Foa day 15

Mick is shaking. He's that cold and wet.

People's skin is so pruned it's peeling.

Mick says there was envy when Ashley went home, because she'll be warm and dry.

Jaison talks about watching Captain Planet as a kid.

ER goes and sits in the water. He's having fun being miserable.

Sea turtle!


Galu, day 15.

Russell tries fishing.


They'd kill for a tarp. And blame Russell for not having one.

Russell is trying to work on the fire while everyone else is just huddling trying to keep warm.


Russell says he's making deposits in case he needs to make a withdrawal later.


Everyone thinks he's working himself too hard and that it'll catch up with him.


Foa day 15.

Hey, it's raining!

Mick has huddled into a corner of a tree, and it's keeping him warmer than the shelter, which has holes.

ER mutters "worthless. no good." Thinks they're all wusses..they're a bunch of babies and they lose challenges because they're lazy.

Accuses everyone of just sitting there and sucking their thumbs.

At Galu, Erik has been in his hole for a day or so. He tries to reason with nature...and the rain has stopped!


The rainbow is beautiful.

Russell's teeth look green...what has he been eating?



RC:

One person from each tribe is strapped into a large sphere, and that person will lead two blindfolded tribemates through a course. Once the course is complete, the one person in the sphere will direct the rest of the blindfolded tribe on a table maze.

Sitting out for Galu are Monica, Kelly, Shambo and Dave.

Reward is pizza, to be enjoyed at TC. Both tribes will be going.


Liz and Laura are in the spheres. Pushing them are ER/Jaison and Russell/Erik.

Foa takes an early lead, but Galu overtakes them.

Lots of crashing into trees...and each other. Foa in the lead again.

Russell is exhausted.

Foa makes it to the puzzle. Galu not too far behind.

Russell wanders into the Foa puzzle area. John drags him back.

Foa takes the lead on the table maze. And Russell passes out on the table.

Jeff stops the challenge. Medical takes over.

that's not fair, why foa foa needs to go to TB?
Foa foa should be the winner because galu made a poor choice in strategy; they let russell participate in the challenge.

Russell comes to and wants to continue the challenge. I'm not sure if he's brave or stupid.

His blood pressure is even lower than Mike's was.

Jeff calls the challenge over. No reward. Double TC.

Jaison yells "feel better Russell" as they leave.

Tribes head back to camp while Russell continues to get medical attention.


At Galu, they'll be shocked if Russell returns.

And it's raining again.

John thinks it's unfortunate that Russell's body failed him today.

Laura realized that they're not sure what to do with Russell not there, with him not giving direction.


Meanwhile, Russell sits up and is a little lightheaded. Actually, he passes back out again. With his eyes wide open. Heart rate went from 97 to 68.

He's being removed. And he's begging not to go.

Jeff is trying to reason with him, to tell him he's not a quitter.

Poor guy is in tears, and I don't blame him.

Gemini, both tribes were going to TC regardless. It's a double elimination week. The only thing that changed is that nobody will be eating pizza at TC.

oh sorry i didn't catch that.
thanks for clarification.
but i think foa foa should've given the reward due to galu's poor strategy; it's their own fault.

Sharks! Fishes!

Foa day 15

Liz eats a banana. And she's upset that they have to go to TC.

Liz and Natalie realize that they're probably the two on the block.


ER informs Natalie that her vote is simple, it's Liz.

Liz talks to Jaison and Mick. She says she'd like to stay if possible.





Galu day 15.

Monica takes the girls aside and wants them to have her back because she knows that Shambo wants her gone.


Shambo tries to talk to the girls, but Kelly just says "I don't know." They won't even listen to her.

Monica wants to vote out Shambo simply because Shambo wrote her name down.

The guys talk, and they want to keep Shambo because she works hard and poses no threat. They want to get rid of Monica...largely because of her bond with Laura.

Shambo talks to Erik. He won't confirm to Shambo that he won't write her name down.

He will, however, drop hints to her to vote for Monica.



Group TC:

Russell is gone.

Shambo asked her reaction. Really sad that it's how he went out.

ER asked if it's a break for Foa. Yeah, but that's not how he wanted to beat Russell.

Dave asked what it's like watching another human in crisis. It's the hardest thing he's done.

Erik feels like he's in solitary confinement for a crime he didn't commit.


It starts pouring again. Erik is terrified that it won't stop.

Dave says that due to numbers, their spirits are high.

ER says the attitude at Foa is fine, and they can come back.

Mick asked if today's challenge feels like a moral victory...they have to believe they'd have won it.

Erik says he's not nervous about a momentum shift.


NO TC due to the unprecedented incomplete challenge.

Erik says they're already down a man today. ER says Foa will come back strong.

Erik challenges Foa to a challenge right there. Mick says he'd welcome it.


Galu has to assign a new leader. This should be interesting.



We're shown scenes of Russell being removed. He's really demoralized that he had to leave under those conditions.



Next week: At Galu, the guys make Shambo one of their own, and an ER seed gets planted in the other tribe (Laura.)

Even though I haven't liked him for much of the show I gotta give Russell credit...he went out giving his all...was it dumb? Perhaps but I'd rather see someone going out like that then just quitting

I also found a new found respect for Evil Russell...he is right in his analysis, he keeps plotting and keeps moving, but the young ones can't....further since they have no fat reserves I would guess that they can't cope with the elements as well as a more solidly built guy like Russell (fat reserves)...

The Game is finally getting interesting...oh and BTW, When Russell was on the ground and was not conscious but had his eyes open...I gotta admit that was scary runaway

My husband says that the movies & TV always get it wrong when they show someone passing out. The movies etc always show a person falling backwards when in reality they tend to always fall forward. Sam said he knew as soon he saw it that he had passed out where as I thought well he's just pooped & not finishing up.

I agree seeing him passed out with eyes open was freaky, but I guess it takes the brain some work to shut the eyes so it didn't care about the eyes... but was working on keeping the heart going.

With all that rain, I was hoping everyone would get the pizza. Jeff really has quite a bit of power to decide what is going to happen next when something like that happens.

I kind of liked seeing everyone sit at tribal council like that.

MrLurk said the same thing Mango...thought they should all get pizza! The conditions this season are harsh...I don't know how I'd cope with 15 straight days of heavy rain if I had a House to go into & dry off & warm up at night, let alone being outside in a leaky shelter!

Evil Russell has earned my respect...not only is he playing The Game, he is staying strong while the younger folks are all falling apart...maybe as Rajin said it's the extra fat stores on him, but still!

Sad to see the "other" Russell have to be taken out by medical! Hope he is OK...I wonder what he and his family were thinking when they watched it last night...I'm sure he doesn't have any recollection of what exactly happened so last night was the first time they were seeing it too!

Excellent episode. One of the most emotional episodes ever and one of the most intense tribal councils ever ... and no one was voted off.

You can clearly see, the GALU vs. FOA FOA battle is going to be very heated.

I didn't like Eric in his pre-show interviews, but have found new respect for him. Same with Evil Russell, hated him in pre-game and the first few episodes, but he was so different last night. His emotional strength will carry him far.

The fact Laura mentioned how Shambo is so quick to flip to Foa Foa and the Galu-men scooping Shambo to keep their lead over the Galu-women, it appears this tribe is going to self-destruct.

Lots of fun ahead --- can't wait.

This is a lesson to the Survivor producers, don't make the tribes that big...keep it at 16 gripe

Oh and I agree, the show has just started for me laugh

Someone apparently e-mailed JP at his blog about the pizza and he said that they did give them pizza at TC but they did have time to show it.
Glad to hear that.
