survivor south pacific episode 1

16 new players arrive in samoa they will be joined by two returning players. they are already split into two tribes.

savaii semhar, mark “papa bear”, eleyse, keith, jim, dawn, whitney and john “cocheran”

upolu christine, stacy, mikyala, edna, brandon (russell hants nephew), rick, albert, sophie.

they are joined by coach and ozzy with redemption island back in play. we hear from some of the players and find out cocheran is not only a super fan but has written an essay on the show. the new players arrive first and than are joined by coach and ozzy (before they find out they say hope its not russell which supprises brandon) some of the tribe are excited for ozzy but not for coach. christine makes the mistake of saying they will be tempoary players. cocheran insists on being called that. ozzy joins savaii while coach joins upolu. coach is worried about christine already. the game starts on redemption island arena acctually. the first challenge is ozzy v coach on a puzzle after climbing to the top of a 12 foot pole the puzzle is transfering a pyrmaid puzzle the reweard is tarot (which is the equilivant of potatoes) and flint. ozzy is better on the pole the tribes help with instructions but can’t physically help as ozzy leads but its close to the puzzle. you can only move one at a time and small on top of big only. both tribes help them but ozzy wins the challenge for savaii. and no one is happy with coach on the tribe and don’t help him get his stuff to go to camp or check hes ok except edna. on savaii ozzy knows his experience will help. semhar is a bit weird already doing poetry but ozzy wants to align with her. while the tribe swim cocheran doesn’t want to and feels on the outs. coach is not happy already when they arrive at camp and tries to tell his tribe not to think he is a threat. upolu work well at camp though but only really edna thinks coach could be an asset while christine looks for the idol. coach wants christine out first. we find out jim does maijuna dispensing. papa bear is gay. dawn is worried about the young people as well and not working. brandon shows his tribe one of his tattos while mikayla impresses the tribe with her strength. coach, brandon, albert, sophie and rick form an alliance on the beach at night. dawn is feeling quite down at this point on day 2 and on the outs ozzy chears her up a little bit and keeps her in the game. while cocheran tries to provide for the tribe. brandon wants to do well at the social game and provide food. the first immunity challenge is an obstacle course involving zigzaging path ways and than through a wall and dig up a machete getting coconuts which 3 must launch into their basket first to finish wins immunity as well as a clue to the idol and for upolu flint. it is a very close challenge all the way through but upolu lead a little bit at this point. cocheran had trouble as rick digs up the machete although ozzy makes up time. upolu lead into the shooting it is ozzy, semhar and keith v albert, mikayla (who does well) and brandon. semhar wants to give up on the challenge upolu win just by one coconut. semhar doesn’t help her case saying she feels sort of bad. jim wants semhar gone but ozzy wants cocheran gone. christine looks for the clue but can’t find the idol neither can stacy. semhar and jim get into an argument back at camp which doesn’t help her case. the vote is between semhar and cocheran but not certain which will go. they talk about redemption island at tribal dawn says she lost a lot of confidence. eleyse says semhar is concerned due to the challenge. whitney says its good to have the attention off her. dawn also says cocheran could be a target. in the end semhar is voted out 8-1 over cocheran and is sent to redemption island.

next time coach recurits edna to his alliance brandon is annoyed at mikayla over nothing and an idol is found.

