So we finally get to an episode that Casaya will lose a member. We don't know if it's going to be a forced out because Terry will use his Immunity Idol, or if he'll win the Immunity Challenge and they'll be forced to choose someone to vote off. I'm hoping it's the latter.
The day after Tribal Council and Terry's complaining about having the huge target on his back now that Sallie's gone. Then he starts talking about the way the voting will work from here on out. He's got to win 3 out of the next 4 Immunity Challenges. Apparently the Immunity Idol can be used through the final four. So if he wins the challenges and makes it to the final four, he can lose that challenge and use his Idol to not be voted out. I love Terry.
I debated whether or not to post this picutre because I was afraid you wouldn't continue to read on
Bruce is wandering around camp, complaining about his stomach hurting. He tries to nicely tell us that he can't use the facilities, and Shane, ever the one for manners and etiquette, asks if Bruce can't poop. Yes, that's what's going on, Bruce can't poop, and the poor guy can barely walk. He hasn't been able to take a poop since they went to that bbq thing with the native Panamanians. If my calculations are correct, that was about ten days ago. Obviously he's a little stuffed up. See, if Josh Bernstein was there, he'd be able to tell him what plant to eat to flush out his system.
Later, they get Tyra mail, I'm sorry, tree mail, and find boxes addressed to each of them. Inside is an evil looking voodoo doll thing that each person has to make look like themselves. Each person starts working on them and the best is Cirie who puts two coconuts in her dress to represent her lady parts. They bring the dolls to the Reward Challenge and learn it's one of those fun 'what do you really think of me' challenges. They're playing for time at a spa, with massages, food, and a bed. Who wouldn't want that?
Jeff has the group go and fill out a survey privately. Once they're done, Jeff has them line up. In front of them are the dolls they made, strung up. He's going to ask them questions and if you get it right, you get to chop off someone's rope. After all three of your ropes are chopped off, it'll set your doll on fire and you're out of the game. I wonder who's gonna get out first. All of the questions were about their tribe mates. Each question they have to answer honestly, who would get the most votes. For the challenge, they have to say who they think most people would say. As an example, "Who thinks they're running the game". If most people wrote down Shane, whoever reveals his name when Jeff asks, gets to knock off someone's rope.
As the game begins, it's clear the purpose of it is to hurt someone's feelings and cause drama. Since it's nearly a month there, people are in their routine, have their little cliques, and this game makes people rethink things. Especially Courntey, who's the answer to most question, i.e., "Who's the most annoying", those sort of questions. As soon as they can, Terry gets knocked off and is none too happy about it. What did he think, honestly. To make a long story short, everyone gets pissed at everyone else and it comes down to Aras and Cirie. If she gets this right, she'll win because he only has one more rope. The question is "Who wouldn't survive out here on their own". Cirie picks herself and Aras picks, Terry? What the hell is that about? It soon becomes clear, mostly because they talk about it, that Aras and Cirie made a pack that if she wins she'll be taking him with her to reward. Luckily this is one of the ones you get to take people with you, two to be exact. As soon as the other tribe mates figure out that she can take someone with her besides Aras, Shane freaks out, nearly getting on his knees and begging. Unfortunately, it seems she had some sort of deal worked out with Danielle to take her with her. Shane is pissed, kicking the dirt and what not. Cirie tries to apologize, but it doesn't work.
While in the helicopter going to their reward, and afterwards, Cirie, Aras and Danielle talk a bit about the challenge and how bad they feel for Courtney. They don't feel so bad that it ruins their mad massages and food they're stuffing in their face.
Back at camp, Courtney and Shane are bummed about two different things. Shane's pissed Cirie took Danielle. He tells Courtney he didn't realize they were so close, which they really aren't, but he thinks that. And of course Courtney's upset because she didn't realize she was so annoying. Now she knows. She says that yesterday she was enjoying the game, but now she isn't. When Bruce comes out of the woods and announces he couldn't "pass a deuce", Shane translates for us that Bruce couldn't poop. Thanks Shane. Bruce is in a lot of pain and lays in the shelter, concerned that his entire abdomen hurts and that it's come on extremely fast.
I just love Aras, even looking like a Meth addict.
On the massage table we see Danielle getting roughed up by her masseuse. Cirie says that she picked the guy who looked like he had the strongest hands. He's really working her too and it doesn't look at all pleasant. She's not really enjoying it either and something makes me think that it's Karma. I'm sure it's not comfortable to be laying on those rocks of hers either.
Bruce isn't doing well in the shelter. He's writhing around in pain, moaning, all signs that point to him not being okay. Courtney comes in and asks if he wants her to sing to him. He says no and she does it anyway. Okay Court, remember back a few hours ago when the group voted you most annoying and you wondered why?
At least he's at the foot of the stretcher
Finally it just gets too much and they have to evacuated Bruce. (no pun intended) Some hot Australian guy comes to the shelter to evaluate his condition. I have no idea what he said, because I was concentrating on the hot accent. The EMT asks Shane to help carry Bruce on a stretcher and Shane asks if they need to do it right now. What kind of a**hole question is that? We realize the reason he asks this is because he's buck naked. Not really sure why he doesn't hurry up and put on some shorts, but he doesn't. If I didn't feel bad for Bruce already...
The next day, on Exile Island, Terry talks some more about having the target on his back and needing to win Immunity. With Courtney and Shane, they agree to watch each other's backsides. Huh? They start arguing about something stupid and Shane tells us that if he's going to take anyone to the final two it's going to be Courtney. I have to say, this plan is genius. I would never vote for her.
When Aras, Danielle and Cirie get back, no one's really there to greet the boat. When they get into the camp Courtney tells them that Bruce had to leave the night before. I also notice that Courtney has Bruce's sketch book, doing something in it. I really hope this dumb bitch is watching this and realizing exactly why it is why people don't like her. Taking their luxury item and writing in it when they're in the hospital doesn't really let people know how great you are. Aras sits down with Shane to talk about why Cirie chose him and Danielle to go and to make him feel like it's still the three of them to the final three. Shane is pissed, and shows it by saying he's carried Cirie's 300 pound ass through this game. Where I think he probably did carry her a bit, it's really unnecessary to go there. Luckily, Cirie doesn't hear that and has a lovely talk with Shane to make him feel better. Yeah yeah, she would have rather taken him but that wasn't in the plan with Danielle. Yeah yeah, they're still in an alliance. And of course, at the end, he makes them swear on their kids, which they both do.
Courtney, Cirie and Danielle pretend they care for Bruce and clean off his rock garden, spelling, "Luv U Bruce" with rocks. How nice. Pretty soon a boat shows up with Terry and Jeff. The team's not happy to see Terry back and I'm perplexed. He seems like a nice guy, why are they all so mad at him? Regardless, Jeff comes in and sits everyone down. I'm a little worried until they show a shot of Jeff and he's smiling. This bastard might just be happy someone's hurting. Anyway, he explains to everyone the situation, that when Bruce got to the hospital they found his colon and bladder completely backed up. Unfortunately he's not going to return to the game. He may be able to come back for Tribal Councils to be on the jury, but they're not sure yet. They all pretend they're upset but really, are you? You're that much closer to $1 million. Because they lost someone this round, there isn't going to be an Immunity Challenge or Tribal Council. Terry survives one more week, so I'm happy.
