Survivor - Tyson Immuned, Brendan voted off

The episode began with the most stupidest Survivor ever, Coach memorizing a monologue about the stupidest attempt of a story ever. He basically claims he was in the Amazon, by Peru, getting stalked by indigenous tribesmen, and then getting clobbered, stabbed, and attacked by them. He claims only three people know this story, but what about the press, that would’ve jumped all over that if it did happen. Peru may be a part of the Amazon, but seriously, if he really did get attacked by any tribesman, he either a) was harassing them or b) on their property. And how the flying heck is someone beaten to death going to have the energy to row away from them, especially if they were tied up. I hope he never told any kid this, that would be blasphemous.

Anyways, the survivors had a reward challenge where they throw balls at other teams crates! It was Debbie, JT, and Brendan who won, winning a white-water rafting trip along with some food. Coach managed to be upset he didn’t win, as if his story wasn’t enough adventure for him, and along with the other seven or eight “life-or-death” situations he says he’s had. Grow up, Coach. So, Stephan was exiled. At Exile Island, Stephen established a life goal: to make fire. Yippee. But seriously, if Janu could do that, so could anyone. At the reward, Debbie was ignored, as all we saw from her was “Look at those brownies!”. Then, Brendan says he wants to work with JT, and take him to the final two. He says by having JT in the final two, he’d lose, but consider himself a winner anyways.

Back at camp, when they return, the epic battle begins: Brendan rallies up Taj, JT, and Sierra, asking them to vote for Coach. Then, JT and Taj look like they are on board with it, and it would’ve given them 100% control of the tribe. At the immunity challenge, the survivors had to make their way along a rope and ladder course. It was between Brendan, Tyson, and JT at the end. However, Tyson won. Back at camp, on I believe Day 24, it was sure Erinn, Debbie, Coach, and Tyson were on board with splitting the vote between Sierra and Brendan. Brendan and Sierra were sure they were going to get Taj, JT, and Stephan to vote for Coach. At tribal council, it was a 2-3-4 vote, with Brendan voted off, becoming the first member of the jury.

This episode gave up my hopes, and probably the hopes of the people. But you know what they say, Failure is a blessing in disguise! This means Brendan failed to get Coach out, but the blessing is Coach being blindsided by an alliance Arranged by Sierra. I’m really optimistic on this, It’s not really true yet, and yes, It’d be so sweet to see Sierra win over Jalapao and Erinn. Erinn is probably in a very good position, OK, she could flip on Tyson/Coach/Debbie because she doesn’t like them. Out of the eight remaining Survivors, only Erinn and Sierra are worthy of being there. JT needs to open his eyes, or the only money he’ll see is that pointless $100,000 rewarded to the pity vote given out at the reunion.