survivor redemption island episode 14 season finale

after tribal at redemption they are supprised to see grant (who is upset at the outcome) andrea is worried about the fact it is 3 strong guys against her in the final duel. at camp things are a little better and they are happy to be still in the game. rob considers getting rid of ashley a bigger priority than the people on redemption except grant. treemail indicates a final duel and they need to dig deep. the last duel is an endurance challenge which is trying to keep a vase intact for the longest last person left wins there way back the rest join the jury. the challenge goes quite a bit before anyone drops out after 20 minutes grant stants to wobble but recovers so does mike. after 40 minutes grant drops out first after an hour the other 3 are still strong andrea stretches it out but recovers but matt is out. leading to mike v andrea showdown both recover once in a difficult battle. and mike loses getting andrea back in the game. andreaas upset win gets her back in the game into the final 5. rob still wants to vote ashley out next. andrea says its odd to be back at camp and doesn’t feel welcome saying the guys are the biggest threats for jury votes. and wants phillip out. phillip reveals the plan to rob that the girls are talking about. the final 5 immunity challenge is racing out to get numbers from a ballance beam and than put them in order first to 100 wins immunity and a spot in the final 4. the ballance beam is tricky but everyone gets it though rob and ashley start well with andrea close and they continue to lead on the second bag. natalie and phillip are behind again but not as far out of it as normal. ashley still leads into the last bag. asley narrowly beats rob to win immunity. andrea says the plan is to vote out rob but needs the girls to do it. ashley wishes it was tomarrows challenge the tribe plans to vote andrea out and he even says it openly. rob doesn’t think he needs to use the idol. ashley is worried about phillip replacing her in the final 3 but natalie reasures her. rob and phillip openly talk in front of andrea about plans so she works on the girls. at tribal phillip continues to annoy people. rob says he asked phillip to keep an eye out of things. andrea says its tempting to take out rob. rob makes the case to take out andrea. in the end rob plays his idol negating andreas vote and sending her to the jury 4-0. the final immunity challenge is a big maze getting four bags of puzzle pieces and than solve a word phrase. the maze is quite complicated. natalie and phillip are again not doing much (but phillip is better than usual). phillip starts ok but rob and ashley are slightly ahead. rob tries to lose ashley but doesn’t work and they are neck and neck as phillip is lost. its close between rob and ashley all the challenge as natalie is out of it. it comes down to the word phrase. natalie only has one bag at this point. the phrase is quite tricky though the phrse is “only you are safe” and rob barely beats ashley and moves into the final 3. the vote is between ashley and phillip rob tells them both they are safe. rob decides to vote out ashley because of friends on the jury. natalie conisders a tie but it will be risky. ashley feels it was a bummer to lose the challenge. natalie hopes rob stays loyal. in the end ashley is voted out 3-1 over phillip. on day 39 they are releaved to be at the end. natalie is quite happy at 19 to be at the end. rob gives pointers to natalie for the jury questioning but they are really just how he wants her to think. phillip burns his famous shorts before the final tribal. in opening speeches natalie says she played the best game she could and her social skills. phillip says his strategy didn’t work his original one but he had to rethink. rob says he was lucky to be on omtepe at the start but said he did the best he could. the jury starts with andrea who says phillip is weird and his different personalitties and doesn’t answer the question. she says natalies relation with rob and says it was not about friendships and makes a mistake. ashley doesn’t want to hear from phillip but he won’t be quiet she thanks him though for teaching her how to be patient she asks natalie about the blindside she says it was a bigger threa she doesn’t know about rob or wants to do. grant asks natalie about the blindside of him rob says she always asked what to do. ralph says natalie doesn’t do anything on her own. matt says rob is a liar and where he draws the line. julie says they shouldn’t be proud esepcilaly natalie. mike says he enjoyed the experience but doesn’t have much of a question. steve says natalie did well for her age. david gives a weird speech in favour of rob to the jury saying that the others don’t deserve it and says he controlled the game. the jury votes ralph votes for phillip but everyone else votes for rob giving him the million 8-1-0. next up the reunion where rob is congruatlated for winning on his fourth attempt his goal was for everoyne to play with him he mentions kristina finding an idol without a clue early turned the tempo up. the girls say that they knew they couldn’t get rid of rob because of the idol. andrea says she learned that you have to check with everyone. natalie defends her strategy and julie has regrets for her comments. we find out that rob and grants friendship is over at this point. matt talks about his faith. andrea says there is no love interest between her and matt. russell congratulates rob for his game he is asked about throwing the challenge which he doesn’t think is fair and says there is a worry russell says they should keep his number. we hear more about phillips story and from a lady friend of his its not clear if he is an agent. the fanfavourite award is between rob and matt and rob wins 40-36 percent. we also have a wedding proposal from david to carolina (from survivor tocantins) which she says yes. they than preview survivor south pacific which will feature

