What????!!? Wow. I totally did not see that one coming. She tells Skupin that with that information she’s hoping they can convince Pete into keeping Skupin and blindsiding Malcolm. Skupin is thrilled to hear Lisa’s plan because it means he’ll stick around for longer.
As they start to talk about what happens if Penner doesn’t win immunity that night, up walks Penner. He has a knack for that, doesn’t he? They don’t do a terrible job of covering the fact that they were talking about him, but they don’t do a great job either. Penner KNOWS that without immunity he is ELEPHANT FUCKED at tribal. He doesn’t want that.
Have you seen the size of an elephant cock?!?
Time for the immunity challenge!
This one is a two parter. The first part involves them racing over and under a series of obstacles while collecting puzzle pieces along the way. The first three to cross the line will move on to the final round where they will use the puzzle pieces to solve a snake puzzle. This is going to be really boring if Penner can’t at least make it into the final round.
And he does!
WOW! I have to admit that I was on the edge of my seat during this challenge because it really looked like Skupin (who is probably on the chopping block if Penner is safe) might edge him out. But it’s Penner, Jeff, and Pete in the puzzle round.
It’s SO AWKWARD as the puzzle solving is happening because everyone is obviously routing for any but Penner. Pete starts out strong on the puzzle with Jeff coming in second and Penner bringing up the rear. But Penner has a plan and that plan proves to be a good one
As he freaking wins immunity!
WowWowWow!! I am impressed that he was able to pull out a win when he so desperately needed it. Especially given the fact that the dude has never won individual immunity before. Color me impressed, Penner!
Of course everyone else is disappointed because he foiled their grand plan to get rid of him. That win must taste pretty good.
DELICIOUS! nomnomnomnomnomnomnom
Once back at camp everyone is trying to figure out what the new game plan is going to be. Pete, Malcolm, Jeff, Spicoli, and Lisa all get together and agree that it should be Skupin since he’s a veteran player and they don’t want a returning player to win.
But then…..Lisa pulls Pete aside and pitches a different plan. She thinks that they should blindside Malcolm because he has the hidden immunity idol. But they CANNOT under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES let Malcolm even suspect that they know that he has it.
Hey, I heard you have the hidden immunity idol.
What? Huh? Who said that? Was it Lisa? Gulpgulpgulp.
If you like it, spread it!:

I lol at the hot sauce comments every time, pottymouth!
I’m looking forward to Probst possibly bringing up Kent’s parting comments on the reunion episode…would love to hear him try to backpeddle…
Oh yes, I forgot that Juggs was out just before the election. Poor crankyguy! No wonder he’s been crankier than usual. But at least we agreed on Juggs! In fact, I was skeptical about her, but he won me over to his point of view! Who’d've thunk it! Compromise CAN happen!
Scabby Maria has got to be one of the biggest idiots to play this game in years. Almost as bad as Hantz (both I and II).
I can’t help but root for Penner. I’m really hoping Denise, Malcolm and him join forces.
Penner and Denise are my faves. Malcolm is pretty good too.
Scabby Maria and Pete are perfect for each other….they’re both complete dumb-fucks.
I new ludacrist was wrong. Finding the right spelling was tough.
I should get paid the big tvgasm bucks for this one (ha): ludicrous
new = knew
lol I hate when that happens.
Well, Itchy, at least you can see her at tribal . . . she was looking good all cleaned up!
I’m not sure where things are with Jeff gone, tho . . . numbers wise, but I’m still rooting for Denise, and I’m glad to see Lisa playing the game. Why didn’t Penner just vote for Jeff? Curious . . .
I’m about to lose control and I think I like it!!!! Thanks Potty!!! Mwah!
@msjacqmills – I agree, Penner and Denise are great. I don’t remember Penner’s first season, but he is doing great this time around. It seems the only reason he is hated is because he is a returning player. Denise has somehow flown under the radar through both of her merges.
I hope Lisa’s antics before and during tribal back fire on her. She clearly cannot be trusted with anything now. She is sort of like Maria but pretends to be super sweet.
On page 3, there is a picture of Maria, caption “Blabbity blahbitty boo”. She looks like Jo from Facts of Life (yes, Lisa’s show).
@juddfan – My take on Penner voting for Abi is that he can honestly say to Jeff that he didn’t vote for him. Penner knew that Jeff had made a move against him and I guess payback is a mother.
The best part is by voting for Scabies Maria, Penner probably knows he can stir her up, since she’s batshit crazy, and she’ll chase off anyone who might still have been loyal to her.
I’m really hoping Lisa takes a big fall — I got a little hopeful for a second there about her playing the game, but then she revealed that her strategy involves being an idiot.
So Penner is a “bottom” ????
I had too—and my code is Jiminy Cricket– tee hee
ok–will focus, read and comment in a more grown-uppy fashion
actually Jeff–you are just a loser. Yeah……..
Now–color me confused but Malcom played the immunity idol right?? SO wasn’t he supposed to fork it over???? If just saying “I am going to play it” is enough of a threat to deny votes for himself then cool.
