OMG is Holly nuts or what? Throwing away the snails? Filling Danny’s $1600 shoes with sand and putting them in the water and then fessing up to the whole damn tribe? Is this woman trying to get voted out or what? Tyrone’s reaction to her confession was priceless (“one eye on her and one eye on my shoes”). She then goes off with Jimmy J, all ready to quit. Jimmy J must be feeling great that a new target to be voted out has emerged, that’s why he wants her not to quit: he wants her to be the target next time they go to TC. I’m guessing that this isn’t the last time that Holly has lost it.
Marty continues to impress. He lets Jimmy J have the leadership position, while building a solid alliance with Jill and Danny. Great job on finding the idol with Jill’s reading of the clue. There doesn’t seem to be a numbers game in Espada yet, but this threesome looks like it is in a position of power.
Sasha Na’Onka is La Flor’s nutter. Stealing Fabio’s socks, not being able to keep her mouth shut, pissing off pretty much everyone on her tribe. She was saved pretty much by Alina and Kelly B deciding to target Brenda instead, which was a smart move that backfired because Chase is infatuated with Brenda, and Shannon is his own worst enemy.
Sash is a player. He is trying something new: a minority alliance. It’s a new concept, but imagine the furor if people had started e.g., an all-white alliance. It would be called racist. Brenda laughs it off, but she is smart enough to realize that if people want her vote because she’s Hispanic/Asian/whatever she’ll go along with it.
Na’Onka sitting out of the immunity challenge was weird because she is so physical, but this gave Kelly B a chance to shine. Benry pretty much lost the challenge for La Flor, but you could argue that it wa because Espada used the MOP.
Na’Onka’s plan to out Kelly B as a weak player backfired, but she had the good sense of admitting her mistake, if only to the cameras. But, while I think she’s a dumb player, I have to give it to her that she scrambled to get Shannon out. Brenda was saved pretty much because of Na’Onka scrambling and Chase spilling the beans.
Shannon has only himself to blame for being voted out, as his meltdown contributed to people flipping their votes. He could also have targeted Na’Onka, and Chase would’ve been on board with that. By targeting Brenda, it was difficult to keep Chase in the fold. I have to give it to Shannon, that he was honest. It was Chase that flipped between alliances and seemingly can’t be trusted with any secret. The guy is a moron.
I hope Kelly B and Alina stick around. They have an idol clue which they’re not smart enough to figure out, but who knows what will happen next. It is interesting that Alina voted for Brenda, but Kelly B and Benry flipped and voted out Shannon. I’m guessing the existing alliances will be reshuffled.
