Stephenie whined that is was an easy challenge & that they should have won. I don’t know where she gets that from cuz she typically doesn’t win anything, easy or not.

Nakum lays around cuz of the heat. Brandon & Judd actually get in the Croc infested water to cool off. They put up their tarp & Margaret suggests how it should go up & this infuriates the guys cuz they don’t want to be mothered.

Brianna cooks over at Yaxha while Steph & Rafe complain about her cooking. Rafe eats some termites & again Steph is whining about it. I don’t know why she can’t just worry about herself.

For Immunity they have war paint & feathers to play a local game of basketball that is called “Courtball” in 114 degrees. It is 3 on 3 on an elevated court & you can’t dribble the ball or walk when you have it. You just have to throw it around the court & try to get it in the hoops. It was tied 1-1. Amy hurt her ankle. Lydia messed up & ran w/ the ball. Nakum took the lead & then was up 3-1. Yaxha came back to make it 3-2 & then they tied it up again. Nakum took a 4-3 lead. On the last game Brianna just stood there & didn’t even try. So NAKUM won Immunity. & again, Stephenie whines about it.

Jamie said he doesn’t like Brianna. Brianna tells Stephenie she will vote out Lydia cuz she doesn’t trust her.

At Tribal Council Stephenie said she is frustrated. Brianna voted for Lydia saying she can’t look her in the eye. Jamie voted for Brianna cuz she is a girly girl. Stephenie said she has to do what is right for the tribe.

Brianna got 5 votes to Lydia’s 1. Brianna said it is survival of the fittest.

10/6: Nakum is just laying around. Not just cuz of the heat but also cuz the mosquitoes are so bad. Yaxha doesn’t seem to be as affected as Gary & Rafe put cornmeal in a bowl in the water to catch minnows.

They meet up w/ Probst for what they THINK is the Reward Challenge. Well I guess it is still a Reward but not for a tribe & it more individual. Probst said this is their chance to find out what the others in their tribe think of them & they get to learn about the opposing tribe. He will ask a question that they all have to write down a tribemember’s name as the answer. First one was who is in most need of nourishment? The majority of Yaxha said Jamie & Nakum said Danni. So those 2 were rewarded w/ an apple.

Who is the smelliest? Yaxha – Gary. Nakum – Bobby John. So they each got to take a quick shower but then had to put back on their smelly clothes.

Which 2 are in most need of a picnic on top of the pyramid? Yaxha – Gary & Amy. Nakum – Margaret & Judd. So they got to leave & have chicken, potato salad, chocolate chip cookies & iced tea & have their picnic on top of the pyramid.

Who has the most Tribe Pride? Yaxha – Brain. Nakum – Cindy. So those 2 get to stay w/ their tribes & the remaining have to switch sides. So Jamie, Lydia, Rafe & Stephenie are now Nakum and Blake, Bobby Jon, Brandon & Danni are now Yaxha. So Nakum is divided equally 4/ 4 while Yaxha has 4 Nakums to 3 Yaxhas.

When the picnickers return to their camps they are shocked at the switch. Danni immediately starts on Gary for being a QB but he continues to deny it. There was fruit awaiting them all to welcome them to their new tribes. Blake & Bobby Jon decide if they lose Immunity that Amy will be the one to go. Amy knows she is in jeopardy cuz of her ankle & tries not to show that it still hurts. Judd is happy to turn on Nakum & team up w/ Yaxha cuz he claims he didn’t feel any love at his old tribe.

Immunity was another Race where first they have to paddle out & get 3 bags full of war clubs. Then they have to paddle back to shore & throw the clubs at targets that are 30, 40 & 50 feet away. A member can throw as many as they want but can only break 1 each. First tribe to break all 3 wins. Lydia sat out for the new Nakum.

Nakum pushed Yaxha’s boat off course so they got the lead. It got close throwing at the targets but eventually YAXHA WON.

Margaret tried to talk some sense into Judd that if he jumps to the other side that he will be their #5 & it will be 4 against him. Judd said that made him think. Sure it did. He then tells Stephenie he is onboard.

At Tribal Council Probst brought up that Stephenie seems to always be on the losing team & wondered if she is bad luck. She has wondered the same.

We saw Brooke & Margaret vote for Lydia & Rafe vote for Brooke. Lydia only got 3 votes as Judd turned on his tribe & was the 5th vote to take out Brooke.

10/13: Judd feels good about stabbing his tribe in the back. He defends his decision to Margaret. Amy asked the guys all about farming as she has no idea what it entails. Brian is uncomfortable that his tribe has to pray on everything. But he goes along w/ it cuz he doesn’t want to be a target.

For Reward they had to have one member cut a rope w/ a stone & then they would get to handles. Then the next person would chop a log for 2 more handles. Then the team would go to a platform & use the handles as a turnstile & get a cart up the hill. Then they would get in the cart & release it & race back down. The tribe that finishes first gets margaritas, chips, dip, guacamole & a floating crocodile proof swim cage that includes decking, lunge chair & umbrella. Jamie & Brandon start & Brandon gets through it fast. Jamie doesn’t until Yaxha finished the race so Yaxha totally killed them to win Reward. Judd bitched at Cindy while Stephanie again whined. I liked her last season but she is on my last nerve this one. She whines & whines that her tribe sucks & never realizes the common thread is HER! She said she is always on the less able group & said it sucks. No hon, it is you who sucks.

