SURVIVOR S31 Cambodia: Second Chance Premieres Wed, Sept. 23 @ 8 PM, CBS

[GreatestLaker]

This episode was damn good. So much went on.

The way Candace laid into Brad was a thing of beauty. At times I thought "damn, she's going at his neck." All they did was put him on blast and look at him as his soul burned. I knew that Marissa was done. She was on borrowed time and it was sealed when John showed up. I'ma miss that fat ass. I didn't expect John to smoke Candace. This is the worst situation for any newly voted out castaways. Their only chance is to luck up because they are in the arena with two bulls. It was a good move to toss the clue in the fire. It keeps the stigma/ pressure off you and doesn't invite that energy into the camp. People are probably looking but it hasn't shown up in the show.

These fools cannot win a challenge and it's disheartening to watch. I hate to see a tribe lose time and time again but these fools are making goofy decisions every time they get a chance. Why are the females anywhere near a puzzle? You think they would learn by now.

The guy Brad is a clown. If you are proposing a plan, why would you speak about aloud when your possible targets are there to hear everything. No one is so clueless to not know that they fit your prerequisites. He blindsided John so I'm dumfounded as to why he didn't do it again? Why would you not go with them, agree to their plan and then go to work on your real agenda? He sat there with Ceira and Katie even after ol boy came back to get him. WTF? Then he gets goaded into talking about it by Jeff and exposes himself which leaves the door wide open and Caleb seized his opportunity. Great to see but now he's in the den with not only Candace and John, but a married couple. One who he freshly blindsided and the other who hates him something serious. The new comer tribe is garbage.

I said it last week that Culpepper would be next after John's blindside. You cannot pull such a big move so early because they target goes to you. I didn't know how it would go down but I knew he was next. Can't wait to see how this goes down.

This guy Culpepper was making goofy moves under the guise of strategy.

• They lose a challenge and Gervase celebrates. He votes off Marissa, a stronger female competitor of all the females, to teach him a lesson. Gervase doesn't switch and his tribe wins the next challenge.
• Next is Tyson's girl Rachel, the next strongest female. They hope Tyson will be compelled to save her and switch. He doesn't. They lost the next challenge as well. I don't think this was all Culpepper's idea.
• They blindside John because Culpepper doesn't want him to team back up with his wife. This was silly at that time because he knew he didn't have the idol and he was a valuable member because of his strength. Remember that the girls lost every round in the sumo challenge. Post merge, you would have people shook. Right now, you end up losing an asset and making more enemies.

Culpepper was on some other stuff. If he wasn't so emotional with his vote reasoning, the tribe would be stronger and he'd still be in the game. All you had to do was vote Katie or Ceira first and second if it came to that. Maybe you wouldn't have lost four in a row and be voted out.

I don't think Hayden's tribe is done by any means. If a merge happens I fully expect Hayden to be able to pull over Kat and Ceire to pull over Laura. Whoever feels on the outs might side with their love one's tribe.

In theory some of Brad's plans aren't that horrendous, but his biggest problem is he doesn't know when to shut up. Like telling John at RI that he shouldn't have trusted him and telling Jeff at Tribal people who don't have a love one might be in danger. Hello? You don't think Caleb is going to be feel directly threatened by those comments?

It will be interesting if Laura switches places with Brad. This is one of the best seasons in a LONG TIME. Philippines was good after the merge, but it doesn't compare to this.

LOL @ Coconuts bandits. fukking hilarious.

I think they are done. They have to count on the merge coming soon and their loved ones. Who knows how many they will lose until then? I remember that one of the combination numbers in the challenge was "13" so that might be the number.

His plans weren't bad at all, it was the timing. No need to blindside John so early. He trusted Brad so what was the point in thinking so far ahead? Jeff stays having people talk themselves into a corner. I do not want to sell Culpepper short. He could definitely win or survive the duel, it's just that they are gunning for him moreso than just trying to win. I hope he does make the cut. This season has been 4 for 4 so I have no complaints. I really enjoy watching this game.

The merge usually happens at episode 7.

Lets say they lose the next two and get rid of Vytas and Kaitie.

Its then Hayden, Caleb, Ceire. They pull over Laura and Kat. That makes it 5 vs 6. The person coming back from RI could potentially join them.

