We’re doing something different and rocking the Photocap this week, because I don’t want you guys to have to wait any longer to discuss what turned out to be a totally rad episode. So, here goes!

s19e8001.jpg

“Hey, what are we going to do next? I need to know so I can take credit for it.”

s19e8002.jpg

“I’m so mad at Laura for losing a canteen, I could just…go and lose another chicken! Or a snorkel! In fact, I think I’ll lose this rock RIGHT NOW!”

s19e8003.jpg

“I understand that you’re upset, but me and the Hell’s Baptist Angels have to go rob a bank now.”

s19e8004.jpg

“Hmmm, it appears that we’ve lost another challenge simply by opening this note.”

s19e8005.jpg

“Yaaay, merge! We’re cannon fodder now, instead of merely pathetic losers!”

s19e8006.jpg

“Let’s fatten you up before we inevitably destroy you.”

s19e8007.jpg

“What should we call our new tribe? Hey, how about something that completely disagrees with the concept of this game?”

“Why, that’s a great idea! What’s Samoan for “Everyone Wins A Million Dollars And Hugs A Whole Bunch”? Wait, that has no translation? Then what’s Samoan for “Extended Family?”

s19e8008.jpg

“…it is my only weapon, and I am looking for a way to completely squander it. Would you happen to know how? What’s that, I should show it to absolutely everyone? Well, okay, but I MUST GET RID OF YOU.”

s19e8009.jpg

“I AM A MASTERMIND! HERE IS INFORMATION ABOUT THIS THING I COULD PROBABLY USE TO DESTROY YOU! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS VOTE OUT YOUR BEST FRIEND! Wait, what’s that? You don’t want to? Shit.”

s19e8010.jpg

“Hey, I tried to show this to everyone earlier, but I think you were off in the woods or something, so I wanted to make sure you knew I had it. That way, it’ll be completely useless and my evil plan will be complete! By the way, do you want to get rid of Laura? Also, I am short.”

s19e8012.jpg

“Now that they’ve all shut me down, they are my puppets! By plan to completely fuck myself over is almost complete.”

s19e8011.jpg

“Hey, since all the people that ARE NOT completely idiotic have turned me down, would you like to indulge my Napoleon complex?”

s19e8013.jpg

“Wait, did you just ask me if Tee Ball is my game? Do I look FIVE YEARS OLD, Probst?”

s19e8014.jpg

“Yaaaaaay, I win!”

s19e8015.jpg

“Shit, now what?”

s19e8016.jpg

“Hey, let’s get rid of Monica! We were going to do it anyway and we have like a million people on our team.”

s19e8018.jpg

“Erik wants us all to vote for you, Monica! We should team up and get rid of him instead. See how strategy actually works, RUSSELL?”

s19e8021.jpg

“What was that about strategy, Natalie? I’m to busy doing awesome stuff for the camera to pay attention to a stupid girl.”

s19e8020.jpg

“Man, you guys are useless. Especially you, blond girl! You will never succeed in defeating me.”

s19e8022.jpg

“Aaaaaaaaaah shit.”

    HAHAHAHAHA!
    Brilliant!!!!

    What a douche! Complete blindside! His facial expressions were priceless as Probst read the votes.
    Pretty good episode.

    I thought Shamwow lost Laura’s canteen? Any chance Shambot’s been planting “Russell Seeds” too?

    Been wondering how the producers are going to be able to help the lil’ guy out now that he’s basically exposed himself as the total douchebag we already knew he is. Given the track record of the previews this season (i.e., spoiling the episodes), perhaps we really can look forward to the joy of him getting the boot?

    Kind of doubt it. Won’t at least one of the idols come back into play now? (I hope not, I think they add nothing to the game). It’ll be easy enough for the crew to tell him where the new idol is too. But the show is only really going to become interesting once he’s gone.

    Sorry, Mr. D and Juddfan.

    Eric is… a complete dork. Going out with the idol in his pocket?

    I’m rooting for Monica as one of the hottest Survivorettes of all time. Really enjoy the contrast between her and the frumpy rasta blonde in the baggy boxer shorts.

    I second 2muchBravo’s post.

    Leading up to TC, I had NO idea which was the vote was going to go.

    Watching Eric’s facial expressions was well worth the wait!

    Schoonie, I’m not one of those people who feels entitled to a full recap, but I was looking forward to this one in particular just because of how this was really the first real gameplay we’ve seen, and Eric’s taunting of the people who would oust him minutes later was beyond entertaining. Very funny photocap though. I kind of liked Eric until this episode, but maybe he was a douche all along and was just getting a kind edit. Seeing Russell try his stupid shit with the Galus and getting completely belittled and shot down was priceless. He looked like Wile-E-Coyote when he goes too far over the edge of the cliff and sees he has no ground beneath him. His delusional antics have grown beyond tiresome and I can’t wait for him to get off my TV.