(leaving mike the last zapatera left). rob is getting worried about redemption island effecting things. the food is running low leading to an argument lead by phillip while rob and grant want ashley out. phillip says the girls don’t need to eat which is not true and leads to a big fight. rob has to defend phillips strategy and to vote out ashley. ashley is worried about how close natalie and rob are but wants to blindside grant but rob is opposed. treemail is confusing. the challenge is for immunity and reward of using fish hooks to grab puzzle pieces and than solve a fish skelton puzzle. the reward is room service. grant starts well while natalie struggles. rob is supprisingly behind phillip takes the lead briefly as natalie is last as ashley has trouble. but ashley makes up time quickly as the order except natalie in last keeps changing. ashley takes the lead just ahead of grant and phillip. natalie is miles behind as rob finishes the second section. ashley has a good lead as natalie stops trying. in the end aslhey wins immunity and reward just ahead of rob. ashley shares the reward with natalie. rob is disappointed ashley won so the plan is grant. they agree for grant to vote natalie as a threat due to her closeness to ashley. at tribal ashley is quite happy to have immunity and she is proud to have it. rob knows he is vulnerable but knows grant is a bigger threat. they discuss the closeness of them. natalie is worried as a result. rob says his family is his reason for playing. in the end grant is blindsided 4-1 over natalie sent to redemption.

next time finale time someone returns from redemption is rob stoppable can ashleys run continue of immunities and what about matts fairytale run on redemption or mikes.

Phillip continues to annoy everyone with his views. the whole tribe gets to see the duel between mike, matt and david. the duel is stacking wooden tiles first two to reach 8 feet stay in the game the one who doesn’t is on the jury. early on mike starts well with david in last at this point. mike wins the duel despite late difficuilites as matt and david close in. matt beats david to send david to the jury he is disappointed to be out of the game. rob says the goal is to beat matt. matt says he still has hope and wants revenge on rob. rob and grant start singing a song called rice wars which provokes phillip combined with maggots in the rice to get them into the thing but dumps it first. desptte andrea being a diplomat its phillip who makes the situation worse and leads to a heated argument with steve which doesn’t do anything for anyone. the whole situation is out of control and even a little racist but phillip is using negative sterotypes about it in a bad way this only gets worse and worse and i don’t believe he has never been to jail. steve gets people to consider voting phillip. rob is getting worried it will start to get his tribe involved and it makes him uncomfortable. the immunity challenge is building a puzzle wheel and than solve two puzzles to win immunity while avoiding being dizzy. rob, julie, ralph have it phillips wrong andrea moves on as is steve and grant. steve starts well so does andrea and ralph and grant and rob (everyones in it but julie). rob narrowly beats steve to win immunity. there is hope from zapaterra that phillip will go with them thinking they’ll vote for steve. julie decides to hide phillips pants. ashley says everyone is over phillip. steve hopes phillip will apologise but it won’t happen. rob is greatful to have the power he has. at tribal phillip reveals someone stole his clothes and accusses steve (which is wrong). andrea says its not good. steve reveals the racism argument with julie as well contributing to the conversation saying phillip brought up a lot of bad words. we find out some gridiron history about steve being on a mostly black team and he has no racism in his heart. natalie feels for both sides. julie admits to taking the shorts but gets a bigger supprise when she is voted out 6-3 over phillip on tribal lines.

hotel review the york sydney

i recently stayed at the york hotel in sydney. the room is quite big and has a lot of features including wifi and a bath both of which are good. the pool and spa are good the pool is cold at this time of the year. the reception staff are good. there isn’t really a resturant in the premersis thats obvious but its close to several food outlets. overall a pretty good hotel 8.5/10

Review sporting globe sudney dinner

Today I’m writing of a pub that I had dinner at. The place is quite interesting with a tv at each booth although the channels are limited. It can get quite noisy. Now to the important bit the food the parmi was a bit spicy but still tasted good the chips where quite nice. It is an interesting place to go and on the waterfront can be quite beautiful but not good if you don’t like spicy food 7/10