Its then 6 vs 6.

One thing I keep reading and seeing in the recaps is Kat keeps telling Hayden that she is in danger whenever they see each other. If you watch the episodes carefully she always looks at Hayden, points at herself then whispers "I'm in danger. I'm next." Here is a screenshot from this episode.



If you watch Big Brother you'll know Hayden is a dangerous player. None of those vets are on his level. Don't count him out.

I appreciate your observations. I have no room to complain because I'm loving everything I've seen so far. If any part of what you said happens, it will be even more entertaining. I just need Brad to win and hopefully reenter the game.

Or his wife switches with him.

Or his wife switches with him.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That could happen. She was really on some "I can't believe that he is so disliked. He's a leader. If I know Brad, he's making sure they're fed. He's catching fish and making sure they're ok." If you called that right, LOL DAMN! I hope not because there would be nothing stopping the veterans from voting him off after their first loss.

 

[61 Corpses]

The only thing about this that I worry about is that Caleb will start feeling himself a little too much and just basically become the new Brad

 

[⠀⠀⠀]

i would fukk katie. she got big milky t*ts. i suck de t*ts

 

[GreatestLaker]

Its on tonight.

 

[GreatestLaker]

I think Aras screwed up here. I would have taken out Kat to weaken Hayden. Plus Laura M was loyal to him.

 

[Hades]

I knew Culpepper had it in him to win. I'm surprised that John beat Candace once again. John shouldn't feel bad that she lost. She's played quite a few times. Now it's your turn. I think that he fumbled once again with the clue. Instead of giving it to Monica, he should have gave it to someone else just because. Maybe they hesitate before tossing it into the fire or maybe they keep it. I just think that was a wasted opportunity to do something different.

I don't like how they kept showing the newcomer tribe talking about needing a win because I knew that was a lead up to them winning. I'm glad that they did because it shakes things up.

Aras messed up voting out Laura M. This is the same thing that Culpepper did with John. Laura was on the outside of the alliance but she wasn't a threat. She has shown up in three challenges and has held her weight. Why get rid of an ally? Are they really scared of Culpepper and Monica teaming up? If so, this was still a bad move. There's no guarantee that Laura will beat out Culpepper or John so why serve her up? Plus, that bish looks good. Not really a plus but I just wanted to write that.

I'll see how this plays out but right now I'm not feeling it. Take the easy vote and keep the strength.

 

[61 Corpses]

Snitchin Tina at it again

Based on his edit so far, Vytas is going to make it far in the game

Tyson has been 10x more likeable and entertaining this season than his other two seasons

 

[GreatestLaker]

I thought my nikka Aras was a gonna.

The women fukked up. You have a chance to take out Vytas and you don't do it?

Didn't they watch last season with Malcolm? Stupid move on their part.

Why is Tyson still gunning for Aras? Should have stopped when the switched happened. Its 3 vs 3. You need the numbers fool. He is pulling the same move that killed him in his original season. Going after his alliance members after a switch.

 

[Hades]

I didn't expect Laura to crush Culpepper and John. It was no contest. I have to say that these duels have been exciting the entire time with all these upsets. I wasn't to hot on them at first but they are providing great content. I'm sad to see Brad go as I really wanted him to get back in and cause some ruckus. If I was Vytas, I wouldn't have tossed the clue. I would have shared it with my alliance and found it. I don't know why everyone is so scared of it.

Tyson is hilarious. My man just showed up on the other beach and started eating all the food and putting Aras on notice. I like him planting the seed to get him out. If anything, he can boo up Ciera to knock Aras off and then go after Hayden and Caleb. As far as the females, they messed up something serious. That challenge was doomed from the start and what was with two premature celebrations? They fumbled not taking out the easy vote in Vytas. I don't know why Monica's strategizing was pissing Kat off so much. You know Tina doesn't have a problem telling so she walked right into that one. Monica gave her an out but she didn't take it. That was her mistake.

I hope that Laura and John move on in the final duels and make it back into the game. I am enjoying the hell out of this season. LOL at Ciera damn near dying at the end of that swim. I'd knock her off quick.

I re-watched Samoa over the weekend and she was a killer in the challenges. She helped her team go up 8-4 and she won 2 straight immunity necklaces before Russell took her out.
