The bloodbath has begun! And in such a fun way too! This season the contestants really like to drone on about how they are safe & blindsides are fun right before getting voted out. I find it extremely satisfying to watch, and hope that trend continues.
All things considered, this was a hugely important episode for Moon & my "underdog" teams. Kim stood on the brink of loyalty v. cunning and really wanted to leap onto the cunning side. But her loyalty alliance of Sabrina and Chelsea dragged her back to their side, ensuring that their alliance will last at least a little bit longer.
My biggest disappointment with this season is how most people are deciding not to give the challenges 100% of their effort. Strategically it makes sense, but only in the short-term. The ladies don't want to reveal themselves to be a threat. But these women need to recognize that Kim will use "I've won almost all the challenges" as a very strong argument for the jury to give her a million bucks (on top of all the rest of it).

Rankings:
1.
Pride of Chucky - Kim is a genius & we all know it. But why don't the other women in her alliance know it? Shouldn't they recognize at this point that Kim's the master puppeteer who's most likely to get jury votes? I guess maybe the smartest people left are in her inner alliance & value loyalty, and maybe the rest are just too dumb to figure it out. Tarzan seems to be the only one in the know, and he seems happy to keep quiet about it... for now. Bag & Leah's current ideal final three is Kim & any two other females.
2. Untouchables - Seriously don't touch me - Alicia continues to suck. Lucky for her a bad personality is actually an attribute right now, and I think she knows it. We'll see how she works the game now after losing her closest ally. Doug & Bri's current ideal final three is Alicia, Christina, and Tarzan. I really can't see her beating anyone left besides Christina, but Tarzan's a good match here because Moon's team doesn't have many points.
3. Ladies of
Ephesus - Convincing Kim to do what everyone else wanted was a crucial move for Chelsea, even if she didn't fully realize its
importance. This move solidified Chelsea's alliance and should empower her more. I hope she finds it in her to starting making tough decisions and putting herself first. Hopefully my team will start to earn points soon! I've only earned 1 point over the last 3 weeks. My current ideal final three is Chelsea, Christina, and Sabrina.
4. The Sycophants - Moon dodges a close one in this episode. I hope Sabrina's name doesn't get brought up again. Tarzan is comfortable now, but I can't imagine that anyone will let him make it to the final 3. There are too many men on the jury, many of whom would probably vote his way. Previews indicate that next week Tarzan will try to make a move though - I'm excited to see how that goes! Moon's current ideal final three is Sabrina, Tarzan, and Christina. Unfortunately this seems like the least likely scenario out of all my "ideal final three" combos.
5. No Brains
- Goodbye, dumb Kat! I will not miss you. I can't believe how many mistakes you made in this game - you should've been voted out long ago. Kat will probably be one of the biggest wild card jury votes since I suspect she'll act like a huge brat about getting blindsided & vote on spite rather than for an actual good reason.
Douche of the Week:
Voting for Kat this week. Selfishness & immaturity do not a millionaire make.

Kat undoubtedly. Douchey moments:
1) How she acted toward Kim when she came in 2nd in the challenge.
2) Picking Kim and Alicia over Tarzan and Christina for the reward. It would have been redeeming for her to show a heart because everyone already knows she has no brain.
3) When asked the reason for choosing Kim and Alicia, she said it was because she wanted to hang out and get drunk with them. Nice.
4) 80% likelihood that you've had multiple sexual episodes with your cousin = douchey. "We live together, work together, eat together, breed together..." It all makes sense now.
Well, Bag has me laughing so hard that I can barely breathe, let alone write my comment.
I just wanted to say that I sooo wanted Jeff to ask Kat, "So do you still think blindsides are always fun and exciting...cool beans?"
Definitely gets the DOW vote from me!
Kat was on fire this week with stupidity! So entertaining. Favorite part: "im gonna get DRUNKKKK"
Cool beans.
KAT = DOW
I heard from Dachui & they both vote Kat for DoW as well. Looks like a unanimous decision!!
Kat DoW, for the four hilarious reasons Bag mentioned plus her (savvy) last-minute appeal to appear on the next Survivor: All-Stars.
Pretty cool that four teams are still in this game so late in the season. Gonna be close to impossible to tackle Kim though.
I'm voting for Kat for DoW as well. ALl reasons so far have been valid, but mine is mostly based on her cousin/boyfriend legitimately asking "So, what's the dizzle?" when they started their reward meal. Using "dizzle" on national TV while not being Snoop Dogg = DoW vote for anyone you're acquainted with. It's a rule.
I believe, Doug, that both you and Spud would also use the word "dizzle" in the same scenario.
Spud for DoW
Unfortunately, Survivor doesn't provide enough Coors Light to get into full dizzle mode.
But I would smack the fo sheezy out of Spud when he attempted to make all the tribe watch him drink out of his water jug. That's the dizzle for rizzle.
Chicken Legs DoW vote for Spud.
Switching my vote from Kat to Spud for DoW.
Episode 13 DoW: Kim for being so conniving.
