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’s 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.

It’s been awhile in the making but Big Brother 10 proved once again that a solid two person alliance can make it to the final two. With Dan and Memphis, the Renegades, sitting in the final two spot of the season it is now the third time in a row an alliance of two from the very start will win the game. On Tuesday night we saw Keesha walk out of the Big Brother house, furious as Memphis and giving Dan all the glory. Dan’s outburst as Keesha was elected against Memphis was just staged in hopes to throw Jerry off the Renegade trail. As the three were flying up in the sky for the endurance Head of Household, Dan and Memphis continued their “feud”. They wanted Jerry to think he was safe with both of them and he fell for the bait.

Although Jerry didn’t fall off the airplane on purpose, with only 10 minutes in Jerry’s plan tilted and he fell to the padded ground. He felt bad for not staying up longer but with the “feud” between Dan and Memphis he had a feeling both would take him now. Knowing Jerry wouldn’t last very long Dan and Memphis planned for Memphis to throw the HoH and give Dan the win. It did go according to plan but Memphis just took longer then expected to fall. That gave Dan the win for the first part of the HoH, pitting Memphis against Jerry in the second HoH “brawl”. Following the HoH Jerry realized that the feud could help him. Since he stuck with Memphis for a few rounds now he kind of hung around him but that just added to the “tension” between the two Renegades.

Last weeks Mole left us with some things to ponder. Like would Nicole really kill Paul in sleep and could she REALLY do it without leaving DNA evidence? The answer to both these questions is no as Paul was still alive come the next day. Good thing Nicole didn’t go through with it though since now we get to see her and Paul continue their feud! The next morning everyone, including Paul, awoke and Nicole’s tirade was the talk of the town. Paul wanted to use it to his advantage and Ali ate it up. She finally spoke for once and let us know that her hatred for Nicole is growing along with Paul’s. It seems the cliques are starting early and we learn about a new coalition that’s apparently been on for the past two episodes. Mark, Bobby and Clay are now in a coalition to share information on who they think is the Mole. Of course it won’t last long though as we soon find out.

In the first mission the players are forced into two sides, the “Can’t Trust” and “Blindly Trusts” groups. They then had to pair up with someone from the opposite side, creating five teams of two. The mission was fairly simple yet risky. Each pair would luge down a metal track with the person in the front blindfolded. The person in the back had to yell out pictures of fruit that they saw and the person who was blindfolded would then have to pick out those fruits in put them in order. For each fruit they got right, $2,000 would be put into the pot. They had strict orders to not talk after they passed the finish line but of course that wasn’t the case for some.

First up was Bobby and Clay. Bobby was the one yelling out the fruit and seemed confusing as he didn’t yell out the colors right away. They got 5/7 right but talked after crossing the finish line so they got no money. Next up was Ali and Paul who got a legitimate 5/7 for the team. Victoria and Craig broke the “no talking” rule as well and lost $14,000 as they got all seven fruits right but broke the rules. Kristen and Mark were the first to get all seven right and actually keep the money while Alex and Nicole had an interesting ride. She yelled out “green apple” twice which put Alex off by one for the fruit selection. This gained them one point and made everyone wonder how she could screw up so badly.

That night the coalition between Bobby and Clay/Mark ended. Clay and Mark now believe Bobby to be the mole and want nothing to do with him. Although they say they will talk to him if he comes to them, they won’t go to him for anymore information. The day the crew heads out for a nice spa retreat. Of course they all thought something was up but it seemed legit… at first. They spent some time in the pool and hot tub and then some time getting massages. Of course John showed up to screw things up and start their next mission.

Once again the players were split up. Kristen, Victoria and Ali made up one team, Bobby, Craig and Nicole another and the last team consisted of Bobby and Alex. Once Mark and Clay found out what the challenge was they dropped out because they had too much “pride” apparently. John then filled them in on the mission, they had to walk around Chile in their underwear looking for a shirt, tie and pants for the guys and a two piece shirt and skirt/pants for the girls. Alex and Paul had the easiest time once again thanks to Alex’s knowledge of Spanish. They quickly found shirts from cab drivers and pants from a few Americans. Kristen, Victoria and Ali had the hardest time it seemed. They couldn’t’ find any clothing for the longest time and Ali even almost quit. This put suspicion on both Kristen and Victoria but they kept moving and eventually got lucky enough to get fully dressed for dinner. In the third and find team was Nicole, who found her clothing faster then anyone, and Bobby and Craig. The two guys had a hard time finding clothing but once they want the laundry mat with their real clothing they were all set. Since 8/9 people made it to dinner they claimed an extra $40,000 for the pot putting them at $129,000 for the entire game.