7 teams depart hanoi for maun botswana by plane but to get into a travel agency need to figure out that its botswana and sign up for charter flights once there to a national park. pam/winnie think it would be stupid to take it out personally the u-turn max/katie think its smart to check ahead where to go. mona/beth are excited that there are 3 all girl teams left. caroline/jennifer stupidly think the best final 3 is them against bates/anthony and max/katie. the first flight is 1045am so they are all equal. max/katie give the answer to caroline/jennifer but all the teams are on the same flight. chuck gusses so many wrong countries kenya, australia, germany, bangledesh, paraguay (all wrong). the u-turn ends up being the conversation of discussion. in botswana the first charter flight is caroline/jennifer and bates/anthony at 9am. max/katie and joey/meaghen are 915am. the other teams are 930am (which has chuck/wynona worried). joey is a bit scared about being in a small plane max/katie aren’t happy to be on the plane with them. the first flight lands and the next clue sends them down a road to search for their next clue which is the roadblock of searching for a scorpion diging to get their clue. caroline takes the roadblock as does bates. joey and max do the roadblock. bates takes the lead after the task they than take their bushman for a drive down a road as the next clue. wynona has to do it to even the roadblocks. mona/beth are suddenly ahead of the 2nd flight teams can’t tell who did it same with pam/winnie. the detour is “fire” requires teams to start fire with two sticks and manure “fowl” requires teams to set a trap to catch an animal. bates/anthony choose fire as does caroline/jennifer. bates/anthony are quite good at fire max/katie and mona/beth both pick fire. as the last two teams are still doing the scorpion task but the girls are ahead of chuck/wynona but not by much. bates/anthony are first to the pitstop which is a nearby safari camp. all the other teams can’t do the fire easily (including joey/meaghen). bates/anthonys prize is a trip to phuket thailand. the fire task is almost impossible for everyone else. pam/winnie choose fowl (good move) as does chuck/wynona. all the other teams eventually switch detours due to the fire task difficulty. max/katie are last to switch putting them behind. pam/winnie are 2nd to finish the detour. navigating is quite tricky to find the fowl detour. chuck/wynona are 3rd which is amazing for them (having should have been eliminated 3 legs in a row before). joey/meaghen are 4th to get the pitstop clue just ahead of caroline/jennifer. mona/beth are 6th to get the pitstop clue but are lost a bit but still beat max/katie to the pitstop but its a non-elim leg so (they will need to complete a speed bump next leg)

survivor redemption island episode 3

on redemption island franchesca is shocked to see matt as she didn’t expect any of robs allies so soon matt doesn’t know what happened and is quite upset. on omtepe rob and grant are quite happy at what happened and with every thing going right and tells phillip the main alliance. rob knows he needs to work to keep andrea on side. on redemption island treemail indicates the first duel and indicates the loser is out treemail for the tribes sends two people of each tribe to watch the duel david and steve are going for zapaterra to watch but david is glad that russell and his alliance didn’t go going for omtepe ashley and andrea. the duel ironically enough is a doover of the outcast challenge from pearl islands but individual. matt knows its do or die time franchesca wants to win. using a pole to grab keys is the challenge once you get 3 you unlock it you win. making the pole isn’t easy franchesca makes it first and gets the key the first one. matt fails the first time franchesca gets the 2nd one before matt gets one. matt is still sturggling as franchesca goes for the last key but its further out but her stick breaks as matt gets his first and gets his second closing in as they only need one more key and is close as matt struggles but is close as franchesca gets the key but drops it and matt gets the third key to win from behind sending franchesca home. franchesca is now out of the game completly as matt heads back to redemption island and is quite emotional. jeff tells the players about what they share. andrea tells omtepe that matt is upset about what happened. rob is worried about matt winning more duels so he works on keeping andrea loyal andrea is worried though. on zapaterra they lie about who won which is a bit over the top but they clarify it to the majority alliance. russell is worried about the numbers against him and his alliance but as the idol was found by ralph so theres no chance of him finding it so russell makes a fake idol and decides to have stephenie carry her bag to make them think it. steve is worried that russell has the idol and has him considering a big move. mike ralph and steve discuss throwing the challenge which is not a wise move in this season as against rob they would be worried. david is skecptical of the plan and julie is against the plan completly and thinks she can handle him. the challenge was seen last season three tribe members spin a wheel to spit water into a tube the difference this time is it gets a ball for a slide puzzle which they must solve the reward is a tarp and also immunity and comfort. david sticks with the throw the challenge zapatera sit out ralph and sarita. its david v rob on the puzzle as the tribes do well with the water. it is close on the water despite julie throwing it putting zapatera behind with steve wearing out. rob has a big lead on the puzzle. they finally get the ball but david is really slow when he would have probablly won if he wanted to. omtepe win easily on the puzzle as davids throwing the challenge. zapatera are sent to tribal . omtepe are estatic about winning but rob are worried about the idol and looks for the clue which is in the chair phillips sitting on and rob finds the clue. the idol is not obvious in the clue. on zapaterra russell is annoyed at his tribe throwing the challenge and has a good point about the fact that the numbers will hurt them later. the plan is to split the vote 3-3 between russell and stephenie. russells alliance is annoyed about the challenge they decide to get julie to flip. stephenie works on julie and julie says her chances are better with russell but doesn’t think its a good move. russell tries to confirm that plan. at tribal ralph says its good to be at tribal which makes no sense at all as the tribe is divided. steve says that it is 6-3 at this point and sarita blames russell for the division. russell says everyone preceives his legacy hurts him and tells them that the tribe did throw the challenge. some of the majority deny it falsely mike says they need to trim the flat. julie says it was a bad move as numbers matter. stephenie says the majority forget they are playing survivor and there will be backstabbing it leads to a fight with david. it was a critical challenge to lose at this point. steve says they did not throw the challenge (which is a lie) david says rob beat him at the puzzle which was not clear. the vote is a 3-3-3 tie between russell stephenie and ralph. the revote sends russell home for the first time ever (well at least to redemption island) 5-1-0.

