It's raining. It's cold. The campers are cold and wet. (boo hoo) Courtney doesn't trust Shane (who does?)

Bruce is making sure his rock garden is picture perfect.

Sally is on Exile Island, doing a little meditating. Searching for an II that doesn't exist any more.

(It's been so long I forget who some of these people are.)

Terry gets tree mail. It's a treasure hunt. Terry is hoping it's somthing to eat. They find a boat with firewood and instructions not to open anything until they meet up with the other team.

It's merge time!! Terry is hoping to pick up a player or two from the other tribe to his alliance. Terry and Austin (and Nick?) paddle to the other tribe's camp.

Um given that they are only going to be filming for 39 days maybe the figured they shouldn't make it too hard or they'd get way off schedule.

11. "Merge Time???"
Casaya is being lazy, tending the fire and eating rice. Ahoy, a boat on the horizon. Terry, Austin and Nick approach, and Casaya is eating their rice as quickly as they can so the boat peopole won't have any to eat. Casaya will great them but stay together and vote the others off one by one.

Did I see a little blur action from Nick there?

Bruce helps Austin carry a tarp onto the beach.

Oooooh, Sally arrives via speedboat, Bruce rushes out to meet her.

They open the crate. New tribe buffs and paints to design their new flag, snacks and drinks. Fruit, cheese, wine, crackers, chocolate (or were those olives?). Everyone chowing down.

Working on new shelter, using the new tarp. Terry directing. Shane doesn't think Terry has the II and next opportunity they'll vote him out. Terry is looking for two people to swing to his alliance. He's talking with Bruce. Promises Bruce F5, offers sanctuary.

Shane thinks Bruce most likely to flop, plans to make Bruce feel like their leader so he'll stay with them. Bruce realizes he's swing vote for both sides. He's game on.

Uh oh, bruce is injured. Machete knocked out one of his teeth and cut his face. He vows to be gone a short time and return the next day.

16. "New Tribe Name?"
OK, Bruce can't be injured that badly, he's designing the new tribe flag (which is better the EPMB set designers have ever come up with). Austin, Aras and Nick talking. Austin is definitely the power behind the throne, whispering in the ear of the king (Terry). Terry plotting with Shane to bring he and Cirie into their alliance. Shane thinks his alliance will prevail and vote out the Casaya. Terry talks with Cirie, she isn't buying his act, either.

Terry pushing too hard around the campfire, Shane asserting he isn't flopping, doesn't want to talk about it. (Terry is being way too pushy).

18. "Individual Immunity Challenge"
Jiffy, brak, brak, brak, how was the merge, brak, brak.

Wow, a fancy Immunity Necklace. Paris Hilton has commissioned one as we speak.

Endurance challenge. Hang from pole by hands and legs as long as you can. Last one hanging wins immunity.

I'm guessing Courtney (yoga) and Bruce (martial arts) would have an advantage here, but we will see.

Cirie first to drop. Aras drops out after 11 minutes. Bruce down at 12 minutes. Sally down. Shane asks for food and he wil drop, Shane drops anyway at 13 minutes. Danielle drops out. Courtney drops. Austin, Terry and Nick still hanging. The negotiations begin. Austin trying to convince Terry to drop.

30 minutes elapse. Austin drops out. Terry and Nick remain. 40 minutes have elapsed. Nick drops out at 46 minutes, Terry wins first individual immunity.

19. "Suddenly, strategy."
Now: if Terry could find out who Casaya was targeting after him, pass the II to that victim, and solidify the minority vote for a single target, they could turn the numbers into four on five -- but it's not enough to really help yet and it doesn't pass control, plus Terry just ain't gonna do it. Oh, well. Would have made for some interesting expressions.

OK we kind of guessed Terry would win the IC. But Nick held in the longest with him. So that does make Nick look like more of a threat than Austin.

Why haven't Terry, etc. considered that Sally may jump sides? We have not seen who Sally is talking to. She could be flipping and the guys have no idea. They are just assuming she is with them.

Terry feeling pretty sure of himself, having both the II and necklace. Still working on tribe members to create a new alliance. Bruce feeling pretty full of himself, as well, being courted by both sides. Austin hugging Bruce as they share a prayer for g-d's guidance. Austinn feels sure he's going home tonight? Nick hopes he makes it through one more vote and makes the jury.

Shane bellows and announces a Casaya meeting. Several indicate they are up in the air. They bring up Nick and Austin's names as the bootee at Tribal Council. The La Mina remnants are tiffed off at Shane's arrogance (who among us aren't?). They propose him. Shane is convinced he will be able to Pagong the La Mina tribe.

(Oh the dastardly editing of EPMB, we don't know what will happen!!)

Can't Terry also give his II away to someone else after the vote? If so, and if the 4 vote for Shane. Even if one of Terry's buddies gets the vote, if he gives him the II afterward, Shane goes. Hmmm.

Yeah it makes me wonder, too... wonder if there is a rule (unshown to us) that the II cannot be transferred to someone else after the vote is revealed -- it's only to save oneself?

