We are still in the early stages of Survivor
but it's already starting to get interesting. The older men are definitely rocking the house this go round. Bruce
enters his new tribe and becomes both handy and extremely annoying in seconds. He has some sort of water filtration
method that everyone seems to take his word for as being bacteria-free because after all, he's still alive. He thinks
this means he will become the leader of Casaya and he definitely seems to have a calming effect on the tribe because
they can get annoyed at him and cease the endless infighting. Bruce is a great target for Shane because he doesn't
engage in the drama. Meanwhile at La Mina a certain lack of spear leads to unsuccessful fishing. They try and try but
mainly end up with inedible pufferfish. Once again, Terry proves to be the hero, producing a tiny but chubby fish. The reward is for tarps, lanterns, fuel and rope. The challenge involves using a catapult to shoot balls out to where tribemates are waiting on a platform. Both tribes do really well and it comes down to one catch but once again La Mina wins. Casaya has to send someone to Exile Island. It's La Mina's choice and they choose to send Bruce back to Exile Island. He looks shaken but manages to stay upbeat as he leaves.Torrential rains begin and out on Exile Island one very wet Bruce huddles up and tries to stay dry. Over at Casaya everyone seems to be insane without their zen master. Shane is angry, bitter and not helpful. Courtney's New Age attitude has eroded into whining and Cirie can only laugh at the alliance of people who hate each other.
As always happens at the prosperous tribe, life is free and easy at La Mina and it's all massages and strategies. Austin is enjoying being the most wanted man when it comes to alliances and having two attractive women trying to persuade him and Nick to their side.
The immunity challenge involves digging in the sand and fighting for a bag. Cirie proves her worth by being a tough fighter but Missy is pretty tough too. Casaya gets the first point. La Mina wins the second point when Nick pulls away with the bag. Aras gets the bag, passes it to Shane but Austin manages to bring the bag to their side. It's a very rough and physical battle with everyone fighting very intensely. Aras wins and so yet again, there is a tie. It looks like La Mina is going to win as Ruth Marie runs for goal but Bobby comes from behind, grabs her shirt and basically hauls the tiny, wiry woman over to his mat giving the win to Casaya.
Ruth Marie seems to be the obvious target over at La Mina. But Dan and Terry want to take Misty out. Austin and Nick are straddling both alliances as we move to tribal. Misty gets voted out so we definitely know that Austin and Nick weren't persuaded by the massages.
Since Survivor is a sport of sorts it seems to me that we should have a Survivor of the week. This week it has to be Terry. He may not have brought home the big victory for his tribe but he did bring home the little fish. Who's your pick?
