On last weeks Survivor, Charlie was kicked out of the game thanks to Nobag’s weakest members. Tonight those who were friends with Charlie weren’t too happy as Randy and Corinne silently freaked out, well for the night following Tribal Council at least. The following day it was all about the hidden idols. Yes I put an s on that, although there really aren’t two. Bob found it smart, for some reason, to tell Sugar, and only Sugar, that he made a fake Immunity Idol. She played it off well as she didn’t let on that she has the real one. In the end Sugar just became even more powerful as she has the real idol and knows that there is another one now floating around. Who would have though she’d become the most powerful person in the game? I sure didn’t! With the idols now out in the air it was time for the next reward. While getting the tree mail both Corinne and Randy talked about how much they hated everyone remaining. They feel they are the only two now aligned from old Kota and realized that Matty had to switch over.
This tie with Matty played a role in the next reward challenge which brought back the Survivor Auction. Each of the players were given $500 and given the chance to bid on several items. First up were three cold beers and it was a bidding war between Randy and Sugar. She kept bidding to get Randy’s bid higher and higher and it worked. After getting the beer, Randy was left with only $320. The next item up was the dreaded covered item and Kenny took it home. It was a note to send someone to Exile Island and gain their money. Kenny didn’t waste any time and sent Bob to exile once again, knowing there is no idol and knowing Bob thinks there is. Sugar, who had been very vocal, got the next item of chocolate and peanut butter while Susie won a bubble bathe. Corinne won the only other individual reward in an advantage in the next immunity challenge. Kenny could have outbid her but in the end he didn’t need it. The last item was for the tribe and Randy won cookies for everyone. Although it was a nice gesture he turned into an idiot. He wanted to “own all the cookies” and designated who got the most. He gave Corinne and Matty one and half each while everyone received one. In the end only one cookie remained and, since she didn’t take one at first, Sugar took the last cookie and gave it to Matty. Randy wasn’t to happy about that move and made everyone know when returning to camp.

Why is it that each and every season there tends to be a tribe that just sucks? Gabon’s resident “horrible” tribe is Fang who, once again, lost double challenges and sent yet another out of the game. As we begin from last episode we join the Fang tribe post-tribal council. Ace wasn’t too happy with Jacquie going home but was at least excited to have Sugar back. She returned from her third run in with Exile Island to learn Kelly stayed while Jacquie was voted out. Sugar wasn’t happy as well as she was close to Jacquie and hid her anger through the dark.
The next morning the old Fang members over at Kota were realizing how much better their lives were. They had food food and more food with the several fish they caught. They even had a very interesting shocking fish, which made a somewhat boring moment at least somewhat interesting. Back over at Kota things were completely opposite with the fighting beginning once again. While cooking rice, GC didn’t want to eat but was told by Crystal to eat his rice. She was doing so in a very joking manor but GC couldn’t take it and fought back. Ace was excited for it all though knowing there were cracks in the alliance of old Fang members. That’s all he really needed to weasel his way to the next round.

Survivor generally has a tribal swap sometime throughout its run but on Survivor Gabon the tribes got swapping just a bit earlier then usual. On the last episode we saw Paloma sent home, even after trying to get the tribe to turn on enemy Ace. Following that leave the Kota tribe returned from their, much needed, Tribal Council with an outcast: Kelly. Being only friends with Paloma, Kelly now had nobody on the tribe and realized she would probably be the next to go if they lost. Since Paloma was gone to hate on Ace then moved onto hating Kelly, calling her a fat cow for no apparent reason at all.
Over at the Fang tribe things were back to normal with Randy telling everyone the truth about their rice situation yet them all still wanting to eat three meals a day. While Randy, Dan, Susie and Matty went to “collect fruit” the three remaining tribemates realized they had to bind together to stay in the game. GC, Crystal and Kenny then created the first alliance on Fang but they weren’t the only one. Out in the woods the fruit gatherers were also creating an alliance splitting the tribe once again but not for long!

Survivor Gabon got even more interesting as the tribe who nobody thought could gain a win actually did, sending the dominate Kota to Tribal council. Following Fang’s most recent tribal council where crazy old bat Gillian was voted off, the tribe was more fractured then ever before. Although everyone knew they’d have a new day in the morning to recoup, Randy was a bit upset that he got put on the “stupid” tribe.
Randy’sĀ opinion didn’t change in the morning as he realized they were done half their rice in only seven days. As Randy asked the tribe to cut it down to two meals a day everyone agreed…. except for GC. He felt he didn’t have anything to do with it since they wasted a pot of rice in the first few days. Since GC once again felt someone was targetting him for a fight, Randy brought it to him as the two quarreled. It then became obvious who was the “cancer” in the group, according to Randy at least.
