them will be voted off Survivor tonight.
Preparing for the next vote Kass and Tasha agree that J’Tia needs to go. Soon after that Tasha goes back on the plan. This is really up in the air as the decisions are still being made in front of the possible targets at Council.
It’s time to vote! This is going to be fun. Jeff reveals the results: J’Tia, Spencer, J’Tia, J’Tia.
That’s it. J’Tia is gone and she knew she deserved to have it happen so she’s a good sport about being eliminated.
What do you think of Luzon’s decision? Was it the right move to get rid of J’Tia over Spencer?
Next week on Survivor the Tribe merge/shuff is here! The three tribes become two in the next episode.
