Tribal Council. Probst asks Marcus whether anyone in their tribe immediately jumped out as an interesting variable. Marcus fingers Ace, causing Paloma to state that Ace attempts to be the "head honcho" all the time. When Probst pokes her, Paloma tells Probst that she's "not going there". Kelly then nonsensically tells Probst that Ace is an asset because he's condescending. People look around quizzically, astounded at her idiocy, even though she's just looking for an excuse to berate Ace in a public setting. Probst asks Ace whether all of this attention worries him when it comes to the vote tonight, and he says that it does. Paloma totally calls him out, announcing that he didn't even bring his bag with him. Burn! Good for her. You can tell she totally knows she's leaving and is just pulling out all the stops.

"Okay, I give up. The accent isn't real. My name is actually Carl and I'm a plumber from New Jersey."

Voting! We see Paloma vote for Ace, and Ace vote for Paloma. When Jeff tallies the votes, there are two for Ace (the other came from Kelly) and the rest are for Paloma, and she's gone. That's too bad, I think I would have liked her sassiness.

Next week: some sort of twist!

JustJesse:

Good recap!! I didn't even think about the fact that Sugar had a map and Dan didn't...How is that fair? Then again, its Survivor, so what do you expect.

I saw a commercial on TV today that they are picking new tribes this week. I hate when they do that, but its always cool when alliances end up getting split up. So, maybe it will be a good things. Anyways, thanks again for the recap!

Schoon, you tossed off some of the funniest lines you've gotten off since "Two People I Don't Give A Shit About So Who Cares Theatre."

But: The next time Lil' Marcus comes out for air, are we only supposed to notify Flip? Did no one think to send Foz a link to that naked photo of Dallas from "The Amazing Race"? (Which I'll also take, now that his mother's lawyers have intervened.)

geewits:

I felt like an idiot. All through the beginning of the show I kept saying, "Why are they showing all this Kota strategy, when we know they're not going to tribal council?" As for Sugar's map I thought each successive person got an extra clue. No? I thought they did. Usually I'm on board with the internet majority, but I like Ace. And thanks for the shout out to Eden, NC!

schoonie:

I think they change it up from season to season, as far as giving out successive clues goes. I think they've either done the "4 clues in four different places" thing, or the "the idol is really hard to find, so you get an extra clue every time" thing. They've never done both, like they have this year. And it's never been a map.

itchy:

I don't see the hidden immunity idol adding all that much interest to the game anyway. You'd think they'd come up with something better after all this time.

It always takes me a long while to get into the cast of a new Survivor season. So far I don't really care much about anyone. I kind of like the Pinup.

Although I'll be happy to see GC leave -- he didn't give up so easily when it was a scramble for individual immunity, did he?

Oh yeah...can someone do an experiment and draw some Borat hair and a mustache on Ace's head? I'm just saying...Ace? Really? Why not Snoopy?

mrsc:

Ohhhh was I glad to see the little mouse gone! I actually told Mr C that if I die and he remarries someone who talks like that, I will haunt him forever. He told me not to worry.

Come to think about it, if you had to live with someone who made dogs come running every time you spoke... that is punishment enough.

And LOL on the "send the wanker shots to Flipit first" rule. OK schoonie, you don't make de rules but we can now guess who does! :D

mrsc:

Oh and wanted to add:

thanks for the great recap!

That first screenshot was great; showed how awesome Crystal was- she was pulling both of them! You go girl!

And who was it that gave up their blue jockey's to Paloma and Sugar? Now that is chivalry!

Snootchy Bootches:

The ultimate "Ace is a douchebag" moment for me this episode was when he was talking about how poorly Paloma did in the reward competition. Um... Let's see now. Paloma is about 1/5 the size/weight of Ace, right? Yet the EXACT same two people who took Paloma out also took Ace out! And who did poorly? Oh right... Paloma. A-hole.

malcolms:

This is the 1st time I've visited this site, and I usually never post anything, anywhere. But after reading this, "Randy tells us that he doesn't believe that it's possible to win with the Fang tribe over shots of GC attempting to break a large chunk of wood into pieces, and succeeding only in making himself look like an escaped mental patient. That's when you know might be doomed: when you're locked in a battle of wits with a piece of wood, and the wood is winning decisively." and then the caption in the pic underneath it. I laughed so hard I literally had tears running down my face lol. I hated that GC retard and am so glad that he got booted off. Keep up the good (and hilarious) work! :)
