Liz and Peter thought they were in complete control of the game in Survivor: Kaoh Rong Episode 3. Then Liz was eliminated.
So now we get to listen to Debbie. You thought Peter and Liz were bad? That was nothing. Debbie is talking like she’s the greatest player ever, while continuing to call Peter names.
For the reward challenge, they will race through obstacles, dig under a log, dig up some balls from a sand pit, and roll the balls in a series of targets. First place gets a kitchen set that includes spices and coffee. Second place has a smaller kit with a few dishes and salt and pepper.
This is all about the digging. There is nothing about this challenge that suggests the Brains can win, but they dumb luck their way into finding the balls first and get a huge lead. Brains win reward. Beauty come in second.
It doesn’t end there. Not only is the digging going on for a long while, but it is intense in the heat. Shortly after the victory, Debbie reluctantly agrees to let Joe call medical for her, or rather she tells him no but he does so anyway. They put her in shade and pour cold water, and she says she feels better pretty quickly.
Then Caleb, after leading his team to second place, collapses as well. He’s not as well off as Debbie, for lack of a better term, and it quickly deteriorates. They have to pull out machines and needles for him, and eventually an evacuation is required. Too bad because I thought Caleb was a bit of a putz after his creepy obsession in Big Brother, but he seemed pretty awesome so far in this game. Now I have to find someone to root for because at least half of the others haven’t shown any redeeming qualities.
Cydney falls alongside him. She’s not particularly responsive, but like Debbie she pulls through okay.
I know they test these challenges and even have teams come in for the sake of practicing them, but this particular challenge is clearly a failure.
Back at camp, it’s business as usual. Alecia confronts Scot because at the challenge he told her to keep cheering for him because that’s all she’s good for. So Scot and Jason pull their tag team bit against her again.
For the immunity challenge, they have to retrieve puzzle pieces on land and then in the water. Tai sits out for Beauty; Joe sits out for Brains. Brains are behind like always, but perhaps they can catch up on the puzzle. Brains wins immunity. Beauty places second.
Then Alecia says she tried. Somehow, her tribe twists this into her being selfish. How do you arrive at that conclusion? This is just a deliberate attempt to pick on her for no reason. Like I said, I’m not thrilled with the options now that Caleb’s gone.
Jason offers to do Tribal Council right away and just get rid of her now, but she does not agree.
