Where Are The 'Dancing With The Stars' Winners Now?
Survivor: Panama: Episode 5
The starvation ends! The Survivor powers-that-be must have
decided our tribes are looking too scrawny because they are finally play for food and both teams get a little something
to take home. Instead of singing for their supper, the tribes have to toss their food to each other and chop up fish.
Bruce can't hack through a large fish and slows down the team. On the next catch he drops the fish giving La Mina a one
fish lead. But Sally can't catch a fish which gives Casaya the lead and they win reward. La Mina chooses to take beans
as their food (I'd hate to be around that camp the first night) and Terry gets sent to Exile Island again. So far
the Exile Island idea doesn't really seem to be much of a game changer. While he's on Exile Island Terry frets that his
tribe isn't taking good care of themselves. He seems to think that he is the father of a set of helpless children who
can't survive without daddy. On the list of Survivor sins, overestimating your own importance ranks pretty high but he
hasn't had a chance to learn that yet.After the challenge, Casaya finds their camp flooded. They've got the food but no way to cook it so it's sashimi
time. Of course even good fortune doesn't end the ceaseless infighting. Rewards of alcohol always bring trouble because
someone is bound to take more than their share. This time Bobby drinks the last bottle of wine with Bruce which drives
Courtney nuts. Bobby is his usual surly self basically challenging anyone around to dislike him. Meanwhile over at La
Mina, those beans were a bad idea felling Nick and Austin.
Once again the challenge involves puzzles and
diving. La Mina takes a strong lead but nearly screws it up at the last moment with the help of the lovely but klutzy
Sally the Spear Loser. I was worried that Cirie would be the immediate target at Casa Dysfunction, but everyone wants
Bobby gone except for Aras who angles for Bruce. They agree on Bruce and Shane tells Bobby what's going on. Shane
begins swearing on his child again to create an alliance with Bobby. Bruce, not knowing he is target for eviction, gets
pissy because Courtney is doing yoga in his rock garden. A ladies alliance seems about to rise. Danielle brings Shane
into the girly colloquy but since he swore on his kid now he's in a jam.
At tribal, Jeff talks about the
wine. Bobby still refuses to apologize for drinking the wine. He only apologizes for how people feel about it which is
of course no apology at all. Aras leaps to his defense and attacks Bruce who is just a tiny bit more apologetic. Still
he seems to be morphing from strong zen master into cranky old man with every week that passes.
The voting
is a total mixed bag Courtney, Bruce, Bobby and Aras each get a vote but it comes down to Bruce and Bobby and Bobby
gets the well-deserved ax. Jeff says something about how the honesty shared during tribal may bring them all closer.
Has he been watching the same tribe I have?
My Survivor of the week is the wily Danielle for deciding that
they don't have do whatever Aras says. Often proposed female alliances fade quickly, but this one might have a
chance.
