Last time Spencer’s idol clue had everybody seeking.
Luckily Spencer found it, but of this he’s not speaking.
With worry of an idol, it was Morgan who they voted.
Didn’t do enough. The group of 6 said she freeloaded.
Upon return from tribal Tony lets his anger show.
Why have they tried to vote him out two times in a row?
He thinks the 3 left standing should have lobbied for their places.
They figured for a flip, voting Tony would be the basis.
Tony knows that it’s 6 on 3, but it’s never that easy.
The 3 could all be sitting ducks, but Tony might get sleazy.
In waiting for a final 6, that chance may never come.
Allies won’t get this chance either - his prophecy for some.
Trish and LJ worry about Tony’s late night rant.
His brain is going all the time. Did he sleep? Said he can’t.
He wants LJ gone but doesn’t want to be the bad guy.
He’ll get LJ to go back on his word and then he’ll fry.
Tony tells LJ Woo has found the idol - so he thinks.
He’s leading the horse to water, trying to make him drink.
LJ appeases Tony, saying promises may break.
It’s just what Tony needs to hear to burn him at the stake.
This story about idol worry isn’t even true.
He’s using lies to trap LJ into blindsiding Woo.
He plans to tell the others LJ is sneaky and quiet.
He’s scarier than Tony. Now to get his team buy it.
“Don’t sandbag this one.
Win a revitalizing sensation.
Bounce back into competing shape
with nourishment and rejuvenation.” - Tree Mail
For reward they’re divided into three teams of three.
First throw a rope right through a ring and sandbags are released.
Then throw them through a tunnel, try to get them to the end.
And work the rest through with your hands if throwing didn’t send.
Then bounce them off a trampoline into 5 distant goals.
First team to finish wins reward to counter the game’s tolls.
A spa day: shower, shampoo, soap. Massage to ease your pains.
Then food and drinks. Rejuvenate for the last 16 days.
Team 1: Jefra, Trish and LJ. Team 2: Woo, Tasha, Kass.
Last: Jeremiah, Spencer and Tony - who wants this bad.
Tony’s team starts out with the lead. Sandbags on 2nd toss.
Then LJ scores and Woo is next. Nobody has yet lost.
Jeremiah’s tunnel throwing skills keep them ahead.
LJ’s done next and Woo’s still last. But there’s still not much spread.
Spencer’s team finishes moving sandbags through the tunnel.
The other teams have difficulty with this net non-funnel.
Tony bounces sandbags first and lands 3 goals real quick.
Jefra and Woo start bouncing next and hope their throws will stick.
A second round of caroms leads Tony to last his last.
The other teams just couldn’t beat him landing them so fast.
Tony knows winning rewards can be crucial in this game.
If he sees opportunity, he knows it’s his to claim.
Jefra really wanted this. The “funk” is setting in.
Woo snapped back to reality. He, too, wanted to win.
LJ tells Trish and Jefra of Tony’s anxiousness.
All 3 agree that sticking with their 6 is for the best.
Oust the Aparri 3, not let them in alliance cracks.
Trish says she’ll talk to Tony and tell him he should relax.
LJ’s plan for the future relies on patience, not fear.
Trish says the best final three is the three sitting here.
But Tony might form bonds on this reward and strategize.
He’s glad he’s going to the spa to talk to those two guys.
Spencer knows that reward is a way to better himself.
He’s had odds stacked against him, but he’s not yet on the shelf.
Tony asks if they’d like to talk while Jeremiah showers.
Will they be picked off one-by-one or be granted some powers?
So Jeremiah asks if Tony’s feeling comfortable.
Tony replies “Never, my friend”. There is always trouble.
You just have to hang in there. I’ll definitely approach you.
“Will that happen while we’re still here?” - Tony says “I think so”.
Tony’s looking for a vote to get him to the top.
He’ll go back to his alliance after LJ’s stopped.
Tony tells them that they’ll be safe at the next tribal council.
They tell him that they trust him, but they doubt if he is truthful.
Spencer knows that he and Jeremiah are just pawns.
And if Tony uses them it helps them to move on.
If Spencer can be brought a little further down the road.
He’ll look for detours to advance while he is being towed.
It doesn’t take a CPA for 6 versus 3 math.
So Tasha queries LJ if he’ll talk of a new path.
He’ll listen. She asks him to meet her discretely elsewhere.