jury and his strategy was to be himself. sash says he is proud of how he played the game and played differently to them and says it comes down to strategy. and he says his friendships where more important than the alliances. brenda goes first and says she enjoyed playing with sash but says being a backstabber could be a problem with the jury but says it was part of strategy she says to chase about the emotional attachment and says it was supprising the blindside but he admited to loyality and revealing what happened. brenda tells sash that he could have given the idol. marty says there are good reasons for the final 3 to be there he asks chase who is the dumbest person he can pick anyone in the room other than marty (which is not that fair as he is the answer is chases opinion) sash is said as a smart player he says fabio has grown the most. holly asks chase the best strategical move on his own. he says it was voting out shannon as it was about trust. she asks fabio about his immunity wins where too litttle to late fabio thinks it wasn’t. sash says he lied to her last night by voting for each other. jane asks sash first and calls him a river rat and other things that aren’t fair (fabio laughs). chase was called for being fun chase wants to use the money for hunt the cure for cancer and care for his mum fabio wants to take care of his mum and dad. benry congratulates them and has no question for chase and congrats fabio on his immunity wins, sash says to a question about trying to take him out. dan tells sash that he is a liar and a phony, he calls chase paranoid and he owns up to it but it doesn’t help the situation. kelly says they stuck in when she couldn’t she asks sash about outwiting everyone he admits it was making many alliances and hurt many people (kelly wasn’t expecting the answer). naonka says she was close to them it was a pleasure fabio says family matters the most. alina says fabio is the surfer dude but doesn’t want to give a million dollars she asks sash to explain his strategy or why to vote. sash says he wasn’t in on everyvote and calls chase wishywashy. alina is supprised by chases strategy but he claims about playing with people he trust and it did hurt him the game after an argument between fabio and chase. the jury votes. marty votes for fabio to win alina supprisingly votes for chase (considering she is the only one not close to him to vote for him). in the end sash gets no votes in a close battle fabio gets (marty, naonka, kelly benry and dans votes) to win over chase who gets (brenda, alina, holly and janes) votes in a controversal win due to the quitters making the difference in the end. chase is stunned when he is ahead in the count but isn’t supprised to fall short. fabio is the youngest win at the time. at the reunion a lot of people are happy at fabios victory. fabio says the name stuck (he was jud before the show) they ask about him being a goofball he says his family is quite artistic he is a model outside of the show. chase was asked about his strategy of being wishy/washy which is not the best way and they ask about the attraction with brenda but they are just good friends. sash is asked about the fact his game crumbled when he lost brenda, naonka and kelly. he heard that brenda told naonka a big plan to take out sash eventually she knew she wouldn’t get the idol she didn’t want to scramble either because of the trust. jeff apologies to sash who he thought would be the first out not a finalist. chase’s dream appartently is to go play music in nashvile and than sings a song at the reunion show. we talk to jimmy j is asked about how tough it is and he says the conditions where the problems and said they held up better at 67 (3rd oldest player in the shows history i think) he is a big fan of the show and really wanted to do it and survivor saved his life during the physicals due to blocked artiries but got it fixed and enjoyed the experience we also hear from a famous gridiron (american football) person terry bradshaw. we also hear from holly about dans shoes which she burried because of jealously she presents dan new shoes as an apology. dan talks a lot about his money but says he is ok. jane is called one of the most popular this season and is stunned at how fit she is at her age and admited to learning fire because of what jeff said they also ask about the amnosity with marty she said it was because of the fluff off due to over playing early. they aren’t friends now. they talk to naonka as the seasons villian she wasn’t sure how she’d act as her strategy made her look a villian she admited she thought it was because of the leg incident due to the fact that she was just another competitor kelly b says it was fair. naonka says her job security was threatened but it’s a reality show and nothing to do with her real life she said she had enough is why she quit. naonkas mum is not supprised at her daughters effort and encouraged her to play like that a bit. in the future jury people can be removed if they quit in the jury phase. the fanfavourite award by the biggest margin and most votes jane wins it. shannon won’t apologise for his comments about sash. wendy says her husband was stunned the reason she was first off. jimmy t explains his experience in a weird way. alina loved being in the game. we find out that boston rob and amber have had a 2nd baby (which is barely relevant to the show). the next season is redemption island which is a chance to comeback after being voted out without much of a preview though. they use cirie and rupert as examples (who are in the audience) of how it works.