    Schoonie are you sure you’re not Flipit? This is the kind of cheesy, bargain basement recap that Flipit does for DWTS. This recap does not sound like the Schoonie I admire and love. There isn’t enough anger, contempt or hostility in this recap to make me believe that Schoonie wrote this.

    Anyway, whoever wrote this: Thank you for all the pictures of SexyBack Russell. I can never get enough of them.

    That Erik guy was a humongous asshole at tribal council. Good Riddance. I want ICKY ponytail guy to go next. That way he can get back to having sex with ALL THOSE ladies that are waiting for him on the outside. Oh, wait a minute! I can’t believe there is a woman desperate enough to have sex with ICKY ponytail guy. I suspect ICKY ponytail guy is ONLY having sex with his palm. Ewwww. He is such a creepazoid! Ewwww. I want ICKY ponytail guy to join Erik at the Ponderosa.

    P.S. Go SEXYBack Russell. Beat Galu!

    Oh yes, thank you Schoonie this photocap was awesome. The only thing that could of made it more so was a shot of Erik (Shamo: “WHO?” lmao!) when each vote was read. It was like, “ok, 1, no big deal.”
    “2- well, it probably was that bitch, Monica.”
    “3- uhhh, wth’s going on?”
    “4- fuuuuuuuuuuck!”

    itchy,

    On Monica – damn. Can’t agree more. I even have my g/f on board with this one. It’s the combination of makeshift miniskirt, and knee high socks… I don’t care if she smells like a foot at this point, she still looks stunning in her HD jungle glory.

    Funny caps! Sorry Mr. D but I’m pretty sure Russell is goooone! His exit speech will be “They recognized my supreme skills so they had to vote me off when they had the chance.” Umm no Lepraskidmarkshorty you had no skills at all! LOL JasonR at Wile ref, you nailed it. Loved when Shambo said “Eric? who?”. She is so dumb she doesn’t even know the names of her own tribe mates. I wonder if they have to give her a cheat sheet at tribal council.

    Love the photo cap and agree with all, except, for me, natch, it will not be better without Mr. D’s obsession!

    You’re right, Mrs. C–there were some kodak moments as those votes were read, esp Shamwow!

    Great photocap Schoonie.

    “Erik wants us all to vote for you, Monica! We should team up and get rid of him instead. See how strategy actually works, RUSSELL?”

    I love that caption – I especially love that it was from of the girls in his “Dumbass Girl Alliance” wouldn’t it be great if one of those Dumbass Girls won the whole shebang?

    re: monica….i am starting to come on board…if you will pardon the expression, but I am still a big Natalie fan…her body is killer, and she is beautiful as well…plus she is showing some smarts…and that accent….omg….

    Just can’t get on board the fake titty bandwagon. Though I’ll give Natalie credit for probably being a better player. Or at least being able to pretend to be able to stand being near the Leprechaun.

    So far Monica has only stayed around because she keeps getting lucky.

    And wouldn’t it be great if Shamdoh’s dumb act turns out to be all strategy?

    Shamwow with a strategy? I think that’s a stretch – but it would be the shock of the century if that were the case.

    So Itchy – when you dismissed fake breasticles you earned a little smidgeon of respect from me. Just had to sign in and say that.

    Aw shucks. I’ll take what I can get.

    ‘Course, if that’s a ‘smidgeon’ like my mom likes to give, that’s a whole lot. Love ya mom!

    Natalie is my girl! I got (stuck with) her in my Survivor pool. She just may be able to parlay her sweetness and “I love Jesus” thing to ingratiate herself with the Galu girls, especially Laura, to survive the purge of Foa Foa members and go pretty far.

    The irony of the tribal council is that Erik didn’t say anything about Foa Foa that wasn’t true. I’m not sure if it was an epic tribal council, but it was certainly entertaining, even knowing the result all these days later!

    As far as Shambo, she reminds me of Dreamz from Fiji… physically strong, but a social non-entity. Because she is so useless, she will make it to the end because other tribe members will carry her thinking that no one will vote for her. I think that if she can navigate the politics and admit to things she did in camp, she could score a few votes.

    Laura looks more and more like heinous bitch Corinne from two seasons back and the only reason I could stand Corinne is because of her vitriolic hate for Sugar.

    slutty_whore:
    Hee-hee I’m a Sugar hater too! She said my one most hated sentences in reality TV “I just want one of the good people to win”. Shamwow is an enigma wrapped in a mullet.
