You know what?  This is not supposed to happen.  Jeff points out that Russell is just a guy and yet he talks like he thinks he’s Superman and is never supposed to fail.  Russell responds that he is a guy that was formed by god’s hands and that he is a perfect creature.  As far as he’s concerned, that’s the way he’s supposed to live his life.  End of story.

Malcolm and Denise look like they wish they could crawl under a rock as Russell continues.  Excellence, that’s what it’s all about and that’s what his life is all about.

Well, you sure are excellent at throwing temper tantrums

Quit while you’re ahead Jeff.  You can’t reason with him right now.  The whole thing pisses Russell off, but at the same time logically he understands.  Um….okay then.

Jeff sends the winners off with their stuff, the steak dinner for Tandang, while Kalabaw decides to trade in their veggies and pot for the tarp.  Smart choice.

At Matsing’s camp they are understandably depressed.  Malcolm says that his lowest point was after the challenge today and he can’t remember ever feeling so sad.  Not even after his dog died.

Someone needs a hug.

As they wash off the mud from the challenge, Russell and Malcolm have a little chat.  Malcolm tells Russell he should vote for Denise since they have to make sure to keep the tribe as strong as possible.  Malcolm doesn’t really want to vote off Denise, but I’m sure he’d rather the bets be hedged in his favor should Russell pull the hidden immunity idol out of his ass.

Is that where that thing is hiding????

Malcolm makes sure to clue Denise in on the fact that Russell thinks it’s going to be her voted out, but assures her that he’s still with her.  Denise hopes her alliance with Malcolm is as strong as she thinks it is, but she’s also worried about Russell possibly having that pesky hidden idol.  So she also talks to him.

Russell tells her a story about why he got so pissed after losing the challenge that involves him getting beaten up by a couple of kids when he was eight and then retaliating by punching one of those kids in the face.  I‘m not really sure what that has to do with him throwing shit all over the place after a challenge loss.

I was bullied and punched my bully and now I’m a sore loser.  What’s not to understand?!?!?!?

He does make sure to add that he doesn’t approve of violence, but not approving of it and not submitting to acts of violence seem to be two separate things for him.  I mean, I get being pissed off about the constant losses, but I still don’t understand how that story explains or justifies his constant tempers tantrums over losing.

When she isn't screaming curses at various dance show judges or washing her OWN mouth out with soap, PottyMouth is a proud mama to a gorgeous little boy. And yes, she knows everyone says that about their kids, but it's true when she says it. YES IT IS. Fuck you. She also laments throwing away the chance to be a trophy wife, and would like to find a rich husband so she can sit on her ass all day long and watch TV. If you are fabulously wealthy, look like Hugh Jackman (or ARE in fact Hugh Jackman), and are turned on by foul-mouthed, mature, slightly smooshy women, then she just may be the gal for you. Please send picture, references and your latest bank statement for review.

    Great recap! Poor sportsmanship is one of my biggest pet peeves… I hate sore losers! So glad to see Russel go…and i can’t help but wonder if they’d voted him off instead of Roxy, would they have played better as a TEAM and therefore won a challenge or two…shoulda woulda coulda i suppose…

    Sorry, one last comment….

    I really felt bad for Juggs…she seems like a smart, rational lady…so i’m hoping she can get herself out of this little scrape…

    I felt bad for Juggs too. That Ave Maria is crazy. I think she’s missed a dose of her medication. She’s kind of scary to me.

    As for Russell — I’m so glad he’s gone. If he was the best player EVER, at least, I could understand the post game tantrums but half the time he’s partially responsible for the loss so the tantrums always seemed to be a way to divert attention and blame away from himself.

    Denise is from Cedar Rapids, Iowa and everyone knows Iowa is the greatest state of all 50 so her being wonderful just makes sense.

    I don’t find Malcolm handsome but I like how he’s handled a bad situation. He seems very level headed and smart.

    Denise looks like the dad from Juno (JK Simmons).

    Denise is my favorite at the moment and it kills me that the odds are stacked against her. Hopefully she makes it to the inevitable merge, and hopefully the merge will actually mix up the alliances.

    Don’t they usually have a rule about not allowing players to sit out two challenges in a row or is that only when the reward and immunity challenges are separate?

    I kind of like the underdog story though. But you have to assume there’s a shakeup a-comin’ very soon.

    Russell’s an idiot. That’s the only explanation.

    And I’m having serious doubts about Juggs’ brainpower. Oh well. Can’t have everything, I suppose.

    I do find it funny that during the challenge, Russell was weakly laying on the blanket unable to move, but had the energy to “release the cracken!”/display his need for cookies and possibly a naptime moments after the loss.

    I wonder if Ave is the type of person that can admit she was totally batshit and wrong at finale after seeing the season. Or if she’ll come up with some other batshit reason why hating Juggs is OK. I’m betting on the latter.

    Potty Mouth……awesome recap!!!!! I was cracking up at work (ehhh I mean, at home OFF THE CLOCK) while looking at the photocaps, especially the ones on page three (Random Denise and Hot Sauce Lisa)

    I dont really feel sorry for Business Boobs. Seems like she latched onto Crazy Ave because she was the other “token hot chick” in the tribe, without taking a few minutes to realize she’s a psycho. Ooops!!

    I also really like Denise and Malcolm together, they make a good team. Denise kicks ass, and during that challenge I was like OMG at her muscles!

    Also, is it just me, or are the Tribal Immunity statues freakin’ ridiculous looking?! They look like the South Park turkey

    Potty Mouth you are the best! Thanks.

    I am mad at Juggs. I started to like her, then she disapointed the hell out of me when she just accepted that the fucking clue tumbled out of her bag and acted like she was dumbfounded. I am sure she was! But she should have said out loud “who the fuck is setting me up”?

    Russell thinks man is a “perfect creature?” Apparently Russell never made it to the part of the Bible where Adam and Eve screw up Eden.

    Say what you will about Pete, but the guy’s definitely got more game than most of all the others. I hate this three tribe thing and will be glad to see a merge happen…hopefully soon, now that one tribe is down to two. But I’m thrilled that Russell and his massive ego are gone, gone, gone.

    I hope the Kalabow women wipe out the Four Fingers/Moobs/Spicoli manliance (unless the merge mixes shit up of course). So when is that merge happening? I’m ready for it. Bring it on. Will it go to a two-tribe first, or directly to one? So many questions.

    My gaydar is usually decisive and foolproof, but appears to be stuck on “on-the-fence” when it comes to Spicoli.

    Annie – omg South Park turkey is dead on – lololololol!

    Brazilian Nut – YES! (:

    Russell wasn’t saying that man is a perfect creature. He was saying that god made him a perfect creature, which is why it made so little sense that he kept losing. Methinks his braids are too tight.

    Anything with ugly braids and a receding hairline cannot be called perfect.

    That one picture of Pete, with the hoodie up, he almost looks like Colton. I thought that during the show too. Ick.

    I’m hoping that, somehow, Malcolm and Denise make it to the merge together and quickly team up with Juggs and Skupin. Throw in one or two more, maybe the guy alliance with Penner, and they could make a run for it. Though I’m sure what will happen is the norm: if they don’t win individual immunity they will be the first to go.

    You had me at:

    Is that where it is???

    I hope denise goes with the split tribe, and aligns with one of the sides of three. Not as worried about Malcolm, but it would be good to see if they could reunite at the merge.