the affs new broacast deal is not good for the game as it has a lot more thursday night games and no saturday free to air games as they focus on foxtel. more ana flights to sydney which is good but with the border mostly shut not sure if it will be profortable. indistury leaders supporting alan joyce is the wrong thing as his job has not been tenable for over a decade now due to mistreatment of workers and the way he has treated costumers recently. rex has been crowned airline of the year in australia. fuel retailers shouldn’t raise prices too much and are being watched there prices. the idea of banning phones at school for students is a great idea as they are a big distraction and can lead to a lot of bullying if not policed. the aviation watchdog should be more concerned about qantas on safety. i think any bussiness that have mistreated workers pre-pandemic should not be allowed to be part of a classaction against the lockdowns that tried to keep us safe.

amputation. marty says he is happy with the team he thinks he recognises jimmy johnson a former nfl coach. the challenge is looking for the medalion of power the person who claims it gets it for their tribe. they start running immediately and looking in the end brenda finds it after spotting it quickly with janes help she gets it. alina notices kelly b has an amputated leg. marty is happy about the medalion of power being on his tribe or so he thinks as they don’t know yet the tribes are split by age which is done immediately although appartenly no one is between 30 and 40. jimmy j is not happy to be on the older tribe one of the oldest ever to play survivor. brenda is given a choice of what to do with the medalion she can keep it or get fire in the form of flint and fishing gear they give up the medalion despite naonka wanting to keep it yve makes fun of their age. brenda gives the medalion to marty. the tribes head out shannon thinks the older people need it more and is arrogant. espada the older tribe are mostly happy to have jimmy j on their tribe some of the tribe are supprised at that including dan.wendy and holly already form an alliance on hollys idea saying she trusted her right away. wendy though talks too much already why her husbands thinks she’ll go first she says is from montant but marty thinks she’s weird. jane gets fire started quickly with glasses following instructions from a book jeff the host wrote she is a recent widow as her husband died not long ago. marty is amazed they got it started so quickly (within 30 mintues) the young tribe are excited sash thinks they will dominate the game because being young. fabio is also excited about being on the young tribe and gets the name fabio (he was jud) and is the first dumb blonde shannon has encountered. shannon and chase form an alliance early in terms of strength they are good saying the alpha males will be targeted takes the meet shield strategy already which we see later series shannon wants a man to win. kelly b is worried that people when they find out about her being an amputee but wants to prove she is physically capable and some of the tribe aren’t supprised about the knee. shannon feels like she’d get the sympathy vote (refering to kelly b) but wants to target her. naonka is already being mean about it. the first night sees espada excited about the fire while jimmy j is already sick