Brian & Blake are able to sleep in the shelter in the rain. The rest of their tribe is up all night & are miserable. We got a segment showing that Blake really likes to talk about himself. Brian tells us his new game is called “Bait Blake” where he encourages him to talk about himself so he pisses off everyone else. Lydia blew off steam by acting goofy & dancing.

For Immunity they had to be in 2 groups of 3 & have one person who would launch balls w/ a catapult & the teams would have to try to catch it w/ a net. First team w/ 5 catches wins. Brian & Lydia did the launching. Stephenie bitched some more & despite her, Nakum won.

Amy refers to Blake as “Golden Boy” cuz everything works out for him so you knew this guy was a goner. Both Danni & Bobby Jon turned on their boy & Blake was voted out. He didn’t see it coming. He was angry & figures they were just trying to get out someone strong & he thinks it was too early for that move.

10/20: Brandon was a little thrown by Blake being voted out. He doesn’t know how that happened. Bobby Jon said he had to do it cuz Blake was rubbing people the wrong way.

Nakum is dealing w/ a nasty mosquito problem. They are all over. Margaret has kept to herself since Judd betrayed their tribe & Rafe said she brings the camp down w/ her negativity.

The tribes show up for Reward challenge & had to bring the Immunity Idol. This game would be 2-on-2 pushing a big boulder to a finish line. The 1st team to score 3 goals wins a BBQ. Probst tells them that BOTH teams will go to Tribal Council that night. Only the winning tribe will go on to play another game for INDIVIDUAL Immunity. & then that person would also get to sit in on the other tribes’ Tribal Council to listen in.

Of course Lydia was chosen to sit out once again. The first match was Stephanie & Cindy against Amy & Danni. Amy & Danni won. Brandon & Bobby Jon went against Judd & Jamie & the JJs won. Jamie celebrated by yelling so Bobby Jon got in his face & yelled at him. They didn’t say anything you could understand. Think caveman. Judd & Stephanie went against Gary & Amy. The ball rolled on Amy after she fell & she was hurt. So Judd & Stephanie won. That didn’t stop Amy. She went in the next round w/ Danni against Margaret & Cindy to win & tie it up. The BBs went against the JJs for the final round & it was the JJs who took it so Nakum won Reward & the chance at Immunity.

Now it was a race to complete a puzzle. They had to run to where their bags were tied & untie one at a time & bring it back to their station. Once they had all 3 bags they could untie them to reveal 11 letters. They had to figure out the 2-word phrase. Judd got his bags to the station but couldn’t get them open. He was looking over Rafe’s shoulder to see his letters & he figured out the phrase that pays & said it out loud. So Rafe used it & won Individual Immunity even though he didn’t even compete in the 1st round.

Nakum talked about Bobby Jon being crazy. Bobby Jon said Jamie was all cocky & arrogant & felt he crossed a line so he put him in his place. Brian wants to vote Bobby Jon out & talked to Gary about it. Gary tells us he doesn’t want to vote out Bobby Jon cuz he is a stronger player.

Judd is all cocky & says that Margaret will be voted off. He isn’t worried about Tribal Council at all cuz he says the tribe knows they need his big guns. Then his big guns proceeds to steal other people’s beer. Margaret tells us that Judd is the most offensive person at camp. Judd talks a big game says whoever stole the beer will be the one voted out. Then he is his jerkoff self to us & said he doesn’t care if he did take someone’s beer cuz they wouldn’t have the hot dog or hamburgers if not for him. He tells the tribe he hopes they enjoyed it & they can kiss his ass. What a charmer.

At Tribal Council Probst again talks to Stephanie first. She is the star of the show after all. Margaret & Judd get into it & while she talks respectfully, Judd is an asshole while Stephanie smirks. Judd tells Margaret to shut up. He even stands up at one point as he is yelling & carrying on. Rafe said that Judd does have a temper. Stephanie said he is like her, high strung. Stephanie goes on to defend her buddy & said the situation was “retarded”. Judd voted for Margaret telling her to “get out now”. Margaret voted for Judd saying he is a bully & no one like him deserves the million dollars. I agree. Judd’s bullying worked though & the whole tribe voted Margaret out.

Rafe moves to the jury side while Yaxha comes in. Bobby Jon said he & Jamie were just in the heat of the moment when they were yelling at each other. Gary does think Nakum are good sports but Jamie can be cocky. Bobby Jon talked about how great Brian is & that he knows everything about ‘Survivor’ & that he is a good ‘ole boy. Brandon said he was impressed w/ Amy that she was hurt but went right back in. Bobby Jon said no one has done anything wrong to be voted out. It just has to be done.

Then another twist. Rafe gets to give his Immunity to someone. He goes off to vote & then has to leave his necklace & leave w/out knowing the results. Yaxha also doesn’t know. They have to vote first & then it will be revealed. Brian voted for Bobby Jon saying this is the “Outwit” part. Bobby Jon voted for Brian saying he is a good kid & should be proud of how he played. Bobby Jon got one vote & Brian got 4. He is out unless Rafe gave him Immunity. Nope. Rafe gave it to Gary so Brian is out. Brian said he didn’t see it coming & was glad he didn’t.

Next week Amy confronts Gary about being a QB. Nakum sees Yaxha at their dock.