23. "Tribal Council"
Questions from Jiffy how to deal with merge, how to create alliances, how do you decide to stay with.

Discussion of immunity challenge. Nick held on because he felt he would be on the block tonight. Austin also felt he would be on the block. Opted to drop off so he wouldn't appear as strong as he is. Jiffy brings up fact several people dropped when no food rewards existed. Shane asserts their group will stick together no matter what. Aras concerned the II is still out there. Courtney and Cirie would be shocked if someone from their group flipped tonight.

Votes. Nick votes. Courtney votes. Austin votes for Shane. Terry votes. Shane votes. Nick, ARas, Danielle. (missed a few in there, sorry)

Jiffy reads the votes. Shane, Shane, Shane, Shane, Nick, Nick, Nic (sic), Nick (tied), Nick, Nick. Nick is voted out.

But, you know, Shane has to be p*ssing himself to have received votes from the entire other team.

I think Austin was making a last ditch to save both him and Nick. If the others were planning to vote Nick and heard Austin was the strongest. Some of them might have tried to signal to each other to change the vote from Nick to Austin. They may have gotten crossed signals and split the vote and then Shane would have left. If they were already planning to vote out Austin there was no loss in him trying that.

When are they going to learn that when they act c*cky at TC it often comes back to haunt them. The 6 were so proud of themselves. But they seem to forget that only one can win. And the only guarantee they have is they will finish #7. There are 6 of them and if the last of the others wins the IC then one of them has to go with 7 left. Nothing to get too excited about.

In the recap and the Episode 6 previews were for the rest of the season. The physical challenge might be next week and the medical evacuation might be the week after that. Or they could both be on the same week. We're not completely sure, yet.

Just had to comment on Nick's closing comments. They were motivational in nature -- inviting all twenty-somethings to go for the brass ring, so to speak. Very admirable from a twenty-something. I wonder if his exposure to Dan and Terry had something to do with that speech?

Exactly how does the "hidden" immunity idol work?

Do they revote and exclude the person or does the person with the next highest number of votes automatically leave?

i.e. Would Shane have gone if Terry had given Nick the hidden immunity idol or would they have revoted excluding Terry and Nick?

Can't remember.

Thanks

And to answer the question above, I am quite sure that if it's passed to someone else that must happen prior to the vote. Can you imagine if Terry could just hand it to Nick after the vote was revealed? Way too easy to plan that one out.

37. "Terry blows it bigtime"
Terry made a huge misplay at TC IMHO.

The whole point of the hidden immunity idol is that it's a nuke. If you try and vote out the guy who has it, it blows up in your face, and instead, you lose one of your own alliance members (because one of them will have the next highest number of votes). And probably the leader of your alliance at that.

But the thing about nuclear weapons is this: in order for them to be a real deterrent, the other side has to be absolutely convinced that you have the nuke. And there was no better way of doing that, and sowing doubt and confusion, than passing immunity to Nick.

If Terry had done this, he'd be saying "I have the nuke. C'mon, try and vote me out," in the strongest possible terms. After all, if he doesn't have it, he's risking his entire game.

Consider the consequences:

First of all, by passing immunity to Nick, it's unlikely that anyone will vote for him, either at that TC or at a future one, until they have the numbers to vote him off, and cast enough votes for both him and a 2nd place candidate not in their gang. That gets him several rounds of safety, whereas keeping things a secret only gets him one extra round when he fires the nuke (he's gonna get targeted as soon as he fails to win immunity). Realistically, the fact that Terry is know to have the nuke means that the Six are much more likely to fracture, because they all want to make sure that they aren't going to be the target when the nuke goes off.

Secondly, now the plans of the Six are all messed up. Who do they vote for now? Do they have a contingency plan in place? Are they allowed to decide on a new victim right there at TC? Is there a possibility they'll screw up and split their vote? Yeah, they'll probably go for Austin, but even so, Terry is no worse off.

There's no real downside. If he gives up immunity and they don't believe him, and all vote him out, then he fires the nuke, it's a 5-4 game, and he's still got a shot. If he doesn't, then has to fire it next TC, then it's a 5-3 game. I'd much rather be in a 5-4 game; only one guy has to swing to change the game.

In fact, there's an argument to be made that even if Terry didn't have the hidden immunity, he should bluff that he does. Even if someone on the other team has it, he can still bluff that there's more than one. Doubt and uncertainty are his friends.

Terry didn't figure this out, though the preview indicates that he does in the next episode.

What if he just miscalculated? I'm may be going too far off but what if they all thought Austin was on the block? Austin is a bright guy. I cannot explain why he revealed acting weak during IC or why he prayed with Bruce telling him in effect that he was at peace with leaving. Trying to draw votes? Remember, during Casaya's last huddle, Shane was pushing Austin. Austin told us while voting that he knew Shane was directing votes towards him. The agreement between Terry and Austin could've been that having immunity, Terry gave Austin the HII for this TC and then gets it back. We saw how desperate he got. This would've been a good back up plan.