him. on la flor brenda and chase bond with brenda saying she knew jimmy j because she was a former cheerleader. but chase is worried about being in 2 alliances and is now in the middle. brenda says she is used to people coming to her without doing anything. alina and kelly b find a cryptic clue to the idol which makes no sense as they are harder to figure out this season. alina is not happy to find the clue with kelly b. treemail indicates the first challenge is confusing. jimmy j know he needs to improve and says he doesn’t think he’d win a million dollars but would like some person to win from their tribe which excites them. at the challenge they explain he goes by fabio and kelly s goes by purple kelly. tyronue says they can’t take it easier on people. the first part is porurring water and than angle it to get puzzle pieces and than solve a puzzle tribe who finishes first wins immunity. the older tribe doesn’t use the madilion of power despite it giving them a bucket lead. the pouring part isn’t too hard but the younger tribe starts bette but the older tribe keeps pace between holly and naonka on the pouring the younger tribe gets the pieces first but not much difference its the woman on the puzzle for both tribes it is close going into the puzzle. the young tribe gets off to a quick start and wins convicingly despite an early mistake sending the older tribe (espada) to tribal. brenda says she would have used the medalion of power. preparing for tribal the older tribe aren’t happy to lose jimmy t is not that happy. jimmy t wants to vote jimmy j and doesn’t want to be ignored and he needs to calm down (his words not mine). jimmy j says its him or wendy as the weakest. holly is worried about the delima about who to vote. wendy is nervous and concerned that she will go which is true. they discuss keeping the tribe strong as important. marty does not like jimmy j. at tribal they ask about first impressions jane thinks she is a hillybilly but jill says she is a mygver and good. jimmy t says the first moments where important for impressions. jimmy j says people could be annoyed at him as leader but could be a help. marty says people got to be careful about being preceived as a leader. more than half the tribe are concerned about going home. holly is worried about the alliance. wendy thinks the lack of connection with the tribe was the cause. yve says she never asks a woman an age nor does tyronue desipte wendy thinking that. before the vote wendy gives a speech that doesn’t help her chances and is voted out 9-1 over yve (weird throw away vote)?.

next time holly wants to quit shannon goes way too far and brenda a big threat.

