Nice Boobies! - 
by B-Side
After Raro's cataclysmic blowout of Aitu last week on Survivor, it looked like we were headed towards an unpredictable path of destruction: the strong alpha males routing out the older, scrappier bunch. But when the older, scrappier bunch is willing to destroy a boobie nest (my favorite new term), you know they're gonna have a lot more fight than their decrepit looks might reveal. Plus, if there's anything we learned from Tom Weston, it's that you can never count out the underdog. Yes, Aitu fought back this week, easily defeating their rivals for reward. But could they pull off a two-fer with immunity? After all, Raro does have all the muscles, brawn and Aaron Eckhart-ness. Let's relive the show to find out, shall we?
This week's episode began right away as the pre-show recap led directly into the action, not the opening credits as usual (a little trick from The Apprentice). Anyway, we started things off at the Aitu beach directly after Tribal Council as a mixed crowd of crabs and rats carried on a veritable Spring Mixer amongst the various coconuts around camp. My mind nearly exploded seeing all these critters: too... many... metaphors...
The banquet came to an abrupt close, however, when those infernal humans returned to camp. As everyone grappled with the post-elimination malaise, Yul expressed guilt for voting Cecelia off the island. Of course, that didn't make Ozzy feel any better, especially now that he'd lost his ally from the original Aitu tribe. What else to do but sulk around camp? At one point, Yul asked him something about crabs, but Ozzy curtly snipped back, "No. I don't like hermit crabs." Baby don't like hermit crabs, then baby don't get hermit crabs!
Well, just because Ozzy didn't like crabs didn't mean he couldn't act like one. He complained to us about being on the outside, and as we all know, there's no better way to improve outsider status than by moping around and being a dick. "If they want to vote me out, they should do it soon so I don't have to keep catching food for them," he whined. Woe is Ozzy, the reluctant fisherman!
Ultimately, he honed his inner spoiled seven year old girl and declared to us, "I don't feel like playing along anymore!" I'm sure Billy would love to hear that after Ozzy had orchestrated his elaborate ouster.
Speaking of Billy, his wayward temptress Candice returned from Exile Island the next day, and immediately, Jessica was full of questions. Why would the other team have sent her to Exile Island? Candice surmised that it was because she was young and stuff, but Jessica believed that Adam and Parvati were intending to protect her and their original whitey alliance. This all blew Candice's mind, causing her to say, "I don't know. You guys are asking good questions because I haven't even thought about any of this. I didn't have time!" Seriously, she had no time. It's not like she was stuck alone on an island for twenty-four hours.
Actually, what we thought was Candice acting moronic was merely just an act. She suspected that Adam and Parvati may have been protecting her from going to Tribal Council, but she didn't want to let on that there could be any ties; so she just went about acting dumb. At one point, someone informed her that since she missed Tribal Council, she was therefore immune from it, causing her to remark, "I didn't even think that!" Okay, Candice. C'mon, that's not playing dumb. That's playing borderline retarded.
Meanwhile, over at Raro, as a curious lizard poked around the shrubbery, the manly men all sat around on their asses, not doing work -- perhaps reminiscing about those heady days of yore when they'd all pick up rocks and walk around with them for no reason. JP, who was rapidly aging before our eyes, informed us that the four guy alliance (himself, Nate, Adam, Brad) was definitely relaxed. And why shouldn't they be? After all, they were in the minority on their team, and it's not like Survivor is a numbers game or anything like that. Oh wait...
Truth was they were banking on the fact that they'd rock every single competition from here on out; so why even worry about Tribal Council if you ain't gonna be going there in the first place, dawg? You feel me?