That night at the pre-quiz dinner things got pretty heated. It all started when Paul said that Mark was playing the game hardcore and the two then went at it for a bit. Bobby, Craig and Nicole then barged in and Nicole’s statement from the last execution came into play. Of course she played the ‘nice’ card, which angered Paul a bit, but he had different plans. He wanted to get everyone heated before the quiz in hopes it would screw up their chances for a green thumb.

At the execution something interesting happened. John offered everyone $20,000 to leave the game right then and there, nobody bit the bait. Three people were then shown to be safe and another $10,000 added to the bribe. Ali was the first to take the $30,000 and walked out of the game. Funny thing is they all thought they were safe since she left and Bobby even said he wouldn’t take the money. John then came back and let them all know someone else was still going home. Bobby was then shown to get the red thumb and his words came back to bite him. Did Paul take out his biggest enemy by causing a ruckus at dinner? Who knows but something got to Bobby. That takes two more out of the game and puts us at the final eight. Next week it seems the drama continues as Mark’s crazy side is revealed, probably thanks to Paul.

On last weeks episode we were left with a teaser that Raheim, the hotels bad boy, would be returning to the game for a very special reason. This week he did just that and his choices resulted in another double elimination. It all started as the guests were put through another Pandora’s Box. Once again the explosions occurred as this time it seemed Myrna was being targeted. In his question James outed Myrna as having no connection to any of the remaining guys. Another question was then asked about Myrna where she failed to defend herself. When it was her turn to ask a question she turned it around which erupted in an argument with Mikey. She ended up making herself look even worse but that’s what usually happens when Pandora’s Box is brought into play. The last question of the night was then read by a very special guest. Raheim walked through the door to let everyone know he was there and there to “do a job”.

With Raheim there everyone was on their toes. Some where scared, such as TD and Stephanie, while others were excited to see his return. He wanted the night to go well so he told them all to simply party the night away and that they did. James, Stephanie and TD seemed to cling to him right away knowing he would have some sort of power in the game. Myrna and Zack did the opposite and thought if they tried to stay as “outsiders” they would avoid the drama Raheim was sure to bring.

The next morning things changed quickly as everyone tried to get their chance to talk to Raheim. While most were doing that Zack pulled Krista aside to let her know that James, who she trusts, wanted to get Ryan out last round when Zack was immune. She didn’t like this too much and realized then that James was playing the game “too hard” and she felt that was a bad thing to do. Throughout the rest of the episode Krista’s hatred towards James builds but it ultimately helps both him and her in the end.

When it came to discussions with Raheim everyone seemed to patch things up. When he talked to Stephanie she let him know that everything between them was a huge misunderstanding. He seemed to believe her, even though she was telling the truth, and it somewhat assured that Stephanie wouldn’t be going home thanks to Raheim. TD was next up and the conversation was very similar. He told her that he understand why she did what she did and wasn’t upset that she had to make an alliance with the new people to further her in the game.

Next up was a crucial one as Krista pulled Raheim aside to let him know about James. She told him how James would tell her he had to get Raheim out and also mentioned what Zack said about getting out Ryan. He wasn’t happy with the news she just dealt him and pulled both James and Mikey inside. He asked both if they ever wanted him out of the game and both said no. Later Krista told James what she told Raheim and also told him she couldn’t choose him as her roommate. It’s interesting how one person coming back into the game changed several relationships. It almost brought everyone together in a way which I would have never have predicted.

James and Raheim then had a private conversation before the elimination could occur. Here James admitted that he did say he wanted Raheim out at some point but blamed anger and beer. Raheim seemed to understand but then laid it all out. He told James that nobody in the game trusts him anymore and anything he does there really isn’t anyone he can choose that will keep him in the game. James seemed to know this was the case but I don’t really think he knew how bad it was for him, game wise.

When it was time for the elimination to occur everyone wanted to know why Raheim was there and what he would be doing. Amanda then very simply asked Raheim who was most trustworthy and least trustworthy still at Paradise. He chose Mikey to be the most and James to be the least (oh what a shocker! not). The twist the producers probably had in mind then backfired as Amanda revealed that both Mikey and James were safe and were actually given the power to send one person home each. It’s kind of unfair but I guess the twists in Paradise never are. Raheim chose both people who were his friends and it guaranteed that two newbies would be leaving. In the end Mikey sent Aaron home while James chose Myrna to leave. Raheim also left the hotel leaving the game in its final seven. Next week more drama ensues thanks to James and it seems even Mikey is turning on him. Then we get back to normal as a single elimination occurs that declares the final three couples.
