CHALLENGE/ "Going Postal"?: Food Auction, Letters from
Home - Various people get crap |
According
to Mersaydeez,
this time, a bunch of people don't run around.
Instead, Probst hands out one or more letters from home. Biancaxxx
adds that the letters will be part of an Amazon-like food auction-type
"challenge."
What does this mean for the Survivors? Well, no obvious winners
or losers (or at least, no objective "winners," most of
those left appear to be losers). That also means we're in the home
stretch, and this is Spring Training for the more complete tear-jerking
episode of the Family Visit. Happy times, happy times. Not the least
of which are because this show's almost over.

CHALLENGE/ Smashing tiles with coconuts - Ian wins |
Not
content to fill this episode with just one recycled challenge, here
the production teams pads the episode with yet another perennial
late-show challenge crutch: the plate/tile smashing festivities,
traditionally meant to reveal alliances. Except at this point, the
alliances are painfully obvious, no matter what CBS's "female
alliance" misdirection will try to claim this week.
Anyway, as for the challenge, this time the tiles are arranged in
a horizontal grid (visible on the right side of Jenn as she walks
in), and the contestants appear to smash them by tossing coconuts.
Presumably, each contestant has three or four tiles, and when all
are smashed, that person is out. We see some sort of "scoreboard"
as well, suggesting Gregg has gone from two tiles smashed, up to
three. Which is not too surprising, since Mersaydeez
tells us that Ian wins.

| BOOT/
Stephenie |
Stephenie was
the target in Ep10, and she remains so now. Mersaydeez has
Stephenie as the third member of the jury (7th place). And Biancaxxx and
yofox2 posted that Stephenie just misses the Family
Visit (presumably in the next episode). So, farewell ye last Ulong. Guess
she was pretty threatening after all.