But as I said in mini-cap–Lisa was right to Out the idol holder–I think thats fair–pre-merge idols s/be flushed out . And also that she is headed for a big fall— she is going to get booted in a spectacular fashion.
@hot cawfee – neither idol was played. That is why there was the long pause and shot of Malcom and Maria after Jeff asked if anyone was going to use their II. So Malcom is got for another tribal because he can actually play it next time. That whole ‘i am going to use my immunity idol so your votes will be wasted’ is part of the game play of the HII. I think in a previous season, someone with the HII did say that, but the other players wanted it used/gone, so they did vote for them, but the holder of the HII was so confident they were not going to actually vote for them, he/she never played it and ended up going home.
It’s pity that I despise real-life Lisa Whelchel so much, because I find Survivor Lisa Whelchel SO fun to watch.
Anyone know why Abi showed off her idol? I could not for the life of me figure that out.
I’m rooting for Denise to win.
I love Penner! He has the BEST voice!!!! I am also loving Survivor Lisa, she has really surprised me. Actually, she is the entire reason why I started randomly watching this season mostly because I thought she’d be a wimp and whine about everything. I was way wrong (and glad I was)
Oh, and what about Kent’s OBAMA comments?! can we talk about THAT?!
just kidding!!!!!! But I do wanna say, I actually had a good time reading everyone’s comments on the mini-cap. I like how we can have those convos, keep it cool, and still be TV Gasm BFF’S
Obviously we can guess who Jeff voted for last week. Fat lotta good that did him. Hearing his little rant after the election seemed kind of like poor timing. What a crybaby…all those millions and he’s a sorehead because he lost $600K (after taxes).
Anyone watch the Ponderosa clips? RC has one of the most annoying laughs. I don’t recall hearing it on the show, but when she’s by herself doing a monolog, it wouldn’t stop!!! Interesting thing tho’ is that both Jeff and she griped about how no one in the merged tribe was playing the game. Oh yeah, then why are those two at the Ponderosa now??? Hellooooo, you two, they sure played both of you!
I cant believe they didn’t even attempt to show the new tribe’s naming because it’s so goddammed funny. I cracked up when I first saw it…Dangrayne. Dang rain. Maybe they should have gone for Damnrayne or Damrayne. They sure hate that effing rain, though lol.
The other players should take note: Malcolm lied to all of them…and Pete totally believed it. Lisa, however, told the truth all the way along…if they would have shut up and listened, they could have gotten a physical threat out of the game.
I knew Penner had the win. Puzzles are his specialty…and Lisa’s. Bothof them are logical and strategic.
Love Penner…love Lisa…love Denise. What a final three that would be, because they’ve all played well so far.
@ootofthehoos,
Naw. They only pay the big bucks to folks with a sense of humor.
pssst…she meant to spell it like that…;)
Take Care, Robin
I am heterosexual, but let me just say, that leopard print bikini pic of Wall Street Juggs is hot hot hot. Dayum.
Pete is a mastermind, my ass. His sole “big mastermind move” was causing the rift between RC & Abi. It doesn’t exactly take a brilliant strategist to make crazy people go crazy.
I agree, the Lisa boot is shaping up like it could be one for the ages, but I’m not getting too excited just yet. I was on pins and needles regarding Jeff’s pro baseball reveal, and we all know how anticlimactic that turned out to be.
Maybe the beans came with the merge (?). Too lazy to rewatch and confirm.
The tribe names on this show have always been stupid.
This has nothing to do with anything, but I kinda want Pete & Malcolm to make out.
@Robin
pssst … I was laughing at myself because I could not remember how to spell ludicrous and it took me forever to find it in the dictionary. I did easily find ludicrist, of course. ha
@ 12 Carol– got ya–thanks for the clarity–I had no idea a threat was enough-lolol. I guess it shows how much Jeff was hated!!! And not just by viewers.
Missed most of this episode. Just finished watching the latest. Thanks for a deliciously detailed delight. And funny as feck.
Funny as Feck? LOL My new favorite word. A mixture of my favorite word and heck! Perfect.
Thanks FuriousFlipper
Robin
Oh, for goodness sakes!
http://wonderwall.msn.com/tv/facts-of-life-star-lisa-whelchel-has-west-nile-1718275.story
I do not believe a word that comes from her mouth.
Robin
@Robin:
You don’t believe that she contracted west nile? Am i missing something? why wouldn’t you believe that?
@sweetblondie:
It is because I never once saw her tell the truth about anything while on Survivor.
“No I wont snitch your idol out..
“no I won’t be two faced
I am loyal, if I give my word I stick to it.
“When I hung up Malcoms clothes, I found the idol” but dont tell him I told you.
I need to sit in the ocean with Pennar and Skupin, one at a time, and lie to them both…
For these reasons and many more ( I just got tired of writing down all of her lies)
I wouldn’t believe a w0rd that came out of her mouth and I also have a sneaky suspision she missed all the attention and wants more now that the lights have dimmed.
She is just so sneeaky to me. And the way that she came out with it was a bit odd. She kept mentioning the recovery period.
I just wonder about her.
Take care, Robin
