Back over at La Mina, the tribe is falling apart. They can't start or keep a fire going. No food; can't catch fish no matter how long Nick tries. They fuss. They lament. They miss their Super Terry. (There.)
Ah, Immunity is back up for grabs. Neither Terry nor Bruce give any hints about the hidden Idol when Jeff mentions it. The challenge had them hooked in pairs, walking on planks over water, filling buckets, bringing them to a huge bucket filler person while another sat on a balance scale doohickey (technical term). As the bucket-filler person filled the huge bucket, the sitting-on-the-balance-person rose into the air with the object being to raise high enough to spring the tribe flag. Have I confused you yet? If not, I can keep going with the technical terms!
Casaya won, so it will be La Mina at Tribal Council. (We know who's safe, we know!)
Then it starts. Sally knows she's a target for the vote and fairly calmly points out how incredibly she did at the challenge in an attempt to show them she's someone they should want to keep. Both women know it's a Boys Club and, while they don't campaign against each other, they each campaign for themselves. In the end, Super Terry not only has the talisman, he has the power of suggestion. He said that Dan was the only one to shake hands with Ruth Marie and they should keep Sally instead. And, so it went.
At Tribal Council, Sally stayed and Ruth Marie was voted off. Dan? Yep, he kept his word to Ruth Marie and voted for Sally. The vote was 4 to 2. Sally and Ruth Marie voted for each other, very politely.
The tribe has spoken, Ruth Marie. It's time for you to leave.
I've groused in other entries that I was finding this season a bit lackluster. Well, tonight's episode got me in my Survivor fan mode once again. It's about time!
What did you think of the show? Has the season started yet for you?
Please feel free to drop by my television blog for more on this show, other shows and just plain ol' TV talk. Thank you!

i like survivor fever so much,...but i dont like the result which Aras won the price. I tot Terry will be the ultimate survivor. But its okey, for me Terry is the winner.
