Another week, another blindside.
And where didshecome from?
I know, you have no idea who that is.

Honestly, it was starting to become a bit of a Clark Kent/Superman situation.
Are they the same person?
Have they ever been seen in the same place at the same time?

I felt for Genevieve.
Its hard to feel seen when you are not… well, seen.
But that was pretty much the only time we heard from her over the first three episodes.

And Sol was so offended by Romes threat (ultimatum?)
over the Shot in the Dark, that he was also insistent on voting out Rome.
I cant overstate how difficult that is.

And yet Genevieve gottwopeople to do it.
So instead of sitting back and seeing if that was true, Genevieve struck.
Why would she do that to herself?

And why would Kishanthinkshe would do that to herself?
What a lapse in what gives the impression of otherwise very sound judgment on Kishans part.
Not so much, it seems.

The playing field would have been leveled.
Until this week we didnt really know who Genevieve was.
I am a bossy jot down-A woman, she informed us.

And I dont want to go along with plans, especially if they are not in my best interest.
This week, she didnt, and established herself as a stealth undercover force in the game.
Bread to play ‘Survivor’
I got a root canal once.

Well, thats not entirely accurate.
On the same tooth.
And then I eventually just got rid of the tooth.
It was a whole thing.
It was my own personal Vietnam.
While in the throes of agony, I traversed across all of Dantes nine circles of Hell.
On an reality TV alliance naming scale?
Certainly not as embarrassing as the Friendship orQuack Pack.
I can live with it.
Especially since its not even real.
At least not to Sierra.
Fortunately, he did not do this while rapping.
This led to a tiff between Sam and Sierra in terms of if Andy should go next.
Like, it just fell out of his bag.
What is the big deal about putting it back?
I guess there were people who didnt want him to put it back so he lost it?
You’ve got red on you
TheSurvivorcreative team was on point this week.
Wow, so easy!
But there was a complication.
Because when that vine got cut, the idol slammed down to the ground and red paint spilledeverywhere.
Youve heard of being caught red-handed?
Sue was caught red-handed, red-haired, and red-faced.
And the cherry on top was her proclamation that I pulled it off!
I pulled it off!
A puzzling situation
Rome was not built in a day.
And, apparently, neither are puzzles built by Rome.
The end of this weeksSurvivorimmunity challenge was absolutely spectacular in a spectacularly bad way.
Suffice it to say, they did not finish simultaneously.
Rachel and Anika once again welcomed the other teams into the Puzzle Domination Station, obliterating the competition.
Lavo, on the other hand… Yo, someone loop that shiz as a backing track for Sams next mixtape!
during the commercial break as he solicited casting audition tapes.
Now thats digging deep!
This week was so much better.
Why oh why would you want anything that incentivizes people to vote you out?
But thats not all those instructions said.
Because that is exactly what I would have done.
The real fun kicked in when Rome got up to use his Steal-a-Vote and used it on… Kishan.
All of a sudden, lots of looks of panic.
I am absolutely freaking out, Teeny told us while voting.
And then, reality set in.
Damn, mumbled Kishan.
Thats not how I imagined.
THAT IS THE GREATNESS OFSURVIVOR!Thats it.
I called it out in a previous recap.
So many great moments.
Teeny asking Geneveive, Why?
Romes s— eating grin as he walked out of Tribal Council with that goofy hat.

Hope you enjoy, and Ill be back next week with another scoop of the crispy.