He stands her up. More paranoia from Tony - he can’t bear.
“Purple, Blue, Yellow, and Red,
Like sunsets, the colors are vivid.
Black and blues could bruise your ego…
and being voted out could make you livid.” - Tree Mail
For Tony this immunity challenge is gonna be huge.
LJ is clever but who’ll throw the first punch in this feud.
But LJ shared an idol. Thinks he’s with Tony to the end.
Maybe as things evolve the relationship will mend.
For immunity, memorize series of colored tiles.
Repeat them back and get it right. Last one will be all smiles.
Round 1: Yellow, Blue, Red, Green. Trish and Woo drop out early.
After 25 days in this game your brain gets squirrely.
For the next round it’s Red, Green, Purple, Black, Blue, Green and Blue.
Jeff notes the difficulty of something from grade school.
All left get the first 5 right. The sixth one yields 3 choices.
LJ, Tasha and Tony - the only correct voices.
For the last color each one chooses colors that don’t match.
But one is right so there will be a winner in this batch.
It isn’t yellow. Tony’s done. It’s Tasha or it’s LJ.
They both are very confident and figure this is their day.
LJ remembered red, but it was blue. Tasha’s triumphant!
And as she dons the necklace, in her eyes a prideful glint.
LJ says all they have to do is split the vote 3-3.
With this plan Jeremiah or Spencer will feel defeat.
LJ feels comfortable in this game for the first time.
Boys vote for Spencer, girls for Jeremiah. It’ll be fine.
But Tony’s still preparing plans to turn on LJ tonight.
Tells Woo LJ might blindside him. Woo trusts, to his delight.
Tony talks to Spencer. Tells him about LJ and Woo.
“You are 100% safe.” Spencer just hopes it’s true.
Spencer will get Jeremiah and Tasha on board.
Thanks in part to the reward challenge, these three may have scored.
Tony asks Trish what LJ said during the reward.
Trish tells the truth but Tony spreads his lie to cause discord.
Trish can’t quite believe that LJ would lie to her face.
Tony posits LJ doesn’t want to be 4th place.
When it gets down to 5 he knows it will be 3 on 2.
With LJ and Jefra beneath the Tony, Trish and Woo.
Trish asks if he’s proposing to get rid of LJ soon.
At first he sidesteps the question so not be a buffoon.
But then he says their 3 could vote with Tasha, Spence and Jer.
Trish still thinks that the 6 is better intact and fair.
Later Kass asks if everyone is still good with the six.
Trish tells her Tony’s waivering but it’d be dumb to flip.
Tony’s closest ally, Trish, could turn her back on him.
The plan could blow up in his face and he might never win.
He’d rather make a power move, but now he must decide.
To kick butt or to kiss butt. Might have to swallow his pride.
At tribal, Jeff is not surprised that Tasha is relieved.
And Tony thinks all expect to be backstabbed and deceived.
He brought his “bag of tricks” so that he’ll be more confident.
Jeff wonders if just saying that could signal detriment.
Jeff asks if LJ was approached. LJ said someone tried,
but says it would not pay to betray whom he’s allied.
Perpetuating lies, Tony still says he’s in construction.
But Sarah looks perturbed. This could cause jury-vote destruction?
LJ and Tony both say loyalty is huge at work.
Kass checked her life back at the door, knowing this game makes jerks.
Are you player, person, or both? Can be hard to reconcile.
Spencer reminds, one of six is bottom of the pile.
Trish admits something has to break - it could happen tonight.
But she’d be unaware of such a show of voting might.
With that they vote, and Spencer’s voting LJ - hopes for blindside.
Could be a crazy night that may sustain this wild ride.
No idol played. 3 LJ’s, then 3 Jeremiah’s follow.
Then “Spence” and another LJ, which makes him stiffly swallow.
LJ the 9th one voted out and 3rd one on the jury.
We see joy and bewilderment. But will we soon see fury?
Spencer gives a fist pump. Jefra asks if Tony flipped.
He won’t respond. Jefra says “Wow”. Wonder if she’ll be ripped.
Jeff says vote and reactions proof of individual game.
Based on what we saw tonight it will never be the same.
Next time Tony will stop at nothing. On Trish/Jefra he spies.
Jefra wants to not be fooled by more of Tony’s lies.
And Woo climbs trees for coconuts but when he’s 10 feet up,
loses his grip and falls straight down. He might land on his butt.
