Easily the worst episode thus far early in the season. Even so, no shortage of observations/findings from the Aruba Commission:#1 – Simply put, the Sele tribe friggin’ SUCKS. What a sad embarrassment. Sele should have seriously considered pooling all their fire tokens together and presenting them to Jeff to “buy” an early Tribal Switch.
#2 – What hasn’t sucked is Natalie’s efforts at EoE. The girl is killing it as she continues to stockpile fire tokens. It’s the same type of proactive effort we saw in the second half of San Juan del Sur that earned her the season’s victory. Problem is, if Natalie’s unsuccessful winning her way back into the game, those tokens won’t mean much for her in Fiji...but perhaps they might fetch a decent price on EBAY.
#3 – The most pointless question asked during the episode was, “Dakal; you have an extra player...who’s sitting out?” Like DUUUUHHHH!!!...who do you think???
#4 – It’s too bad that ridiculous toothpick didn’t impede Wendell from obnoxiously shouting over Probst's annoying challenge narration while barking instructions on how to solve the “damn friggin’ puzzle.” Correct the Commission if it’s wrong...but wasn’t that the same “damn friggin’ puzzle” that Wendell failed on so miserably in Survivor: Ghost Island??
#5 – The Aruba Commission does not recall a fishing net included in any reward. Perhaps that was “coltoned” to the tribes as well? It would certainly fit into the gifted theme of this season.
#6 – Speaking of the fishing net, Sandra places rocks on the edges of the net to anchor it, and when a poor lost baby shark gets disoriented and caught in the netting, Sandra proclaims herself as the tribe “provider” and no one is “at her level.” ROTFLMAO! When our Almighty Creator was pouring “delusion” into Sandra’s mold, someone forgot to say “WHEN!”
#7 – With only THREE of the remaining EIGHT Sele members Old-School players, the FIVE New-Schoolers are concerned about the minority THREE “running the show?” Could someone PLEASE explain this new math to the Commission??
#8 – A-Dum is worried, so he is spearheading a plot to vote out Perv-ati. And to ensure his plan is executed to perfection, he spills the beans to the other two Old-Schoolers? REALLY?? In a season titled “Winners at War,” A-Dum is assuming the role of a Kamikaze pilot.
#9 – Sarah has a mission to swipe a “steal-a-vote” advantage from the opposing camp at night when it is SO pitch black dark, she is unable to see two inches in front of her. Cops-R-Us put their law-enforcement heads together to come up with an ingenious plan of using fire ash to blacken her face so she will not be seen. Was it mentioned the area is so dark no one is able to see two inches in front of them? Sure hope Tony and Sarah are never going to apply for employment on a S.W.A.T Team...how about we rename them Mall Cops-R-Us.
#10 – Sandra has announced her retirement after this season. Let’s not get too excited...remember when The Who announced its “Farewell” Tour in 1982?
#11 – The last time the Commission saw that look of bewilderment on Rob’s face at TC was in S4-Marquesas when the gay nurse John (whom Rob affectionately referred to as “tink-ah-ball”) bitch-slapped Rob into a 10th place finish submission. A 10th place finish this season would be an accomplishment.
#12 – The Aruba Commission has sent out a search party in hope of a “Nick” sighting.
#13 – Considering how we had our weekly fill of embellishment watching slimball Weinstein shuffling in and out of the Courthouse milking whatever medical condition he has...it was refreshing not to be subjected to any Dakal phoney-baloney reaction to the new Sele tribe or over-the-top exaggerated embellishment for pieces of chicken on a stick.
