I would imagine they're for the usual decision of whether you're going to participate in an immunity challenge or go sit at a table and pig out.

The only way Joe loses immunity now is if the pressure gets to him, Ronda Rousey style.

And yet, despite seemingly weighting them in favor of Tasha and Spencer, I feel like the challenges are designed to keep Joe in the game. This is the third straight balance challenge in a row!

Random Thoughts

Re: the challenges, I'm surprised by how many challenges they're reusing from Cagayan, since it seems as though every second challenge involves Jeff pointing out that Spencer and Tasha have done this challenge before. Makes me think they're trying to craft a redemption edit for those two, which is continually foiled…

Val finally has her two idols!

Agreed. I thought she was cute in season one, and I'm more annoyed that she felt she needed to have work done. She was fine as she was.

Kass and Savage have been voted onto the other side of the fire so far.

If so, this has to be the most bizarre winner's edit anyone has ever gotten.

I'd be all about an all-celebrity season featuring beloved character actress Margo Martindale.

As long as she's the tinder, it seems. If she doesn't dial it back, girlfriend is gonna burn too.

I would happily man up and marry this season after knocking it up, even though I'm in no financial shape to support a season and a mini-season.

Hopefully Woo comes back with Holly Hoffman to form Team HollyWoo.

I love Stephen, but his pitiable attitude really bugs me. There's absolutely no reason he should be doing this poorly in challenges. It's not even a coordination thing either. He sucks in literally every challenge, despite having trained extensively in the years since he was last on the show. Tonight was the first…

I wanna take this season to prom.

I only think one of Joe or Savage might have flipped, but not both. Besides, Joe ended up voting with Bayon anyway, which implies he gave them the heads up that he burned the Wentworth bridge with enough time for them to formulate, secure, and verify the Wentworth vote. That means Jeremy and co. should have felt safe…

It might be the best use in the age where you have to play the idol before the votes are read. But I maintain that Yul Kwon used the idol best, since he essentially used it to flip the entire game on its head in Cook Islands.

Yeah. Ciera, Wentworth and Abi could have easily written his name down, and it would have been him. Guaranteed. But I think they view Stephen as someone they could potentially work with if/when the time comes to blindside Joe. And that speaks volumes of the bonds he's made across the various alliances.

Well, he's a lawyer, you see. And he's used to getting what he wants, apparently.

Well, the good thing for Savage is that he won't end up condemning his kids to death by breaking his promise to Joe, like he inevitably would have.