Maybe Terry had a plan all along. He's got the HII and knows coming into the merge La Mina is out numbered 6-4. First thing he did was go to just about everyone and make 'deals'. I had a flashback to Boston Rob! Then the Casaya idiots call their 'meeting' and continue their smugness at TC. Agree with volfan on this...arrogant arrogant arrogant. It's going to come bite Casaya in their behinds sooner than later I hope. Can't say I blame the rest of La Mina for being just a wee bit ticked off!

Next week it appears Terry decides ok Casaya you want to play it that way.....guess what I have. Now it's up to YOU to beat me in the IC. Sure it's taking a chance but other than a million bucks what does he have to lose? Terry was probably with Shane long enough to know he's a loose cannon and all I can say is when Shaneboy finds out Terry has the HII I hope the man goes ballistic...again.

Could this be how Terry manages to get an alliance with a few people? If not then he continues on an IC run.

The trouble here is that Terry had 2 guys to protect and only 1 immunity necklace to give away, so giving it to either Nick or Austin tonight would have been as useless as teats on a boar pig. Now with Nick gone, if Terry wishes to do so, especially since he's spilling the beans about having the EIII on the next episode, he can protect Austin all the way till the final 4 if he goes on the spoiled immunity run, because none of the Casayas will be too anxious to try to boot Terry for fear they might be the one that the remaining La Minas target with their votes. So if Austin gets the gate next ep, it tells me that either one of two things happens: 1) Terry fails to win the next IC, and must keep the idol to save his a$$, or 2) Terry has already gone into full-up "look out for #1" mode after his miserable failure to get any Casayas to flip, and won't be trying to save anybody but himself. He could also be trying to bait the Casayas into voting against him, but I don't think any of them will be that stupid. So what I expect will be that the Casayas will begin turning on each other sooner than we might think, given the spoilers that are out there, and we could very well see CO and Wickchix turn up full of baloney before this sucker's over.

Most likely, yes, if his intent is to protect them -- though there's a chance of a screwup. But the main reason for doing it is to prove that he has the "nuke" without actually having to show it.

If everyone knows he's got it (it's unclear if he's allowed to just show it), then he's got immunity for several TCs at least. The nuke is most valuable when you DON'T have to use it.

Did they say that the II can be given to someone else or can it only be used by the one that found it?

Both Hidden and Regular immunity can be transferred prior to the tribal vote.

actually i believe the regular immunity must be transferred before the vote but the HIDDEN immunity can be done afterwards. recall that jeff said to nick after the votes were read(something along the lines of) "nick, you have not been to exile island, so you cannot have the hidden immunity idol. unless someone is willing to give it to you (shot of TD), please bring me your torch."

terry doesn't have to reveal that he's giving the HI to whomever until the votes are read.

Actually Jeff said ...unless someone has passed it to you.

This pretty much means just what elroy was stating.
The immunities both must be "transferred" before the vote.
However, with the hidden immunity it doesn't need to be "revealed" until after the votes are read.

Sigh. I forgot how mind-numbingly boring Pagonging can be.

Stupid, stupid Shane. Yeah, you don't have to worry about those four folks voting you off. But three of them will be on the jury. Since you have to get at least 4 of the 7 jury members to vote for you to win the game, pissing off three people this early does not bode well for your chances to win the game. He's setting himself up to be the perfect person to take to the final 2. I think Aras has figured that out, which is why the two of them are so tight.

Spoilers aside, it's so obvious that Shane doesn't win, since we've seen so many of the remaining players willing to vote his backside out of the game as quickly as they can.

Maybe I'm not remembering correctly, but I thought that whoever had the EII could not only use the idol to protect himself, but he got to choose which person to send packing. Not just the second highest vote-getter.


Question--can he use the EII more than once? Up to the final 4? I'm not clear on that. Must be not or he would have saved Nick last night.

Anyone else suprised to see Aras, Yoga King, strong athlete, drop second in the IC endurance challenge? ....and he's supposed to win the endurance challenge at F3? Hmmmmmm? Do you think he jumped on purpose as he was secure in his position? Personally, I was really suprised to see him go so quickly!

It was an obvious dive -- the final three were all La Mina men who knew their asses were on the line. Aras, Shane, Danielle, Courtney (who was rather lackadaisal about the whole thing) and Cirie all knew they had nothing to worry about, and I'd bet that Bruce figured he wasn't going to sweat it too much either.

I thought it was an obvious dive by Aras too. A yoga instructor couldn't hang on for more than 11 minutes? Please.

Regarding the posts up above about Terry giving the regular immunity to Nick to signal that he had the HII, I think Terry's plan for this Ep was getting two people to switch sides. He wanted to hang on to the HII for as long as possible without revealing he had it, so his first order of business was to try to get people to switch. If he had been successful, he could put the HII on the back burner without worrying until very late in the game.

But since that plan failed, he obviously realizes in the next episode that he needs to communicate that he has it.