amazing race season 20 episode 11 finale

the final 4 teams depart india for hiroshima japan on the same flight and than by boat to minsaina island. the best flight arrives 810pm the next day. vanessas injury is still bad. teams first take a bus to the city and brendon/rachel fall slightly behind as a result of mising the first bus and the usual people make fun of them in a bit o f a rude way. mising the bus leads to an issue between brendon/rachel. the next sotp is the train station and end up with brendon/rachel catching up slightly with a 10pm train carrying all the teams except rachel/dave who end up on the 1020pm train this nearly makes a key difference as they miss the last ferry of the night to the island but the first ferry in the morning still makes the clue opening hours despite leaving 8 hours behind so there is no advantage in fact the clue won’t be till the morning sunrise. that morning the clue asks them to pay their respects to the victims of world war 2s attack on the area at the memorial park before taking the train to osaka and a tv studio on the same train at the tv 8 studio. rachel/dave and brendon/rachel take the subway while the other teams take a taxi. it is confusing to find art/jj are in the lead with a japanese game show roadblock of having to run on a moving sidewalk and jump and grab 3 chickens and than jump in a crazy way. Art takes the roadblock and fails the first attempt only getting 1 chicken and falls off many times the course while getting the 2nd but gets the third before any team shows up but can’t do the jump. vanessa/ralph are having trouble with cabs. teams are pretty lost at this point. art gets it still way ahead sending them to the umeda sky building and where the detour clue is. vanessa has to do the roadblock despite her injury due to having to go into the final leg even brendon has to do it for the same reason. rachel (of rachel/dave takes the roadblock). vanessa’s injury doesn’t help her with the task with brendon gets 2 chickens quickly but no one is doing well at the task rachel gets 1 before vanessa but brendon gets 3 quickly rachel gets 2 before vanessa has any. brendon/rachel get the clue 2nd but rachel/dave aren’t far behind with vanessa/ralph a long way back even though vanessa has 1. vanessa’s injury makes ralph consider taking the penalty but she won’t give up and gets the 2nd chicken despite the pain and gets it but still hasn’t jumped. meanwhile the other teams find the clue at the observatory which is the detour of “bingo shout out” pick up sushi and put it on a bingo card and once they have them in order they must eat it all to receive their clue. “photo cut out” requires getting locals to pose for a photo after 10 they get a clue. art/jj take the sushi. rachel/dave are a little lost as are brendon/rachel don’t realise its one floor down. vanessa is still in pain but narrowly fails but than gets it. rachel/dave take the photo task. brendon/rachel do the sushi although rachel/daves bag is left open causing problems leading to a big fight. vanessa/ralph catch up as teams struggle to get cabs vanessa/ralph take the sushi. it is noisy the sushi resturant which makes it hard its confusing some of the words at the task. rachel/dave do the photos but its not easy to get people into it. art/jj are well ahead on the sushi compared to brendon/rachel who just starting while vanessa/ralph are lost. rachel/dave are getting the photo done quicker. rachel/dave finish the detour in 1st sending them to the pitstop osaka castle with a good lead. art/jj finish the detour in 2nd place. rachel is getting stressed at the sushi allowing vanessa/ralph to catch up. rachel/dave win their record equaling 7th first place (only the third team to do it in a season only one more team has done it since) there prize is a trip to new zelland. art/jj are a little more confused at the castle. brendon/rachel finish the detour in 3rd ahead of vanessa/ralph. art/jj are a little lost at the castle finding the pitstop. vanessa/ralph finish the detour before anyone else gets to the pitstop causing a closer race for last. the other two teams are close to each other a bit lost as vanessa/ralph arrive at the castle but its too late for vanessa/ralph who are eliminated.

confident russell is going home and the heroes are not realising candice has flipped. candice tells russell he is the target. candice says she thinks that amanda thinks she is safe (well she has never been voted out in either of her seasons and played an idol the only time that could have happened). russell confronts sandra about the plan but she is not scared. sandra is worried about the change of plans and tells rupert that candice has flipped and they are worried now that the plan is done they switch the target to parvati as a fail safe. they are slightly wrong switching the target to parvti on the logic. sandra and candice discuss whiat to do and agree on a plan which where not sure what sandra can’t get peace it looks like they will vote amanda. rupert says they have been talking about who will flip and it wouldn’t improve their spot sandra says its a crazy idea to flip but they have talked to her and she knows she is on the outs. amanda says the idea is to offer a better deal danielle and russell disagree saying its a better deal and she is not a threat for challenges. russell says they all play differently the villians but doesn’t include what sandra brings. rupert says he wished he knew already there’s already cracks. russell says about danielle is fighting to make it further in the game. colby says the concensus is danielle has it at least according to the heroes which has parvati worried. russell is also worried about not having an idol. in the end russell wastes his idol as he got no votes and candice and sandra vote with the villans to send amanda home for the first time ever 6-3 over parvati ending 108 days of survivor for amanda without being voted out.

place in their argument and is overconfident coach still thinks courtney. coach knows he is in the middle and is being torn each way and which way. coach is torn completly with jerri the swing vote as well. rob appeals to jerri about voting out russell but she isn’t sure about the situation. coach and jerri talk about the vote and they know how hard the decision is. at tribal sandra is asked about why the vote is different she says the vote is all over the board. coach says the tribe is more divided than ever and explains the divide he says tyson bridged the gap but russell and danielle disagree. danielle says people can have different opinions even on the same tribe. rob says the tribe is not unified russell says he had to make the move for his alliance parvati says people are angry. coach says that alliances will tear the tribe apart rob says about that. russell says voting him wasn’t keeping the tribe strong either. rob and russell have an argument at tribal about
