Not a great blindside by Kama, allowed two to keep their idols as well as they were no doubt informed how it was going. Victoria did a much better move with a bluff to take out someone with an idol. A bluff would have worked again here.

"I'M READY TO JUMP SHIP :oh: "

is that miss Julia snapping?

Yeah it was honestly a very dumb move by Kama, partly why it was still a bit shocking to me that it actually happened... but I will gladly take some stupidity for Kelley's side to still have a fighting chance :clap1:

Even if the merge boot order were to start sucking now, this has actually become a surprisingly good season despite the questionable "island" twist. It's usually more of a detriment to the season but it's not hurting this one at all and the island scenes are not that bad or even great additions to the episodes!

I wasn't near a computer last week and didn't feel like going mobile so here are my belated thoughts! Sad to see #KamaStrong get broken up and not make it to the family visit but I hope I enjoy out of power Ron even more than I enjoy in power Ron? I need him and Julie to corner Julia and Gavin and yell at them like Toni yelled at Werner please and thank you :love:

Obviously the other highlight of the episode was OTTNrora <33333333333333 I laughed so hard during the entire Challenge between her shamelessly begging for Immunity and this whole exchange:

Medical team: Lauren, you just passed out.
Lauren: Damnit :( That's so embarrassing.

Am I the only one who cannot sum up how I feel about this season? :skull:

Oh and I also loooooooved Rick, who really was never that bad and people have been hating bc he's a high vis str8 white male lbr, getting so ****ing sarcastic with Wardog and leaving him dumbfounded :joker: And then being super defiant with David and then casually going "oh I was hoping to get the other half of the Idol back btw :3" <333333

I feel the same way! At face value I'm definitely entertained enough and the Edge of Extinction twist isn't nearly as disastrous as I had anticipated. At the same time though, the editing is a ****ing mess. The Eric/Ron duo came out of nowhere, Gavin backstabbing Eric wasn't even made into a big deal, Julia supposedly is really tight with Gavin but we never saw any of that... all in all the dynamics of Kama are such a mess bc nothing was shown prior to last night's episode.

But even with all of that, the editing of last night's episode was really damn great as a singular entity? I loved the back and forths between the convos of David/Rick, Eric/Ron, Ron/Aurora, Lauren/Kelley, etc and the editing of the Challenge was hilariously hokey. It all built up to a really entertaining episode, but the storytelling across the season isn't coherent at all.

and Shady Vicky suddenly changing her mind

Here we go :clap1:

Gavin seems to have NO CHANCE at winning :joker:

I can't wait until Survivor 42 when everyone is talking about how they need to build up their resume on Day 2 :rolleyes:

UM we wanna hear Reem's story

JULIA has been running the show for a long time, fyi [citation ****ing needed]

Julie's a kinda funny mess so far this ep :joker:

Wholia boot teas?

Lmao, reward edited out?

I wouldn't mind if it was edited off the show entirely!

Pull thru Gavin

I’m in America, it’s weird watching this and it being 8pm

:bored:

GAH David so close :(

Gavin is remarkably boring omg.

Then again so is David :shrug:

Rick still trying Wentworth :skull:

Rick's thirst to take out the Lesu 3 :skull:

No @ second line but you are correct with the first one

Julia tanking ha own game
